    Handcars

    One person can do that solo. The one I work with can fit 6 adults (or 20 Filipino workers, as was the custom in Hawaii in the old days)

    do loots spawn at gas stations?

    Found a box of ammo in one once. I wouldn't trust DayZDB atm since they list all buildings and not whats really giving off loot.

    Ive been banned! (dont know where to post)

    You cheat on facebook games? Seriously? That coupled with Orlok's findings I'd say you're not gonna get any help from Battle Eye or VAC, who handles the bans (DayZ and Steam respectively). $30 is rather cheep for a life lesson if you're not a script kiddie, Don't let others screw around on your computer. This can range from your annoying sibling writing "I'm Gay" on your Facebook Account to a douche bag cousin buying shit with your funds. I'm still trying to wrap my head around cheating on a facebook game...
  4. SWEET JEBUS! The Thing from The Thing just learned how to drive! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES AND TEST YOUR BLOOD!
  5. Rocket would like 1000 players per server? Well yeah, that's a want. I would like a serious relationship with Aria Giovanni, that's not gonna happen, though there's probably a better chance that the servers will someday be able to handle 1000 players. Honestly I don't think we'll have more than 150 per server, unless they made each server a mega server that contained several maps with travel to and from each (IE Going from Chenarus to Takistan, or the 'Western Map' Rocket wants to do later on), Private hives will come eventually, and you can't just throw money at a problem and it'll be solved.
  6. That's a poor use of the fresh oranges in the zombie apocalypse, but a good use of rotten oranges to make vodka! You probably won't be driving too well drunk either.

    Suggestion from a survivor!

    Bandits kill to survive? Since when? Every bandit I've seen has had ammo, food, and water coming out of their ears. There's no real way to fix banditry or people who kill 'for teh lulz', other than turning PVP off entirely (as in players cannot harm/kill another player, no mater how many times they shoot or stab them in the head).
  8. Yes, I have to agree, there should be a lot of cars, but a rarity of parts, so while there might be say 200 cars total, realistically there would only be around 10 functional ones at any given time (possibly more with hard work and LOTS of scavenging). I'm not saying there should be 50 Camo UAZs or Armored SUVs per server, I'm talking that the majority of cars should be civilian (Skodas and the like) and you'd most likely get one working car by salvaging parts form many other cars (of the same model).

    Book suggestions/wishlist:

    The Zombie Survival Guide! Personally: A Military History of Sovereign Hawai'i. Doubt it but hey I can dream about the day I go bandit and handcuff people and force them to listen to me read them the details of the (unfortunately) failed counterrevolution and how it could have worked.

    should i log in?

    If characters are gonna wipe it won't mater how long you wait, it'll wipe. Rules 1-6 of DayZ, never get attached to your gear.

    The talking zombie, a real Dayz story

    THANK YOU! Starting to wounder how shitty the schools people went to must have been if they keep calling it a school.
  12. IkaikaKekai

    Anyone else paranoid?

    Yes. I too have problems, back in the mod I would often freak out when I heard a car/plane/heli pass overhead, sometimes my CPU fan would rev up and I'd wonder if there was a Heli nearby on to me.
  13. IkaikaKekai

    Couple things need to be addressed

    Really? I thought this was a completed game? /sarcasm. They will be addressed in time, zombies are being worked on, some of the melee impact sounds have already been replaced (not all) and I'm not sure what you mean about the confusion of weapon attachments.
  14. IkaikaKekai

    Why aren't there 'fat' characters in DayZ?

    I believe it was said that they can't just 'make' fat people (zombies or otherwise), they would look awkward as hell, they'ed need to create and mocap (which I have volunteered for with no response) a new skeleton for fat people.
  15. IkaikaKekai

    Railroad track.

    It doesn't go full circle. Also, Harriet Tubman?
  16. IkaikaKekai

    Why did he just sit down?

    He probably tried to combat log, I believe when you log out you sit down.

    Vehicles: Common bicycles / Capture able Trains

    The Locomotives in Chenarus are neither steam nor electric, they are Diesel powered. While refiling one of them would still be a challenge with a friggen 20L jerry can, realistically there SHOULD be at least one refueling/sanding station where if power were restored (IE hooking up a car battery or generator to the pump) (or the possibility of hand powered pumps, which considering it's Chenarus is a good possibility) I'll admit it's unlikely but I would like to see locos as well in DayZ (providing they keep to the level of realism I expect from them, since they do have a lot of minor details most game/map makers don't know about when they add trains to a game...I cringe when I go in the dock areas of San Andreas and see European Wagons mixed with North American Rolling Stock, not to mention what seams to be active lines with no way to access them from the main line...I digress or this is gonna turn into a two page post...)

    <<<< Zombie Improvements. >>>>

    These are not undead zombies, they are living infected, so headshots only and infecting players won't fly. Everything else (except maybe the 'grapple' with a zombie to escape) is a good idea. I would also say one or the other with zombies being faster and hit harder. (They either run faster or hit harder, and make a mix so say if you're trying to fight off the faster one the stronger one might catch up)

    Loot place

    Sorry, I ment not every building has it's loot turned on to begin with, and the ones that did have it turned on then off we're probably bugs if not done on purpose (first day nearly every shed had loot in it, the next patch only the large sheds had loot, I assume they were turned off due to lagging issues)
  20. Not saying it's not technically possible. Rocket doesn't want it. He doesn't want NPCs crashing a Heli or flying a cargo plane over head and dropping supplies. Everyone who isn't immune (meaning isn't a player) Is either dead or infected. And not 'suddenly' infected either. The things themselves might be in, but there won't be events where the plane flys overhead and drops cargo or the helicopter crashes while you're looking, the plane would have already dropped its cargo weeks/months ago, or crashed into the side of a mountain, the heli would have already crashed weeks ago.

    Stupid things you've done

    Instead of just keep going south after I found a magnum and a M4, I decided to look at one of the new 'jails' I saw back north in the distance (was the military base near Kabanino) as I was heading south after successfully looting NWAF and hearing other gunshots (partly by using light discipline and sneaking around). I find nothing of value, decide to check out the rest of the base walk out and start walking towards another building when someone who probably saw my flashlight when I was inside opened up with his M4, making me break my legs and nearly die, as I'm panicking to draw my revolver (the M4 I had didn't have a mag) I'm fumbling with my hotkeys and lagging slightly, he opens up again before I can draw the gun and attempt to avenge myself.

    Loot place

    DayZ DB takes info from the data itself, loot 'should' spawn there but the spawns have been turned off (for now) since for the moment the servers cannot handle the amount of loot there should be. It might be as Soul said where it's bugged and everyone assumes it's not a bug so it doesn't get reported.
  23. No matter how much we want to see them fall out of the sky, they wont. There's another post where I like what Steak said, 1-4 crashsites per restart in random locations so you aren't looking for a set number of helis (if you're looking). In fact there should be a chance that none spawn at all. I'm leaning more towards wrecked convoys/cargo trucks along the roads (same as a heli crash, but random spots on/near the roads).

    DayZ Gun Review- Blaser B95

    Yeah, was kinda hoping it'd be a shotgun and rifle than just a double barrel.
