Did I miss something or is it still v1.7.2.4 ?
daddydustin replied to Oerlinator's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Never expect a update to be "on time" -
Same, I also seen a zombie get aggroed on me crouch walking from about 50m and no other zombie aggroed on me though. I actually like it, gives me more of a reason to be more sneaky.
-
To me, the whole entire map is beauty in its own. Its really hard to find friendlies ingame these days (probably cause side chat was removed from the mod), but if you would like you can add me on steam and play with me and maybe some of my friends. My steam name is "DW.DaddyDustin"

Tents made of wood and branches
daddydustin replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Its a good idea yes, but the only problem is that everyone would spam these in the woodland and then you have unlimited tents basically. Unless they can put a limit on how many you can do in one server. -
Happened to my friends before, just stay on after picking something up for at least 5-10 minutes. It seems to work then

Cant update to new version.
daddydustin replied to Bashful Llama's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
The 1.6295417 is the patch for Arma 2 and the 1.7.2.4 is DayZ. Try and reinstalling your battle eye program. Also try and only join servers that have both patches for Arma and DayZ -
You really have to watch over Military tents, office buildings, fire houses, city halls, and schools in the coast line cities.
-
For Berez, try and get a little bit behind a treeline and a slope in sight of the military tents. Not sure if its a good area that attracts players. Berez isn't the best place to snipe people
-
Only chat that is good is direct coms, but the thing is you have to be somewhere of 100m or closer to the guy to hear a player talk or what a player types

ARMA 2 Real Life Hiking Simulator
daddydustin replied to Jourmand1r's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Your the one complaining about a mod for a game thats not completed. You don't like it, don't play the damn mod. And I totally meant that I'm surviving a zombie apocalypse in real life, yes I go around with an axe killing some bandits and some survivors taking there beans. Fun times -
ARMA 2 Real Life Hiking Simulator
daddydustin replied to Jourmand1r's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Do you think the people that lived in that house before would leave food, guns, clothes trying to escape the infected. Trying to get away trying to survive. Then what about the people who loots houses trying to survive as well. BTW this is a mod for a completely different game, you can't just change code for a game as easy as you think. This is why Rocket is trying to get this game as a standalone so he has his own code, his own game, not just a mod. I never said the game isn't hard, I said that its not supposed to be easy. I think it is not hard enough as I said before. Yes the game is buggy because the mod is not finished. Yes there will be a bandit sniper in ever city to grab other players shit they worked hard for. Its just another obstacle in this mod you have to overcome. I have been on that road by getting killed by bandits every day for about a month from getting the game. You just have to adapt to the game and your enemy snipers -
ARMA 2 Real Life Hiking Simulator
daddydustin replied to Jourmand1r's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If the map had more enterable buildings, then it should be more easier on us to get things like food and equipment. If you don't like the game, don't play it. Plus the mod is in a zombie "APOCALYPSE," you should find nothing in most buildings anyway. The game is not supposed to be easy, and to tell you the truth, I don't think it is hard enough. You would be complaining even more if we had this mod on Takistan just because it has a lot of enterable buildings, you would be looking even more in one town and barely finding anything just because you are in an apocalypse. -
My friend and I can't join the same server
daddydustin replied to 2yysforyou's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
You might have to refresh, make sure the name is specific for the filter "in game." Try Siz Launcher and regular Arma sever search. I have had the same problem about 3 hours ago actually -
I don't think you become a "Bandit" unless you kill a certain amount of players in a given time. I'm not sure how you become a bandit in terms of the game itself, but I would have done the same thing in your position. Calling out "friendly?" or something along those lines and if he doesn't respond or tries to look at me, I'll blast away.

