The Community's List of Suggested Weapons for Dayz Standalone (Version: 1.29)

[DURRHUNTER 597]

Yes it is but Remington 870 is confirmed I believe. Might I suggest bekas m and auto, mp 153,some type of over under double barrel shotgun I can say a TOZ is good but any type is good. Those are russian couldn't think of any other countries with some.(for shotguns of the us all I can think of were auto shotgun.

the only thing about the over and under shotgun is that it will look like the Blaze 95 and it will function the same as the Double Barrel.

it would but many guns have a different look to them and the over under shotgun would be a substitute for the blaze especially when we can saw it of.

Granted the M14 would be the only semi-auto of those with 20 round mags, so it still works as a future addition, but the battle rifle niche will be well completed.

The M14 is select fire. If we're talking M1A we'd have Semi only.

[Chaingunfighter 917]

The M14 is select fire. If we're talking M1A we'd have Semi only.

Original M14s were - later models had the selector switch taken out because it was unnecessary. The original-type M14s still used by ceremonial drill teams as well as the US Navy where applied have no selector switch, and they're the only real reason you'd find any of those M14s in Chernarus.

 

Whether it be an M1A, M14 with no selector switch, or some super modern variant (MK14, M39 EMR, or even the M14 DMR, etc) gameplay-wise it'd be a larger differentiating factor were it semi-auto only, because we've got the FN FAL confirmed and G3A3 as another "on the list" weapon, both of which are select-fire battle rifles that typically use 20 round magazines. At that point you can only change the stats for the guns so much before they just become redundant to use.

 

Doesn't matter at this point - from what they've said no M14 variants are planned as of yet. It could change but for now we can assume that it won't be in.

[HaveADeath 23]

A Dragunov would be nice. With the lack of sniper rifles this would be a really cool weapon to have.

Have it chambered in 7.62x54

Attachments: PSO-1 scope maybe even a silencer, and various clip sizes.

Located: Barracks, Russian heli crashes, and anywhere else you want.

Already confirmed they are just waiting to release it supposedly once their central loot economy is put in.

 

All signs point to it being a hyper rare weapon with limited numbers across all servers.

we are getting the SVD which is a Dragunov. Hopefully the split between 7.62x51mm and 7.62x54mmR will be soon.

[Toybasher 27]

I am curious if a FAMAS bullpup rifle will be added, athough it would make almost no sense to find a french rifle in Cherno.

 

I think a CZ-75 Automatic pistol could easily be added, since the semi varient is already in the game.

Yes, we are getting Hatchets, I can now be Hatchet Jack :D

The signs only indicate that it'll be rarer than most of the guns we have now and it's one they definitely want to have spawn in set numbers.

 

Doesn't mean that it will be limited to something extreme like 2000 of them in the entire game, though.

2000 is not an extreme number.

 

2000 is a nice number as it would create value and rarity.

It'd be cool if they added a desert eagle into the game, along with some guns that have silencers.

[wil24567 240]

Of course, because the Deagle has a perfect reason to be in Chernarus? Far as i know, its not even used by any military or paramilitary organization.

 

And, guns have silencers.... so I'm just going to report this and be on my way. 

[rybec 339]

2000 is a nice number as it would create value and rarity.

If we go to the front page on the site we see "SURVIVORS: 2 936 626".

Now, let's be clear that I completely understand that we don't currently have three million people playing, that'd just be three million people who have played.

Let's be extreme and say only 20% of those people are still playing. We're now at 587,325 people. Out of five hundred thousand people we would see a maximum of two thousand of those people with the SVD with its spawn rate exhausted. I'm all for making very effective weaponry uncommon, but out of 587,324 other people out there for me to see I have so tiny of a chance of seeing one of those rifles I may as well pretend they don't exist. Remember, that is assuming there's only 20% of that original number still playing.

[Chaingunfighter 917]

2000 is what I'd reserve for weapons you don't want the vast majority of players to ever encounter at all during their entire experience playing DayZ, like a gold AK or something like that. SVDs are not overkill weapons that are so powerful that they need to be hyper rare - in fact a ten round old semi-automatic sniper/marksman rifle would probably be one of the more common centrally controlled items.

 

 

Unless they plan to wipe the game and move all guns down to levels like that (where basically no one ever sees even an AKM) then I don't think it'd be reasonable to have a low-end sniper rifle be so rare that no one ever encounters it.

