Agreed that it's probably the best sidearm for sneaking around taking out zombies unnoticed. Lame for pvp though, I was trying to headshot someone camping much less than 100m away and though I was fully rested and kneeling down with the crosshair/iron sights on his head each shot would go way off and I gave up after a clip. I wasn't spraying either, carefully lining up each shot probably shot every 1.5 seconds

if you walk off the side of some things even if its pretty high you can usually get away with losing some blood, ive broken my legs twice from falling once was attempting to get off construction site roof quickest way and another was vaulting over a railing inside a building instead of taking the stairs.

I probably wouldn't take an m9sd for free :P

in that sense I guess it would be ok I mean even if you banned some russians by chance then they wouldn't want to join a high ping UK server anyway they would just join a local Rus server. You wouldnt wanna ban a whole bunch of UK IP's though

im just saying its not that effective, if all it takes is an unbanned guid and fresh ip then they will join your server eventually. Also this is pretty unlikely but if you ban a range of IPs you risk banning other people

later if you do want to just play by yourself there are ways you can start a server from your computer, though it's really boring

dude you shouldn't post ip's, also ip banning is useless since if hes got a dynamic ip he can change it whenever he wants

nah it's a .50 BMG :P

not to mention the smoke when you swing it

it's probably why all these 'clone' threads come up all the time, people use the forum search and on the first/second page there's nothing close to what they are going to post about, so they go ahead and post it but there's already a bunch of them out there.

good idea but it pops up every now and then, if you google (don't use forum search it sucks) dayz forums camoflague net idea you get a lot of stuff coming up.

I think it should stay like this, just infected humans, though have to agree with OP making them run is only annoying because unless you try and lose them behind stuff they stay at your heels until you shoot them. I think maybe they should be slower (not walking maybe just an exhausted, stumbling jog) only they can smell you and will track you down for a couple kilometers unless you get in a vehicle and GTFO. They should also be able to make noises like they do now and that makes nearby infected join the chase. So if you try running through cherno you will have a swarm of infected hounding you. I think it would be terrifying to think you've lost them and set up a fire to cook meat and look back 200m and see 40+ infected coming towards you. Also I think the only lethal thing about zombies atm is bleeding, I only get hurt nowadays because a zombie gets a lucky hit in but I start bleeding and I have to run a couple hundred meters to lose them and bandage, costs a fair bit of blood. the 'monkey' zombies that crawl around on the ground atm look like they are trying to sniff out the trail of a survivor, so maybe the walking ones will follow these crawling types.

combining ammo will surely be in SA and I guess so will mag selection, though that won't matter much since you can combine all your low ammo mags into one

I think it's better than seeing a crashed chopper and knowing the game placed it there and unless it's been searched it will have high tier guns for free. Chopper crashes placed by the game are way too common anyway, I mean how many huey venoms do you see flying around, zero, how many can you find crashed? I crashed an AN-2 the other day because I was trying to fly with little fuel and it was flying good at 60 km/h (I was trying to burn off speed and land quickly before the empty field became thick forest) and suddenly dropped a few km/h and just dropped straight down. I lived but the loot I had in there disappeared.

yeah I think if someone crashes a plane/heli it should keep most of the loot and the vehicle stays there for a set amount of time

this, I haven't played wasteland but I've heard plenty about it, what I know is it's pretty much dayz minus the zombies with a focus on PvP with loads of vehicles and military equipment.

I actually don't mind them, I used to play Namalsk a bit and the first time I ran into one I had no idea what it was and it scared the hell out of me. It chased me for a bit and I panicked and wasted a lot of ammo shooting at where I thought it was, it was fun. I wish there were moments like that in normal DayZ, where you aren't completely certain of what you are up against all the time and it's a heart pounding challenge to beat them.

they grab you because thats what they do in stalker, and I agree they shouldn't really be in dayz (arent they only in namalsk though?) because it's a mutant.

wow 40 slots that's stupidly big when you compare it to how much CARS can store I mean a part of DayZ is finding more stuff than you can carry and you have to make a choice between keeping or dropping items. 40 slots? with that you can just take everything and haul it around no need for a camp

thanks, I just get out early just to be safe but I guess I'll go a lot closer now

the people who get global banned somehow negate the massive DO NOT POST YOUR GLOBAL BAN APPEALS thread, so I doubt this thread will help prevent more retards from posting "durp global baned for nothin just started playin again den whoop ban u unban now lol waste of munny" just wastes moderator's time when they gotta lock the thread and give them the information they should have taken 2 seconds to find out themselves. I think if someone tries to post a thread in ban appeals with "Global Ban" in the title it should prevent it from being posted and redirect them to a thread about global bans

I find vehicles and keep them fixed if I can, only thing to do tbh. Though it makes looting a bit harder because I don't know if it's fixed now and im just retarded but it seems like whenever I drive to buildings theres no loot so I have to get out 150/200m early and run

I guess it's alpha because there's no point in stepping it up and making big changes to the mod since the standalone DayZ is pretty much a separate game and already well underway. Normally though a game would be alpha then beta then released, though standalone will probably be released finished and the mod will stay in alpha.

commander is much better when it comes to patches, don't know why you wouldn't wanna use it anyway it's pretty good he's sayin he hopes OP isn't pissed from everyone telling him to get commander even though it's superior

my opinions: make scoped rifles a little harder to use, stop removing/banning weapons and start adding many more weapons.
