Middle of america? How would you close off the edges of the map?

the amount of times this type of shit has been suggested............................................

Since when are .50 cals being removed

Add snow mountains, then you can have your rivers.

Just to be clear I picked 3. This isn't Battlefield 3, it's arma, bullets go where there meant to, even if you're not aiming down the sights. Have you ever wondered what happens with guns in real life if you don't down aim down their sights? They still go where there barrels are pointed. There's no such thing as hip fire spread, it only exists in shitty games that need 'balance'. If you add a laser beam, (not laser sight, this isn't optics we're talking about.) then it would show you directly where the bullet will go (if the target is within it's effective range.) As for the Lee Enfield, you cannot simply tape a fucking scope on it and expect your rounds to go on target. How are you meant to zero the weapon? Not to mention the fact you have to self zero it by manually adjusting it with tape, then firing it until you get the sweet spot zeroed in. Which won't be a waste of ammo, or attract any attention? Won't hurt to use the search function in the future.

Having a .50 cal side arm won't help you survive, you won't be able to find ammunition for it, or be able to hold the damn thing. As well as the fact every zombie will hear you shooting it.

pfft, someone pointing a fire at you, would you really try to kick them? Even so, you'd only use this if you were unarmed, most likely a new spawn, making new spawns able to overpower someone with a weapon at point blank range? That being said, new spawns have nothing to loose, and will always try to kick your weapon from you if they get the chance. (I don't know why you would try to kick someone pointing a gun at you) Maybe something like push the firearm away from you or something, either way a gun has a hair trigger, the person will die as soon as he moves a muscle, no ones stupid enough to let someone overpower you if you have a gun pointed at them. Fine how it is thanks.

I hope so!

After playing all of the new maps released on DayZ Namalsk was overall the best. Though I have to say if it was alot larger it would be perfect, then I thought why the hell isn't the Standalone having snowy mountains? Looking at the current map, Chernarus, it doesn't look like the coldest climate yet Rocket is adding new clothing like jackets and warm clothing. If you had mountains with snow on them not only could you have a vary of loot that is compatible with the cold but you can have clothing that you can climb up the mountain with, as well as having snow camo items too. Or have white paint cans so you can paint your firearm white. As well as having a military base up there like Seraja army base in Namalsk, if you wanted to go there you had to wear warm clothing or bring a load of heat packs, it would be better for the game because you'd have to work towards finding good loot, currently you can just run to some barracks and find a gun without having to prepare. If it was added to the north part of the map this is what it should look like. http://www.wallpapersdesign.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Switzerland-Mountain.jpg There is no reason to not put in snowy mountains, there are mountain ranges in Africa, I'm sure Chernarus (based near Russia) could easily have mountains. Maybe try to base it in the Urals? Please add this! The current map is boring, when you guys finish Chernarus plus it's just going to be the plain old Chernarus with different areas and an extended map, if you added snowy mountains it would make the game a hell of a lot more nostalgic as well as making it more interesting.

AND FUCKING MOUNTAINS.

you cant have large cities like this, otherwise you cant have an open farm land which makes dayz so fun. you have to balance it out with small towns and cities every now and then. Thats why russia is a good choice because you can have an even balance of the two.

I like the idea that you need a kit to remove a bullet out of your body. Maybe you shouldn't be allowed to remove a bullet from your body, unless you have some basic tools (which has the potential to cause an infection) or you could have that kit. This idea has alot of potential. But the idea of bleeding every 10 minutes isn't the most realistic approach. If you were shot in the leg, and removed the bullet if it was still in your leg, a simple medical bandage would stop the bleeding.

If camping tents are removed on death, then you could never raid a camp because as soon as you killed the owner, all the gear is magically gone..? Or, players should be limited to only 1 camping tent. Both ideas a stupid, very stupid. Not only is this extremely 'unrealistic' but would ruin gameplay for everyone. Exactly what are you trying to achieve by heavily ruining gameplay for anyone who wants to build a camp?

While everyone is going on about how much damage rounds should do in game due to their real life ballistics, I'd like to say: If the .50 cal is going to in the SA, most people would argue that is too 'OP' because they aren't used to that sort of power in COD. Anyway, when a .50 cal round enters say a torso, shock from the round entering the wound causes just as much damage, if not more than the actual round's impact. This is because all that shock will rupture everything, even bones within a certain vicinity (Don't know the dimensions exactly). This being said if you're hit in the upper leg (quads) then it would rip your whole leg off, or your muscle, bone and nerves will be completely destroyed. Either way you will die from blood loss.

do you understand how hard map making is? It's taken them a long time to make chernarus plus, I don't think they're going to ditch all that they've done and redo all the loot spawns and everything right now.
