Yes, that "assuming" would belong to me. :rolleyes: I know because since I don't shoot everyone I see I can actually sit back and watch others shoot newspawns that they don't bother to loot. ;) There are plenty of times people don't realize I am even around.

what kind messages you will leave on NOTES?
mercules replied to gamer222's topic in General Discussion
What? Looking for a date? ...and that quick I found one for you. -
Nope... they made an artistic decision and will be removing guns/gear soon as well as other functionality, they really want the game to be more primitive and had no intention of expanding it... ever. Did you really ask that not knowing the answer?

mercules replied to gamer222's topic in General Discussion
In whatever "storage" medium we end up with I'll leave notes for myself like shopping lists. :) -
Whomever it was that got "mugged" was hopelessly unaware. You can hear those footsteps getting louder and he didn't even glance around.
-
Yes it is. Doesn't mean I have to like playing with retards who spawn next to me on the beach and immediately start punching me to no possible gain. I have no issue with killing. I have an issue with morons who think that because you spotted a player you have to go out of your way to kill someone who is of no consequence and or threat or who camp and shoot bambies as they spawn in.
-
So you attempted to shove the ammo into the clips still wrapped in the paper? No seriously it is actually that detailed. Right click on the paper wrapped ammo and select "Open" or is it "Remove Ammo"? But then it will be 20 loose rounds which will load into a clip.

This... You can actually still move around, just stop and rest whenever you start breathing heavy and you will regenerate.

There are already more M4 Variations that the Mod. But... no.. they intend to only have 4 guns in the game forever. <_<

My friend and I were on a "No PVP" server. There was definitely PVP going on. One guy was following my friend around and he asked him politely to go away... "Or what?" "Or I will shoot you." "It's a PVE server." "That won't make you less dead."
-
You would still have to worry about those of us who will kill you for actual reasons other than, "Just because you exist." :) You might actually get some interaction besides gunfire.

I picked up a TrackIR5 with some money from Christmas. I was told to buy myself something frivolous and fun... so I did. I love it especially in the Mod when dealing with vehicles.
-
Yes, it is beautiful. There are some awesome cliffs up there as well as the "foundation" laid down for many larger cities. I looked out into the empty "Debug Plains" from several different locations and crisscrossed a good deal of the North. The train station is a neat little place, as are the multiple barns already laid down in the future farming communities. I am assuming there will soon be a North Central sort of spawn point up there after everything get added in.

why only 40 players max in a server? When then mod could have more then 75?
mercules replied to humberto's topic in General Discussion
You are correct, you do not understand. To explain it simply. Mod - 75 players, game creates loot/zombies as the players move about and removes it after they leave the area. This leads to things like no zombies outside certain areas and "knowing" a player is nearby because zombies spawned 250m away. It keeps the load on the server low, but is not an ideal situation and can be abused for loot farming. Also the server dumps a lot of the work on the client but that allows things like scripting to work and lets people easily cheat. SA - 40 players, game creates loot/zombies at server start and tracks it the whole time. Everything is server authenticated with a LOT of the work being done by the server to avoid cheating. So the server does a lot more work. In addition the game currently doesn't utilize multiple cores on the servers and is not even close to optimized as it is rather pointless when you are still reworking the core to tweak those things in anything other than very generic and high level ways. It will get better. -
Yep, had to do this myself. It should just be a quick "topping off". :)
-
You have no clue what the motivation of the two players involved was. For all you know they attempted to avoid him and ended up with him right smack in their direction of travel. He had a gun in his hands and basically was a threat headed in their general direction. Yes, they tried to kill him but you and the OP have no clue if they went, "LoL! Player! Shoot Him!" or "Damn, we were going to hit that grocery store. Now he probably has anything that was useful in it. We could try and rob him... oh crap he is coming back this way. I guess we just shoot him."
-
It might... Make sure you are forcing it onto 2 actual cores and not an actual and it's virtual core because an 8 core is basically a quad core with multi-threading doubling up each core.

M16A2 M16A2 M203 M16A4 ACOG M4A1 M4A1 CCO M4A1 CCO SD M4A1 Holo M4A3 CCO These are the "M4" style weapons in the mod. We have more options than that list has. It is an Alpha and was released in "minimal viable playability" mode. You are going to have to wait a good long time for more content. They added a new pistol and shotguns are around the corner, but somehow I doubt that will satisfy you. Your best bet is to log out and play something else for a month and then see what is new.
-
No I don't, because I am not already mostly starved and about to die from it most of the time. In SA you start out literally starving to death and a small can of Tuna isn't really going to make your stomach decide to stop complaining. If you eat and drink until you are actually full you can run around for at least an hour.

Opening and laying out 4 containers to get to the items you need in the last one doesn't take unnecessary time to manage? <_<

Allow private hives, but with regulations and licenses....
mercules replied to muggerfugger (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I would like my own server that is not part of the hive just to know I could go into a barracks and not have someone spawn into a room behind me. If I get shot in a barracks I want to know it was because I was stupid and didn't see the other guy, not that he logged in from another server despite me carefully scoping the location out before moving in. -
Exactly! Spawn on the beach. Someone else spawns and they immediately run at you and raise their fists. To what end? So they can tear up your T-shirt to make the rags they now need because they are probably bleeding from the fight? I've had to fend off those guys though.
