hombrecz 832 Posted June 26, 2014 Yes because the way a gun looks is important right. Yeah but still, Skorpion looks way more badass wouldn't you agree?Anyway I'd like both of them in game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katana67 2907 Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Yes because the way a gun looks is important right. You're joking, right? You are... you must somehow not be sarcastic... You must be joking... Because your entire dismissal of railed weapons is basically to do with nothing but their looks. Edited June 26, 2014 by Katana67 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibonez 3633 Posted June 26, 2014 You're joking, right? You are... you must somehow not be sarcastic... You must be joking...Because your entire dismissal of railed weapons is basically to do with nothing but their looks.Actually has nothing to do with their looks. I actually find a lot of those mall ninja guns quite nice looking just not practical. It's about the gun feeling right compared to everything else in the game. I mean how jarring would it be to see a dayz survivor who is dressed like a hobo running around with a fully kitted out scar or vector smg. It would just look silly imagine if the movie the road had the cannibals running around with barrets and tavors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Several things, which I've demonstrated before... more than ten times over... 1. Any notion of a "feeling" of a weapon's "look" is purely, and utterly subjective. Nothing wrong with that. But you have to apply that subjectivity in a consistent manner. It's not something based in fact, realism, or actuality, it's just your own personal preferences which are no more valid than anyone else's. 2. Practicality? It's far more "practical" and "utilitarian" to have a flexible mounting system than not. Adding attachments that you find useful, adds capability (not effectiveness). Pure and simple. 3. Not that jarring? Because it was the case in the mod, and I never had an issue with the weapons in the mod (save for a few which were removed due to "balance" concerns). DayZ isn't, and never was meant to be, "The Road - The Game." And even then, you're saying "it would just look silly"... which is ENTIRELY to do with the weapon's look in context. + 1 reali-tard points Edited June 26, 2014 by Katana67 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
falcon1439 20 Posted June 26, 2014 I know everyone will hate me, but I hope the PM-63 will fire 9x19mm rounds. I don't have the time to play this game all day, and if there are too many calibres, I just won't have the time to find the necessary gun and ammunition. I know realism is all and good, but I don't live in the dayz world 24/7, I play it as a game now and then. I want to be able to loot within hours, not days.

falcon1439 20 Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Heh this comment did the perfect job of showing why the guns need the correct calibers and thus make the game a tiny bit harder. So players with little time deserve to not enjoy the game? EDIT: Bean King, you seem to be an advocate for complete realism. Whilst I respect that, it can never be truly realistic for a variety of reasons. I don't wish some things to be completely realistic and other things not to be, it would ruin the immersion. For example, you can recover from being shot by bandaging. Obviously, this isn't realistic. I don't think variety of calibre's should be so realistic if other features aren't. This game needs also to have some fun in it, perhaps at a cost of realism. This may mean less time looting up. After all, why shouldn't the game have some fun?

gibonez 3633 Posted June 26, 2014 So players with little time deserve to not enjoy the game? In a sense yes. It just demonstrates that some people are willing to live in unrealistic and unauthentic gameplay elements if it means it makes the game easier for them. Such things just hurt the game just because you want to find loot quickly does not mean the game should suffer because of it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hombrecz 832 Posted June 26, 2014 So players with little time deserve to not enjoy the game? Would you advocate dumbing down chess, because you dont have enough time for proper session? DayZ mod was never about "quickies". Dayz gameplay is long and often tedious, you run through woods "forever", that is a part of game. If the formula changed drasticaly, many DayZ mod players would get angry and for a reason. I am sorry to hear you no longer have enough time to play. I can understand that, I have small kid myself, BUT that is not reason to change DayZ into "insert your generic FPS here". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chaingunfighter 917 Posted June 26, 2014 Dayz mod was checkersDayz Standalone could have potentially have become chessSadly stand alone is currently connect 4. Well, it isn't really a fair comparison considering the standalone's only been out for 6 months and in development for a little over a year while the mod's been out for years and was built mainly on assets of a game that came out in 2009.

hefeweizen 254 Posted June 26, 2014 Old boar looks really ugly also they should add some proper sniper gun like barret 50cal. I want see 50cal. ammo in game I had enaugh to see weak guns give me powerrr. B)Make it realistic, so that you pass out trying to lug it around on foot and if you try to hip fire it'll break your god damn arm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hombrecz 832 Posted June 27, 2014 lol, dat color on the tents. It'll be pointless to pitch one when vehicles come to the game. Except the tent will not require fuel to work, will not require looking for several parts to make it work, tent will not alert nearby people by sound etc....and I believe tents will be in several colors :-).

JPWiser 251 Posted June 27, 2014 Coming from someone who cares alot less about the specific realisms concerning the guns. One of the most enticing things was the way you could customize your weaponry moving from the mod to the sa. Not knowing alot about the details with each and every gun, ammo sizes and \ or attachments, I can say the attachment system was something i listed as a plus. And unfortunately for all you gun wiz's out there I can bet the mass of players doesnt know nor care about if a suppressor attachment could actually fit on that gun, they just take some joy out of being able to customize their stuff, therefore finding some fun in the game. As long as its not completely out of control, I dont see why we'd sacrifice fun for the masses just to achieve some specific menial detail about realism. Meh its that ole argument of realism vs fun.
