Hi there, playing as "taxi driver" or "architeK". I´m more the friendly guy (shot just 2 ppl in 80 hours and that was necessary) Recently played MP-games: L4D2, TF2, Killing Floor, never tried Arma before. DayZ can become something huge

Those are the best things to eat atm. And i do it when i`m sitting near the well, as they`re supposed to reduce your water-level. Is this already implemented in stable?
-
Let me guess: you tested it on yourself.
-
maybe a fart after all that canned beans and spaghetti
-
or apples from the trees, there are so many at Solichniy/Nizhnoye-spawn (Plantage)

I thought a safe would suit for now where you can store some stuff. Making the feeling grow you got something like a home/base where you can operate from. As the number of items is growing it could be useful. You could also store stuff to help other players out. A combination lock would be good and lock-picks. One try to pick the lock with a minigame what kind ever, or just a random generator. If the player changes the server, the safe opens and the next one who finds it can set the new combination. EDIT: hmm, now i see the other posts, i tried "storage", "safe" and "locker" in the searchbar and no results were found.
-
If you die, the locker/safe is getting emptied and opened again. A hole would just have to dissapear.
-
An MP7 would suit perfectly to that "medic-kind-of-guy", every group should have one. Other weps: a bow, X-bow or tranquilizer gun. Also: - Police-Outfit (if you`re geared up, that you dont have necessarily to be green) - KevlarVest/Bulletproof vest, so that you can walk around in a T-shirt and got some protection too - Trapper Outfit (leather stuff, ten-gallon-hat,...) a bow/xbow would suit to this guy. - Contagion gear - Gear of the "chernarus liberaltion army" or other underground-movement-stuff.
-
Normally there´s some russian stuff but on one i saw another language, looked like i said above. Was there an ethnic minority in Chernarus before?
-
I would like to see an Mp5/Mp7 a Dragunow and Beretta Pistols. And for your gun: 9mm parabellum-bullets should be implemented by all means, therefore I`d say the second type.

Czech/slowakian language on advertising sign?
taxi driver replied to taxi driver's topic in New Player Discussion
no i saw one sign, (i think it was in the Cherno-area, some of those suburbs) On top it was cyrillic and and below there was another language in bigger letters. It was not that politician-guy. If i find it again i make a screenshot. -
This night time stuff is very annoying...
taxi driver replied to DeadTooRights's topic in New Player Discussion
I somehow tike the feeling of all servers being set at the same time, gives a feeling of unity. In future, with a campfire, in a more or less safe camp, barbed wire, bear traps, night time will also be much fun. -
Hope the bug of fall through walls would be fixed quickly
taxi driver replied to gogoringofung's topic in General Discussion
no but i will soon -
I just wanted to post a similar suggestion. "Wild" hemp (leftovers from civilization) that grows in some areas (maybe near creeks/ponds). The hemp of Chernarus doesnt get very high as wildlife habitat does shorten it by eating and the harsh climate. Therefore it grows humble in spreaded areas on the ground. Thats pretty realistic for a pioneer plant. U can craft a bong by combining a plastic-bottle, filled with a bit of water with a pen. (that works). Or you can smoke it (after letting it dry a bit) with a sand-pipe on soil. In that case you wouldn`t need water, also works without a bottle. The effect of smoking causes cure to some eye/sight-related sickness. But some characters may get hallucinations or paranoia which can be expressed in many forms. And yeah it could also become a kind of currency (inofficially).

Such things thankfully never happened to me until today, i had a crash: I entered a house in 3rd person, suddenly all the buildings dissapeared, i saw me sitting on grass and the screen was spinning round anti-clockwise quite fast. No chance to press ESC or so, had to finish by task-manager. I must say that i was quite carefully and avoided the higher buildings in the cherno-suburbs with one or two exceptions. When i do inverntory/suitcase-transfers or Inv/ammo box and such, i look that i stand on clear soil/bottom ( a road, bottom floor of a building etc). Not only one water desinfect, or charcol tablet dissapeared in grass or on first/second floors. Sometimes they´re one floor below, but thats a known issue. -
Yes, it`s fully loaded. Are "ruined" bullets the reason? And if i combine "pristine" bullets with "ruined" ones, are they all gonne be ruined? the `45 worked with all kinds of ammo. Or is there something else i missed?
-
A mix of "hero" and "Lone Wolf", also dont like the term "hero". Had a few good meetings with others to exchange ammo (got 5.56, gave 7.62) and other stuff but thats more the exception. If somebody doesn`t reply in chat, even after several tries, it`s extremely suspicious for me and it may happen that i decide to kill that guy for my own safety reasons. If there are more than one, i`m mostly retreating and hiding somewhere and maybe stalk them a little bit by watching their behaviour. If they`re bandits (and no chatting is a good indication) , it could happen that i try to involve them in a close to medium range combat. (As most got a mosin, i got an M4) or simply taking to my heels/leaving area.

My magnum just makes *klick* - doesnt shoot.
taxi driver replied to taxi driver's topic in General Discussion
Yes it was from a dead body, do you also know what happens when i combine "ruined" with lets say "worn" or "damaged" bullets. Do they all get the same status? I just got tons of ruined atm. (should have kept my FX., but i love the .357 Python, preferably in black...) EDIT:ok i`ll try what boonie said, thanks -
damn, not Vybor. I choosed it as my favourite place to be with many good looting-areas around
-
If you are able to kill another player, you have equipment and wont starve i think. I got more messages of being stuffed than starving atm. Depends where you are and how full the server is.
-
Strange, i just had a similar idea with smoking grenades/smoke bombs, maybe different colors
-
10 minute is not enough to loot dead bodies you put down
taxi driver replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
He is right: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/165709-pending-changelog-experimental-branch-031114343/page-3 staff member also says so (post #50) -
I like the idea of an infection and also turning into a zombie/whatever, (slowly dying would be the easiest continuative option i guess) - with an loot-spawning antidot of course and an "Infected status".
-
Beards, yeah. Aswell as haircuz/color and different body-physique, i mean an asian women is looking identical as a black guy when wearing gear and a gas-mask.
