Less weapon spawns / rare ammo

[z0mbie 33]

Been playing DayZ mod a long time and one of the best times I had was playing a variation of the mod called DayZ Redux. This mod didn't add much, but what it took away made it awesome. Sniper rifles were almost non-existent, military weapons were very hard to obtain, even finding a Lee Enfield was like coming across the Holy Grail. This might sound boring to some but what this did was make firefights a lot more tactical, even when fully geared you had to decide if you really wanted to potentially waste that really rare ammo or run and hide.

 

I think what I'm trying to say is, I'd like it if DayZ SA tried to keep the game from turning into Wasteland mod with zombies. If ammo is really rare, it becomes a very nice currency to trade with and lessens the chance of players wasting it on coast spawners. Also keeping away from the high tech stuff like modern assault rifles, Night Vision and Thermal Optics is good for this game, more half broken weapons, diy flashlight attachments and flare usage please.

I loved 2017 - which was similar.

Agreed. Hopefully it won't be long before we're lucky to find that M4 or Mosin.

I wish Wasteland hadn't turned into Wasteland. It used to be a decent mission, now it seems like every populated server has TUSKS and Ospreys coming out the ying-yang.

 

 

tl;dr, reduce the amount of high-tech weapons and ammo. Why not.

I can't remember what mod I played but it had DayZ in it and was the most popular mod out there. Very fun, only problem was gaphics.

Very interesting. Would read again.
