Fear The Amish replied to Miquinei's topic in General Discussion
Hey Combine your in CQF group of us go down to Berezino pretty regularly for "Bandit Sweep and Clears"... Gotta try and give the fresh spawns a chance. -
There are already blown humvees all over the place, also the trucks are Deuce and 1/2's. While the trucks could be mothballed surplus pulled out the humvee's are not.

To all of those who yell ALPHA at any sort of suggestion
Fear The Amish replied to hannibaldaplaya's topic in General Discussion
ITS ALPHA!!... sorry couldn't help myself. -
Production time being one (anything that uses multiple materials like the SKS/Mosin) take longer to produce. Two a change in the distance of battle... In World War 1 the average engagement range was 100-200 meters in World war 2 this shortened to 75-150 meters Currently engangement ranges are 25-75 meters So a high rate of fire + smaller size = better designed weapon for modern battle. But there is a reason anyone that specializes in engaging at long distances (Sniper/Recon groups) use semi auto and bolt action rifles to this day, and that is simply because they will always be more accurate. EDIT: also M4 is not the "assault rifle of choice" that falls to the AK-47 which is cheaper and more readily available. Also it can survive anything there is a reason it is on the flags of several countries and not the M16.

Why are they adding sewing machines , and not fixing the game?
Fear The Amish replied to FrankWhite's topic in General Discussion
the FPS drop is directly associated with a memory leak... that can be fixed by getting rid of any pre-patch gear. Me and some buddies were running ops with CQF second someone logged in and caused whole group to have FPS drop had them go to another server get naked and come back. FPS issue was resolved. -
man we have CQF Op's with 15-20 members working together. Usually they are Bandit sweep and clears, or bambi rescues along the coast.

I have fired several Mosin's in my time and found them to be very accurate. I would rate them similar to a Lee Enfield or a Springfield when it comes to accuracy. There is a reason they were used as the go to USSR sniper rifle up until the 60's.

Is Spy Infiltration wrong ethics/cheating
Fear The Amish replied to Dragor69's topic in General Discussion
alright i will stop using TS the second they fix the walkie talkies to make them usable as in real world walkies. Me and my friends i play with will then use mic clicks to communicate with. Until they work correctly though i will continue to use TS. -
Loot respawns need to happen WITHOUT restart!
Fear The Amish replied to Kukui's topic in General Discussion
This i love the current loot mechanics. -
Well i own an SKS and my friend owns an M4 while. While he can put out more rounds down range then i can in a short period of time. My rounds will always hit almost exactly were i want them. For pure accuracy at medium range 200-300 meters the SKS is hands down a much better rifle. Also with the 7.62 x 39 is a MAN STOPING round, as opposed to the 5.56 which while yes will drop you takes a few more hits to take you completely out of a fight. This is exactly why we have these three guns in right now, each has a niche it excels at. If i am sitting on a hill providing overwatch i am going to want a Mosin with a LRS, and Bipod. If i am at Medium range covering a firing lane i want an SKS with a PU. If i am CQB i want an M4 with CQB settup. As you already pointed out your Remington is a much better choice for longer range fire in real life, just like the Mosin is a much better long range option in DayZ.

There are two states were you regen blood one is slow and doesn't show the healing tag the other is high and does. Difference is time with healthy tag you heal most wounds in matter of minutes, other it takes 20-30 or more.
-
I know that is what i do ever big patch come back a week before its supposed to hit to get the rust off then play new patch for testing and bug reporting. Then leave for a few weeks rinse and repeat.
-
sounds like it isn't your game and that is fine.
-
yeah there are the 2 bases on the West side of map, and the buildings in Zelena. I rarely go to Balota or NWAF because of those. Also i can never find a mosin that isn't bugged into a wall or something... its rather frustrating. <_<

We NEED some way to identify heros and bandits.
Fear The Amish replied to 1S1K-Airborne's topic in General Discussion
so samething can happen like what happened in the MOD were people just farmed for the Hero skin and then used that player as bait.... -
KOS, because you play too much Simcity
Fear The Amish replied to Vixoran's topic in General Discussion
I think their needs to be a map made to show "danger zones" basically make the whole coast red, then go to orange just beyond it then yellow beyond that. No green zones just "yeah you can probably still get killed here" and then Zelena, NWAF, and NEAF as big red circles also. -
i always perfered the Triad approach.... Overwatch - This guy when your raiding has the long range sight and some form of sniper rifle posted up on a hill with plenty of vision. Needs to be in place for a few minutes before entry. His job is simple call out persons/locations of interest. Should never focus on one spot and needs to constantly have his eyes open. uses a mosin. CQB - Equiped with CQB weapon and is used for first entry during sweep/clear. In SA goes in with a pistol/shotgun. Mid range - Mid range weapon backs up CQB on sweep clear starts out covering alternate fields of fire while CQB is breeching. In SA goes in with an M4. Everyone carries a little bit of everything but anything key to the groups survival sticks with overwatch. Also anything besides guns/ammo that can be carried is left with Overwatch when doing a sweep of a town (to give the others more space for looting).

How I have stayed alive for 6 weeks on a single character
Fear The Amish replied to knar33's topic in General Discussion
Favorite movie there... Also you can survive alone... just be very careful i have a Mosin with a long distance scope and i watch a place for about 20 minutes from half a mile away before i even go in. Basically pretend your person is you and you MUST survive. - Never EVER skylight yourself This means when you are walking along some were at a heightened elevation walk about 3/4's of the way up. Never walk along the crest. -If there is cover to move in always use it. So if you can get to place A by running across a field or take a longer way by going through a forest always go through the forest. -If the only option is the field RUN across while zig zagging. If you aren't running across a field always move in prone. - When coming into a town find a place that you can observe the town from a distance from cover. Spend about 5-10 minutes observing it, use this time to check windows doors and surrounding area. While doing this plan which buildings you are going to hit and locate exits and avenues of fire. - When you finally hit the town move quickly get what you want and get out. If you go in a building from the front door always exit from the back and vice-versa. I am neither a hero nor a bandit, if i want to go into town and spot someone they never will know what killed them. -
i remember in early days of mod on our clan server we invited 3 other clans. What ended up happening is every few days when we would go on supply runs (1 bus + 2 atv's) we would randomly run into another clan on a run, and a massive fire fight would ensue. Basically anyone that wasn't on the run would jump in cars and come flying to the city this was happening at. It was probably the most fun i ever had in that game when you had these firefights pulling in players from all corners of the map. I am definitly pro vehicles because this sort of player driven game play is impossible without them.

Question is the title.
-
oh i don't coast hunt... I only kill when they dont respond to me. I always ask politely first for them to put away weapon and reach for the sky. If they do this i hand cuff them and proceed to loot them. If they make me laugh or aren't jerks i don't loot them but give them stuff. But if they do not respond or fail to respond promptly i give them a lead lobotomy.

Would be funny if some one waxes him then captures the kid and forces him into bambi fight club.
