Really? You're skipping the most common weapon in Chernarus (arguably), to develop two fairly unimportant additions and a novelty item? Indefinite hold? Wow, I'm pretty disappointed. You have the model, you have the PBO file in place. You've shown us multiple attachments for it, yet you decide to put it on hold? I mean, come on.

Window Licker 504 Posted March 12, 2014 HELLS YEAH BOWS AND PHYSICS! That means your corpses will rag doll after I kill em! As well as mine when you kill me.It also means when you walk down stairs and break your legs you'll rag doll the rest of the way and broken legs will turn into broken neck, should put an end to complaints about stairs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zjasuu 337 Posted March 12, 2014 No idea why everyone is so excited about bows, they're gonna suck anyways. Seriously, it doesn't matter what the game is everyone just wants fucking bows? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cywehner1234 582 Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) No idea why everyone is so excited about bows, they're gonna suck anyways. Seriously, it doesn't matter what the game is everyone just wants fucking bows?Because bows have never been seen in DayZ, Arma, or any of the BI series. It takes the game to a whole new level, for hunting. So does the ruger and amphiba S, hunting weapons. Im rather excited for hunting, so why shit it anyones parade just because we want the game to be a survival game.

Zjasuu 337 Posted March 12, 2014 not really, a lot of people have been excited for bows since they were announced. I know, that's why I'm asking why everyone is so excited? Obviously you can't shoot over 20 meters accurately and I can just imagine how poor the damage will be. If they add a better damage system I might even use a bow, like if you shot someone he should first pull out the arrow before bandaging or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they add a better damage system I might even use a bow, like if you shot someone he should first pull out the arrow before bandaging or something.Because we can soonTM hunt animals, not sure if you've seen the little bunnies jumping around in the forests, and get food in a silent way without being forced into the rural areas where the people killers reside. It's going to be friggin epic :D It is a tell tale sign that the only thing some people think about when discussing bows is how sucky it will be to kill players with....so just keep your mosin/magnum/sks/m4/FX...do they really need more firearms? A bow is about to be introduced, and the people who have a vide variety of guns to choose from complain it will not hold up to the standards of current implemented weapons. And some try to argue this is not a character killing zone at the moment, hehe :| 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe there trying to balance out the AK without giving it TO MANY attachments ppl need to make it work good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zjasuu 337 Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) If the AKM is coming, not having AK74 will be fine. I'd be fine with just the SVD :3 Hopefully they don't screw up the AK though. Something full auto that can actually hit targets over 400 meters is most welcome, BTW it's ridiculous how standing affects the bullet dispersion. well not everyone uses this game to play deathmatchZ Are you saying that I am?

antonioajc 500 Posted March 12, 2014 (edited) I don't see a reason to go crying about a gun that is on hold. Plus, we're getting the AKM and the SVD, which is a good thing. So, OP, you might want to have patience and not go to the forums to cry at us. AKM SVD Edited March 12, 2014 by AntonioAJC 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AceQuat 63 Posted March 12, 2014 wait a sec, hold it... is the OP mad that the devs put one item (ak74) on hold while they develop two other weapons (akm, dragunov) instead am i missing something here? i dont understand this 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
