I ran a little bit too north and saw this...

Not like I RAN LOOKING FOR IT.

thats called "folying" when you create your own sounds, bands from the 70s and 80s were very successful in doing this, in games, gun sounds are generated by adding flanger to already current gunshots from older games and tweaking them, this means they dont have to own a firearms licence to do it themselves

there is no difference between the damaged and the pristine version atm...

me and my friends were looting the military base beside vybor when i climbed a green watch tower and fell and broke my legs, and made a splint to fix myself, moments later i was shot in the back by a really long ranged sniper, so i ran for cover and contemplated running around to flank, when he shot me again as i tried to B Line it straight to the trees, then as my leg broke again, he shot me on the ground 3 more times to which i passed out, i lay there bleeding for 10 minutes, my first friend tried to get to me but he was hit once and he passed out (pussy). My other friend took a huge detour around to get the snipers who were on the red factory building in vybor, he tip toed up to the building, shimmied up the ladders and shot them both dead and took their long range scopes, including a 3rd which they were carrying, he then got to our bodies, 10 minutes later, he got to our bodies, bandaged me and my friend and salined bagged him but not me, i didn't wake up for 20 minutes but when i did i had a healing status and everything was black and white, this was the most punishment i've ever recieved, my helmet was ruined ,my vest was ruined, my pants were ruined, my axe was damaged, my gun was fine but the parts were damaged. And i logged out in the trees. holy shit my guy is a tank.

Yeah i did but alot of it was still fine, everything in my backpack was ok but everything else was destroyed.

Basically i have read tons of comments regarding wanting sniper rifles and the only way i'm sure that this can be balanced and made fun for all players is having to make players find their parts. Such as finding high power springs, recoil stocks and more powerful frames. Finding an AS50 is a load of ass considering it is a 1 hit kill so why should it do that from having to literally do nothing but server hop? It would also make an interesting crafting feature, much like putting a scope on a mosin, and grip to an M4, you should be able to find weapon boxes containing random parts for weapons meaning you can craft weapons that way... perhaps something like adding springs to existing rifles to make a more powerful mosin, or an m16 from an m4 with the required parts. It's really quite a big feature but wouldn't require loads of work considering that crafting already exists!! I just think that finding already over powered weapons is a bit stupid.

The actual shit is this?!

Em... im not very confident at speaking so for me its hard to speak to random players.

Duh i know what it is, i wish i could have recorded my reaction, nearly had a heart attack.

So me and a pal of mine where in a building and a guy spawns in above us armed with a pistol and fires at us, all we got is axes and we run to attack him but we keep hitting the roof?... we both got killed because of this, I know they are fixing the melee balance but are they going to fix the hitbox too?

A bullet travels faster than sound, So essentially in this game, as farfetched as it can be, (falling from 20M and survive), it's still got the engine of a military simulator, so if you want to even test, get a friend to fire a shot near you from about 500m away and you will hear the whizz, the bang, THEN the shot. So you are being shot by someone who is too far away for the shot to be heard.

I like the idea of spawning in herds, but think about it, peoples computers couldn't handle that... not even some of the great PCs designed for this kind of stuff could handle that, and there would be too much Desync. a decent thought but just a bit too farfetched atm.

woman you mean.

So i was at the NEAF with my friend on a 4-5 player server and i hear a gunshot in the distance whilst i was on top of the air control tower, so i climbed down the ladders and proceeded down the stairs to which it said you are dead, my body was found by my friend about 20 metres away in a field. And all of my gear ruined. what the hell happened to me? lol

Location-North East Airfield Time-7pm Team-7 including me Enemy-More than 10 So basically, i found my lovely first press vest at the boat, ran from there and met up with my pals at the NEAF. As soon as i arrived my pals were already in combat for 5 minutes with snipers, my pals had LR scopes as well but they were pinned and i approached from behind the hill and started scoping people out with my newly found M4 with CQB Scope and co. So i spot a few guys, pow pow, dead, and i run down to the runway, 4 guys just sitting outside the barracks and they open fire at me, i prone, get shot and i get up and run (press vest op) and i keep sprinting, team-mates fire, 1 guy down, 3 keep firing, 2 guys down, 2 keep firing and 2 of my pals are unconscious, meanwhile another clan of sorts approach from behind and open fire on us from behind, so we do our best to fight a war on 2 fronts whilst i'm trying to bandage my knocked out team mates and revive them. And the server goes down.. .So we sign back in to the server, nobody in sight, i'm out of m4 ammo and i reload my pistol and start heading into the barracks, i hear shots from upstairs, my friend will says "i'm being shot at help" So i went upstairs and saw a guy with his back to me shooting out of the window, pow, he's dead, and double tap to make sure. So there's me watching the stairs and a guy spawns in RIGHT BEHIND ME. and for a reason or 2 takes his machete out instead of his gun, and i fired at him and what happend. "Click" "Click". So i wopped out my Matchete and we hacked eachother to pieces until he passed out (press vess op). Then i ran down the stairs and there was a guy with a sawnoff right at the bottom who blasted me point blank and i passed out, and then he takes my press vest... then my teammate shoots him in the face, 3 of us are now dead and 2 are knocked out, and its just me and will having the fight of our lives at the bottom of the barracks camo building against snipers, i take my press vest back and run out to the forest, bang bang, shot again... M4 guy lone wolf just right there, i brap him with my pistol and he passes out, then i shoot him again, and he has a mosin with a LR scope on it , so as i start looting him i get hit by a blunt weapon, i turn around and there are 2 fucking bambis wielding wrenches and bats attacking me, and i ran down to the little river and my leg just gives way after the punishment and they smash me to death. it took me 35 minutes to get back to the fight and when i arrived man, there were bodies everywhere. alot of them just pissing with blood. I've never had anything like this happen to me but boy it was the funnest shit ive ever been in.

