  1. When someone attacks you, just do what I did in this video, and swear a lot.
  2. Let me tell you why this is bullshit for two reasons: 1. It isn't in stable yet. 2. You can only have a heart attack when you are unconscious. It won't just happen randomly.
  3. Exactly. There are two game breaking bugs that they are currently working hard to crush. And those bugs suck big time. Worse than what than what the OP is crying about. Not to mention all the tweaks they mentioned they were doing over the weekend, including tweaks to the back end and purging the experimental DB. So really, this thread is pointless. Here's some tweets from yesterday, the 14th: "We're bringing down the experimental servers for an hour or so to perform some back end maintenance." -Hicks "Experimental coming down again for a few more tweaks." -Hicks "We're investigating the cause of issues of network performance in experimental currently - so you will see low server #'s." -Hicks "Just an FYI, you'll see vastly reduced experimental server numbers over the weekend." -Hicks "Notice: The Experimental DB will be purged over the weekend for testing purposes." -Hicks. Source: https://twitter.com/Hicks_206 But this thread, and people in agreement, are trying to convince me that they aren't doing anything... Utter fucking bullshit. Excuse my french.

    Winnipeg. Curriculums change. So saying 'Zee' was never an issue for my teachers until later years in High School and post secondary. I really like your vids! Keep it up.

    DayZ Da Seasons

    So based on your comment, I searched and couldn't find said link that you are so sure of. As you can see, from this thread: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/177936-weather/?hl=seasons#entry1823631 - it may actually be possible. So you, Sir, are full of shit.

    I'm a Canadian, and I was taught in school to say 'zee', not 'zed'. It didn't change until later, so most of the younger generations say it that way now. Not I, though. I am a Canadian 'Zee' man all the way.

    The spawn time is outragios

    OP's clan can't server hop fast enough, and it's bothering them.
  12. That new running axe speed will kill ya. I mean literally, dudes with axes run so fast now and it looks scary. Although you are right about the pistol running anim.
  13. They have optimized moving around, so it really feels incredibly responsive. That clunkyness that everyone hates feels like it's been eliminated. I also think they increased the run speed, as I am zooming place to place. Either way, strafing and movement in general is a dream now. People are going to be really happy, as everyone I have talked to says the same thing. Once they nail down that horrible invisible bug, it should be ready. I can truly say people are going to love the new movement!

  16. How does it affect you? My story is rather lengthy, but if you have one, I would love to hear it. I ran into a new player who had just installed the game. He was definitely 'uninitiated', and I wanted to give him a good first impression. We ran through Kamy, and I told him we'll skip Elektro altogether. I told him why. It was a full server, so we heard the chaos. I told him to go there, after I showed him the ropes, if he truly wants a taste of how the seagulls fight for garbage on the coast. I told him there is more than that. I told him to be like Jonathan Livingston Seagull. I was teaching him to fly. We headed to Pusta. We looted. We headed to Prig from there through the wooded trail. We looted. We headed to Cherno, where it was untouched and extremely juicy. We looted everything. I taught him about medical supplies as we ran through the offices and hospitals. We hit the new police station. I taught him about guns. We hit the restaurant. I taught him about food. The fire station. I taught him about fashion. The gas station on the way to Balota. I taught him about maps, landmarks, compasses and bearings. He was like Neo in the Matrix when he's learning 'kung fu' and shit. A machine. The more I showed, the more he asked. Genuinely silly questions too, so I truly knew he was a freshie. As we approached Balota, I started to really get into the dangers of this game. We touched on the subject in Elektro and Cherno, but I felt like I was shielding him. I felt like he needed to know. I told him of the server hoppers, loot whores, Tiny Tim's and blood bandits. I told him of the disinfectant deaths, and food poisonings. His tone changed. With all the great depth I had been teaching him about every other aspect, I think he realized how deep the rabbit hole really goes. We came to the first military jail building. I wished him luck, and that he could add me on Steam if things get bad. As we entered, the first thing we saw was blood raining through the ceiling. "What's that?!" he said frantically. "Someone was killed upstairs.", I say, "Wait here and close that door." I clear out the back room downstairs. Then I slowly made my way upstairs to a jarring sight. At the back corner was a cuffed and stripped player who had been executed with a few shots to his head. It was a truly grisly find, and I had to break the news to the Bambi downstairs. It was true shock, and I stood there for silent and still for a few seconds. "Everything OK bud?" he asked, snapping me back to reality. "Yea, man, it's clear.", I said, playing it cool. I had to show some gall for the freshie, even though I was feeling somewhat off. It was an odd feeling. He came up and was shocked as I was. "Whoa!" he said, truly taken aback. "This is the shit I'm talking about, and if you just follow everything I've taught you these past hours, then you'll reduce the chance of this happening to you. But don't think it won't happen, and don't combat log to avoid it. Just take your death like a man and never get attached to your gear.", I replied sternly. He stood there, not moving, looking at the body. "This shit is fucked." he said. At which point his character sat down and logged out. I just sat there for a few minutes with the executed man. Flabbergasted by the whole ordeal. A true testament, that even after a 1000 hours in the mod and SA combined, this game can still shake even the most seasoned vet. Thanks for reading.
  17. This is what I like to see. The communication is outstanding!

    The impact of finding a body.

    Interesting. I reluctantly agree, as I never mentioned that to him. I don't hold it against him. I think being ritually hazed through rotten fruit and disinfectant would have been an easier lesson. Now he's going to log on in that same spot knowing what can happen. Paranoid. I'm sure it has already ran through his mind...

    Food cooking, soon here ! (picture)

    It's working on Experimental. Except you can't put anything in the pots. As far as I can tell, the only change is the addition of slots in the pots, and the above picture of the pot turning red. If you set it up near a well, you can get the pot to smoke.

    How to record high quality videos

    I found Mirillis gave me the the same quality I got with Fraps, with a more manageable video size. The differences in size and quality is hardly noticeable.

    How to record high quality videos

    Mirillis + Sony Vegas + Youtube recommended render settings in Vegas = Good stuff. EDIT: I found that it's the render settings in your editing software that can be the culprit of crappy quality vids on YT. They actually have recommended settings for certain editing programs for best quality rendering. I've used them all. All of them. And I found that Mirillis works best for me. I am really happy with the quality it outputs. I don't recommend using the export feature though, as it compresses it. Which makes it really bad for editing and rendering later. The quality is always worse, and comes out blocky. So I've just started editing the raw files instead. At the end of the day, it all comes down to personal preference after much trial and error. Doing that will net you the best results, if you have the time to test them all. If you're serious about it, then I would suggest that route.
