Not necessarily... Again, depends on the angle of the shot and the caliber of the round.. 22 will basically bounce off helmets.

...No logic in this post. Try to follow me on this one: 1. The higher the population of an area, the greater odds you'll be shot by another player.. 2. Berezino has the highest population lately, which means the odds of being shot there are the greatest. 3. Cherno is almost a ghost town.. very few people go there, which means you have very small chance of actually dying. So.. Why run 30 minutes? Because as soon as you get away from Berezino and the East Coast side of the map, your survivability increases dramatically and you have much better chances of getting considerably geared.

It depends on the angle of the shot, and how directly it hits your helmet; as well as the velocity and caliber of the round.

Nothing wrong with seriousness if it displays good play/skill.. I'd rather watch a few guys using good teamwork and good gunplay than a bunch of guys running around naked along the coast playing "Staying Alive" any day of the week. That stuff is only good for a chuckle and has been done so many times before.

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLPlh_fdK_oFoiXkanzFx97oq01xo0VgV I try to post good footage, whether it contains a death or not. That said, I rarely die.. The character seen in the first few videos I had for about 6+ weeks.. Then another for ~2-3 weeks. Lately been dying a bit more but also got a lot of action, so take that for what it's worth. Not about to say I am the "best" DayZ player, but better than the majority of DayZ players, for sure. The first videos in that series are probably not as well edited as the later ones, as I've gotten better at picking out the quality footage and separating it from the boring stuff... so you may want to watch in reverse. :) I'm open to advice/criticism.

My care level is 0. Consoles are for kids and bro-gamers.

Wrong section bro.

A must see for anyone interested in optimizing their dayz settings.

Kossuth and Etherimp test out Defibs on a living patient, Pacemaker learns how to quick-draw while surrendering, and Killshot develops a bad case of gas while handcuffed.

I agree... The Mosin seems really weak now.. I thought it was 1-2 hits to kill, until this happened to me: Happens in the first 3 minutes or so.

Kossuth and I set up in elektro, and started hearing gunshots.. We find a squad of 4 is operating on the south side of town.. First I engage at 800meters with the Mosin, and after a kill or two, we move in together to breach the building they're camping in.. Enjoy!

Yeah, for sure.. Elektro is a bloodbath. Anywhere outside of Elektro, we try to be more "friendly" and approach people and communicate with them.. But in Elektro, if someone is geared you can pretty much assume they're in Elektro for PVP. I'm fine with Hardcore and we do play on hardcore servers from time to time, but our "home" server is 3rd person, so that's where we get most of the footage from, as it's not very interesting to watch a bunch of guys trying to find one another and gear up together. :)

I come home from work and Koss is in a server watching Elektro, when he spots a sniper behind him.. He takes 1 guy out, then starts taking fire from another. I log in to assist and flank his attacker.. Followed by sniping, followed by more flanking! Enjoy!

They could just make it so you can't loot your own body... but then what about your friends? They can just pull your loot off your body for you, and drop it on the ground.. I don't mind the "running back to your body" strategy, as it's usually very risky unless you died to a glitch or zombie, and you're somewhere near the coast... unfortunately that's also where the majority of the PVP takes place, currently.

Uzi fits the region well.. MP5 is iconic and prolific, so that wouldn't surprise me either. Also, Uzi's are much cheaper, durable, and common. They're built similar to the AK in the sense that they are all pressed metal, where the MP5 is precision machined like the M4. MP5 has a lot of moving parts. Both will probably be in the game eventually, but my bets are on the Uzi.

Nope.. Just very familiar with Elektro, and the spot I am in. Edit: To clarify, I played DayZ mod for about 9 months before SA came out, then started playing SA on day 1.. I was never a huge sniper in either game, but I know that your max visual range is about 1000m, so you can roughly estimate how far a building is by how closely it falls into/out of that visual range. I've also sniped enough from that position that I know that the firehouse is 450-500, Memorial hill is about ~600, and anything behind that is 650-700 .. The house is on the other side of the road and they were inside of it and approximately in the back, so that's another few meters.. The top of the hospital is between 700-800 (front to back).. and the red house is approximately west of that.. So yeah, just experience/rough estimation.

THAT said.. I do think 10 minutes is a little short. A lot of fire-fights last more than 10 minutes. I think 1-2 hours would make more sense... Maybe have all the loot in someones inventory degrade over the course of the 2 hours, along with an increased amount of "fly" sounds around the body.. So for example... First 30 minutes, body is silent, gear is fine. Second 30 minutes, a few sounds of flies, gear degrades 1 level Third 30 minutes, more flies, body sinks 1/2 into the ground, gear degrades 2 levels. Last 30 minutes, heavy flies, body sinks 3/4 into the ground, gear degrades 3 levels After 2 hours, no more flies, body disappears, no gear left.

I'm going to sign your email account up for bestiality porn. (Edit: Originally, the OP's full account name was his email address.)

Nice headshots. :D

Aegis is on board with the medics. You guys need anything, let me know.

Kind of tempted to log onto their server just to wipe them and give their gear away... ..But they'd probably just restart the server. That said, the video was done better than the others I've seen.. Much easier to watch without the music.

If you can, use Shadowplay.. Fast and easy way to record. If some shit happens, just hit Alt+F10 and it archives the last 20 minutes of action.

120+ posts in 24 hours. Slow down partner. That's like 5 posts an hour and I'm assuming you slept .. Which realistically makes it more like 7 or 8. Troll much?

127 posts in 2 days?

No. I am saying that watching some kind of player interaction is more entertaining than watching 6 bads spray someone down. Create a tactical advantage where you can hold someone up. I have no problem with you shooting whoever you want. Just do it with some style.
