    akm stock

    Seems like Torchia knows his guns wonder where the unrealistic properties from weapons is coming from then.

    I understand. I am curious if the entire dispersion mechanic was a mistake and was never actually intentional.

    Trigger simulation and Sight Alignment

    Yea that is why I like the PR simple, it is easy to grasp and increases the skill gap. It also has a basis on reality. It would be a great enhancement to the game. I think your idea on being able to independently control front and rear sight alignment on a gun is pretty interesting but I somehow can see it being hard to incorporate. I however thought about when aiming down the sights it would be nice to manually raise the front post by using the scroll wheel on your mouse the benefit of this would be to allow for such things as "ghetto Red Dots" on weapons or so they are called. Basically you raise your front sight slightly and use that to aim at center mass on targets at close quarters its essentually a ghetto red dot sight and it allows for faster reaction time at close quarters where sight alignment is negligible. sorta like this. Yea thats a good 5 - 10 years away though but it will be glorious. I would like to see some innovation on the input front mouse and key board while fantastic is not completely ideal for First person shooters, the falcon was an amazing device that I wish were standard force feed back adds so much to games in every genre everything from racers, flight sims to shooters. It looks pretty accurate to me, although yes the contact point to the shoulder should be far more rigid and mostly the front sight should be what deviates as the gun is moved or what moves when arm fatigue sets in. It could work and would go a long way to separate the weapon classes in the game. It is above all a real life thing. The trick is to make the delay very faint so that it does not interfere with gameplay I am talking about mili seconds here. Match rifles and precision rifles = no delay at all to represent their crisp triggers low weight triggers Military rifles = some take up and gritty trigger so a minimal delay Flintlock rifles , curio relics and military surplus rifles, double action revolvers = noticeable delay to represent their generally bad triggers that have been affected by time and or antiquated trigger mechanism. It would just need to be a game mechanic that is tweaked and tuned until it not only feels good in game but makes sense I am not talking about 1 second delays or more between click and shooting I am talking about mili seconds. That was only because it was trying to simulate the double action of the revolvers and the delay was insane it was like over 1 second or something it felt terrible. A less noticeable delay would work in game its just something that needs constant tweaking until it feels right.

    akm stock

    I shot an underfolder akm ones it made my mouth bleed :/ I stupidly tried to get a cheek weld on one and the metal made my tooth slice the side of my cheek. So if anything it should decrease accuracy right Awesome hopefully soon they remove the dispersion modifier in all the weapon attachments, bipod included and actually give the bipod utility by having it attach to the enviroment and reducing felt recoil when attached.

    No silly +30 accuracy ?

    CZ 527

    Most important thing with the arma 2 and arma 3 method was that it does not interfer with the shooting at all. In stand alone it does the flash is distracting and the smoke is excessive and makes follow up shots annoying.

    is this game dead already?

    Game is not dead but I will say the interest in the game is dying as a whole. This can be seen the slowing down of activity in this forum and on the subreddit. This is probably all gameplay related and not content related. As the game gets more finished interest will probably increase again.

    CZ 527

    When it comes to the firearms I think it would be safe to assume that realism would only increase the fun not detract from it.
  9. gibonez

    CZ 527

    sigh It is a bolt action carbine in an intermediate cartridge . it is more of a small- medium game hunting rifle people love to throw the word sniper rifle around without knowing what it is. Just like people calling the mosin a sniper rifle lol. It is the small tiny details that make the game special phil. Attention to detail is of utmost importance.
  10. I am really scratching my head at the people defending 3pp. How can you defend something that inherently cancerous to gameplay ?
  11. gibonez

    PLEASE just add a "Anywhere suicide button"

    I honestly wish they would do the opposite , remove all fall damage in the alpha to prevent people from suicide and then see how it affects their behavior and movement.

    Will DayZ become a horror game?

    I would have to say no. I don't consider any multiplayer or co-op game to be horror. That being said I miss the old resident evils so sad they are now co-op games.

    CZ 527

    Yea but nowhere I mean nowhere near as much smoke as in dayz. The only time I ever saw major smoke coming out of a gun I shot was after I quickly emptied one of those tiny draco pistols a friend of mine owns. The barrel itself was not smoking but the handguards must have been burning a little cause that was where the smoke was emanating from.

    CZ 527

    good overview of the gun really nice gun at a great price. The walnut stock is lovely too shame it will be ruined by the silly paint mechanic. I am willing to bet the gun is going to be in 7.62x39. There are tons of other bolt actions that would work for a .223/5.56 bolt gun but the 7.62x39 bolt guns are quite rare atleast here in the west.

    We need a char reset!

    Does it really matter why are you so invested in your character the game has no obligation to work or even be enjoyable yet. Dont invest yourself on your character atleast not at this stage of development. I say have regular cross hive character wipes have them often have them regularly if they are needed to test or remove objects across all servers.
  16. They roll deep now too.

    M4 Recoil Changed?

    Is it close to the way it recoils in Arma 3 or arma 2 ? Arma 2 shooting mechanics were pretty spot on.
  18. gibonez

    0.45 patch. 5.56 ammo/ammo box bug?

    That might change if the 527 is chambered in .223 we might start seeing 5.56 boxes of ammo in civilian spawns. m4 magazines will probably remain heli loot though.

    Weird weapon shaking in 0.45

    You are assuming the bipod affects the sway in any shape or form. The bipod currently incorrectly just decreases dispersion it has no effect on weapon stability or sway.
  20. gibonez

    CZ 527

    Probably will not sure why they cannot use the real manufactures or makes for the weapons. I always assumed weapon makers would love if games did that it is free publicity after all.

    The Future of Hardcore vs. Regular?

    That is going to happen regardless due the server options. Just like the mod people will have to find a private server that best meets their needs and then play that. Each server having its own ecosystem and community this is where dayz shines. The hive public servers offer a subpar crap experience.
  22. Once again what does tournaments have to do with a game being competitive? What does rounds, a timer or points system. The game does not need to have a scoring system , a official tournament sponsor to be a competitive game. People compete in game for resources and land this is where the competition lies and it is one that has far greater penalties due to perma death. you can keep saying dayz is not a competitive game but in reality it has every bullet point to make it one.

    CZ 527

    Ammo. The cz 527 is a new production rifle made by CZ a company known within the long range shooting community a having some of the best stock rifles out there. If you ever held a cz rifle in your hands the only thing you can think of is quality everything from the wood to how good the trigger feels just screams quality. Meanwhile the mosin nagants you can buy today were hastily assembled without a care in the world they were assembled with miss matching parts, badly fitting parts and in a rush so they could quickly arm front line troops. This along with the horrible quality of soviet era surplus ammo leads to it being super inaccurate the other major factor hurting its accuracy is the huge amount of pressure points on the long long barrel. Meanwhile the cz 527 has the benefit of firing new production ammo + making a better rifle overall with modern technology and precision machining.

    Server Hoppers deserve to die.

    Only solution is 1 player per server even on hive servers. The global hive has always been a flawed concept.
  25. You know you always have the choice to rent out a server yourself and running it your way.
