Start with the AK on your back, then place it on the ground (vicinity), then drag & drop your desired handguard over the AK on the ground. The old handguard should be swapped out into an empty inventory slot. I accidentally did this ONE time, I could be completely wrong.. good luck mate

Stop the off-topic bullshit I'm fucking sick of hearing it. From both parties. Can't you think of anything constructive to add to the discussion? Piss off. It's times like these I'm ashamed to be a gamer at all, sounds to me like DayZ is heading in EXACTLY the right direction. Please graveyard this topic until there is actually something tangible on the PS4 front, as this "discussion" has degenerated into little girls slinging their nappies.

I can appreciate this statement. From a development perspective, indeed it is a blink of an eye. If ANY iteration of the game so far was even remotely close to playable, I could see myself investing more time/money/computer upgrades in order to continue playing & enjoying this unique concept. How many more years will it be before you can actually go into a games shop & buy a copy of DayZ for PS4? What about the full-version on steam? Two years? Four? At this rate, with all the grand, sweeping announcements I think that the 2020 prediction from earlier posts is probably bang on. By then PS4 will be old news, and PCs will probably be dying off as the market for tablet, smart & wireless platforms explodes. Better start working on a touch-screen port while you're at it devs.

With the announcement of DayZ for PS4 I'm out. It's turned into this bloated, plodding, fetid beast with dollar-signs for eyes, and Dean is moving onto other pursuits in a few months when SA (apparently) is going beta. Game's in my steam library anyway so I might check back in after a few years have passed - however currently this is painful to watch unfold. Call me an old fart or whatever, but I loved the ARMA II mod when it was underground, buggy as hell, & cool. Now it's just ...well, buggy as hell. The community here and in-game WAS equally as cool too, I really miss those days. I guess I've been reflecting a lot lately, thinking back from- 2012 - present, and I don't like the direction this is going. Respect that my opinions are my own, so please don't ask why, or try to convince me otherwise, I'm just done. DayZ has become a filthy capitalist, cigar chomping, single-malt guzzling, pseudo high-roller. I think I'm going to be ill

Lone wolf here & I wear the gas mask, as I've had it for ages now. I'd be mildly annoyed if someone accused me of server/airfield hopping. Thankfully all you scrubs are rubbish at this whole KoS thing.

What actions are your TAB and P keys assigned to? It sounds like these actions are locking out the arrow keys for movement. I can run around just fine with WASD and TAB as my push-to-talk, it sounds to me like a limitation on the arrow keys.

I'd like a gold plated shitter but it's just not on the cards now is it?

Your character is being reset because you are 'combat logging.' Look it up with the search function on the forums, you might learn something. This is working as intended & is NOT a bug.

I've noticed a lot of "owner" characters in servers recently, so I'm guessing it's defaulted to the users/XXXX windows name. You can click on your name when the DayZ splash screen comes up & change it there. I couldn't get a cursor to pop up but just click & start hitting delete/backspace - you can change it.

If I was feeling creative I'd make a haiku for each series. Instead I'll let you guys just think of your own :) EDIT: Epic style & imagery, it has to be said! But it just made me think of haiku's with the contrasting mood of the fourth strip...

Personally I'm kinda fond of this idea for the selfish reason that I don't get to pour as many hours into DayZ as I would like & as others do. Thus my knowledge of the games workings is poor in comparison, but I receive a gratifying surge of euphoria upon discovering something new for myself, and it usually happens when one is thrust into the unexpected. Perhaps you could set aside a portion of the map for testers, like one/two small towns and immediate surrounds, (Gvozdno was a brilliant suggestion - trees, fields, rolling hills, decent sized town way up north) with stipulation there will be testing going on in this area & that it will be defended ferociously. Then you just get twenty guys in the trees around your testing area plugging anyone who's naughty. On second thought if you could get 20 guys together you'd pretty much have a 'mobile testing solution' once geared - no-one's gonna take on a squad of that size ambiguously making their way around the map.

Cleaned it up a bit Electi, hope you don't mind, but pretty much my thoughts. This was never even an issue when the game was a mod of ARMA II. Now that DayZ has become 'commercial' all the twitch FPS players bought into it & suddenly we have a 1PP vs. 3PP war. How the shit do you even know when someone has killed you "exploiting" third-person? What does it matter? If you die, you're dead. It's DayZ; respawn, cry, bitch on the forums, do what you have to do, etc, but get over it though. Pointless argument is pointless. You're never going please everyone because kids NEED to whine about something. Perfect example is BF4. You say "head-glitching," back in my day that was called "taking cover." Example two. I play solo 90% of the time. Surely this would entitle me to report clans who exploit teamspeak to call up mates & hunt me down across map then? Well they have the god-like ability to whisper sweet nothings mysteriously to friends 7km away, while I, unfortunately, cannot. Sounds like a pretty fucking epic cheat to me. Basically, you died in a game with guns that is competitive & you have to blame anything but yourself. While I agree it's good to discuss topics, this one has been beaten into a fine red mist. Leave me to my 3PP servers & go shoot each other in your "hardcore ultra-realistic 15 degree field of view 1PP servers." So immersive :facepalm:

I really wanna delete the internet right now.

What? People have conversations in this game?

Get better at the game.
