3reeso (DayZ) 3 Posted February 8, 2014 An idea i had for those of you who want high powered sniper rifles in standalone is to add the ksvk because it fits the region.But make it so that you can only get it and use it is via finding the individual components of it (i dont know how its built) so ie you find the barrel then the reciever and the stock. Just let me know what you guys think. Cheers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
w1lg5r 70 Posted February 8, 2014 dont see why you shouldn't be able to get it normally but good idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chaingunfighter 917 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) The KSVK is not realistic just because it's Russian. Very few of them actually exist and I'd reckon almost all of them are in Russia.You'd seriously be more likely to find an M82/M107, and even those I don't want.

3reeso (DayZ) 3 Posted February 9, 2014 Guys i played the original mod and loved it but there is something i miss about being hunted by a guy with a high powered sniper rifle and turning the tables and hunting him. This game will never be call of duty i F***ing hate it when people say stuff like " ah they want it to be like cod ". Plus this was only a suggestion guys, i was using the ksvk as an idea for the mechanic of finding individual gun components that would eventually be made into a slightly unique gun.

Its DayZ, a game about surviving zombies and interactions with players, not "Sniper griefing simulator". The Anti Material rifles in the mod never agro'd zombies to the shooter and instead to their intended target in a unrealistic matter. Seeing how Dean Hall is trying to discourage the old call of duty days of ignoring zombies all together,gunning down other players, and discarding any loot they may have had, I don't see long distance rifles outside 7.62 battle rifles and designated marksmen rifles being imputed.

3reeso (DayZ) 3 Posted February 9, 2014 like i think i said i suggested a mechanic of finding unique guns i only used the ksvk as an idea.Also half of the player interactions are still getting shot at or being beaten to death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrLoK 16182 Posted February 9, 2014 Hello there The SVD is far more "fitting" than the KVSK IMHO, but even the SVD I feel is a little OP for the DAYZ "feel". Rgds LoK 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted February 9, 2014 I think we need some serious advanced mechanics put in place, in order to allow anti-material rifles into the game. The way .50 caliber sniper rifles were used in close combat as rail guns in the mod was just ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3reeso (DayZ) 3 Posted February 9, 2014 like this? Yeh like that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
basinox 300 Posted February 9, 2014 Dragunov's seem slightly more fitting then ksvk's but I don't realy know a lot about guns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Survivor_Sabre 23 Posted February 9, 2014 (edited) <------ Dragunov SVD, my favourite sniper-rifle. It'd definitely get my vote, even if it is a little over-powered. :) But yeah, making sniper-rifles too widely available would not be good for the game.
