Persistent Container AKA Tents? coming next update
soulfirez replied to punkvegita's topic in General Discussion
SO he told the same guy the same info he had told him a couple days earlier only this time specified back pack meh never saw that video hey i did say i didnt know what he would use just that video he didnt say back pack lol. Still seems left field for me but hey storage is storage time to hunt for a back pack drop it then get a normal one again i guess lol.. -
Persistent Container AKA Tents? coming next update
soulfirez replied to punkvegita's topic in General Discussion
when in the stream does he say its a back pack maybe i missed it the part i saw he said persistant container, i watched it all but hey i could have missed it ... yeah when in the army i left my backpack behind true but i wasnt then intending ongetting another one to wear around.. you generally use a back pack to carry gear more often extra items would be stored in special wraps that were water tight didnt degrade were easily wrapped tight to fit in pack and could be buried Edit in my days in the australian army (which granted was early to mid 90s) we called them slap bags Edit 2 a few of my mates were put up on charges for storing ammo in them rather than carrying on long hikes for simple non combat exercises lol who wanted to carry 8 kilos of ammo in 45 + celecius heat through an arid zone in the middle of no where when you werent ever going to fire a shot... -

soulfirez replied to punkvegita's topic in General Discussion
the fact that you drop a back pack to pick up a special one that you drop for persistant storage and then go back and get a normal back pack...... Again not saying it isnt but in the stream he said container ( which may be literal or it may just mean any item thats holds something like a tent) a man who built the game from an original idea of just a survival game (before adding zombies) with mil training seems wierd he would hide his back pack to get another one to carry around rather than something he could put in or attach to his back pack.... -

soulfirez replied to punkvegita's topic in General Discussion
It seems strange it would be a back pack (not saying it isnt i dont know ) i could think of several containers that would make more sense like a tent but hey maybe he is trying to avoid tent even though it is what he added to dayz mod originally?? Just doesnt seem logical though so i drop my normal back pack to carry a special one that i drop for persistant storage?? and then what i hike back to where i dropped my original back pack??? rather than something like a tent which could be tied to the bottom of a back pack in a collapsed form.... I know Dean is creative but just sounds straight out of left field is all ... -

Anyone else been alive since you got DayZ?
soulfirez replied to DayzForumer's topic in General Discussion
lol 64man experimental servers have only been around a few days and you have survived that long in them lol yeah right..... -
It has been expressed by the devs once development is done they will aid modders with info and MAYBE some tools to help them produce maps for dayz trust me if you have played arma and tried the mods the comunity make nicer maps lol( many have been done for dayz mod)... If you have ever played the lingor map something like that may be the jungled city style you ask for although a little small at around 40 square km so a larger version of this.... Honestly check what modders have made for arma 2 there some epic maps

How many Women play this game and what do you think about it?
soulfirez replied to PsyStormZ's topic in General Discussion
ah yes ok i get the picture wow way to stereo type your own sex there dayzgirl... im sure while running for your life from zeds, bandits, facing hunger the cold weather your going to worried about wearing a tight fitting shorter skirt with boots. I dont KOS but i would seeing that cause your going to freeze to death so it would only be a kindness( and i mean literally freeze when the weather effects come in as rocket has suggested... -

soulfirez replied to DayzForumer's topic in General Discussion
hopefully not once server numbers rise and food levels ( even when respawning comes in ) getting lower it will push more people north not to mention hunting and fishing the cities will be over populated for food resources.. Then ill hopefully see more in my back yard.. had a few encounters at zelengorsk though and green mountain.. plus got pinned in a camo tower at the nwaf was lucky to walk away from that one... -
NWAF is a richer loot point plus there another mil base 5 min from it with 3 barracks as well... But forgetting that there is plenty of towns inland that offer all you need oh and you will run into a lot less trouble inland so i guess it depends if your after action or survival....

Anyone else been alive since you got DayZ?
soulfirez replied to DayzForumer's topic in General Discussion
yeah id be surprised if any ones character survived a complete hive wipe....But who knows unlikely ,stranger things have happened . Frosti i am just under you(43hours) but had some close calls thanks to going to larger towns mil bases ( didnt need to though can get everything you need in smaller places unless your an m4 man havent found clips for that outside a mil base the gun yes but the clips nope .. -
Sarcasim noted LOL is it now one adds the old saying thats its the lowest form of wit???? Hmm fitting with KOS bandits being the lowest of dayz players ( waits for flames) but yes they are needed i just wish some of them were a little more inventive so many nice tools to apply and yet all to scared to do more than hide and shoot... Maybe when another cool torture comes in they may risk a little more for the lols eg what if they add the fuel being used for vehicles as a way to set fire to a character....

Temporarily buff Melees to make them Useful
soulfirez replied to hannibaldaplaya's topic in General Discussion
i can live with this but seeing they are human (infected but still basicly human although mostly absent of shock that we suffer that often kills us before the wounds actually do in many cases) how about there attacks are weakend once the first axe strike hits them as this does a large amount of physical damage specially to a person not worrying about defending only attacking. But they still keep attacking till final blow??? i can certainly agree with this as i have often mentioned on these forums a person under the influence of drugs (pcp and the like) are often hard to put down with shots unless hitting major organs heart brain as again they are resistant to shock as i would imagine these rage style infected humans would be.... But that still begs the question where do you move with the other melee weapons as currently they are little more than eye candy as i find them ( correct me if you have found how to use them well) less effective than punching..... -
Is it funner by your self or with someone?
soulfirez replied to macisbetter's topic in General Discussion
More fun with another player (although solo does have its fun and tension) sharing gear not really a problem with current loot levels specially if you choose different weapons as there found so not struggling for ammo.. -
Temporarily buff Melees to make them Useful
soulfirez replied to hannibaldaplaya's topic in General Discussion
I dont want to be drawn into another discussion about whats more effective but i agree with this.. I cant speak for anyone elses experience but for me if i dont have an axe id rather punch zombies down ( its pretty easy to do and for me i find it more effective than any melee weapon other than an axe ( fire or splitting ) maybe i am using the other weapons wrong??? But i can box a single zed without ever getting hit 2 zeds still not hard at 3 then it gets interesting lol i really thought even a clumsy weapon like a shovel fire extinguisher would do well more?? -
It just occured to me: We are all playing HUNGER GAMES!
soulfirez replied to crazykage's topic in General Discussion
Hmmm if it is hunger games where is my fancy bloody feasts etc when do i get a chance to get a sponsor.... There are times i wish someone would drop down little handy things to survive.. Yeah its a teen movie/book series but it does have a pretty interesting story line minus the love story in it... -
Do a lot of people not know about the anti combat logger mechanic, or WHAT?
soulfirez replied to crazykage's topic in General Discussion
I can roll with that i guess that would make for a grim reminder they know the log timer then. ( oh and that also would have had me knowing i hadnt died with my earlier problem (2 birds one stone ) sounds good to me ... -

soulfirez replied to crazykage's topic in General Discussion
Have only killed 2 combat loggers ( and i wasnt engaging them had stalked and and finally sure alone had declared myself with no intent to kill) Id say both had no idea of the log timer as they immediately sat down (logged out) I wasnt going to kill them but logging come on , so yes i gave each 3 point blank fnx shots to the head. I hope they realize thats how they died or they wont or will take a long time to learn not to combat log..... Not sure how hard it would be to allow a log in death message ( telling them they got shot so they know what happened and would it help??
