Except it has nearly double the sound, you'll draw more zombies than it's worth in my experience, the lighter weapons, AKS-74 or M4s are way better at zombie duty than the AKM.

Duping. Is it wrong? Yes. Is it being done en-masse? Yes.

What kills you? I can't blame you if you die to players playing solo, getting destroyed by zombies though, you may want to work on that, if stealth isn't your thing, run through town and collect all the zombies, run them through a house with two entrances, and run to the good loot spots free of zombie. You may die to player a bit more that way though.

Honestly selling ammo is almost a waste of time, there are much ''ahem'' safer ways of getting it right now.

I would keep the M9SD, it's me second choice after the G17, the silencer makes it very valuable.

I agree with you OP, I also want to shoot the dogs, I just hope you can eat them...

Lets assume for a second that most players don't have thermal optics. How can they defend themselves against snipers? Well they can check the most common spots up close, but any smart sniper will know more discrete locations. They can scan the area with sniper scopes and binoculars, but lets be honest, at 500m +, a ghillie sniper could easily be missed depending on the foliage. At night, there is nothing anyone not using NVGs or rangefinders can do against snipers, and since they are ''rare'' most people probably don't have them. Now where to snipers like to be? I can think of a few. -anywhere in a big city -stary sobor military tents -NW airfield -balota airfield -heli crash sites What do these places have in common? They spawn good loot. Now why can't people just avoid them? Because the game doesn't work that way. You want the M4 CCO SD, you want the NVGs, the AS50, the ghillie suits, etc... No one is satisfied with their AKS-74, M1911 and ALICE pack, and they shouldn't be, looking for better gear drives this game forward. What else do these places have in common? They are exposed. In the city there are any number of places a sniper can hide, especially if they use 3rd person to look over ledges. Airfields have ATCs, hangars and barracks, all places with exposed one way in one way out areas. Heli crashes have almost 360 degrees of danger. What we have is a situation where snipers have places people are guaranteed to be that are super exposed, and that even a decently geared group (2-4 people with AKs and and m24s for example) have little way to avoid deaths going for better gear. I never saw a L85 before I started to play with a group of 10+ people. I have yet to find one myself, it's the only practical way to counter a sniper at distances of over 500 meters. Without stealth the sniper is nothing, but with stealth the sniper is everything. I see it as an all-or-nothing play style, except in most situations the sniper has it all, and only in a few does he have nothing. I would make snipers and the ammo for them much rarer than they are now, I have found 20+ DMR mags in the last day alone. Even with 50% miss rate that amount of ammo would last two snipers until their own deaths, with ammo to spare. People have mentioned duping 50cal ammo and things like that, but if people couldn't use the m107 they would use the DMR or m24, to nearly the same effect. Nothing anyone can do about it while duping is in the game, but I think the spawn chances of sniper rifles should be reduced to that of the L85, since the two weapons classes balance each other out so well. Just an idea.

Even with only 1 unknown player on the server, I've never gone to NW airfield and not been shot at. It's a magnet for trouble.

Wait until there is no one on the server. Then loot that sh/t.

I carry M4 SD M9SD and various ammo, food and meds. My tent has a G36, NVGs and even more ammo, food and meds. Clan tents have lots of everything.

I also have never seen a CZ. Not even on another player.

Yeah that was fcked up man, didn't you say you were afk as well?

Fal is okay, more a novelty because of the ammo. Unless you use certain techniques, then it's not a problem. M14 is just good all around, except for the sound. Unless you see a lot of players, both will put you in trouble with the zeds. I leave both at camp, the only gun for me is the M4 CCO SD.

DayZ is a flawless mod on an even more flawless game, ARMA 2.

Amen to that, we have 1 or more of almost everything at base camp.

Are they? My clan mates are constantly getting infections. Regardless they are rare, and may be restored to functionality in the future.

I can match the NVG and offer you an L85, AS50 or FAL with the NV scope. I won't be on until later today, so any trade can't happen right away.

I may have a L85 and AS50 I can trade for an SVD camo, I'll pm you soon.

Even w/o duping you can get lots of weapons. Our group has people playing almost 24h a day, you get a lot of loot very quickly.

I want bombs, as many as you have, name your price, server and time. There are some buildings I have grown tired of...

I sure wouldn't seek it out though, especially since I wouldn't use them on that server, I want to spook my friends by blowing up buildings near them.

My ISP limits my internet to a certain amount of GBs per month. Since I started playing DayZ, I have had a huge increase the the amount of GBs I am uploading, and I am wondering if DayZ is the cause. Has anyone had similar experiences?

Quebec, Canada. It's silly how much it costs, but since I watch all my tv shows online I don't pay for cable, so it works out okay.

Isn't that cheating?

Other ISPs that offer unlimited charge more for the same speed. I pay 66.50/month for 120 GB at 30 down, 3 up. The same speed costs 80 with an unlimited service provider, and so far 120GB has been enough.
