DayZ Standalone Review - Is it worth getting?
AP_Norris replied to carbine781 (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
Hits are a bit over the place, but I'm guessing thats more to do with stability issues than anything.I'm very thankful for the time put in to make the change from the old system though. -
DayZ Standalone Review - Is it worth getting?
AP_Norris replied to carbine781 (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
Some may think of lack of loot as a pro. If there was twice as much loot end game would take half as long. I think of lack of loot as a pro I think of the current zombies as probably the biggest con for me, honestly only seen about 20, I find melee good enough though and I have only really been hit by a zombie once. I speak from about 8 hrs experience. -
Is it worth buying Dayz standalone yet? [With Developer responses]
AP_Norris replied to Blade4777980's topic in General Discussion
Depends if you can hold out. The longer you wait the better your first experience with the game will be. If you have friends currently playing... don't hold out, it's very much fun with your friends. -
[Question] Which items are as of now useless in the alpha?
AP_Norris replied to iAwesome's topic in General Discussion
I'm also assuming firewood and matches would eventually allow the making of fireplaces. -
[Question] Which items are as of now useless in the alpha?
AP_Norris replied to iAwesome's topic in General Discussion
Errr, I'm quite sure you can use it to bind hands, I might need some confirmation on attachments though. -
If your lucky there might be some loot left in balota. Good as military loot. You don't really need it though, and it's a player hotspot not worth checking if you have much of any value. Head north early, there really ain't much worth on the coast. Remember you can look in cars and that only military areas spawn military style loot.

I like it the way it is. My only complaint is ammo is too common in places like Balota. It just becomes a bandit hotspot. My first character took over 6 hours to gear up well. My second character after Rockets Genocide took half an hour to gear up twice as good in Balota. The only downside is there's unfriendly's hanging around like a bad smell.

Wooden stick is used to craft makeshift bag I think. Duct tape for binding hands, it can also attach flashlights to some guns? Wrench for hitting ppl. -
I would prefer to leave survivability and skill to player knowledge and player skill. Something that has no real use other than fun misc activity like a song you learn for an acoustic guitar or along those lines.

Is it on your head?

Lost full Ammo Box due to server restart.
AP_Norris replied to iAwesome's topic in General Discussion
I did that with a medpack on my first guy and I didn't notice at first but I lost allt he gear from it either falling out/ deleting itself. -

AP_Norris replied to iAwesome's topic in General Discussion
I lost my character of six hours and in the first hour I have better gear from a single trip to Balota XD -
Well, I thought there might be a mag bonder/ spacer and two mags, but apparently it is just another item found pre made.
-
I'm not sure if we will see barrel length changes. I'd be all for it. The G36 does have a great range of sights though. I wouldn't mind it if the carry handle was removable though. I was also thinking of guns with a foldable stock being a inventory space shorter than guns with a fixed stock. The more depth in little things like that the better.
-
Folding knife should take 1 space while the others take up 2.I wanna see some late 15th century armour, eventually and extremely rare.
-
What happens when you have no sights on the M4?

Security Vulnerabilities fixed by Patch #2 and Character wipe
AP_Norris replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
I'd love it if they did that to them. -
I think they need to nerf Balota :beans: http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/486685318986560657/A8B21862ACADC488499F98DB09041D7DFB6D496F/ can't figure out how to shrink images... my format is too gewd?

RULE 1- Don't get attached to your gear
AP_Norris replied to Hetstaine's topic in General Discussion
I was attached. But I guess I can get over it. Would've liked to have shot my Mosin though. -
So zombies are the same?They keep scaring me as I'm in my inventory and theres sounds from all around me.

How to survive the first few days of Dayz SA?
AP_Norris replied to Ynneead's topic in New Player Discussion
Because if you can't find food you are surely going to have a gun and ammo.Terrible advice, never encourage being a bandit either you terrible person. -
I think ballistic helmets can ricochet bullets. Not many helmets can actually stop bullets IRL though.
-
So you put your knife in your bag and food in your coat?
-
Like many things in the standalone it's a great base.Personally I think it is a great improvement. I'd much rather they do general bug fixing first, while adding new features like ragdoll.
