DayZ standalone suggestion: No escape from night. No time shifting and serverhopping. Permanent time offset.
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to DZR_Mikhail's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
No, I mean that the devs can't do anything to make sure people don't abuse this particular mechanic other than telling them not to be pussies (by switching servers when it gets dark) As in, the player who does that, is a pussy. I'm with you on the idea but if that makes me unable to play with my friends then it's not something I would like. -

Nope.avi What am I going to do if I have a friend who is in a different timezone? While I value anything that promotes the aspect of horror/danger I am not going to sacrifice the ability to play with friends for it. I don't think there's much you can do other than "don't be a pussy". -
Zombies are too Powerful
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to dakilla187's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You're joking right? Despite what everyone says, you can fire a lee enfield inside cherno and be a-ok What you need to do is learn how their AI works and avoid them. If you aggro them, you still need to know how their AI works then and not get hit. Obviously you're at fault if you know you're going to aggro zombies and have less than 9k blood. Personally, I don't attract attention to myself ever (see sig), but even if I had to, I'd make sure I was at full health before that. -

I'm not familiar with prices on the UK, so if you know a site that lets you make custom pcs send me the link and I'll help you get something with that budget.

What's the PDW supposed to be?
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to echo38's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Type micro uzi on google, it is a real gun and it does exist. It does not accept mags from mp5/m9/glock or whatever (they don't fit). It does however use the same bullets (9x19mm). -
Speaking of douchebags, why did you pick up hacked gear ? Also, what made you think that sharing it with us in the forums is a good idea?
-
An extremely friendly player using a hacked loadout asking for changes on the bandit skin. Seems legit.
-
Does this thing even exist? The answer is yes and is brought to you by Cherno Journo ! What do you guys think? I'm a fan of Cherno's effort of showing gamers why DayZ is so special and I was happy to be interviewed :D PS: I'm also happy that I'm the first guy interviewed who hasn't killed anyone and for any reason - to show there's hope in humanity still :P

PVP 4 vs 1 And A Bunch Of Zombies
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to brentp (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
You shot him a total of three times, it could be that he was incredibly lucky and didn't bleed/pass out. That would leave him with 1335 blood supposing he had 12k before. If he was smart, he could have eaten a couple of steaks in the time you were looking for him after the first shot, lowering the chances of passing out. Unless you do more than 12k damage without giving the other player time to do anything you can't be sure. PS : No offense you handled that situation badly, I could tell where he was after the 3rd time he shot you guys and went nuts while I was watching you move the other way :P -
We already have tyson zombies, that's enough I think. I do agree that it's retarded that zombies can't seem to hit you when you are on a bike/atv/motorcycle though - but that's an arma issue I believe.

I agree with the idea of bullet proof vest but bear in mind the following from the real world : Most vests stop bullets from sidearms (most of them - some will still penetrate them). Those are mostly used by police/security forces etc. There *are* vests that stop bullets from assault rifles (5.56 rounds not 7.62) but they severly limit your mobility. Those are military grade and way more rare. Sniper rifles are out of the question. Anything below a 50 cal will need armored plating found in tanks in order to stop and 50 cal will penetrate even that. With the current weapons in the game a vest would only stop bullets from all shotguns, the makarov, the revolver (with it's current 45. acp ammo) the m1911 and all silenced weapons with the exception of the m4. 9mm guns overpenetrate -> they go through kevlar vests because of their smaller shape and faster bullet velocity .40 and .45 CAN be stopped by ordinary vests but will certainly throw you down (they are called manstoppers for a reason). Getting shot while wearing a vest hurts like hell and could cause internal bleeding because of the force of the impact alone. So essentially, even if you wear a vest - if you get shot (on the vest) by anything other than a makarov you're gonna have a bad day. So what we're looking for is a slightly buffed version of the vest that the hero skin has, which is not exclusive to hero players but can be picked up by anyone. PS: There are loads of info you can find about ballistics on youtube/wiki.

Friendlies at NWAF? It was always going to end in tears.
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to chernojourno's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
You can see what happened before he went to NWA here (http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/100354-as50-ghillied-sniper-friendly/). I was creeping around the edge of the airport at the fence while this was all happening :P -
Although the guy was a complete retard, deciding to ignore you as soon as you left the ladder you *could* get the drop on him if you climbed the ladder by tapping the keys -> you'd make no sound.

AS50 Ghillied sniper - > friendly ?
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to Mandalore (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Herpderp, I was looking for my thread and just noticed it's in the new player discussion. Can we move this to the gallery? -
It's a game with a very steep learning curve. I used the first day (while I was downloading the game) - the whole damn day reading guides and watching videos and tutorials on how to do stuff and I still had loads of questions. Which I answered on my own because I found out the hard way. I'd certainly advise you to check the wiki here (http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page) and the map here (http://www.dayzdb.com/map) you will need those constantly open for the first 2-3 weeks of playing. Other than that, well there are plenty of guides for pretty much everything, youtube and google are your friends! Good luck

One of them broke my legs through a wall. Talk about power.

Third person and first person - you decide
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to Bombolz (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
No reason to remove it, since you have the option to play on expert servers that have 1st person only. Everyone gets what they want. -
It depends on what you need the gun for. If you want to kill players go with the AK. It's very reliable and can kill players in 2-3 hits. You should know however that it makes a LOT of noise which is something you need to avoid if : you want to have a personal defense weapon - where you should get the winchester. It's the best gun you can get (silenced guns excluded) for killing zeds that aggroed on you because you can take them out with one hit and it makes low noise.

Had my first upsetting death last night.
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to a_typical_noob's topic in New Player Discussion
Always have 1 morphine 1 painkiller 1 water bottle/soda and a couple of steaks in your primary inventory. The water bottle isn't very important if you are low on space you can keep it in your backpack. The others are a must. You should have shot the zed who got your leg through the wall hit the morphine and haul ass. -
Short Campaign, Single Player Free Roam
Mandalore (DayZ) replied to Holliday (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I'm game for an intro/tutorial or even a full SP experience but it shouldn't carry over anything to the MP other than what you have learned.
