IRL an untrained gunman will try to use his gun instead of arms & legs.Putting him at a disadvantage he doesn't need to be at. Having no guard up IRL from a punch will often have you knocked out in 1. Keep in mind boxers have gloves on and also have their guard up. Bare knuckle boxing is extremely dangerous.
-
Did he have his fists out?What you do when you get this is use your mic, tell him to get back. If he still comes at you pop him in the leg. No need to killshot a guy without a gun.

Crazy stupid luv

A lot of people won't run right to three dead bodies in a pile. I wouldn't. More than one = suspicious, anybody after two equals no hope newspawns.

I was thinking about doing this to a new spawn once, just to see if he would shoot me. I should've I fell off the container ship half an hour later (got some good screenshots though) If you do it, please post it on here and reddit. Maybe you can start a trend.

Possible just glitch on top of a glitch/ crash/ server reset. Unless he was saying he is going to kick everybody It isn't a hacker. If SA.

Day Z Standalone: Tips and Tricks or New Players
AP_Norris replied to 360Nation's topic in New Player Discussion
If someone says friendly. Don't shoot at them. If someone shoots at you shoot them. If somebody waves, don't shoot them. Don't get close to people with melee weapons. Use your mic, it is your best tool. Communication is key to avoiding conflict. When you think you're at endgame don't go trying to kill people, go trying to help them. I always found it a lot more fun trying to help people. A good 50% of the time they will try and kill you, why hunt out people purposely when they provide no challenge but when if you wanted to get shot at you can just walk around as usual. -
Advantage could be similar storage space, and don't get wet in shallow water.Less protection though.

Huehuehue, battleloggers. From the battlefield forums :) Got banned for saying P***** people are nice, but untrustworthy. Still banned :(

SUGGESTION: Bigfoot in remote woodlands.
AP_Norris replied to cunninglinguist's topic in General Discussion
Anything like this should be a super rare, possibly activatable. Seriously those things are about as common as zombies in Namalsk. They did make it harder to survive though, for the first time I was stuck in a tower unable to get away because I was on low blood and there was 6-7 invisible bloodsuckers on the ground. -
I find the new system can be very dramatic.This in a sense was not, for me the third person breaks the realism completely. And the fact that the acting/ roleplaying is very wooden.
-
1-3 punches is a knockout I think.I can happily say if you hit somebody standing still you could easily knock them out in one. Probably in the temple though. Punching is fine.

Like Gandalf says, run you fools.

So... now what? (The DayZ Paradox)
AP_Norris replied to superfluidity's topic in New Player Discussion
How can you have 4 Fnx mags and no Mosin ammo? -
Don't hang around the coast being idle.Point your gun at him. Keep moving away to let him know you aren't interested in killing him. When you feel you are at a good distance lower your gun, wave and run. But, if you are in the open 2 secs from a spawn point not paying attention, not moving, you aren't safe.
-
Yes, this will get rid of the infectant/ sickness.
-
How? How are you that bad? If you don't like it wear a motorbike helmet. It's realistic, unarmed people can be lethal.

Removal of elevation adjustments by 100s of meters.

Wind and stuff. -
Sometimes I find the hits a bit slow. But they usually hit where I saw the model hit. Zombie knockouts could last a bit longer. But all and all, It's still alpha and I'm sure these are things onboard the tweak train.
-
We can't have MORE people swimming to utes to get farm the super awesome loot spawns. It's the only place that most server hoppers don't know about.
-
Pretty good sniping. Definite difference than old mod sniping. Damaged off zeroed scope, bullet don't 1HK at great ranges. Much harder to do if you ask me. That second guy could've gotten off the roof easy though, they're in open not moving in the first place aswell. I don't feel bad for that rooftop camp squad.
-
The only time I have died when logging in in all my dayZ history was when I logged in ontop of a rock. You wouldn't have this problem if you went into the forest to log out. Even in a clump of trees. People see someone login in a populated area? Ofcourse they're gonna shoot that server hopping asshole.

What? Go away yu.

(SA) Chopper crash/random event idea
AP_Norris replied to victusmortuus's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Last stands could have infected clambering over the barricades as you approach and gunshots from a tent. Inside the tent you find a soldier that was standing door guard for some civilians. When he saw the zombies getting through he turned and fired on the people he was meant to be protecting, trying to save them from a slow death or becoming infected. His primary should have an empty mag from killing civilians and be destroyed as he smashed zombies with it. You don't see any of this happen btw, just hear it on approach (maybe gunshot flashes) your LOS is completely broken though, by tents all around so immersion can't be broken by trying to shoot him. Maybe thats just silly though, I think that should be a rare occurrence actually, 10 times rarer than the camps themselves.
