. You missed an 'o' in the word to. It should be 'too' small. It's not something I've ever really noticed much but I can see what you mean. Could it be that the population of Chernarus are generally small while us survivors are big lads from Yorkshire looking for whilte bread and lard? Mind you, in some places these days plenty of peole have problems passing through doorways, so I suppose DayZ has its finger on the pulse of modern society, zeitgeist style :rolleyes:

Equally helplful

Nice post, you may need to back it up a little with 'facts'.

Combat logging and server hopping. Two sides of the same wanky coin. Shame on you I say, shame >:( Thank christ there are no cheat codes or god mode in DayZ SA. I imagine: "But yeah I need god mode cos if someone shoots me I might die and have to start again with no loot boo hoo" :rolleyes:
-
If I haven't enough to eat and the town is looted I may starve and die. That's the point of the game. Survival. Server hopping for loot is pretty weak.

Ladder and stair glitch (not insta deaths)
philbottle replied to TheStevieJ's topic in General Discussion
Premature bumping is frowned upon in these here parts :) take it easy dude. Ladders in the mod were the bane of my life til they kind of fixed it. -
Am I naive in wanting to learn the map myself?
philbottle replied to General Desire's topic in New Player Discussion
Nice topic. I have been avoiding maps, wiki, this forum and anything that could help me out. I learned Chernarus playing the mod and arma but it was a pleasure to find new map features (e.g. military barracks) I wasn't expecting. I actually got lost on one trip from Elektro to NWA and found myself at Devil's Castle. Teamspeak though I do use if I'm playing with friends, sorry Orlok :( -
Actions having cumulative consequences is a great idea, I really like it. If you eat bad food you get ill in DayZ, so if you do horrible things then some strange physchocological tick or trait is an awesome idea. I can imagine our very own KoS walking round muttering to his gun about how he wants to do sexy time things to it, all without realising it :lol:

We've been bugging them for over a year to release the game, warts and all. I'm glad they did and it's possible you just don't get it. What a shame for you, personally I'm loving it :)
-
In addition to GPU I do remember Dean mentioning CPU is still important and having an SSD helps considerably. Glad I prepared :)
-
I'm on 96%. Before I go in: thanks to one and all and keep up the good work ;)
-
Now that's done with. Let's tackle world peace and hunger. :)

Like S&P I like to use my imagination and go on funny errands and missions. That's the beauty of DayZ, if you have a little imagination you will always have fun :)
-
It's still available at the top of this page: http://dayzmod.com/ Surprise surprise the average has come down a fair bit :)
-
To be fair when that happened I did roll my eyes and think of KoS. Those tower blocks will be his playground :rolleyes: :lol:

"Hick's List" Post on Reddit
philbottle replied to Pvt. Hudson's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
As they used to say: "empty vessels make the most noise". I was laughing at first at all the tantrums and ignorance but then it just made me sad. If I was making the SA, crap like that would get me down, that team must have some thick skins :rolleyes: -

Another Quick Update 5 December 2013
philbottle replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
You can't say fair warning hasn't been given that this will be a work in progress, being part of that will be something new for me and I'm looking forward to it. I do seem to have been sucked onto that choo choo train though you mad bastards :lol: -

December Round-up: ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ GIVE SA
philbottle replied to SmashT's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
Seriously, I've been playing the mod over a year and never get bored. There does seem to be a lot of people playing like it's battlefield or cod but the funny thing about that is that they have never really played DayZ properly and are therefore very impatient and quite bad at the game, so they are easy to deal with. There are also a lot of good servers still. And the devs have continued to work on making it better, you should try re-installing and having fun with it. When the SA releases it will be a pleasant surprise. That's what I tell myself anyway :lol: -
Old Horse, you're new to DayZ I think, no? For many people the Mod is about imagination as much as anything else. As has been suggested I would think having handcuffs (that you can eventually escape from) is a great aid. Think of the possibilities. One thing that led me to DayZ in the first place was a video of a guy being held up and then kidnapped in a bus. Blew my mind I kid you not. That's what make DayZ Dayz rather than just another excuse for a shooter :)

December Round-up: ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ GIVE SA
philbottle replied to SmashT's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
I someone came running at me with an axe while wearing that mask I would probably have to change my underwear at some point. Clowns scare the living bejaysus out of me. As far as the SA goes, for me it's looking great. Every time I start to get jealous of the guys playing with it already I jump straight into the Mod. Let us not forget that the Mod still rocks and is the reason we are all here :) -
Comedy Sketch - Unofficial Dayz Standalone update
philbottle replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Haven't watched it all yet but that's excellent work mate, if I was Dean watching this back I'd be pissing myself with laughter :lol: -
i love the fact that we may see whole logging companies and RIVERS. i love that we will have rivers I reserve the right to start protesting at illegal logging, and I'm not talking about the khazi, innit :)
-
I only clicked this thread because I thought we were going to be talking about how great cyclists are and how motorists are the devil. Damn. But I stayed because while I rarely use vehicles in DayZ, when I do, the bike is number 1 in my list. Silent and easy(ish) to hide. Great info btw! :)
