Not really.

The Mod used to be good. Now it's mostly just Arma with zombies. Go for the Standalone.
-
The only thing multiple people can accomplish faster in DayZ is, in general, loot stuff faster. When it comes to surviving, you're better off on your own. I've lost count of how many 3-5 man squads I've destroyed by myself.

Gearing up is the best part of this game
Grimey Rick replied to MoOnKat's topic in General Discussion
THE ONLY WAY I CAN HAVE FUN IN DAYZ IS IF I HAVE ALL THE GUNS AND I KILL ALL THE PEOPLE -
Getting stuffed faster than I can drink.
Grimey Rick replied to jmvars's topic in General Discussion
LMAO, the two edits in the OP made me laugh out loud. -
Vybor Military- ex-USSR-bloc Missed Connections
Grimey Rick replied to [email protected]'s topic in General Discussion
You're playing the game how it's meant to be played, I see. /facepalm At this point they should start selling single slot servers. -
The new dynamic reticle looks nice but is still inaccurate for hipfire :(
Grimey Rick replied to Anax's topic in General Discussion
There shouldn't be a reticle at all. Once looting is fixed so that all loot (even stuff on top of dressers, for example) shows up in your "vicinity" menu, there's literally no need for the dot, either. -
Can Someone Explain What This Means?
Grimey Rick replied to ColdAtrophy's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, I had 1,500 hours back in October. Since then I've barely logged 100. They're gonna have to do better than this to lure me back before full release on a consistent basis! I play for maybe ten hours each new patch that hits stable. -
Final Thoughts from an Early MOD player....
Grimey Rick replied to xalienax's topic in General Discussion
I both agree and disagree. I once looked back at the Mod through rose-colored glasses, but after returning to it recently, I realized how evil nostalgia can be. Both have their pros and cons, however, we still have a voice when it comes to the Standalone. I suggest you stay rather than quit and offer constructive criticism rather than cynical sob stories of how much you dislike it. Even if it ends up as a steaming pile of crap, you can at least say you tried, right? (; -
Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
Grimey Rick replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, that shit has been around forever. I remember back when you could still crawl under the original hangars at NEAF I managed to kill a guy that was trying to shoot me through the floor of the hangar. Anyway, I got him, and I crawled under to loot him. As I was laying there a zombie ran under as well and killed me in one shot. This was before the "healthy" status was implemented, but I was definitely 100% healthy as the guy didn't even manage to land a shot. Long story short, it's been around for at least a year now. -
TD;DR. (too dark, didn't read) I'll never understand why people feel the need to change the default text color. Meh. Welcome to the forums, I guess.

What purpose would this serve? Whether or not you realize a bear is mauling you to death irl is kind of irrelevant, i'n'it? At the end of the day, you're dead.

You'll find lots of PvP at my house when I get home on May 8th. Apparently my kids scratched my 80" Samsung LED TV. I'll probably KoS them, tbh.
-
Shoot them first. Duh... -_-

@OP: Is the new engine going to be a .pborlem for you? I'm here all night, guys.

DayZ 0.55 has given the sentence "the coast is clear" a true meaning
Grimey Rick replied to Mental Burner's topic in General Discussion
From every post you've made that I've read, it really sounds like you're just bad. -
@surf_polar: You need to learn when to stop typing. Jesus, man.
-
Terrible idea. Like, really.

Maybe after the local military evacuated, NATO set up base for a while before themselves being overwhelmed.

I've got convinced to play 1pp more.
Grimey Rick replied to SniperV (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
That's not true at all. Lol. I find it very hard to believe that someone who plays DayZ (a fairly niche game, even with 3,000,000 copies sold, considering USA alone has a population of 400,000,000+) doesn't play any first person shooter. How many complaints of motion sickness so you see in any other game? It's literally because of head bob and post-processing like someone else mentioned. -

Grimey Rick replied to SniperV (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
First-person perspective for life. Too many people complain about motion sickness and headaches. Apparently they've never played any other FPS ever. It just feels better, and levels the playing field, preventing people on the high ground having supreme advantage over those on the low ground. -
About upcoming stamina system, player speed reduction, vehicles and other premature game changes
Grimey Rick replied to SonicSonedit's topic in General Discussion
Who cares if we run a little slower? I generally jog everywhere as it is. If I spot someone, it takes less than half the time to catch my breath in case shit hits the fan. What's the hurry? Sprinting for miles at a time is retarded, with or without vehicles. -
If it helps you decide, I was falsely banned by BattlEye once (it was later lifted) and I was using SweetFX at the time. I never really got a straight answer as to why I was banned.

That's about all you'll get. My system is in my signature and what you're getting is roughly what I am.
