He is aware of that knoxx.. he asked why it is like that.

If you want to get noticed, going to the suggestion area is probaly a much better idea :P Trying to have a suggestion get noticed by Rocket in here, hidden in the depths of page X and not in any form of suggestion format, seems futile. I agree it is a problem, but ALL the idéas i can think off, someone else already said. I can then eighter attempt not to get killed in game to something like that, by staying away from NWAF if i am not willing to take the risk, atleast as long as no countermeasure is put IN the game. I can also whine allot feeling hurt and angry, and really get no where with it, besides taking up forum space :P

Wow, a whole thread with serious discussion because someone went to NWAF and got killed, and now whine about it? You said yourself there was 8 people, that means 8 people thinking the exact same as you "HEY! I am almost alone, OFF TO MILITARY LOOT!" I do the same, though I know better then to think that 8 people means I am safe. As someone in here mentioned, just MAYBE, this guy thought the same, and saw you from a distance and shot the shit out of you.. So if you do not want to die at NWAF, then go into the mission editor in SP and don't but any hostiles! Yes it is a problem that someone can spawn right behind you due to server hopping. But most people do not serverhop around in the wilderness looking for easy kills, so if you don't want to be an easy serverhopped kill... GTFO PVP heavy areas

Lol tom what kind of answer is that. "Yes u can play dayz, if you buy the game and update it" His question were if what he had, he could run dayz off of that. The answer is that he already has Arma2, but is missing OA, so no he cannot play the game.

Sorry for being completely unhelpful... But why the hell do you post this in news and information? Besides your question has been answered millions of times before, google and search functions are your friends.

Simple fix: Everytime you get so low health you can get into shock, just kill yourself! Hoping they add something so you can someday blow your own brains out, so I can suggest that to all the whiners instead

Why do you people break your legs that often? I agree there could be more ways to fix a broken leg, like some kind of board + cloth/robe combo to make some kind of support for it, but that is probaly not getting added anytime soon. Advice, stop breaking your legs all the time, if I don't break my legs that often I need to worry about it all the time, so shouldn't you...

Yes please add this, so I can camp and kill all those people who thinks this is a good idéa, and eventually lock em out of the game! :D If this gets added, I see even more reason to shot someone. One thing is troll killing someone who just repspawn, but imagine trollkilling someone who has to wait 8 fucking hours?! FUCK YES, DIE BITCHES, NEVER COME BACK!!!! If someone didn't catch my drift, that was very sarcastic, but also what i was going to do if 8 hours was added, I would be so paranoid I would shot the shit out of everyone I saw. No way in hell would I EVER take the chance that they could be friendly if I had to wait 8 hours if they turned out not to be.

Also at the moment, flashlights seems to be buggy for some people, so if someone dies (say me) I start at the coast, in pitch blackness, and a broken flashlight... Good luck with that.

I have the same issue, cannot for the life of me turn on my flashlight, persistent on all servers i've tried, and restarting the game also doesn't help. I used flashlights before without a problem though

I've considered changing to the female skin, for the sole purpose of getting that extra 1 second headstart on someone when you meet them headon, and your gonig to wack them anyway.

To add to Castuns writeup Unless your house is on fire, there is also no good reason why you cannot wait the 20 seconds. If your excuse is mommy or dadda says off the pc NAO! Well boohoo, and if it is the wifey saying the same thing, well man up and say "be there in 2 min." There really isn't a legitimate reason to quit while in danger. Sure you might have something actually important to do, but eighter it can wait, or your char is not important enough to save, just quiting, and therefore avoiding the harm is still unfair.

Ohh yeah, it's the other way around xD 1 mile = 1,6 km so its more like 9,5 miles east to west and north to south so it's more like 90-92 square miles. That is what i get for being to lazy to look it up and doing this in the head -.-'

A knife against a zombie would be worthless. You would stab it, it would maybe look at you funny like "Really? R U STUPID?! I R ZOMBO DUDE, me feel no pain!" and then eat you.

Nice guide! You do need to know a basic or have a rough drawing of the lands in your head for this though :P Or use a map, eighter ingame or out of game, but that is still a tool ;) For finding my way, I use treelines and hills. I am mostly in the wilderness, and it requires that you know how to find out which way is north, and a map, preferably quite high res, since seeing treelines, and shapes of hills is key. And most out of game maps are just a quick screencap, so for zooming in it gets low res. Ingame map is awesome though, but a little too rare compared to the amount of maps that exist in the real world :P Donno anyone without some sort of map about their country.