I've seen AF honor guards with select fire M14s. It seems the Air Force never demilled their parade rifles. My First experience with an EBR was a select fire version. EBRs would be easy models to port as they can use existing values from ArmA 3's Mk 18 ABR rifle and edit it some to use existing items like the LRS and M68 and future items like the upcoming PEQ-2. Variety is good and it would be logical Super Huey wreck loot.

[star-lord252 83]

Will we get other sniper rifles after the SVD is added. Maybe the model 770 700 or vss vintorez cz 550. The vss vintorez would be like pm 73 rak rare.

Chris said that they're working on a couple of bolt action rifles in addition to the Winchester 70 that will be able to use scopes - and quite a few of the guns we have now (CR-527, Sporter-22, etc.) may also be given scopes. VSS is a personal want of mine but it uses 9x39mm ammo so it'd have to be justified with some other guns like the SR-3.

I don't think it's wrong to assume we'll get some other long ranged rifles in the future, though.

OK I see now well I know the vss vintorez has the special 9×39mm subsonic rounds. If we see the vss vintorez we can get a as val or the ots groza(for some reason the ots guns I've seen haven't had many guns made prove me wrong if I am)or the 9a 91.I've also noticed most pistol aren't very good can we get like a stenchiken APS(there are some chambers for 9mm),full auto glock. And what about that cr 75 without the thing that makes it have a suppreser being able to attach there(the one that can have a supperser attached can be more rare same goes w the fnx standard can be found any were fnx tactical helis only)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3e/Stechkin_APS.jpg/450px-Stechkin_APS.jpg having it with the stock would be cool to

http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20131120071121/althistory/images/thumb/5/5b/Glock18.jpg/480px-Glock18.jpg this ones a glock 18.

Glock would be cool - G17 would be more realistic and generally represent the series, though, but G18 would be nice for a machine pistol. 9x19mm Stetchkin is a yes from me.

 

The CZ-75 (CR75) doesn't really need to have the older variant without a threaded barrel. I mean, if they chose originally to do an 'A' or 'B' model without a flashlight rail and threaded barrel that would've been fine but it seems pointless to do another one when they can just do other pistols. A regular Beretta 92FS/M9 would be my choice pistol - doesn't need to come with threaded barrel or rail but still uses a 15 round magazine. They could also do the MP-443 Grach, a number of 9x19 Glocks, or plenty of other pistols.

 

Having a different FNP/FNX would be equally as pointless - they can make less rare .45 caliber pistols, like the HK USP-45, Glock 21/30, Beretta Px4, HK Mark 23, or Taurus PT-24/7.

[gibonez 3633]

 

Wouldn't mind a non internally suppressed ruger pistol.

 

A regular ruger pistol with a bull barrel would fit right in the games aesthetic not to mention it would share commonality with the magazines of a gun already in the game.

Would obviously be a common civilian spawn.

I like glocks there used to be one in the mod g17 but it had a flash light I want the regular one you can add attachments if you want to. I think the cr 75 should because as soon as pistol supprers come in again the cr 75 will be a silent killer. It like the 1911 and 1911 engraved engraved doesn't have much of a purpose either. I agree w you on the other .45 caliber pistols I can say maybe a taurus tracker like from the mod or what ever other .45 acp revolvers there are. Mp 443 would be awesome as well.

Clearly if they added a Glock with an attachment rail it'd use the pistol flashlight separately. Pistol suppressors are already in again and the CR75, FNX, and Amphibia are the "quiet" pistols.

 

There are a bunch of .45 caliber revolvers; Smith & Wesson 625, Smith & Wesson Governor, Colt M1917 (I'd prefer this above all else), etc.

Could definitely use some more .22LR pistols.

 

I'd like to see the Smith & Wesson M&P-22. Gives us a reason to have another semi-automatic pistol without it being redundant, and it has a 12/13 round loaded capacity so it wouldn't be completely useless compared to the Amphibia (or Ruger.)

 

Additionally;

 

Smith & Wesson 61 Escort

 

Fits the same role as the derringer but has 6 rounds of .22LR instead of two .45s

 

And, of course, the Smith & Wesson Model 17.

 

Would obviously be one of the most common weapons - though still not as high of a spawn with it not requiring a magazine.

pistol suppressors don't seem to spawn oddly(neither do other .52 items). I'm just saying when they start spawning correctly it'll be cool if we have the other variant.

Hopefully we can see more than one revolver. 22lr ones can work but 22lr is so underestimated though. Btw is it possible to import any arms 2 dayz mod weapons in to standalone. If it's possible I can be w my Lee Enfield again.
