    Organized battles?

    How do you ping to East Coast US servers?

    If you live in America, we could probably work something out... How many guys you thinking? (Optimally, I'd be happy with 3-5)

    TL:DR, you combat logged, so your character sat down for 30 seconds while a zombie pounded on you, which is what killed you.
  5. Look at the species of Wild Boar, and look at the species of Domestic pig ... They're the same species, the only difference is the "domestic" part, which was originally coined by Carl Linnaeus in 1758.. Source: https://agrilife.org/texnatwildlife/feral-hogs/distinguishing-feral-hogs-from-introduced-wild-boar/ Fact: Domestic pigs, once released into the wild, become feral and become "boar-like" in behavior and appearance. Fact: It's very difficult to pin-point and identify the difference between a feral domestic pig, and an introduced wild boar. Fact: They are the same species of animal (Sus scrofa), and are only divided into "sub-species" based on their looks, measurements, and behaviors.. Which, as we've established, changes dramatically between being feral and domestic. Fact: They freely hybridize/crossbreed. The wiki that you linked does not undermine anything I've said. It's vague at best. And, finally, to put the nail in the coffin of this debate: https://www.outfittersrating.com/species/featured-species/wild-boars-and-feral-pigs
  6. Well, that's one factor.. but also, in the Mod if a tent/vehicle was not interacted with for a certain amount of time, it would disappear/reset.
  7. Tents/Persistant storage will be server side only. (It was in the mod, anyway) Character loot will be carried over from server to server.
  8. For the record, I was not directing my comment to you, specifically. It was more of a generalization. Also, the pigs died because they were kept in a stable.. ie: domestic.
  9. Taken from: http://blog.mlive.com/flintjournal/outdoors/2007/11/domestic_pigs_quickly_revert_t.html Also: Taken from: http://www.ask.com/question/how-long-does-it-take-for-a-pig-to-turn-into-a-wild-boar Also: Taken from : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_pig Note: Domestic pigs and wild boars are THE SAME SPECIES of animal. The only difference is that one is domesticated, and the other is feral. Just more proof that 1/2 the people on these forums are talking out of their ass 1/2 the time. Domestic pigs would not "quickly die" in the wild... they would become wild boars an thrive. They can eat just about anything, they grow bristles and fur to protect them from the elements, they grow tusk to protect them from predators, they're physically very hardy and tough, and they can also grow in size. Larger animals have better protection against cold due not only to an increase in fat, but also their decreased surface area per pound of flesh, meaning they can retain heat easier..Boars quickly and easily make this conversation from small domestic animal to hardy wild animal. PS: All of this leads to the conclusion that the pigs in DayZ should not be bald and without tusks.
  10. No, they won't.. Here's what people are misunderstanding here: THERE ARE NO DOMESTIC PIGS IN THE WILD. NONE. ZERO. They don't exist! Why? Because domestic pigs, once released into the wild, ACTUALLY TRANSFORM INTO WILD BOARS. Yes.. They grow thick bristles, tusks, and their noses actually extend so they can root better. So it doesn't matter if "pigs got released from farms!", because even if that was the case, those "farm" pigs would quickly revert to their feral state and become BOARS. Pigs and Boars are the exact same species of mammal.

    5 single shot headshots in a single play session!

    Not DayZ Standalone, but figured I'd post this here anyway, to show some of you SA guys the fun we were having in the mod recently... ...and oh yeah, I'm a hero on Vanilla DayZ. :D
  12. EtherImp, Kossuth, Hyde, and a new friend BigBird come across a V3S being driven by 2 Bandits outside of Zelenogorsk, and attempt to repossess their vehicle. A heli gets stolen, but we borrow someones ATV to hunt it down.

    A little tip for when playing at night.

    If everyone CAN do it, some people WILL do it, which means if you DONT do it, you will get killed by someone who DOES.

    Or just turn up your gamma/brightness. :X

    5 single shot headshots in a single play session!

    3:30 - I was fairly certain nobody was there, and I snipped out a lot of footage of me stalking around the building and checking for people.. I had my gun out just in case, and if he was possibly just unconscious.. 6:00 - I waited for quite a while before approaching the body.. I also checked all of the common hotspots, and hadn't seen or heard anything else for quite a while. Of course running across the airfield is always a risk, but it paid off and I didn't die. 6:52+ - The server was restarting I THINK every 2 hours.. The footage covers approximately 2 hours of playtime.
  16. 6 weeks playing 2-6 hours a day. About 12 to 15 kills. Survived being shot unconscious to kill my attacker with a magnum on the 2nd day. Eventually died west of elektro to an invisible player right after logging in.
  17. A couple of buddies and I meet up in Svet and make our way the long way around the airfield, moving through the treelines... then we hear all hell break loose at the airfield and decide to move into the middle of a shoot-out between 2 other squads. I compiled this at a higher quality than usual.. Think I'm going to be doing that for the rest of my videos. Takes a little longer to compile and upload, but the visual fidelity makes it worth it. As always, I appreciate constructive feedback! Thanks for watching, and enjoy. :)

    SKS kill thru ATC door + 3 groups clash at NEAF!

    You aren't missing much. Mostly hype, imo.
  19. If you guys have Nvidia cards, I recommend upgrading your drivers and getting Shadowplay if you don't have it already.. Makes recording SO much easier.

    SKS kill thru ATC door + 3 groups clash at NEAF!

    I may make a series of videos on Hardcore servers, but I do not appreciate the insinuation that because I record videos on 3rd person servers it somehow invalidates or undermines the quality of the video or the skill required. I could go on a rant about this, and how certain youtubers with over 1 million subs use 3rd person, set up scenarios, have less action in their videos, and actually CHEAT USING HACKS, and yet everyone kisses their asses and they can do no wrong in the publics eyes.. ...but I won't.
  21. You need a better recording method...Bandicam is pretty bleh. Otherwise, good action.

    SKS kill thru ATC door + 3 groups clash at NEAF!

    Everyone can do those things. Seems like every video i post someone complains about 3rd person servers. You do realize that dayz mod was ALL 3rd person servers and that all of the experimental servers were 3pp, right? Its not like I'm cheating. Also, I don't know if the guys we killed were bandits or not. There are no bandits or heroes in dayz SA. Just people making choices. Why can't people watch a video and enjoy it for what it is?

    Nope. Was recorded a few days ago.. (this weekend)

    LoL Opt out

    Thanks. Glad we agree. Now off to the Rust forums with you... ...Maybe you can figure out how to properly edit your post over there. Looks like your keyboard threw up.

    m4 appreciation

    I'm no MLG all-star, but I read in a blog somewhere that it helps if you aim at your target.