Me and buddies were riding in the Hatchback, we were trying to go pick up a friend and get medical supplies in Berez all the way from Vybor area. We get to Stary, and all hell breaks loose. We get ambushed by what we thought was 3 guys. The tires go first as the car stops right after, we all get out and hit the ground as fast as we can. 2 of my buddies already dead at this point. I hide behind the hatchback with my M16 M203. My other friend just jetted to the treeline, which is what I should have done as well, but lets continue this. I see this guy appear from the treeline slowly coming up to the car, thinking the other guy ran away and they also got me. So happens that a zombie comes up right behind him and starts beating him, he then turns around starting to bleed as he takes out the zombie and another one that almost started to hit him. He starts to patch himself up, I sprung up from behind the car and blast him with about 5 rounds around the chest area and he goes down immediately. I quickly go back prone scanning the treeline where he came from for more survivors. My friend that ran towards the treeline slowly takes position where he can also watch my flanks. He sees one guy slowly coming up to my right and takes him out with a M14. One of my other friends that didn't hitch a ride to go get supplies was on his way with a DMR and heading towards our area with a bike to make sure that if we all die, he we pick them off as they are looting our bodies or fixing the car. After the last kill my friend got, it went silent in the area, no gunfire or any movement for about a minute or two. I wanted to make it to the treeline with my friend, so I threw a smoke right next to me and tried to make it to the treeline after about 5 seconds. The gunfire started again as I got hit in the leg and I believe in the chest cause I had a broken leg and I went unconscious. After a few minutes of waiting, I regained consciousness and got shot again and died. My friend then ran off from the treeline to get away from the area. My friend with the DMR then makes it to the area where we got ambushed at, and seen 2 of them, one in the car I guess checking the parts they needed and maybe gas. He quickly goes prone kinda in the wide open, and blasts away the guy looting the bodies and then the guy in the car. My treeline friend and the DMR friend meets up and gets the car working again and quickly brings it back to base. Me, my 2 friends that died, and the friend that was already at berez met up at the hospital and raided the town a bit. We followed the powerlines out of the city, and went all the way back, at yours truly, Stary. Guess who gets ambushed this time, with a vehicle of their own. They had it right by the powerlines behind a bush. We quickly spread out among other bushes trying to get every angle at the Ural (with the top on it.) 5 guys come from the tents about 10 minutes later, 3 of them with the starter backpack, right before they got to the car, we opened fire ripping them apart. One of them tried ditching it straight to the tents again and I shot him in the legs making him crawl towards the tents. I told my friends to stop firing at the guy, as I saw zombies just about to swarm the place since my friend from Berez had a M14 and aggroed a bunch of them. They targeted on the lone guy as they started to beat on him to death. We immediately looted two bodies and got in their Ural and jetted out. Okay maybe the guy getting beaten to death then the zombies ate him was a bit untrue, had to added a bit of flavor to it xD. He did get eaten though by 2 zombies after he died from one of my friends I guess.

Not really that I know of, the only people that play during night is pretty much the people who either are gathering items, cars, and people who have NVG. I personally would like to play during the day for servers, but if I want to have an adventure or horror moments. I would play during the night.
-
Never had this happen to me, but this is one of the reasons why you have at least one other person to play with. Always have medical supplies between one another. To me the game is not fun playing by yourself. I love the plan of surviving together with friends or friends you make over the forums. There is always the option of asking the medic clan they have here on the forums.

If I'm not mistaken, it takes about 5 to 20 minutes of blinking before your health (blood) starts going down. A nice thing to do is find some food, and only eat it when your hunger starts blinking. Same with thirst, it goes all the way back up to 100%.
-
Oh yeah, DayZ the Slenderman survival game, even though they already have a game like that. Totally worth the effort of putting it in the game and use all the time on that than fixing bugs and making DayZ a standalone or port over to ARMA3. Not to be a douche or anything but its a retarded idea

I have a group, but they are not on right now, but I can play
-
Me and a friend are looking for a few people to play with. We already played a few days already, survived a small bandit group in Chern. We use Skype to talk but add me on steam first and so we can hurry and find each other and survive this apocalypse together. We are playing in about 30 minutes to an hour. Steam: Daddy Dustin
