Juuuuust checking.

PapaSmurf from Bladeforums?

Private hives also tend to have less hackers.

Sounds like you were banned from a private hive; you need to include the server name.

Not in my experience, wind estimation is done by a coloured arrow. However, it doesn't give exact values, for that you need the Kestrel 4500 wind meter.

ATVs... hate them. Train tracks, tree roots, bridges... the things are a death trap. ArmA 2 has a lot of physics problems... in other game modes I've lost TANKS because I've hit tiny rocks which has sent me flying in loops through the air...

I'd love to see an R600 Coolpower with a bambicatcher on the front... B)

IMO it's probably best if there aren't a myriad of different ammo types, because you'd start getting unrealistic.

The SUV is the best car, GPS, quiet, fastest on and offroad too, I think. Plus it looks cool. You probably jacked some hacker's ride though. :P

This, exactly. It's not just another cheap kill.

I've had this too... I'm fairly sure it has occurred once or twice when I've played singleplayer as well, so I'm not sure what causes it. It has never lasted long though.

To get a good K/D! Hehehehehehehe

I don't think helicopters with rocket pods belong in DayZ, nor fighter jets. Searchlight isn't a bad idea though.

In ACE you hold Shift+K and an arrow pops up telling you the approximate direction and strength of the wind, then you have to press Shift+V to get the range table, find the correct range and plug in the values (estimating if the target is in between the listed ranges), press Shift+Space to deploy your bipod, then hold your breath and fire... and you'll have a large chance of missing with the first round if it's at long range. Would make sniping a lot harder... I'm pretty sure the ACE people want nothing to do with DayZ, though.

It really doesn't matter... where's the Jean-Luc Picard smiley...

I probably slightly prefer the M4, generally, if you can see it, you can hit it, and full auto is actually good for hatchet-range encounters, like RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOU. What matters more to me is if it has a red dot or not. I find the red dot a lot better for gunfights even if you lose a bit of precision because the target is a lot easier to see. Bohemia made most of the red dots way too large.

In the first PMC mission there's a sequence where crows hover over a dead body.

Seriously, play ArmA 2 campaigns and Wasteland, you'll get a lot more opportunities for fighting and will get a lot better at it as a result.

Hmmm, clothing changes à la "I Wanna Be The Guy"? That could work.

I have to say that ArmA's mouse sensitivity has some issues... turn up the sensitivity and turn down smoothing and it's more responsive, but then it gets harder to aim at long range. And some mouses seem to work a lot better than others.

Well I was new to it and it seemed fine for me. In my opinion, DayZ should have a similar level of difficulty to Ninja Gaiden Black on Master Ninja difficulty... otherwise it's getting into COD territory.

Well whether or not I am opposed depends on what you mean by "easier settings"... and private hives having access to easier settings seems to tend towards most all private hives having those settings on, which could be a problem if the public hive "goes down". Look at the public hive now, a shadow of its former self.

Um... opposed to what?

Because I shall never have numbers in my name... plus "Gews" was how a couple people/raggedy-things decided to spell "Goose".
