racdenis 6 Posted May 12, 2012 It is really bothering. I hit bandit with Makarov 7 times, he didn't die, he turned to me, fired all the M4 clip, I had -30k or -3k blood, ran away, after several seconds I died! Slowpoke. Same story happened to me several times. For ex. I hit bandit 12-15 times with AKM, then he killed me. WTF???It was so cool and so HARDCOOOORE, when I killed players with 1-2 shots without mod. But now... Tactics is nothing! Really nothing! Because you hit player (u stay bhind), he turns to you, spots you, dies, his friends come here and kill you! I tried to run away, it helped. They didn't catch me...Remove blood in PvP, please! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scott8295 1 Posted May 12, 2012 Are you sure you are not missing?? Makarov takes 10 hits to kill a person for me (up close) I never had a player turn and kill me cause I like to snipe so after 1 shot he's kind of screwed :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DALYDHX 1 Posted May 12, 2012 blood is the reason people have delayed deaths?not sure if i completely understand but if you are talking about the delay before someone actually dies then i totally agree. I hate unloading a clip or two into someone and they turn around and headshot me because of the delay before death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
worbat 13 Posted May 12, 2012 The makarov is a terrible weapon for PVP. Never ever use it unless you have to. Seriously I mean it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yozr 4 Posted May 12, 2012 It's actually more like ping issues , how else you can explain that in diferent types of sittuations you just oneshot people , while others with same amount of blood stands still?Plus in pvp blood really works other way than in pve.

kanrath 0 Posted May 12, 2012 I've emptied entire assault clips point blank into someone prone only to have them then shoot me dead, and then die. I've also died from being shot once but still had 9000 blood left. So over all it can be a real pain to be someone with a very low ping fighting someone with a high ping as the person with high ping can often stay alive well after when they should of been nothing but a bullet riddled corpse.

Alex (DayZ) 8 Posted May 12, 2012 You spawn with a Makarov because its a weak hand gun, its low caliber, quite quiet but its never designed to take on full, military-grade armed survivors. The makarov is simply a means of light self defense, the magazines in it are precious until you find more or find a primary weapon.TL;DR The Makarov is given to you so you can survive and find better equipment by killing zombies in towns. Don't try and take on fully armed players with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kanrath 0 Posted May 12, 2012 I was using an assault rifle with 7.62 nato rounds. The fact he some how survived that full clip point blank.. O.o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex (DayZ) 8 Posted May 12, 2012 Never experienced that problem before, people I've shot have died almost instanteously. Could be ping problems? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kanrath 0 Posted May 12, 2012 Possible, but the fact he would die right after he killed me leads me to think it was the blood+ping that led to him managing to get off an entire clip before he simply dropped dead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
