    Like archery, ammo condition affecting gameplay is a feature that used to be in DayZ, but was removed in the 1.0 full release.
    Back in v0.63, I know for a fact ammo condition did increase chances of weapon malfunction, even on a pristine weapon, with pristine mags.
    If I recall, badly damaged ammo had a chance of catastrophic failure where it would have a pressure spike and damage the firearm either 1 or 2 stages, meaning if you used badly damaged ammo in a damaged firearm, there was a chance a faulty round would actually ruin the firearm.
    We treated ammo of any quality lower than worn as pure junk, not worth risking putting in our guns.
    As for the fishing, I'm pretty sure you've always needed bait. It would make no sense for a fish to just bite a hook.
    Something that would be cool is if the fishing lure were changed to look like a minnow, frog, or maybe a spinner, as such lures IRL don't need bait applied.
    There is also an old rumor that I think is true, as it's happened to me on empty servers WAY back, like before v0.60, that if you vault over an object (back when you couldn't climb fences, only vault over low ones) with a loaded gun in your hands, there was a very, very, very small chance you slip, and shoot yourself with your own gun. This happened enough that some of us veteran DayZ players still stow our guns before vaulting or climbing. I don't think that mechanic has been in the game for quite some time, though.

    12ga rubber slug point blank to the head IRL would very likely be lethal. Even a paintball point blank to the temple can be lethal, given the gun is tuned to a higher pressure. Big reason why the range we played on growing up had a "no headshots within 15 feet" rule. Especially true if you run frozen paintballs to make cheaters call their hits.

    Grenades in clothing will DEFINITELY have a chance of exploding if you are shot - especially if the grenade is already badly damaged. Grenades in DayZ trigger the explosion when ruined (exactly the same as a propane tank), and any item in your base level clothing inventory can be damaged randomly when shot. If it so happens to be the grenade that takes the damage, and it takes enough to be ruined... well, if any buddies are standing next to you they're gonna have just as bad of a day as you are.
    If you want to keep yourself safe from spontaneous explodification, put your grenades in "secondary" inventories such as pouches or those yellow protection cases.

      @@pulloutpadawan420 I did watch the video - he drags one grenade into the target's clothing and you cannot tell what its initial condition was. However, after he's done shooting, he checks the condition and it's badly damaged. I'd say another couple of shots and he might've had a different outcome. Having the grenade in a "grenade slot" doesn't make it any more or less likely to explode, either - as I recall, it's still got the same chance of taking damage from a shot to that hitbox.
      If you've got good condition grenades, you'll most likely die from being shot far before the nade goes off. Sprinkle a couple badly damaged grenades into your inventory after a military loot run, though? If someone sprays you with an AK, you might take a buddy with you.

    Do some tests on mushrooms spawning in the forest. I think you can spawn mushrooms in front of you as you're passing through, so that would make them a bad indicator of nearby players.

    • @user-gb3jk5sn9u
      @user-gb3jk5sn9u 6 місяців тому +1

      This is true. Things spawning in front of you are not indications of nearby players. Things spawn within a ~100m radius of you as you travel. Rocks, fruit, mushrooms etc…If you sit in that area (camp), it’ll start to spawn more and more. It used to be like every 5 minutes another spawns.
      So if you’re traveling through woods, near fruit trees and you see several items spawned near each other; Somebody is very recently near and possibly camping. If you’re traveling with more than 1 person it can increase the spawn around you.
      If you’re ever starving just camp in the woods, or near fruit trees without panic. Stay right within that 100m circle. Walk around every 5 minutes or so…food will just keep spawning. Done it many times.

    Landmines, 40mm (launcher) grenades, including PO-X, and smoke variants WILL explode in your inventory when ruined or on your vest. Gas canisters will in your inventory as well, as stated.
    They WILL NOT if they are in plate carrier pouches OR 2 layers deep on your body. Meaning a container in a container. A pot, a first aid bag, dry bag etc…I have argued with people about the grenade thing for ages. Assuming nothing has changed without them mentioning it over several patches, you may want to test launcher grenades, landmines, canisters on you and 2 layers deep.
    A test I’ve never seen though is if quality of ammo degrades weapons and magazines faster. For example if 3 perfect pristine weapons and magazines fire all pristine, damaged and badly damaged ammo will the equipment go to worn, damaged etc…at the same amount of rounds?

    Good video mate, keep them coming. Grenade shooting needs more testing. It's confirmed that they explode when ruined and maybe you were shooting at pristine ones? So maybe they can take more shots just like that pistol you were shooting at? Then there's the matter of the vest, what if it protects the items inside it or attached to it as long as it's not ruined? You shoot at the vest, it gets ruined and then the grenades start taking damage. And if they were badly damaged from the start, it may be that all it takes now is one shot from a high caliber weapon. Needs more testing to be sure.

      40mm grenades of every type will blow up. Landmines as well. They will not if you place them inside your plate carrier pouches, or in a container in your clothing. A pot, a first aid bag, a dry sack and so on. Place that in your backpack or clothing, they will no longer explode. I’m not sure why with the pouches, theoretically it’s 2 layers I guess because the carrier is 1? WOBO has tested this.

    Grenades used to explode when shot. Like you said a lot has changed and been updated over the years. The fishing with no bait only works on Namalsk. Back packs used to work as a bullet shield. Even when destroyed. They only changed that fairly recently. You can also drink dirty water if you take a vitamin first. I think it also reduces the chance of getting blood poisoning from healing with unsterile rags too.

    All vests used to soak the same amount of damage on their first hit- it was subsequent hits that defined their armor quality as some would be ruined immediately while others would take multiple rounds. But yes, as I remember, vests used to all protect the player equally on the first shot.

      They degrade armor health faster and to give a really short example of why they are good
      Let’s say a normal 9x39 round does 25% of damage per shot then it would take 4 shots to ruin the plate carrier and the first 3 shots would do reduced damage while the 4th shot since it “ruins” the vest will do full damage pass through same as if someone wasn’t wearing the vest
      While 9x39 armor peircing will do let’s say 40% damage per shot that means you hit the vest 2 times and the third bullet will do full damage
      Also important 25% and 40% are not the real armor damage values but it works to explain the argument and is still a true thing just wrong numbers bc I needed a place holder
      To explain it slightly differently the bullet that “ruins” the armor will do full damage since AP does more damage to armor they are better against vests and helmets
