Kittys Go Meoww 3 Posted April 30, 2014 So what's up with the melee weapons. Apparently you are suppose to hit them in the head now, I get that. But I always use the pitchfork now when I don't have a firefighter axe, and it took at least 50 hits to kill one zombie with it now.I just strafed around him and kept swinging high and I knocked him down a couple times.. But what the hell. Anyone else having this issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kittys Go Meoww 3 Posted April 30, 2014 Just the damage of the melee weapons need to be fixed. Apparently it's a known issue that's going to be fixed. Just now found something on it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Timmymachine109 (DayZ) 235 Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Completely agree with this....pretty sure 1 swing with a pitchfork to the head would ruin someone's skull!! Pick axe is similar and it'd definitely cave in a human's head! Spose it's alpha though so they aren't properly trying to balance stuff yet, just adding features Edited April 30, 2014 by Timmymachine109 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NagsterTheGangster 388 Posted April 30, 2014 I like the new melee system. It's perfect...........I so hope your pulling my leg there. Yes I am having same issues with mediocre weapons.Even my fireaxe wont often put em down in 1 hit anymore...although, its normally not over 3 headshots with it and they go down for good....normally. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sutinen 635 Posted April 30, 2014 It's pretty ridiculous, I thought they had at least tweaked the HUGE fucking 20 kilo pickaxe before adding it. That was a dissapointment. That should at least knock someone out if you hit someone in the upper body area. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kittys Go Meoww 3 Posted April 30, 2014 They just need to make it where melee weapons are actually viable and not make it where the fireaxe is the only viable thing to use. Before this bug, or whatever is happening with the melee weapons... Not even the machete is viable for me, took just as many hits. They keep adding more melee weapons and not fixing what melee weapons they have now. So upset much pist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 7988 Posted April 30, 2014 I've said it before and I will say it again...This is a known issue and will be reviewed (if it has not been done so already). Until then I recommend that you...Dance like a Butterfly and Sting like a Bee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
