Soundddd

Hey just a heads up im gonna join in tonight, mature (24) lone wolf looking to get a group in the same boat as me really, I work long days and only get a few hours a night but I plan on spending long hours on the weekend. And Im sick of being killed each time I let people drive by, wish them luck, and get shot in the back haha.

Ahh I should clarify the first half of the story was during the day haha but yeah it was a really lucky run from what I've seen and heard. :)

Hello, firstly this is my first night on my DayZ but I have played on my friends pc, not completley new but my first real experience (knowing that dying would lose my prpgress and not anothers) We began, I landed on the coast near the town of kamenka with an mp5, and some very generous starting gear. A gps issued by the commander and radio comms with my fellow squaddie led us to meeting in the town of Komoravo. The shock of the outbreak lay fresh so I felt delirious, my squad mate, pvt moose, had to go to the shop for some fags so we disconnected from reality but as I was about to leave, images of being transported far away (god damn hackers) filled my mind. I left this reality but came back round soon after and to my horror bodies litterd the floor. All my training preveiled and I took their supplys, their final sacrifice not being in vain. To my horror I turned to see a sniper also looting the bodies, his greed making him unaware of this vengeful soldier. I took his life (if he used a script I reasoned he might be the hacker as he was the only guy with good loot already) and his backpack (alice oh yeah) though in my haste I lost his ammo rendering his ammo useless. By now pvt moose had headed due north and we were to rendevous at pavlovo. The infected had gathered and xhased me across the hills and I have no shame admitting I felt fear. This was rapidly taken over by seething hatred when, upon checking my six, a man with a shotgun was amongst the army of zombies trailing me... He was close enough to call out, I could've helped but no, he stayed silent and I knew his assasin tendencys would emerge so I took anothers life. If only he said something I wouldve put my irons on the zombies but alas... Soon after pvt moose and I met, for hours we roamed to survive and managed to go through a few vehicles when disaster finally struck, we were all slipping from reality now (server reset) and me in my pickup had been splintered from moose and our new comrade dani, they in a 4x4, and the radio went crazy. Survivors! Alas they were vicious. I turned, racing to save my fallen but breathing comrade when I re connected to life, thinking I saw him i swerved to miss him but the crack of a rifle dismissed my presumptions. My tire was gone but I was alive so I ran to cover, I hid, curiously... I heard, the engine? No cars but my broken pickup. I took aim without thinking and confess not a thought crossed my mind but pulling the trigger, i aimed at the windscreen, 1, 2 and 3. There lay a dead body by my old car, i took his blood. Pvt moose then came to my rescue, sneaking by and taking the enemies vehicle to escape we rode away to saftey. My first run on dayz...

I would've joined in the conversation untill you pigeonholed everyone who has played dayz, for the record I play neither bf3 or CoD

How long are your sessions on dayz usually? I don't have it yet and already clocked in 8 hours straight according to skype. My ally must have done about 12 as he was playing for five hours before I connected.

Broon its used to put up sandbags, OP forgot the otger two roles Faker - Given a rare gun without ammo and a large backpack but carrys nothing, the whole point is to run ahead of the group (within range) to look like a high value lone wolf, yes uts suicidal but it lures out the enemy whilst keeping the squads gear safe. Watcher - Heavily armed (enough gear to stay safe alone) that constantly flanks the entire group,two purposes really the first is to protect them from 'behind' and the second is to be a late entry into firefights.... I have yet to actually try this theory out however.

This was stupidity on my part. After an 8 hour run on my second round of the game, me and my friend playing a 300+ vehicle server, we were about to log when low and behold we found two choppers in the woods. It was about 7 in the morning and we were both very tired, he went round one side of the choppers and I the other. He jumped in the chopper on the gun (which was facing the side I was scouting) and I was suddenly faced with a survivor looking at me with a big gun, I unloaded my pistol into this sudden appereance successfully making my first kill... quickly followed up by my friend going into a fit of rage over TS. What didnt help is that there was only one other survivor on at the time.

I know im not bringing alot to this but I agree a musket would be a great weapon in my humble opinion.

Ha..... Ha..... Ha..... So you have your poison, well done, whilst you stalk the night hunting your prey lining up for this perfect movie moment you dremt of your entire life, as you said, somebody just mows you down with something a but more automatic. I don't care for humanity, this suggestion is one of two things as far as I can tell. A) someone cant handle respawning upon death so wants to have to be paralysed or B) Someone wants to rob people without losing humanity. There is the third option though, they want to hunt the shikahkah and for added realism they need the chance of being knocked out and waking up on a raft going down river towards a waterfall, in which case where is the monkey as a pet suggestion and brylcream so you can have funky hair doo's suggestion??

If you can get the garb ash ketchum wears I'll be happy

So you want to be a bandit without losing humanity...?

Im not a great fan of these suggestions my reasoning follows... 1. Chainsaw. Maybe but it should, by all rights, be far too loud and cumbersome. 2. Power tools like nailguns, buzzsaw, sander. Some potential, if electrical outputs are in the game I would like to see quick drain and long charge time, though without electricity then I feel they would be quickly rendered obsolete. Maybe as a class of 'desperate times' weaponry. 3. Machete. I rather like this idea but it would have to be almost another axe only with a different skin, a mixture of axe and hunting knife (instead of cutting trees its a melee that guts animals) 4. Cleaver... Calm down Dr. Mundo. Seems like another fun for five minutes weapon. 5. Katana blade. As has been said, I couldnt seeing it being applicable at all. Its eastern europe not east asia. 6. Chain. What for? Making sure nobody steals your pedal bike? Unless you can use the chain on your fists and punch people in which case sorry for the misunderstanding. 7. Spear (throwable) or metal rod. A spear is not a close range weapon by any means. 8. Baseball bat (combined with nails for extra damage). And maybe attatching m16's to a wheelchair? I apologise for the criticisms, but again this should only be another axe in my opinion and to that I say, theres already an axe. 9. Molotov cocktail. I like it but if it was in the game I doubt I would ever use them, they would have to attract alot of attention. 10. Flamethrower ... Just no. I shall elaborate, although it has been said, the fire should not kill zombies for several minutes in which case the flamethrower would be useless as a means of defense. Just putting my two cents in.

I personally dont like the idea of a fishing rod, unless there is a chance you have to wait a very long time for fish, you have a chance of losing bait and you can catch unedible fish, making it more of a gamble than an easy alternative to scouting for beans. As this is the suggestions forum I would like to see being able to setup a rod and leaving it for hours before you can harvest it making it a lot more risky and giving the potential for theifs to steal your fish.

Hello, here is my first post, I have tried looking for other pages by searching clothes on the forums and it has led me here so if i missed a more popular thread apologies. Anyway down to buisness, I think a really good idea for clothing would be 'tags', you find a bit of coloured cloth which is probably a common spawn and wearing them would simply put an arm band on, purely for decoration, so clan members or groups can all find tags and put them on. Also I feel it would go with the concept of dayz, you can have seperate colours so your group knows whos the pointman or uniform colours to easily identify each other, also if you want to infiltrate another group you can quickly put their colours on for an extra heartbeats deception time.
