Dean hasn't updated his Twitter in, like, days?
Dr.Duff replied to HumanBeing25's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
He is very renowned for being completely unreliable, maybe he left his favourite socks up Everest and had to go back for them? I wouldn't worry, but then I don't care about SA. -
If they behave like a pack, I think that will go a long way for the SA, but I doubt from what I've seen Rocket has even thought of adding that. They still look like zig-zagging, soldiers trying to punch you. Humans are naturally pack animals and what are zombies but humans stripped to their primal instincts? This really needs to be implmented or what is the point of buying he SA except for the ability to grow a beard and wear a crash helmet.

It was actually re-added in 1.7.7 though. It gives players peace of mind but more importantly, it writes the vehicles location, condition and contents to the server sql.

Of all the things you would write on the wall, the worst thing would be if it was actually in comic sans!

Guess the Person's play style above you :)

How.. you guys know me far too well! It's the signature, isn't it? Damn! You look for people to help and assist, then get killed by zeds trying to be a hero. -

Spot on. I then eat them. -
where should we spawn in standalone?
Dr.Duff replied to dgeesio's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Is this debate still going on? R A N D O M That's is the only answer this thread needs, if you want expansion on that, see my previous post. -
Installed vie Steam, launched through Commander. I used to like Steam just for the auto-run feature using the over-lay. I don't know of any bugs regarding the Steam version, I've always used it without any problems.

Again, the bat is just as accurate as the machete, it does less damage. Even a barbed and nailed bat still does less than a machete. Practice my technique, see if it works for you.
-
I aim in 3rd person when using a machete, I place my head just under their chin and swing once, I rarely miss. It certainly isn't a dice roll. It's jsut getting the right rechnique down for you.

Seeing as I was missed out, I'll post again. The kind of guy who says "friendly" before going into your pack and robbing your beans! -
I'm scared!

Ah yes the universal word that says "Hello, yes I am over here kill me for my beans!" -

Covered in shit, bogies and wee! -
This wreaks of meta more than side chat.

Dr.Duff replied to dgeesio's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Random, literally it should be anywhere in the entire map. One thing I hate about the spawn system in the mod is it's only ever the coast, or if a server has a spawn select it's a city. You should have no choice and it should be possible to spawn in the middle of the woods with no idea where the hell you are. This will cut down on people running back to their bodies, when you're dead, you start over. That is how DayZ should be,- 51 replies

Why on earth would you....? In all seriousness though, put your weapon in your backpack, or shoulder it and equip a secondary. During testing on our server, I dropped weapons to pick up melee weapons a lot and never had this bug, so I don't think it's a regular thing. Could have been lag on your part or the servers.
-
OMG NO! If you don't want to see or fight zombies why in hell are you playing a zombie sim? The way zeds now IMO are perfect. You see a lot of them spread out around your general area, not clustered. So they don't neccessarily give away your position to other players now. They hit hard, so dealing with them has to be thought about. Plus they actually carry less loot drops than before, which is a good thing. I never take anything off a dead zed, due to the fear of infection. Please, stop whining (yes, whining because to me your posts read like a childs) and learn how to deal with them, everyone else has.
-
No, it doesn't. But if you're hitting them in the chest with a machete, you're doing it wrong. I said this only yesterday to a fellow admin. Don't crouch when melee fighting, there is no point. 1) You're already spotted or you wouldn't be swinging, 2) You have to arch your back to get a head shot. Nothing like a stealth kill on a zed though, sneak up behind, stand up and THWACK!
-
If you want zombies that are easy to kill, go play Minecraft. Personally, I like the fact that zombies are now something to be avoided, I mean this IS the ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE YO? Not a hiking sim, nor a bolemia sim (that's a reference to the amount of food laying everywhere..no? k..) But in all seriousness, why do people not want zombies to be dangerous in a ZOMBIE SURVIVAL GAME!?!?!? God, please don't make me invoke the ajaabadger!

Please don't remove the "bug" that allows you to carry and holster two primaries. The argument "it ruins immersion" or "it isn't reallistic" is just absurd. Using two primaries, an M14 and a Winchester, for example has meant that I no longer have to carry a secondary, allowing me to fill up my secondary ammo slots with bandages and wipes. I know it was an un-intended feature but surely that is something they would've play-tested?
-
Machete, all day long. I even prefer to hunt survivors, tracking them until I can get close enough to cut their fucking head off.

Picks the female skin and insists it's to perve at her ass. -
They can hit up to as much as 4k blood, at least that's the most amount of damage I've recieved from a single zed. If they hit you hard enough to cause level 3 bleeding then it can feel like an insta-gib. Not looked into fishing yet, I'll hop on and check it out,
