Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 31, 2012 It appears most think absolutely everyone has or covets the as50. A lot of people we see dead do not have them, and this is guys we have come across with nvgs and full kit. We see people travelling up the top of the map without them..whether they have them stashed in their pack. but generally out in the big open spaces with a lot of distance between cover is where i have my dmr always out and ready, mainly for the scoping ability, so i would think others would be of the same mindset. I am just not a fan of the gun, i dont like the view it blocks when i am running ( i do 3dp servers rarely ) and i do not like the zoom style, whereas i love the smooth zoom on the dmr and it does not hinder my view at all, not even mentioning the fact it is a sexy bit of gear. I am not even fussed if i only get a single shot on target and they bail , they have basically died as soon as they quit the fight so whatever So anyone else not too fussed on the as50 ?

jdblair5 170 Posted August 31, 2012 It has its pro's and con's. I am no longer enchanted by it no that I have 30 or so of them. At one point in time, it was considered a "rare" item, now it is just as common as empty whiskey bottles. Personally I think the available weapons should be completely re-worked.

Uncle Gapey 16 Posted August 31, 2012 The AWP of DayZ. If its rarity could be controlled, it wouldn't be an issue. It can't, so it is.Never run in a straight line! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaffarov37 125 Posted August 31, 2012 I don't like it. A few minutes a go I dumped it for an M24 :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hetstaine 10852 Posted August 31, 2012 elitist hipsters nerds who like to be inefficient dont like the as50if you want to kill 20% of the people you shoot at use something other than .50 cal How about if you are not worried about shooting at everyone you see..what do you suggest then ? My only three people kills in over three months have been with the mak and the ak 74 kob :) So i should arm myself with the as50 to be considered not an elitist hipster nerd ? I was thinking the as50 was more of a top 40 mainstream thing myself. Wouldnt Hipsters be carrying something more like the crossbow or lee enfield , i mean they are so retro and all that.
