I wouldnt say that, all my stuff was in worn condition. It might have something to do with the Gorka clothing, I was wearing full gorka Autum camo gear, which was totally ruined after the second knock out.

After reading that wall of text, I can tell you have not followed development closely from the getgo Lots of things were promised to be in at the Get go and no one seems to understand what that means. Server based loot spawning was promised from the start, a system where one big computer controls all of the loot spawning across all servers, and states how much of what items may spawn. along with that many others things you are talking about are promised to be in the game, and since they are not. this remains an alpha. this game may never get out of alpha until one simple problem is fixed, and thats KOS, the lack of player interaction. and sadly the only way the KOS problem can be fixed is with Game admins, that can govern and watch the server. This is also flawed however because admins like to abuse the game. Biggest problem that will always prevent this game from alpha is death-matching. Yes its a part of the game, but its too much of the game.

Assless Chaps

Yea I walked into vybor with a freind and saw this going on, I made a thread about it as well. Not sure if hack, or just another dayz bug.

I want to make my own, in game out of ramshackle parts

My long lasting character ran with this sonofawanker

Because if someone has a gun out when trading I always have someone with me backing me up. You need to understand that not everyone is a Asshat in DayZ and some people enjoy the fact that someone is going out of their way to trade with folk to better the wasteland. I hate the "OMG I SEE A GUY BRAVO ECHO FOXTROT 1000M TO THE WEST FLANK AROUND AND SHOOT HIM!!!!" mentality of dayz, its a gawt dang survival game, not a shoot each other and end humanity game. Ive actually had multiple bandits admit they were going to kill me after I gave them bullets for their gun, but did not after actually conversing and trading with me. So, there is hope in some of the dayz community, ive only been killed once since I started trading and it was because I was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I dont know what kind of bows you have been shooting, but nearly all bows are only effective at a maximum at 50 yards And any shots you take are normally at around 30 100? Good luck hitting that with a compound or a crossbow. We need a mechanic where if you land an arrow in someone, and they keep moving, its going to tear them a new @$$hole because thats what arrows do in real life, they tear you a new one the more you move.

Not always the case, I found two heavily armed guys in a feild today while walking with a friend a little bit west of Berizino. They aimed their M4's at us and I stopped and put my hands up and started walking in their direction. I am guessing if I didn't do this, that they would have shot me down had I got closer running at the speed i was running. Weapon drawn/visible or not.

I need monies put into the game. I am a trader and telling passer-bys that I use 5.56 as currency, most of them look at my funny and say, I dont have any 5.56 to trade. 1 bullet = 1 Can of food 5 bullets = Water Bottle/Canteen 20 bullets = Magazine 10 bullets = Misc tool that has a use ^ Thats pretty much all ive got otherwise I trade with people with the good old barter system. Even today, I traded a bottle of water for a bag of rice at gunpoint! If I said no, who knows what would have had happend? hopefully, we see the implementation of some sort of money, or currency. Something that will actually work. Because trading 5.56 would be plausible if 5.56 wasn't so easy to get ahold of.

it means the server has extra mods, or you do. If its on your side, its because you are trying to load something the server doesnt have, onto the server. So remove anything that doesn't have to do with DayZ in the expansions section.

I want to know what the "55 gal drum" is going to be used for. does it contain lube?

1. How does rolling in grass camouflage your clothing? 2. if the game gets stale for you, try being a traveling trader. Like me

No, this is not the case. Loot only spawns once, and its at the start of the server. and does not re spawn until another restart. I have found many pilfered Heli-Crash sites.

This was piss poor in my opinion, you didn't even loot those guys. Karma The m4 guy deserved it, the Boonie hat guy didnt. And im not sure that was a hack, more of a bug. Ive came across servers where there were tons of those guys at that spot. I think its a bug, not a hack.

im confused, is this a trade you are looking for?

Nah Lets just get dat AS50 back

So I started a trade run today, on a fairly popular RP server, Go to berizino, and this time I was alone. No body guard. I find a guy, and quickly we trade each other for some odds and ends (I give him SKS ammo for a Mosin Compensator) For being my first Customer, I give him a Pristine Pilot helmet for free (Hey the guy was nice and helpful, sold me some info on bandits nearby) So then I walk my way down heading towards the crashed boat, only to be stopped by the same guy who needs help making a backpack, I help him and he goes on his way. I walk a few feet more and see someone running fully geared nearby, I aproach slowly (Keep in mind I am unarmed, sort of) I say, Hey! Im a trading, I travel from town to town Trading goods with people, this guy perks up and says "Ive never met a trader in dayz before, Holy crap! thats awsome!" Shortly after a guy comes over and tells us to put our hands up! this ended up being a joke and he was with the guy I was talking to. We exchange some food and bandages, and another guy comes up with a AKM dressed like a red gangster and says EVERYONE PUT YOUR HANDS UP! Now my heart jumps, and I hit some hard cover nearby, and pull out my Engraved Baller 1911, everyone else is compliant, I lean and pop 3 shots into his Center of mass BLAM BLAM BLAM! everyone starts shouting "Stop! Stop! it was a joke!" I apologize and a random guy (RPing as a german doctor) shows up randomly and starts fixing the poor guy I just shot. We talk and fix each other up, and not 1 minute later the guy I met comes over and joins the group. At this point there is about 6 of us, and the doctor wants to do a "Experiment" on the guy I gave the pilot helmet to. In short, after some papers are sighned, we give him a blood transfusion and he lives. It was a great time, and if anyone who reads this was in that group, Add me! My Steam is Leviski!

Everyone always needs bullets And I need those batteries from fresh spawns. Even if, I could care less if I trade a AKM for a can of beans, the fact that im playing the role I want to play suits me and gives me alot more enjoyment out of the game. I really cant wait for Radios to actually work in-game so I can announce my trade routes, and deal with bandits, and people needing supplies, and other things.

You should defenetly change that attitude to "Trading players for random loot" We need more Traveling Traders like myself.

Its alot worse when you loose stuff that isnt in the game anymore because a hacker kills you.... If I get killed by a hacker in game again, when fully geared with a long liasting toon, Im done with dayz until further notice. And FFS if map hacks are still a fing thing, then im never placing a tent because the hackers will always find them. Why bother with persistence if the hackers can just find your hidden loot and steal it?

The new Z spawning thing, works like this Zombie dies Zombie slides 10-15Ft away Zombie Re-spawns Zombie Re-aggros rinse and repeat, it is very stupid they work like this atm.

Ive managed to gather all this Nice guy looking trader gear to start a trading Co. and Now im just waiting for the wipe before I get serious. Probably in a month or so, we will see this wipe.

nothing to sooth your own nerves like some cowboy music,

Walking down a road, when I see two guys fighting and many, many people around them. So I pull out my AKM, and my freind takes out his, and this toon is going for a trader playstyle, so normaly all my weapons are concealed, but I picked up this AKM with the 75 round drum and aproached them, here is what I saw. Two of the guys were killing the clones, and said something about a hacker so immediatly, I dropped some food and ran off and then logged in fear of getting hacked to death. but look at the pics! having problems with the forums, so only one pic would work.
