Meeting the Hacker Within: A challenge to the Devs and the community.
zhrike replied to mangozapp's topic in Suggestions
No. In no respects do I agree. Hackers are a product of their own insecurity, immaturity, incompetence and/or cowardice. One of those guys is a hacker ... and the other live streams. Frankie is a very talented producer of fictional videos with the help of post-production editing and hacks (though maybe not hacking anymore). Live streaming ... it's all out there. Sacriel is the real deal. -

We NEED some way to identify heros and bandits.
zhrike replied to 1S1K-Airborne's topic in General Discussion
<Sarcasm> Foolproof bandit identification system in two steps. Step one: IF: they have arms, legs, a torso, a head, and aren't either dead or a zombie. THEN: Bandit. Step two: GOTO Step one. </Sarcasm> Plenty of people have argued intelligently and considerately already. The only thing I wonder is: what is stopping you from playing the game you want to play? If you want to be a hero, be a hero. You're going to get murdered. Regardless of any bandit/hero system, it's going to happen. Just play the game you want to play. -
Okay guys, who's going to confess being in this video :D

Who is arguing? I was making jokes. Settle down, Beavis. -

Precisely. Newsflash: You were the bandit. :-p -

zhrike replied to StayAlive (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
How do you know they were bandits? "They look like one!" "Well, we did do the hat ... and the nose - but they were bandits!" Three guys running in a field, looking all bandity. They wanted it. They were asking for it. -
I just think the blood system needs to go...
zhrike replied to scaramoosh's topic in General Discussion
You have the achieve healthy status first, then keep your energy levels up. Once at that point, if you bleed or get hurt you will see a "healing" status and depending on how much energy you had, and how much you lost, the regen is almost immdiate. -
Well this new patch sucks, can't find anything
zhrike replied to Hetstaine's topic in General Discussion
Indeed. First character - spawned at Solnichniy, tried a wrench on a zombie (bad idea), bled, tshirt glitched into floor, ran through Dolina to find another shirt. Eventually made my way through the woods to Devil's (not much there), and NWAF and the tents, eating and drinking along the way. Busy server, saw no one. Pretty well geared and healthy. Edit: And look at all of that BOOZE! Lost my characters after the patch. No biggie. -
Yes, those. The loot is in different places ... up close against the crates on the bottom floor, found a can directly in front of the stairs to level three, etc. I've climbed a few deer stands since this patch, nada so far.
-
Make sure you look on the hood of the police cars, too. Found an anti-stab vest on one.
-
Red-roofed barns are once again your friend. Kinda. Haven't found a gun, but at least they have loot tables and are spawning items again.
-
Booze!! Saving up to drink it all at once before running around in Elektro ...
-
Did you actually read the article? No where in it does it claim the game is a murder simulator, and in fact makes it clear that that particular term was from a reddit post, and is quoted. It's a good article about the game. From the article, towards the end: I think that's a pretty interesting and not uncommon reaction to the game.
-
I'm sure they'll do both. The question (in my mind) is whether the attachments disappearing when painted will be fixed before they release this patch to public hive. It's not exactly a game breaker, so I'd think yes, unless it was a simple fix. Industrial and military, at least. It's not rare. I think I found some paint in residential, too, but I'm not 100% sure.
-
They are jungle boots, not sure if they're new - in terms of color. Maybe they're 'Jungle Boots (green)?' I'll check later. It was the only pair of pristine jungle boots I've ever found, so it was the first I took. Jungle boots are in the current public SA. Edit: Jungle Boots (Olive).
-
Only you can decide whether those wonderful things make the rest worth it. Did your heart start to pump? Adrenalin going? Was it fun?

I loved 2017 - which was similar.
-
I've only found black and green. Painted my mosin black first, then green, and it came out camo. I think. It was night at the tents at NWAF ... I think it said green. I used it and moved on. I cannot paint anything else. I haven't tried the .357, but did try dragging the paint over everything else I had, and no dice for anything but the mosin, in terms of what I was carrying. You really should be able to paint more, maybe that is coming. I'd love to be able to make the fireaxe a little less obvious. Edit: there is an associated bug, BTW, when painting the mosin. If it has attachments, they disappear. If they don't fix that before it goes to public, just remove the attachments beforehand.
-
need an explanation on a few things.. please help!
zhrike replied to drgreenz420's topic in New Player Discussion
The shotguns are only in experimental right now. I've found mosins in residential areas quite often. Look in office buildings and bars/inns, especially. Also will find magnums and 45s in offices, and the rare m4 (if they still spawn there). Otherwise haunt the military locations and the ship on the northeastern coast. Check cars for maps. If you can open a door on a car, open all of them and check each side for map fragments. And don't server hop. Don't be a douche. -
Camo mosin. Interesting fact: Painting a mosin removes all attachments. I think I'll report that particular bug. I painted it black first, then later green. Not sure if green alone makes the camo design.
-
AKA the "SHOOT ME" beacon.
-
Maybe that, also - the loot was spawning underground in early patches.

Got rolled to the latest version 0.31.114500 and no servers in my list?
zhrike replied to dejahboi's topic in Server Advertisement
If you filter for 114500 you will only see the experimental servers.
