ClaytonN1499 0 Posted March 26, 2014 I was curious about anyone elses opinion on the areas where guns are spawned, for me since the new update I think the guns are to spread out any where you go. I also think that more guns should spawn inside houses not just areas where people flock to such as air fields, construction sites, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
preacherlr 614 Posted March 26, 2014 If you know which towns to go to, SKS, Mosin and Sporters are abundant. Without the random loot system in place, It's fairly easy to get a gun without ever going to a Military base. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ptk (DayZ) 178 Posted March 26, 2014 I think gun spawns are kinda silly atm. We should just spawn with whatever guns we want, just like in cod. I know, i know alpha and all, but it's something the devs will look into soon i imagine... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duenan 226 Posted March 26, 2014 I found a mosin and sks in two unlikely places. Mosin in a gray barn and an sks inside a green and orange little house Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibonez 3633 Posted March 26, 2014 Not only are gun spawns dumb at the moment so are weapon magazines. Pistol spawns in particular are poorly handled. Spawns should make sense so when you see a m1911 you should see items that would be stored with it nearby within a foot of the item. a single loaded magazine or a few or a box of ammo with the weapons ammo should all spawn in the vicinity.

ptk (DayZ) 178 Posted March 26, 2014 lol noWhy not? I mean it's probably just that the devs need to optimize the engine like they have been saying, so it's obvious dayz isn't going to be as functional as cod at this point. That's why it's an alpha silly lol... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would you turn a game like Call of Duty into, let's say, an underwater only playstyle for the fish AI to be working properly. Why? Cuz alpha. Also, I'm sorry if this seems offensive but I laugh at your select weapon suggestion. Items are earned, not freely given. Unless you're one of those softies called "Heroes" that give items to fresh spawns for the lulz. Edited March 26, 2014 by AntonioAJC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rosebud 35 Posted March 26, 2014 I don't know if I just have really bad luck but I just cant find any no matter if im in towns or military bases Look for police stations and two story buildings with a wooden enclosed balcony over the front door in the towns. These will yield you weapons and ammo. As to the spawning of pistols...I have literally carried three different pistols around for hours repeatedly finding the only ammo type that doesn't fit into any of them. I have also run around for hours with three pistols loaded with one bullet in each, as I search for clips. If anything about weapon spawning needs to change its the lack of weapons like axes and hoes found in spawn zones. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted March 26, 2014 With police stations in every town (not to mention piano houses, houses with the arch, office buildings, hospitals, fire stations, factories), there are plenty of gun spawns outside military areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whyherro123 2283 Posted March 26, 2014 I too believe that you should spawn into the map (preferably when new), with at least one of the new items the devs want us to play about with (ie. test)........ON THE EXPERIMENTAL SERVERS ONLY Having us find the shit in order to test it is illogical and really, a rather inefficient way to test new items. Have them spawn into the world as normal, to test their spawning abilities, but let us try the damn things out, so we don't have the next next-to-useless sawed-off shotgun on the stable branch.Also, I agree to above that you should find ammunition near a weapon.

Maybe an admin should go over to their house to deliver the ban and slap them silly. Piss on the doormat too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Publik 404 Posted March 27, 2014 (edited) Yeah, let's turn a survival sim into CoD!Wasn't he saying "as functional as CoD"? Love it or hate it, CoD does arcade shooter very well and the games are very smooth. As for the guns, did anyone notice the pre-Elektro-gear-up-station in Kamyshovo? There's another one in Staroye that no one probably uses. Your best bet for spawns is to get the 3 valleys one, loot the farm house and the yellow house and fill up at the pump, then jog to Staroye and gear at the police building there, head down to Kamyshovo and maybe get an easy kill at douche-bag rock and the police there, then jog into Elektro a changed man.
