    Who put CoD 4 in my DayZ?

    You should play it, it be fun and stuff. Also the weather system actually makes you fight for survival instead of being a bandit douche with nothing better to do....great stuff

    Player Reset Please

    You know a game/mod/w/e is fucked when a VIP is telling you..."ya sorry your fucked kthxbai"
  8. 50 meters!!!!!???? I kind of understand the whole 70m initiation of attack but da fuq if some stray shot hits 50 meters in my area im in combat.... The distance should be way less maybe 15-20 meters.... example- You said you want people to be able to just shoot at a building to keep the person "pinned down" essentially....well heres my gripe. It the person is "hiding" in that building i think it is only right to force the attacker to actually shoot at the point where the person in the building is... elaborated- If im in an apartment or the school/office and im on the top and they are on the bottom they can just fire a bullet randomly every 15 seconds or so to keep me locked in...OR better yet one person and his buddy are taking advantage of the combat or "locking" system. One just shoots a shot every few seconds. While the other sneaks in and kills the other. To be honest that could be a good thing...idk i would have to play it for a bit before forming a complete opinion on the distance. Even then it won't matter not like i could tweak the distance anyway.
  9. I like the map, i just don't like the loneliness...

    Two very annoying problems

    1. Is your PC good? also do you have hardcopy or digital copy of arma 2. Yaaa you are not alone the whole broken direct chat is just a dayz thing...sometimes it works other times it doesn't...don't know why but ya the first one...sound like hardware issue
  11. This is a long post if you are lazy and do not want to read please don't bother commenting even if you read or skimmed some other sanity meter idea this is different. NOTE: These ideas for how sanity would work are a bit of a "stretch" Ill try and be as to the point as possible. Quick overview for those who don't know what i mean by sanity meter, i mean a new feature for the HUD that displays your mental state/sanity this would be mainly for measuring your PVP PVE activity. You start neutral, if you kill you go more crazy with each kill, if you help other people and cooperate within a group you are benefited. The system works on a stage or level system there are 3 stages for good and bad Losing sanity STAGE ONE: So lets say you start off, find a gun, and kill someone...being neutral you would go into the negative this is more or less a warning. (You revert back to neutral after an hour or so of no killing, or if you bandage or give a blood transfusion to instantly gain sanity) STAGE TWO: If you kill again while already in bad you start blurring your perception, you are now enjoying and or becoming numb from murder it is no longer about loot you are lustful for blood, because of this you no longer see the gun or backpack of survivors you come across. (A longer wait time say 2 hours or if you bandage a person twice or give one blood transfusion) STAGE THREE: Who are we kidding your a homicidal maniac who has blurred the line between real and unreal, you are in a zombie apocalypse you have never known the word cooperation you only know how to look out for number one. Therefore EVERYBODY IS A THREAT everything that moves is a "walking dead" since you will make it dead soon enough. At this stage of (seemingly) no return you see players as zombies (yes it will still be kind of obvious who the real people and who aren't if observed close enough but if they are crawling...good luck) Don't worry there is hope if you feel like repenting...no entering a church and crouching will not help (your in a zombie cluster fuck, that shit is already forsaken dumbass) THE ONLY CURE is to stay near other people for a good 15 minutes or so....that will revert you back to stage two insanity from there you cure it the way as described in the earlier steps. SUMMARY OF SANITY (BAD) STAGE ONE -warning (bandage or blood transfuse to revert to neutral) STAGE TWO -you don't see the equipment of other survivors STAGE THREE -you see survivors as zombies (Don't comment just to disagree especially if you just read the summary the reasoning is quite fair and logical in the paragraphs above...) Gaining Sanity STAGE ONE: If you are neutral and "help" out someone by bandaging them transfusing or being near them without killing them....you gain sanity. After about 30 minutes you eventually get to see their name (even on servers that are expert god forbid any game mechanics take away from the realism) STAGE TWO:If you have bandaged someone multiple times or given them two blood transfusions or stayed around them for an hour you are obviously at least "buddies" or "pals" by now and are cooperating well and have created a "system" to communicate with. To put it simply you can "whisper" each other in close vicinity (perhaps tweak the vehicle channel to have it be the "buddy channel" so to speak) This would give you the ability to talk and decide what to do when a "new comer" enters your group and don't want them being able to listen you use that channel. Yes i know people use TS and skype and stuff but a lot of others don't plus this "buddy chat" would be for more "spur of the moment" buddy making and cooperating (letting you know that it is actually a valid option to play alone and have the possibility of finding a group) STAGE 3: By this time you are a band of brothers/sisters you feel like you can take a bullet for one another and or dodge bullets to save one another. This "bond" was created through time and cooperation to achieve this you need to have bandaged or transfused AT LEAST ONE TIME and spent around an 1h 30m+ with the individual you wish to have a "bond" with; you are aware of each others behavior you can anticipate how each would act when in each others vicinity. Having a bond with someone allows you to see an icon above their head on the screen (the same party icon you see when in a squad in reg ARMA2). SANITY (GOOD) SUMMARY STAGE 1 -you get to see their names no matter what type of server. (It is unrealistic to not know a persons name or be able to distinguish a persons look from others, after spending time with them) STAGE 2 -You gain access to the "buddy channel" or the ability to "whisper" with whomever person(s) you have been accompanying. STAGE 3 -You gain the ability to see icons over companions heads (maybe even on the map though you both would need a GPS) (I feel i am going to regret making a summary section as most will just view them and not even bother hearing the reason or logic behind each stage...and a flood of ignorant flame will commence) P.S I think the ideas listed could be tweaked or modified if needed which is why im posting to hear others opinions on these ideas. THE REASON I POSTED THIS IN GENERAL This idea has been suggested with humanity return and what not, i am posting this to hear the opinions of the ones who browse general (mix of everyone) since this is also a discussion dealing with a possible deterrence of those who PVP or as i would say OVER PVP and also benefit the people who cooperate since IMO they are the only ones being punished right now (since if cooperating you have to split loot and keep track of each others actions) when compared to PVP (just kill them and take their shit now you have more stuff all for you) it is quite obvious what the majority of people will choose. There needs to be a tad more balance and also more features IMO and i think this deals in both.
  12. I see the combat logging being buggy and hotfixes right behind this update addressing these bugs...similar to the disabled respawn button. Yaaaa i can't wait to see ALL the new forum posts being titled along the lines of; "OMG OMG WTF I JUST LOGGED BACK IN DEAD WTF" and "WTF I LOGGED OUT ALIVE NOW IM DEAD"... Hopefully the system works...i just hope that there isn't a bug where the abort button is perma locked after put into combat mode...how long does it last? What if for some people it lasts for way too long and they have to log out by force closing...and they get killed from BS. Or my favorite fear; what if someone is hiding and just looking at the esc menu waiting for the abort button to turn back on....it turns back on...but it doesn't register with the hive when they abort and it counts as a force close....idk i just see issues like that coming along...but i hope im wrong...
  13. FINALLY TOOLBOXES HAVE A PURPOSE AGAIN... Now about that no eating and drinking in a vehicle....um ya that is just kind of dumb...since that was one of the realistic things i thought about the game....in fact i wished it was expanded upon through giving medical aid in vehicles...it is just logical and makes sense being allowed to eat and give medical aid in vehicles...now for things like bikes and such...eh ya that wouldn't make sense. But can't those be excluded some how... I like how a lot of exploits were addressed but the whole no doing anything in a car just seems dumb to take away....last time i checked some people live in there cars...and eat...and drink...and i think i can put a bandage on while in a car... I thought it would actually add a nice cooperative experience allowing other people in the car to heal each other....sooo can we like make that happen oooorrr no?