It was one of the guys spawning back in just like we did. On the server we were fighting on there were guys in the barracks upstairs.

Thanks ,the adrenaline flows while playing this game, having 6 friends to play with brings the survival experience to life.

These replies people are giving are useful but not exactly correct, A noob can be somebody who rushes an enemy with an axe and gets killed by an M4 A noob can be somebody who doesn't know the ship is glitchy A noob is somebody who accidently shoots their friend In true respect, the true example of a pro is somebody who can operate each weapon efficently, knows how to kill zombies and what melee weapon kills in one hit eg the fireaxe, if you are noob, you are probably trying to use a screwdriver or your fists to kill a zombie... never use anything other than an axe as up until the next patch axes are a one hit kill, the splitting axe is normally a 2 hit. Machetes are good at breaking player legs but anything other than that is a fail and shouldn't be used. As for pistols, the pistol can't shoot accurately after 50m so try not to use it after that, the magnum is 100m+. A noob would think that a primary weapon is always needed, false, sidearms are actually sought after more than rifles due to their faster fire rate, common ammo and concealment. A pro would say that all that is needed is good practice and play, now i'm not preaching here but earlier my 2 pals were shot unconscious by 1 guy in a red roofed barn, what did i have? no ammo for my m4 but had a pistol with no clip, but i remembered u can chamber rounds, so i actually chambered a round into it and shot him through a gap in the stairs in the head, a noob wouldn't know you can do this. The same goes for the M4 and no clip. a noob would also try find gear that looks cool, note that all gear you find will protect you against bullets, some more than others, eg a bike helmet looks bad but protects more than a beret, if a player wears a beret it's because they are either cocky enough that they wont get shot, or that they want to look as thin as possible when prone, that is a pro sense, a pro sense isn't just wearing a beret for the look, that is a noob sense. same as not taking the bulky mountain backpacks and instead creating your own because they are small and green, that is a pro sense, deploying your bipod in a firefight is a pro sense, given that you know you are safe, there are many things you can do that are noob but that doesn't mean you are inexperienced, you can misjudge a shot by 50m or accidently fall off ledges. The main thing that draws the line between pro and noob, is what you do when you spawn -Spawn on Beach-Quick Glance around-Know where you are-Run to a destination, not a random direction- Find a familiar high loot building- Are the doors open? Is it worth checking anyway?- Ignore Closed door cabins, No loot spawns- Learn what items look like so you can peer your eyes in and spot things such as sticks and burlap sacks, create your own backpack.-Find a river or pond and drink from it, try and get some food in houses you know have loot, such as green 2 story piano buildings- Find a military base or airfield, are the gates and doors open? If they are, stick around for a while and take your time, if you are a fresh spawn, the best thing to do is do it quick and clean, run into the barracks and glance, in and out, if you have gear you should take your time, due to the fact that being shot on sight is a higher mentality for a player with a backpack and some moderately nice clothing. -Spot an armed player, Run.-Getting shot at? Put weapon away and run zig zag. the list goes on and on.

Your character will be WIPED, when you try and rejoin a restarted server almost instantly, this is a sure way to get your chara deleted if it is stuck but also be careful as i just lost a well looted character when playing with friends. :)

Flies around corpses DayZ Ambient Soundtrack player death notifications Now, before anybody says, there hasn't been any mention of these from the DEVs, however, a player did mention the music thing and most people said no, they don't want music, however, if you were to think about the other people, putting music in is keeping everybody happy, as for the players who do not wish to have it on, can just turn it off right?, so it should go in regardless. As for flies around corpses, this should be implemented for many reasons, if the bodies are going to disappear, the flies should stay for at least 20 minutes to show that a player has died, other than that, it helps people locate dead bodies. And for death notifications, it lets players know if they are successful in killing someone but also lets players know if there is alot of deaths happening, which is an indication of how quiet a server is... it also means that you know when a teammate has died.

lol, to make a rage about desync is pretty stupid, it's nothing to do with the game, it's the server, the game doesn't let you perform actions because the database hasn't received your message yet, much like when you get a dead foot and you can't move it for a bit, the signal cannot reach it and therefore some actions can't be performed, this happens on other games, much like in call of duty when you throw a grenade it doesn't throw, why do you rage about an unfinished game with a lower bar set?

There's also the "Spaoooooooow............................ Spaowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww"

Funny that you mention the "DUNN CHH DUNN CHHH DUNNN CHHH", I know exactly what one you are referring to, whoever wrote the music was a stone cold genius.

I was thinking that, but if you also remember that time you probably shot somebody that shot at you first, and you assumed they died and you held off because you didn't know... and then bang... you dead.
