How can we make a players life more important than his gear?
thedogfoodyayho replied to knawx's topic in General Discussion
Heres my idea. You start as a lasey, out-of shape civilian. Diet. Very important. Fruits are MUCH better for you than canned goods. Eating tons of cereal will have a long-term negative impact on your speed and duration. Eating your greens does the opposite. Strength. Lets fac it, most people can't chop your face open with a baseball bat. Practice increass damage. Exercise. Want to snipe? Better not do it ALL day, unless you want zeds eating your ass Weapons. Now, your probably going to rage "Omz fkin noobz" as son as you see "Weapons," but listin to this. I'm not saying accuracy or anything like that, but Reload/operatin times. Do you think everyone has loaded, fired, & safetied an M4? No. Reloading at first should suck, especially with complicated military weapons, and even more so whenoading larger magazines. Weapons like revolvers and Shoguns are easier to use and should have no penalty. Maybe your strength should also (slightly) effect recoil and weapon sway. It does irl. -
Awsome work so far. 3 or four updates in 4 days? You guys are awsome.

How to reload 45 Pistol and what the heck is the defib for?
thedogfoodyayho replied to Keudn's topic in General Discussion
Check out the military tents at balota and firestations for .45 and stanag magazines. Best place. -
Would be cool if walking west tooks you to "Wesern Chernarus", and same for all sides of the map. these would go to the border of the country and would be smaller than the main map. although you couldn't spawn in northern chernarus for logicall reasons, it would be mainly wilderness for building. building. its what made epoch so popular. however, i don't want an epoch-level building system. more like: this photo is from Chernobyl, but you can see what i mean. small cabin, grass roof. that would be HIGHEST level lower levels would be kinda like this, though not exact: medium would be this: you could also build misc fences, guard towers and base improvments. Next up: cars. much harder to repair and keep running. guns. more customization = more players wanting to create the gun of their dreams, or "pimp out" their m4

The axe now hits where the head connects. go into first person, and you can tell where your axe is going and ajust acordingly (fail spelling) BTW, the pistol is very quiet. loot some firestations!

Suggestion: killing a player destroys at least half of their items.
thedogfoodyayho replied to originalyellow's topic in General Discussion
Well, maybe more shots destroy more. that would encourage the use of civillian weapons like the mosin. the problem is, the KOS'ers don't typically even care about the gear. they play the game ONLY to empty an entire magazine on fresh spawns outside kemenka. -

I've had a few hostile encounters that i posted on other threads, but won't post in here. One was where i saved a guy in an electro shootout. Most of my encounters have been friendly, exept my first. Albeit most of the people i saw were unarmed. But anyway, today was pretty action-packed. After my character was wiped along with everyone else, i spawned in kemenka on a low-pop. I see some guy with a flashlight in a house and decide to follow him. He never actaully saw me, although i know he had a suspension that i was there as he kept weilding his flashlight around him. But i followed him all the way to balota and left him to loot the barracks. I find an Empty M4 and a pistol with no magazine and assorted other loot in the military dorm, and then i see him coming in the door. He sees my and freaks, runs around the back. I say: " Fiendly. I'm leaving." And i head to the other dorm. Apon leaving that someone with an M4 in the jail cell by the door opens up my i get away unscathed and haul ass to the apartments behind balota. I find a Mosin with ammo in one of the office buildings and head to the supermarkets for food. My headlamp dies now. After looting the back room in the market i head back to the front, and see a guy looting some cans. Me: "Stop. Pull out your flashlight." Him: "Okay. Please don't hoot me." (Or something like that) Me: I'm leaving, don't follow me." Him: Something about he's not going anywhere. I couldn't really hear him as i ran out the door. Layer i see a guy with a mosin and flashlight on an Apartment balcony. I decide its safest to go the other way. Now i'm leaving cherno to meet up with my bud.

How about this: M4 - 2 Shots at 100m, 3 at 200m, ect. Cuases more bleeding than 7.62 guns. M91/30 - shot at 500m, 2 at 800 but knocks unconscious. FNX 45 - 1-2 shots at close range, but it drops off extremely quickly. Ak-74 (once its added) - Aboit the same as the M4 but causses insain bleeding, broken bones abd unconscious, but drops off quicker. AKM/SKS (Once they're added) 1-2 shots at under 100m, 3 at 250. Shotguns - Pellets - 4-5 pellets need to hit to kill. - Slugs - 1-shotter at close range, but loses damage very quickly. 100m - 3-shot, 200m - 7 shot. That would be some good balancs but still keeping the game realistic, in my opinion, anyway.
-
Agreed
-
Drag tool/weapon over can, right click, select "open canned turds". I'm having no problems.

Was wondering about the FNX . I've been able to find 4-5 mags total in firestations but prior to that i was unable to load. I wasn't sure if i was doing it wrong or it was broken. Now i know i was doing it right after i found a Mosin. You can chamber up the 5 rounds using the "Load ammo" button over 7.62 ammo. Not sure about chambering the M4 as i haven't made it to Balota yet.
-
The Ductape is used for weapon modding (Tapeing a flashlight on, ect). Screwdrivers are used for opening cans. Still trying to figure out the rest, though

Mosin 1 hit kill? FNX 1 hit KO?
thedogfoodyayho replied to applejaxc's topic in New Player Discussion
The FNX can mess people up. I saw my friend one-woshot-knockout two people. As for actaul effectiveness at close quarters, i have to say (after using one) its difficult to hit anything, especially if its moving sideways. I think you could probably beat it with a Hatchet %50 of the time, though i haven't been in any fights with it yet. -
Sup? Been looking for a Rifle or Shotgun to bolster my Firepower for 6 Hours now. Anyone who has found one: What type of building and where in it did you find it? Houses seem to be home to Anti-Gun protesters... I know they're supposed to be Rare. So don't be Calling my a KoS noob.

Sit down for a few minutes and eat/drink. If thats not it it may be your Graphic settings

*Going to NWAF. Derp

I'm in one of those villages above the Kemenka to Balota area. Not finding much, though. Going to the coast. And i believe the New "Barracks" are called Military Dorms

Exactly In a real apocalypse your not going to find a hoard of Soda cans in every building you go in

First Player Encounter in DayZ
thedogfoodyayho replied to *Exile* Sami's topic in General Discussion
First: Tries to murder me with Hammer. I Responded with my Pistol Secound: Stares at me with Mosin from an Apartment, but holds his fire Third: sees me Outside Balota, Runs Fourth: 2 Guys with M4 and Pistol in the woods near kozlovka. They saw me, Waved, and kept Walking So yes. Much better. In the Mod those Guys with the M4 and the Mosin guy would have surely Popped me. Overall better, for now. -
I shot some guy at Prigigor-whatever becuase he was running at me with a hammer and wasn't afraid of my bullets flying over his head. One shot put him down. And also, he was mad that i defended myself. Thats the only guy that i killed. Everyone else saw me, and we went in other directions, so i can't say if this glitch is effecting me. But the knife seems useless, against zombies, anyway

I don't know what you guys are complaining about. Maybe join a lower pop server? I've had no problems yet. The vast amount of buildings means theres always a few nooks and cranies stuffed with Soda. Just look in every house, under the Tables, ontop the Cabinets, on the shelves, ect. The usaully loot the supermarket for a Week of food isn't going to work. 6-7 hours got me Fully suited out in Camoflauged shirt and hat with a Ballistic helmet, Resperator, Glasses, Combat boots, Pistol, and a bunch of food. Just loot the Townhouses in Cherno/Elektro. Very profitable, alongside the smaller cabins outside the cities. Only now that i'm heading inland am i running low on Soda
