they killed DayZ for me and many others
Grimey Rick replied to Axezeroone's topic in General Discussion
The game is no harder, it's just more boring. How to survive, you ask? 1. Find an apple tree 2. Pick apples for an hour 3. Eat them until healthy 4. Log out until 0.56 -
Me and my crew mustn't be very fun for those attending the events we crash. :(

My computer wins, but it still runs DayZ like shit. I'm sure it'll run DayZ like shit at release, too. #pessimist4life

While I respect and appreciate the essence of a gathering like this in a video game, this type of event is infinitely more fun to troll than attend and participate in. +1 OP

the reaction to mass amounts of zeds worry me
Grimey Rick replied to gannon46's topic in General Discussion
This game needs to be brutal. DayZ talked so much shit about how authentic and difficult it would be, it'd be a shame for it not to live up to its own hype. Personally, I lost interest in H1Z1 after less than ten hours. The game feels too cartoon-ish -- they can add as many zombies as they want, it's always going to feel like a State of Decay ripoff to me. DayZ feels more visceral, thus appealing to me. Once everything is ironed out and there are massive amounts of zombies, I'll be a happy camper. ♥ -
FOV changes should only be able to be made at the login screen where you get a preview of your avatar. The fact that it's still possible to do it in-game on the fly in about two seconds (when you get good at it) is borderline mind-blowing. Turning a mid-range scope like the PU into a LRS with the aid of an in-game setting is enough proof that this needs to be fixed. /thread

I haven't been banned after almost 1,600 hours of using a run script. /thread

This hasn't been mentioned a dozen times before or anything.

I met a crazy Newfoundlander who lives a couple of hours from me through DayZ. He's a psycho, but hilarious; he's just as likely to shoot you in a fire fight and laugh about it as he is the people trying to kill you. I also met DeatHTaX through DayZ, but he's a huge fruitcake. ;)

Tell them to skip lunch twice this week. If you can't afford $40 for a game with potentially infinite replay value, something is seriously wrong.

to the guy i killed at Bolota ATC with 5 pelican cases full of ammo and grenades:
Grimey Rick replied to anarky321's topic in General Discussion
What kind of fucking loser buys gear in a survival game? Wait, H1Z1 does it too. Buying ANYTHING [especially] in an ALPHA version of a video game in which you could lose all you bought with one improperly mounted ladder or a stray bullet is probably the biggest waste of money you could think of. Heating your home by burning $5 bills is less of a waste. -
Have you ever run into the only other guy on the server?
Grimey Rick replied to IgnobleBasterd's topic in General Discussion
Plays multi-player game which is extremely heavily based on player interaction. Runs into only other person on server. Freaks out and makes forum post. 10/10 -
Standalone updated enough?(since Sep '14)
Grimey Rick replied to AtotehZ's topic in General Discussion
It's an alpha. Dean with it. -
Oh yes, indeed. After being flamed for three days by 90% of the forum and borderline harassing the BattlEye admin, it was finally looked into. (I'm definitely glad that it was looked into, but it's by no means a great system.) BattlEye almost cost me $90, and I've never even thought about cheating. My heart goes out to the plethora of false-positive bans that haven't been caught.

I ran around with a character that had an irregular heartbeat for a full week without suffering from a heart attack. Thanks to my good buddy for hitting me with a defibrillator whist I was eating! (I ended up drowning that character, fully geared. Wife spawned in Chernogorsk while I was way up north. Saved a lot of nagging.)

"Friendly" Players who KOS behind your back.
Grimey Rick replied to HappyXceed (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
What you're describing wasn't KOS. -
How exactly do you know someone duped their gun? I always find this type of post amusing.
-
I can attest to this.
-
Wow, really? Hoarding is the entire point of the game, <expletive>. That, and killing other people. Do you expect people to just loll around Chernarus being nice to everyone they encounter and feeling guilty for looting military equipment? If my bags are full of stuff I took the time to loot, you're fucking right I'm going to head back to my tent. If we weren't meant to hoard, why the fuck would they have implemented item persistence? So we could make a base and sit in it with a thumb up our <expletive>? /facepalm

who's seen the abandoned soviet underground bases?
Grimey Rick replied to Wookieenoob's topic in General Discussion
I flew off the first ladder and fell to the bottom but I didn't die, just landed with a soft *poof*. I've been down there several times, usually once with each new patch to see if they've changed anything or added loot to it. I had a military tent at one point that I was going to try to erect down there, but I ended up killing two guys at the new military base and I lost it as I was looting their stuff; I put the tent on the ground and it disappeared. =( -
I think I might have a problem with shotguns...
Grimey Rick replied to emuthreat's topic in General Discussion
Me and my Newfie friend messed around with the MP-133 the other night. I was able to hit him at 110 meters or so and the shot took him from healthy to a grey screen. One of my new favorite weapons! -
I hate threads like these. And I hate people who don't flush.

Come on you lazy developers, DayZ doesn't run on my copy of Windows 95. This is complete crap; I shouldn't be expected to update my OS every twenty years, you guys should accommodate me as I paid for your product!

Stay out of my car, you fucking thief!

why doesn't the bipod fit on the mosion?!
Grimey Rick replied to GhostSlayer (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Nah, it'd go down. His Mosin can shoot through walls, after all.
