    Concretely: what differs the pro from the noob?

    Teach the guy to walk before he can run.. Basics the control of situations will only come with experience way to may possibilities to talk about encounters. Some basic survival so he can gather his gear and learn for himself while he is armed how to try to deal with the encounters...
  2. Ah missed you had been typing best tip ever never type to talk get a mic will save your life and id just hit enter to finish what i was typing ( although i never type you cant run your dead meat.... That and guys like me who do play sort of friendly , i stalk and when i have advantage i declare myself chat and decide what sort of player you are if you have no mic its a shoot in the head for me no mic means no interaction which means your here to kill so i do it first...

    Looting on low population servers

    Picking a low pop server makes you a lazy player lazy players die easily .... What do i mean well when there is no one on you feel safe comfortable so you move in the open dont watch your ass so when you eventually run into that other player you are seen your un prepared you usually die.. Playing high pop trains you by death after death to play like there is going to be someone , scope an area out before cruising in to loot . Watch for movement stay off roads ( stay near them and on the high side when your newish gives you view of the road and eyes in the distance... To many players gearing on low pop then throwing themselves in high pop to pvp do it all in high pop the experience is more rewarding and it teaches you better habits...
  4. dont use esc use your hot bar to pull your axe out set weapons to the first few keys 1,2,3 depending on what how many you have keep axe in hand if you feel the need to offer help to those begging but honestly unless your trying to make a team mate dont bother keep on running if he follows axe him. If you are trying to make him a team mate well then the decisions just got alot harder and only experience will fix that ( even then its a gamble... Edit welcome to Dayz ps dont go shouting friendly its a noob thing to do and generally gets you shot if you communicate sound confident and reasuring not weak by going i am friendly dont shoot, a weak player is no use to anyone...

    Concretely: what differs the pro from the noob?

    The obvious answer of a noob as anyone knows at short range the zeroing makes little to no difference at all aim center mass at standard 0(which is usually set to 100 m) many of the longer posts are pretty good in the thread. Except the guy saying to try your luck on the edge of electro huh 50/50 what a load crap head inland where ever you spawn head inland you will find plenty of water look for ponds streams etc the food will sort itself out when you get to the first town inland... Any one telling you to follow the coast at all when your not experienced is giving you bad advice 3/4 of the players stay on the coast why because there either noobs or there killing noobs ( the odd helpfull experienced guy but not worth the chance...)
  6. Persistant storage is being worked on now it is coming in the form of back pack that can be hidden ( no word on tents) but the persistant back packs will hit experimental in next couple weeks..

    Is Dayz over?

    Indeed the game has true survival aspects which are growing day by day this sets it apart from many zed games the sandbox nature of the zed experience.. Has the idea now been copied hmm maybe and will it be so again in the future possibly. Edit the beans are for the aussie actor in ya profile pic... Plus commando is a classic..
  8. It does have one advantage though if you stalk some one the text message is not directional like voice in direct is....
  9. Ah but we are foriegners there and seeing the new super smooth animation of the bat swinging actually looks like swinging a baseball bat now and throwing with physics it would be possible to do it .. The devs make the tools we come up with crazy ways to use them .. Hello sandbox..
  10. Serious question ??? solid state drive... I prefer to run Dayz of ram disk even faster than a SSD but yeah no fps gain just super smooth texture loading no pop ups no stutters..
  11. What the there is no global chat ...( your a huge defender of dean and the game and dont know this????? Edit that sounded harsh i am just surprised that you didnt a try it yourself or read where dean doesnt want it , it is supposed to be a tense gritty place not get spammed by there bandits in electro being dicks followed by we got you fag(@*&!...

    Ok so now what?

    These try it on a full server not on a empty one easy to get loot on .. Ps try not to get killed by the freshies that your trying to help and befriend...
  13. places like black lake etc will have huge traffic going through it did find a nice small not to small body water on the left side where i shall call home ( think it will be big enough for fish there a deer stand not to far away so i assume game around not that far from town but in a direction no one goes....
  14. North will be crowded id hit south west the left side of the map is quite open and bare and not heavily traveled..

    DayZ Behind the scenes, Studio Tour

    Please there is alot of trolling going on and i know your trying to point that out but do you think trolling yourself and fanning flames will make it better or worse??? Show some of that intellect you were calling for in ya know which thread.. Good to see a decent sized team at it and a few sneaky glimpses there ( good eyes i never spotted them )

    beards and stuff

    Sadly the devs have said to hard to grow a beard ( well to much work for 1/2 the character types) Iwas sad to hear there is only 15 faces total planned i hope they allow add ons to it like adding a beard moe side burns etc just to break it up more.. Although i am sure modders like well i know i will make more faces MORE..

    Post your clever joke names for DayZ!

    Hmm nothing funny in this but seriously deans ideas are good but his naming is well rather bland i know it will always be Dayz but i would have called it END OF DAYZ. (end of days with a zzz sound..) but hey often i have called it ZED boxing 2014, eating simulator... or from my many falls from bloody stairs OH FUCK I BROKE MY LEG crawling to die simulator... (never said i was clever or funny but i do break my leg alot..)

    Would you report this kid?

    Slightly confused on this post they try to run a pve server ( yeah which aint currently allowed) but you tell them to go back to COD doesnt sound like something a COD player would do ( a pve server??) and speed scripts so thats a hack not really an admin power..

    Settings for DayZ to get better frames

    Im still amazed you manage to get 5.2 out of that cpu lol shit i use a liquid cooling rig and a portable aircon blasting at my pc and i dont take my 4770k anywhere near that high .( then again standard air temps here are around the 40 c so its rather hot and i am a sissy i know i can get 5ghz out of mine but i just hold back lol ...

    Would you report this kid?

    Sounds like an ESP hack to me as for the global chat thing hmm thats a new one admins can only set a server log in message ( which some times they will play games with when they know guys are constantly server hopping in ( the whole itchy crotch or i can see you etc etc)

    anyone having desync issues?

    The desync is attributed to having a very large amount of items on you eg are you carrying multple carry boxes ammo boxes med kits??? the server has to ping info to you constantly in check of these items and as such creates a back log of info packets causing desync... The same goes when you try to play near anyone who has such a huge item list ( if your anywhere in the network buble. This is one of the fixes coming soon a single item check from server so it wont cause this back log of info packets and hopefully free us of desync ( which can be avoided if again you play with far less containers or near people who do ...

    What's going on with canteens on stable now?

    perhaps they have just been rebalanced to carry less water( or us have larger drinks) as now you mention it i do remember a few patches ago getting 5 drinks out of a bottle... Still not seeing the problem at all really???
