gannon46 788 Posted January 26, 2014 so me and a comrade get in to a lively discussion on the balance of this game mostly on the topic of helicopters but i also brought up guns. so lets get to the heart of this thing lol. he states heli's/50 cals are unbalanced that they are too easy too use and that an advantage or OP status would occur that would hence ruin the game for some.i stated that the game was based on disadvantages because in real life things are not balanced and you often are against the odds or are screwed. and i also thought weapons should be authentic rather than have a fictitious stat added to them to give them balance.(I'd rather get sniped by an accurately portrayed mosin rather than a fake).my theory being that some weapons ammo are designed not only better but for certain situations. so this has gone on for awhile and i'm curious would you as a dayz player rather see authentic weapons/etc or balanced fake stat weapons/etc. do we want authentic real life or do we want fun for all and a balanced league of legends type of atmosphere. i personally want to be at a disadvantage at times. that way if you do come out on top you got a hell of a story to tell as well as a hell of a natural body high from adrenaline.

Deathlove 2286 Posted January 26, 2014 Authentic.But helis with 50. machine guns? NO. NO NO NO NO.Helis? yes.50. caliber ANYTHING? NOOOOO!Id like to see a rare military grade mini gun in game you can obtain. Downside to wearing it would be it takes up backpack space and ammo is rare.

FishGuts4Lunch 66 Posted January 26, 2014 Deathlove LOL Shoots 3000 rounds a minute and you only have 17 rounds. Make it use the 7.62 mosin ammo and you need to collect it in packs of 20 or less. Take 3 weeks to fill 15 ammo boxes and shoot it all up in a minute. most likely you would be killed before you collected enough munitions to shoot the thing. And each of your mates can carry 5 ammo boxes if they take nothing else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flame throws would be really cool to. Especially the military grade ones. If youv ever seen the WW2 ones those flames are crazy when they shoot out of them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=HpE3OgTNq5M Edited January 26, 2014 by Deathlove Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
