bananana00 14 Posted June 2, 2014 Would you ever want a pillow to be a death machine ?! Then you will be able with my idea :D !!!Being able to find pillows around houses or any other items that would soften the gun shot would be great implantation because of the possibilities of a improvised silencer. The improvised silencer would not be efficient as the normal one but better for silent kills without the need of scavenging for that long but it would have a limited use. As the normal silencer are yet not working its still be great feature in the future updates to have a pillow working as a gun shot softening device, or any other items that could do that.

plexico 386 Posted June 2, 2014 There's no seal between the barrel and the diffusion the pillow would offer, so the pillow wouldn't even do anything. Furthermore, supressors merely muffle the sound that comes out of a gun firing because the gunpowder exploding is what causes the real bang. In reality suppressors do almost nothing to silence the weapon and it would still be very loud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know this is "just a game", but let's face it; can a pillow REALLY silence a gunshot? From my understanding, if I can hear a little kid screaming through a pillow, it probably can't silence a gun shot (which is MUCH louder mind you). There's no seal between the barrel and the diffusion the pillow would offer, so the pillow wouldn't even do anything. Furthermore, supressors merely muffle the sound that comes out of a gun firing because the gunpowder exploding is what causes the real bang. In reality suppressors do almost nothing to silence the weapon and it would still be very loud. They work a little more than you think. The sound the shooter will hear is going to be a LOT louder than what the unlucky chap at the other end of the gun would hear. HOWEVER, this does not justify those 007 games where you could shoot a silenced pistol 10-20ft away from a person and he wouldn't hear you, as that's completely impossible. The shooter is a few inches (as well as behind) where the ammunition is discharged, whereas the enemy is farther away, and in front of the gun. Suppressors serve as a device to muffle the sound of discharged ammunition, as well as a flash hider. The hardware does not do ALL of the work however. The ammunition used is specially made to fly at reduced speeds to eliminate the supersonic crack you would hear if you were fired at.

Damnyourdeadman 1045 Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) *Note to self*"When a zombie apocalypse breaks out,always have a pillow"Come on dude,seriously?Truth is i find it highly unnessecairy to further elaborate on this suggestion,but here goes: Who on the right mind would carry a whole pillow for the purpose of muzzling his shots rather than crafting an impovised suppressor?

And suppressors make a 308 sound like a 556. A 556 sounds like a 22. A 22 sounds like a clap. I do believe that do their job. But then again, Ive only fired suppressed weapons.

What I am saying is it is still very easy to hear a gun shot and tell that it is a gunshot from a distance regardless of how many pillows you stack up on it.

Cuqah 22 Posted June 3, 2014 I really dont think carrying a pillow around for the rare occasion i have to shoot a zombie would be the best choice. like damnyourdeadman said i would much rather craft an improvised silencer, maybe it would only work for a certain amount of shots, depending on what you use to make the suppressor. better the materiel the more shots that can be fired until it doesnt serve its purpose anymore.

nexventor 429 Posted June 3, 2014 Will we need improvised pillow ammo? Instead of filling the bullet with gun powder cause that shit is so loud, we fill it with the insides of pillows. Feathers ones, because they are premium can do more damage than the cheap cotton fluff ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry XDPillows work to muffle pistols with subsonic rounds, and 22s. Not much more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bananana00 14 Posted June 3, 2014 (edited) Personally if i was in a house and there was a bed with a pillow, I would use the pillow because surly the dayz server will be more efficient in later version which equals more zombies :), and you dont want a horde of zombies coming to you.
