M14 DMR Damage, Range & Loot Locations Vs LAR & SVD in DayZ 1.23 

We need the Striper-Clip readded for the SkS

hi lol

Hey WOBO could you make an updated video on base raiding and the damage of rounds and explosives and also make an actual video about the relationship between gun/caliber and range for knocking/killing players also in Relation to their armor would be really interesting

Haha yeah poor this guy

At least he credits everyone involved I guess.

Yeah and whoever pays him to get their name said and flashed for half a second… LMAO. Nobody reads or cares about that man

​@@imVuid its not patrons its people who helped gather data for the video

@@Joe_Real Pretty sure its literally just server advertisement for those servers. They pay for a shoutout to get more players.

Thanks. I'll look into including weight in my next gun video. I overlooked it.

lol dmr weights 3kgs? its same bs level like 6 kg shovel vs 1kg pickaxe

​@@runt0rHow did they think you'd be able to break rock with a 1kg pickaxe💀

​@@footingball5566it's an ice pick ⛏️ 😂

This!

better scope for svd ? its got best scope in game.

Agreed

I think it's for balance mainly. The LAR is scary enough already IMO

I can't deny it's more balanced this way. But I think that DayZ shouldn't be a game about balance, especially not if it sacrifices realism. All guns are deadly anyway, it doesn't really matter if one is slightly better than the other, I just want realism in DayZ, there are other games for aggressive balancing at the cost of realism (PUBG and such)@@WOBO

@@steve_i400but based on that same strict realism, any gunshot would be a death sentence with no doctors or hospitals around. Or getting uncon, the amount of TBI or internal damage required to knock you out would be a guaranteed death without hospitals.

@@scottedwards3403don’t be that guy bro

@@sk8ermGs it’s not being that guy, people cry about balance and how the realism needs to be the most important. It’s dumb. You die on a hill of “in real like this would be X, Y, Z” but on the same hand don’t complain about a 7.62x54 round hitting you in the chest and not killing you, just knocking you uncon. Don’t cry about realism being sacrificed with a difference in bullet velocity when there’s other stuff like that in game, especially under the guise of “don’t worry about game balance, muh realism”

Absolutely, but, only for certain playstyles that are focused around stealth. I feel that the DMR is more of a "total warfare combat zone" weapon than the SVD.

Yes, it's likely the best weapon you can find outside of gas zone now. Unless livonia bunker still spawns the AUG AX

Wish they’d get rid of the toxic zones honestly

​@@WOBODo you know where you can find the AUG AX on chernarus or can you even make a video or something for all the new items in the gas zones

@@sk8ermGs Toxic zones are pretty fun if you can manage to set up a base where you can leave your hazmat, and only take it along when you get your car to the toxic zone. Besides, they dynamic toxic zones also push the player to change their regular looting route, discovering new areas.

​@sk8ermGs yea I'm not a fan of toxic zones

You're right. 308's don't spawn in towns/villages like 54's do. 308 is farm/hunting/military only. Never knew that, thanks!

7.62x54r only has two weapons in it also not giving players a huge reason to loot lots of it like with .308 that has many guns, its only got the SVD which is rare and now a gas zone gun or the mosin which everyone seems to preferer the M70 in .308 over it due to the hunting optic.

Lar rare?

​@@softdowner737ofc

M107 and AS50 come to mind.

One shot to knock unconscious. But I’ve only shot a couple people with it.

Well, if it had a suppressor i feel as if it would surpass the SVD coz of its option to have a 20 round mag, so its either you pick the M17 and have an extra 10 rounds and a better optic i would say or the SVD for a suppressor and alil higher damage

Yea just missing the mil dot scope

McMillan

There really should be. That would be super cool!

The SKS stripper clips were in an earlier version of the game, not sure why they were removed.

​@@YesltsMeAgainthe mosin's too, i actually found them in a server that added them fron the old files, they are broken tho, it just loads one round at a tine like normal

@@YesltsMeAgain thanks but I am aware, this why I said add them again. Down side would be not being able to use them with the PU attached, although with how far back the PU mounts to the sks I don't see why they wouldn't work. Definitely would make the sks the best if not one of the best midrange battle rifles. Idk how they'd implement them, if it would be a separate ammo type (clipped 7.62x39mm) or if the stripper clip would be a separate consumable that you combine with ammo.

I think it is a huge miss to not allow the DMR to take the western style metal suppressor. I also wish it would take the hunting scope as well. that would make it live up to its designation DMR = designated marksman rifle.

Guess you never heard of the 6x. Do you even play the game?

@@tomahawkintaco6617 I'm talking about a variable zoom scope like the hunting scope, not an acog. Chill my guy...

​@@mikedebakker5820he is clearly stupid

Take SKS all day, perfect rifle imo

I like the LAR but it’s got too much Recoil for me to use in CQC situations. I haven’t yet mastered the recoil and I have 3k hours but I prefer the AUR-AX. The Burst fire makes sure you drop the target at a range of distances.

