I'm always interested in peoples stories in Dayz, I also wounder how many people have actually made a real friend from randonly meeting them in game. I met a girl outside of Elektro near the petrol station last year and we have talked and played everyday since. Has anyone else been lucky enough to find that one person you click with and is a great gaming buddy? Im interested to see, tell me your stories.

No! Don't rush into any big citys, always asses the situation with caution and don't be stupid. That's how to survive my friend!

We tie fresh spawns up, inspect their anus, call them Susen and then make them dig and plant our seeds.
-
Yep, watch this video for red flag signs so It wont happen in the future!
-
Yeah like Death By Crowbar said, most people people that you meet often wont give you there steam because you or them die for what ever reason
-
Good good, It's nice to see real friends being made from a completely random encounter in a video game

I was a lone wolf for long long time, It was nice to change things up with a 2nd person to roll with who you know well :)

After shooting a rifle today with a real scope on for the first time the difference is insane, I was working all day on a building site so that's lots of heavy lifting ext, we had a little shooting competition at a friends house after. We were all fully standing and when I was shooting It was more shaky than swaying off from left to right. Right now the aim after even jogging for a few seconds is rediculous in Dayz, also when crouching the affect of sway should be reduced massivly because in real life when you are crouching and shooting at the the same time you're resting your elbow of the arm that mostly controls your aim on your leg, making it much more steady no mater how much you have ran. I'm not saying running would not affect your aim at all if you were to crouch after, but the affect would not be nearly as much. In dayz at the moment its ridiculously inaccurate and something that should be up for change in the near future.

I have not tested this with a lot of things, but its not a one off thing it has been happening all night in a 5 hour session of Dayz going in different servers and what not. When you zoom in with a mosin with a long range scope or a range finder (I guess it would be other things as well but I was not using anything else) you get this violent flick upwards every 10 seconds, this is not sway it seems more like desync but when I check my ping and desync its fine. It certainly makes sniping a challange on top of the ott sway atm. Anyone else getting this?

Just wanted to know other peoples thoughts on the new drinking and eating system. Persononally I think it was fine the way it was before, now its nearly impossible to get the bright green enegized and hydrated with out being sick and becoming thirsty or hungry again. Lets be real for a second, if you were about to die from dehydration and you found a pound and took 3 handfulls of water your would still be thirsty and no where near stuffed. Getting stuffed from 3 seperate drinking animations alone if way to ott in my opinion, I think they should of just left it as it was, it was fine like that, in my opinion at least.

Late at night can I find a server where it's not late in the game?
battlerhd replied to vfxtodd's topic in New Player Discussion
Nearly every server says 24/7 day time, or something along the lines of that. Night time servers are not that popular. -
Yeah it's strange

Thoughts on the new eating and drinking system?
battlerhd replied to battlerhd's topic in General Discussion
Yes, over drinking can be just as bad as not drinking at all but this is a game with mechanics that needs the eating and drinking system to be balanced, the main reason being is you regain blood and screen colour when you are bright green enegized and hydrated and at the moment I think its impossible to balence the them without throwing up, meaning the only way you can regain colour is with the Saline bag IV. They are not hard to find but when playing on servers that have mostly been looted then you have no way of getting colour back and for me playing black and white is horrible. -
I have not seen a single hacker since the new anti-hack system was brought in.

battlerhd replied to battlerhd's topic in General Discussion
Lets agree to disagree I guess, I think it should of been left alone in the first place as it was fine and something that was not broken. -

Cant dissagree more, drinking 3 handfulls of water is no where near your daily water needs. Healthy water intake is around 2 liters, think of how much water you would actually drink from a handfull taking into consideration spillage ext. Drinking more than 2 liters would not make you vomit, there is a difference between players caring about hydration and food than it simply being unrealistic and annoying. -
Ditch the mac, get a PC. Problem solved!

I don't understand the new melee swinging sounds, they are just not right and unrealistic in every single way. I understand if you were using a stick as a weapon because if you swing a stick at speed then it will make that sound, but all the heavy duty items like the sledgehammers? Wtf lol, just not right and seems sily to add in my opinion. Anyways what does everyone else think of it?

So if you want 40+ FPS is citys then follow the steps in this video! Credits go to the video maker which was not me. Note, you will need to decent rig to get 40+ FPS, If you have a really good rig then expect a lot better reults! -------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------- My specs: GPU: GTX 770! CPU: Intel® Core i5-4430 CPU @ 3.000GHz! HDD: 1TB Main, 400GB Back up! Ram: 12GB of Kingston! OS: Windows 8.1! Here are some pictures of the FPS I get in Berezino, In my opinion the game still looks great as well! http://puu.sh/fzWcX/d6e73b1be6.jpg http://puu.sh/fzWiP/8e90185b5e.jpg http://puu.sh/fzWmP/c3f6ca01bd.jpg http://puu.sh/fzWq1/096d18f5ae.jpg

I was in the friendly town we all call Cherno, and I was playing with my friend when we met this guy, he was friendly and didnt kill us but it was full pop in Cherno and no one was there. We made our way to the firestaion when the guy DC'd right outside in the open, at this point my teammate killed the kind man because females thats why then died her self in the same place, so there were two fully geared out the ass bodys next to each other and im there trying to gather the best loot and stop any lucky freshie hitting the jack pot when I see in the corner of my eye the red fire doors close, no foot steps or anything, so I go the 3rd person through the little back door, freaked out a little at this point because I could not see anyone inside and nothing was out side to my knowlage the door right in front of me closes... Shit my self and GTFO. So to the ghost of Cherno or maybe just hacker, I hope you enjoyed it along with the free gear! GG, fun times hacks or not. :P

Have you ever swung a axe? :P
-
Nooo, I mean when you swing, it sounds like a whip. Strange
-
Make sure there is only 1 stick when you do it or else it wont work.
-
Well the fact that you can see 40 FPS and I'm in a city clearly means there was a big boost in frames, I would not post it if it did not work for me.
-
Yeah dude, you need to update your OS.
