GllOST 1 Posted October 1, 2014 Hello DayZ development team. In game my name is "GllOST" (GHOST) and am trying to perfect my skills as a sniper, obviously I've been playing with the M91 Mosin Nagant rifle, which to be honest is the gun that I love so much in the game as the real life, and with the option to be able to modify camouflaged I just love! But well, what I have been proposing to the development team DayZ is as follows: Braces / Slings for some weapons in the game. As in real life, we can keep two weapons RIFLE category in our body. One attached to the back and the other attached to the shoulder by a suspender / sling. What this would do to the game? I think the big, BIG but most players would adurar the idea of being able to walk with two weapons. One as the principal and the other always stuck by suspenders / sling. So whenever we had to pick something up from the floor (loot) or whenever we had to switch to the ax or the knife that second main weapon would not "fall" to the ground and we'd have players do not always have to take that same weapon ground again and again. And another tip I have reflected enough about: Silencers, why the M91 Mosin Nagant can not use a silencer? I think the gun would be GREAT with the possibility that we can use a silencer. After all, any sniper knows that revealing your position is a death sentence. And in real life a good sniper needs a muffler to fight in City entertainment areas. I think the players in the sniper DayZ would love the idea of a silencer for the M91 Mosin Nagant. Well, this is my first contribution to the DayZ, which undoubtedly is for me already, but for the market for video games is a game of TOP. I hope to think and discuss about my suggestion, I loved seeing these possibilities be implemented in DayZ. Continuation of a good job.

nokyookami 63 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Agreed About the Sling/Secondary GunWould Be Nice to Carry a Weapon For Close Urban Area's as Well as a Long Ranged Rifle Without Dropping one all over the Place or Losing it at Login Sometimes Cause it didnt Load Right in your Handsas For Silencers not a Fan of the Idea But i Guess they exist irl (though Pretty Sure Mosin-Nagant Wasnt Manufactured With Attachment For a Silencer WOuld Be Improvised Perhaps?)Just to me Seems Would encourage to Much KOS/Player Shooting Without any Negative ConsequencesAlready to Much KOS in Game if Silencers Added For Sniper Rifles Neither Zombies or Players Would Be Attracted to the Players Always on Svets Rocks or Barazino Hills Just Downing Every living thing that Moves throughJust My thoughts on itA Good Sniper Should Be Able to Be UnLocated Without Use of a SilencerI.E. Not Firing Tons of Shots of Same Location And Not Needing More than 1 Shot on A Single Target Edited October 3, 2014 by NokyoOkami Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

a_ruttle 199 Posted October 1, 2014 This game needs rifle slings as a loot item [common item, craftable from animals too] that you need to attach to the weapon to sling it over your shoulder, but support for having multiple weapons should come after a weight/fatigue system is in place. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lelmat132 6 Posted October 2, 2014 I agree. I don't even think you need to have two weapons to put a sling on your gun, it's just cool, and maybe with different slings (one point, two point, etc) it could have a different holstering/readying animation. (If your gun has a 1P Sling, it goes infront of your body with the barrel hanging downwards. If your gun has a 2P sling, it goes on your back barrel up, etc etc.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trizzo 632 Posted October 3, 2014 (edited) Yuck. The point of a mosin is to enjoy the flash, fireball and boom. There is no other reason to own one! A good sniper needs no suppressor. If you were snipining at a range, location and tactics that actually constitutes long range sniping sound is irrevlvent. Sounds like you want to play on easy mode in city pvp. Fire church mosin isn't sniping.Slings yes. Unfortunately for you you're probably never getting a suppressor for the mosin unless they add the ability to thread barrels via workshops and add the ability to lathe your own suppressor.

GllOST 1 Posted October 4, 2014 Trizzo, you are wrong!A sniper its a range killer, yes thats true!But a sniper that want to rush into a city center needs to play on the shadows, so yes a sniper use a supressor,i have see videos on Youtube of the M91 with a supressor and they don't have change nothing on the weapon.It's not about play on "easy mod", it's about play like real life, with different options to choose our way on the game.And exist different sniper mods of play, you can camp at a florest high spot and kill of long range, that kind of gamethe supresor doesn't matter, or you can play inside the city's and use a supressor to camouflage your position.I play on servers of Day/Night and at night a sniper inside a city need a supressor, and a sniper on real life use a supressor!It's simple friend...

Trizzo 632 Posted October 5, 2014 Trizzo, you are wrong! i have see videos on Youtube of the M91 with a supressor and they don't have change nothing on the weapon. It's simple friend... You clearly don't understand the process of adding a suppressor to a Mosin then, because you have to "change" the mosin in order to add the suppressor. A "youtube video" has has not enlightened you. So unless the game adds the required tools that are needed to 'thread' a suppressor on a Mosin the game should not have one, all about the authenticity. Lipstick on a pig, polishing a turd, all saying I keep in mind for the Mosin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
