Odysseus (DayZ)

As frequently as the servers desync on me, a suspension of the timer on disconnections (not exits) might be a good idea. Generally if I get booted for a connection loss. I just call it a night rather than wait four or five minutes.

The kind that never makes it to a full release...

Good to know I am not the only one that resorts to different voices and accents to intimidate and or entertain. If you are confronted by a deep southern accent, raspy Batman, Jabba, Watto, Yoda, E.T., homosexual drill sergeant, African American female survivalist, old man from India who converted to Christus after the Zombies because of a misunderstood text, chemist with unappreciated puns who attempts to impress random players with completely broken and untrue cooking mechanics in-game, or the Indian war chief who runs, hammer in hand, at new spawns on the beach while raising the warcry (get it? Like you're a pilgrim?)... You've met one of my characters. Please don't put me on youtube without sharing the link.

Stay away from ladders, stairs, and platforms greater than eight inches in height.

Started roaming around gathering tool for being a medic. Red construction helmet and red mountain bag and red combat boots. This should add a whole new purpose to the game. Fun times.

Where did you hear that? Doesn't look like a suppressor to me.

Get a job, slackers.

Please don't bump.

I somehow glitched onto the shipwreck with nothing but briefs and a wife beater. Also managed to break my leg when teleported... I looked below, to suicide jump, and saw three dudes unawares of me. I jumped at them... it was hilarious. Everyone laughed.

Will be enjoyable if it isn't stocked with military stuff. Should be loaded with general goods and zombies.

Fellow Nord. I feel like a king when I find two cans of beans in one garage.

Thinking about becoming a medic in-game once my thesis is more or less wrapped up in real-life. Is there any standard kit or semi-official uniform you medics are wearing? Bright colors? Hats? Suggestions?

Not very friendly to those of us who play without sound, or some others who live without sound.

In real life, an M4 can be slipped into a backpack fairly easily... breaks down into upper and lower pieces. Would be cool if you could do that in the game, but it'd need assembly before use, obviously. Wouldn't take more than five seconds, really.

Just like in real life, if you take the guns away from the civilized people --- only the barbarians will have them.

Taking breaks from my thesis I have migrated from Svetlo to the suicide ship and back. I enjoy spotting people and watching what they do - moving deeper inland is usually quite boring once you've fully kitted out with 30 cans of beans.

I don't mind bandits at all, in fact I think their presence, so long as it is counter weighted by guys like me, adds a much needed quality of realism to the game.

I get his point, though, about not wanting to micromanage the horse. Traveler is sick. Traveler is thirsty. Traveler is hungry. Now I need horse pills, horse feed, horse vitamins, horse shoes, horse bits, horse reins, saddle, nails, purify the horse trough, etc. lol

Hmm. Read Carl Sagan... or listen to geniuses on DayZ standalone forum. :emptycan:

No thanks!

Are broken limbs the most common issue, thus far? I've got a spare box and I was thinking of loading it with supplies for the most common injuries.

Settlements = Raids

Cannot understand the people who say "no" to something that they aren't interested in, that in no way changes their experience if someone else has it. Maybe I'm a libertarian.

Woah, you didn't research this at all, did you? There's a shotgun, Mosin, M4, SKS, .45, .357, and I believe a 2-shot 7.62 rifle.

This might explain why, one time, I found an M4 with all pristine accessories just laying in the middle of an empty room.
