Be a sport, hunt in the north
voodooactual replied to griffinz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Agreed, Whilst prey seems to be rarer in the North, It's a lot more worthwhile ;) -
Voodoo's Tips, tricks and Helpful stuff v1.5
voodooactual replied to voodooactual's topic in New Player Discussion
I've left some paragraphs unfinished/not done, but I've added a lot more, hence the v1.5 :D -
Voodoo's Tips, tricks and Helpful stuff v1.5
voodooactual replied to voodooactual's topic in New Player Discussion
Thanks for the kind words :D I have quite a bit more to add, but with an exam tomorrow and some revision to do I'll most likely get quite a bit more done tomorrow. Sucks I can't format it so well as the buttons for Bold text etc seem to be a bit broken for me. -
I agree, it can be pretty immersion breaking to be creeping up on the zombie infested NW airfield in the darkness, to hear "HAI GUY AT DA HOSPYTAL IN CHERNAGURSK U FRNEDLY?" following by a "OMFG Y U SHOOT ME!?!?!>?!?!?1/".. It'd be good to have it fade out, or have an option at least to hide text, but it'd be useful to hide GUI for screenshots, and to help make play that bit better

Haha! that's brilliant :D

The New Zombie Count is AWESOME
voodooactual replied to WildGunsTomcat's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Definitely agree, In chernarus, the only risk was a sniper. I could singlehandedly go loot the Apartments and the Hospital, all I had to worry about was an encounter with an enemy player.. now I'm shit scared to go near them.. Meme relevant - When I was going to loot... Before the update - After the Update - -
Not much, but It was pretty cool at the time

Recon and Observing Balota Airfield
voodooactual replied to voodooactual's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Derp, too used to my clan forum's BB codes :P Thanks mate. -
Whilst a kill's a kill, I do agree with Honour amoung Bandits. Whilst we may kill, at least do it professionally and reasonably, rather than just backstabbing.

Your first time being a bandit.
voodooactual replied to Alex LWG's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Was with my clan mates after finding an M24, when I see some idiot sprinting across Balota airfield spraying his makarov blindly at us.. pop goes his skull. Then as we progress to Chernogorsk, another guy starts taking shots at us with a Makarov from behind an out building. He picked on the wrong group, and the wrong sniper. Bang goes his skull, and a zombie goes to eat him. -
From reading stories like these, I get the idea to meet people and then attempt to kill them, almost like a counter lure :P Nasty, but justified as Night said, they took no precautions. Still feel a little bad for the guy with NVG/GPS etc :P

Extensive in-depth idea for rewarding good-guy players
voodooactual replied to cat (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Though, for instance, I have a bandit skin. if I had, say, 5 blood bags and helped 5 of my clan mates with transfusions, and I got put as a cop/good skin, then wouldn't I be shown as "trustworthy", yet I could have the same intentions of a bandit? I mean, good idea, don't get me wrong, I'm grateful you put it out there, but surely somebody would almost "pad" to get the skin then go round screwing people who thought they were friendly -
Never had a DMR.. apart from the very first time I played, tagged along with an awesome guy named "Red" who showed me the ropes, we went into cherno by nightfall, and Red got sniped. I grabbed his gear, then I got sniped too.. but I held that bitch for a good 30 seconds :D

Possible solution to the fear of grouping with anyone.
voodooactual replied to DaPessimist's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Other way round :P Keep your Friends close, and keep your enemies closer ;) -
I was at first thinking "wow, this is a creepypasta BS story".. then I continued to read, saw proof.. and wow, Well done Rocket :D Bigger well done to the Morse Code guys, since we needed that to work out the phrase.. Green mountain seems a plausible source due to it having the massive Anntenae to broadcast from, but.. there has to be some meaning behind this :/ I'll be putting my thinking caps on, if you see me ingame/PM me, and we can brainstorm :P
-
I've once held the sweet beauty known as the M24.. that thing was designed for bandit-ry :D CZ 550 is still a damn nice rifle though.. the CZ got me the kill that got me a M24 :P

[v1.5.6] Zombies / Loot Spawn Issues
voodooactual replied to goldengears's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Confirm - Checked 7 barns, and 5 apartments in and around Chernogorsk. Found 5 tin cans (In one barn) 3 Alice Packs (in 2 Apartments) Zombie count stayed at 130~140, and not a single zombie spawned near the apartments -
Camelback is a great idea, perhaps a rare varient of every backpack with a camelback too? IE, you may find an Alice Pack in a supermarket, but a rarer varient would be an ALICE with a Camelback attached? I think I may be overworking it there though.

Purchase only, studio developed, Kick starter :D

Huh, well I just died during a desync totally randomly, there was only me and 4 clan mates around, we all got desynced and two of us just dropped dead at the same time, when studying the body my clanmates got "name Unknown, cause of death unknown". All that happened was that I just got the red broken chain, and just dropped and faded to black with a "you are dead", nobody else was moving next to me (Remember, desync, this was NOT a sniper as nobody else was shot/heard a shot, and two of us fell at exactly the same time in a dense woodland area) Lost M4A3 CCO Camo with 6 STANAG's, NVG's, Alice Pack, All the navigation gear yadah yadah.. slightly annoyed -.-

Voodoo's opinion on things. Today, I just PVP'd my first person. By that, I mean I began firing, murdered them, and took their stuff. I did it as an experiment to myself, to see how others get their kicks off doing it. I concluded.. I felt bad. It's a game, I know, but the people I was in TS with had to co-erce me for 30 minutes to kill him, because he "Could kill me". Now, I've been murdered in cold blood, looted after finding a brilliant weapon and plenty of ammo by people who had been friendly with me the whole 3 hours we were together, But I don't get how some people literally have no morality. Fair enough, Kill to Survive, if they're a known PVP'er I wouldn't be afraid to fire a few rounds off to save my own skin, but whenever I hear shooting or someone close, I ALWAYS go on direct comms screaming "FRIENDLY, DON'T FIRE, FRIENDLY!", and those people who I meet are in the same boat as me. They don't know whether to trust this random bloke who's just come out of the trees behind them. Long story short - I always want to team up, but I'm always wary of getting popped in the back, if your truly friendly then you wouldn't mind me being so wary :D
