    Open discourse about hoarding.

    I can attest to this.

    Open discourse about hoarding.

    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?

    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...

    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!

    So much negativity....

    I hate threads like these. And I hate people who don't flush.

    Win32

    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?!

    Nah, it'd go down. His Mosin can shoot through walls, after all.

    People still use Windows XP? What the fuck?!

    Cheaters

    Yeah, been shot through random walls with Mosins a few times in the last few days. Completely impossible shots unless you were wall hacking. However, this thread ain't gonna last. inb4 graveyard

    I just thought I'd let you know...

    I played for six years when I was a teenager. I still play in a house league with friends of mine a few times every month. So, yeah.

    I'm Canadian, but always played rugby and lacrosse. Hockey is for girls.

    So I ran over a few people...

    So Death and I met a few unfriendly characters in Veresnik and decided to return fire... and bumpers. 'Twas the most fun I've had playing DayZ in months. ♥

    Nutrition/Hydration is Ridiculous

    They might've changed how full you are when you start a new character, then. They've done that before. If your stomach is, say, 2/3 full when you start a new character and are thirsty/hungry, you're going to notice a difference. It could be that your established 1PP character isn't suffering what your fresh 3PP character is for this reason. Personally, I haven't had an issue with either, even with the gripes about the new "changes". I guess after almost 1,600 hours these issues aren't such a big deal.

    memory leak + non-persistent inventory

    No memory leak here. Also, your inventory is automatically pushed to the top of each container upon logging in, so, as a general rule, it's best to organize it from top to bottom and not vice versa. Could that be your issue?
  16. Every now and then when I'm first logging onto a server after launching DayZ, I experience a few seconds of polygonal chaos. Not very often, though.

    Nutrition/Hydration is Ridiculous

    The fountains are definitely janky, but I just jumped onto a random private hive and attained healthy status within ten minutes. It had persistence on, to boot. On a side note, you can make yourself vomit again seemingly without any negative side effects. I took one too many drinks from the fountain and puked, then took two more and was bright hydrated. A minute or so later, healthy.

    Nutrition/Hydration is Ridiculous

    OP, you're bad. I'm energized/hydrated/healthy within minutes of spawning. Peaches/rice/sardines/powdered milk and fountains are your friend. L2P.

    Weird item damage upon logging in

    In my experience, sometimes items improperly display their actual condition. For example, I've picked up Small Protector Cases before that displayed "Pristine" upon first inspection, however, if I were to move the case to another article of clothing from where it was originally picked up, it will sometimes changed to "Damaged" or "Badly Damaged". It is my opinion that it has something to do with double-clicking items to pick them up (which is essentially the only way I pick things up these days); maybe the server doesn't properly sync when we pick things up in this manner from time to time.

    Sanity Check - Does ATLAS Bipod exist in 0.53 stable?

    There are Zero Reasons to Use an M4

    Why use either when there are plenty of Mosins and Long Range Scopes kicking around? I'll leave the spray 'n' pray until after they've fixed desync.

    New film -need advice

    You're looking for a program to edit them with, or a way to get them onto a website for others to see? EDIT: I use PowerDirector 13 for editing. I liked it so much, I even bought a copy. You can do pretty much anything with your videos when it comes to editing time.

    To the two that KOS'd at NW last night.

    What the fuck did you actually expect? How many games have you played with decent communities? I literally can't think of one game in which people are nice. Not one. In any game, you'll meet the odd nice person, but in case you haven't noticed, the internet is made up of a slew of dipshits, douchebags, and dumbfucks. Read the comments on any YouTube video for proof of that. If I made a post every time something stupid happened in DayZ, I'd never stop typing. You're just wasting your time, even if you are only trying to communicate how jaded you felt over an encounter. I've been slightly agitated over how an encounter has gone in the past, but these days I just silently /facepalm and move on.
