You ask them what server they're on and join it when they tell you.

So there are 144,000 people complaining on the forums? That would be impressive.

Personally I prefer the G17 for the flashlight + doesn't even alert zeds 10 meters away when you shoot. It has good accuracy unlike the M9, and isn't terrible to try to aim with like the PDW. It also helps that I tend to stay around military spawns making M1911 ammo hard to find. If I was hanging mostly around civilian spawns I'd keep the M1911.

Ghillie suit makes your pack unlootable.
Castle (DayZ) replied to SensenmanN (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
I was able to access and take the pack of someone with a ghillie suit, however it was multiple days after this thread was posted. You also can't put packs on dead players in general. If you take their pack it puts yours on the ground next to them. It is entirely possible this guy just did not have a pack. -
I checked the player list, but no one from [9k] was on at the time. These had been going around for at least 20 minutes before killing me here, with everyone talking about them in side chat.

Ghillie suits are rare. I haven't ever found one myself, but my friend has found two in 1.7.0.
-
Since 1.7 technically won't be full release and standard until the Arma 2 1.61 patch is out it's possible we have to wait until then.

If You Could Add 1 Weapon to DayZ...

Or maybe the SG552. Or multiple variants. I mean we have M16+M4, AKM+AK-74+AK-74U -
---Immediate Attention Requested-----

If this is in Dallas 42, it could be leftover from earlier hackers I've already reported. I saw someone talking about it when I went back there to check on my camp. -
If You Could Add 1 Weapon to DayZ...

SIG551. Rare spawn in all military locations. Uses 30 round 5.56x45 ammo in the Gw Pat 90 box cartridge. -
-
I can't find the links now - since the hackers destroyed a couple weeks worth of the forum history (fuckers) - but I could swear it had gone as high as 80m. (Although, yours could be radius whereas mine could be circumference.) I have heard it's up to 80 meters for voice, but was only 20 meters for text.

Chose female but my character is male?
Castle (DayZ) replied to Shenrai's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's a bug. Even if you get to choose a death or a few server changes will set you as male forever. -
Don't decry Day-Z just because YOU are socially awkward

Why you need a tk penalty. A game is not real life. In a game murder = Fun
Castle (DayZ) replied to baleur's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My real problem is more along the lines of: Right now in DayZ player killing in DayZ is rewarding, and not player killing is punishing. When you get too many people working together you have trouble finding enough food / ammo etc to split between everyone. In contrast when you kill another player you now have all their food / ammo to yourself. Also it only takes a couple people with good weapons to take on large amounts of zed if they need to, while allowing them to avoid zed much more easily. There doesn't have to be something that actively punishes. Making the makarov not super bad and improving the zed could drastically change the scale. -
