Gandalf the White (DayZ)

We all used to be like that. I remember having shot everywhere but the target, and end up trying to beat someone to death with my bandages... Panic is a natural response. The truth is I only became desensitized once I got into a LOT of gunfights, and afterwards it doesn't bother you anymore, You become used to the pressure of the situation. All or nothing, all the time. And you have to set your own ground rules, or law of armed conflict if you will... Like when you tell someone to put the gun down or put their hands up and they won't within 5 - 7 seconds, it's open season. Or if you shoot, you better kill me because otherwise I'm taking your beans while I let you bleed out near a pack of zeds. It helps to think more clearly about it.

You can always starve/dehydrate yourself. It takes a while but it gets the job done. You already came there starving and dehydrated so it shouldn't take long at all.

I honestly want them to work, I feel like my options are so limited when it comes to hand to hand combat. I'm almost always forced to shoot vs being shot at then being able to bayonet someone or a zed. Hell I'd be satisfied with a butt-stroke or using the gun as a bludgeon if no ammo is available. Also they should have the same damage value as a splitting axe at least. Not a fire axe, but definitely a splitting axe. So many Ideas come to mind.... /sigh. Imagine all the bambis you could kill with a functioning bayonet.

AK's. We are in russia but there is not a single AK. Much realism, so sense.

Not tryin to break up the fight or anything, but after Dean leaves, Bohemia is gunna do whatever the player base wants, so they can squeeze out every single penny from us. And sadly, the player base wants little floaty name tags and team/ party identifcation methods. Just throwin that out there..... Please continue..... I'm just gunna eat mah beans over here :beans:

ALPHA It's the excuse for everything

It doesn't spawn anywhere.... it spawns in you. There's a long range scope in all of us. :beans:

To the 2 guys at the North East airfield. I don't feel sorry. You're 2 10 round SKS mags are nice and your beans were delicious :emptycan:. No need to call me a fag B) You should know by now if you go to Airfield it's KOS.

Svetlojarsk Seriously. The best city in Chenarus. Hands down. Weapons and ammo like there's no tomorrow, and enough food to put your grandma out of business. Clothes, equipment, the works. Go there. Thank me later. http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus#7.139.021 Link to map in case you plebs don't know where this Olympia is. B)

You spoiled it now :blush:

Yea but dat sound tho. The SKS has such a beefy sound to it, it's like firing 12 inch dildos with a bazooka. But the Mosin does look so sexy when it's painted..... I'm about to just toss a coin for it.

So I killed a guy at airfield and took his SKS (Just another routine Banditry). I got a spray painted Mosin with compensator but no scope, so I was wondering if it's a fair trade, or is one better than the other for keeps. SKS has bayonet but no scope. Also looted 2 10 round clips for it as well. Opinions are valued :D

So I was at Cherno, with my character who managed to survive on max population servers for roughly 3 weeks now. I wanted to try and find a pair of black cargo pants to fit the rest of my awesome full black outfit with M4. I walked into one of the warehouses where I wanted to look for the cargo pants, WHEN I FUCKING FELL OFF THE GOD DAMN RAILING and broke my fucking leg. Needless to say I had some morphine on me right? WRONG no morphine. Well no big deal let me make a splint that's just as good. Oh ruined rags..... And ruined bandages..... WHY THE FUck WAS MY WHOLE PACK RUINED??? FROM FALLING 2 GOD DAMN FEET???? Alright sailor, how bad do you wanna survive? Time to crawl your ass to a hospital or a barn to make a splint/ or get some morphine. You got this tiger, it's time to live. Oh fuck me, there's a Zed. And there's another one. Time to pop them with my .... RUINED M4???????? PANIC PANIC PANIC AXE, HALP MEH........... How the fuck is there 5 zombies on me?? Oh wait you can't swing your axe from prone position. Speed crawl away from them? Nope. The zombies shat all over me as I crawled there helplessly. And then.... after 5 minutes of crawling and getting mauled by a pack of zombehs..... YOU ARE UNFUCKINGCONCIOUS Oh god. I laughed and cried at the same time. By far the worst death I have ever experienced. So helpless. GG

As soon as I stood up and try to swing it would put me back down again. I tried everything desperately.

Electro = Airfield. KOS. Always.

Only because sniping has the advantage of stealth and lethal surprise. Survival just doesn't make it feasible to engage in open brute force close quarters combat with an m4.

Run into electro wearing pants.

I stopped right there. If you're not on a maxed out server it doesn't count. Anyone can survive in a medium to low populated server.

Is there any thread or rulebook that says you can't POS a geared player as a fresh spawn? No Are you stupid if you are geared and go to a coastal city and you still managed to get knocked the fuck out by a freshspawn? Absolutley The point is that there is no set of conduct to obey by when it comes to survival. Kill or be killed, or in this case punched or be shot.

All I see is people complaining about another legitimate survival tactic.

There's too many frankie wannabes that think they can hold people up or are under the illusion that people will comply. I have so far killed every attemptor captor. If you try to do this you have to make sure you are in a position of absolute advantage. Otherwise I will unload a 60 round clip on your lifeless body.

Getting the healthy status makes enabling post process obsolete, because I'm already aware of my health status. If you're in it for the game experience I don't recommend playing it like that just yet, because the screen bluriness is way to much for even minor damages or scratches.

Not more than 40 tops. I only have 80 hours played. I'd say about 32 of those were bandits and the rest are blatant murders/ fresh spawns.
