rickenbacker 190 Posted March 24, 2014 Does not agree about m4, but agree about weapon issue, that's it is not like in real life at all.BTW. any weapon can be accurate if you know hot to use it In a manner of speaking, yes. But even if you lie down, support the weapon properly and gently squeeze the trigger, you still won't get a smaller group than 8-10cm out of a Mosin at 200m. An M4 should be considerably more accurate, but in the game it's like a goddamn shotgun at any range. Actually, most IRL shotguns have less spread than the M4 in DayZ. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rickenbacker 190 Posted March 24, 2014 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_the_AK-47_and_M16 *cough*They're both different weapons, but they'll both kill you. So can a rock. Anyways, I haven't noticed poor accuracy on the m4. I guess you mean accuracy while running and gunning and such? Because if I stop to line up a single shot, it usually hits. The problem is that even if you have the sights lined up perfectly on a target, the bullet still hits in a random circle, that grows with distance, in effect a "cone of fire" that's completely unrealistic.

An M4 should be considerably more accurate, but in the game it's like a goddamn shotgun at any range. Actually, most IRL shotguns have less spread than the M4 in DayZ. 10cm at 200m comes out to around 2MOA, which is unusually great accuracy for a surplus 60yr old rifle with crappy ammo. Though it is also certainly possible if you happen to get reasonable ammo and a rilfe that likes it. An AR15 with service ammo, should be in the 3-4MOA or better range. Now add better components, like barrels, triggers, sights, 'match' ammo, not a fucking Magpul stock, and you should get better accuracy. But this all applies mostly to a range where you are shooting for accuracy. The reality is that most people are much less accurate than their rifles are, especially when they are not sitting at a bench at a shooting range on a sunny no wind day.

rickenbacker 190 Posted March 24, 2014 Almost forgot about you, in the army we were issued swedish AK-4 (not a kalashnikov), galil I personally was a machinegunner Mg-3, and also we have KSP-58 I think was the model name.But the Kalashnikov I shot back in Russia was AKM. The AK-4 is a slightly modified H&K G3, the KSP-58 is an older version of the M240. Its realistic, the cones are just unrealistically big most of the time. That's what I meant, the M4 shouldn't shoot 30cm groups at 100m :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if we were told that I forgot it, but yeah, the AK-4 sucks, its quite heave for an assault rifle, and cleaning it...lets say it could take whole day, depending on the mood of our officer :D because it is literally impossible to get it completely clean on the inside.

gibonez 3633 Posted March 24, 2014 Lol this is the most butthurt thread I have seen in a while.But what's with the ak hate? Kalashnikov style rifles are my favorite design and if used properly can be an accurate weapons.Don't say a gun is garbage just because you don't like the design. I'm not the biggest fan of m4 and m16 but I don't say they are trash.Different guns are better for different scenarios. In a DayZ situation I would choose a Kalashnikov for the reliability at the cost of a small amount of accuracy. Just people believing old myths about the ak accuracy. What they do not understand is this myth steams from the type of person who typically was judged. The only reason the ak is deemed to be inaccurate was because the user was typically some uneducated peasant who had never fired a gun before or knew how to accurately fire their weapon. In reality though the ak is quite accurate not unlike any modern rifle and is quite serviceable up until 500 m on point targets and yes 1000m on area targets. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

recoil333 6 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) So you can accept that he can consistently hit a target 1/7th the width of a dime at 650M using iron-sighted 7.62 AK variant with the accuracy the best snipers to ever live couldn't even dream about achieving with a .50 cal anti-material rifle and using a gun sighting vice to hold it steady and focus on the part where he says he buried a gun for two years? :huh:Maybe this guy isn't as stupid in delusional as you, I'm sorry to say and I don't mean it in an insulting manner. Your logic is if someone can outperform you in any type of skill set such as picking up girls, holding a well paying successful job, having a high IQ and above average shooting skills (maybe more then above) its automatically not true. You do this because if you admit it is true the reality you've made for yourself will crumble because you have low self esteem and confidence in yourself and what I acheived you deemed as the unimaginable because you've set boundaries in your life and never attempted to cross them...

This is not something that is not even remotely physically possible; not even by the greatest marksman to ever live or even a robot designed solely for shooting an AK. This is not "above average skill" this is against the laws of physics and a .03 MOA at 650M is in fact substantially smaller hole than the size of the bullet you are claiming you used to achieve this. This claim is that you can shoot a .19 inch hole consistently at 650M. This tells me you don't know what MOA is and have probably never even held a gun. Way to still be trying to insult people because they proved you wrong and made everyone make fun of you when you threw a hissy fit and started making outrageous claims though ... This makes you look like a desperate idiot not a badass. Edited March 25, 2014 by Weedz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clearly it isn't against the laws of physics because its being done and I'm sure i'm not the only one doing it. I claimed I was GROUPING at 0.3 MOA a 650M with an AK variant running tech sights, so consider that to be one hole. Apparently you have no education on firearms and shouldn't be on a thread regarding improving ballistics if you have no idea about the boundaries of the laws of physics.

vvidovvmaker 16 Posted March 25, 2014 There are grammar and writing police all over the internet searching for this "promised land" of writing abominations. On Topic: I think it's fair to say that the guns performing more realistically to their real life counterparts is something we all want. A massive dick swinging contest of who knows more about guns on a game development forum is extremely shitty to have to sift through in order to find the "meat and potatoes" of this post. It is fact that a stock m4 and a stock AK47 will perform differently and have pluses and negatives each to their own. I'm sure if the developers need insight on the intricacies of real firearms and how they perform they will seek professional advice regardless of how many times we have all been to gun ranges. Conclusion? Make guns more realistic...............oh and please for the sake of them getting in the way of the "meat and potatoes" of this thread, put your dicks away.

OrLoK 16183 Posted March 25, 2014 Hello there @Recoil here's a friendly warning.stop insulting and belittling other forum members such as calling them Kids or casting aspersions on them. Also, to be fair it is odd how you say "I have no military training keep in mind, I'm just a doctor." and then say "ive been to REAL war where any gun can be a 1 shot kill" then "im a spinal surgeon with a military background" So, im not surprised when folk question you. Regardless, your posts are generally not in the spirit we like, so please start to be a bit more pleasant. Rgds LoK 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rgds LoKI'm sorry LoK, and I understand this threads been a little out of control with the recent posts involving me and other members of the forum. Those weren't my intentions.. I never meant to insult other members but understand I'm being belittled too. I do have a military background that I mentioned in a different thread, I'll acknowledge now cus you brought it to light. I did deny the existence of that here because of all the hate I've been receiving for living what I call a successful life... The more accomplishments I have (which I'm proud of) the less creditable I am apparently. I prefer not to brag about my service aswell. I care about creditable for this specific topic because I'd like the ballistic changed in DayZ and I believe its the communities job to voice their opinion, that's why we have the forums.
