KoS and apocalypse go hand in hand.... usually
DeatHTaX replied to jmido8's topic in General Discussion
Well that may be a common denominator, but I think it's like comparing a Red dumptruck and a red apple. Saying they're both red doesn't really necessarily make them a common item. I think those comparisons are a BIIIIT far fetched. but you're entitled to your opinion xD -
You're just not making much sense... You're problem is with KoSing so you encourage everyone to do it now because you're fed up with it.... ??
-
Cool. This will encourage so many positive results in the game. Thanks for your valuable input

DeatHTaX replied to jmido8's topic in General Discussion
I don't really think wild west to zombie apocalypse is really a good comparison...I mean we're talking "Humanity is fighting to survive" crap here. I don't really think this works :/ -
From my experience, this is pretty irrelevent at the moment. My attempts with zeroing do nothing basically because I don't think there is any bullet drop yet. Someone correct me if i'm wrong please
-
Hm, it's really not all that complicated IMO. Always hang back somewhere with a good vantage point to cover your team when they're looting, always stay a good distance behind when traveling, like a good 200m behind, so if theyre ambushed you can get to a vantage point and provide cover, and always put your back to some kind of cover. makes it harder for people sneaking up on you to see you.

Quick question regarding mosin spawn since patch
DeatHTaX replied to Happy-'s topic in New Player Discussion
I have found a Mosin in almost every kind of building xD Idk why they're so hard to find for everyone else. Just keep looting you'll eventually find one :P -
HOW TO USE THE WEAPON CLEANING KIT- DayZ Standalone
DeatHTaX replied to TheModernGamer94's topic in New Player Discussion
Hopefully they'll introduce an advanced gun repair kit or repair kit of the like to make ruined guns at least functional -
While we're on the subject of DayZ and music, I found the perfect musical artist for the DayZ SA soundtrack

Saw a guy. Said "pewpew 'murica" shot in face SKILL beans please

Meh, I don't really see KoSing as a problem for the MOST part. I mean it's a given aspect of the game that people have to come to terms with. Sort of an uncontrollable dynamic. People can KoS or not KoS as much as they want. I mean yeah I used to have a problem with it, too, but I moved on and came to terms with the fact that i'm gonna gear up in about 5 - 6 hours, and then i'm gonna die and repeat the process xD I don't understand why everyone is getting so bent out of shape about this. Part of the excitement in this game is a RESULT of the fact you could die at any moment. That's what makes this game so exciting there's about a million and a half different ways to avoid trouble as a fresh spawn, people just choose not to because running along the road to electro is just the easy way out lol :D

It'd be ludicrous to think there WONT be a functioning train
DeatHTaX replied to autoloon's topic in General Discussion
of course not, i wouldn't expect anything in DayZ to ever be that simple lol xD not with something waiting in every bush to end your life -
What was your most annoying death by another player
DeatHTaX replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
Sorry...may have been me. there have been times someone spawns in front of me and it scares the living bejeebus out of me that i sometimes tend to panic and shoot lol xD -
You're not wrong at all. I spent about 20 minutes getting my mouse settings just right. It is incredibly difficult to get around. I'm sure the devs are aware of this and are working on it :D Oh and sorry about what our boy did to you in the playoffs :P

HA! I haven't heard the slang "PK" since my old runescape days lol xD

So I've seen quite a few threads now about specific elements of vehicles and vehicle types, and have seen complete opposite ends of the spectrum. Some people want armored vehicles, most don't. There's an awesome thread about trains I think everyone should totally hype up on: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/168690-itd-be-ludicrous-to-think-there-wont-be-a-functioning-train/?hl=train But anyway, I'm curious to see the community's general consensus (if we come to one) on what our expectations for the vehicle system will be? For example, what type of vehicles do we want/expect. Will there be varieties? Will they be open topped vehicles for susceptibility to small arms fire. Will the system to acquire one be like the original mod or will it be different? Curious to see what you guys think Personally I would like to see very lightly armored vehicles with no doors, roofs, etc, that can be spray painted and customized with tools. For example, you could find a blow torch (weld kit, etc) and add certain items to the vehicle such as armor plating for the front to protect the engine from small arms fire, or to make tire guards, or mount a defense weapon of some sort. I am with the crowd who hopes there are no heavy duty military vehicles of any kind xD

Well I've heard some murmurings regarding helis as far as what it takes to be able to fly one. I mean I think helis would be appropriate if you: A: needed a significant number of pieces B: Required multiple pieces of documentation or literature to learn to pilot it, including startup sequences etc C: ...actually the startup sequence thing kind of makes a lot of sense. I'll stop there And as far as the helicopter startup sequence goes, it should have some sort of game-unique trigger, so someone cant just youtube "how to startup a helicopter" and then fly it Idk I just think it shouldnt be counted out quite yet :P

providing you don't get Ambushed Hit a tree or rock and die Hit an abandoned roadblock Zombie Hordededed Die of any one of the many natural diseases Have your vehicle break down and be stranded in the middle of nowhere Get chased by another vehicle full of bandits Get noticed by someone and alerted to your direction and presence, thus becoming hunted Sniped out of your vehicle Have your vehicle stolen in a town you stop at My point is having a vehicle doesnt mean it's going to be "I have a vehicle now, I AM INVINCIBLE! MWAHAHA!" There seems like a lot of potential for owning a vehicle to be a serious gamble and risk to your safety in this game
-
Well right NOW it'd be easy because we have youtube, but idk just somejoe schmo runnin around zombieland Chern? lol get outta here :P no way thats easy knowledge
-
Well I liked whoever it was <---- that-a-way who mentioned the use of bikes. I think that would be a cool alternative mode of tansportation. I'm very interested to see where heli's fit into all this...

I don't think he's played the "Simon Says or you die" bus either lol can be INCREDIBLY fun....but very wrong lol xD

Hot Spawning, Ghosting, Combat Logging. @@@
DeatHTaX replied to MethHeadMario's topic in General Discussion
I think some of you are a bit hard on the guy. They have a LOT on their plate. Just because it's a new version of the mod doesnt mean some things should be fixed immediately :D -
Well I don't know...think about it. In a setting like chernarus, it wouldn't be difficult for the population to pack up their things and high tail it outta there with their family vehicles in a zombie apoc. like that, so you could technically argue for either, I suppose.
-
Oh i completely agree, but I mean hey, they're already there :P maybe Obama bent over and gave putin a big ol present of a half million humvees :D lol idk Anyway I'd like to see the vehicles be rather fragile and a pain in the ass to upkeep. I think you should have to find some sort of mechanic manual or booklet, or hell, even have respective operator manuals you have to find for the different vehicles before you can fix them up. Let's be honest, doing routine maintenance on a post apoc vehicle isn't as easy as you'd think THEN there's the issue of gasoline..

Then we'd all have to suffer through a whole week of new signups posting "OMG WAR IS MILTUHTAREE LOOT IT GAWN" threads
