korpisoturi (DayZ) 127 Posted February 4, 2014 I was wondering how many shots does it take to make gas pump explode.Theres a lot of videos where people strike them with axe but haven't found one where it blows up from shooting.So I decided to test this. First time I tried on gas station near Factory/Solzhny. 200 rounds and nothing happened. Decided that its propably have been blowed up already.Second test laying on the ground and firing short bursts, pump explodes after 58 bullets (few missed) Result: it takes 53-58 M4 Bullets to blow up a gas pump. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shakes (DayZ) 15 Posted February 4, 2014 Oh hell, I am lighting up every gas station I see for the rest of time! Gonna need more ammo... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
korpisoturi (DayZ) 127 Posted February 4, 2014 Also it makes differend sound depending where you hit, don't know if damage changes depending where you hit. Needs more testing to be done at lonely gas stations across Northern Chernarus! :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

e00c 84 Posted February 4, 2014 Around 50 rounds sounds right, I went through a full 60mag. I wonder if they damage players stood near them though? Or is it just effects & sound? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't tell me that was you shooting the Electro gas station from a distance last night? A friend and I were watching the EGS last night and saw sparks coming off it. We were about 1,300M away scoped in. Bugged us out for sure. I started shooting the tanks---spark spark---then whoever shot it again---spark spark. It was like we were communicating lol. I think I recorded it, I'll have to check. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonTonino 4 Posted April 14, 2014 A few days ago me and a mate, both fresh spawns with nothing to lose, tried to blow up the gas pump north of Solnichniy using our bare fist; we got bored before achieving any results, guess we went on for 4-5 minutes at least.
