The game doesn't take place int he USSR though. It takes place modern day long after the USSR imploded on itself.
-
You know the Soviet union collapsed a few decades ago. Importing western weapons legally and illegally would be extremely likely.

What clothing set/weapons would you add if you could?
gibonez replied to SomeCallMeNomad (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Soviet Era Biohazard suit Russian Afghanistan uniform Soviet Army Military Chemical Protection suit L-1 Modern Russian Digital Flora camo uniform Lots and lots of soviet and russian gasmask and baclavas -
That's saying alot too since BF3 has some of the most unrealistic ballistics ever in a game.

Items seem completely fine and in line of where I believe the setting is. All indications appear to me that the closest country in real world to resemble the in game world is the Czech Republic. From my understand the CZ Republic has a wide variety of firearms including a wide variety of western weapons. Weapon choices also make sense because of ammo. .22lr, 357 magnum and .45 acp are all ammos far more common world wide as opposed to their now defunct soviet and russian counterparts. This gives the devs more freedom in adding a bigger variety of weapons in the future.

Fourth wall would leave it as is. All it does is not render players if your character has line of sight its pretty much the perfect solution to this problem. - No longer can you cheat by proning behind cover or peeking around corners - People with motion sickness can play in tpv and not suffer - Everyone is happy nobody is alienated and the game is better.

Just people believing old myths about the ak accuracy. What they do not understand is this myth steams from the type of person who typically was judged. The only reason the ak is deemed to be inaccurate was because the user was typically some uneducated peasant who had never fired a gun before or knew how to accurately fire their weapon. In reality though the ak is quite accurate not unlike any modern rifle and is quite serviceable up until 500 m on point targets and yes 1000m on area targets.

The fourth wall mod needs to be implemented, folks at Bohemia should hire the guy imo and then incorporate this throughout all of Bohemia Interactive games. The mod could be instrumental into fixing third person view while at the same not alienating any group.

They did it out of necessity. If all you have is a crappy musket then you would be using that to snipe with. Also the mosins that were issued to their snipers were hand selected those were rifles that were far more accurate than the average mosin. Mosins in game do not appear to be those snipers mosins they look like a bubbaed aka regular stock mosin some guy decided to install a bent bolt on and mount optics on.

My gun of choice if it were included would be a Remington 700 chambered in .223 or .308 with a harris bipod mounted on that would be a 10x mil dot scope with mil/mil turrets with a maximum elevation of 30 mils

This is house of jank

Well within the weapons effective range. I cannot consistently hit anything even at 100m with the m4.
-
How does that change the fact that the weapons in dayz randomly shoot in every which way. Sure you could be a green horn survivor who never shot a gun but making the gun shoot like a blunderbuss isnt going to simulate that .
-
Does that magically make the gun fire in a totally different direction of where its pointed at ?

Sad that a Arcade game like BF3 has more accurate weapons than a survival simulator with a Military sim pedigree.

Third person View. :)

You buried a 1200 dollar gun for a year ? what ?

Pistols too inaccurate as well as m4?!
gibonez replied to Sgt.BigBeasty's topic in General Discussion
Dude do yourself a favor and play it. Wind is such an amazing thing in ace in addition to the slight increase in dispersion due to each weapon having its realistic true to life accuracy set in place. Hitting things at 500m with an assault rifle is so satisfying. More importantly shooting in general is so good because of weapon resting and bipod deployment when you do this SHIFT + SPACE on a surface such as a car, window, floor, rucksack etc your weapon stablizes and sway is heavily negated this is vital for making 2000 m shots with a tac 50 or even 1200m shots with a m24. -
For this very reason I am wished when you go to tpv you get a front to back view of your character making tpv useless for cheating but good for seeing your character.

gibonez replied to Sgt.BigBeasty's topic in General Discussion
Yea arma 2 values were good. ACE values I think are perfect. ACE weapons had real life accuracy + wind this lead to much more satisfying gunplay at all ranges. -
Super realistic is well balanced. Real life balances itself and even then of course some weapons will be deemed overpowered but then thats when you "balance" that weapon by adjusting its spawn chances not by making it accurate up to 40 feet,
-
Even if they were in storage, the way they were hastily manufactured and with the poor quality control they underwent any mosin you find that is stock will be nearly the same unless its a finish mosin. Mosins with matching parts are rare, they were quickly assembled for the war effort with miss matched parts poorly fitted together. Mosins are not custom fitted weapons they are good shooters that are not that accurate, heck in game they are about what 2-3x more accurate compared to a real life mosin ?
-
If the gun had realistic accuracy, and gun behavior the m4 would be my top pick.
-
I love red Orchestras free aim mechanic it stimulates weapons so much better.
-
Yup give the weapons their real life accuracy and everyone is happy. Btw aks are quite accurate more accurate than stock mosins and SKS.
