Ammo spawns and there rarity.

[random_stuff 6]

Hey! Just an idea i have read that mags wont refill when you log out and in. If that's going to happen you have to make all mags allot more common. And all ammo should be able to spawn at other places the heli crash sites. Or just make the inventory bigger because if you have like a sniper one other weapons you can carry that many rounds and i you can't get them in a easy way.

[TheEstonianDude 16]

true. if the mags dont fill on a relog (hey already dont for me) then you need to make ammo alot more common. for instance, i am always struggeling to find ammo for my M9SD and my M4A3 CCO (and lets not even mention the SVD camo -.-)

I think this is a horrible idea. Making ammo rare, esp for top tier weapons, will make people better appreciate and spend more time counting their rounds, rather than sitting on a hill sniping noobs with a .50 cal. If you don't want to lose ammo, use a pistol or an axe, save the big guns for situations that count.

I agree, military grade ammo should be rare. This is coming from someone using an M4A1 SD.

[SP45M 240]

Yup the rarer the better.

Headshots are a 1 bullet kill, any weapon. If for some reason you haven't been taking advantage of it now is a good time to start.

M9 SD ammo is quite common on soldier zombies, BTW.

[Sutinen 635]

You know, this this the reason there are common weapons around...

Wow, how quickly people become spoiled. Give them magical free ammunition and suddenly they think they're never supposed to find themselves starved for bullets.

I am going to go out a limb here and guess that rocket's vision of DayZ as a brutally harsh, unforgiving, frustratingly dark and cold experience does not include the goal of "Make sure everyone always has plenty of ammo for their favorite guns!"

All ammo, not just military-grade ammo, should be a rare and precious commodity. You should be forced constantly to hunt for that next magazine or slug pile because you're under threat of pulling a click, click, click as a horde of zombies pours into the room with you. You should be aiming for headshots not because it's cool and your pretty little counter ticks up, but because you are desperate to save every possible bullet you can.

As much as I hate to tread around the "play another game" territory, I have to say that if bountiful piles of unlimited ammo for all of your favorite shooty-bang-bang toys is what you're after, perhaps DayZ is not the place for you?

Maybe make military weapons' ammo spawning less frequent but make ammo boxes to spawn more frequently but only to locations like barracs and military camps (maybe heli-crashes). That way you know where you could get ammo but the number of locations ammo boxes spawn would make them higly dangerous to go and if you were to go alone, you would have to hoard as many clips as you can. This would also make snipers to have to do frequent trips to the north in order to get some ammo, making them vulnerable during the trip (AS50 ain't too good in close quarters in barracs).

Sadly you will lose your main weapon sometimes when you try to use the axe.

If this is fixed and you maybe could use the axe without to worry about your main gun, I do even agree with reducing ammo.

Well some times high tier guns spawn with no ammo and getting ammo is just ass hard a finding the gun again.

Thats the point. Anyway if you're mad that the game doesn't automatically refill your ammo then you're really fucking stupid.

Why do you seem pissed? I just think ammo is just way to rare and when a gun spawns with out ammo it's just as hard to find a new gun as getting ammo for the gun and that's just dumb i think some guns should be a bit rarer but ammo more common. Edited August 9, 2012 by random_stuff
