For the love of God, no! The SA is going to be Zombiefield 3 at this rate.

I'm against this as it promotes the team deathmatch style of play and KOS mentality.

No.

So rocket, a western city eh?

And you could model the zombies by filming the locals for 15 minutes after the pubs chuck out. -
Disable Anti-Aliasing and set Anisotropic Filtering to Low or Medium.

[MOD] Weapons Poll - Overpowered vs Underpowered - Tell me if you think a weapon should be buffed or nerfed
terminal_boy replied to Grimzentide's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Shotguns are somewhat messed up with some slugs having a range of 250 metres (which is at least 100 metres optimistic, even with a red-dot sight), but half the damage of a 7.62 NATO rifle. Going on muzzle energy alone, both a 12g slug and a standard 7.62x51 NATO FMJ round generate around 3,500 Joules; so the damage and terminal effects should be at least equal on paper. The Winchester 1866 should cause the same damage as the M1911/Revolver, but out to the current 150 metres range it already has. Effective ranges of pistols in DayZ are 7 sorts of messed up, by the way, with most having ranges of 75 metres (50 metres too far). -
Shooting out of a vehicle window or from the back of open vehicles such as pick-up trucks or Urals should be allowed, but with a huge accuracy penalty due to vehicles bouncing all over the place at speed. This is why military vehicles have belt-fed weapons fitted.

Ever seen one of these campsites in Chernarus?
terminal_boy replied to tatortodd22's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yes, nobody ever hides out the West of Zelengorsk, so there's no point anyone ever searching this area for survivors or their camps. I'm glad we cleared this up. -
Sorry about that.. There should be uber rare in DayZ - only 1 active per server as only.

Thank you all! I thought I was having Ketamine flashbacks from the 1990s! It's definitely a horse snorting and I only hear it I the woods. Very different from the startled pigeon/dove/teal taking off sound heard if you enter the forest running. Male deer make a very similar snorting noise, but only when in rut.

Disadvantages To Carrying/Using AS50/M107
terminal_boy replied to Dark Terror's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
A weight-based endurance system make more sense. Travel light? You can run further before getting out of breath and burn less calories, so need to eat less frequently. Pack mule? Limits your mobility and burns more calories. -
Fill Wasteland with all the super weapons that the BF3/CoD you want, but these should be

Bruising from repetitive gun fire.
terminal_boy replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
All those female pistol, rifle and shotgun shooters I've stood next over the years must be the odd ones out then. -
Group Spawning and Buildable Respawn Bunkers!
terminal_boy replied to Cobs's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
No. DayZ isn't BF2 + Project Reality. -
Spawn in random buildings/houses around the map
terminal_boy replied to Trunk Yeti's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Not for me as I had this experience at least once a week during the mid 1990s.. -
Your Shoot On Sight Threshold?
terminal_boy replied to Taggert1313's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If you haven't seen me and aren't hunting fresh spawns, I'll let you pass on by. I reserve the right to change my mind the moment I think you're hunting me or are a forward scout for a squad. If you've seen me and have a long gun, you're getting shot. If you've seen me and approach me with a pistol or hatchet equipped, you get shot if you don't heed my warning over Direct Voice. If you've seen me and approach me unarmed and don't respond to Direct Voice, you get shot if you try to follow me when I back off. -
She sounds about 12. Children shouldn't be seen or heard.

You too? We should form a club and get t-shirts made up.

Dual wielding, smoke grenades, and flashbangs
terminal_boy replied to whatsmynameagain's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Dual wielding? Watched "Equilibrium" one time too many have we? -
As long as your character suffers a weight/mobility penalty proportionate to the armour worn, that's fine by me. And you'll not be running far in an NBC suit and respirator. Your armour stopping a bullet shouldn't result in your character being knocked unconscious. Knocked over/down yes, but not knocked out. Current issue ballistic helmets are only rated to stop direct hits from 9mm pistol rounds.

Running and Switching Guns...
terminal_boy replied to Kyrios (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My question was for MacarbreLlama99. On the subject of transistions, any sort of makeshift sling would allow you to simply let go of your primary and draw your secondary. Drawing from a thigh holster while moving isn't easy though. Possibly why experienced gunfighters mount their secondaries on battle belts or on the front of their plate carriers now that modern holsters allow it. -
Running and Switching Guns...
terminal_boy replied to Kyrios (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Can you remove one rifle from a rucksack and swap it with the one you're holding at a dead run? -
I wants me some honey badger in DayZ. A town full of zombies? Bandits with AS50s? Helicopters? Skiddies? Hackers? Spunktrumpet admins on private hives? Doesn't matter because honey badger doesn't give a f***.

DayZ commander being a pain in the arse.
terminal_boy replied to BannedOpinion's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Do you have ARMA 2 running via Steam? Have you checked the Settings tab in Day Z Commander to check that it s pointing at the correct locations for your ARMA 2 files? -
I think the Chernarus Department of Public Safety needs to launch an in-depth investigation into the growing concern that having an AS50 and being a combat logging spunktrumpet are somehow related.
