Hydra (DayZ)

I believe the vehicle respawn time is something like 7 days.

Don't you understand? The Dew Gods only allow certain people to pick up mountain dew cans, as they are direct lines of communication between you and the mountain dew/bean gods. Not all are fit. The mountain dew gods do not wish for the cans to be left smoldering in some backwater apartment, they wish them to be carried around the world. Bt theses gods are angry... They demand the blood of the innocent as tribute. As long as they are sated, they will protect you until you drop the mountain dew. Oh, and I usually drink a can once a week on top of Green Mountain as tribute.

Two accounts= two characters. You can be an asshole with -1million humanity in one and a hero on the other. This thread is gonna be locked pretty soon, anyways.

A well versed and intelligent argument. Not in any way needlessly offensive.

Besides meat on the proverbial bone. What the fuck is the point of making this thread?

As a prophet for the mountain dew gods, I have positive experiences when carrying a can on me. -It seems to keep me alive in impossible situations -I always seem to get the drop on my enemies whenever I have a can on me -My aim is always true with mountain dew. My best mountain dew story probably has to come with me finding my first can. Just as I picked it up and walked out of a building in Berezino, I got shot in the chest with an enfield. The player that shot me was then kicked due to Battle Eye not responding or some shit. I wake up and bandage, then sit in cover across the street. The bastard comes right on back in, and I pop him in the back of the head with a fucking crossbow. He drops, instant kill. Just as that happened, some asshole was firing a M249 near the military camp. I pick up my poor victim's enfield and head on over. Turns out there was a group of 4 ghillie wookies with high grade weaponry looting the place. I engage at 400 or so yards. I fire at the first man. My first shot lands directly in his face. He's dead, and the others run for cover. I shoot another as he tries to run away. His legs are probably broken, he passes out. I run down to the camp and quickly look for the other two. I FUCKING GET TOSSED 20 FEET FROM A FRAG GRENADE. I'm alive, passed out, not bleeding... 1500 blood. Three dudes, including the guy I supposedly broke the legs of, I think, come over to me and loot me. They take everything in my ALICE pack, and I sit, twiddling my thumbs, waiting for them to finish me off. Something was wrong, or so very, very right. After 30 or so seconds, they regroup and start heading north, away from me. I assume that they thought I was dead or something, but they would have to be idiots to assume that. I get up a minute later and look about, still at 1500 blood. The group was headed NW, only 200 meters or so in front of me... They must have looted my headshot victim's corpse or something. I follow them for about half an hour, struggling to keep track of them through the underbrush, trees, their ghillie suits, and my passing out. But alas, I had followed them for the right amount of time, as they "led" me directly to a bunch of tents and a UAZ. Then it was on like Donkey Kong, and they all lie passed out on the ground. They don't ALT F4, grasping to hope I would think. Their hope was baseless. I walked over to execute them one by one, then passed out on top of them. After 10 seconds, I get up, then I proceed to execute them one by one. I then take what I want from their camp, crushing the tents afterwards with the UAZ. --- And that was my first mountain dew adventure. I have no bloody idea why people call it unlucky.

The Mk48 is a sexy weapon. Underrated? M24. I can get headshots on players at 900 meters without much difficulty... It is actually more accurate for me than the AS50.

Just like the helicopter, you don't want to go balls deep immediately before you have any amount of experience. Anyways, thank you for not combat logging... I would give you a can of Mountain Dew, but there is only an option to give you beans.

Rule #1 for DayZ sniping... Don't choose an idiotic hide. The city hall in Cherno is one of the worst possible spots you can be. You are open to counter snipers from the hills, the industrial building roofs, and from anywhere on the streets. You want a spot that- 1: is not instantly suspected as your spot should someone hear the report of your rifle. Don't sit on rooftops if there is an area/building with more altitude than your spot. 2: has an easy spot to bug out from. Don't corner yourself by sitting on a roof with only 1-2 exits... Especially if those exits are ladders. 3: provides good cover. You want to have cover in reach should a round from a counter sniper hit near you. Laying down next to trees and rolling behind them is ideal. Yes.

