Fix for the Mosin and all other future bolt action rifles.
gibonez replied to franzuu's topic in Suggestions
They went up in price ? -
One can hope. What I think they should do is give all of the weapons their real life properties and then balance the weapons by limiting their spawn chances. Go back and redo each weapon so that it takes only the realistic accessories for the weapon has its real life accuracy put in, and then add wind. I still think realism is the key to balance. The more realism they add the better balanced the game will be.

Ballistics affected by weather and he explains how bullets will be affected by wind. This gives us hope for a more detained and complex sniping mechanic in dayz. One that isnt as simple as just pressing page up until you get the appropriate range and then firing. Hopefully the end result is like that.

Yea that can Come later once the game is feature complete.

As long as the accesories are authentic I don't mind. But seeing a 2k + dollar scope on a 90 dollar mosin is annoying. Especially when its not easily mountable. -
1st person too zoomed in when aiming?
gibonez replied to [email protected]'s topic in General Discussion
Yea unzoomed for close range targets , and scanning for targets. Hold right mouse for precision shots. -
The mod might be the solution to fixing this glitch. Mod in theory should eliminate this from both modes since it detects where the players head is within a building so it blocks anything on the outside from rendering. As to why limiting the camera is not a better solution my guess would just be that even if they severly restrict the camera there will still be methods to use it to see around corners. The mod is the only surfire way of stopping this. Although restricting camera + mod works best.

That absolutely has to happen.

Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
gibonez replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
The problem is they pose a threat for all the wrong reasons. They are a threat because of how poorly they were added and because of the jank. What you are saying is similar to saying that hackers are the best now because they pose a threat. -
That is not what I'm proposing either. I merely want the guns to adopt their real life accuracy values in game. This would make all of the guns more accurate except for the mosin. Wind would not be random and after some practice and some math taking long range shots will not be that hard.

Sniping needs to be a chore. It's not an easy task so it should not be easy in game. Sniping should be a mirror copy of the ace system. No more 100m elevation adjustments. If you want to hit at 300 now go up 9 minutes on a. 308.

I miss the arma 2 method of aiming. Where you can aim, then press and hold right mouse button and it focuses in and zooms further making iron sighted shots at 300-400m possible. -
Then perhaps it is a mistake or a detriment that can now be solved.
-
All should have the mod regardless of settings. The exploit should not exist in any form of the game.

Fix for the Mosin and all other future bolt action rifles.
gibonez replied to franzuu's topic in Suggestions
I rather they "fix" the mosin by giving it the proper accuracy values + not allowing the mounting of optics. Mosin should be a bolt action iron sighted weapon. Mounting optics on that gun is such a pain in the ass that its not worth it. Hopefully when they add more modern bolt action rifles. -
It is very apparent that hardcore and regular will not differ in only the point of view. Hardcore and regular could potentially be different games. This mod would allow that to happen. This way players from both sides would not mind playing both modes.

Anyone worried there will be too many ammo types ?
gibonez replied to gibonez's topic in General Discussion
Hand loading would be an amazing aspect. Build a base putting a reloading press inside go out collect parts supplies etc. Build pipe bombs , ammo etc. -
Dayz would not be possible in any other engine. Dayz in any other non mil sim engine would just be any other zombie game that happens to have loot. Low view distance, focused on close combat, rendering distance of 200m tops. The engine they have is perfect for the game.

Subsonic and Supersonic Rounds [Torchia Tweet]
gibonez replied to Katana67's topic in General Discussion
Sounds like good news to me this would mean if this beauty got added to the game it would have the same long range potential as an unsuppressed remington 700. -
Sure its the best solution but yes this mod being incorporated into the game itself is the best compromise this community can make. Nobody alienated, both sides happy, and this feature tested to see if it removes the wall peeking and potentially stops the glitch where you can look through walls.

gibonez replied to gibonez's topic in General Discussion
sadly the days of mil sulp for those calibers are over. .303 british for example is all but gone. The surplus ammo has all but disappeared :(. Same with 7.92x57 people that have that typically hand load. -
how much improvement since alpha launched?
gibonez replied to _Xaquun_'s topic in General Discussion
more content but the game itself is worse. -
I can't wait for the day that base building is added. I will hoard the most useless items like collect 10k cans of rasputin soda.

.300 win mag i can see since its a popular long range hunting cartrige and since it is also now adopted in the military. .338 lm is pretty rare in the civilian market due to its high cost, and from my understanding only special forces use the .338 lm. -

p90s and 57s are insanely rare guns. They never took off in the civilian market and very few militarys adopted them. They would be common at all.
