jsteph87@live.com 1 Posted July 4, 2012 Posting this here as it will get a lot more traffic in general than in suggestions.Certain weapons taking up less space in a pack would make them a lot more useful. I currently carry two weapons with me, a DMR and a M4 CCO SD, and switch between them as the situation requires. I would rather carry a smaller silenced weapon that the M4 as I primarily use it to deal with Z's because the M9 SD sucks donkey balls. Unfortunately, the logical alternative to the M4, the MP5SD, takes up the exact same amount of room in a pack as the M4 does.Pistols take up too much room in a pack as well. A car wheel takes up six slots, but a Makarov takes up 5? That makes very little sense.Basically my idea would be to make pistols take up 3 spaces instead of 5 and for the SMGs to take up 5 instead of ten. This would make SMGs much more useful, and make putting a pistol in your backpack much more realistic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strategos (DayZ) 190 Posted July 4, 2012 Different weapons need different slot sizes I agree.A Barret and a Bizon taking the same slot space is ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trajado 22 Posted July 4, 2012 With all the crap we carry around, pistols should take up 1 slot only, if you think about it thats the only amount of slots it should take in order to be realistic.But thats not the only problem about the slot occupation of things.. A lot more needs to get reviewed.Barbed wire - 1 Slot (Dafuq?)Morphine, Shotgun Slugs, Bolts and more.. You should be able to carry them like packs.1 Slot - 5 morphine injectors1 Slot - 5 crossbow boltsStuff like that... And please.. Get a damn basket for the bike's to carry around ENGINES!!

The Cursed Red Baron 6 Posted July 5, 2012 Agreed, would be a nice thing if they could change it.A pack of Machinegun ammo needs 2 slots and a small Pistol needs 5?^^As Strategos said, it's ridiculous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canbaron 0 Posted July 5, 2012 I'd like to be able to actually switch between rifle, pistol, hatchet and flashlight. Maybe make all guns toolbelt items and nerf backpack size a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
