Something should be done about damage you can take

how do u know both hits were in the arm? (you dont),

i want to see damage increased, or at least the speed damage affects the player. rinsing someone with 10 rounds and then watching in horror  as they have time to react and shoot me is not cool sometimes

Never seen that happen.

Every time I got shot by someone at close range I died after a couple of shots without a chance to react. Are you playing another game?

 

And if you can read, then scroll up again and read what I wrote. There is this nice server message that tells you what's hurt, broken, in pain etc. And the only point of me that stuck out behind the tree was my backpack and as it seems my arm. Nothing else. My had was behind because in first person I couldn't even see him and in 3rd person I could turn my camera around before I died so I could watch him. And I hardly doubt he shot me through the tree ;)

by the sound of it you dotn have a lot of experience playing dayz, and i was offering a reasonable explanation/

if you are going to make such a pathetic comment as "can i read, " then all i can say is go duck yourself, and learn to play.

I watched Lone Survivor the other night - The person that was based off, Marcus Luttrell, stated:

"I got shot-fragged by RPGs and grenades eleven through-and-throughs in my quads and calves, shrapnel stickin' out of my legs and everywhere. All the skin off my back and the back of my legs was gone."

 

The human body can take a lot.

I've been playing DayZ and the Mod for quite a while now, I've just not written much on the forums.

 

Sadly I don't have a screen or video of that situation. There was no other way he could have killed me. But as someone stated, he killed a guy by shooting his foot, it seems that there are indeed different hitboxes (because we know a headshot kills instantly and the arm or leg can be broken etc) but there seem to be also a certain amount of HP that you lose by getting shot.

So at the moment it seems quite normal to die because of that but I started the thread because I think it should be changed somewhere in the future that you almost instantly die by getting shot in your arm.

 

I wrote that "can you read" because you have been the 3rd or 4th person who told me I can't know I was shot in the arm. I do know it, you can trust me on that.

The more items you carry the more damage will be inflicted to your character. (yeah this has been tested and documented by WOBO)

 

 

 

Then we have the typical PvP player that doesn't give two f*cks about their character health and run around as if the starving and thirsty messages are just an annoying bug.

Just the other day I watch a video were one of the team suddenly just falls unconscious and dies after she had an irregular heart beat.

It is not a BUG but intentional that you fall unconscious when your blood is low due to malnutrition, dehydration and injuries.

If you don't like this kind of mechanic then go play BF4 or COD.
