How Serious do you get in DayZ?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to Goreman's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm pretty serious about this myself. Sometimes I like to goof off and have some lighthearted fun, but thats not very often. I play on a hive where me and three other guys are the only people not in a clan. I've met all of them, and we've agreed not to kill each other and work together if need be. You see, both of the two clans on my server KoS everyone regardless of where they side. So I have to be extra alert, because theres a good eighty percent chance that the guy I run into is going to paint a mosiac with my brain matter. So, I enjoy this game but take it seriously at the same time. I enjoy it for the intensity it provides and the tactical thinking that is needed to survive. -
I'm usually packing an AKM, so its my perferred weaon of choice. I've found it to be moderately accurate out to about 300m. Anything past that, and I use a CZ550. Its a accurate and common hunting rifle with easily found ammo. For zombies, I use either a hatchet or a M1911. SInce I can convert revolver ammunition into M1911 magazines, I find it to be one of the better handguns.

So, I was just curious what everyone's favorite ride is. Since I'm not a loot hoarder, nor aspire to be, I've only had a few chances to ride around. My favorite car is the Toyota Tacoma. Its fast, good for loners like me, carries a lot of gear, and has a smooth ride.

Great story, but I'm low on the beans.

People are so scared of death and what it means in this game that they...

DayZ is what you make of it. You shouldn't complain about how people play it. -
What do you want to NOT be realistic?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to phillyjoker's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I would like to scold the eyes of my enemies with flares, but that just ain't happening. So, realism is good but bad when overdone. Think FC2 weapon jamming. I don't think I could go for more than half an hour without my gun jamming up. -
wanting to do a death match on our server

Deathmatch is no good without...ROADFLARES. -
The giving of a title to the one they call "OrLok"

Doesn't the lonely necrophiliac get some support? Come on people, NOMMER OF CORPSES NOW! Your vote counts! -

Nommer of Corpses. Mostly because I enjoy necrophilia. -
What Have you Expected DayZ to be?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to Goreman's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Well, I was a disgruntled former console gamer trying out PC gaming. After buying a mediocre rig, I spent most of my time playing BF3 and Far Cry 2(I love Far Cry 2 :L). Anyways, back in early summer I was introduced to ArmA 2(through none other than CHKilroy). After strolling through some various vids, I came across a few marked "DayZ", or "DayZ Mod". I was curious, and decided to try it myself. At first, I was unsure of what to do. I'd only breezed through the campaign and messed around with cows and tractors within the mission editor, so I was unaware of many things. But the mod began to grow on me. Even to this day, I get fun out of it. I learned that this isn't a linear, movie style attraction ride with a copy and paste multiplayer. This is your story. DayZ is what you want it to be, and you have no limits to where you can go or what you can do. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a game more than this, I I'm not going to quit on it any time soon. -
Emetophobia - Will I have problems?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to mmsnow's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
What part of it? Making fun of someone who has a condition they can't help, or the strange phobias we've all described in gleaming detail. Or both? -
Emetophobia - Will I have problems?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to mmsnow's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I don't think its an actual phobia, but nothing scares me more than getting my throat slit. Its been like this for all I can remeber, and I get very nervous if anything sharp gets near my head. While I'm shure people don't take pleasure in throat slitting(unless you're an Indonesian headhunter), its something I obsess over. It kind of ruined Dishonored for me, because I remebered slitting the neck of one of the Pendelton twins in the whore shack. I didn't play the game for days. But OP, you shouldn't worry too much about the vomiting animations. I doubt they'll make it into the game, and it'll probably be some kind of hacking/rough coughing noise. But if throat slitting is implemented, I doubt I'll be playing this game anymore. -
Its suprising how many people don't actually keep their guns in safes. We keep my shooting team 12 gauge in my closet, and all the other guns in my fathers room. But I like the idea of guns safes, but to be fair the loot should be of a higher grade than what you usually find laying around.

That was rather...touching. Excuse me while I sob in the corner.

