  1. enjoyed. liked the destination/current position thing.
  2. I see good suggestions while some shit ppl suggest is beyond ridiculous and such simplified logic. I can appreciate a 20-30 second timer, but even a minute is stupid. Someone rings on your door bell, or there's any number of minor emergencies, you log out any where near a populated area your coming back to a dead character. As for being kicked, I get kicked for battle eye/version upgrade issues, because some servers will lower there ping restricted range or I begin to fall out of it. I have a fiber optic connection but random disconnects happen (in this game more than any other I play. I hate cheaters, can't stress it enough. But these suggestions will end up effecting us so let's think before we make them. Peace and love tho ya know, people can say whatever stupid shit they like.
  3. Bandit or survivor, you won't find a better group of people to play with. My best DayZ experiences have been with this bunch.
  4. I'm still enjoying these, keep em coming
  5. 20 or so meg over a few (3) hours I think (my maths stinks). But that 7.5gig download is gonna be a killer. Thanks for reminding me to appreciate my abundant internet.
  6. London UK: 26ms ping Loading took a little while (20/25 seconds I know right :)), next to no lag once in. Connection: fiber optic 25mbps
  7. roughly twenty encounters now, all but two tried to kill me, the 2nd of which I killed on sight (and he was unarmed).. Iv'e become KOS, I wasn't originally but after a good ten times walking around a corner and hesitating only to be shot repeatedly I kinda turned into a prick. If your not where I'm going (pretty much directly in front of me) Ill leave you though. EDIT: Oh yeah Ive never announced my presence, I think that's insane.
  8. good tips. "At first, the zombies will be a pain and will probably kill you Then, once you've figured the zombies out the players will be the real threat Once players aren't a threat to you, bugs and glitches will be If the bugs and glitches don't get you, you'll probably be offed by a hacker You're gonna die ;)" pretty accurate.
  9. Deer stands and the airfields, even the tents in Stary Sober can be worth the trip.
  10. I like this keep it going
  11. Iv'e run slower than the team I was playing with and I was sure it was to do with ping, the only example Iv'e had to the contrary is running faster than people in the US playing on a US server whilst running slower than than my friend in Bristol (a couple hundred miles away). But that could be down to personal qualities of connection etc.
  12. I've had the lighting problem but have not for a while, I'm not sure of the exact cause. -http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=13116 As for what your finding, I've had similar lives, other times Ive found nothing but empty cans and chem lights in 2 hours (after spawning by and searching the southern airfield). So u can just get unlucky. To give yourself a fighting chance and slightly better odds of picking up something valuable, I aim for all deer stands I can fit into a trip to Zelenegorsk (pretty quiet) then hit up the supermarket for a bunch of goodies. Deer stands and supermarket are two low-medium risk loot spots with fair chances of spawning relatively good loot. Buildings not being enterable, yeah that is a bitch but it's the ArmA 2 map. I'm sure when this mod is out for ArmA 3 or or as an expansion/standalone, they all will be.
  13. Men playing as women actually made it uncomfortable but I guess that has more to do with my own prejudice. I "just died right now, thanks mum bye" was pretty funny. The fire fight was good, vid didn't seem long, enjoyed over all.
  14. For me farming is ok, at its simplest it's like the reward a group get for effectively holding an objective. Duping is cheating and saying that it's taking advantage of a game mechanic is like saying hitting alt+f4 during a fight is an intended use of a scripted feature. It's just cheese. At the moment while there aren't intended objectives I think things like area farming can actually add to the game but what do you think, is it considered as bad as duping, is it as frowned upon by the community?
  15. It is really dark, I won't deny it that, it's pitch black. I want more people to play at night, as it was I was literally the only player running around on UK7 last night. But I'd found NVGs at a crashed heli earlier and wanted to get at least a few hours play with them. So I was alone, searching supermarkets for a ghille suit. I understand why the night has been made darker, and I don't want to have to crank up gamma settings to see be on an even playing field because that's some cheesy shit. I'd rather there was more artificial light when nearing places where zombies spawn. If we have street lights or lamp light at least you wouldn't be running into zeds and buildings and players who spawned at night would have more than just chem light sources to be attracted to. I also wish more people just made an effort to play at night, when you do something that's hard for a while they eventually become easy. Playing at night isn't any different but people barely give it a chance.
  16. I disagree that there aren't already intensives to group up, but I welcome more and really like a lot of the ideas put forth.. Still miss bandit skins though.

    Lucky Hatchet Kill

    nice, great gun. Ghlillie guy if your reading this, why where you there? just fucking with freshies?
  18. I play days. Bought my computer 3 years ago from a computer fair for £650 (just the tower). So if you avoid the major retailers you should be able to pick something up for a fair price.
  19. My team and I team where doing this last night. It was a lot of fun and we got everyone pretty well kitted before losing it all to a group raiding the town we were holding. But as a straight up player I wanted to know how the community viewed this tactic before I indulged it.