    So what is special about namalsk

    ...ok no response was....uhg. I was trying to ask what else makes namalsk special? Besides the temperature, hidden gun, and needing to repair equipment.
  15. YOU POINT FINGERS THATS WHAT....except this time there are flash backs for evidence http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFrufeIl7Qo
  16. The cut away's are flash backs i recorded what went down and also the fallout from it, if you listen to the dialogue and hear what they say right before it cuts that's what its flashing back to...guess i should learn to use the expensive editing tools, to make sounds and animations P.S i have the video where we get killed on the same channel titled panthera hackers everywhere if you want to see what we were arguing about without all the cutting away.

    DayZ Stuff

    http://www.youtube.com/user/SlySychoGamer/videos?view=0 The channel in which they are on, if you wouldn't mind checking them out, no need to like or especially dislike them just trying to get some views, the reason i mention the liking disliking thing...idk i never liked that system, cause whenever you like a video it gets put on this playlist that seems like the unwanted step child of the favorites playlist...idk then the dislike is just there so people can just be A holes and makes them feel in power I mean i can see when the likes and dislikes can be used to send a message on videos that debated hot topics...but for silly things like user created videos i don't see the point in it. Im not a fan of it, but neither do i like taking away from people so i turn likes and dislikes on anyway.

    DayZ Stuff

    With a team
  19. Note the trolling is second half of video.
  20. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9vzmjWHmv4 You can pause if you want to read the white text cause you know most people don't read super fast...sorry i didn't ACCOMMODATE YOooOOOoouuuUUUUUuu But ya so we argue and shit...its just funny cause its me and this other guy arguing about how stupid this other guy is and the 4th guy is kinda just backing the dumb guy but not really...heh It's funny cause it is like trying to argue with a religious fanatic about religion or a pro life person about pro choice you know those stubborn jackasses who are so adamant on their beliefs it is impossible to change their mind...

    This is how you take a hostage...(video)

    Oh people comment on this guy's crap video but not on my shenanigan videos...okay, damn negative internet criticism I DIDN'T NEED YOU ANYWAY *HUFF*
  22. Ya if they are spawning shit that means they using programs to cheat...i think admins need way more detailed logs like who killed who and how, so if people actually screenshot or tape proof of hackers they get banned and shit.
