soulfirez 901 Posted January 25, 2014 Just wait until Bows and arrows are out.This will be brilliant it will actually be a survival game which ya know its listed as not an ubber elite death match. People will still kill people they will just be doing it in other ways maybe throwing spears shooting arrows making traps hopefully . You will get you guns and when you have them try hold onto them when some crazed hiding in the bush survivalist sees you walking past in ya nice military outfit m4 slung over ya should and he sticks a couple arrows in ya back ( arrows a little harder to hear and thus detect where there coming from even though the range is lower. Bring it on Rocket i for one am ready to survive the world you make not just the straight KOS player who finds his guns way to easily ...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grimey Rick 3417 Posted January 25, 2014 I honestly do think allot of the ppl that play this are around 12 years old though. Seriously its so damn frustrating farming for hours finding things that may be hard to get and being careful just to get KOSed by some lucky bastard with an M4. I even tried some interaction and was met with shots rather than trying to start any kind of human interaction. Agreed, that is very frustrating. Unfortunately, it's also part of what makes the game fun! At least for me, anyway. You never know what's going to happen. :3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Demoth 366 Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) Currently, melee is pretty broken because of desync and choppy animations. I've axed so many people who were not even near me, or weren't in front of me, I've missed people dead center of me, and been killed by people who seemed to be moonwalking backwards at me.... and my comp normally handles this game well and I don't have these problems in firefights.I heard the animations are much better than the mod, but this game is not Chivalry: Medieval Warfare and I doubt it ever will be that smooth and precise (I mean, I hope it does get that smooth!)Engaging in melee with someone is incredibly risky and a crap shoot for both parties because if the game decided to lag, or some desync happens, you're going to take an axe to the face from someone who APPEARS to be rubber banding 10 feet away with their flank towards you.And I've heard a lot of people claim about how super 1337 they are with melee and how they took out 3 guys with M4's with one blow each because they've learned the melee mechanic. I've engaged those same guys in an axe fight for bragging rights and won most of them by just mashing left click and wildly moving forwards and backwards.... not because I'm some melee weapons expert.EDIT: spelling and fixing my phone's auto correcting words into things I didn't want.

Maca (DayZ) 769 Posted January 25, 2014 I foresee a lot of "William Tell" humorous moments, with a few casualties. Lets hope they add the crossbow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grimey Rick 3417 Posted January 25, 2014 Not when almost ALL your gear is fucking pristine after hours of looking. I know man, I feel your pain. I really do! I changed my thought process after acquiring pristine-in-every-way gear for the tenth or so time, when I asked myself, "Okay, now what?" Now when I play (at least until more stuff is added to the game), I try to just have fun with the game rather than worry about finding the best gear for every slot.

Franchi (DayZ) 146 Posted January 25, 2014 Guys the only millitary weapon in the game ATM is the M4, unless I missed something. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibonez 3633 Posted January 25, 2014 Guys the only millitary weapon in the game ATM is the M4, unless I missed something. Yea but eventually when there are more military weapons that match the locale they will be extremely rare and not common. Will be nice to see people running around with shotguns, hunting rifles, single shot weapons, 22 caliber rifles and just pistols. So glad, ak47s, ak74s, sks, m4s are all going to be extremely rare.
