hahah, well my weight varies from 65-70kg, but at that moment I was 65kg. Army does wonders wonders to fat...

Who needs mass, when you're ninjaaaahhH!

But even 2x my weight i could still be mobile enough. As I sais, it's the balance that goes to shit. Imagine being drunk and having a normal (a bit heavier) backpack, or bags of beer in both hands, now imagine running.

ps. we aren't all fat americans you know. That's why they shoot each others in Irak. Fuck me, if they actually had to pick a fight with proper soldiers...

There is no man alive, with ammo or not, that could beat Chuck.

He's got the ammo, and he's got the open chest. We're fucked!

Ps. i'm pretty drunk too, just returned my thesis today

Sidearms are useless once you get an assault rifle. The weight is better spent on more ammunition. You can carry a pistol with a fair bit of ammo if you have a low magazine capacity rifle (sniper rifles later on), as it has some purpose then, but really it's just dead weight.

And as explained, vodka is a waste of space. So are artifacts. Again, as you've been told, only carry what you use. And what you WILL use. If you MIGHT use it, stash it and come back for it. Don't bother collecting anything. I have over a quarter of a million roubles and I was only a packrat until I left the first zone.

Yeah but that's it. I'm always at 59kg.
Still haven't found a trainer.

I hated jumping, you would tire after one or two jumps when you were carrying too much which is what real commando do.

i just finished getting the measurements, but i didnt quite understand the little cutscene after the blowout. the screen fades to black after kruglov told me to run, and i heard two people arguing over whether or not to bother carrying someone back, and i assumed it was me, but when i woke up i was inside the rusted out bus (only about five feet from where we stood when the blowout occured) and kruglov was still outside, behind it, unconscious. who was it i heard talking, wtf?

im about to enter x16 and do battle with the zombie hordes, wish me luck, patriots

Good luck. The cutscene makes sense later on don't you worry babycakes.

Well artifacts are ok, as long as you dump the crappy ones. Basically than means very little weight from them.

In the bandit base(Borov's), it's to the north east, just a few meters south of Borov's secret stash.

You're a liar!

I looked it up on google and only found one relevent post because it had trouble coming up with good results and it said something about an elite guy wearing it and I wiped that base out days upon days ago. Real life days. Weeks in game. It's just military patrols in Borov's base nowadays. Bandits patrol the road, military camps the base. Weird.

Why are you at 59 kilos. That's your problem. Be at 30-40 whenever you leave the town.

Stainless · Post by **Stainless** » Sat Apr 28, 2007 11:35 am

hand guns have one use only, and thats to make an easy quick swap when you gun jams after getting rushed. But if you're fast enough on your inv, you can just wipe out a secondary rifle and win.

Active gear should be around 30-40kg. I usually gather all the ammo I can find for the weapon I use , but if I'm still in the middle of nowhere and have around 60kg I'll start dropping the ammo and only keep what I need. Mostly I just walk around with 200-300 bullets for my weapon. If I'm heading back to the "base" I'll take the ammo I can, but usually you really don't get that much ammo to take back (when using proper ammo).

With luck you usually find the amount of ammo you spend. If I notice that my ammo is low and there is no ammo to be found I change weapons and usually drop the main weapon. Guns don't last forever, so no point in carrying useless shit when you don't have ammo.

Was it just me or was the "Reliable" G13 prone to jamming every single fucking time I tried to shoot it?

frissy · Post by **frissy** » Sat Apr 28, 2007 3:18 pm

Can't remember which one it was, but one of those futuristic ones jammed constantly on auto.
