    Weapon Damage

    I was hiding on a rooftop once and when I looked to my left there was a guy crouching there at the top of the ladder. I pulled out my Makarov, aimed, and dumped two mags into his body. Two full mags at point blank, with my ironsights pointing at his center of mass. There's no way those shots missed. The part that really puzzles me is that he then spun around and shot me with his winchester before disconnecting in a panic. I barely felt the shot. I lost like 3000 blood and that was it. That seems pretty low for a point-blank shot from a long gun, maybe he just hit my arm or something. Very mysterious.

    THE Day is TOO DAMN BRIGHT Thread.

    Looks like somebody doesn't know how to use ghetto dayvision.

    Day Z amazing, Arma II poor interface

    You essentially perpetuated a logical fallacy, though: "I'd like to see YOU do better, otherwise you have no right to complain." "I think this game has a poor interface." "I'd love to see your version of a better interface." "I think this food tastes pretty bad." "I'd love to see your version of a better meal." "I think this art is kind of ugly." "I'd love to see your version of a better painting." So no, you didn't contribute. Saying things like that stifles intelligent thought.

    Thanks for contributing nothing to the actual discussion.

    Day Z amazing, Arma II poor interface

    I wouldn't really have a problem with the interfact if certain actions felt more.... snappy, I guess. Like when you're clicking a can of food to eat it, there's often a brief delay before it actually happens. Also, I have problems looting sometimes because when I double click an item to put it in my inventory, nothing happens at first. Sometimes this magically puts the item in my pack 30 seconds later, sometimes it prevents me from looting at all.

    Improving the respawn system

    "Punishing" players for failing is one of the hallmarks of terrible game design. It's basically the game telling you "do it again, stupid," and that's just awful. It's hostile to new players and inconvenient to everyone else.
  7. I had a Day Z dream the other day. I dreamed I was fighting bandits or something, like 6 at a time, and killed them all with my trusty Mak. The dream even had ironsights aiming and the gear window came up when I went to root through their pockets. I've been playing too much.
  8. I'd gladly give 10-15 bucks to aid the development of the mod.
  9. "1) Bandits spawn farther away from Elektro/Cherno, so that they must travel a longer time to return and put their free Makarov against other players again." I could see this becoming a new problem if their spawns were too close to the northwest airfield. Although, in their mad scramble to get weapons there they might just keep their own numbers in check. Would also increase the risks of running into bandits up north, so there wouldn't really be any safe places to go survive anymore. I think it could be interesting though.

    Bandit and Survivor theme song?

    This may also be a fitting banditry song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFKUnfwBPTU

    Oh God I lol'd

    I'm going to hear this in my head the next time I outflank some clueless bandit hunter with no situational awareness.

    Hackers attack

    I was on a server last night where people were talking about a hacker with jets. I was exploring around Stary Sobor and there were all these massive fireballs on the horizon, I guess from crashed aircraft or something.

    The great sport of Cherno Running

    Do you get partials points for shooting the bandit without killing him, and then running away?

    Initial impressions.

    It really would be nice if there were a mix of movement types for the zombies. There are already some that can only crawl, so why not have some that can only shamble as well? As it is with all of them always sprinting, always running at srange angles instead of straight on, it's crazy.

    Blocking off buildings with barbed wire

    It doesn't keep them out? I've never even noticed this
