    Banned while on hiatus

    Don't think it maters if you made the account today or months ago. Your 'reason' for signing up on that hack site will not garner you any support here. Buy the game through official channels, less likely you have your credit card stolen along with your CD key. And more than likely any key you buy from there will be banned sooner or later.

    play music in background?

    YOu can always run your media player of choice in the background. For a while I had itunes going with a playlist I had for DayZ (stopped when I started playing on BB and needed to keep TS up)

    How about posting the full server name and IP, as well as some other info (Mod, location, map, rules, ect.)

    DayZ Standalone Discussion

    I'll be fine with a reddot, bayonet, and flashlight (and possibly suppressors).

    Your funniest moment in DayZ

    This had me nervously laughing my ass off, and then later crying. Playing on Balota Buddies one day I found an SUV out in the woods. It had gear in it and was near my camp so I waited a couple of days, thing was still there so I took it, leaving a UAZ (I think) in it's place (leaving the gear that was in the SUV in the UAZ). I move camp to near Zelenogorsk and log out for the day. Log in, grab my crossbow and leave my CZ550 in the tents and head down to town in the SUV. I park at the SUV in the walled off area near the store and head in. I start to notice there's dead zombies around and gear has already spawned in, "oh fuuu-" I hear a car door open and close and run out and to my SUV, yep, dude in the driver's seat, swap to my 1911 and aim at the window, using direct voice I say, "Get out of my Car, NOW." I hear other gunshots and other player noises, He obviously didn't hear me so I ran back into the store. My heart is racing at 90 miles an hour and I'm 'hiding' in the corner of the backroom of the store. One of the players come running in with a M240/M249 and runs past me with his back to me. I start hearing more gunshots and the car moving, as well as the horn honking and car doors opening. I run out, see the SUV is still there and they're trying to group up, running to the SUV I jump in the back seat. The rest got in and they took off, with me. I wait till the next town before finally typing up in vehicle chat, "Hey uh, this is the guy who's SUV you just stole, if you can let me out up ahead I'll be on my way..." "Oh shit dude jump down to our TS channel." Turned out they were friendly and told me i could have the SUV back afterwards, so I hung with them a bit. Now the sad part, they take me to one of their camps, blood up, find like 3 heli crashes within a mile of each other and loot em. Then one of the guys ran into another group of survivors, "Hey I think it's that guy we stopped earlier gonna try and WTF IM DEAD! They're Hostile..." After a short bit of trying to take each other, we die one by one, just me and one guy from my team and one of them left. Guy had his back to me so I ran up with a Bizon and unloaded the clip into his back, before moving up to his head and killed him. "Is that all of them dude?" "Yeah I think so-" BLAM Rifle goes off in the distance. I die, then my last partner. Over Side I see, "LOL u gaies suck, takin ur SUV' We got played by a bandit sniper (both groups were friendlies, he killed our guy first and watched us kill each other, occasionally taking pot shots at us during the fire fight.

    are satchel charges legit?

    I'm pretty sure satchel charges are legit, never came across one (that wasn't already set) before myself. This camp sounds rather dodgy though, all that gear on top of 20 satchel charges? Either a hacker's camp, someone exploiting a dupe glitch, or a really determined loot monkey, the first two seaming more likely.

    Add the HMMWV Ambulance please :)

    There's been MI17s for a couple of patches now, think they added them in around the same time as Little Birds (which you also probably have a gripe against). Chenarus Defense Forces. Pretty sure this is going to be addressed in Standalone. There will be american guns because in Arma 2's mission, the US was in Chenarus as a NATO force, the US always leaves/sells equipment when it leaves a country, not to mention outright theft, the black market, and battlefield looting by ambitious civilians (or even CDF members collecting US guns for themselves). I would agree that in the mod mostly US/NATO guns are added in because of popularity, and that the DMR/M24 should be switched with the SVD (chance to find DMR/24 at Heli Crashes only, chance to find SVDs in Military spawns). We will have western guns in SA, lets just hope that the majority of guns are post soviet or civilian weapons (I like what I've seen so far in that regard)

  9. Wasn't it confirmed there wouldn't be a 'kill feed' in SA?

    Moon Phases

    They did at one point, but due to bitching it's been changed to full moon nights in an effort to bring night cycles back to servers instead of 24/7 day.
  11. IkaikaKekai

    Fire Extinguisher

    Think it should be added in at some point. It would be pretty hard to extinguish a fire in a helicopter right now, but do sort of like the idea. Use would be as a melee weapon as well (big blunt steel object). And of course spraying the foam, could lower body temperature as well as create a smoke screen (if temporary). Could probably be crafted into some sort of IED or other object.