What's the most unrealistic thing you've ever survived?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to colekern's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I was riding around in my tractor a bit east of Vybor on a dirt road, when someone flying a biplane tried to hit me. They were flying low, about seven or eight feet off the ground. Whilst I braced for impact, the plane hit my tractor. The plane went flying backwards, hit the ground, and went into flames. My tractor went from all yellow/green, to mostly yellow with an orange hull. I get out of the tractor, and my legs are broken. To say the least, I was baffled at what happened. -
Weapon Customisation
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to shadowboxer (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I don't like the workshop idea at all. I can fit a rifle scope on and off my .22 within seconds, without any assistance of tools whatsoever. I also think some of the attachments should be weapon specific, and that every weapon in the game should spawn without any attachments leaving you to go find them yourself. -
My rig? Ermkay here you go. Intel core i3 3220 Nvidia Geforce GTX-550 Seagate Barracuda 500gb 7200 rpm hard drive Asus motherboard Corsair "enhanced" gaming memory, 6gb I run the game on mostly low settings, at okay frames. I average 20-35 outside cities, and it can float around 15-20 inside the larger cities. I'm planning on building an entire new PC from the ground up, and my planned build will probably net me high settings.

So what is your DayZ Flavor? Vanilla, 2017 or DayZ+
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to hempyhustle's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
DayZ +. I just enjoy that zombies are more dangerous, and that we aren't tripping over NATO weapons at every military base. I've actually enjoyed some of the new AK variants, and have been training with them in ARMA editor in case I do run into PvP. Vanilla is actually an equal to +, as its pretty much the same thing but with wimpier zombies and more...ugh...NATO weapons. I don't like 2017. At all. I call bull to the whole "three weapons in the entire game" crap, and I don't think the world would be in that much of a shitpile in five freaking years. Twenty? Maybe, but thats still a stretch. But I like that survival has been emphasized over the other two, but it gets boring fast. -
Weapon Customisation
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to shadowboxer (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Its pretty easy to zero a rifle. Some people who have never had to zero a gun think its rocket science, but its not. Its just trial and error until the sights are alligned correctly with the point of impact at a certain range(say 300 meters). -
Weapon Customisation
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to shadowboxer (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I want to tape my AK magazines together, so I can have faster reloads and my magazines are bundled into a single item(lets say the magazines taped together). And opticals sights, they don't always fit to rails or certain gun mounts. The Kobra sight could be for the AK series rifles only, and so is the PSO scope. This would bring an advantage to rifles with rail systems, as they can fit a higher variety of optical sights and attachments. I would also like to see alot of the rifles from the RH AK weapons pack. Search it up on Armaholic, it would fit DayZ very well. -

What do they mean by "Completely redone"?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to MrONEBADDUDE (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
One, never ever mention WarZ as an equal to DayZ anywhere on this forum. But from what I understand, you're a dissapointed customer of that game and have come to DayZ for a wholesome experience and not a rushed steaming pile of shit trying to suck up money from a mod, not a game. And secondly, alot of stuff is getting overhauled. Textures, animations, zombie skins, weapons(I'm telling you, UK59 best be in it), and new bits of the map. But I'd recommend you go ahead and get Arma 2 and the mod right now, as waiting for the standalone is a mixed bag. There is no definate release date, so its a hit and miss. But you should also enjoy vanilla Arma. Dark Buisness is a recommend by me, and search up CHKilroy on youtube and look for his vids on DayZ and Dark Buisness. I like Kilroys DayZ vids as its less about the fancy bling and player killing, and more survival. And screaming. So much screaming. -
Do you think that REAL reload animations would be important for the Standalone?
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to colekern's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I always wondered why all the reload animations were identical, and why it was so fast. I can empty an AKM mag, duck behind cover, and withing one and a half to two seconds be fully reloaded. Why not implement a different reload animation/reload time, to where reload animations before combat are smooth and relaxed, while animations during combat are slower and shakier. I'd think it add a wholesome bit to immersion. And I've alway thought BF3 has had the smoothest and least flashiest reload animations that work. -
These are mighty fine ideas, but I don't know how much of it can be achieved with todays technology, let alone the Real Virtuality engine. But I must admit, Rhino has some pretty good ideas. And makes a damn fine tutorial too.

well it appears ive gotten every forum teamer to hate me
Cap'n (DayZ) replied to JamesMoore's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I never hated you to start with, but I'm not very fond of you since you told me to "fuck yourself". Why can't we all be civillized?
