The new guns kinda suck

[BeefBacon 1185]

Wait, your objection to them adding new guns is that they're weaker than the guns that are already in-game? Jesus, I hope you never get into videogame development. You'll add in the RPG first and then you'll be forced to make all subsequent weapons more powerful.

[CJFlint 357]

OK all I will say is I want a good dam proper sniper rifle.....em k. The mosin is ok but its from the fucking 1800s for god sakes. 

 

I want to see the SVD, a barrett lol or .300 winchester...some thing along those lines. 

 

But I refuse to get into this whole the game guns suck thread to much because it is ALPHA! I know the devs are working hard to bring us more content. Its coming they already hinted at adding the SVD. If its the full release and they still havn't added more improved guns then I will start bitching.

I just hope the weaker guns get more practical lootspawns. That was the main problem with the .22 weapons. They were milspawns and utterly useless

[Deathlove 2286]

PM 73 RAK = Same as the MP5 but less powerfull, whats the point?

Wait what?! I have not had even enough scouting time to find a decent set of clips for my MP5K and there is another SMG already out? How rare is this thing and where can i even find it at?

[MadWookie 573]

#1 Because I have an FN FAL at home and i like it...

#2 it would be very simple to model it and implement in the game....

#3 what is the purpose of adding less powerful weapons to the game...why do we need the .380 added at all?

#4 ....why spawn more useless garbage.

#1 Worst reason of the year award goes to......

#2 Then why don't you just go and make your own game and do it your self?

#3 Because when the game is finished you'll be LUCKY to find one of the less powerful weapons. This isnt going to be the mod where you run into an apartment building and find an ACR.

#4 So kiddies like you can come on the forums and complain about it of course.

I think that technically, you might be correct. When the game is no longer in alpha, the alpha will no longer exist, so yes, the incomplete alpha will always be an incomplete alpha, until it becomes a beta-because then the alpha doesn't exist.

This game will not ever go to Beta. They will use the excuse "So many things dont work because it's still in Alpha" for the rest of the games life.

[JT111 23]

I don't like this guy at all...

I could care less what you think of me.

Then why are you here? If you are not here to test leave and go play army soldier on the many abundant army soldier games.

You ever heard of this magical thing called a "MultiQuote"? Try it some time.

Exactly.

 

You know its not that he wants more weapons and improved too.....I do too. Its the way he worded it like DayZ SA sucks. DayZ SA is fucking asome concept, made by some the best military simulator developers ever. It's an ALPHA PRE RELEASE!! Were lucky to witness the game be developed like this on such a large scale...serously. 

[JT111 23]

It comes out with the upcoming new patch (due soon)...im not sure where it will spawn but yes, another SMG with different and most likely impossible to find mags and a whole new class of less powerfull ammo to put in it.

[Evil Minion 943]

AK101 = same as M4 but mostly useless since ammo is hard to find

CR 527 = a slow shooting SKS

Makarov = another less powerful P1 that no one will use (like the P1)

PM 73 RAK = Same as the MP5 but less powerfull, whats the point?

The point is that weapon balance is incomplete so the values are probably not well reflected. In the end the Makarov and PM 73 RAK should have less recoil (and probably less sway) than their 9mm counterparts which might give you an advantge in close quarter fights. The problem with pistols right now is that they are basically one-shot weapons as finding magazines (let alone the right magazines) is pretty damn hard, that they need extra inventory space (as you can glue a rifle to your back using crazy voodoo magic) and that rifles are easier to find.

 

The CR 527 is a hunting rifle and probably beats the SKS at long range shots. In the end any gun you find is better than a more powerful gun you don't find so you might consider some of those weapons mid-tier items that might be swapped for better gear when the opportunity arrives.

Kiddies...LOL, im almost 40 son.

[Caboose187 (DayZ) 3036]

Kiddies...LOL, im almost 40 son.

Then act like it.

[JT111 23]

Your pointless point was pointless.

[MadWookie 573]

Kiddies...LOL, im almost 40 son.

Well in that case what are you doing with your life playing DayZ and starting petty drama because this game isn't deathmatchy enough for you.

 

 

 

 

P.S. Just because you're almost 40 doesn't mean a thing when a 16 year old is more mature than you.

I dont understand why you still play this "game" (its not yet) when you dont belive in it?

[DeatHTaX 1217]

Then why are you here? If you are not here to test leave and go play army soldier on the many abundant army soldier games.

 

Cmon let's not kid ourselves, now caboose. This game won't really be what it's meant to be til' it's done. In the meantime, it's pretty much just short of an "army soldier game".

 

I mean how many people run to "army soldier" military bases and loot up to wear "army soldier" gear and run around with "army soldier" weapons shooting at other "army soldier" players?

 

I would venture to say 60 - 70% of server pops :P

 

Although, OP, I will say you're asking for some things that the community majority definitely does not want in the game :/ so good luck with your uphill battle lol

 

edit: so I couldn't help but notice Rick's substantive yet slightly ranty thread was almost immediately reported and closed, yet you guys are letting this nonsensical drivel run on to three pages?

 

absolutely ridiculous.

Ill shed a different opinion...

The new guns do suck...but then again you need sucky weapons to make that moment you acquire an AKM a joyous occasion.

Wht they do need to fix is a lot of the attatchments for these guns only spawn in places far removed from where the guns themselves spawn.

All of the above new guns should spawn in civilian areas and so should their attatchments.

The ways things are balanced now the SKS and mousin are the best guns to start off with since u can kit them up in cities. Then u head into millitary bases in search of an AKM.

Most of the other guns are as hard to kit up as an AKM which means by the time you find clips for that new rifle odds are you will have stumbled upon an AKM or have been killed.

I've reported it multiple times. Maybe the mods are on lunch break

[Marcthomas_420 4]

I found a CR527, tried to put a PU Scope on it.. Didn't work so I threw it away and stayed with my Mosin.  :thumbsup:

[DeatHTaX 1217]

Well I didn't have to worry about you, caboose. I'm sure you typically report anything that is contrary :)

 

anyway, let this thread be done with, oh Gods of the DayZ community. I call upon thee!

[terra_young@hotmail.com 12]

Me and my Team play dayz as tactical team with banter inbetween, we look for food, water but we do hunt players for there items, if a real zombie apocalypse, I know people would throw there humanity away at some point and hunt each other to survive, we also hunt people that kill fresh spawns.

 

Just last night me and my team found a guy in one of the jails up north, we told hikm to put him weapons and backpack down and we won't kill you, we handcuffed him and spoke with him for abit, ask what he was up to, were hes from, whats in-game name, he told us his name, lucky he wasn't the "ANUSDESTORYER" on the server or he would of died right there,

 

We removed his ammo from his weapons, searched him and asked him to follow us with his gear, we put his ammo in a shed and told him to come a few miles with us. We finally stopped and told him to go and get his gear but wait 5 minutes before going.

 

He waited the 5 mins (one of our team members was watching him with a long range), he finally moved after 5 mins we moved on.

..................JT111 are you a little bit butt hurt because you died, had to respawn and lost all your shit or something? Did your gun fail you? Why all the DayZ SA hating?
