  1. Yet .38 special is used in far more weapons that are viable for the region. Yes .45 is a very niche caliber. In the US it has had steady support but that support has saw considerable decrease over the past 20 years. Outside of the US .45 acp is pretty non existent that alone makes its inclusion in Dayz pretty stupid. So yes .45 acp is not prolific around the world. 7.62x25 would have added a far larger variety of weapons that fit the setting and the asthetic of dayz especially compared to Western calibers like .45 acp. I mean you add the m1911 and for some odd reason the fnx is added. Where do you go from there ? You add the mall ninja vector ? a tommy gun with a big ol drum mag ? a m3 grease gun ? A de lisle rifle ? .45 acp offers far less options in weapons that would make sense for the setting. Unlike those .45 ww2 war relics 7.62x25 smgs and pistols are still used today all over the world.
  2. The ballistics of the 7.62x25 along with the eastern weapons that are chambered in this round alone make it a far better round to have in the game compared to the calibers I mentioned. .45 acp = prolific sure but only really widespread and used in the US. .380 = Sorta common in concealed carry pistols in the US not really used outside of this .357 magnum = a caliber that is primarily used only in the US in a limited amount of weapons. They should have added 38 special instead of .357 magnum. 9x18 makarov instead of .380 and 7.62x25 instead of .45acp.

    So M1 Garand has been confirmend...

    The COD shooters rather see something like this instead. The cod kiddies would absolutely hate the m1 garand, no accessories no acogs or silencers for that m1 garand just iron sgiths.
  4. 7.62x25 should have been in the game. It has way more potential than .45 acp, .380 and .357 magnum combined.

    Anyone excited for the .357 Lever action?

    I just hope they get the ballistics down correctly.

    Hard to find ammo for one. And isnt .45-70 a black powder round ?

    Do you want pooping in this game?

    Then fine don't have a 3d modeled turd but the act of defecation or the simulation of defecation would add alot to the game. They can just have an animation where the player squats and proceeds to defecate and pretend wipes or whatever. The actual 3d modeled turd does not need to be there not that I see a problem with it. As for not being added due to the amount of children that play I have one thing to say about that. The game is rated Mature those kids should not be playing it anyway so them playing the game should not ever even be a factor and should not be taken into consideration.

    Do you want pooping in this game?

    Some people are failing to see the potential of pooping and how it could be directly tied to deeper and better food mechanics. Imagine if dayz food had calories attached and in order to sustain yourself you not only needed food but depending on your activity level needed high calorie food. That you had a simulated digestive system where if you ate nothing but fruit the high fiber results in diarrhea and on the flip side eating too much protein with no fiber results in your character being constipated and getting sick. Having the food and nutrition system in the game require a balanced diet would help push the realism + survival aspects of the game and further make dayz a harsher more unforgiving experience.

    Increase walking/running speed while on incline

    Yea the game now has physics right. Why not make the movement physics based. Add weight, acceleration, deceleration when moving forward and reverse. Have your character fall and trip if he attempts to sprint up steep hills just like gta 4. This way speed and movement is not tied to an ingame mechanic but the player himself has to make smart decisions when moving around the game. I can imagine this would also make the games traveling more fun as you are constantly having to assess how to traverse the environment.
  11. Why would it have anything to do with bones. It just seems to me that every time you take damage your overall health "bar" or blood count is lowered. So when you heal back to full health you start off lower than a fresh spawn because the fresh spawn would have never gotten any injuries.

    No what would likely happen is you break your ankle and or stumble.

    1st person dying breed

    There have been countless examples how it ruins the certain aspects of the game. It is undeniable that wall peeking and seeing over obstacles ruins pvp and stealth in the game. Having two seperate game modes isn't the solution if half the game is still broken.

    Increase walking/running speed while on incline

    People fail to grasp just how steep those hills really are. If anything the game is quite generous at times for even allowing you to get up some of these super steep hills. Speed is not the problem we just need a different animation that better illustrates how steep the hills are when you enter walking mode. We don't want to end up with super unrealistic skyrim horse physics.

    Temperature effects are broken since hotfix

    Just adapt to the new mechanics like everyone else has.

    Yea it's silly. 3pp should be attacked due to how it ruins the game not because of who or the reasons why people play that mode.

    More Spray Pain Color Options For Latter Please! :)

    Spray painting your clothing and guns is one of those things that would have been better left out of the game. At the very least they can make weapons jam and sometimes no longer function if the paint gets into the internals from painting them out in the field.

    All the more reason to Fix third person view. 1. Fix third person view so players don't render when you can't see them. 2. Adjust the cameras position so that it would painfully hard to use it to see over cover this would remove the instances where people pop into existence . 3. Implement a Civilian friendly stance system that is not unlike arma 3 so that players have more control over what they see while in first person view. 4. Remove hardcore and consolidate the community into one rule set.

    Jumping Server Cheating and Spawning Characters

    Name a single problem introduced with one character per server that isn't people simple not being able to change servers at will that is not a problem.

    The new running animation, Why?

    Good idea but I would imagine this would be super labor intensive.
  22. gibonez

    The new running animation, Why?

    Looks fine to me. Looks like an ordinary dude, not an athlete, not a soldier running.

    Jumping Server Cheating and Spawning Characters

    One character per server. Would fix so many of the problems in the game.

    Anyone got a comparison ?
