awesome

I assume it could be standard AK or FN FAL, other options don't fit the setting.

It seems to me like the community is whining just for the sake of whining, don't you have anything else to talk about? In that case, silence could be a good idea.

Who is Frankie?

Totally agree with you, I was here just because it is maintenance day, and I was hoping for some updates.

I don't believe that it has something to do with "All the folks that think the devs owe them anything", there is just nothing left for us folks in this Alpha: 1.Experimental branch closed for 3,5 weeks; all bugs on stable were reported, described, reproduced and voted-up, probably like 5 times per bug; no dev blog, or any similar info for the same time period appeared etc.....

I want my update!!!

+ wall/texture glitch(prison mostly), m4A1 infinite ammo exploit, firearm impossible to use ( when looted from a deadbody)- all these bugs were reported and voted up multiple times.

Still no patch, no info about the patch, no dev blog, while the only thing continuously appearing are new game exploits, this is a perfect situation to be in.

Frankly speaking it is quite strange to have all these books only in English in a post-soviet state, in reality there would be none, so how about adding some books in Russian (Dostoevsky, Bulgakov, Tolstoy), and maybe also in Czech? The other thing I'd love to see in the game are newspapers telling about what happened in Chernarus.

Of course you can, I'm always reading, while waiting for my teammates to arrive.

Awesome video, needs to be shown to the devs and all those, who brag about hacking 24/7.

Pistols should spawn with 1 mag IMO, never had a chance to test a pistol yet, as somehow I always tend to find m4a1 with several mags, before any pistol mags...it is also hard to find any speedloaders for SKS or Sporter 22, wich makes them pretty useless for me, as I already mentioned m4a1 with ammunition is so much easier to find. It seems more reasonable to spread pistols, SKS, and Sporter rifles along the coast and leave m4a1, Mosin for barracks, airfields....

So the new town doesn't exist yet?

Also was expecting a little bit more...AKM for instance, but still its better than nothing! Where is the new town?

I definitely would not relate to a few obnoxious users as a community, but still it is quite ridiculous to complain about zombies in a game called DayZ.

I personally don't believe that any of the core game mechanics are going to be implemented soon,and I don't think you should anticapate it as well, just do some other stuff in the meantime.

lol devs should introduce even more zeds, x5 probably, so that you couldn't fire a weapon that easily, or run around inside a town, so that you would have to ask for help from other players. For those who complain, is it really that difficult to figure out that you should loot buildings that spawn melee weapon first, once you have it, zombies are not even a threat now.

Contrary to the video, my perosnal experience shows that anti-stab vest is a great deal, helped me to survive 5-6 direct hits in the chest area from M4. The guy atackig me was so surprised that he stoped shooting for a few seconds expecting me to fall unconcious. In-turn assualt vest (8 slots) takes only 1-2 direct hits from M4 until it gets ruined and no longer protects you. Also, Dayz wiki says that those vests should protect you from low-calibre bullets.

I would not recommend to play the game until the fix is being released, lost my fully geared character due to session lost, while sorounded by zombies, and then could not reconnect to any server, as I was always stuck in "Wait for host" or "Please wait...".

Great guide, but I always stuck on "Identify the issue" step, the thing is that you have demonstrated a rather illustrative and obvious example, but when it comes to game crashes, desync issues, or sudden loot disappearing from the inventory, I have no idea of the pattern that is causing it, or how to put a comprehensive description of the bug experienced, so basically the bug tracker is pretty much useless for me.

If true, then this is quite worrying, nothing works as good as the saline transfusion when it comes to unconscious.

Hope they will introduce at least two scopes for it - PSO and Kobra "green", extended mag would be also appreciated.

There's been so many videos similar to this one lately...

Any news at all? Re experimental or Stable patch?
