Last time I spawned at the wrong place I jumped off a cliff, broke my legs, crawled around to find rags, craft a stone knife, got some sticks, crafted a splint, fixed my fracture, and went right back to the cliff to kill myself. Why? Because I spawned on the opposite side of the map from my friend.

So hard to find mosin/attachments, or is it me?
James Hawke replied to Leo Harrison's topic in New Player Discussion
Mosins don't seem particularly rare to me. I carry one and I've come across several others. I suppose you're just unlucky. -
Yup, makes sense. Though they need to fix the line of sight thing, too. If a zombie loses sight of you, it should follow you on the route where it saw you last, giving you the chance to get into a house, close the front door, and sneak out back. The way it is right now, if you do that, the zombie will just run around the house because he knows exactly where you are.

My friends shoot anyone who is geared ...
James Hawke replied to EvilTigerAce's topic in General Discussion
I only had one encounter since the release of 0.49 and that was only "friendly" because I had a gun on the guy. I told him to just pick a direction and go, I wouldn't follow. He went away. My gun was not loaded. xD -
Loot spawns - anyone else frustrated?
James Hawke replied to johnny0964 (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I just went through the Vybor military base and came out with an AKM, a drum mag and two 30 round mags. Additionally I have a 30 round aftermarket mag and 40 rounds of spare ammo. Hell I don't even know what to do with that stuff... -
Loot spawns - anyone else frustrated?
James Hawke replied to johnny0964 (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Haha... the first time I played this patch I was frustrated about not finding any proper clothes! Or food! xD I don't give a damn about the AKM. I was happy to find two Mosins for me and my friend. And plenty of ammo for other guns in case I find any. Assault rifles should be hard to come by. -
I find the Longhorn rather useless, especially at close range, as it has only one shot. You'd have to make it count. With the sawed-off Mosin at least you'd have five warning shots and one well-aimed toss :P

"Other Player Near" messages suggestion
James Hawke replied to Cliff_beefkake's topic in Suggestions
Sorry, I think that's a bad idea. "I think someone else is near"? That would tell snipers when someone's sneaking up on them. It would tell people in buildings when someone's passing by on the street, although they'd realistically have no way of knowing that. You could just as well call it "I think my spider-sense is tingling..." xD For the other one, what if someone has killed a lot of people solely in self defense? Would he appear untrustworthy to you? And how can you tell from the looks of a person that he has killed people? Doesn't make much sense realistically. -
New NE airstrip civilian Terminal. Bye ATC tower?
James Hawke replied to chompster's topic in General Discussion
I like this. The map is way too militarised already. -
This might help. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/182917-battleye-solution-for-failed-to-update-kicks/

Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
James Hawke replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
It usually works, but not always. I had a zombie on my tail yesterday, ran into a house and closed both entrances. The zombie stood outside first, but suddenly he stood behind me, which was unfortunate... -
For supporting the development of the game and testing it while it's being developed.

M4A1 Can i be added back to Genral Military?
James Hawke replied to WuBzAtYoUrDoOrStEpZ's topic in General Discussion
Not always. -
Awww.... the suspense was killing me. That guy deserved to die xD

No one want to play because of the reset...
James Hawke replied to kircheschm's topic in General Discussion
I'm playing nearly everyday with my buddy. We don't care much that it's all for nought because we're used to dying ^^
