Again, as I stated, anything that promotes farming will promote macro'ing and yes, we don't know what they have in store for us but my posts were directed to the people wanting skills that level up like MMORPG style.

Well I didn't click on them so I don't know if they are or not

Video is over a month old. Chances are they've already locked this macro down and it no longer works. And FYI, posting a video that has links to the hack is a no no on the forums. Just saying. And yes, I understand the links aren't here but it's not hard to figure out.

He won't in the "ALPHA" And yes, macro's can fight zombies. How else do you think they did it in WoW? Mind you, they'd have to do a lot of macro'ing, such as for bandaging and eating/drinking. But if they are going to the extent to macro in the first place they will be able to do this.

No, instead it'll promote people making macros to do these mundane tasks for them. Every seen the macro farmers in WoW? Ya, not happening bud.

You are correct. They are working on animals for the experimental servers before they go into stable. If they do it like in the mod, you will need a weapon to kill with, a hunting knife for skinning/gathering meat, a wood axe to chop certain trees for fire wood, matches to to start the fire with and I believe a frying pan to cook the meat on. That's at least 7 items just to make food!!! There will also be predator animals making the woods a little more treacherous. Not sure if you can hunt the predator animals for food tho. So just from that example I gave, skills are not needed as the gathering of items and doing the tasks is going to be hard enough work as it is.

:facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm:

So go into house, kill them, profit?

You have 30 seconds to kill them. What's the problem here?

Highlander, I don't think you really understand the type of game DayZ is. This is not some fairy tale land where we need to go and slaughter pigs for meat and then collect bird feathers. This is a survival game with, hate to break it to ya, PERMADEATH. Well, some what permadeath. It's now turned into more of a Diablo death than anything. Get killed, run back to corpse, get shit back. Except in this case the corpse run might be impossible unless you have buddies with you. Anyway, all adding skills is going to do is promote bland gameplay of people sitting around doing nothing. They are just gonna go find a spot to hide and repeat a mundane task over and over until they max out their skill, then rinse and repeat

Actually I read it as they decided to make a story up about the issue. You know, instead of coming out and going "OMFGH4X0RZ" The OP put a nice spin on his story with a lovely pointed hat and magic

So a video is showing a hacker pressing his magic button that causes people to not be able to use weapons? Please, spare me. In fact desync is the number one reason why people can't equip weapons, use items, open doors or even vault. This has been around through all BiS games. It's the shit network code so please, don't use the hacker excuse when you get killed.

Wrong, it's desync

This is not a goddamn MMORPG. Jesus, go play defiance if you want to level up with guns

No No and No. This is the garbage that would destroy this game. I can see it now, sit in corner, shoot zombies 24/7, become leet. Again, NO!!! Skill comes at the users end, the one controlling the mouse.

The mods need something to laugh about

That's right, a free mod. For ARMA 2. Sorry to burst your bubble

Cool man, thanks

again, isn't the default button T? Correct me if I'm wrong or is it not working and we have to rebind it?

default button is T, right?

I haven't found this feature to even be working yet

Hey, I like your honesty.

For arguments sake, why do "you"(as in the 3pp people) choose to play only 3pp? And be honest because it is going to be easy to tell that you are full of shit.

I was having this issue yesterday and it appears to be getting worse. It's the network code I believe and if they haven't fixed since ARMA don't expect a miracle here
