Not much going on since my last update except I killed a clown where I don't think they were really expecting anyone to be, was half an hours fun stalking. Now moving towards my 4th month alive with a couple of hundred hours in game with this character.

The wanna be hero asks the freshspawn "do you need food or water?" the real deal ask's "why are you on the coast?" would just be cool if they had an armband on before asking you!

next thing you know there will be respawning broken tents full of them all over Chernarus and the forums? my God imagine the forums? lol..

yeah right, you're going to be dead long before you even see them, specially if they have a thermal AS50! but I wouldn't mind a few of them being there, or even the likes of a couple of Thermal FAL's

A lot of people come to Dayz & they don't even know what they don't know. You need to learn fast that YOU ARE BEING HUNTED BY " A.I ". - Zombies and most importantly "I" - HUMANS. DayZ is a survival game that is played on a Mil Sim engine, that has been played for years by thousands of people who play mil sim's - not first person shooters or mmo's but mil sim's - a totally different beast & they by and large are hunting you care bear in highly organised groups. Tough shit eh? boo hoo you gatherd up a bit of nice kit on an empty server over a few hours, no challenge other than broken "A.I." and as soon as you encounter some "I" on a busy server & die, you stamp your feet and cry and say you're going to leave? see you! you're just not very good at this game, there are people who have been alive in one life the entire length of time you have played. So leave, or, suck it up get in a group and try again.

you gotta be kidding me right? griefing with legbreaks is justice West Belfast style!! look at this video here as an example where a hero goes wrong & kills some slack jawed american teen bragging about being a bandit, the guy kills him where he should of shot him in the legs, bandaged him and left him to think about what he had done, I mean the teabag works, but broken legs is better..

but you do incur a movement penalty carrying two mains, you can't sprint + you would also have no melee weapon (unless they fix bayonet's) so good luck shooting your way out of aggro..

I think the easiest solution that makes sense is to remove melee weapon if two primary weapons are being carried - but only if bayonet's are working properly!!

can anyone tell me how to make the rain work? I just don't see it, I've tired turning Post processing @ normal (usually off) & both hdr levels & I only get messages about getting wet. I don't use AA. i'm stumped. To me it feels a bit like cranking gamma i'd rather the rain be there.

why would you loot a body outside the shop in elektro? or, maybe they were dealing with aggro?

I've just realised I don't see rain, I hear it, I can see it splashing on the ground, I get the wet / not getting wet message spam but I don't actually see the rain, I thought maybe it was because i'd PP disabled but even on normal still nothing rain wise..

was thinking would it be a good idea to be able craft an even larger capacity backpack by adding say further sticks + duct tape, or sticks & rope. something like that?

there is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothing - an old Irish saying.

true story.. On a cold wet Christmas eve a lone survivor started singing "Silent night" on Direct chat at the north west air field and a bloke ran out of the fire station shouting "Get Rekit Motherfucker!!!!!!" blasting an entire 60 round mag and killing the singer. They shut the game and came straight to the forums and made a post about how they were now a KOS bandit, search dates and look at the fist post on Christmas Day in general discussion!! ps - it's true check. pps - hones!!t

"hey how's it going man, come in come in, it's pouring out there, sit down there by the fire and dry yourself off, some nice wild boar stew, with green pepper and tomato cooking, you're more than welcome to some when it's ready" "Get REKIT Motherfucker!!!!!!" *******sprays entire 60 round mag******* YOU ARE DEAD *closes game* *opens forum* new thread - WHY I'M NOW KOS BANDIT!!! grrr grrr grrr

Does anyone understand this business that if you shoot a zombie it remembers you and tracks you every time it spawns, does this mean that very area you go into if that type of zombie spawns it starts to track towards you? what if someone else has killed the same type of zombie also, which one of you will it track? does it work up until server restart?

well they did kinda make them hunt in the mod didn't they as an anti camp mechanic? zombies that you spawned would generally move towards your area, so I got the impression they were now going to remember who killed them and do the same kinda thing.

gotcha, ok then. I was all, uh oh! terminator zombies incoming, prospect of zombies just constantly tracking towards you *shudders*

not much point them adding different types of clothing, weapon cleaning kits, the abilty to make fires etc etc if you're not going to need them? jesus, wait until you have to deal with aggro Z's coming at you in thick fog if you're going to cry like a child over getting a bit wet!

you still with us spooks?

don't worry bakerd with the addition of "accelerated time" rain showers won't last that long, probably just long enough to make those not properly prepared enough to get cold / wet / sick if they cannot at least even make a fire to dry out, don't sweat it & tie yourself up in knots over it yet, stress kills..

1p - 3p

well that fills me with dread 1000 vehicle / full loadout / 3p:on servers on the way then..

I think you'll find in this community that there are bandits / survivors / heroes - you sound like a survivor verging on being a bandit - in cities all bets are off then it's just chaos, do you bring good to the chaos & endure what the hero has to or side with the bandits, it's your story really up to you..

so I guess in a way it was actually quite fun then? huh?
