Caught one!!

I've never known a church to be a safe ground and in the mod you had to be careful as it was one of the few lootable buildings. The only safe ground is you on top of a building looking down at someone and using 3rd person with no other higher places around you to get sniped from. From that position you can talk to the entire world as they walk by ;)

That was 2 months ago... :lol: :lol: :lol:

HUH????

So you mean it's like real life? :o

Sometimes you wanna go Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came You wanna be where you can see Our troubles are all the same You wanna be where everybody knows your name... :D

Is that line caught tuna?

They should make the day cycles shorter, like 7 hours with 2 hours night time and the ability to see in it like you say above. Not perfect vision but enough to see around. As it's a game we play, we can code out the pitch black nights where you can't see a thing because nobody in their right mind would venture out into it. Would you go out in the woods in the dead of night in The Walking Dead series? Nobody would even think about it - it's death from zed for sure. Most people are going to be asleep during the night realistically so it seems that a 2 hour "night time" window is perfect. It gives players enough time to get things done and running it at 7 hours a day will ensure it rotates so everyone gets some night time experience on the server's they frequent.

Private hives ruined dayz - that is a fucking fact. Want to ruin the SA, let server admins run the game how they like and see how fucked up it gets. If these people want dayz with 500 cars and starting weapons they can go play the mod. It's still there so go fill ur boots.

That was useful. Just because your butthurt little head can't understand isn't my fault. Essentially, his post just blew all your arguments out the water in a perfectly reasonable way. It's up to you if you want to be a dumbass about it :)

I was disappointed to find that on our travels to explore the map, Green Mountain had been left untouched pretty much. That huge radio tower just screams of having more too it (i'd say an underground bunker for one) but surely after all the forum posts and the myth we all developed they'd have done something with it - so do it now and make it better!

No that's what comes up when I google UKB-76? LOL what is UKB-76?

I didn't say that.

Hated them (As and M107), they were ridiculous.

This is basically it in a nutshell. You never know what's going to happen when you log in, everything is open and everything is game. Unlike COD or BF, Dayz is not predictable. In a FPS the only thing to do is kill the enemy but in Dayz, you don't know what another person might do and because you spent all that time acquiring all that loot (btw if anyone kills me they're going to have a field day with my fully stocked M4 Pristine, pristine hunter bag, tkso pants and jacket and combat vest, porno mag, vaseline, ummmm wait! I need to bury that shit before I die...). All that investment and time and to lose it to some other player in a matter of seconds adds meaning to your gear. The other day on a 40 pop server my mate and I crossed the road leading out of Kamenka. We were up the hill and there was a large rock formation on the other side (We were scouting the hills looking for bandits). So I went first, the idea to head for the rocks and my mate covered the trees behind. As I got to the road I heard someone reload and then the sound of bullet's being split. Needless to say I legged it back behind cover and then we spent the next 10 minutes checking everywhere. Finally I went back to the rock and circumvented it (sweaty palm time) and expected to die but found nothing. We heard the bullet spilt sound again so put it down to a bug but that sound put our hackles up. It's amazing how you can go from feeling pretty much relaxed to sudden chest thumping in this game.

LOL me too! The character models are attrocious but the hills behind look ok :)

4th rule of Dayz.....expect to find every fucking thing thinkable EXCEPT the thing you want.

You sank his battleship.... :( lol :thumbsup: :beans:

TUNEEEEEEE!!!! \m/!!

Yes Yes!!! Please kill me and ruin my day so I can be a protester too in your cause!!!! I mean, killing me is going to teach BIS a lesson they'll never forget!! DO YOU HEAR THAT BIS!!!!! I'M GOING TO DIE AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT FIX UR GAMEZZZZ!!!!! What a fucking idiotic OP.

OP the guy you talked to was an idiot. Using gamma is an exploit and we all use it because we know other people use it. Preferably I'd like it that it couldn't be changed but we all saw night at the same level (never gonna happen) just so we can experience night as it should be. giving your friend a weapon or bandaging which is clearly part of the game and calling that cheating is fucking retarded and god knows what this person thinks about other things in life - totally misinformed. I'd say 3rd person is getting close to cheating, it's certainly an exploit (that Rocket said would be addressed) even though I play on and use 3rd person (shitty fps keep me from going full 1st person, being able to watch my avatar help the motion sickness that I never get playing games but the fps is that bad). I don't like that I can sit behind something and magically peer over it without any risk to myself and it's a lazy and easy way to camp (I don't camp btw). I would say cheating is using an external source that allows you an advantage over other players such as making all the trees and houses invisible to you or putting a glowing outline over every player that shows through objects or using an aimbot. This also includes running scripts in Arma like when we had people turning into cows and "thunder dome". Although scripts are part of arma, they were never part of DayZ Mod and thus are external to the game and it's intentions.

I would probably just exit the game if ur going to wait 30 minutes and why would they need to alt-f4 when they can just exit which is essentially the same thing? If you're not shooting at them after 30 minutes imo, combat has ceased (I would say 5 minutes is a fair amount of time to wait before logging).

Crap Damage?

I said it when the mod was around and before BIS decided to make it an SA that it needed a big investment. BIS made a shit load of money on Arma 2 sales - it was top of the steam list 5 years after it's release. How many people bought Arma 2 and have bought the SA already and given BIS millions in cash? They should have realised the potential sooner and potentially should have made a new engine - one that suited the genre
