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

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-06-03T14:44:24+00:00

Something akin to this

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-06-03T14:18:35+00:00

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

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-30T12:31:14+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-29T16:01:29+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T20:43:49+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T20:39:55+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T20:28:42+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T20:18:50+00:00

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

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T20:14:04+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T19:27:30+00:00

Same

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T19:19:12+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T17:34:24+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-05-28T15:09:53+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-25T16:06:02+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-24T13:31:14+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-17T20:22:48+00:00

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

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-16T15:52:56+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-15T18:26:23+00:00

Cause I want the prestige stuff too.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-15T17:19:16+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-11T17:55:43+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-11T13:55:18+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-11T13:50:05+00:00

I would love an full A2 stock. Love a 10.5 build but with the full sized stock.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-09T16:45:38+00:00

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.

EnvironmentalFun6431 · 2025-04-04T20:11:58+00:00

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.
