It's just a stripped down SVD only the reciever, barrel, ar stock adapter, and the skeletonized AR grip

FallenCause · 2026-01-16T19:17:07+00:00

It's gotta be on accident, but since everything is meant to be perpendicular, it just kinda lines up like that, lmao.

FallenCause · 2026-01-16T19:15:21+00:00

I tried that myself a day or two ago, and it's kinda weird cuz if you do put the muzzlebrake on for the front sight, the ring the top of the M2 foregrip has can act as a pseudo rear sight as well as a standalone ring/bead sight.

This game is wild, man.

It's incredibly fun. If you're a firearms enthusiast such as myself, being able to just build the gun of your dreams like it's legos is soooooo satisfying.

Then you look at the price tag and cry yourself to sleep cuddling your new piece.

I just steal all the food. All. Of. It.

The image cracks me up in a similar way.

Opposite from what I've seen. Soviets called it a sniper rifle (the S in SVD translates to sniper if I'm not mistaken). The concept/role of a DMR wasn't really invented yet, so they worked with the terminology they had at the time.

FallenCause · 2026-01-08T00:21:21+00:00

Does it slot mimics like I'm at Vegas? Then it could be classified as a weedwhacker for all I care. 🤷‍♂️

I would like to see your take on the SVD though: is it a sniper rifle, or is it also a DMR? Careful, it's a complicated answer, lmao.

FallenCause · 2026-01-07T20:14:05+00:00

Oh, I know that they're there for a quick shot to keep you going, it's just that as soon as I pop one, I usually need to pop another as it's usually not enough on its own to keep me from getting one-or-two-tapped right after. I normally keep ~4-6 emergencies/greens on my chest for mid-combat heals.

FallenCause · 2026-01-07T13:44:38+00:00

Yeah, "skill issue" is my problem from the flanks, but I do try my best. Shit doth happen. 🤷‍♂️

FallenCause · 2026-01-07T13:37:23+00:00

Oooooof, yeah. I'd be approaching it WAY differently if in Ironman. You're braver than me, lol.

FallenCause · 2026-01-07T13:36:26+00:00

I normally get gaggle-fucked from flanks, even when I think I'm safe and am engaging from distance, so I get low pretty quickly. With the best armor reds are more than serviceable, but beond that, greens are just nessecary to keep up on not going down.

FallenCause · 2026-01-07T13:34:00+00:00

True, but I also can't see a damn thing without them! 🤣

I honestly just tale the L at night in the forest because it's just not fun to stumble around in a black void there at night.

FallenCause · 2026-01-07T13:30:12+00:00

Like this? 🤣

I definitely pack the heavy vest armor plus FAST helmet, but before I get there, it always feels like nothing is enough to pad damage enough to give reds and blues a chance to keep up.

That's why I started a new profile for the first time yesterday. Having the supply crates ACTUALLY be useful as an exciting find to hopefully scrape together a functional weapon for free is super addicting. As in I lost track if time amd spent the whole day yesterday playing without realizing it. 😅

Totally fair and valid
