AFAIK those sporterized rifles are nowhere near commonplace. Probably would make little sense in game. Only other bolt action i know has been talked about is a 5.56 varmint rifle.
-
That is exactly what it looks like will happen. That is the next bolt action to get in the game. The trend seems to be nothing extremely high end or improbable and civilian weapons and commonplace military rifles. Outside of the Aug and the ak101 all of the military weapons are probable and make sense within the context of the location.

nothing More zombies will do nothing to stop people from killing each other.

Not so much his fault but the fact that the pso and akm are incorrectly put in game. Zeroing your pso scope on the akm to 500m means your rounds hit at 500m in game when they should absolutely not. The ballistics between a 16 inch akm firing 7.62x39m does not correspond to that of what the pso is set at with a svd and 7.62x54r. Akm is too flat shooting and Dayz and arma 3s ballistics are not comprehensive enough.

Holding back gameplay mechanics due to something else not being in the game or not being accessible is not good imo , especially when vehicles and bicycles will probably not be very common in the finished game. Since stamina , and movement is so important to dayz the earlier they can start testing this out the better. Time to end the 30 km/h sprint speed and make sprint drain you of energy and be only viable as a super short burst action.

It is probably a gameplay decision just like a ghili suit does not have the ability to also wear a backpack. Better this way Imo, you trade protection for superior storage space. With the ghilli you trade conceal-ability for a huge amount of storage space.

Manage your expectations. Game is incomplete and frankly it will be for a long ass time.
-
Not cheating but it is kinda lame. Only solution would be what RUST did and have a procedurally generated map thus rendering any meta game maps completely useless.

Wont be needed. BI is working on a launcher that automatically tells you what mods are needed to join a server and downloads em for you.
-
the dot is not a crosshair and will be removed eventually. apparently the dot is there from the engine as the same dot is apparent in arma 3 when you press the function keys. It needs to be removed sooner better than later.
-
I honestly do not see this happening however. The Arma 3 devs recently announced the reason there were no bolt action rifles in the upcoming DLC was due to a fundemental problem with how the game handles bolt action rifles. So this lead me to believe that whatever changes required to achieve something like this would be quite quite substantial and not just something easily added.
-
If only. Would fix so many of the games inherent problems.
-
Because the gunshot just physically removed a substantial amount of the bottle with the bullet impact and the gasses. TBH the bottle should blow up not just rip at the end and it should blow up after 1 shot. Functioning for 6 shots is not realistic.

HOW ?

Thoughts on the new eating and drinking system?

What is the difference ? -
why doesn't the bipod fit on the mosion?!
gibonez replied to GhostSlayer (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I probably envision Arma 3s weapon resting being adopted making a bipod not as needed. The new model 70 will use the bipod as would many of the other hunting rifles that are coming. -

SVD would not mount the bipod either. -

gibonez replied to GhostSlayer (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Only if adding this type of bipod also severely decreases accuracy due to creating yet another pressure point on the barrel and screwing up the harmonics. -
The only weapon that might have some use for blank rounds is the sks for launching rifle grenades other than that nope

Cannot use an improvised suppressor with a mosin compensator
gibonez replied to trev186's topic in General Discussion
to be fair. One shot from any of the guns would explode the water bottle and thus no longer make the bottle suppress the sounds of the weapon. Not entirely sure why the bottle is able to muffle multiple shots currently. -

Only silly ones that make no sense. -

The compensator should get removed anyway. -
What I would consider a good first step and a stop gap until a more elegant solution to fixing the peeking is found

If you have played more than 2 minutes in any first person shooter you already posses all of the knowledge needed. Sniping is incredibly easy in Dayz just estimate the distance press page up a few times , don't even bother with wind and bingo easy shots out to 1000m. Mil reticles, wind, and better ballistics would go a long way to fix that. -

gibonez replied to GhostSlayer (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Takes no skill due to the in games easy mode shooting mechanics not because of the weapon itself.
