DayZ BULLSH*T AT IT'S FINEST... [ 1:11 ] very early alpha :(
muddyraccoon replied to Toperek1990 (DayZ)'s topic in Gallery
That bambi will never know the truth. He will always assume he outsmarted you. -
Removing a certain sound effect?
muddyraccoon replied to [email protected]'s topic in New Player Discussion
It's impossible to know tone-of-voice, but I was having a laugh. I knew what you meant. There are issues in this game that actually bother me, Chewing sounds not so much. -

muddyraccoon replied to [email protected]'s topic in New Player Discussion
If you think the sounds are normal, then for the sake of everyone you may potentially share a meal with, change the way you eat. I hope they get tweaked. -
How many pallets in a buckshot ?
muddyraccoon replied to Mor (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
The things the mind spontaneously invents in a split second of misunderstanding. a half second later you get to laugh about it. I too did not even notice the typo and wondered if there were shells on those pallets. -
I knew I'd like you. My in-game name is also Preacher.

clan infiltration, sabotage, subterfuge and betrayal
muddyraccoon replied to beansy's topic in General Discussion
Trolling via a short story is still transparent. I would say "you should have waited until after your betrayal to run your mouth," but in DayZ you respawn, so, all your plans won't matter. FAST FORWARD TO FULL RELEASE "Hey, good friend Beansy, need some water?" -Sure I do! BOOM! Headshot! I am the best evil villain ever! This trap was laid months ago and you fell right in! Weep! Weep before my might! "Pfft, dickhead" clicks Respawn -
Spawned in Kamy, ran around Elektro, ran to Cherno, cut up through the hills to avoid Balota, then came out of a clearing to my first above ground Heli crash. I have never been so excited (yes I have, but hyperbole's are fun). M4 attachment, M4 attachment, M4 ammo, M4!! M4 sights!! even an FNX5! So excited! Then I got cocky, or I just play stupidly. Ran through the shadow of Green Mountain headed to Zeleno from the south. I hear a bullet impact, then "You Are Unconcious!" NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I was so cool for just a minute. So I'm desperately smashing the "w" key yelling "GETUP!" but I heard death approaching. The footsteps got close then stopped. Then the proud a-hole goes into some sort of rant about how "Fucking Bullshit" server hoppers are, and how abusing servers with messed up persistence was as low as hacking. He also pleasantly commented on how he wished he could look up my address to come murder me for real, because he would make it slow. Moral of the story? With loot the way it is, I would have done the same in his shoes, minus trying to make it a personal affront. better safe than sorry. Also, server hoppers usually aren't running around the limbo in between cities, are they?

Yeah, the Map / Players tab comes up, but the black should be map. There I go again, thinking someone makes the same mistakes I did. And we all know what they say about assuming, it makes an ass outta u and ming... It looks like it could be bug. Maybe check the bug reports to see if this is a problem. Or, HEAVEN FORBID, MAY GOD FORGIVE THESE NEXT WORDS download the iZurvive map. Or open up DayzDB. If you join a clan, iZurvive can be a little gps unit for your whole clan, showing their locations. I've only heard that from people on here, so don't quote me. But I assure you, using a non in-game map is not cheating. EDIT: I hope you aren't typing a response to my response now! This could get confusing.

You can't put the completed map in your hands and "use" it. Once you complete a map, it will automatically be moved to your hotbar if there is room. But it has to be on your hotbar to use, and when you want to look at the map press the corresponding hotkey. Also, if you do use the in game map, just know that once you press the hotkey the map will instantly pop up on your screen (fills the screen), but when you get out of the map, there is a short loadscreen before you get back to the game. It's minimal, maybe a couple seconds, if even. But that is enough time to F*** some S*** up. A few times I heard approaching footsteps. I reacted as best I could, but losing that few seconds (if even) lost me my life.

There isn't too much loot at all.....
muddyraccoon replied to smatdude13's topic in General Discussion
That there is a thinking man's throne. -
I strongly feel the same way, with only one exception: Videosaur, but that's only because he has some weird love story thing unfolding. But I only watched during server down time Wed.
-
Go back to Battlefield if you want to kill! But seriously, look for servers that say PVPElektro or PVPBEREZINO. They will let you know where to go for some killing. Also, look for a clan that does the same thing you do. In the Recruitment section.

DayZ 0.5 first impression after long break
muddyraccoon replied to Zing Freelancer's topic in General Discussion
Unless I am mistaken (nobody's perfect!) AK101's and AKM's will only be found in military barracks. Even then it's rare. Having Zele as my HQ, I frequently visit the barracks. Only once out of 10 logins in the past month did I find an AK101. And That time there were 2 in the same building. Even better, I found an M4 on a heli crash. Then I update, log in, and I'm unconcious, then dead. Now I'm happy because I don't have the burden of good loot to lose. Now I'll go make friends till I can kill** a bandit and get a good gun. **ONLY if I am threatened, or he has an M4. Or a sub machine gun. I still haven't shot one yet. -
Quarry sniping. A beautiful way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
muddyraccoon replied to VIDEOSAUR (DayZ)'s topic in Gallery
Instant connection. "He's carrying your gun and my baseball bat." Fists up. Good stuff. -

muddyraccoon replied to VIDEOSAUR (DayZ)'s topic in Gallery
That was the sweetest video. Although threatening to blow out her kneecaps, yes, it was a sweet video. -
Aye! I'll second that as another mustache wielding irishmen.

Also, the search function on this forum should get you up to snuff.

It's happened a few times where I can't tell if: A] it was real gunshot or in my dreams. How many bullets were in my Mosin? B] it was my own gun that went off. Am I being shot at?
-
Yes. My friends know what signs to look for to see if I'm dozing off. walking in small circles is the when I start nodding off, but when I do overwatch I tend to accidentally fire my weapon. If that doesnt wake me up, my friends will.

Does anyone dislike the "no military stuff" agrument?
muddyraccoon replied to stielhandgranate's topic in General Discussion
I will say, now that everyone doesn't have a M4, I can survive shootouts more, especially when unarmed. Or maybe I'm just getting even better. -
that dang steak, cooking question
muddyraccoon replied to Brimstone99's topic in New Player Discussion
One doesn't. The finest potato prepares itself. Also, I know this is the apocalypse or whatever, but do the right thing. Always let steak rest after cooking. Don't ruin your meat. -
Use any map you want. I know the scale of Chernarus can seem overwhelming, but it's pretty simple. But only use the map. You will memorize the land soon enough. But as for loot, do not use DayZDB, do not google loot locations, and do not trust what other people say about what they found where. To find loot locations you literally have to loot those locations. Is it almost maddeningly pretentious to say "The loot you need will be where you find it,"? Maybe, but as an elite I can say things like that. Why am I elite? Thanks for asking. Because when I first got this game, I found cities by running. I ran across the country, starting at a coast, finding another coast, finding places void of any tree or path or texture. Now I can sniff the air, look at the sun, rub some dirt on my hands, and, after listening to a few knocks on a tree's trunk, I will be able to know my current position.

That's in-tents, man! My girlfriend had a bunch too. I had to use the past-tents because she can no longer play DayZ. She is in the hospital, in in-tents-ive care. I injured her when I motor-boated her tents a little too rough this time.

An example of the power of the shotgun in CCQ
muddyraccoon replied to BeaverProductions's topic in Gallery
Was it your intention going into that gunfight to make a couple "Deal With It" memes? Either way, well done. -
Those crazy college kids will put a damn slip-n-slide anywhere!
