SA Weapon suggestions

Recommended Posts

Yes, i know there are a million threads like this.

The Mosin Nagant And SKS have already been confirmed for SA, but here's a few that would probably be a common sight in the hands of Civilians in eastern countries that probably haven't been added

Nagant 1895 - Probably not pratical, But i have one irl, And they were sold off as Surplus in the '50s

TT-33

Browning HP

Saiga Rifle - "sporternized" Akm

PPS-43 - Would be a rare civil/police type drop.

Mauser Type - Mauser type rifles were the most produced rifles ever. Most are now in Civil hands

Pkm - I would like to see this replace the M240

Makarov PMM - (Pistol makarov modernized) - 15 round-capacity makarov

Toz-194 - Russian Semi-auto shotgun. Basically the same as the M1014.

Ks-23 - 23mm (6guage) Shotgun. Irl they are used by Russian Police and prison Guards. They can fire different Types of ammo including Non-lethal.

Tear Gas launcher - Police drop.

 

Clothing

Ssh 40 helmet - Ww2 era Russian helmet still used today. The CDF didn't se them, but the Russian army did.

Kevlar Helmet - Both USMC and CDF versions

Balistic vest - Combination of kevlar vest and Backpack

 

Vehicles

Pickup PK - Pickup truck with a PKm mounted ontop the cabin. This is virtaully useless against, say, Lone survivors, but it would give some fighting chance against Helicopters and Other cars. Would be nice if it was just a modification of a Pickup. 

New vehicle Nerfs/changes

Helis are easier to Destroy. In vietnam, Uh-1h's were Shot down by AK fire commonly, But in Arma, it takes around 5-6 akm mags to the Rotor to Knock one out.

Fuel harder to find, Tires wear out, Bullets go through the sides, players take damage from crashes.

 

Some way to fight off vehicles and heavily armed groups. Maybe an M79 Grenade launcher (1960's era pre-m203 40mm.) The thing is as big as a rifle, so it should take up your primary slot. In addition, M16 N203's should rarer. But anyway, It could fire tear gas ammo, or Similar Gas, to scare away threats. I mean, if your following a small group and get hit in the face with a gas canister, are you going to follow them? I think non-lethal weapons would reduce KOS, because the main reason i shoot people is pre-emtive self-defence. If i could tase someone, I wouldn't be shooting that guy with the makarov.

 

Shooting from cars would also be sweet.

 

Not saying i want this on release. These would be the types of things I would like to see in future updates.

 

Welp thats my maga post. Kinda went off track from weapons, lol.

That would go here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/97659-consolidated-weaponsequipment-suggestions/

 

Or perhaps that topic should go in the suggestions thread ;)

 

Either way, I believe those weapons would be perfect for the type of area DayZ is based on. Initially when the Alpha is released, weapons will be limited but soon after that will be added.

Some i don't think you will find at all. Police were issued weapons, you will most likley find AKs, Saigas, Makarovs and whatever kind of soviet pistol they have but not a WW2 PPS-43, i don't know how it is in russia but police forces usually have civilian versions of the military rifles that shoot semi only in cases where they need the firepower. Most often it's just pistols and in my country a MP5 for additional firepower. It can be a shotgun, smg or a semi auto armalite variant in the states.

Why would you want to shoot down helicopters if there are flyable at all or even vehicles in the future of the SA. It would be a waste to destroy things that can't be replaced so easily. And the SA will be about survival and less "peevpee". You'll be happy if you find a bat to use ass a weapon. To quote a player in my old group while we were playing wasteland for a change of pace.

 

I found a crate.....no weapons inside just AKs...

 

He is a M4 fanatic and refuses to use anything else not shooting 5.56 or 7.62 NATO.

The reason helis should be nerfed is becuase it gets old having some Aholes flying around elecktro shooting fresh spawns. Then, when you shoot the gunner, they just go pick him back up. If anything, make the armed helis rare, and replace them with a Medical heuy or something.

I guess your right about the PPS. But seeing as the chernarussian police are probably underfunded, and both Pps And their ammo are virtaully everywhere, i could see one being in some police station or wrecked cruiser in the smaller villages. It would make more sense than a Bizon.

Plus if therez going to be A tokarev, there should be another gun that fires that round. I like having 2 9mm's, becuase then i vitraully never run out of ammo.

 

Heres another idea: Sawed off double-barreled

Crafing recipe: double barreled shotgun, Hacksaw. 

That would make some use for the double-barreled.