100%

the only thing is it’s lack of metal suppressor

@@pulloutpadawan420balance for the 20 round mag i think. If it had both it would render the vsd useless compared to the m14 maybe

Well, this is an M21, for one. But they don't utilize bipods at all in DayZ. Would be a sweet attachment to find for certain guns, though.

@@taylormay9938 no, it's the M14 DMR, not the M21 firstly, secondly, we used to have bipods, the Atlas, it was removed as like damn near everything we used to have, during the renderer swap and it was explained to us that everything we used to have, and everything shown to us on both the official DevBlog and on the official Trello Board, would be given to us "by the time DayZ leaves beta and hits stable 1.0".... and to date, we're missing a hell of a lot, I mean, in just "weapons", we're still missing over 20. There's actually a few bipods in the game but haven't been released to us, the Atlas, the RPG-7's bipod, and the M249's specific bipod. The devs need to remember that they need to return these items as promised, and the items shown to us to be coming "by stable" and never have yet.... like the Bumblebee airplane, Multicar, Little Bird, RPG-7, RAK, Camo Net Tent.... there's a long list.... and if they would have been giving us back our stuff at a few things each patch, including those "only bug fixing" patches, we'd have all our stuff back by now, and they could've given us end game content.... it's ridiculous both Rust and Scum have all the stuff, and we get nothing...they were literally copies of DayZ, and they're doing it better. 🙄

@@johnnygeorgopoulos4072 The M14 is exclusively select fire. This DMR and the M21 are semi auto only. Also, the adjustable cheek pad is standard on the M21, but not the M14. I was just telling my buddy earlier I wish they would add a mount option for rails and walls. It's a pretty logical and simple feature for realism, just as bipods would be. I feel like they are intentionally attempting to simply make sniping more difficult.

@@taylormay9938 I think you're getting the two models of effectively the same rifle confused, the one that's always been in DayZ, since DayZ Mod (Arma 2) and now in SA Experimental, is the M14 DMR, it's semiautomatic only, and has the adjustable cheek. The M21 is, just like the DMR, based off the M14, but the DMR is Marines, the M21 and XM21 are Army, the DMR has the green stock/furniture, the XM21 has wood, the M21 fiberglass....but the DMR is definitely the model that's always been in DayZ, and is now being returned (minus the bipod).

We also needs bipods for the Famas and Pioneer.

i never understood why the fal coudln't take the western style metal suppressor. now I am left wanting the DMR to take it as well , oh and a hunting scope on the DMR would have been great.

@@mikec1096 used to be because of balance. LAR had fullauto, a 20 round mag, and was relatively small compared to the svd with its 10 round mag, semi-auto only, and looking like a mobile green mountain tower when on your back. I would say "caliber compatibility" but the fact the normalized surpessor is based on the TGP-A suppressor meant for the AK-74 and it's 5.45mm projectile I don't see how it can be an excuse. For these matters alone I think the dmr should have suppressor compatibility, maybe at the cost of the 20 round magazine?

Same

CF, V++ Admin Tools and Projectile Debug is all I use

@@WOBO Thanks a bunch!

experimental is for testing not for treasure hunt, thats why the spawns are much higher - so you can test them duh.

@@StopGooN you're wrong, they're still very common

yep found one yesterday no mag though and no ammo

And Mosin.

VSD is the name of the gun in the game, SVD is the name of the rifle irl both are correct to say

because it’s the only full auto rifle that fires high powered cartridge

It's a very op caliber for this game. It would penetrate through good majority of constructions and buildings which would make it a very OP weapon considering the game bullet mechanic's.

but the way he described how to use it sounds good. also make it probably 6-8kg and make every item (gun, ammobox, ammobelt) spawn on a different part of the map exclusive inn that case it could become a s tier base raid gun for big groups but otherwise ppl would stash the gun on alt accounts it cant be stolen. on pc it could work

@@mhe6741 Still too OP IMHO.

@@xXaLuKaRdXx1 I agree it would be OP if you could easily get your hands on all the stuff needed to run the machinegun, but making the belt links rare and the ammo box required to properly seat the ammunition also rare, along with making said machineguns only spawn in gas zones would make it pretty balanced. I would also make them have higher recoil than rifles, lower durability, lower accuracy, longer reload times as well as making the animation for unjamming the weapon longer. It could be used as a weapon for raiding, shooting hordes of infected, shooting players out of cars or generally for suppressing players. Add bipods in too to like in Arma 3, so players have to choose between being more accurate but immobile or inaccurate and mobile. Goes without saying they should weigh a lot too

@@PolishCaptainC4 The thing is, what you suggesting will work only on modded server where the caliber can be compensated. I playd dayz for a while an i also know what M240 is so no thnks bro lets keep it how it is. If you really wanna know how fucked that gun may be, there is a game called Assauld suad sandstorm 2. The mashine guns such M240 are very accurate with penetration and bro its a vile when walls get penetrated. Plus that gam hs realistic hit point system like DayZ so that game rly shows what DayZ uld feel like with HMG's.
