if you go to a military location, you will likely find an m4 with ammo, and sidearms mosins are a bit rarer, but tend to be in parking garages and office buildings (as well as in some ordinary houses) I use this map to navigate: http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus zelenogorsk is my go-to place for guns, since there seem to be fewer people there
-
it's really not hard to get geared up I rarely get killed by players before I have a gun myself.

people need to understand that DayZ is Zombie apocalypse GAME and not PVP deathmatch
noblue replied to gamer222's topic in General Discussion
the zombie survival aspect of the game is so easy that all that's left is the PvP shooting -
my computer is quite good, and handle dayz at high settings. However, whenever I'm on a night server, the buildings glow in bizarre, neon patterns. Eventually the game locks up so I only play on 24/7 day servers
-
The server I was playing on went down, so I switched to another server. Now I'm stuck in a tiny room without doors. My character has pretty good gear, so I'm hoping for a way to salvage him. Is there anything I can do? On a related note, if I have to start over, how do I kill myself? The "respawn" button is greyed out as always.

We NEED some way to identify heros and bandits.
noblue replied to 1S1K-Airborne's topic in General Discussion
it is a problem, but the solution is for people to play differently. Labeling players like that would give bandits a huge disadvantage. It's also against the spirit of the game -
Well I managed to spam V and get myself stuck somewhere else. Then I alt tabbed back here, and now I'm dead in game. Dunno what killed me. Fuck.

Your current loadout? (Share/Discussion)
noblue replied to knyghtfalcon's topic in General Discussion
The main thing to discuss is Mosin vs. M4. Using both requires that you carry one in your hands, which is impractical if you want to use ladders and move freely. M4 is obviously vastly superior at close/medium range. Does Mosin have advantages that make it worthwhile? I'm currently using Mosin for a change of pace. Have a pristine PU scope (which makes me nostalgic for red orchestra). Hoping to get a long range scope soon. -
I'm trying a Mosin instead of an M4. It's better in some long range situations, and is nice for a change of pace. As other people are saying, definitely don't carry that much food/water.

Curious about peoples 'Rules of Engagement'
noblue replied to UNDERWORLD's topic in General Discussion
Pretty much just based on gear. I won't kill players who have little gear, but anyone with a gun is fair game. If I get the drop on someone and they don't have a gun out, but have one on their back, I won't immediately kill them (just because I can kill them if they try something). This is just based on experience. I've very rarely been attacked by someone with a melee weapon, but I've only not been attacked by someone with a gun once. After talking to him, I found out that he had no ammo. -
I've been in this situation once. I ran away, and the guy eventually killed me (after shooting like 20 rounds from an M4). My thinking is that I just spawned, so worse case is that I respawn. Meanwhile, if I let the guy rob me, he might kill me anyway, which would be frustrating. Plus I'd rather die a virtual death than be part of some guy's virtual bondage fantasy.

Why does every person with a gun shoot on sight?
noblue replied to joeymp's topic in General Discussion
If you don't kill someone when you get the chance, they will get a chance to kill you. It's simply not worth the risk. -
Of course you should be able to kill everyone you find. But it would be nice if there was a reason not to. If you have a chance to kill someone and you don't take it, you are giving them a chance to kill you. I stopped being merciful after a guy I spared killed me. It gets even worse with guns in the picture, because running away is often difficult. There's a huge incentive to shoot first. Maybe if the game was harder, and zombies/hunger/thirst were more of a threat, there might be an incentive for players to work together instead of killing each other.
-
They should not remove the ability to KOS, they should make it more of a decision. You make a good point with alerting zombies I don't believe "numerous players" are going the good guy route, at least not successfully. If you wait to find out if someone is a KOS player before killing them, they will kill you. Spawn killing and server hopping is another issue.
-
Danger is great, because there's tension. You have to decide whether you're going to attack someone you meet or not. Currently there's no tension, because 100% kill on sight is the only reasonable way to play the game.
-
This is only true if loot is more of an advantage than working together. If you needed two people with some items to clear a town, there would be an incentive for people not to murder each other as soon as they see each other. Maybe they'd kill each other after getting the loot, but even that would make things more interesting than they currently are. Thanks for this completely useless post.
-
As far as shooting goes, it doesn't get much easier than an M4. If dayz wants to simulate exhaustion/lack of training, muzzle drift would be better than making the gun inaccurate.

I love how proud you are of banning someone for absolutely no reason
-
this is hilarious, he didn't use a script or anything like that what a dumb fucking community
-
I know the guy, he's not a hacker unless you have actual evidence, and not just "he was online when it happened," you shouldn't ban him
-
Most of the time when I join a server, I wait 10 minutes or more at "waiting for server response" and when I spawn, it's in debug forest. Rejoining the server doesn't work, it just starts the whole process over again. Is this normal, or have I installed the mod incorrectly? I use Worrom's updater to play.
-
I'll give that a try, but when I spawn in debug forest I have no gear, and my sound isn't working
-
happened again, after waiting 20 minutes reinstalling the mod using Worrom's launcher didn't help this mod is really fun when it works, but it only works 5% of the time. I spend hours waiting, and no time at all playing
