I find them quite often, just check a bush a couple of times before moving on. You'll get there.

Purple Taloon, duh.

I know if they haven't added it yet, they plan to.

This game is, keep in mind, a game. People would gladly trade realism for a more enjoyable experience. Not everything has to be 100% Authentic, otherwise the gameplay would prove to be nearly impossible, and a lot of game mechanics would have to be changed. Just keep in mind it's a game, not the actual Apocalypse. :)

I honestly hate this idea. Any idea that players should go "here for this" in my opinion is outright horrible. Things should be random, just for the authenticity. Zombie numbers are going to increase anyways, and if you want a challenge, shoot off your gun in the middle of Electro in a completely full server. Just gonna say it again, loot should be random, and this is "our story", with no certainties.

I'm not sure if this is only me or not, but I cannot lay down/go prone. I've checked the controls, reset everything back to default, set the prone to a custom key, nothing is working. It's not just in one place or anything either, no matter where I'm at, I cannot lay down. I've discussed this with a couple friends, not one is having this issue. I've searched (Quickly) to see if anyone else had this problem, but not one page (That I found, but I was rushing a bit) on this. Help?

Alright, I'll see if that's the problem. Thx :)

Kaboki, incase you didn't know, their was a disclaimer warding off, well, people like yourself. If you can't handle buggy zombies (Which honestly isn't an issue, like at all) then you shouldn't be here. It was stated multiple times NOT to buy this game unless you're here to contribute to the production of the game, and quite honestly, you're not, you even said you weren't. On the other hand, we all know the game has it's flaws, but give it some time, wait for 2015 to show up, and then try the game. If it ain't still fix by then, go try out H1Z1, it's not that big a deal, it's one less kid whining that the rest of us have to listen to. Enjoy the apocalypse Kaboki, or in your case, don't ;)

This isn't intentional, that just haven't added the damaged/ruined variants yet.

To those who say "Clothes dont mean anything", I would have to argue. Yes, those who just KoS to KoS will still continue shooting at you regardless, but "normal survivors" act upon fear. If you have things that look more threatening, they won't come to you with open arms, if they have a chance to kill you, you can bet they will, however, if you look more like them, or "friendlier" in any way, they might just either avoid you, or try to interact with you. We as the human race think in certain ways, and in situations like this, Fear conquers all other emotions/thoughts.

I never even thought of that, but now that I think about it, that does make sense. The mod always did have that excitement when I found new cool stuff, but I keep track way too much on here, so not many surprises... I may just do the same...

Did you check the In-game audio options?

My bad GamingBeatzz xD I was half distracted, and rushing to reply to this xD I hope this reply is satisfactory for you cx

So I'm making this forum for two reasons; 1. To tell y'all my favorite way(s) of being a bandit. 2. To see how other players like going about their bandit ways. Also, please note: I am not always a bandit, I mix it up between characters, just to keep the game fresh, so please, no hate comments, I'd be grateful :) Alrighty, so, I have a couple few ways of being a bandit, and non involve KoS, that's just not fun to me (But honestly, I'm fine with KoS, it adds more of a thrill to the game). My favorite method is just being discreet about it. I'll act friendly, and say I give you some food, right? Well turns out, that can of beans you just ate wasn't completely soaked in Disinfectant Spray, so now your vision is going to get screwed, and you'll slowly die, unless you treat yourself, and by that time, I'll be long gone, and you probably won't even know I did it, so cheers lads, you're all going to die from a donation of beans. My other favorite way of being the best bandit I can be is sort of along the lines of a "Highwayman". I'll have my band of 3,4 fellow bandits with me hiding behind some of the ruined cars, bushes, logs, whatever we can hide behind. When you come in between us all, we'll jump out with our guns, yell at your face, handcuff you if you're smart enough to listen (and shoot you if you try anything rash), then we take what we want, poison you with straight up disinfectant spray, and vwah-lah! We got what we want, you get to live a bit longer, and the game continues on! No harm done (To us that is)! Fun right? Now that I've got my ways out there, how does everyone else act as a bandit, do you just rob, poison, do you just kill the survivors, explain to me and your fellow Apocalypse survivors!

This sir, this is great. You've obviously made a new friend, and you're just playing a "Friendly" game. Very well done, keep up the grand work. So you had no ammo in your shotgun until you took it from him? Well done, but bluffs can be tricky. Never pull one with an M4 that doesn't have a magazine, that's too obvious xD

Sounds good. Dont want to ruin you're new gear xD

This, this is just beautiful. Enlighten you're pupils my friend. I've done very very similar, but it was more on accident. Basically their were two guys, I killed one, took pretty much all his items, his friend came up to me thinking it was his friend, and well, I killed him too. It's fairly simple I guess. Works just as well, as long as you have fun. The hunt is certainly fun, the little survivors out there are just our play things, correct?

As this guy said, I think that's about the only purpose for an empty can, which is also a great purpose. They did something similar in some of the DayZ Mod Servers, but the can would sometimes automatically drop on the ground, but you could pick it back up if you feel like using it afterwards. Me and my friends make a joke about the soda's, since they cover a bit of hunger, we claim that we eat the cans for food :P

I've done similar. My plan basically goes this: 1. Fresh Spawns : They get handed a legit can of food, maybe a Pipsi or a Nota Cola ( Spites are MINE :P ), and they go on their way, unless of course, they try something stupid 2. Semi-Geared : They get robbed, pretty simple, I just take and pick what I want if they comply, if they don't, I break their legs, and move on. Death would be a mercy. 3. Fully-Equipped : I'm taking everything you have, whether I need it or not, and dumping whatever I dont actually want in the woods somewhere just so you don't get to have it. 4. PayDay Mask Wearers : Now these guys get special treatment. First I blast music in my mic, run at them with my group, all screaming like psychos, then we attempt to break their legs, or kill them. Simple. No loot needed. 5. UN Beret Wearers : That's the generic hero hat, so you get to go without losing anything, without any harm, basically no negative impact, other than me complimenting your hat, and that's a pretty bad curse :P

Actually, yeah, their is. You just need to be lucky and find me :3 Of course, it has to be the right character, otherwise I might end up giving you a actual good can of food. ;)

Well Borom, I first did the poisoned food tactic on one of my friend's friends, because the guy was very, well, annoying, and a risk to my own survival, and obviously I come before others. So, after being all friendly with the guy, he asked if I had food to spare, and I gave him my poisoned Spaghetti, later on down the road, he started complaining how his vision was going to shit. He started vomiting, and so on. Sadly, before the whole process went through and he went to his slow demise, he got shot to death when we were going through a city in the NE corner of Chernarus (Not sure which city). But either way, I'm fairly certain it was the food I gave him, however, it may have been something else, but that's highly unlikely, after all, digesting disinfectant spray has a negative on our bodies :P

Also, Irish, banditry is in fact wrong, I mean, we murder for fun and for supplies we could easily access without bloodshed. But that's also the fun of it, knowing it's wrong just gives certain people satisfaction. But without bandits, where would DayZ be? :)

Sounds like pretty intense banditry. Well, it has it's ups and downs, one of the downs being other bandits get jealous of our amazing work and seek out vengeance ;) This is obviously what happened in your case.

Logging into a game, falling through the floor (I was about 3,4 stories up in one of the Hotel/Apartment buildings in Cherno), getting flung, and well, the rest is obvious.

I can't wait for this, I just want to be able to run into a house, slam the doors shut, and have a horde waiting outside to slaughter me :P Jk, but this sounds promising.
