Welch (DayZ)

Whenever I'm trying to play and I get disconnected, so I try a different server, and wait for the spawn-in timer when switching servers, just to get kicked again for connection issues. After it happening a multitude of times I'm just about done with DayZ for the day.

At first I tried being friendly, but after being killed a bunch of times I decided it was pointless to try and be cool with people so I turned bandit. But after a while of that, even if fun, I thought there's got to be more. So what I focus on now is just trying to live as long as I can and completing personal goals for myself, and I attempt to be friendly towards others unless they come at me guns blazing.

The mod definitely was not as serious as the SA. You could find ammo and guns lickety-split and go on to kill people in Elektro. The Standalone definitely takes longer to progress. While I did enjoy the mod very much, I can see myself liking the standalone much more when it develops further and gets into the later stages.

Do you find many animals when out and about, if so, where? I've done my fair share of exploring and running around in the sticks and I never see any game. You'd think in a world where the number of hunters has gone down to nearly zero, there'd be a plethora of animals.

This isn't me, but this dude on Reddit posted this and to me it seems like the most badass one yet.

It's beautiful...

Good luck finding a good server amongst all the Epoch servers...

So does this mean to expect Alpha very soon?

Why all the love for Epoch anyway? I think it's just vanilla with some money system involved for faster vehicles...

You should keep us all posted who aren't participating. I'm trying to keep myself busy by not playing video games, but if I had the time I'd do it. So I'm interested, and I'd love to hear more!

But can't you just play iTunes in the background while playing?

I thought this was going to be that stupid zig-zag up the hill, but this is actually pretty nifty! Nice bug find, hope it doesn't get deleted!

I've always wanted my holster to be filled with a sidearm. It's quite stupid that you can sling your gun onto your back and it stays, but the action of holstering your pistol and it disappears is stupid. I just want to have a Mexican standoff, that's all!

Oh sorry, my bad. I don't read half the shit I respond to.... But yes, now that you say that, it's better!

The Vybor spawn is OP, considering you're like a kilometer from NWAF, and therefore you can easily pick up good weapons and gear from Vybor store/barracks. But I'm pretty sure that the new update allows spawn-choosing, so go for it.

I've met only cool hackers, like one rolled up in a white Hilux once, spawned every gun in the game for me, and we went and killed some bandits. It was awesome!

That makes too much sense. Friendlies are bad.

It makes sense for people to have mics. Arma itself costs 30+ dollars, I think? And plus a decent computer to play Arma2/DayZ well, you'd think that people could afford a mic.

Friendlies in Cherno!?

Well Arma 3's got Alpha and Beta. Those are copies that you can buy before the full release, at a discounted price, so I'd say it's better than pre-ordering. Same as Standalone, it'll be available for Alpha purchase which will be cheaper than the full-release. Plus you get to play early.

Jordan. Where have you been, my darling?

I'll kill you. NO MERCY!

Jesushead caps.

Right, because it's easy to stop yourself from getting shot while running through the woods or right after spawning. Sure, if you stop sprinting into Elektro, you'll probably live longer, but that won't stop the inevitable.

Well the higher they are in elevation, the dimmer the light is on the ground. The only real way to hide is get behind something that blocks the light. But you've got to think, who is going to go through the map in a grid formation with a helicopter looking for camps? It's easier to just check the main camp-spots, so just keep out of those areas.
