Proper Evisceration & Decapitation Would Be Nice
gibonez replied to Deathlove's topic in General Discussion
Sadly I think the devs are afraid of gore for some reason. :/ Hope they realize the main demographic playing the game are in their 20s + . -
Proper Evisceration & Decapitation Would Be Nice
gibonez replied to Deathlove's topic in General Discussion
The engine can do it. There is ace mod + a gore mod. I really wana see gore for gunshot wounds, this would help people identify how people died and this is extremely important lets a player know if the dead body in the road was a snipers kill or if it was killed by a zombie. -
I agree on the hunting rifles being varied and having different ballistics. I still hope we see some modern day bolt actions in the game. Remington 700 in .308 Savage hog hunter in .223 Tikka T3 in .300 win mag Cz 527 in 7.62x39 cz 557 in .30-06 The CZ and the Savage in particular are exciting choices because they have built in iron sights. The Remington or any other bolt action without iron sights I would imagine would have to spawn with a fixed power scope. I just hope when and if they do add more cartridges they actually do have accurate ballistics. I want to see a .308 be able to reach out to 1200m. I wana see a .300 win mag go out to a mile.

Why would ww2 rifles and smgs make it into an eastern european country in 2014 ? Only reason the mosin is in the game is because millions upon millions of them were made and you can still buy them by the crate for 100 dollars each. To top this off the 7.62x54r has been mass produced for a century+ making it readily available.
-
Isn't it also true that they only have a certain number of items they could add to the loot tables ? I remember reading somewhere that there was a finite number of items that could be introduced into the loot tables so they are thereby restricted already.

Obscure and tacticool weapons in my mind are those corny guns that are marketed as the next big thing and they are intentionally marketed towards civilians are easily fooled by black rifles , rails and accessories.
-
I had no idea kimber outfitted any military in the world. If they do god daam they are overpaying. I no longer see the sks and the mosin nagant as military weapons, they were when they were issued sure, but now they are owned and marketed towards the civilian market as ranch rifles and deer rifles. No military in the world would want to outfit their troops with mosins or sks rifles.

Someones been playing Rouge legacy.

Arma verse and dayz stand alone arent the same. Far as I know Dayz has yet to have a backstory . As far as a more civilian focus I am just judging this based on the fact that there is only 1 military weapon in the game the m4. Mosin nagant is pretty much a civilian deer rifle now, sks is also a civilian weapon, the ruger 10/22 , ruger pistol, fnx,b95, colt python etc are all civilian weapons. We havent and probably wont be seeing any tacticool firearms for a long time.
-
Yea then peoples performance will go from 30 fps to 10 when aiming. I say if the weapon has any magnification at all, make the gun a 2d scope like the LRS but make sure it has the correct zoom amount. The pu scope and acog would be better as 2d scopes with the correct zoom amount.
-
I just get the general impression that Civilian weapons and weapons that make sense for the region will appear in the game and not obscure military weapons such as that mrad.
-
The weapons in the mod were only added in because they were already in arma 2. Now they don't have to worry about that they can start from scratch and add weapons that fit the setting, this is apparent now since there is such a focus on civilian weapons.
-
Yea have you played arma 2 ? Arma 2 when you aim down the sights its not zoomed, but once you are ironed sighted if you hold right mouse button you zoom in on your irons for accurate long range shots. Good combo that allows for close in work and medium distance work on the same gun and with irons.
-
Thats a carbine though.
-
But it really isn't iron sight zoom. It is ment to simulate the total resolution that your eye can see. Let me explain. Due to the games resolution without zooming in you are greatly limited by the maximum distance you can see. While in real life our 300+ mega pixel eyes let us see out for miles and miles. This also allows us to aim accurately with iron sights for a substantial distance.
-
Aren't there a finite number of spawn slots in the game ? If true as I believe I read in a tweet, this would mean adding in an unlikely and jarring gun such as a scar or a vector would mean wasting a spot for a weapon that would actually fit the setting.
-
Those are all readily available to civilians though. As far as I am aware a Vector is not sold to the public and if it was it would be a longed barrel semi auto version ? I doubt the vector would be sold in eastern Europe at all. Reason I am associating a military weapon is because if it were a military designated gun it would be plausible to somehow have ended up in Eastern Europe.
-
All the calibers you listed are widely adopted military rounds and or popular hunting cartridges in eastern Europe. All of the rounds you listed in that category I would love to see. 9x18 is a given right since they are bound to add the makarov ?
-
I think consolidating ammo is a good move. Especially with the new magazine and ammo system in place. Will be great not seeing super obscure or strange calibers in the game although some should see the light of day.
-
Wow thats terrible..... especially 2 rounds a second. It should be 2 rounds a minute if that.
-
Illinois. They justify it by stating that Crossbows make it too easy and require no skill to use against game. Then again Illinois is really big on bow hunting.
-
Shaking my head at all the kriss vector mentions lol. Has any nation even adopted that ? Though it was just yet again one of those guns made popular by future weapons that never got adopted by anyone. Also if they do go the bizon route hope its the 9mm nato version.
-
How about they fix the FOV affecting optics first. One zoom level regardless of FOV settings.
-
Watch that. Your monitors resolution is probably 1080p now imagine trying to simulate an eyes resolution using a super small monitor with low resolution such as a 1080p or 1440p monitor. This is why zoom is needed. Zoom represents a small segment of what your eye actually sees. A small window of the whole picture.
-
Never held a crossbow. Heck never even seen one in person only handicapped people can hunt with them in this state.
