Level of Weaponry Available (Poll)
Shadyfizzle replied to ThatSwoleGuy's topic in General Discussion
Windage is probably incredibly hard to implement into a game, that would mean making random wind conditions all over the map and such. I know that NOAA uses supercomputers to model atmospheric conditions -
Desert eagles are not standard issue to ANY military and would make for terrible survival pistols unless there were a bunch of african warlords with gold plated deagles running around

Level of Weaponry Available (Poll)
Shadyfizzle replied to ThatSwoleGuy's topic in General Discussion
I agree, pistols and shotguns should be the mainstay. A few people should have longer range hunting/sniper style rifles. Even fewer should have automatic m4s/aks. and there should be literally no or maybe 1 .50 cal in any server at a time -
Level of Weaponry Available (Poll)

No offense but you must be a terrible shot... the 7.62x51, 30-06, and .308 all have effective ranges of around 800 m. With a proper scope you can hit 12 inch plates pretty damn reliably... -
Except is israeli made, but i agree with you nonetheless

I'm saying if they make r700s and other hunting rifles more common or the standard gun in game, they need to make long range optics very rare. If every rifle came with a long range optic, the game would deteriorate into what we all hate: a bunch of bandits sitting on hills sniping people Not to mention the average person probably doesn't know good firing technique or how to properly zero/sight in their long range scope -

Thats what im saying, if they make these guns readily available people will be able to pick off others at 500+ meters easily which is exactly what we are trying to avoid. And yea i know they don't come with iron sights which is why it would be so much better to have people blindly firing these off at each other at close ranges! -
You have some good ideas, i think WarZ had something where you had to wait a day to respawn if you died? but you had like 4 characters. I go agree things should be more broken and rarer, particularly guns. Most people should be using melee weapons or crappy pistols The whole XP idea is tricky, as of now there is a real life XP system. Someone like me who has played the mod for hundreds of hours has more XP at the game than someone just picking it up, as a result its easier for me to survive

How long Day Z to be released on PS4?
Shadyfizzle replied to AK47 (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
Im pretty sure they never confirmed a port because it would just be unfeasible since you cannot support the key bindings on a ps4 controller, not to mention the ps4 processor is extremely lacking in terms of processing power needed to run the game -
You can switch firing modes from single to auto, also i have been experiencing a bug when shooting from prone that causes the bullet to impact the ground directly in front of the muzzle.

Having too many r700's and Cz's which are high powered rifles would turn the game into a big sniper fest if scopes were readily available. Now having people duking it out in the street with those guns and no sights? that would be fun -
This is a terrible idea, i award you no beans and may god have mercy on your soul
-
The solution already exists. The combat timer/log out timer from the mod of about 30 secs combined with the cooldown period to switch servers from breaking point. This eliminates ghosting and makes server hopping for loot very inconvenient. Of course you can always alt tab out or close your program, but then you should be left in game for 30 secs or whatever the countdown timer is. Something like this, well the cool down timer between servers, probably wont be implemented until they figure out loot re-spawns since server hopping isn't completely unjustified

find yourself a magazine bigger than 10 rounds, find yourself an RIS rail, find yourself a pristine acog, go hunt also find some matching ttsko pants and a camo bandanna. I find his lack of canteens disturbing...

How often have your shot somebody because you don't want to loose everything?
Shadyfizzle replied to roguetrooper's topic in General Discussion
If im in a military loot area, rule of thumb is its KoS. If im in the wilderness or in a random town or city ill run around some corners and yell through direct chat. -
Anyone else notice when firing from the prone position with an m4, there is a ricochet sound/graphic that occurs right in front of your barrel? im not sure if the bullet is actually impacting the floor in front or if the bullet still goes where i am aiming with that little ricochet bug...
-
you really shouldn't be able to mount any other scope to the mosin but the pu. The SOS scope shouldn't be mountable to the mosin since it lacks the appropriate rail
-
Ill put it this way, I haven't seen the helmet saving any lives....if you are in a scenario where it might make a difference, chances are you're gonna get hit in the torso and die anyway

AMMO should be Rare like in Resident Evil 1
Shadyfizzle replied to gamer222's topic in General Discussion
This is actually a good idea, Im sure theyll adjust the loot tables, but right now i have 3 60 round coupled mags and a 40 rounder. If ammo is rarer to find chances are people will think twice about shooting at other people. At least it will force people to engage others smarter or more tactically -
Theoretically yes, probably will be implemented down the road, but right now I don't know. Between hit discrepancies on the server end or lag between players, theres no way to know besides lining people up with and without helmets and shooting them in the head...I personally dont wear them as i dont think they actually offer protection yet and i dont plan on getting shot in the head
-
Idk, ACOGs and Loopys are both pretty damn expensive
-
Ive found quarters of maps, NE, NW,SE,SW but ive also found full halves, E,W, havent found a full map yet...

Post here if new and need help (in-game)
Shadyfizzle replied to ZombieGuy23's topic in New Player Discussion
You're just north of Pusta, which is the south east of the map...Idk why you want to go to the airfield, there is nothing there ATM that you couldn't easily find in another military loot.
