yorkmorgan 191 Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) I just read Pyrozite's 'The Soviet Connection' thread and thought i'd start one on a similar theme. I've recently been looking up the weapons and camo's of the Czech military and some of them would make great additions to dayz. Weapons:Variety is the spice of life. These rifles are far superior to the SKS and AKM, they are better made and are considerably more accurate than their soviet counterparts.VS 52/57: fires 7.62*39mm and 'feels' much like an M1 Garrand, this rifle is a step up from the SKS.VS 58: also fires 7.62*39mm and looks a lot like the AKM, however this rifle is internally completely distinct and is a step up from the AKM. Heres a pic of a SKS, VS 52/57 and VS 58 (top to bottom): Camo's: Have a look at these links: Modern Czech Camos:http://camopedia.org/index.php?title=Czech_RepublicOld CSSR Camos:http://camopedia.org/index.php?title=Czechoslovakia(I think that these old CSSR camo designs are particularly 'fun' and unique and I can see them fitting in very well with Chernarus.)

King of kong 1117 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) DayZ isn't set in or near the Czech Republic and the CDF use old soviet AKs and TTsKO. I wouldn't like to see it get too "Czechey" because it would take away the lore for me Edited March 25, 2014 by King of kong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirdthorpe 87 Posted March 25, 2014 Dayz is set in the area of Ukraine/Russia. Its a half-day drive from Czech Republic. I see Czech weapons as being plausible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antonioajc 500 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) Chernarus is actually in borders with Russia so I don't think it would have the same history as the Czech have. The only thing that connects Chernarus and the Czech Republic is the landscape. Also, I would recommend another thread which is the "Soviet Connection". http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/162621-the-soviet-connection/?hl=%2Bthe+%2Bsoviet+%2Bconnection Edited March 25, 2014 by AntonioAJC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dez1nd 2 Posted March 25, 2014 chernarus is set in czech republic (but maybe 40 years ago) .I think Elektrozavodsk is "Usti nad Labem" .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SGT. Kalme 106 Posted March 25, 2014 chernarus is set in czech republic (but maybe 40 years ago) .I think Elektrozavodsk is "Usti nad Labem" .. Antonio is correct, however. It is taken from part of Czech Republic but actually represents what it is - a fictional post-soviet country. Chernarus by name would be reference to area that is inside the boarders of Ukraine today. It is set in 2009 according to plot from BI Studio. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King of kong 1117 Posted March 25, 2014 chernarus is set in czech republic (but maybe 40 years ago) .I think Elektrozavodsk is "Usti nad Labem" ..No. It's modeled off a location in Czech Repub, but in the lore, the map is the Northern Province of the fictious Republic of Chernarus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yorkmorgan 191 Posted March 25, 2014 Out of interest what do people mean by dayz lore? What are the sources? Because I know for sure that the map comes from north Czech Republic but am clueless when it comes to lore because I've never encountered any. What do you think of the rifles and camos though?

What do you think of the rifles and camos though?Arma 2, which is what the map was created for. Chernarus was part of the Russian Empire and Soviet Union. I will send the Official chernarus page-thing link later, if i remember to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
