This is somewhat common sense to me.

You should try the new updated map type called Dayz+, you can download it on Commander. What ive noticed is that Dayz+ is harder in general. Ive been playing a whitelisted server for it that you can find at www.DayzPlus.com . Being that it is harder, people arent as quick to shoot on sight. Zombies do about 1100 damage a hit, so youre bound to need a blood bag sooner than later. The first time i was playing it i ran into a random group of survivors about 6 people deep who all met on the road. They took me in very nicely, and we proceeded to run as a pack through Cherno onto Elektro. This server also had no Side chat at all and didnt display when someone died so it is always too quiet to feel safe.

I also want to add that the MK48 with the AimDot is rediculously badass too. You run into a convoy and you will take out the whole friggen thing no matter how many cars they have.

That M14 to me is the best mainly for the fact that it does 8k damage a shot with pinpoint accuracy. Other than that id have to roll out with the M16. This gun has came through for me in the worst situations time and time again just with ironsight, add an ACOG to it and we're in business.

I think the OP is giving the zeds too much thought. sure itd be nice to think that they purposely programmed them to avoid being easy targets but the truth is that the zombies arent moving side to side to act like soldiers. theyre moving this way because they didnt perfect the aggroing of the zeds. it was unintentional, and its more of them only being able to move in certain directions. this will also explain why sometimes when you attract a zombie it runs away from you for a moment. to put it plainly, they still havent worked out all the tweaks for the zombies.

I in fact started this so called rumor. I saw said third nipple after one late night of strip poker.

This is great. I can only contribute with beans though since my photo editing skills dont exist.

Hey guys! I know when you first get DayZ you dont have any servers favorited or anything, and im here to help out some. About 2 months ago i found this server that has a great player base that i can call home for a map other than Chernarus. Its currently on the newest map Taviana, which is a blast! We'd love for you to come by and check us out, even join our teamspeak if youd like. we're always looking for new people to share the fun of DayZ! Teamspeak Info: ts3.thedgclan.com:9217

This server is NOT a private hive. *Admin why did you move this to the Private hive discussion.

Its been down for a few days now while Vilayer worked out some kinks but it is up and running again, Ill see you there!

bump

I'm curious to see what some people would do in these scenarios posted above and what better way than to ask!

Id do the same for #2, not trying to lose anything important

Hackers go to private hives too! i dont know where people got the idea that they dont. whitelisted is the ONLY way to avoid hackers.

Check us out today, ill be on.

Public hives wont have all the shit added into the map. also wont have any custom starter packs.

Steps 1 - 4 kill everyone, how will you execute 5 if no one is left?

Also If i were you id ONLY stick to whitelisted ones. Just because its private hive doesnt mean its hacker free. Script kiddies follow high population.

OrLoK says - don't take this out of context folks the cnp misses out info...

Bump.

The choices i give for the scenarios are all a simple way of a different style of play. Yes i could have used the max 20 answer choices and made 20 different ways to react, but this is just a simple little survey. Not to be taken as fact or truth, just to be observed.

This gives decent insight as to how the majority of people play DayZ.

I wont lie, I bought it for DayZ. But i play regular arma a lot now, Wasteland as well. all in all it was a good buy

lol

Not shooting people pays off in the end. Makes the game more interesting. Then again, it all comes down to reading the situation correctly and responding appropriately.
