barnabus 1708 Posted December 7, 2014 Because some people have more things in their pockets /i wish. I had a vest on with two pistols inside that took several round from an SKS, I didn't even bleed. So I figured I go with two kevlar helmets and I should be golden. Nope, didn't help even a little bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruax 32 Posted December 7, 2014 Items in pocket make you take more damage! Idk if its just for bleeding or if its for losing health.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grindstone50k 208 Posted December 7, 2014 I ruined my friend's shirt at about 150m shooting about four feet to his side with one. Pretty cool gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krawallkurt 118 Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) Shotgun Guy shot me yesterday in Hospital Staircase ....He's dead now. After taking 2 hits point blank i could still shot the crap out of him. Jacket and Pants ruined no bleeding at all. That was dope imo. Edited December 7, 2014 by Krawallkurt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was at the other end of a simmilar experience at the NWAF, Me and my buddy both armed with mp113's I shoot a guy three times twice in the chest once in the head at 20-50m~ Friend pops him at 100m~ Didnt even slow him down.

Apollo'sFire 31 Posted December 7, 2014 Yeah the damage dealt by shotties is a little discerning, you can get killed with 1 shot fully loaded, but try that against an enemy and you wish you had a different gun. But I digress, tis just a game. I will still hope for a Spas-12 or similar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TGPstolas 20 Posted December 9, 2014 shotguns suck! killed a guy at nw the other day, he had a double barrel, i had a magnum. got two shots off, breaking my legs and ruining EVERYTHING. got him in the chest with all 6 rounds. do yourself a favor, dont clear buildings with a shotgun when the other guy has a better kit ;D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blacklabel79 949 Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) one shot headshot with the repeater. I killed a guy whom was sniping in svet sneaking up only having one bullet in that Baby. dude even wore a helmet. Love the Thing since than. Shotguns Performance isent reliable, alltho the 133 makes it a bit more stable due to RoF. Edited December 9, 2014 by {Core}BlackLabel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nebulae3 422 Posted December 9, 2014 I've a M4 + two mags to it which I looted from two heli crash sites and I found it first on full servers. :)Why are people always in cities in DayZ with little to no 'rare' loot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blacklabel79 949 Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) Why are people always in cities in DayZ with little to no 'rare' loot? And what are you doing with all the "rare" stuff ? Because when you come back to "un-civilisation" its "you are dead" rather quickly given you Play alone. We did hourlong lootruns for rare shit, but for now its not worth it. I rather stalk svet/berezino/novo for 2h and have lots of contact than running to nwae for the 100th time. Sure maybe if i get super bored and have the 1-2h to spare i do it again. This dynamic might Change as soon as persistance is a bit more under control. Edited December 9, 2014 by {Core}BlackLabel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nebulae3 422 Posted December 9, 2014 Do u believe that people will stop death matching in cities - when we've more persistance items in Dayz like tents and cars and end game base building?I really doubt it, because I think many people do it,because they are used to K/D games like BF4 and CoD.When this is game is 'done' in (2016-2017) people will still take their car from their base and head down to the coast for a bit of roof top sniping. I enjoy the survival part of dayz - if I can shadow a player from a distance, that's a lot of fun without getting revealed.I sometimes place rare loots in barn etc. to other survivors to enjoy. I don't play Dayz like a BF4 or CoD game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