Your cover is smeared in feces. Nice triple post. You aren't exactly allowing us to gauge your thought process...

I like how you have him talk with an accent. "Is good plan, yes?"

Your grammar gave me cancer. And most of these idea have already been presented in a much more logical, reputable, and understandable manner.

Get me a radio.

If a real life apocalypse came about, I would at least try not to be a dick... But a man desperate for substance, desperate for life, is known to do some nasty fucking things... Personally I wouldn't stick around populated areas for long. More human interaction means more chance of a psycho trying to kill me and cook me up. To be truthful, I have no fucking idea what I would do in a zombie apocalypse.

And I believe that anyone with the right amount of chromosomes would have easily shot you in the back, regardless of emotional state.

A dude stands behind you and sees you killing shit... He apparently had a weapon and didn't shoot you because he was afraid. Bullshit.

Yep yep. Happened last week --- Spawned in Kamenka, city of death. A group of 7 or 8 wookies were sitting there with powerful gear. They spot me and another survivor and act all friendly and shit. They take us to our camp. They off the other dude for not following their directions... Bastards killed Timmy. We get to their camp, and they bid me gather as much gear as I'd like. I find a satchel charge. To my astonishment, they build a fireplace and all sit around it. I run over to the fire and place the explosive. They thought I was just fucking with the fireplace. I back up a safe distance, then scream "FOR TIMMY!" into direct and touch off the charge. All 7-8 are instantly killed. They start freaking out in the side chat. I talk to them in it while I take what I want from their bodies, tents, and vehicles, then hide the bodies, destroy the tents, and destroy all of their vehicles save their helicopter, which I stole and jumped out of near Cherno. The chopper collides with the city hall and apparently kills another... As I safely float down to the ground with a parachute. I was very aroused at that point. Fuck I need to get fraps.

We can dance if you want to, we can leave your friends behind, 'cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance well they're no friends of mine...

Won't be disturbed? I've been teleported into the air on a 5 player server before.

My group has been playing capture the flag with another group over our ural for quite some time. Basically, DayZ has many "modes", you merely need to find/enact them.

Give it to me and I will shower you with gifts. Name it and you have it.

I wonder if there are going to be any hackers present... I doubt it, you certainly have an intimidating username.

The idiots and the fatties are the first to die.

I'm prepared. I've got myself a .22 pistol (ammo is really friggin' common, can be found in hardware shops, round is large enough to kill someone with a headshot.) and a .308 Remmy model 700. And a panda costume. Why? If I get turned into a zed, I at least want to be well fed. Ain't no-one gonna shoot a panda. And If they do, well, at least I provided comic relief.

I hope you realize that Rocket and the devs do not have infinite time on their hands to work. The correlation between the devs "focusing on the standalone" and the amount of hackers is that the standalone itself will fix the hacker problem. And by the way, this whole thing IS a big giant experiment. An experiment to see how people react to this mod and what they do in it in order to produce the best possible and most badass game that they can make. And about the "community receding", it is true. We lose people every day. It is certainly true, but there is another truth here. We gain members every day, due in no small part to you and other like you that bring their friends and family into the fray. One other thing before I conclude my "rebuttal": Thank fuck you presented your opinion in an intelligent and understandable manner. In closing, all who actually give a damn about the game, those who actually embrace it as a project that they are given the privilege of helping with, will stick around. Hell nor high water, nor hackers will shove us off of the edge. As our characters in the game survive, so must we as testers. If we expect the zenith of DayZ to be anywhere near as badass as we imagine, we will have to endure. Here's a .gif of a cockatiel shoving a turtle into a trashcan. Oh, and the people who bitch about the game being too hard and leaving can go back to suckling on mama's teet for all I care.
