Which friend was it, Tigger or Pooh?

Number 1 Dyslecxi observation: Players only see what they expect to see. Of course, having played ArmA in 1PP since the start of Operation Flashpoint, he's a bit useful at moving without being seen.

No crosshair at all.

Excellent idea! Where's the best downhill road to hold our first Chernarusian Shopping Trolley Grand Prix?

I'm watching you from the woods while touching myself.

No, just no. Go outside and give your head a wobble.

My SOPS for spotting other players might be a little different as I like to stick to the forests and smaller settlements, so I'm far more likely to spot another player before that see me. More than one player, I'm going to slip away quietly and watch from a good distance. If you're not armed and not moving towards me, you'll never know I'm there. If you're armed and not moving towards me, I'm watching you through my sights. If you move away, you get to live. If you're armed and not moving towards me, you're getting shot. Not armed and moving towards me, I'll move and watch you pass me by. If I can't move without being seen, I'll wait until you're within comms range and tell you to turn around and get going. Fail to comply, you get shot.

I STICK unless I get disconnected or log-in to find it's night time.

That's called making a Range Card... Draw a sketch of the view from your firing position showing approx ranges to key landmarks such as lone trees, buildings, road junctions etc. Top sniping tip for SA/ArmA (due to grass only rendering to middle distance): Choose your firing position so that you have a narrow "firing lane" to your intended target area, such as shooting through a building with missing/open windows or by being deep in the woods. This will mean your target will find it very difficult to spot you if your shot misses and they move position even by a few metres.

@OP: Does enabling ATOC cause the grass to look like many ##### for you?

I shoot anyone who talks like that on Direct Comms for crimes against the English language.

It's also overlooked by wooded hills on 2 sides making it ideal for snipers to overwatch and pick off looters. Lots of good loot, but you have to be very careful..

The shocking thing is that your laptop might actually play the game better than your desktop... Dual core CPUs just aren't up to the load that the RV engine will try to put on them.

Eh? It's what they're designed to do. Current generation of SSDs will outlive your HDD.

This. Damaged ammunition with deformed bullets or where the propellant has degraded due to continued exposure to the elements should cause a reduction in accuracy.

The Shocker.

Does your PC meet this? http://support.dayzmod.com/knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=15

Odd... What size PSU are you running?

Does it crash playing other games? Latest drivers?

No side chat.

If that was the same guy that said he was friendly and then killed me, I wouldn't trust him..

Does it work if you're not on a boat?

Frag grenade + empty tin can + string = grenade trap.

I had a fair idea from the Mod and ArmA 2, but I'm enjoying discovering the SA map anew.

Are you carrying a TARDIS on your back?
