Dis guy never played Stalker.

What's interesting is helicopters make you own the map. Planes would make for fast travel when you actually manage to get one going you're so limited on where you can safely go with it.

You got me. I'll admit right now I wouldn't be able to stand carrying an oversized hiking pack filled with bags of rice, multiple vests and sets of clothing with anything you can think of stuffed into the pockets stuffed into more clothing and vests with an equivalent of a spam can of rifle ammunition thrown around inside (all this on my back) with ammunition and first aid kids stuffed into my pants and yet another vest that I'm actually wearing with more ammunition bulging from the pockets, a fire axe on my back, maybe some more bags of rice inside of my vest somehow, a helmet and some soaked boots. I'm sure I've missed things.

The only time the game was not a "TDM douchebag convention" was at the very start when people were running around with revolvers and nobody knew what to do so we all clumped up in big packs. The people who don't shoot others as soon as they see them will stay the same. The people who shoot others regardless of wanting something from the corpse will still shoot.

Of course, but the general view on them is that they're an awful rifle that's poorly made and fit only for a slav potato farmer. I like to show that good ones exist. It's like saying Norinco or Century Arms products are awful when you can have very good examples and very poor examples. My mosin just happens to be from a time when you wanted to produce as fast as possible to meet logistic requirements.

Mine consistently shoots right on at 300m. If we're talking about the model, my 91/30 built in 1943 during the real big production push is an example of one that's perfectly fine. Don't parrot what you hear other people say. However, the double tap W that literally everyone uses to move around with is a full out "Oh shit I need to run as fast as possible" sprint. I know that standing unsupported I wouldn't be able to keep steady after sprinting like that. After sprinting really hard, going prone and bracing your supporting hand on the ground or crouching with your elbow braced on your knee you'd be very steady.

What happens is the AR family is more effected by carbon buildup. AK functions very differently. Skip to :30 and some Japanese cartoons will show you what I mean. This is where the whole "unreliable" thing comes from.

It'll still be more of an inconvenience than anything. The biggest threat is other players, plinking someone and then looting their corpse after you loop around a couple times with zombies is always going to be the way to go. That or just pop them and run for fun.

I agree that life isn't fair, however we (rather, the devs) shouldn't base game changes on "muh balance" as though it's a competitive game. Having some weapons naturally perform better than others is something I'm 100% for. Having the game tell you you got a random penalty as you just respawned when that other guy who respawned up the beach 5m from you got lucky and has no random penalties would not be a sensible thing to add.

Not at all. In the mod with enfields even though the joke has always been calling it the dinner bell you never had an instance where people would leave the other alone unless they would have left the other guy alone in the first place. It always went See person --> Shoot person --> Run around and lose/kill whatever zeds came to you --> Circle back around and loot whatever from the guy and leave. OR even be like many and leave the body because you had no intention of taking anything from him in the first place. You just want to shoot someone. If you honestly think that more zombies will be a deterrent you're a bit naive. It'll be more of an inconvenience, that is all.

I've never been 'ghosted' but that's because I've adopted a playstyle to counter it whether I like playing this way or not. I just set a goal to get in and out ASAP and if I lose contact with the guy I've been fighting I just GTFO.

Not to hurt your feelings but I think having a random allergy or get the short end of the stick and spawn in as an overweight unfit person are awful ideas. The only people who it would affect are the ones who try to play the game as authentically as possible, everyone else would go "Oh, I can't run far? Time to jump off a ledge". Even for the allergies your character would at least know they have a food allergy after living 25+ years to common foods. No way in hell should you eat a can of tuna and your character goes "OH MY GOD, I AM ALLERGIC TO TUNA". Again, they'll go take a dive off a building. The issue with almost all of your suggestions is they're based on luck of the draw. If anything the character should acquire the knowledge to fly, rather than our group going "Hey dude, go kill yourself until you spawn as a pilot. We need one."

Remember that zombie hordes will change nothing. People will still shoot you at the first opportunity, they just have to deal with zombies afterwards.

The only way to keep your tent safe in the mod is to find a clever spot for it. Or the other way all the streamers did it was hide them under lakes.

The problem with helicopters is back in the mod if my group of ~4+ got a helicopter running we owned the server until we got tired or bored. Want some action? Let's drop everyone at the edge of an airfield or city. Everyone died? Whatever, time to pick them up in the helicopter and go somewhere else. Let's comb the edge of the map or thick woods we know of for vehicles and tents. Oh hey, we found every helicopter on the server and flattened or burned more tents than we can count in the span of an hour.

Notes that have writing on them should have the picture of the note changed from blank to having black scribbles all over it so you can tell if there's writing on it even without opening your inventory.

Now now, we don't need to lie here.

Like an EOD suit or an Exoskeleton? I am getting hot I am getting hot I am getting hot I am getting hot I am dying of heat exhaustion

Remember that the SVD is the same calibre as the Mosin. While we're at it we should really have the SVT40 in as another rifle that shares 7.62x54

I want to filter to see all the servers called things like "broken loot spawns laggy server do not join" and "no loot bad server do not join".

You guys are talking about it like there's some special skill to controlling your body. Go up to some random person and see if they have the elite skill of "can you hold your arms still?"

I don't like that concept. We shouldn't have things play around muh balance. If a weapon can do something, it should be able to do it ingame. This isn't some competitive arena shooter.

Hang on a sec, where are we? Hey, the suggestions subforum.

You're telling me people appearing when your character can actually see them breaks your immersion while your vision comes from a magical floating camera behind 'you'. Risk vs Reward is the bread and butter of 1st person. Oh geez, there's a guy in a firefight with you. You just hit the corner of a building. Are you going to take a peek and risk taking a bullet to the forehead? Are you going to try to aim and shoot? Where did he go? Will he be looking at you when you peek out? Did he move somewhere to get at your side? You just don't know because you can't see around that corner without actually looking around that corner.

What you're saying is it'd be unrealistic to make you unable to see people you shouldn't be able to see. I see him but he truly cannot see me is very broken. If you compare firefights in first and third person, people are very cautious when they know they can get shot while taking a peek. 3rd person firefights grind to a halt while you wait on the other guy to make a move first.
