As above, maybe you just got unlucky and someone was nearby when you parked up, i think the UAZ can be heard from something 400m away.

It depends on the server, many servers run a script that clears dead bodies and placed items in order to improve overall server performance, could be every 20 minutes or every hour or whatever they set it to.

If you're just going to assume that i'm lying simply because your experiences were different to mine then theres little more i can say.

When i first started playing this mod thats exactly how i played, I would stay in the woods just doing every thing i could to survive as long as possible, after all, back then it was a zombie survival game not a 225km2 deathmatch. Found all the weapons and gear i could ever need in tents and vehicles. It wasnt until i became a medic and put my character at risk helping others that i got the hero skin and thats the way it should be. I agree the current system is flawed, but a system where you get rewarded for sticking to the wilderness or killing just goes against the idea of being a hero, (bandits and the infected are still human beings so killing them would still have a negative effect on someone)

Agreed, not only does it look dumb but its totally unnecessary.

Not true, theres plenty of people that stick to the wilderness rarely interacting with any other players, with your system they become heroes just because of the time spent away from civilization.

Then lone wolves who just play alone in the woods would become heroes even if they do shoot on sight on the rare occasions they come accross someone.

The humanity gain was a bug to begin with, maintaining the hero skin should be very difficult, but its certainly not impossible.

For a start this thread is 6 months old, but im curious, what makes you think theres already hacks out for a game thats months away from release?

If i could wipe my memory of DayZ and start over again? Done And this time no using the daydb map.

The makarov is no different to any 9mm pistol in dayz, It does 889 points of damage max and only if its a body shot, there could even be other random chance variables that prevent full damage with every shot. So 14 hits at 889 =12446 in theory he should be dead, but maybe one of those shots hit an arm or shoulder, hard to say where the hitboxes start and end. maybe a bit of dsync meant a shot or two didnt register, maybe you just plain missed. anyway, my advice..aim for the head.

Aww cmon man! you cant go saying stuff like and not show us pics!!! :( ...please?

You ever been headshotted by a single punch from a zombie? i mean instant death from full blood. Now that one take you by surprise.

do you mean text or voice? If voice try going to audio options and make sure radio and microphone are up to full, If text then i have no idea.

Cant wait for to be implemented, great work guys.

The motherboard and power supply give it away as being a desktop

If it was me i'd get at least 8gb of RAM and then overclock the cpu, with an aftermarket cooler you should be able to get it up to 4Ghz, If its still not good enough get the quad core I5. Your current Gpu should be more than up for the job.

There's still plenty of servers that stick to the original spirit of DayZ, heres a random one off the top of my head :D http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/129296-picnic-table-veteranchernarus-wheres-all-ma-guns-gone/

Bump, OP updated.

Couldn't agree more.

Heres another for you to try http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/129296-picnic-table-veteranchernarus-wheres-all-ma-guns-gone/ The servers hosted in Canada but we have people from all over europe playing, Im from the UK myself and usually get around 100 ping.

Free bandage and painkillers for all fresh spawns! you lucky gits.

With those specs you should be fine. after all the internals of a mac are no different to a normal PC (its just made of gold and diamonds which is why it costs more :rolleyes: ) The only thing stopping people gaming on a mac is the operating system, and you're going to bypass that by using bootcamp to install windows. Well, i assume you're going to use bootcamp, could try Wine but im not sure if that supports arma, plus you would definately lose performance with it.

If you do get stuck in the back of the heli just get out as quick as possible, theres a few seconds delay before you can take damage from it.
