DayZ SA - Shooting Practice

[YassirX 54]

There is a Shooting-Range Mod for Arma2 (http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=14616) which could be used to practice with the weapons available in DayZ-MOD.

It seems like Weapon-Physics are not the same anymore which makes me wonder if I have to play Arma3 to practice with the available weapons?

Actually I wonder if there is even any method, aside from shooting ingame, to test out the weapon physics... as DayZ SA seems to be somewhere between Arma2 and Arma3.

 

I'm mainly asking because I want to practice with the M4 on certain distances with hit detection...

There doesnt seem to be any poi t in practicing with the weapons in dayz currently. I suspect the weapon mechanics will undergo many radical changes in the future patch releases

That makes you wonder, why.

 

But to clear up your question: There currently is no way to train those things other than on a live server. And I don't think there should be. To stay inthe world of DayZ: you woke up on a beach and know nothing - you will have to figure it out - this includes weaponbehaviour. You will have to test it out.

I tried hitting a Zombie at about 350m today with the iron sights of my M4, oh boy... once it had run quite a bit I managed to hit it. I guess I am no real threat, at least not to other players. :rolleyes:
