there are tons of blood testing kits now with that medical centre and the cell roomed barracks building both frequently spawning them.

i havent gotten a response from a dead guy in the last 2 patches maybe it is fixed maybe they just hit respawn or quit instantly after dying ( or didnt have a mic) I dont kill alot of guys as i am not big on kos but we did have that 1 patch for what 6 weeks?

Last dead guy i had a convo with was 2 patches ago and during that patch i had a few chats with guys i had killed ( yes i made sure they were dead by putting that extra bullet in the head but they could still use direct voip..

LOL they share the kos mentality because your on one of 2 distinct sides or a 3rd kill everyone side the game scores your kills deaths and you get money to buy equipment from killing people it is its very idea of the game to death match in the wastland mod eg its very different from Dayz. Oh the other plus side to arma and its mods (wastland being one of the more popular game modes) is you get to play on alot of different maps including modder made maps (which are often better than BIS maps)

Well if the only thing your seeking is combat with a large array of weapons vehicles using proper military tactics than yes i would say play some arma. Its not alot like BF or CoD as its a mil simulator sandbox . I have over 400 hours clocked on arma 3 and nearly 2000 on arma 2 ( thats not counting hours playing dayz mod. For a purist pvp experience id say arma is hard to beat Dayz unlike many peoples beliefs was never intended as a pure pvp deathmatch (so many play it like it is ) its always ment to have PvP but to many it is all it is and i wonder why on earth are they not playing arma with the inclusion of mods there is hundreds of guns more than 100 vehicle types easily ( never actually counted them all). Lots of very active clans hiting up the PvP scene hard and they are pretty full on first thing i notice when i am playing with people in dayz if they call out a bandit its like there over there by that tree ( like that helps) as in arma they are calling out degrees or clock there precise because they play hard they play to win . Very different experiences i love my dayz ( i am hoping it becomes the survival game it was always ment to be) but i still love my arma calling out and laser designating targets for team mates to do bombing runs in planes ,combing the hills for mines trying to avoid heavy armour while sneaking on a base to c4 a a radio tower etc...

I agree with the loot being spawned on character presence (500m of character) but with zombies they need to say keep the level of persistant zeds they have now so that when you scope down on a city/town you cant tell if a player is there by seeing zeds. But to gain the extra amount of zeds needed to up the difficulty anti a bit they should spawn extra zeds of character presence , with the reduced load of loot not always being there it should give them enough server stability to crank things up. It would be as easy to do as it was in the mod as the base engine is still the same for the most part although spawning of character was done by script and they are trying to remove script commands if they leave script commands in then it allows hackers an easier job of hacking, in a perfect world of no hackers the method i prescribed would be the best but as it stands one can only guess where they will milk enough optimization to get everything in they want and mostly keep hackers out....

yeah fix the clipping walls ,3x there number ,change there agro proerties to alow sneaking and change there respawn to being 500m from location of death rather than right in the thick of it again and they will be perfect.. But yes compared to the limp background distraction they were before they are awesome..

perhaps it caused to much loot and strained the server i was always a believer they should make every place spawn or have a chance to spawn loot but reduce it across the board so the economy of loot stays the same but the dispersion of it is spread making looting take longer having to check every building and room..

hmmm my fire axe was pristine but the paint i was using was badly damaged maybe that had something to do with it??

yeah exactly how it took my mate 1 shot bang head and dead. The problem was while we didnt know he was there he had time to aim said head shot at an un moving target once postion was given away he couldnt replicate the shot on a moving target ( he did hit my chest and ruin my nice biege jacket that matched my biege cowboy hat lol) but one well placed sks shot centre mass from 15 m saw an end to him ( he was out cold not dead but i picked up his .22 and gave him that head shot ...) so again brave but not smart fight the battles you can win back away from those your odds are slim staying alive is the name of the game not who can kill the most before dying..

hmmm why is it when i spray paint my fire axe it doesnt become that black or is that the splitter axe??

Its not the size that counts its how you use it LOL my mate just got taken out with a .22 pistol was a brave brave bandit alone hiding shooting at 3 guys. Brave but not very smart as he did not last long but have to give him props for the takedown with a .22 pistol i never would have tried it ...

Nope its not it has been in the standalone since the day it launched( well atleast one of them has maybe they have dotted more around the map but i doubt it..

