Blood and Bullet holes (Decals & Particle effects)
Azrail (DayZ) replied to LackLustreSurvivor's topic in Suggestions
this. and we need snow. i want snow. i want snow trails. and for the blood... they've added actual suicide and canibalism, which i never thought would happen. so i think adding some (convincingly) gore should be the minor subject for the vice squad to jump on. but i guess there's a tons of work to be done further upwards on the priority list... i wouldn't mind some gore... gief me the GOAR :E -

Hosting Survivor Games Regulary!
Azrail (DayZ) replied to Snailer (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
running a server, and building a community to fill it with life, is hard enough on it's own. if you have no concept to start with, other than a promise for a survivor games mod that may be released in the future, noone will really stick with it, other then using it to server hop military spots. you need that mod, or at least a very basic attempt, to be ready when you start your server. you want to create a mod like this from scratch, but you don't have any knowledge about running a server or creating a mod, and you don't have any people who do. and then you take on some fierce competition, with the survivor gamez held by hicks, and the battle royale mod, which appears to have a dayz-spinoff now. if you are serious with this, you gonne need a hell lot of money. if all else fails, enough money will always do the trick. but to be honest. so far that doesn't sound like something i'd want to invest any time or money into. -
a friend had his car explode because he drove too fast in a bend. seemed like the car actually fell over from centrifugal force. yesterday we drove 2 trucks from zeleno to prison island. yea, the truck appears to be an u-truck. nothing odd happening, other than random 1-2 second graphic lags while fullspeed on the road, that scared the hell out of me. also had my share of some wild offroad jumping. i use 100mbit unitymedia.

If the devs added Namalsk as a playable map i would cry of happiness
Azrail (DayZ) replied to Pyongo Bongo's topic in General Discussion
you be full of awesome <3 -
rarest loot is always the ammo for the weapon i just found, especially pistols. i will find every other possible type of ammunition, and IT DOESN'T FIT IN THERE

Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
Azrail (DayZ) replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
can't remember to have seen this happen for ages because all they do (when not chasing after something) is stand about and stare at things then again, in SA i've rarely been in a situation where zombies are a real threat no matter how many of them are after your brain, grab any melee weapon, strafe around them, and keep clicking bring back the scary times! -
Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
Azrail (DayZ) replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
in the mod, they used to eat the player after he fell to the floor from blood loss. and after death they continued to eat the corpse. i think they just didn't get the animation for the SA yet. -
Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
Azrail (DayZ) replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
so yea, zombies do spawn in a zombie survival shooter, and you happen to play the most annoying game ever, so of course they will spawn right in your pants and screw with your testicles. eeew. but not all hope is lost! watch some zombie splatter before playing dayz leave your lights on while you play, especially at night times get a jockstrap (FULL METAL!) get a buddy to watch your back while you jerk off in a bush don't let them get you down. chin up! -
Guide to etiquette? How to be new right?
Azrail (DayZ) replied to CabbageNPeas's topic in New Player Discussion
people tend to kill you if they suspect you want to kill them. either talk or shoot, very simple rule of thumb. -
so with the possibly most annoying thing i can think of about dayz, server restarts. will the server's ever growing hunger for frequent restarts ever stop? as far as i remember, back in good old arma 2, it was neccessery to restart servers every few hours due to a memory leak which would otherwise lead to a crash. there is hope this memory leak might eventually meet it's fix after all these moons? or is there any other reason why server restarts always have to happen in the most awkward moments.
-
i know that. and i am not talking about crashes. i thought i made that as clear as possible. let's say a friend told me he found and left this epic rare item somewhere, and i can't get there in time before server restarts - those are the moments i'd like to pull my hairs out. more frequent? well most servers i join restart few times a day, but i want to know for how much longer this wil be still neccessery. i'd be satisfied with just any dev response :)

the point is... you need to click on the malware. it doesn't miraculously start itself, some part of user interaction has to be involved. anyways, infecting your windows machine right after a fresh install, can't remember i've seen that in my 15 years in business. my hats of to you. and using windows xp as a malware protection is an interesting approach, have my beans for the good laugh xD

yo hi, so i have this hunting knife. it's worn. i heard you can commit suicide with any sharp or shooting thing by pressing F11 + Left Mouse. animation looks promising and all that, until ... nothing really happens. my girl sits there and holds her arm up, with the knife in hand. i really tried all mentally possible key combinations, to no avail. almost looks like she just refuses to commit. but i made up my mind, she has to go. and pretty please before the remorse get's on me, will ya. now, i found that hunting knife very early after spawn, which leads to the assumption that not-so-rare items are excluded from the suicideable item pool, to prevent suiciding for better spawn points - am i on the right track here? if so, shouldn't start the animation with the weapon in hand in the first place. for example when i press F11 with the compass in hand, she will put it away and just point out with her left hand. then again, the torch appears to be messed up in the same way.
-
getting yourself infected is not a matter of OS you use, it's a matter of choice, what to click on, and what to stay clear of. the worst security issue always sits infront of the screen. i know that, because i'm one of those who have to clean up the mess people do to their computers day after day.
-
it becomes wierd when grown up folks talk about the "better" way to commit suicide :S anyways. i eventually starved. how boring. it would be useful to know what's the exact mechanics on suiciding (what can i use, when, where, how, is some kind of sorcery involved, etc) and i want to see the goooooooore :E
-
this place is haunted. some crazy shit going on there, like zombies shaking their rotten bones to justin bieber *shiver* but if you can make it, try the double backflip from the tower platform, really worth a trip just for that. just remember to bring some sizzurp for the admittance, or you be dismembered by the party doormen. :rolleyes:

Too many barracks and Stary Sobor tents [appeal]
Azrail (DayZ) replied to DayZbalkan's topic in General Discussion
you could just scoot over to the other new shiny pvp battle grounds, pvp is not hard bound to stary sobor. although you can gear up elsewhere and arrange an epic squad fight in stary sobor with your favorite victims, if you so choose. /sandbox -
did you even read the 20000 warnings it threw you? and if you did at least a tinsy bit of research, you'd know that this actually IS a restart in development. thus being the reason why it's still in this very early stage.

you are kidding there is a med kit or a shirt in every other house
