harken (DayZ) 57 Posted July 22, 2012 Hey campers, I'd like to see the above mentioned ammo/weapons added to the game, only to be found at military spawns where they would be used in "training excercises"What these items will allow us to do is train with our allies in game without killing each other. I know the idea sort of skirts the border between reality and fiction, but they would also be really useful and lots of fun.One pistol version and one rifle version, akin to the m19 and say, AKM and that would provide enough training opportunities for most people. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gotham 15 Posted July 22, 2012 I would be interested in seeing this feature, but there could be many issues with getting yourself spotted, misfiring real guns, and all around possible bugs. Possible when undeeground structures are added (aka player housing) it will be possible to build a shooting range or paintball course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thortimer 37 Posted July 22, 2012 You could even use them as a distraction for zombies. Getting zombies to investigate the splatter of a paintball long enough to sneak past a mob of zed in front of the firehouse? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haplo (DayZ) 44 Posted July 22, 2012 This would be a great way to let off steam with your crew!!! Plus many other funnies.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeromentor 169 Posted July 22, 2012 m19Last time I checked we didn't have .357 revolvers ingame.Anyhow, I could see chalk rounds, but it's not really something that should be in DayZ. If you need to train your fellow groupies, it is probably best to find another approach to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prometheus111 1 Posted July 22, 2012 If you need to train, go play some Arma 2. Why make it more complicated than necessary? lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haplo (DayZ) 44 Posted July 22, 2012 If you need to train, go play some Arma 2. Why make it more complicated than necessary? lolHopefully one day this game will be standalone. Then, paintball guns can be used for surviving and banditry alike. Paintball to the face = fucked up eyes, someone moves in and handcuffs the victim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3rdparty 229 Posted July 22, 2012 yea i dont see why not,If ye get a heat shot it should be similiar disorientation to whiskey bottle or tin can. And any of you who start fidgeting at the thought, clearly havnt been shot in the head with a paintball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
