Can you even shoot drivers from V3S's yet? I tried didn't seem to work so holding your ground may be a little risky. Just sayin'

I play with my monitor off. I use sounds in game to .....never mind :p

Blue tent is available. Have one set up right now.But be careful. Tents seem a little hit and miss at the moment. I have had no issues but have heard that others have. Seems if you leave a fuel (Jerry) can on the ground it will disappear on server restart. Backpacks and weapons (persistent) will not.

Idea: Change your non clan tag to theirs. They will notice you in the list and will piss them off no end! Change your tag to [LOST] InElektro (or something) to flush em out. Bring them to your fight on your terms. Tactics are half the battle. Surround the hills and wait n watch. And just an idea: Don't make plans to battle on public forums. So ignore what I just told you.

"Seriously you need to get laid." lol

Happens to me all the time now.

Wow what a harsh crowd. Most wont give you the slightest bit of sympathy around these parts man. lol. It's dog eat dog. I've been lucky with vehicles thus far. And I've been unlucky when it comes to keeping a character longer than a couple of weeks. I can't stay in the hills.I need action and that brings me undone. :) Bad luck.

lol I have it too. It's a mild shake and only really noticeable when I scope / iron sight in. I've not eaten anyone nor have I been fed anyone. If it was a broken arm would I not see a message etc? If it was the temperature would I not be warned that I am cold or shaking ? That's gold

How about a long range Zucchini? One that attaches to a pitch fork so that I can run about and make pew pew noises? Back on topic: A bowl of cereal would be nice too i guess. If you killed me whilst I ate it then would that make you a cereal killer?

You had me at " rise and powders milk ect"

COD

nasty poo ass copper penny stink sweaty lol

hysterical laugh?

lol best line evah! Green Mountain is haunted. End transmission.

Soon you will get a fatigue system that will limit the amount you can run. Weight should also be a factor to how long you can sustain a sprint.

Yes (as long as nobody happens to find it)...and No respectively.

On experimental last week there was 20 vehicles per server. Not sure if this has changed. Found a five or six. Had two at one time for a short while.

I hate lame databases that list stuff .....wait I'll take that back. DayZ needs to approach how, where and when items spawn a little more intuitively. Can we please have a game where we can sometimes be a little surprised at what we find and where? Can we not have such things as lame ass heli crash site guides due to the fact that we have predetermined crash sites in the first place? Can we please have a little unpredictability to keep this epic game fresh? This game is on the cutting edge of social interaction and is testimony to certain traits in human behavior. it is what we make it.....to a point. The DayZ team have a golden opportunity here to make or break this genre. To look beyond the limitations of the old mod and come up with something truly special. Unfortunately, I see a lot of 're-inventing the wheel' here and copying old routines and standards. A little off topic but a good example is the old Ambient Sound loop we constantly hear in game. I would really hope that things like this are replaced with a more basic 'base' sound loop that carries no random clanging sounds or odd creaks, can openning etc that do not actually occur. This makes no sense!!! The engine is more than capable of creating its own sound based on actual in-game events. Back to the topic. The current loot table can and will be mapped. As it changes people will adjust their databases and provide the info to the public. We now have rudimentary vehicles in game. An already we have a map on where they spawn. Why? I mean I understand why the public sector make these locations public but what about a more dynamic system that calculates vehicle spawn positions from an array of 1000 (rather than 20) possible spawn positions across the map? At least 100 to start with. Why should I know *(after a server restart) where to go to grab a vehicle - or what route to run to find a heli crash - or whatever else DayZ has hard wired into its static code.??!?!?? Deep breath....! I'm aware things may or may not change as we go along. I am fully aware of what Alpha means. But I'm seeing a certain trend of old processes being held onto and engraved in stone. ....and not looking outside the square. Can we please make DayZ a little less predictable and more of an adventure for new and old players alike ? Please ?

Can't be positive but it could be a damaged compass. Check if it's Damaged / Ruined / Worn .....or Pristine. I had a damaged one the other day that was indicating the opposite direction. Found a new one an all was good. (!?) Kinda makes sense.

Although a you seemed to say all that is one breath; In one insane paragraph. I cannot agree more. These days I'd rather play DayZ then watch TV. We make the story. We write the script. A little RP goes a long way. I can't exactly say I like being robbed but if it's gonna happen I'd like it to happen with a little wit. A little humor and attitude. Nice post.

lol. I consider myself to be a somewhat experienced player. Well traveled and able to adapt to most situations. In short, I can survive. Most of my mishaps however are due to poor or sometimes stupid decisions. Not considering a situation clearly enough or rushing into locations without properly scouting out the 'lay of the land' etc. I find most deaths come due to 'dropping my guard' and is usually because I team up with others and fall into the false sense of security category. ie: I tend to survive longer alone and being alone leads to me making more thought out decisions. More planning and more stealth. Of course there sometimes is safety in numbers especially in a fire-fight. That being said, it's not always possible to engage an invisible (hidden) enemy laying in wait. My 2 cents.

Wouldn't it make more sense....or more to the point; wouldn't it be better if fresh spawns found themselves up north? They would have to make their long journey to the major towns on the coast and would not suffer the same 'spawn camping' as we are currently seeing. A simple few lines of code could do the following... 1/ Check from a bunch of random, northern spawns 2/ Is player less than 500 meters from another? If yes....goto 1. 3/ Spawn Player Northern Spawns (to me) make more sense. My 2 cents. Zeo

Don't leave discarded weapons where ppl can find them. You were careless and now you have a nice vacation at the beach.

Chernarus has a charm. It's bleak. it's ordinary. It's real world. It has a real atmosphere. If they were to make a unique map, i hope it would tick the same boxes as the current map. I hope they DO make a 'western' style map. As long as it was a good mix of rural / urban / city. An other idea would be an adjoining map. One that connects to the north and to the west perhaps. That way, the virus (whatever happened to the living) has spread to the nearby countries. Just an idea. Zeo