  13. You miss the point. It's not a simple mater of having a doctor and lawyer present after signing some waivers, it's simply illegal. If there's nothing wrong with you they aren't supposed/allowed to prescribe medication. That's how drug addictions start. Yes, it does happen, but usually when they're found out they're arrested. Why do you think there's a locked door and several walls between you and most of the pharmacy?
  14. IkaikaKekai

    Create the official dayZ mod server

    I think it'd just be a target for Trolls and crybabies and scriptkiddies. People spamming 'ROCKET Y U NO RELEASE GAME' over side (both voice and text) every 10 seconds. It would be horrible.
  15. IkaikaKekai

    Ammo reloading / Weapon jams etc

    Bladed and sharp implements of course, in my case a Koa wood spear, since all my 'firearms' currently IRL are airsoft or Nerf. Working on getting a couple of guns but that's gonna be a bit (need to save up for the guns we want, need to take a gun safety course and get proper licensing from HPD, ect ect.)
  16. IkaikaKekai

    booby trap?

    What server? We need more info.
  17. I highly doubt that a doctor would allow that. "Hey Doc, can you come over and numb us up some actors, who have nothing wrong with them, with some Morphine so we can get some slightly more realistic zombie animations?" The doctors that would agree to that are probably shady as fuck. Most/all numbing drugs are controlled substances, meaning a doctor has to account for them, or its an illegal activity. You think the network bubble is delaying a release? Try a drug charge laid against Rocket or any of the other team members.
  18. IkaikaKekai

    economy

    I'd prefer if (as said above by some others) Rocket gives us the tools to do so. Rather than add in an auction house or a bounty system, add in a message post in towns where players can post a message saying, "Camouflaged Ural with reinforced windows and mounted PKM, starting bid 1,000 rounds of 7.62 Ammo. Bidding starts at Noon local time on frequency 89.910." or "Wanted Dead: Bandit Stinky Bob, 10 MREs and 300 rounds of 5.56 upon proof of death. Radio Frequency 721.054."

    Ammo reloading / Weapon jams etc

    As long as you can understand 'pointy end goes into the other man' you'll be fine.
  20. IkaikaKekai

    Why remove Direct Chat?

    I would say find another server. Side's one thing but direct? Hope these aren't 'official' servers.
  21. IkaikaKekai

    Ammo reloading / Weapon jams etc

    Most people don't know that. I can see a noob trying this IRL even with this simple instruction: *puts in new primer in shell backwards, fills with (way too much) gunpowder, uses roofing hammer to pound bullet into shell, small explosion, lots of swearing and cries of 'get the bandaids!'*
  22. IkaikaKekai

    Add the HMMWV Ambulance please :)

    Vehicles wont be in the standalone for a while (from what I hear there's some internal debate as to have them in at alpha release 'as is' (meaning buggy as hell) or wait till they have the new 'system' in then readd vehicles) Also, they have to pretty much start over from scratch with everything, not just import the 'base model' in. For Mod, Id say yes. Standalone? Maybe if it had either UN, NATO, CDF, or some Civilian markings I'd believe it being there (Since the US Army sells off some of its older equipment rather than pay to ship it back quite often). I would rather see a purpose built or civilian conversion ambulance than just a Copy Paste military model.
  23. IkaikaKekai

    Gear weight affects appearence.

    Gun store. They're probably ancient now, but S&W and many other western countries did sell a lot of their products to Russian Europe. As late as 1947 when Stalin stopped being our 'friend' we were selling things to them (FUNFACT! The EF-4 and EP-4 'Little Joe' Electric Locomotives were originally built to be used on USSR railways, when Stalin started acting 'like a dick' to the US the export sales were canceled before they were shipped, the locos were reworked to operate on US lines ((changed the electrical system and gauge)) and bought by Milwaukee Road to operate on their electrified lines). S&W used to sell service revolvers to the Tsar's secret police (And I'm sure they made their way into the hands of a few revolutionaries) and later to the new Soviet Union (pre WW2 and even during WW2 when the ships could get in). Revolvers are not a uniquely 'Murican thing either. Also, I think he was fantasizing a bit. Much as I'd love to walk down the streets of Cherno in a suit and fedora, carrying a Tommy Gun with drum clips.
  24. IkaikaKekai

    Water sources?

    Wrong, there are oil barrels and tire piles that can be set on fire without matches, I don't know all of them but I know the following. Barrels Cherno Store, outside the front entrance near some sandbags. Cherno Medical Tents, in the same yard as Triage center, southern side (across the street form the hospital). Cherno Docks Church, right outside the door. Cherno International Hotel, a few scattered about on the streets Berezino South Store, right outside the front door. Berezino Military tents, couple scattered about on the football/socer field. Tires Only one I know of is in the Balota Medical Tents area.
  25. I prefer to use both actually, most of the time I'm in third person, when I'm shooting or driving I prefer first (I just seam to do better in first for both). I'll probably be playing a lot more in first when SA comes out (I'm a loot monkey)
