CJ_14 105 Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) Today I joined a server (sorry guys, it was a private so I don't know about the wipes), a full server but I spawned somewhere north and it was totally empty. Find myself a Shotgun, tools, a Crossbow with scope, a nice backpack and a Makarov...then I found some .380 Auto Rounds and tried to chamber a weapon that EXPLICITLY says that is chambered in .380 Auto Rounds only to get a message that it doesn't fit there (that's what she said...ok, no). Is this a bug or did I became dumb and I'm missing something? Edited December 20, 2014 by CJ_14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First time I pick up a Makarov. I have the feeling that they're as useless as in the mod, so I never pick them up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruax 32 Posted December 20, 2014 I guess you will have to go get a mag first. Never had the problem.. o; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted December 20, 2014 I haven't managed to find a magazine for this gun yet, so I haven't tried it out. But if it is on par or weaker than the 9mm pistols in this game then I wouldn't bother with it. They are quite useless and you would be better off using that sledgehammer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this a bug or did I went full retard and I'm missing something? You need to find the mag for it; I have one but keep in mind it is quite weak. It took multiple shots to bring a zombie down. i just have it until i find something better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vitorsa 32 Posted December 20, 2014 That is a know bug, about people that says that makarov is uselles, well i dont think so, ive managed to kill some people with it, but aways aim to the head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGoodGuy 9 Posted December 20, 2014 Don't bother with the Makarov. Totally useless. I shot a guy once in the head with a Makarov (close range) and he didn't even go unconscious so I shot him five times in the chest. He fell down and went unconscious. Anything with .380 Auto is a waste of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CJ_14 105 Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) I personally like 9mm, but in the game they seem to be so much weaker that in real life. Anyway I'd stick to the M1911 until a Glock makes it into the game PS: Dropped the Makarov for a 2 Barrel Edited December 20, 2014 by CJ_14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McWendy 675 Posted December 20, 2014 Finding makarov clips all over the place. Gun is fine imo. 1 shot for Zs en not that bad in pvp either. No problems here. Ofc the 9mm guns are a bit better but id rather fire 8 rounds of weaker caliber then 1 shot with the 1911 for which i cant seem to find clips.
