    Survived 6 shotgun hits

    All damage is broken. Inconsistent.

    Why no suicide button when broken legs?

    Because suicide is the easy way out. What would be the point of going around breaking fresh spawns legs if they could simply suicide defeats the purpose.

    .410 is cool as a survivor weapon. Those dual .410/ 22lr survival rifles are neat.

    I would go with option C. I would put in the Taurus Judge Then that opens the door for 2 unique calibers the .45 LC and the .410 shell. Then I add the SAA.

    Yea that's the feeling I am getting. They opted out of having Russian Calibers in favor of Western ones to have a wider variety of firearms in general . I suppose that is ok Although I personally would have loved to see far more Eastern weapons at the expense of western ones.

    I get what you are saying. Had this been set in Middle America then yea it makes sense but doesnt the Fictional Eastern European setting sorta dictate a preferance of Soviet and Russian calibers over western ones ? I would argue 5.45x39 would have been far more important than 7.62x51.

    Whats needed then ? a huge influx of western Military rifles in 5.56 ?

    I agree with making a 54r variant that is steel cased it would pretty easy to distinguish the rounds visually. It is hardly used in any western civilian weapons and how is this a bad thing ? in fact why even put a preference on 5.45x45 over 5.45 ?

    Yea they would just rename it . Fictional setting and all so I suppose they could just do that. :/

    Yup and the 3pp camera is way too high.

    The great M4 delete

    Ak is actually not really inaccurate. It is marginally less accurate compared to an m4 for example but its perfectly capable of hitting things. The rumor stems from people who tend to use ak rifles being conscripts or poorly trained people thus inaccurate. Reading this thread makes my head hurt though tell me again devs why should you cater to the casuals ?

    .380 ACP Coming To DayZ! [Torchia Reddit]

    I still think 54r and 5.45x39 are absolutely vital to the game. I hope we see them eventually the 54r would become feasible once the SVD is introduced and the 5.45x39 if they ever introduce the ak74 they had been working on in the past. I can understand if there was some kind of technical limitation restricting the number of ammo calibers then sure no problem streamline it I suppose. However simply restricting it because of a possible fear that casual players might get confused for 2 seconds is kinda alarming. Although I find making any concessions due to casuals alarming.

    When I was listing iconic firearms in .380 acp in the 20th century I nearly forgot the single most iconic and important gun. The gun that caused a world war. Model 1910 that today 100 years ago a model 1910 was used to kill Archduke Franz Ferdinand and start off ww1. Catering towards the casuals is imo not a good thing. They serverely underestimate the casuals ability to understand and learn to adapt to a few gun calibers. What worries me about this stance is what hope does this give for complicated gameplay mechanics. If they are so afraid of adding realistic calibers in merely because of the though scaring casuals what hope is there for Realistic medical systemAdvanced angular measurement elevation adjustmentsStamina/ weight based movement system It just confuses me how there seems to be a splt direction in the game some things are awesomely complex and deep like the blood types, cooking and food and thirst system. Yet others will be seemingly ultra simple. Like I said earlier the game has sold 2 million on Early access a pretty obscure and strange new concept on steam why even bother with catering or trying to avoid casuals. If they were casual gamers they probably would not be playing Dayz to begin with you have to be a certain type of hardcore to play dayz and making the game easier to grasp only seems to hurt the already established player base no ? Alienating the already very much robust player base that comes from Years and Years of loyalty towards Bohemia Interactive and the Arma series some of us Since operation flashpoint only because you want to perhaps not scare off the handful of casual gamers who might jump in ?

    Their confusion would be short lived no ? Finding the correct ammo for their firearm would surely be far less confusing than finding their correct blood type or figuring out how to stop bleeding. While I totally dig .380 being added because of the iconic guns that it has had especially in the 20th century isn't adding new Calibers pretty unavoidable in the future as the size library of firearms increases? not that it really has to by much its pretty unique and diverse at the moment. Yea I think not enough credt is being given to the casual players. I mean if they managed to play the mod or even just stand alone they are Pc gamers trying out an early access game that alone increases the barrier for entry. I doubt a slight difference in ammo will confuse them and even if it does confuse them for how long ? 10 minutes ?

    Yea Tiered weapons based on modularity would have been amazing. Regular Infantry mans rifle = M16a2 , ak74 and AKM = almost no modularity Special ops weapons highly modular = Ak101, ak 107, Ak12 , m16a4, m4 with rails The regular infantry weapons would pretty much share the same functionality as the higher tier modular versions only difference is the lack of accesories.

    Thats the thing I would love this approach. I would not be so opposed to the Railed AKM if there was a modernized akm variant that took optics and accessories. Vanilla starter Assault rifles = AK74, AKM = Little to no accessories. Modern modular Assault Rifle = AK104 and Ak107 right off the bat have rails to take on optics and any fancy gadget you wish.

    Yea that would be fine the aks-74 is a beauty. Anything but this.

    .380 ACP Coming To DayZ! [Torchia Reddit]

    Yea I would just imagine having it be an m16a2 would heavy lack of accessories would separate the m4 from the m16 and create 2 unique weapons. The m16a4 with its modularity would just become a 3 round burst 20 inch m4. I just envision there being a stock, low tier low modularity military rifle a gun that does not need to have or cant have all of the bells and gizmos that the new assault rifles have. I thought the akm would have been the first rifle to do that or even the sks but both of those guns have accessories the sks even has ones that arent compatible for it.

    I like the addition of a .223 bolt gun as but the cz probably should have been in 7.62x39 but its perfectly fine as a varmint rifle in .223. Pistols should be more viable starter weapons but I suspect they arent because of the lack of empty magazines spawning with the weapon. Makes a pistol pretty useless when you have to loot military areas for magazines. Chances are you will find a military rifle in your search and never need the pistol at the end.

    I didnt know I havent played a COD game since mw2 and I am boycotting EA games after the BF3 fiasco. You must admit thought even those 3 guns are used far more sparingly than you know the typical mp7, m4, m249 saw , cheytac intervention etc.

    I never said it was a bad weapon I merely said it follows in the standard roster of guns seen in military shooters nowadays. As far as military assault rifles that do not fit the mold I would like to see this trend continue and see unique weapons that are often ignored in other shooters such as the following. Ak5 Galil Sar Rk95 Ukranian military Vepr But ultimately the military rifle assault rifle I wish to see the most in the game with its correct caliber is the . The ak74 in Polish plum furniture. If there is a full sized m16 rifle in the game I would love for it to be the m16a2 version. Such an Iconic gun.
