Guns less powerful?

Recommended Posts

I noticed after the recent patch that my 1911 isn't killing any of the zombies in 1 shot. Sometimes it takes 3, but at least 2. Was this part of the patch or just something to do with the server I was on? Anyone else notice this?

Yep. the ARMA 2 patch messed with some guns. The 45 caliber handguns are now as weak as a m9 or the glock.

Its lag. The server takes a second to catch up sometimes. Making zombies appear to still be alive after you shot them. I can assure you the m1911 is a one shot kill on zeds still. I would suggest joining a server closer to you with lower ping.

Tin cans are really more of the equivalent to .45 pistols now since you can't use them very quickly and you hold less ammo but they do more damage than 9mm pistols.

Anyway, if you aren't using an m16 family weapon, a sniper, an axe, a winchester, or an AKM, you just got shafted.

You forgot about the LMG's.

Holy crap i had no idea. Although, now that I think about it, it makes a little more sense. I tried to kill a guy with my ak-74, and it took at least 6-7 shots before he went down. (Giving him enough time to halfway disconnect, so his body disappeared).

gun nerf is a bad idea

/Sign

Think so too.

In former days i didn't take the makarov because it was too weak.

Somethings not right, when the old makarov is better than the new m1911.

It takes me around 3 shots to bring down a zed with my m1911. :/

4500 I think, since my beloved AK still kills in two shots.

I've been royally screwed with this patch: I have an AK Kobra, a M1911 and a Bizon. Yeah, way to go... Now if I encounter someone with a M4/16, they have the u^pper hand when the ammunition is near identical, my gun is less accurate, and louder to human ears. Such a great patch. My Bizon won't kill any human AND struggle against zeds (So cool!) and my M1911 will really be only indoor and slopes.

Way to go, way to go. Genius. And great ballistic knowledge!

damage is nerfed so is view distance fog will start at around 600 meter and after 800 meters its unseeable. rendering as50 and m107 useless since the whole point of using it was to zero 1200 meter and snipe peeps.

As said, this nerf was not the fault of the dayZ dev team, it's an Arma2 patch which is nerfing the guns generally.

Hope that Rocket can (and will) adjust weapon damage for DayZ seperately.
