tinroofer 23 Posted May 23, 2014 We can't talk about all three? I know I sure can... And the objective of this thread is to highlight two things... One, that the mod didn't have all that many weapons in the first place. Two, that we're getting close to matching the number of firearms that were in the mod in the Standalone. Oh.. alrighty then :) I've noticed that the weapon selection is getting better in SA for sure, but whenever I see a weapon being added I lose my excitement pretty fast when I remember how most things shoot atm :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
law1977 17 Posted May 23, 2014 I think it makes sense to have mag or two with a weapon, empty, cause in theory the person would have been using that weapon would have emptied is gun out before coming overcome with zombies. So it would make sense to have an empty clip next to it, could also have gun racks in barracks and housing which have guns there but no ammo cause they were kept seprate. and the longhorn look awesome, i snipe quite a lot so it would be a poor choice as backup weapon, need something to clear rooms with. I like a good wide range of weapons but like people say if they are to similar whats the point. I am hoping now hunting is coming is for some more hunting weapons as well with a scope.

victusmortuus 1074 Posted May 23, 2014 What? None of those weapons, with the exception of the since-removed M107, were ever in the vanilla DayZ mod. Vanilla has no flavour and can only be considered when there's no Chocolate :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
captainvette2112 84 Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) What? None of those weapons, with the exception of the since-removed M107, were ever in the vanilla DayZ mod. Vanilla sucked compared to some of the other MODs that came later, so there's that. Its funny that when some people bring up the Vanilla they act as though that is what has been driving the DayZ hype when EPOCH is FAR more popular then Vanilla ever was. The success of EPOCH is what has pushed the hype of this game for the last year Edited May 23, 2014 by captainvette2112 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Epoch was pretty darn good it laid a platform for a server admin to customize the experience in any way he wanted. I am pretty sure they are going to be winning the Make arma not war contest and going to pocket a nice 200k euros in the process. Great contest btw Bohemia should do more contests like that it kick starts the modding community and brings forth innovation. Such a marketing move would be great for Dayz too so that we can get some competent mods for it . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't say/insinuate any of that. I'm comparing the vanilla mod to the Standalone in this thread... You can make one for Epoch though! That'd be fun I bet!
