mind_grenade 24 Posted June 27, 2012 Why is this thing only found in crashed heli's?I found two crashed heli's in the space of about 20 minutes, the first one had an AS50 (I jizzed) but no ammo. The next had a FAL with 4 mags, so I decided to take it as I only had an M1911 with 3, so I would have been screwed with any real encounter. And a loaded gun is better to me than an empty one. I know it uses NATO and the more common rifles like the AK and M16 are smaller caliber, but what makes it so valuable? It feels like a similar stopping power to the AKM. And why is the ammo not at military spawns? I'd love to be able to restock via DMR mags or M24 rounds like you currently can with ACP and M1911... It's a bit crazy trying to resupply the rifle at random heli crashes (although if they keep spawning like this I should be set!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gizm0 96 Posted June 27, 2012 I think there are more ammo conversions coming hopefully since a dmr mag has the same ammo type and ammo count as a fn fal mag. Also the m9 and g17 have the same ammo types but the g17 can use m9 ammo but not vice versa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macenzie 79 Posted June 27, 2012 I've never used the FAL myself but from videos I've seen it does seem to have some impressive effective range.I hope the Bizon and FAL ammo will eventually put into the normal military loot tables.We have so far found 6 FALs and 2 mags :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mind_grenade 24 Posted June 27, 2012 Yeah had a quick look on the wiki and it says an effective range of 400m. I usually use the Winny (even over things like M16) 'cos I like single shot rifles, this thing just feels a lot more powerful and longer range. Louder though :(I think it would be ok to leave the gun in heli crash loot table now I have had a bit of play with it, but at least be able to convert DMR/M24 mags to FAL given they are both NATO.

BlessedHeretic 1 Posted June 27, 2012 I recently got my hands on a bizon, I dread the day i'll be forced to use it. 64 round clips will extend my usage of it, but seeing as i only have 2 once 1.7.2 rolls outs and my ammo count is locked in place (Cheers for that :D) It'll be a very hard weapon to retrieve additional clips for without some change to loot tables. I mean sure I could tent it, but I love the damn thing. It's like a uber crossbow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
naizarak 41 Posted June 27, 2012 the fal is basically a dmr without the scope. seems pointless to have the fal, m14, and dmr all together though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
