Did anyone else feel dayz felt cooler first time playing?
trichome (DayZ) replied to poodude28 (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
When Rocket was in charge of the updates DayZ was awesome. Since then it's gradually been changed by the community devs to what we have now which is nothing like the original mod and has lost that feeling of being unique and different. First it was thermal now with the removal of 50's it's turning into another generic fps. -
This +1000000000 first thing I did when I got Arma was go into the settings and disable von and turn all voice sound off. Our group use ts have been known to use steam, msn or anything but in-game comms.

Would you kill a fresh beach spawn? Part 2
trichome (DayZ) replied to Ashnik's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'll kill anybody that gets anywhere close to anybody in my group don't care if they've just spawned or been alive for 100days. I have let unarmed players go in the past when I met them on my own but if I'm with the group then they die. -
Well that depends what you call a huge risk. Attacking players may be a huge risk for you but to other players it could be part of their experience. If your in a group tbh dying is not a problem at all. Your group can pick you up get you regeared in no time and you can be back pretty easily.

I'm going to call you out on this point. As I think you couldent be further from what will actually happen. If blood is removed groups would not shift to hunting animals they'll just continue hunting players for there food because its easier and a lot more fun than shooting dumb animals that don't even try to get away from you!

Dayz NAMALSK cheaters
trichome (DayZ) replied to KGB-OTRAID shadowskyline's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
OP without evidence your just making clams that can't be backed up. Also it would help to put the server name in the thread title so the owners can see it if there browsing the forums. -
Screw balance the mod got on fine without it when Rocket was in charge, now every attempt at "balance" by the community devs breaks something or worse. Ah realism yeah when it suits you. The game is not realistic or anything like it. It has realistic elements but thats about it. I think blood needs to stay, as it currently stands blood values from animals are not good enough when your really low on blood and quite frankly I could not be arsed to spend my time hunting bloody animals in the woods just to keep my blood up.

Headshots should be instant death
trichome (DayZ) replied to splehpnala's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Glad I don't live in the same country as you if everybody is going around shooting each other in the body! :o -
I don't get all the complain about this game on the forum ?
trichome (DayZ) replied to iPewPewU's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Well I'd be more than happy to see the dmr removed for svd's, but while your sensibly calling for replacements most comments are for removing weapons completely which I will NEVER agree to.I'd go as far as even suggesting replacing the M107 or AS50 with the KSVK or other 50 cal equivlents from the soviet block countries. Replacing weapons with others is fine but removing them entirely is dumb and just pandering to n00bs. -
DayZ Standalone, Freelook, Third Person
trichome (DayZ) replied to DontTrustPubs's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Right so the whole banter stinks of ignorance and your view doesnt. Give me a break! And stop talking bs I never said fpv servers are empty.Seriously dude take a chill pill and get over yourself! -
House Building issues on Origins
trichome (DayZ) replied to spuddels's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
You might want to try the right forums. Origins has nothing to do with DayZ or these forums. -
DayZ Standalone, Freelook, Third Person
trichome (DayZ) replied to DontTrustPubs's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Then seriously you need to learn how to configure Arma 2's settings. Head bob can be completely turned off. You can increase your FOV to whatever you want.I wouldent play dayz in third person cause it's totally unrealistic, the biggest immersion breaker in the game and its a cheat/exploit. -
I don't get all the complain about this game on the forum ?
trichome (DayZ) replied to iPewPewU's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
OP this right here is why there dumbing down the game and removing weapons. Because of whiners like our friend here who obviously has issues with said weapons.This has been done by the community dev's listening to whiners like our friend above :rolleyes: , Rocket did NOT decide on removing any weapons infact I remember a quote from him saying 'he wouldent remove any weapons from the game' can't find the thread. OP we can only hope Rocket sticks to his guns :P and makes the game he said he would and does not dumb it down to please a few whiners. -
DayZ Standalone, Freelook, Third Person
trichome (DayZ) replied to DontTrustPubs's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Remove free look...eh how about just remove 3rd person view althogether and eliminate the exploit/cheat once and for all. -
Why would I start counting bullets??? Don't be so naive, I'll just kill you and take yours, take what I need and give the rest to my teammates. And quite frankly zeds need to be a lot smarter if there going to present any sort of decent challenge other than their numbers.

The most ridiculous range you've been shot
trichome (DayZ) replied to thelonewarrior's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
That was no lucky shot you got haxor'd. The effective range of the enfield in Dayz is 400m. It's also only got 6722 damage so it will always be 2 shots to the body to kill within that 400m range if your at full blood. -
OP just because your bored with the game does not mean it needs "always changing Game Element!", it already has changing game elements and is different every time I play it. "If you want extrem PVP go and play BF3,COD,MOH and the other generic casual cash cow crap Games!" Looking at your sig to me it looks like they are your type of game cause DayZ is not for you when your bored with it already!

Wind and ballistics system
trichome (DayZ) replied to r4z0r49's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Why would it be too much??? If your sniping ir your affected by the wind so why should DayZ not have it?? As I sniper I look forward to this, anything that adds to the realism is good as far as I'm concerned excluding the rampant infected/zombies ofcourse.And lets face it if you can't hit a barn door now you still won't be able to hit one with this implemented. Seasoned snipers won't be phased by this in the slighest it's the newbies that will struggle. Nobody said it would be easy B) -
Will Snipers Be Removed Or At Least Tweaked In S.A?
trichome (DayZ) replied to Pokerguy12's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
There is no problem with them.Its a few whiners that don't want snipers in any games they play that have been the vocal minority around here for a while which is why we see these threads resurface every now and then. I'm all for adding in sway, drift, bullet drop, wind resistance as it will all add to the experience of sniping. Removing them is as stupid as removing zombies, it's just not going to happen. -
Big Performance Issues on a Good PC
trichome (DayZ) replied to auroraah's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
First why would you install games to a slow 1tb drive??? Arma2 is CPU and IO intensive you need a solid CPU personally I'd go with intel as money is not an option for me, and a fast hd. You'd be far better of with arma running on a velociraptor at the very least obviously having it on an SSD is optimum. if you've the space on the SSD I'd move Arma to it which you can do through steam. -
People shooting freshspawns
trichome (DayZ) replied to Sem4ever's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
People shooting fresh spawns are playing DayZ their way and more power to them. That's the thing about DayZ there is no rules, no balance, no fairness. It's brutal, it will tear you to pieces and when your down will kick you in the teeth for good measure. When you spawn you should be scared and not just of zombies but people as they are your biggest threat. -
Guy survives 800m headshot with CZ
trichome (DayZ) replied to NightmareZee's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Really?? cause I cant even see a guy in that video let alone him getting shot in the head. Lets see a screen shot of this headshot for those of you that say you can see him. -
Consolidated Weapons/Equipment suggestions
trichome (DayZ) replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
You can already use the PKM on DayZ Namalsk, as well as a lot of the weapons being asked for here. Its awesome at taking down hoards of zombies and bloodsuckers :thumbsup: -
I think the Standalone will be fantastic, no matter what the other threads say.
trichome (DayZ) replied to DayzForumer's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
As long as they stick to Rocket's original idea of a hardcore survival appocalypse thingy then it should be great. Only thing that can f*$k it up is dumbing it down for the masses and making it easier. keep it brutal and hard and were onto a winner :thumbsup: dare I say it no starting gear except your y-fronts! -
How can we host DayZ Origins?
trichome (DayZ) replied to IcyZ's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Unless you like giving your money away to randoms on the internet best to stay well away from dayz origins. Stick with the original mod and you can't go wrong. There's even tons of new maps created that don't require you to hand over any of your hard earned $$$$$$
