Or just learn the Cyrillic Alphabet. Only took a few days to be reading as fast as English. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_alphabet

I see a big flaw in your suggestion. Sea water is saltwater! Humans literally can't drink it at all!

we need to talk about the walkie talkies
Julius Caesar replied to irl-calibre's topic in General Discussion
I wasn't aware the devs added in the radios yet. -
I have a 7850 and I run it great on very high, you have a better card than me so I'm not sure why you're complaining. The FPS you're getting is better than what most people get.
-
Umm... Hate to burst your bubble, but that's impossible to my knowledge. F3 and F:NV have a "cellular" structure. A cell is a piece of the map that is loaded when you go there. DayZ on the other hand is loaded at once and changes to it are loaded if they are near you. The way it's done in Fallout is impossible for DayZ. But someone may find a way to make it work, I dunno. Sounds interesting though.

You do know that the blurriness is showing how much health not blood you have, right? Link to a good series of videos to explain the mechanics of the health and food systems http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/159251-merinos-in-depth-video-guides-updated-jan-7th-how-much-do-i-really-have-to-eat-and-drink/

Well, it's all up to the devs anyway. I personally like being able to practice my Russian with the signs. I guess I like languages too much as I know how to read German, Latin, Greek, Russian, Finnish, Italian, Japanese, and Spanish.
-
Well, in regards to pronunciation learning to read it helps a lot. Well, it can be immersive if you couldn't read it since the survivors have no back story. Since, it too annoyed me I went and learned Russian just to read the signs. Well worth it to me.
-
Ah, thank you for the information. Well, it really isn't an argument over the dev's time. It's more about it's place in the game's lore. It just doesn't make sense given all the information we have. Plus, learning at least to read Russian is a valuable skill by itself and then you can say a game can teach you something.

I agree, not all post-soviet states are poor. The poorness was assumed as the state of Chernarus is much much lower technologically to first-world countries. The statement of civil war is taken directly from the ArmA II campaign. Some luxuries like modern TVs, computers, and overall technology. From what we've seen in the Chernarus in ArmA II and DayZ, all assumptions of course. Perhaps, however we do not know what the state of Chernarus was before the civil war. Also, during the middle of a war why would anyone, Chernarussian or American, take time to change a sign? And from what I've heard US troops are required or highly recommended to learn the written language of their operations. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I don't know much about the military's stance on foreign language learning.
-
Well, the fact that it's a post-soviet state, poor overall, in the center of a civil war, and doesn't have the luxuries a first-world country does.
-
The entire theme of DayZ is "realism" and "authenticity." Also, a heavy, thin, steel road sign as a fortification/weapon? It's much too thin to protect against any projectile and the weight of the damned thing would make it an impractical weapon if you could get out of the ground. Plus we don't know how old the apocalypse is, after all we're still finding canned goods, working firearms, and ammunition. It mustn't be that old of a disaster.
-
Russia is a first-world tourist friendly, at peace country. Chernarus on the other hand is a third-world, war-torn hell hole. Now with zeds. Plus the "map" of Chernarus we play on is only a small southeastern part of the country, no where near hot-spots like the capital. Again, a short-term influx of people in a war/zed-torn country. Why would any one stop to change some signs?
-
Those are places in Asia, the majority of which have writing systems that are completely unreadable to most English speakers. Russian is very readable if you try to learn it. It only took me a week to learn to read at a quick pace.
-
I did read it. His reasoning is flawed. Why would a short-term influx of English speakers in a time of war prompt a broken government to make unneeded changes to their road signs?
-
You're one dumb person... It's Russian! Besides, why would a Russian nation have English in their signs when no-one there speaks or reads English?
-
Is there a "Load" option? The Mosin has a similar mechanic.
-
They need to fix the damage values >.< A .45 is for sure something you shouldn't be able to walk away from with three in your chest and the .357 shouldn't kill with a shot to the leg >.<
-
The Magnum for sure, I took three .45 to the chest at low blood and survived. I took one .357 to the chest at full blood and died.

Not too long ago I found the Aeneid which is an old Roman poem by Virgil, and it's in Latin. I love it! It was about 348 pages if I remember right.
-
Not true, I've found books in Russian, Latin, English, Spanish, German, French, and Japanese.
-
I know the answer. Right click the ammo inside the Mosin and click eject. Combine the ammo. Load into Mosin. Profit.
-
Why do we already have so many 24/7 daylight servers?
Julius Caesar replied to Gingerizhere's topic in General Discussion
I agree, it's the damned servers from the mod all over again! -
Mosin Nagant: Which kind of 7.62?
Julius Caesar replied to applejaxc's topic in New Player Discussion
There is no AK atm. Right click the ammo and press load ammunition. It'll take 5 and load the Mosin. -
Loot only respawns on a server restart if I remember correctly.
