    The medieval sword?

    Somehow for some 10 maces I only seem to find 1 or 2 swords. I've been lucky on Skalisty island, but, it's still all a matter of luck. Safe travels.

    Post Your Gear So Far

    Did one last little play through today on experimental 0.59 as I like the short period of time when Stable and Experimental have the same build, and you can easily switch between both branch and characters. This is what I had in the end. Details:

    VSS Is A Beast Weapon

    Still needs some work as most weapons with selectable fire can't use their feature. (IE: The MP5. Since it was implemented, you still can't change it's firing mode.) It will be much better with semi-auto fire and 20 round mags. ;)

    When generosity rewards good karma in return

    Experimental have always been overall better in terms of non-hostile interactions and encounters. But, it varies greatly from player to player.
  7. :thumbsup: That's some great interactions and random team up. Pretty funny how he seem to "lose" his weapon often. :lol:

    I am slowly warming up... slowly and frequently.

    With the new ui, those messages will be a thing of the past. But most importantly for me, we'll be able to turn off the hud too. :thumbsup: "Second very important screen is HUD overlay, which as you noticed with latest 0.59 experimental we started to implement. However this is completely different story to tell but I can assure you it will be possible to toggle on demand so it will not occlude your view if you looking for maximum immersion as possible." B)
  10. The master of hold ups, Sobieski, would agree, and like this post. :thumbsup: Same applies to me. (Although I don't really hold-up players, and have a non-threatening play style anyway... But I agree 100%, it's better than no interaction at all.)

    Post Your Gear So Far

    Personally, I'd take a Blaze over the VSS any day, but like you said, I had to check it out/test it! B) I'll try and take shots of my 1PP, which is very different. Hoping to get some game time tonight, but that might not be possible with Fallout 4... :P

    Post Your Gear So Far

    3PP experimental 0.59 I like the modifications they did to the -newui menu, but the -newui itself is still horrible compared to the current in-game ui. Personal opinion, for sure. (I secretly hope they stick with the old ui, it works great and looks simple, yet efficient.) Details of the gear.

    0.59: All New Enterable Buildings

    Wow!! I had seen all the others, but I had no idea about the "corner house". I love it. The yellow church is probably one of my favorite buildings now, looks terrific. I had always been waiting for it. Thanks for the shots! :thumbsup:

    Oak tree location? Black leather sack?

    Looks like this.

    Charater gone

    Did you join the same server? Was your character a 3PP public? 1PP public? Or a private hive character?? All private hives are separate, so you need to join the same server, or one connected to the same hive to be able to play as the same character. Same thing applies to 3PP public and 1PP public, both branches are separate. There's a roaming bug out there where the server has problem connecting to the central hive to retrieve character info, but that only occurs rarely. (Or frequently for some, but personally, after 1576 hours in-game, this bug only occurred a few times back around 0.40 build...)

    Oak tree location? Black leather sack?

    You need a barrel, nails and the leather sack to change it's color to "black". (It's more brown than black really...) Put the sack and nails in the barrel, close it and dye it. Voilà.

    "Warning" Exp 0.59 Broken / Jamming AK's - SKS work around

    Very interesting stuff there! Been testing out the new 0.59 experimental since it came out, but didn't get any problems with any weapon used, but didn't get around to find a mag for the AKs I found. I used chambered 1911, FNX, Sporter (didn't have any mags for those at first) and loaded Repeater, Magnum and Trumpet. Found a mag for the 1911 a little bit later, and both the 10rnd and 30rnd sporter mags, and tested both with any problems. But, that being said, the method to correctly load weapons that don't have mags, and can use clips, is by putting the ammo in the action bar, and while holding the weapon in your hands, pressing the assigned number for the ammo in the action bar. You'll get the loading animation and the white message top right corner of the screen confirming it's loaded. (info is red when the weapon's not loaded) You still don't see the ammo in the weapon, but it's loaded anyway. Lastly, there's some glitches with the new loading system as it's not finished and not polished, but in any case it's better to chamber weapons that need mags first now, as it seem to help out with the jamming. You'll notice that every time you put a mag in any gun, one round get's chambered automatically and is removed from the mag. Although the mag you found said it was pristine, since you found it on a dead player it might not have registered the damage. It's experimental after all, and I seen all kinds of wacky and weird stuff these past 3 days. Thanks for sharing!! :thumbsup:

    0.59- Shout out to a Hero in Chernobyl!

    :thumbsup: Nice! Although I doubt he'll ever see this. P.S. : "Cherno" doesn't stand for "Chernobyl" but "Chernogorsk" ;)
  20. It means that the server had difficulties connecting to the central hive, and could not retrieve your character. You can quickly exit the server you're in, go back to the main menu, select a different server.(Make sure it's connected to the same hive public 1PP or 3PP, or private servers, although it rarely happens on private servers.) You'll get your character back. Happened to me at least 50 times since this exists, but not recently. Been about 5 or 6 months since I last experienced this. P.S.: No need to alt-f4 really.

    DayZ Standalone Exploration (VIDEO)

    Pretty cool video, but that fresh spawn snipe at the start took out some seriousness. I have to agree with Volcanogod, I started laughing pretty bad too. :lol:
  22. Great videos dude! :thumbsup:
