So you are terrible at the game and lazy at that and because you got killed by someone you want something to be nerfed. Your claims and assumptions are totally legit bro.

Well I have been able to test this in actual combat, i.e. putting items in your chest inventory to reduce damage. I have only been shot at with protective cases in my vest (UK combat vest) so far. I have not had the chance to try out ballistic helmets in my vest nor had a chance to try out the ballistic vest itself. - "Test" 1 (from ~100 meters): Had two protective cases in my vest (worn), one was pristine the other damaged, I got shot in the chest with a Mosin and didn't take any damage nor started bleeding. My vest, both cases and their contents were ruined. My tactical shirt, along with the items in it, did not take any damage. - "Test" 2 (from 3 meters): Had one protective case (pristine) in my ruined vest (yes the same vest which got ruined previously), got shot twice (although I am not certain if the second bullet hit) in the chest with an SKS, did not take any damage nor started bleeding. Protective case, tactical shirt and both their contents were all ruined. If there are any of you who have tested or "tested" various combinations of vests/items and to what effect, please share your findings. Also would like to know what everyone thinks about this i.e. putting protective cases/ballistic helmets in your pants/chest inventory slots. Although it does make sense that they would indeed reduce damage, I don't think anyone would be running around with a ballistic helmet in their cargo pants in real life :D tl;dr you put shit in your pockets and get more armor :p

What exactly are you "blowing"?

That was more like 4-5 meters actually.

I have broken my leg once and ruined my pants once, oh and I somehow managed to glitch out of a building while picking up loot and fell to my death. Good times :)

Let me guess, you were running in the middle of the road.

A lot of assumptions people are making out of nowhere 8l

1. Loses toon 2. Rage quits 3. Calms down 4. Decides he'll act like an idiot 5. Announces it on the DayZ community forums 6. ???? 7. Profit

Jebuz, how many friends do you have? No way you can know that it stops raining EVERYWHERE at the same time... Even if it is over the whole map it wouldn't really matter anyway.

Although it is a problem and there is no way to prevent it technically, you can work around it ingame i.e. don't use grass as cover (unless you are fighting at very close ranges where grass can actually camouflage you) and if it hinders your visibility move to a location where it doesn't ;) Also: Watch from 02:30 onwards specifically. "Grass" is a great way to conceal yourself at close range.

What did you get shot with?

I am assuming you are referring to books doing the same thing. Care to elaborate?

Yea pretty much straight West of the stranded ship about 300 meters I believe.

The fact that they are releasing experimental and/or stable patches every fricking week?

Wow, that has got to be right up there with the stupidest ideas I have ever heard.

Has been suggested before and people came to the conclusion that it would be counter productive to testing the game. Just don't read the patch notes ;)

Well that is a terrible idea even though my m8s do this as well. You are more likely to get shot in the chest than anywhere else on your body. Carrying essential stuff on your shirt and vest is just stupidity.

I bet he didn't figure it out and came on the forums to whine about why his character reset :p

That actually works?

Bug reporting is a good start.

Articulation isn't your strong suit is it?

Wait so you are mad you died on an experimental server? Say what?

DayZeption.

Thank you OP, we were all wondering why you quit playing.

Should be a good example to all the haters with no imagination. Also lol at people swarming like cockroaches at about 11 mins over the 2 dead bodies for loot :D
