One of the german G36 variants in DayZ

[j4nm4nn 1]

I´d really like to see one of the german G36 variants in DayZ.

For example the G36C (picture)

 

 

 

As a reason why the German G36 is in Chernarus you could add auxiliary

packages which are thrown down by the Germans.

 

On the picture you can see the old German "Transall C-160" dropping

an auxiliary package.

-1, why would they drop weapons in a random post soviet state? I can see it spawning at crashes rarely, thats it

Realistically i can't even envision that.

 

Foreign militaries would be too busy containing their own zombie population.

They want to support them so the virus doesn´t reach Germany.

Even that makes no sense.

 

Germany has a super small military currently what makes you think they would even have the logistical capability to swiftly deliver german made guns to rural Russia.

 

Chance are they would be prepping their own defenses and or getting overwhelmed themselves. Even the US I don't see helping out in such a situation their responsibility would lie in securing the homeland and ensureing the problem is contained in the states long before they send weapons or personnel to rural parts of the globe.

I had no better idea how to bring the gun in the game

[roguetrooper 201]

You are aware that all types of guns people suggest will also be directed against those people?

[Sike (DayZ) 8]

It is standard issue military among Latvian, Lithuanian, Portuguese, Spanish, French, British, Swedish, and plenty of other foreign military units. There is no reason they couldn't be left overs from the UN reactionary force sent to chernarus as long as enough people want them in the game.

Germany sent a ton of G36's to the Kurds in Syria last year so it's not entirely unbelievable that they would do the same for the Chernarussians. 

 

The 'lore' of DayZ is fluid, we have no idea whats going on outside the borders of Chernarus. Perhaps we are the only survivors of a global infection or perhaps Chernarus is the only place affected by it and the rest of the world continues as normal. This is one of the strengths of the game, everyone's opinion on the on the causes and consequences of the infection is different and the designers try not to limit that potential. Heli crashes don't have to signify US intervention if you don't want them to, plenty of other explanations can be found if you use your imagination. 

 

Anyway I'm not really interested in seeing the G36 added because it doesn't have much to differentiate itself from the two 5.56 assault rifles already in game. I'd love flecktarn camo though, and perhaps a super rare MG3.

If they dropped any guns, it would probably be surplus G3s. Anyway, I think the AUG will be the only "European" NATO 556 rifle. Anyway, the AUG was probably only added because Rocket used it in the NZ Army. (Some reason the NZ Berret was added)

Oh gee it's not like Germany is the 3rd largest expeditionary force in Afghanistan or anything.

 

As for the G36 I'd like to see it. I believe there is a conversion kit to allow it to accept STANNAGs. Where could G36 rifles be found?

Yea the mighty German Army with their tactical broom handles.

Germany really does need to step up their military budget I don't even think they contribute their 2 percent of their gdp anymore as part of nato.

 

Germany only had a little over 5k troops in Afghanistan btw not a whole lot at all.

The G36 could very well be found in a post soviet state. Survivors and military might have been scattered in various parts of the area. Dying for various things from infected, to diseases or simply bleeding out because they couldn't find the necessary utility to patch themselves up out in the fields etc leaving one of the weapons behind.

 

The gun could have been part of some ones collection in a house or maybe the area you find it in doesn't have to be military could have been a last stand strong hold for a couple of survivors held up in the area. Its not out of the question. So lets not rule out weapons based on just geographical location alone. There are many possibilities as to why the weapon was left in the area.

g36 is sold to civilians now ?

g36 is sold to civilians now ?

What im saying is if we can get into all these military bases and police stations whos to say these guns wouldn't eventually somehow find there way into civilian areas? Also not 100% positive but i believe there was a civilian version being talked about. http://gunssavelives.net/gear/hk-semi-auto-g36-coming-soon-to-the-civilian-market/ http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2013/11/25/heckler-koch-hk243-hk293-civilian-g36/

 

 

So we could have both versions really.

If your looking for auxiliary package drops your playing the wrong game. https://www.h1z1.com/home Here ya go the DayZ knock off.

Why is there still this discussion about non-eastern weapons when it's already established that there was a NATO force in Chernarus. And the G36 is used by multiple NATO countries so it's quite possible to find a few.

There is a civilian version designed to look less "tacticool".

But still deadly as hell and honestly i really have not seen the civilian version in a game yet. Might be an interesting one for the developers to tackle in terms of another strange version of the gun to add.

I don't see the point of this ingame it looks awesome but I'd rather have the fal of full length m16.

The point is variety and preference and i believe everyone is entitled to a large array of weapons even the ones you mentioned. Just some should be rarer than others. M16s should be a tad more common than a FAL.

[Chaingunfighter 917]

G36s are used by a large number of Western and Eastern European armies, especially special operations, so it's plausible so long as it's a helicopter crashsite spawn.

 

Plus they're cool, so I say why not.

agreed 100%. I like this weapon but where should it spawn maybe adding German helicopter crashes spawning these weapons maybe, a g3 battle rifle, VP 70,mp 5,mg 3, and some German grenade I'm just suggesting what can spawn there if a German crash comes in.

G3 was confirmed I believe, or at least was on the list of things they wanted to add. Of course Chris said this well over a year ago but he said the same thing about the FN FAL in the same post, and the FN FAL is now confirmed, so I think it's safe to say the G3 will come at some point.

 

Also, the VP-70 isn't actually used by German forces, so it wouldn't make sense to come from a German-specific helicopter crash. An HK USP/P8 variant or Glock 17 would be more realistic. Hell, even the game's P1 would be sensible considering it's still used by all branches of the German military.

 

 

However, I'm pretty sure any NATO force (including Germany) is represented through the USMC UH-1Y 'NATO' crashsites, hence why we have the AUG spawning there as well, so we don't necessarily need to do a specific crash site just to have German weapons.

Yeah because the overbudged US military doesn't ever use non guns for simulating firearms in exercises ever ever. Also Germany still has military forces in Regional Command North and other locations of Afghanistan so referring to them in past tense is deceptive. Germany is still part of NATO, and their presence is not far fetched in the Chernarus civil war crisis and their zombie outbreak. Much more so than New Zealand.
