ill never forget the feeling i had when i found my first enfield. id go back to being a newb in a hearbeat

i get that its sort of a running joke around here but i dont get whats frightening about it other than the fact that theres no decent loot

tents are the best if you place them right. i have 4-5 tents spread across multiple servers and only one has been found...and that is because my friend put his right next to mine except his was sticking out in plain view >.<

ill take everything with a grain of salt until the game is installed on my harddrive and im playing it myself. although i believe Dean learned a valuable lesson with missed launch dates , im extremely skeptical given everything thats happened since then

at the risk of sounding like a COD turd, whats the most kills youve amassed in one life? last night i had 12 murders and 4 bandit kills before i got taken out...a buddy of mine i was playing with has over 50 and is still going :o just curious to see what you guys have to share, stories would be great!

pay close attention to side chat if you cant find anyone, every few minutes someone will broadcast their* location....makes it easy, almost too easy B)

189 days ! :o that my friend is a record in itself....i dont think ive lived past 7 lol

you might want to get your eyes checked. if the game gives you the option to abort, and you do so, it is in no way considered cheating

yes. just last night, it was nice and quiet as i was looking for a spot to land my little bird next some military barracks when a huey swooped in out of nowhere and started laying waste to my lil chopper.....i frantically scramble to the nearest tree line, flying as low and fast as i can until i see a place where i can make a break for it. my heart is PUMPING! im jamming for a good minute or two ..then all of a sudden, out from behind a low hill another huey comes flying in straight towards me. my hands are sweating, im freaking the heck out because i dont want to lose my precious gear or my heli,so i make a split second decision to drop as low as i can. in that moment, the heli chasing me engages the huey that just came into view. they are dipping and dodging eachother while both guns on both choppers are letting bullets rain down. after a tense few minutes i hear a loud explosion so i lift off again, and come to see both choppers lying smoldering in the ground. 6 bandit corpses and all of them were geared head to toe B) what a rush that was!

this game is still a lot easier than it should be...

there is a reason. as many others in this thread have stated, it is without a doubt the absolute safest way to play. by not taking a gamble on whether strangers are friend or foe you lengthen your life exponentially

"no PvP" servers exist? :o

on my second life, i survived for almost a week and had just found an alice pack and an enfield(i was incredibly stoked on them), only to be betrayed by a trickster in a betty van. that was the first and last time ill believe someone yelling out 'friendly' in side chat

DMR/M4 CCO SD combo is the best. DMR is the best gun in the game IMO, then the SD works wonders for silently disposing of zombies in high pop/high loot areas as to not draw attention to yourself. swap the M4 SD for an AKM or other M4 non silenced variant if you have a silenced pistol

your semantics are wasted, it wont ever be possible given the rate that technology is advancing

im not doing it just to argue, im just saying its extremely implausible that you've killed every person that's tried to get away. its very, very easy to get away from a person or even groups of people in dayz. all it takes is a couple zig zags to get behind something that blocks the aggressor's LoS and youre halfway to freedom. you say you have no 'ego' and then you go on this Billy-Badass tirade about how people never escape you and your group. ive played this game long enough to know that it (your story) is bullshit

whether you play with 5/6 guys or 25 guys, im positive you havent killed every single person you've told to drop their weapon. a lot of the dayz stories i hear are chock-full of hyperbole, this one i think is no different

unless you play on a newb only server, this is complete and utter bullshit. no one, under any circumstance, should drop their gun

on the road to Berezino is where i spend most of my time ambushing unsuspecting travellers :ph34r:

yeah, this just isnt true. 95% of the people that attempt to hold up other survivors or bandits are newbs. the majority of players that have tried to hold me or my friends up have found themselves dead. why would you risk the situation turning sour when you can kill them first and not have to worry? its much simpler and much, much easier.why? because any person in their right mind is not going to go down without a fight, especially if they have decent gear. secondly, what garauntees that you wont kill them after you take their gear? there is literally zero upside to giving in to someone demanding that you drop your weapon as far as KoS goes, ive been shot at more by people yelling "friendly" than i have by bandits or survivors. if im cruising along in my car and youre minding your own business, chances are ill leave you be. if you run towards my car screaming friendly over side, youre going down with a quickness. bandits get killed on sight by principle (even though i am one myself)

i lost him at "AS50" you, sir, sit on a throne of lies!

i think there should be some penalty for dying, respawning on the coast is more of an annoyance than a hindrance