1 km = just about 1.6 miles (no i am to lazy to look up the exact value, since I cannot calculate with 1.61394183 anyways) and the square root of 255 is around 16, so that means (if the map is infact square) that the full map is 10 miles, from north to south, and east to west. So the map is 100 square miles. (Rough aproximate, use a calculator if you want to know if it is infact 99 square miles instead of 100, or 99,45823, and yes <--- was random numbers)

So, I was looting the military camp in Stary Sobor, a bug made me loose my backpack inventory items when I changed it for another, so I had a single can of sardines left. I log out and come back some time later, it is now dark. My thirst and hunger is maxed, I need to drink and eat. No more food, I lose connection to the server, I rejoin a new one. Again the same, need more food and water, but i have no more food! I scramble for a completly empty Stary Sobor, not a single Z in the whole region (loot broken?). I try to scavenge the military camp again, no luck. Bolting it to the shop, blood still holding. I search for a good 5 minutes, then my blood starts going down. I sit and think for a moment what to do, leave the server? Maybe the loot system is broken, not a single Z anywhere. Then all of a sudden! A stranger walks in the shop, not seeing me, I make a quick decision, I point my AKM right at his head, and empty 10 bullets right into him. He drops dead right then and there (overkill much, it was nearly point blank) I quickly search the body, afraid he might not have been alone, or I had attracted some unwanted attention. A SODA?! A FREAKING SODA IS ALL YOU HAVE?! Fuck, I have to move again, or I will starve. Sprinting back to the military camp and BAAAM A bullet strikes my leg and breaks it. I don't fall over, I keep running for the trees. I manage to get to safety, I bandage, painkiller and morphine up. Still starving, I am slowly loosing my last 2K blood. Paranoid I lie still, hoping someone to walk up and get the remaining 20 bullets in my AKM, but no luck. I have to walk back down to the military camp if I am to survive. Still no luck, nothing has spawned. The chat announces the guy who shot me, Obsidian. He was amazed I survived the shot, from his trusty M24. But I told him I was still starving. "I am going to the church to repent, before I die" I say to Obsidian, and that he can have my items, his bullet was not spend in vain. "I will not shot you Slim, A bandit with humor, I am glad the first bullet did not kill you." I am passing out while I try to get to the church... multiple times. I finaly get there, Light a flare right at the spot I am standing. Trying to get in the church FREAKING SUNDAYS! It was closed, I pass out. Wake up with 50 blood left, I fire my last 20 bullets from my AKM, and drops dead right on my flare. It was a good death! Even with such a sad ending for my most successfull char so far. MAN was that ending awesome! Sorry for the clusterfuck to everone who actually reads it! haha

Hehe, I guess trusting someone who just shot someone else is not in his nature.. Very smart ;)

Probaly the worst thing I have done. I just entered Stary Sobor, and I hear gunshots. Look around, and sure enough, some dude is blasting away at zombies. I crawl ontop of a building with a good view... And do a live commentary of this guys death xD To his defence, MAN did he put up a fight, took like 5-10 minutes of pure mowing down zombie after zombie, though he never left the town, and they just kept on spawning in. But people on the chat was like "DUDE, HELP HIM, that is just mean!" Could probaly have saved him, if I wasn't enjoying the commentating, it's like UFC.. WITH ZOMBOES! I often throw flares at people in towns if I see them and they don't see me... Once I ended up getting spotted with tons of zombies around me and the guy who saw me. He said "To bad there is so many zombies, easy beans!" Or something like that... I threw a flare right at his face and went into cover! "Fuck me? NO FUCK YOU!" haha. Last i heard from him before he died was "Fuck you!"

Just was at DE7. In the rules they do not allow people to lie about their intentions. Rule: Do not lie about being friendly! What the hell? That seems like putting "unwanted" mechanics into the game, lying and deciveing people is a bandits greatest asset, besides snipers. If people can't handle being lied to... Ohh i could go into very big rants about that. I am not asking for it to be changed, I will simply not play there, or not care about that rule at all... LOL But it seems against the spirit of the mod. So I guess i am the annoing taddle tale against the DE7 host, sorry bro

And it also seems like they "hid" the rule, it doesn't show up right away, happens periodicaly, so you might get kicked for a rule you didn't manage to see if you lie to fast

Sovetsky, Rocket himself said that if you don't like the rules, don't buy a server. Plenty of people who agree to the rules without any trouble, if the server hosts cant, then they should host something else. So don't really see a problem with the rules, it is not like they are doing Rocket a favor and he owes them anything. (like a server to freeroam)

I know, point was though, that at the moment, it is simply 42 units of warmth in the body of the ingame char. No need for farenheit before the 42 reseambles realistic figures ;)

As far as i know, Reinforcement isn't arma 2, and it is a standalone, so it doesn't have arma 2 for compability. I could be wrong, but in this case, doubt it

Munno, you're also bashing the OP for "hating" on people who kill other people... Did you even read the OP? He is bashing people who's whining about, that without a system to keep bandits in check, they will have to resort to going all out deathmatch. Right after having whined about they are getting shot on sight by other morons like themself. He isn't anywhere bashing people for killing other people, because they make sports out of it and have fun with it, WITHOUT whining like small kids that got denied a cookie.
