Hence why it asks what people think will happen not if they know if the akm will suck. Even then some people such as GEWs know the akm will suck by looking at the games files and seeing the insane 27 moa accuracy.

4 moa for a mosin that seems about right with surplus ammo.

It is a stupid unrealistic feature. The feature should only be available if you have a shovel. Hopefully once physics are added you have to physically hide the body by picking it up and dragging it to a secluded area. No magical melting into the ground.

For me it completely is. Anything that removes skill and puts chance and luck to replace is game breaking for me

As it should be. Real life balances itself. The mosin Nagant should not be more accurate than an M4 or sks yet without realism it is in dayz.

What happened was the inconsistency that is dayz pvp. One of the many factors that leads to stand alone having crappy gunplay.

Yes. Frankly everything else is imo perfectly fine for this stage of development. I know the survival aspects and other factors will be improved. What bugs me about the dispersion, damage, and weapon handling is that it is such a core aspect of the game that I simply cannot grasp why it is so fucked up at the moment. At any stage of the alpha you would think such a crucial aspect would be solid right? Yet it is not. It has gone from some great Arma 2 shooting mechanics into bar none the wonkiest most unsatisfying gunplay in any game I have perhaps ever played. The amount that the gunplay has degraded is simply hard to accurately measure. It is truly that bad for me. So for now that one area is the biggest failure of the alpha everything else is good or will be good.

Disappointing

Balance I keep hearing this word and I cringe each time. Why balance anything why not just treat the guns like they are in real life. The balance by adjusting the loot tables. Their attempt to make the accessories more than just cosmetic has resulted in dayz having the worst shooting in not only any Bohemia interactive game to date but also any zombie shooter I have played.

The game sadly does not take realism into account at all. The mosin in game appears to be a bubbaed 9130 with a bent bolt. Not a true sniper variant. In game you can easily mount a modern variable scope that closely appears to be a nightforce branded scope you can also somehow attach a modern day atlas bipod to some kind of magically mount in the front. In game the mosin somehow becomes more mechanically accurate when you deploy the bipod and when outfitted with a flash hider. Worst part is the mosin in game is able to hit tiny targets out at 1200m using crappy mil surp ammo. :/ Realism......

People are screaming realism in a Bohemia Interactive developed game. Does not matter if there are zombies or not.

Jesus 27.5 moa. ..... It must have no rifling or something.

Why? Nobody can answer that. Why does it even matter ?

How is it compared to real life ?

Pretty much the way stand alone handles the weapons and accessories is horrible. The more the weapons and shooting mimic real life the better.

The m4 is a 40 moa gun currently. How is that not a problem. The sks is also very inaccurate and the mosin is a tad bit too accurate.

Looking far worse than the mod was at the exact same time frame. There seems to be no sense of direction and an enhanced emphasis on no simulation aspects and arcade elements. Very few things feel as good or as satisfying as they did in the mods, the weapons are unrealistic, the attachment system is crap and the game is plagued wth horrendous design decisions. That being said it is only 4 months in and who knows if they keep the arcade crap in, luckily Dayz S is not the only zombie sim around the block and if it fails someone will pick up the slack and make the game everyone truly wants.

Perhaps they would correct the problem with future weapons and then come back to the preexisting firearms and fix them also ? Dunno.

Last thing this game needs is RPG elements. The game is far too arcadey as it is. More simulation is the only thing required atm.

Pretty bad idea imo. Nobody with any firearm sense would do this, they would simply use the provided iron sights.

Never played that I am waiting for the ps3 emulator to work well so I can play it at 1440p and with 16x AA before I play it. How does that game handle going into your inventory.

I am for all aspects of realism that add depth to the game. Pooping could be one aspect however nobody here is capable of saying if it adds depth or not since nobody has tested it out. Dayz turning or feeling like arma is not a bad thing also, the game could play and feel like arma aka a good thing + have a super amazing survival core added on top of that. I don't think anyone would complain if the shooting and player movement were closer to arma 3 that game has what I would call as perfect player control and shooting. The stance system + the buttery good aiming + the lighting system makes for a wonderful experience.

Is it relevant at all if there are any girl games here ? It really does not matter and I simply find this strange obsession or concern for girl gamers to be odd.

Why would anyone expect everything to be damaged or destroyed ? It was a zombie apocalypse not a nuclear disaster .

I thought the devs said they removed it temporarily because there was a clipping issue with the combination. New helmet model or new gasmask is said to fix that ?
