im assuming day z takes place in the future. because of this thes guns wouldn't be prototypes any more and may be widely used. if you're talking about the tar 21 as prototype, its not. its the gun used by the majority of the idf.

I dont like it too much. there is too much tech involved for a zombie appocalypse; however, this did give me an idea, im sure its been said, but in a simmilar measure to spotting snipers there should be a scope glint just like you can find in real life.

not bad ideas. with the mags, i know that they arn't the same, but im sure you can bend a mag into shape, maybe its not recomended but in the account of a zombie appocalypse im sure its possible. this could be implimented into a crafting system that i also have a post on.

the problem with all domesticated animals is that you cant domesticate anything in a few secconds. it takes ages to train a horse or dog. if it was from pre apocalypse then it would work but that would be too unlikely and would ruin the realism. even with domesticated horses, try walking up and putting a saddle on it and riding it. its not just done. same goes for dogs and birds

i think you pretend you know about guns, but you dont. a scope is an attachment that goes on a gun rail. after it is tightened on it is good to go. some scopes work diffently but just about all are easy and simple to use. obviously guns that dont have rails cant use the attachments, but in the meentime most every other gun is that simple.

i find it interesting how you point out the lack of realism in cod. i specificaly noted that there was no inspiration to take any form of realism from cod. all i said is that there are many guns in cod and without them it wouldn't be too succesful. i also noticed that u find the need to be verbose. your lack of social intuity has directly caused my lack of caring towards your posts. maybe if you spent more time doing social things, you would have a realistic expectation to what would happen in such situations as day z.

im not 'insulting' the game mechanics. if a player choses to server hop to find a 1940's machine gun, there will be no imbalance in the game. as to the realism a ak47 is gonna be much more effective than a BAR or a luger to a m1911. if you chose to get one of the guns it puts all other players at an advantage. this is like in the COD series where they implement unorthodox items to add a challange, increase divercity and have a different feel than other items. i know cod isn't realistic but they are renound for their addictive nature and large spectrum of item availability.

look at a as50 and barret. they are both 50 cal. this means that they will do the same damage. they will both have high recoil. they will both be very loud. the slight differencials would be in the accuracy, stability and dependability (assuming there are gun problems in the standalone such as jamming and mud getting stuck etc.) so the two guns will be simmilar; however there will be a prefrence and if a player likes a variety of guns then they will travel to all corners of the map to find their desired guns. since this game is supposed to be realistic, the variety of guns would help accomplish the goal. in real life if you go into a guns store there would be hundreds of types of guns. in a zombie appocalypse, they would be horded and spread arround to create a ridiculous amount of gun variety.

the guns with more fixed spawns would be mostly atiques. the point of antiques is that they are cool looking and fun to have, but they lack the practicality and usefulness of any other non antique guns. for instance, the luger. i thing the luger looks coll and would be fun to use as i have used it in other games, however since it is antique, it would be simmilar to the macrov with worse accuracy, noise, dependability and most all stats aside from dammage which is determined from the bullet size. there would be few guns, with a small chance of spawn that would be constraingt to a certain area, from instance as i said earlier, perhaps a gold desert eagle. this gun would have no enhanced stats and would be easy to spot since it is gold. the only use for this is that its a gold fucking desert eagle. on top of this, it would have only one spawn point, and have an incredibly low change of spawn. essentialy: it is easier to find any modern guns elsewhere and the antiques would be there only for the variaty and unique factor.

Age: 15 Name: eli Skype: N/A Country: Canada Timezone: Pacific (Canada and US) Steam Name: elidude18 Experience: (7-10 see chart) 10 Game Style: I spend most of my time scavanging alone. ive been in two clans, ive quit them both, one i didn't like and one i just was taking a break from day z at the time when im in a clan i just help the clan out.

i think it would encourage shooting on sight because the consequenses of diing are much more devestating. simmilar to cod s and d where you dont respond, people care more

true, but that already exists and one player can have only so many guns. also if a gun spawns in a museum, then it will not neccesarly be in one place. also there is still a % of spawns. lastly, an antique gun will be worse than a normal one, its just a easter egg kinda thing, and a gold gun for instance wont be any better than the normal one, in fact worse cuz its visible and shiny. with this said it isn't impresive to have these on a skill base and it istn't any better so the only purpose is that its cool to have and not over powered.

often. mostly weekends 15 no, but i have been in the past, i left them. yes since a few weeks after release i help other team members when i can which is often unless i recently died. teamkilling is bad, if a member teamkills they should prob get a few day ban and if they do it again they should be kicked out of the clan. if a team member killed for the purpose of looting a team member they should be kicked imediatly after being killed.

i think it would be fun, but it would defete some of the realism and if your not going for realistic there are thousands of ideas that are better. maybe some parts can work but i dont think having aggresive pets in a zombie appocolypse would reflect the most on realism. i agree there should be dogs/wolves but just not at your pet or suicide bomber

ok so i am an advocate of having many guns implemented in the game. many can argue that it wouldn't work; however i have a posible solution. the map can be divided into sections kinda like a ven dyagram with some overlapping. since many guns are simmilar, such as two 50cal snipers are simmilar enough that if there was only one it would still work. so if there are 5 50 cal snipers, all will bes simmilar aside from looks and maybe small variations in acuracy, dependability, stability, fire rate and scopes. to implement 5 guns would make no sence... unless we use my system. the map's diff sections will spawn diff types of guns for instance, section a could have a as50, akm, mp5 etc. and section b can have a barret, ak47 (or other simmilar gun to the akm) and a mp7 or uzi or other smg 9mm. this system provides 2 things. variables to extend the new feel of the game and insentive to move around the map. if a player prefers the look, or even the stats of a gun then they can go specificaly to a part of the map to look for it. right now people are mostly in cherno and electro and experianced players in the nw airfield. with this addition people will be encouraged to more to smaller cities and create a more spacious world. this will also work with my idea with some fixed item spawns. this can include a museum in a small city without much else to offer for an antique item and also maybe a gold deagle in adition to a normal deagle found only in military in a sertain section and the gold only in a high ranking officer's office. this is a concept and its far from finished so dont critisize the ideas. i will accept if you think the concept is bad but i dont want angry comments saying that a deagle shouldn't be implimented. thaks and ill keep up the posts.
