DURRHUNTER 597 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) So if you are familiar with the Red Orchestra 2 you will know that as a rifleman you Mosin Nagant or K98k automatically bolts itself. But if you go into settings you can change it to where you control the bolt on your gun, making it to where you can shoot, watch and see if your target is hit or not, and make a follow up shot. This may not be possible with the current DayZ game engine, but it would make a very nice thing for bolt action rifle when you are sniping. this was a good clip i found, mind the music its not super great. But watch how after each shot there is a small delay where he watches to see if he hit his target. Edited January 20, 2015 by DURRHUNTER 22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ToySmokes 116 Posted January 20, 2015 I think this is one of those "need to have" things in DayZ right?! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Draco122 412 Posted January 20, 2015 I wouldnt mind having this as an option, even if it was available for Pump shotguns as well or anything else involving a manual action Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rybec 339 Posted January 21, 2015 I haven't used the mosin in ages but if you hold down left mouse it doesn't cycle on its own, does it?I'd enjoy manual bolting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rybec 339 Posted January 21, 2015 nope, holding down left mouse will not cause the weapon to auto-boltEither you worded it wrong or misunderstood me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DURRHUNTER 597 Posted January 21, 2015 Either you worded it wrong or misunderstood me.sorry i did misunderstand you, the mosin still currently 'Auto bolts' which means it chambers a new round after you shoot without you doing anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rybec 339 Posted January 21, 2015 sorry i did misunderstand you, the mosin still currently 'Auto bolts' which means it chambers a new round after you shoot without you doing anything.Right. I could've sworn at the very least in Arma 2 and such if you held the mouse button in it would stop the rifle from cycling the bolt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 1631 Posted January 21, 2015 Right. I could've sworn at the very least in Arma 2 and such if you held the mouse button in it would stop the rifle from cycling the bolt.I don't remember anymore was it that way but that's not bad suggestion how it should work.Though manual press to bolt could be acting as a safety also. So press a key would be better in that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibonez 3633 Posted January 21, 2015 Suggested this a long time ago. So many things in red orchestra that would be great in dayz. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Helix2000 128 Posted January 22, 2015 yeah i like it, but i think it might be a tiny bit better if this option was renamed "manual reloading" or something similar, and it was for all single shot rifles. (repeater, pump action, mosin etc.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ebrim 998 Posted March 7, 2015 As a bolt-action rifleman in RO, manual bolting needs to happen, agree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
