Jiggly Ritz 35 Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) So I had the idea recently to add craftable soda can suppressors to the game. The suppressor would be made with a rag and a soda can, and could then be attached to your weapon. However, due to the suppressors questionable quality, it would be limited to about a magazine's worth of shots (roughly 7 to 10 shots) before it would break, and you would have to craft a new one. It would also not be as quiet as the high grade suppressors in the game, making a real suppressor more desirable. This would be great for quick loot runs where you want to pick off zombies quietly. Tell me what you guys think. Edited April 22, 2014 by Jiggly Ritz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guppy22143 1081 Posted April 22, 2014 A soda can suppressor would be about as effective with a supersonic 5.56 round as trying to convince Westboro that Gays aren't evil with a logical argument. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MetapoliC 263 Posted April 22, 2014 I've imagined how it would look an a mosin :DD I'm ROFL'ing so hard right now. That long weapon and a can of Pipsi on it AAAA!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jiggly Ritz 35 Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) Just imagine, a little squeaker bandit walks up on you with a soda can sticking off of his gun and demands you to give up your gear, and you promptly laugh in his face and get shot! It would be amazing! Edited April 22, 2014 by Jiggly Ritz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quantum2k6 348 Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) Hello There thats as close as yer gonna get and devs are aware. Rgds LoK the core and connection barrel inside of this "can" "oilfilter" surpressor is a special part that only get sold in the usa... so how did this things come on the iland? u CANT build such a thing with just a rag and a can... u need special parts that fit exactly onto the barrel otherwise it can go really ugly... Edit: AND its an oil filter he used in the video... it has threads inside... this is not mac gyver the game or A-Team #2 so its unrealistic...

The "core" is the can/filter. But yes, rare. Note its also a .22lr. Rgds LoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SFRGaming 718 Posted April 22, 2014 The same way the M4s came in...? They only added Mosins and SKSs and made them better than the M4s so the "authentic" shouters would shut up.Entirely untrue. M4A1's are in Chernarus as a remnant of the USMC coming in to try and control the virus (ARMA II DayZ Mod Lore). The Mosin and SKS were added because they would have been common within the civilians and militia within the country itself. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy_Spider 235 Posted April 22, 2014 Search Function is a lost art...Sure if you want it go ahead.I really dont care much for suppressors, melee is silent enough. Trust me, if you are in to looting on 40 player servers with your clan, you want to be as quiet and efficient as possible. Many of us carry .22lr pistols, and our snipers don't even shoot most of the time, they just watch and tell us where people are so we can avoid them. If we had suppressors, we could shoot with no worries of enemy snipers or just normal enemies sneaking up on us and taking us out. IMO, suppressors should be fixed NEXT UPDATE. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobotype3334 160 Posted April 22, 2014 Suppressors aren't the magic "Cone of Silence" Hollywood portrays them to be. Can silencers would be even less so, so essentially pointless to add in. No thankyou.All silencers can do is change a BLAM!!! into a BLAM. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Mosin and SKS were added because they would have been common within the civilians and militia within the country itself. So....and where would that be documented? You apparently have never been on the opposite end of a gun with a suppressor. While it will makes the shot itself unhearable beyond 50-100m the bullet itself is audible and if you know how supersonic shockwaves work you will have a general direction of where the shooter is. The thing that tells you away the most inside those 50-100 meters is still the report from a gun even if it is muffled and of course the action of the gun be it automatic or bolt action ( they still make a distinctive noise ) and if you happen to be in a DayZ environment lacking any mechanical noise ( no cars for now, no working machines, no background noise caused by human civilization etc. ) where the only things you hear are grunting zeds and the report of a gun it can only be latter.
