Jex =TE= (DayZ) 218 Posted August 9, 2012 Having acquired a good amount of gear, me and a mate headed up there. So we're being careful and started checking the hangers. One after another we get nothing other than crap you'd get anywhere else. Zombies seem to see us from further away when we're crawling so all we end up doing is wasting a bunch of ammo and die. The zeds just kept respawning and every building we checked was tin cans, bandages and ammo.Am i missing something? There wasn't one weapon, no coyote backpack, nothing worth going up there for the amount of zeds and waste of ammo. I'm not bothered about dying, we knew the risks and that was that but we were literally the only 2 guys on the server (maybe 1 other guy).Does the amount of players on a server dictate the amount of gear you might find?Also another really weird thing, My 2 mates I'm playing with now have a revolver and a 1911 - when I use these pistols one shot kills a zed, they need 3 or 4 shots?(Lol, our 2nd mate just reached our dead bodies only to have them literally disappear when he walked up to them - timing!)J.

Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 9, 2012 m1911 is a 1 shot zed kill weapon..they must be missing :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
csharp 47 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) It used to be one shot to zombies, untill bis nerfed those. So if server is using older beta, or you are, its possible that thosw weapons oneshot.On the topic; if there is like 6h gap between your visit to nwaf and server reset, its pretty slim changes for anything amazing. You could just remove all the tincans, bandages and ammo from lootpiles, drop them to runway, then wait for 10mins and go check again.Oh yes, almost forgot, why dont you aim to head when killing zeds with pistols? You save ammo and have better hs ratio in debug ;) Edited August 10, 2012 by csharp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigAPE 20 Posted August 10, 2012 m1911 is a 1 shot zed kill weapon..they must be missing :)Not anymore mate ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeromentor 169 Posted August 10, 2012 m1911 is a 1 shot zed kill weapon..they must be missing :)Last Beta Patch made it go down to 1389 damage. 3-4 hits per zombie, and makes it nearly useless against players (takes more ammo than you have in a magazine).Unless you mean headshots, but they'd need to be unaggro'd or walking inside, and not EVERY encounter is in a building.

Jex =TE= (DayZ) 218 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Thanks Guys.I am updated to the latest patch afaik (using 6 launcher - as are my mates so we're all on the same version).If I use a Revolvers or M1911 - I shoot them anywhere and they die in one shot. So my game is bugged somehow then.Thanks for the advice on moving everything out of the hangars but with the amount of fucking zombie respawns I'm not sure I can be arsed with it.