Damn it must be a good connection to get no desync with that style packing in packing lol ( they havent done the one check of items yet so your bandwidth must be off the chain... Yeah the fact that zeds respawn in such close proximity does suck there should say a minute delay on respawn or perhaps a spawn 600m from your location as i have literally run along killing zed after zed that just kept spawning in my direct path..

Dayz loot spawn is an evil bitch when you want something it will not be there when you dont want it its in every spot. Example my last character needed a mag for his pistol and i found 0 but wow did i find alot of sticks. This character i decided to just go with the magnum and i have found 5 fnx mags 3 cr75 mags and no sticks and why do i mention sticks because this time i decided to go the more wild man look of having the improvised back pack ....

wow this thread went down hill fast oh ps i believe grimey rick is a crane driver i have worked in the construction industry alot of years ( i now send other to do the work for me lol) and i have found most crane drivers to be a special breed they are the trolls of the construction world ( australian ones you cant get nothing done unless you bribe them with beer..)

bags not playing anywhere near your character the desync would be enormous. Hmm couplke that with the zeds new speed no wonder your not enjoying it there hitting when your sop desynced but you dont even know it....

sounds pretty accurate to me well apart from the fact they run on tiny 9v batteries lol..

keep there speed and there high hit damage double there number atleast but fix them so they cant clip walls and make them so its possible if your carefull and crawl sneak past them ( not in there view of course but if not in line of sight (which should be reduced a little). That will give us a fun dangerous but managable if your smart zed apoc...

I am enjoying zeds more now they just need to fix the clipping walls and make them so your able to sneak past them and double or more there number and we got a zed apoc lol.. strange I have gained 5 or more frames hitting the mid 80s in the wild and low to mid 40 in cities.. I do believe it has reset you profile file though so for those who have had to tweak it to get performance go check this file and redo you view distance etc..

i actually prefer that you have to raise the weapon now to attack with it makes sense you raise an axe to swing it plus it adds the semi un threatening position of having your weapon lowered . you cant shoot guns till you raise them you cant punch unless you put your hands up i say if it wasnt intended leave it like that anyway .

Ah ok cheers was trying to avoid the airfields lol was hoping to find one in the many office buildings and mostly police stations but guess not ill have to head to an airfield 8( apart from those mags no reason to go there got my sks pu scope a press vest and a wooly jacket lol. Survival in the airfield is a much harder prospect ... But seriously irish you cant find food i am seeing so damn much of it its not funny have 4 cans tactical bacon 3 peaches 2 beans 1 spagetti 2 tuna 2 sardines 2 bags of rice and a tomato i kept cause its so damn big its like a county fair prize winner ,( not to mention all the cans of drink )

Strange i am running around with a mounttain back pack 3/4 full of food and a stuffed stomach from every other food and drink i find along the way . Now cz75 mags thats abother story cant find 1 of those lol..

I so love internet tough guys , this guy is the classic dork who gets picked on his entire life, then he finds power at a key board on a game forum way to go champ ylour really showing them now :facepalm: If the value of your contribution to the thread is basicly insults and passive agressive bull shit might as well get stepping son because if your adding 0 then that pretty much somes up your worth over all to the thread.. By all means be constructive in your critque of something but your just throwing bombs at people for nothing i here by change your name from dayz friendly to dayz tosser..

Been playing BIS games since OFP but then i am rather old compared to your usual gamer (41) its been a long enjoyable ride and i still love my arma but i am glad they are moving the gamee to a more survival feel than a large map death match with super soliders and zeds running around in the back ground.... Although there are a few things i wished they had kept from arma namely sway rather than dispersion for guns ( much better way to balance a weapon in said average joes hands as it simulates him/her not being skilled at aiming because once they aim right the bullet should hit at what there aiming ( dependant on range and zeroing ofcourse. The proper use of focus/zoom both full focus in and out when aiming as i find it a pain that when in a building i have focus/zoom in cutting my peripheral for checking corners. Lastly i feel the pain of having now spent more than 400 hours of arma 3 ( with mods to use modern rather than future weapons lol) of not having the incremntal stances i mean it feels so restricted to return to the simple stand crouch prone system i so miss being able to adjust my stance .....
