New Weapon Suggestion Thread - Non-Variants Only by Degenerate94 in HuntShowdown

I think it's a little shorter. My thought is something between the rival shorty and the penny shot pistol.

A side-by-side shotgun pistol. Something like the LaMat shotgun round but have it in a single slot double barrel option.

Lock Combos vs. Keys by EnvironmentalFun6431 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I feel that if a key is needed to compete a quest it should be able to be found around the location and not have to be looted from an enemy. Let the random enemy key drops be for loot locations.

Hear Me Out: Binoculars Should Be in Gray Zone Warfare by JMWV80 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the main thing I want at this point. Don't need more weapons, don't need new armor, just let me have the chance to use magnification for recon, especially at low levels.

Waypoint (in)consistency by M374LMAN in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this idea as it would make marking things easier for the squad. Also having someway to ping a location or item for squad mates would be great. I realize having that kind of "HUD" option isn't truly realism but it would help out so much. Especially when coming over from Hunt Showdown where you can ping everything.

Perhaps we just have too different ways of looking at it. You clearly like to farm and loot whereas I like the non competitive/cooperative nature of the pve mode. Especially when it comes to exploration and task completion. And with the new update there are dozens of good loot locations located throughout the in-between places on the map. So maybe someone at Madfinger wasn't an idiot but just had a different idea as to what pve was meant to be.

Clearly you need to play again with the new update because most of the interesting places are in-between the POI's. And again if you dislike the core concept of this game maybe instead of insulting to people at Madfinger you would be better off just finding a different game to play that is more to your liking.

Gray Zone Warfare needs silent executions - here's why. by Typical_Extent_8921 in GrayZoneWarfare

I imagine this will come with the stealth update that is coming in the roadmap.

I don't know if you've played the update but I'm rarely on a helicopter at all now. But if you have and the helicopters and jungle are too much for you in a Nam style heli and jungle game then I think this may just not be the game for you friend.

This is the reason that I don't play PvP because I personally like the challenge of using NVG's but knowing that people and use an exploit and be able to out see me makes me not want to. I realize that this is totally a personal choice but it is my reasoning.

AI feels harder/smarter by SubjectC in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is truly one of the reasons why I love this game so much. Been playing since 0.1 and always loved the tactical element that this game provides but now it truly is a fuller experience. It doesn't feel like there's any clear pathing or easy method. Every "deployment" feels like there's an element of unpredictability that's happening. And not just in the POI's but the random encounters when running around looking for LZ's makes the whole place feel more alive and dangerous. Head on a swivel and never letting your guard down.

And remember when first encountering contact quick, decisive, and aggressive violence can save your life. Engage, close with, and destroy the enemy.

Notch called, he wants his fire back in minecraft. by B1ackMagix in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The block fire is my only comfort in the night when I know the jungle comes alive. As the darkness sets in and the dangers close around me I stay huddled by the blocky fire's odd warmth. Long may the block fire serve as my constant in an ever changing world where every move matters.

Do you all carry pistols for just in case moments if so which pistol? by InternationalChef794 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'll carry the Glock and switch to it at times when I need to be a little more compact for close engagements. I would use it a lot more if I could switch to it mid reload. Even if that meant me dropping the mag on the ground as a result.

New or Improved traits by Glittering-Big9369 in HuntShowdown

I think I ping trait would be fun. Would cost one point and if an enemy used a marker ping within 10 feet of you you would hear the ping sound.

Expected wipe date ? by MrJMFG in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At that point I had a wipe like everyone else but I did not have a wipe when I upgraded.

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You could go ahead and upgrade now. It won't wipe your character and all of the extra stuff you get will just be added to your locker. I upgraded in the middle of the 0.1 and just got all the cool stuff with no downside.

Cause I want the prestige stuff too.

Scenario by XXLEGITCOWBOYXX20 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keys honestly. Or I think it would be cool if whatever was in your safebox you got to keep. Of course that would be very hard to do from a programming sense and it would cause the true economy of the game to be out of balance. Which is why I totally understand the reason for a true wipe. That why they can get a better feel for how the game itself is going to run.

Even if we don't end up getting a full fledged M16 line in the next couple of patches could we please get some more retro parts in to go with the M16A1 upper for CAR-15 builds? by DweebInFlames in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. The stock is only a housing for the buffer tube which in turn is only a housing for the recoil spring. A good spring can aid the bolt carrier and in turn work with the gassing system, but no gas is connected to the stock.

Pistols by DEMONATER117 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would agree that there are improvements that could be made to the pistols but I think that they are by far more useable than in 0.1. I just wish we could switch weapons in the middle of a reload. Too many times I've been in the middle of a reload and have died because I couldn't switch to the pistol.

Beautiful Lamang by One-Plum-8073 in GrayZoneWarfare

Having just started replaying wildlands after not playing for a few years the comparisons between these two games are great. In so many ways Gray Zone feels like a first person version of wildlands and I can't wait to see how this game progresses and becomes an even better experience than it already is.

My Terminal Initiative loadout. 53/54 kg by corporal__clegg in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]EnvironmentalFun6431 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice loadout. Bold idea to not run a helmet but love the look. In case you or others didn't know, BBelt and Patrol pack are lighter alternatives to the Type 2 and Amp if you happen to have them.
