I Ducking hate the Weapon nerf

[Yeni 53]

I'm not complaining about the Weapon damage nerfs. I'm complaining about the lee enfield. All of a sudden, The sound radius reduced, and everyone that fires at me happens to have the lee enfield. It gets annoying after a while.

Killed 1 minute ago. Nothing on me, just regular gear. I find it funny how people think new spawns have all the good loot.

lee entfield got nerfed.....

[Ramusx 11]

Lee Enfield has been nerfed to the point of it being useless.

[FaceAche 69]

It's still a one shot one kill on zombies so it's not totally useless.

[A Bush killed me 189]

gun nerf was uneeded. GG crap BI.

[ramatakahn 38]

Being a 2-shot weapon for players isn't useless.

[Powell (DayZ) 734]

Pistols are garbage now

[Yeni 53]

Eh, a 2 shot weapon isnt bad, but I forgot if the winchester was nerfed, as the winchester was a 2 shot human kill.

[M O N S T E R 599]

Revolver takes 3-4 shots to kill a zombie.

Good times.

Rough stuff. :(

[PineScentX 18]

So is there any intention of fixing the nerfs?

Wow you came quick to the forums then to QQ about it.

[lukeyu2005 19]

This is a outrage 2 shot kill sounds good in theory with the lee but more often than not landing the first shot is hard enough and being in close quarters unless you hit a player first time in the head you are dead.

It's rubbish.

People are now bullet sponge and depicting arguably the greatest handgun in history the 1911 as weak is unjust. And a disgrace to all gun collectors out there.

Undo the patch. It actually broke my arma.

I couldn't even start it. Until i i googled the problem and deleted a few files.

Enough said undo it!

who the hell shoots zombies in this game?

I dont really care, because the M1911 is still a one hitter for me.

Nah, they work fine.

Players need to stop whining at every change that makes them have to work harder and THINK more.

The "nerfs" make sense in bringing the cartridge power to consistent and realistic level compared to the other rounds.

For the past 2 years, the pistol ammunition was over powered.

And now the revolver kills in 3-4 shots >:(

[Selago (DayZ) 1]

Just to be clear, this nerf has "nothing" to do with Day Z but it's a ARMA II patch that nerfed the weapons, right?

And since Day Z is based on ARMA II....

[slyder73 94]

-MONSTER

Still a single shot in the head.

Just run into a building and get them at the door.

If all you have is a revolver, either don't get into the shitstorm, or run right through it into a building and shoot them in the head at the few second freeze for when they get to the door.

Or don't use a revolver, use the hatchet in those circumstances. One shot, and silent in the building.

I shot someone in the face from like 5 metres away last night with a Bizon PP 19 before they had even seen me, He lays on the floor and blasts me with 2 shots of something.

But yer the Harry Enfield is still worth pickiing up as like others have said above its still a 1 shot kill on zombies no matter where you hit them. Just make sure you got plenty of ammo as the noise draws them in from everywhere since that patch. Im sure they where sprinting from the NW Airfield to Berezino last night

This weapon nerfing truly sucks. More rare, military grade weapons are high powered and all the guns that freshly spawned find are utter garbage. Our group has so much guns stashed that we could start another wordl war. It gives us truly unfair advantage. Before the nerfing a smart player could win people with good guns by out maneuvering with Lee Enfield or such. Now, we can just laught as the bullets tickle while our AS50, FN FAL, DMR, M24, M14 and other guns sing. And do not forget how great heaven this is for disconnecters now. Lee Enfield used to be the anti ALT F4 gun. No more. Now you are at the mercy of gun hoarding bandit gangs. And if one of us dies, one drives to give good guns to the freshly spanwed. And if we ran out of guns we just go to night server and hunt for heli crash sites with NVG and cars.

All this nerfing thing does, is make game harder for beginners and loners and more easier to veterans.

Guess it's been quietly fixed, I killed a zombie with 3 chest shots from a makarov.

If it was in the face, they would be dead. Also the Bizon is one of the weakest guns in the game (but makes up for it for being silenced, VERY QUICK full auto, and a big mag). Shoot him more than once with a 9mm next time, he would have survived post-or-pre-patch if the first shot didn't kill him since the only chance to kill anywhitn with 1-shot with the Bizon is a clear head-shot and that has remained unchanged in this patch.

Gz to all idiots who are saying that this nerf is a good thing.

No it's not unless you are pussies who only play at empty servers and alt-f4 if they spot another player.

Why it's so bad? Because:

- it breaks immersion in real life you can't just take 10 shots from a pistol and keep sprinting in this game yes (makarov is the worst it has 7 round mag and it needs 14 hits = 2 mags useless against players)

- in pvp you can't land 14 shots without getting shot as well or having your enemy alt-f4 = garbage weapon

(yes I'm aware revolwer does a little bit more dmg but it has only 6 rounds so it's garbage too)

Shotgun are also nerfed which is ridiculous made the double-barelled 100 % useless it needs 3 or 4 shots to kill a player now but it can fire only 2 rounds before reloading, so it's a total crap

I agree with Lee Enfield nerf though, it's very easy to acquire therefore it shouldn't be a very good weapon like it was.

Imho they should reverse this, but of course they doesn't seem to care about this, and yes I know it's Arma 2 patch but it affected DayZ therefore devs should react and reverse it or fix it some other way because now you can drop sidearms for extra space.
