    Tips for a new DayZ Player?

    run very very fast towards the nearest cover when attacked, try to ascertain location and gun type/s, take a second, get your breath back, check your mag and scream in local 'FRIENDLY, DON'T SHOOT', then charge the nearest enemy firing with extreme prejudice

    would be sweet, they'd have to rework the machanics of revolvers to allow for chamber spin =)
  4. true dat, it's just dayz and games like it, games that push the parameters and stretch hardware to it's absolute limits will always arrive on pc first and console years later, by which time even more awesomeness will be popping up on pc's which will also be way out of reach to consoles due to their inherent limitations for a few years, until consoles catch up again by which time even more incredible ground breaking games will begin springing up on pc's......... etc....etc....etc consoles are great, i love consoles, but pc's are where the dayz's of this world arrive first. And let's be honest here, Dayz with all it's flaws and issues and hackers, when you first played it it completely rocked your world and altered what we expect from a computer game. I know console only gamers that would sell their mothers womb for a PC after they got a taste of Dayz.
  5. Top end gaming PC today is like Usain Bolt as he is now with 6 hungry lions chasing him Current generation of consoles are like Usain Bolt aged 45 with the early onset of arthritis and a drink problem Next gen consoles will be like Usain Bolt as he is now with 1 hungry wombat chasing him Top end Gaming PC's at the time of the next gen console launch date will be like Usain Bolt strapped to an intercontinental ballistic missile etc etc etc
  6. EDIT - you're preaching to the converted buddy, consoles are fkn awesome, i was playing my megadrive today, jt still makes me grin like a kid. i just like gaming pc's because what you basically get is a glimpse at the future of console games 5 - 6 years in advance. Plus it's where all the innovators are trying new tricks with hardware and software, the pc is the nursery of the next gen consoles =) EDIT - I mean have you seen the face of a non pc gamer, an xbox 360 owner for example when he sees the demo for Arma3 played at max settings for the very first time? it's like watching someone have a religious experience.
  7. I am a 'gaming in general on any platform Atari2600/ZXSpeccy to PS3/Xbox and everything in between' fanboy but I'm also a 'behemoth pushing the envelope gaming PC beast' groupie, i just get that consoles are basically based on 2-3 year old, upper mid range gaming pc's, and that is at launch.
  8. xbox720 will be definitely be able to run the Standalone no worries, the map will be about the size of balota and up to 4 players will be able to enjoy multiplayer thrills and spills, what is truly exciting for me however is the news that textures will run at a whopping 240 pixels and 3 zeds will be able to spawn at once, but only at the expense of reduced trees and foliage, well at the expense of all trees and foliage. The xbox1440 scheduled for release in 2026 will be able to run all the above to 480 pixels and with a map the size of balota and kamenka (yes both) with 6 zeds and 12 trees. EDIT - you will need to invest in a liquid nitrogen cooling system though unfortunately.
  9. Come the Standalone we'll all be pooing and weeing on a regular basis, there's gonna be health and safety issues connected with pooing and weeing, we'll be needing diapers me thinks. Imagine the following, you are about to hit a city for a little looting, last time you did that you got caught with your pants down, literally with your pants down around your ankles. This time however you're going to learn from that fatal mistake, no getting rushed by bandits while you crouch in a corner of the firehouse laying a cable, oh no, this time you'll carry your waste around with you in your nice baggy man diaper. Once your looting mission is complete and you've safely ex-fil'd from the city hot zone you can find a quiet spot in the woods and safely dispose or better yet at another players tent, deposit your weighty poo-towel right there amongst the ammo and cooked meat. Be a great way to share any diseases you may be carrying with unsuspecting survivors. Edit:- You could also troll by sneaking up on a player and depositing a soiled nappy in his backpack, that would mean all his gear is potentially infected with cholera/typhoid or whatever and would either need to be dumped or disinfected before safe to use. Win win, the diaper makes you safer and doubles as a weapon.

    Drowning

    beans drowning should be in the game, maybe things like your health or hunger levels should dictate how far you can swim before you cramp up. Maybe add the option to 'save' a drowner by dragging them from the water into a boat or towards the shore?

    oh Sturgeon i've missed you and your subtle blend of great ideas shrouded in witty trollery

    Diapers - life savers/life takers

    yep, heaven forbid we actually have some fun with this new mechanic, jeez, it's not like this is a computer game or anything

    Hide tents offline

    ^^Off topic nonsense you quoted my post then made no attempt to counter any of it's arguments, in fact you make no reference to the entire thread at all. Your wall of text rant has added nothing to the debate, no one is visiting this forum and contributing to it and making suggestions who does not love dayz, no one here is looking for Hello Kitty whatever that may be, they are just discussing ideas which may or may not add something to the game. making tents vanish with the player who owns them when he logs seems logical to me, tell us why you disagree.

    Hide tents offline

    when a player logs he no longer exists as far as the game world is concerned, the game world keeps on rolling regardless. It makes sense that anything associated with that player should cease to exist too, keeping tents in game when a player has logged does not add to realism, it detracts from it, who owns all these tents? beings who travel between parallel universes? It also penalizes those who play less and those who play solo and IMO nobody in dayz should be penalized. Camp raiders have the tents of online players/clans to hunt down, this will encourage players to join busy servers. No one loses out. Beans for OP

    Diapers - life savers/life takers

    indeed, zeds may be able to smell a soiled nappy and right there is the balance, you get the advantages of being able to stay motionless (pun not intended) for longer while sniping and move more fluidly (pun not intended) through cities while looting but any passing zeds may sniff you out. Perhaps you could throw a soiled daiper to distract zeds in the way you can throw empty bottles etc, maybe the strong odour would give this method a longer lasting, further reaching effect?

    Diapers - life savers/life takers

    =) imagine the look on a guys face after a particularly risky looting session, after a couple of zed filled bandit avoiding hours in the city only to find a soiled diaper in his pack, in the fuckin' bin it goes.

    Diapers - life savers/life takers

    indeed, especially in hospitals, also baby wipes for improved hygiene.

    If you want free beans come here!!!!!!!!

    i spawned at kamenka and was heading towards the lighthouse to kill myself when i heard a chopper. I crouched in a bush and it landed about 50 metres away, the pilot got out and ran towards me firing his pistol, I was unarmed so I bolted to the chopper, he missed me completely and got raped by zeds aggro, for some reason the door gunner didn't open fire so I got in the heli and took off. The pilot managed to get in too so I had two passengers a fully green heli with about 90% fuel so I flew out towards the sea and just auto hovered about 100 m above the ocean and went out shopping with the missus. I got back about a couple of hours later, the chopper was still there with my two trusty gunners in situ. I opened vehicle chat and asked them if they were having fun, they both started swearing and cursing and basically going mental so I went downstairs to make myself some dinner, got back about half an hour later and yep, they were still there, I asked if they were still having fun and they exploded again so I decided to fly them back to the mainland where I flew about as fast and as close to the tree tops and buildings as i could until the fuel started to flash red at which point i headed out to sea again and hovered about 30 metres above the ocean and went afk again. When i got back I was dead so I guess the fuel ran out and we crashed. I like to think that one of them survived and had to wait to die of starvation or thirst but I'll never know. Best kamenka spawn ever and nice revenge for getting shot at as a new spawn. Troll was successful.
