DayZ Redux - Custom, hardcore and whitelist-only.
shagohad replied to Very Ape's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
yeah there are new updates coming, great server to play on if you are tired of the bullshit you find elsewhere (hacking, snipers) . Great community too :) -
actually there is a still a core group of at least 10 regular players, we do need more but the nature of the mod (intense squad fighting) supports a smaller number of players and is still interesting come play here if you want to experience what DayZ is really all about. Ive been playing DayZ for a long time and this is the only mod I really like and is a great server and community to boot :)

DayZ Redux - Custom, hardcore and whitelist-only.
shagohad replied to Very Ape's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
I welcomed Warsaw to the server by drugging him with chlroform (a redux addition) and dropping him off a ledge :) with all the new players trying to kill me my humanity has been taking a beating hehe, there is a TS server though and you can always find someone to team up :) also if a bandit in Cherno says they are friendly im being honest! Dont attack me :) (I just dropped Warsaw cuz I was bored and it wouldnt hurt my humanity) -

DayZ Redux - Custom, hardcore and whitelist-only.
shagohad replied to Very Ape's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Would highly recommend this sever if you are looking for the feel of original DayZ as an old school player whose been around for a while, or if you feel like you missed the boat on that and think most hives are strange version of ARMA 2 pvp :) make no mistake pvp is here but its up close and personal, you gotta work for it and the risk reward metrics are much more interesting as not every player will have full gear but an Alice pack is worth a fight Its not scarcity taken to an annoying level, just one that makes there actually a point to fighting, looting, and raiding camps right now the sever is an all out faction war between a couple groups vying for vehicles, cities, and gear with the occasional lone wolfs in the mix too :) also the community is great and there is a mumble server where you can meet peeps, join up with people and get into the action :) -
DayZ Redux - DayZ purist focused custom DayZ Mod (Formerly DayZ DIAF)
shagohad replied to venthos's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Yeah, if you are tired of all the bullshit and want to get back to a real dayz experience with new content as well join up :) Its fun to actually have a camp, maintain vehicles, and seriously hunt for gear If all you wanna do is snipe on Dobry with an AS50, look elsewhere -
So I come here and all of a sudan this post is about cars
-
humanity doesnt reset, within a certain range you regain humanity, however after 2 murders or so I dont think it comes back, if you play on private hives this is most likely broken though
-
hey man, its only an issue on private hives like you said, not really rockets problem, if you really care play hive

Join me in my quest to restore the natural balance of DayZ
shagohad replied to Doom Guy's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
you say no hive wipe then explain a problem that can only be "fixed" by a hive wipe why not wipe it? I would bring the fucking game back, make shit worthwhile again, until then private hive is the way to go, less bullshit I understand the wipe is only temporary, but seriously as you said the balance of the world has been lost :) -
I will offer a lee-enfliedl for an m16 acog :)

To the Bandits on US 1960 last night, 2 Confirmed Kills by CQF.
shagohad replied to Yojimbo2019's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
wait so you combat logged? -
only issue is it makes it kinda grindy like i can what? just find an extra akm mag, then fire it into a wall = now im better at it. I agree though that currently its too easy. I think if in general guns had larger tradeoffs for using them it would be better. For example wieght should be an issue, recoil, noise (more of an issue than it is now) im sure also current methods of ranging (mousewheeling on regular servers) will not be effective and so actually learning the zeroing of your rifle will be important. would be cool if you had to adjust every rifel you found, therfore the practice has a tangible meaning (not just progress on a skill bar)

DayZ players should have the courtesy to play Arma2 at least once or twice.
shagohad replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
People who bitch about how no one is playing thier game right are jsut as usless as those who constatnly bitch about how broken DayZ is. Face it, DayZ is consistatnly marketed by the media (not this team) as a complete game, people arent expecting bugs and arent interested in military simulators, that does not make them stupid, ignorant, or not part of the community. They bought into something else. I played Flashpoint back in the day and bought ARMA 1, but honestly I was quite tired of military sims... personally the mismatched in game troop dialogue just made me cringe. However DayZ is fun in lots of different ways. But if you have some buddies who have not played ARMA 2 i highly reccommend getting a Diplomacy Fails server going, its hella fun, link explains the game mode http://community.bis...arfare_2_Manual -
There should be no high grade weapons in standalone
shagohad replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The problem is not with the tier of weapon but with a sort of general innaccuracy in things. For example if I was to pick up a 50 caliber rifle I would most likely have a hard time operating it and being at all accurate. I would also be quite if exhausted if I was to carry said sniper rifle as well as a mk48 and neccessary supplies/backpack and run everywhere I think you need to look at balance more holistically for it to be enjoyably integrated into DayZ I think rocket is working towards this, he talks about things like batteries for weapons optics and stuff like that, i think the balance will be more detailed then range/damage/recoil, all of which are failry shallow and dont give a lot of variety. I would enjoy more descion making. Such as is this AS50 really useful to me? as I would have to sacrifice significant gear/energy to carry it, it will slow me down, attract zombies from much farther, be harder to fire in close quarters combat. Thats why I really dislike the current pistol nerf. It used to be that I would never take military pistols, I could one shot zombies with a colt, this meant I would on average take less damage. They removed that aspect and now the guns are averaged out, I might as well carry a high capacity pistol and take headshots, it made it a little more shallow. I want descions to be tougher with weapons rather than just a linear progression from not good gun-to better-to best :) -
The Double Barreled Shotgun exceeds my expectations.
shagohad replied to Tabris07's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
does anyone know the damage of an individual pellet? -
I generally like the game but I had my worst PC game experience ever today
shagohad replied to TrangleC's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
hey man play a non-hive server and just ask any questions on sidechat/ maybe meet up with some other noobs side chat can really help, met my best DayZ buddy back in the day when side chat was around still, ran from elktro to cherno to bbag and morphine him, best friends for ever after :) you are also less likely to get shot by an AS50 (but only marginally so :)) -
The Double Barreled Shotgun exceeds my expectations.
shagohad replied to Tabris07's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
until you get a winnie or a lee its definetly worth it, for pvp i reccomend pellets, unless you are playing with croshairs its hard to use the ironsights and thus slugs effectively, the pellet scatter is quite effective even at range, i totally fucked some banit up in elktro, was on the hospital roof, broke his legs over by the school with pellets, zombies did the rest :) plus it is totally badass and makes you feel like jason bourne if you know what im talkin bout' -
yeah they are lootably pretty rare...but pretty much a dime a dozen these days as they are on every frickn asshole on dobry or the cherno rooftops
-
usually : really?...... i was friendly.....ok....there you are.....yeah....youre going to shoot me...(Shagohad was killed) sometimes its hard being a hero :)
-
you can just shoot someone once, and let them bleed, dont bandage and you can blood as many times as you like, no need to keep shooting them :) this is much more challenging and fun if you try to just heal randoms :) i keep losing my humanity for killing snipers on dobry....some guy is a surivivor but fully geared and ghillied shooting at ppl with an AS50 in Elektro.....
