    Ammo Calibration : Poll & Discussion

    gibonez replied to stielhandgranate's topic in General Discussion

    The thought of firing a 300 win mag out of such a short barrel hurts me.

    Ammo Calibration : Poll & Discussion

    gibonez replied to stielhandgranate's topic in General Discussion

    I thought the longhorn was a .308 win pistol rifle thingy ? You are right about the number of guns though. I assume they will start to slow down soon. Mp5k , 870 clone we saw, SVD, Cz rifle, and the pm. Overall we have a pretty complete weapon list in the game.

    Sniping and Handguns.

    gibonez replied to Acher0n's topic in General Discussion

    It is not. It's cheap polymer plastic the company is known to make junk that is often times poorly fitting. The stock mosin stock is built like a tank you if you start hitting a building with it I think the building will break first. Its solid at the expense of not being fun to shoot that steel buttpad hurts.

    gibonez replied to spartacusrex's topic in General Discussion

    ahhh one of those stealth " To the guy @" threads.

    Not opposed to the rust system where you spawn in laying down sleeping. Then after say about 30 seconds you wake up and can move.
  9. gibonez
    In a sense yes. It just demonstrates that some people are willing to live in unrealistic and unauthentic gameplay elements if it means it makes the game easier for them. Such things just hurt the game just because you want to find loot quickly does not mean the game should suffer because of it.

    Ammo Calibration : Poll & Discussion

    gibonez replied to stielhandgranate's topic in General Discussion

    I really hope they make a complete 180 on their stance against realism and authenticity. I still think 7.62x54r.32 acp9x18 makarov9x395.45x39Are all critical calibers in the game. I mean how could have you have a game set in a Post Soviet Country without an Ak74, makarov, vz61, and a vss From another thread .
  11. gibonez
    That would also open the door for lots of other cool firearms like the sig p230.
  12. gibonez
    Heh this comment did the perfect job of showing why the guns need the correct calibers and thus make the game a tiny bit harder.

    Actual Super Market

    gibonez replied to Poggle's topic in General Discussion

    Best zombie movie of all time took place in a mall.
  14. gibonez
    Actually has nothing to do with their looks. I actually find a lot of those mall ninja guns quite nice looking just not practical. It's about the gun feeling right compared to everything else in the game. I mean how jarring would it be to see a dayz survivor who is dressed like a hobo running around with a fully kitted out scar or vector smg. It would just look silly imagine if the movie the road had the cannibals running around with barrets and tavors.

    Sniping and Handguns.

    gibonez replied to Acher0n's topic in General Discussion

    No that is just a mosin removed of its only benefit. The mosins only advantage is its ruggedness and ability to take a beating while still working. That's gone with that cheap plastic stock.

    So.. Is this what its about?

    gibonez replied to HeavensValor's topic in General Discussion

    man the gunplay is so atrocious in stand alone now with the unreal tournament movement. People move with absolutely no weight to them
  17. gibonez
    Now we are getting somewhere I would say yes until they are fixed. Frankly though the LOD system will never be fixed and regardless of what they do it will always let you spot players from miles away even if they are in the middle of a jungle or forest. This has been the case with every game to date. This is just a minor reason why not to add helicopters though plenty of other ones exist.
  18. gibonez
    How are those even remotely related ?
  19. gibonez
    It is a rendering issue that is magnified with flying. Its a problem easily avoided by not including helicopters.

    No fog?

    gibonez replied to roguetrooper's topic in General Discussion

    Hopefully its a server side option this way people can customized it anyway they wish .
  21. gibonez
    Easy to spot players in a helicopter. Fly really high to where trees and the lod system does the worl for you. Player might be in the middle of a forest but thanks to the LOD system he sticks out like a sore thumb.

    confirmed new stuff in exp. 46.

    gibonez replied to Lauch's topic in General Discussion

    There is nothing wrong with grenade launchers if they are put in correctly. They have a relatively small blast radius , limited range and heck they dont even detonate if you fire them at something close. Problem is how games like COD portray them as one shot kill point blank weapons. If added faithfully they will not be a problem as 99 percent of rounds will go harmlessly into the ground as the shooter was trying to shoot it at someone within 30 m. I do kinda wish the first grenade launcher was this beautiful beast. Such a classic and iconic beauty.

    Dayz Stand Alone " Like Arma but without any of the good gunplay and a whole lot more Tactical"
  24. gibonez
    Yes because the way a gun looks is important right.
  25. gibonez

    confirmed new stuff in exp. 46.

    gibonez replied to Lauch's topic in General Discussion

    I thought that was all due to the crappy damage model in game not the mosin itself being nerfed.
