50's, L119, or none?

Nice! Drive even more players to customized private servers!

This is like the US government. Take away the things we're accustomed to just to appease a few loud mouths who think they know what's best for everyone.

If you take all the guns out, no one will have to worry about being shot at all. Can't get more balanced than that eh?.

Hurrrrrr you're removing the most overpowered guns in the game! DURR hurR DuRrRRRR! YOU'LL TAKE THEM ALL AWAY NEXT!

That's exactly how you sound.

My personal opinion from playing the mod, is that it happens to limit the actual human encounters we have with eachother, becuase so often there are people waiting in hot zones just for the sake of a sniper kill. It is an easy, yet patient (boring, IMO) technique.

Now I understand that there are ways to tactically maneuver around situations like this (under fire from afar), but those techniques might be to much for someone new to the system, if you can grasp what I'm getting at.

I think that either one of two things sould happen in the stand alone game; sniper ammo is very rare or snipers are limited to a certain range of guns, likewise with certain ranged optics.

I'd like to add; I'll still play the game, whatever the decision. I think that a lot of balance talk is going to come up when the game goes public, I hope they are listening.

To combat the overpowered weapon war that Dayz forumers have cried, screamed, bled, and perished over; we need to get rid of all the weapons and replace them with toilet paper launchers and potato guns. No wait, potato guns would be much more powerful. God dammit! That would mean we would need to get rid of that! Oh no. The toilet paper launchers are now the only gun and therefore OP! Guess we gotta cancel DayZ standalone and Dayzmod.

The object is to make the game fun, not just fun for one demographic; even if they are a majority/minority.

Those such as myself have no problem adapting to certain situations, we also relize the reality of the mob; but it would be a more enjoyable experience in my opinion, if balance was a discussion at the forefront.

also who goes in a shed or small anywhere and finds a m107 army sniper or in a tent please...

only guns you would actually ever find is ww2 rifles and odd sniper type gun and pistols and shotguns.

When have you found an M107 in a shed? I want to go to that shed.

WW2 Rifles? Odd sniper type gun? What? Just because this is supposed to be a Czech area does not mean you can only find Russian weapons. And what do you mean odd sniper type guns?

Remove them and don't replace them, they have no place in the mod as far as I'm concerned. Regarding choppers, I thought there was a rocket launcher in the mod? If it was removed then I'd rather that was put back in to replace the 50cals.. That would make more sense to me.

Indeed, I'd like to see something RPG or AT-4-esque that occupied the backpack slot as a super-rare military drop for dealing with vehicles.

I was about to start this game again but im putting it on hold.

if the AS50 get removed there is no joy for me. i love this weapon in any aspect - if it was a survival apocalypse IRL id use mine , never let go of it ^^

I dont mind when people use it and im more then happy when i get one. Id use it even if it did 1 damage per shoot.

Lets hope it stays and ill reconsider!

Come back to the BSB Network private hive, the AS50 as well as teh 107 and the Lauper are all enabled on our Epoch server.
