Hope they are done properly. Best Grenade launcher I have ever seen in a game was Arma 2 ACE mod. Ace had sharpnel shoot out of the grenades and explosions in the game sometimes a 40mm would land 30 feet away and still injure a player after the sharpnel shot out and hit him sometimes it would land 4 feet away and I would come out unscathed since nothing hit me. The explosion effect was also subdued and realistic.

What new Rifles would you guys like to see?
gibonez replied to Forrelist's topic in General Discussion
Technically Mosins are inaccurate but the problem is Mosins are more accurate than most people can shoot them for. Using real technical data you will all find that Mosins are indeed far less accurate than nearly any new production bolt and semi rifle. A 5 inch group at 100 yards might mean a hit every time but at 1000 yards it just means alot of potential misses especially with wind being added. -
you are imagining things. It is 1:1 when you have scopes on.

does anyone find the crossbow underpowered
gibonez replied to hellzbro's topic in General Discussion
Nope they are underpowered in real life so thus they should be in game. -
Will Private Shards use the Central Loot system?
gibonez replied to The Carnivore's topic in General Discussion
The loot would not transfer over. From what I understand The Shard servers are just private hives that are controlled by the hive loot control system. So anything you pick up inside the shard stays in the sharded server. -

Post it here. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/181929-what-clothing-setweapons-would-you-add-if-you-could/ -
Respawning needs to be removed completely to be honest. Only upon death should you be able to respawn. What is the point of breaking a players leg with a gunshot and bandaging him only to have him respawn. Respawning ruins so much of the games potential.

Chatacter wipe next stable build(.49) possible
gibonez replied to cels's topic in General Discussion
Who cares about being punished. If it eliminates all of the hacked mags then that alone is worth the tiny bit of effort that some players would have to go through to regear. Keep you eye on the prize guys you are all testing that comes before actually enjoying the game. -
What clothing set/weapons would you add if you could?
gibonez replied to SomeCallMeNomad (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Hence why I am an advocate of accessories only spawning on weapons in rare chances. This would make far more sense than seeing scopes, lights just littering the games taverns and beds. This also would do a good job of sorta explaining why you can mount a pu scope on the sks or a LRS on a mosin as that particular mosin or sks you found was modified and had the scope mounted. More importantly it would create artificial weapon variety by having far more of the weapons you find be different due to being in different configurations and at the same time ensuring highly sought after accessories such as scopes are extremely rare as they should be. This would also make it so Iron Sights play a bigger role due to the scarcity of Optics in the game world. Something I see as helping with pointless KOS as the player would be more at risk when engaging in pvp. -
Will Private Shards use the Central Loot system?
gibonez replied to The Carnivore's topic in General Discussion
It would stay on that server. Whole point is that each server has its own ecosystem. No server hoppers, no ghosters, less combat logging. Far less of a chance of joining in the same building you are in. None of the lame stuff that happens due to the crappy global hive. -
The Community's List of Suggested Weapons for Dayz Standalone (Version: 1.29)
gibonez replied to alexeistukov's topic in Suggestions
Hey maybe he watched Expendables and got the idea. Those boys got all the cool toys. Tactical scarf check, tactical tactical flashlight check, tactical laser check, tactical dual wielding double check. -
Gamma changing based on what you look at
gibonez replied to infiltrator's topic in General Discussion
Think he is referring to the bloom or HDR in the game. Where everything has a dark tint when looking slighly down away from what you are trying to look at sometimes makes it go away. It was annoying in Arma 2 and its annoying now. Arma 3 does not seem to suffer from it though. -

gibonez replied to The Carnivore's topic in General Discussion
So private shards are Vanilla servers without the fuckery that comes from server hopping, combat logging and ghosting ? Sounds good thats how all servers should have been. -
What clothing set/weapons would you add if you could?
gibonez replied to SomeCallMeNomad (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
A weapons rarity should be based off how flexible the weapon is secondly and primarily of how rare it would be within the setting. Modularity should play a huge role in weapon rarity. -

gibonez replied to SomeCallMeNomad (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
.308 is a dedicated sniper round. What they could do is have two different types of .308 rounds, general bulk mil surp .308 that is accurate enough and match ammo that is rarer and is far more accurate. -
Haven't had a problem with the sway and stamina thus far. I can aim the shotgun just fine.

gibonez replied to SomeCallMeNomad (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
They could remove the LRS from the mosin and then it would warrant the m24 being a crash site weapon. Also has this been suggested yet ? The Uzi a great no frills no nonsense submachinegun in 9mm that has such an iconic history. -
This was the solution before , people complained and they changed it back :/

Has dayZ succeeded in being a different type of game?
gibonez replied to stielhandgranate's topic in General Discussion
Currently it is just Arma 2 wth zombies. Eventually with more features and an increase difficulty hopefully it evolves into its own beast. -
The vast majority of shotguns only have a tiny bead on the front and no rear sights .

The Community's List of Suggested Weapons for Dayz Standalone (Version: 1.29)

There apparently is a .22 lr model of this firearm sold in Eastern nations for sporting purposes. -
More military uniforms :/

Whole point of it spawning you in the wilderness is that you would have even less control of such a situation. Of course there could be some exclusions as to where you spawn such as ultra high loot areas like the north west airfield but everything else being fair game.

Isn't item permanence counterintuitive to permadeath?
gibonez replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
On one side of the spectrum it is due to giving you a means to quickly gear back up. However on the other side of the spectrum it only makes perma death even more consequential. Let's look at rust. Rust has your character not only have persistence in a sense that if you die your character dies accross all servers, but if you leave the game your character stays in game in a sleep animation. What this does is forces players to build shelter, defenses and often times form communities in order to protect their progress and base. What this also does is make defending yourself that much more important, losing your base literally means you start all over again a process that could take dozens of hours sometimes.
