    How to handle close encounters?

    Grimey Rick does what Rick Grimes can't. Kills innocents, hate-fucked Lori while she was still alive, and beats the shit out of Carl on a regular basis.

    Oh sorry, I didn't catch the used part. I thought it was brand new. Word.

    Infinite Mosin Ammo

    I've looted unlimited stacks of 7.62x51mm rounds, 5.56mm rounds, and unlimited Morphines from people. This isn't uncommon. It's getting too far out of hand.

    Barely more powerful* Also, SLI/CF still have so many issues, it makes me regret not waiting for the GTX 790. And gibonez, I'd have to see a receipt to believe that deal. ;3

    I get 90+ FPS with one 780 Ti in ARMA 3's campaign/scenarios on Ultra. I have SLI disabled for ARMA 3 because RV. Are those your FPS online?

    11 sodas - still not fully hydrated

    Soda Can (any) 142 kcal, 330 ml http://dayz.gamepedia.com/Consumables
  8. Yeah, I tried to grab it through the wall of the jail cell, and I went prone and tried to collide hard enough with the stairs to maybe clip through to grab it. It was a sad evening. If memory serves me correctly, you used to be able to snug right up to the boxes underneath the stairs... it would appear that now you can't. A sad, sad day. =(
  9. I haven't actually been able to load it as I haven't found any arrows yet. The model displays an arrow already attached to it, and when you draw and release the bow it acts as if you've shot something. Hopefully when I find some bolts I can let you know. =)

    Faster way to get military geared up?

    Like Irish said, the run to NWAF is definitely worth it if you're looking to make the most efficient trip. From any spawn location, it's no more than a half hour to NWAF. Sometimes I'll run there for the crème de la crème stuff, other times I just spawn in Berezino or Svetlojarsk and make do with what I can find. It depends on my mood. =) I've made a little list showing you the places you'll have the most luck looting particular weapons and attachments. Keep in mind some of these weapons/attachments spawn in locations I haven't mentioned; this list is for the most common spawns: WEAPONS Mosin/SKS/B95 - Police Stations, Schools, TEC Office Buildings. The Mosin and B95 are now spawning quite often at Military BasesM4A1 - Airstrips/fields, Military Bases, Military Camps (SWAF, NWAF)FNX45, M1911, CR75, Magnum .357 - Military Bases, Fire Stations, Schools, TEC Office BuildingsATTACHMENTS Long Range Scope, ACOG, M68, RV1, BUIS, FNP45 MRD, Suppressor (Pistol), Suppressor 556 (M4A1), MP/RIS Handguard, MP/CQB Buttstock, - Airstrips/fields, Military Bases, Military Camps (SWAF, NWAF)PU Scope, Mosin M44 Compensator, ATLAS Bipod, Pistol Flashlight, Weapon Flashlight - Airstrips/fields, Military Bases, Military Camps (SWAF, NWAF), Pubs, Taverns, Schools, Storage Units (Chapaevsk, Chernaya Polana, etc.), TEC Office BuildingsI think that's pretty much everything. Let me know if I missed something.

    What dayz could have been without zombies

    You'll never convince people that DayZ would be better without zeds. I agree with you entirely that it would be, but the majority of players (myself included) bought this game because they like zombies. Since buying the game, I've come to realize that zombies are the most aggravating game mechanic I've ever experienced in a game. In both the mod and standalone they just show you when someone is around. They're glitchy, clunky and not at all threatening. Like you said, they're more akin to mosquitoes. They'll never be tweaked to the level necessary to add to immersion. Instead, they take away from immersion with how unrealistic they are and will ever be. Since playing the shit out of DayZ, even as an avid zombie fan, I have to admit that it'd be better if they dropped the Z and just called it Day. =)

    out-numbered encounters

    One guy with his gun away can still faceroll his way through three guys with their guns holstered. :3 An M4A1, SKS, or FNX makes quick work of three defenseless targets.
  13. That sounds cool, maybe I'll do that sometime. I love the revolver. Right now I'm sporting an ashwood bow. I've been stalking people around the outskirts of Berezino as they travel to and from the airfield. I'm done going remotely near airfields until the next ban wave. =)

    LOL, DayZ a zombie survival game. They can label it as such until their fingers bleed, but it sure as hell ain't.

    Crossbow Life

    You can use the BUIS, RV1, M68 and ACOG on the crossbow. I haven't tried the standard M4A1 carry handle, though.
  16. This is actually somewhat true. I've killed quite a few cheaters when they overextend themselves. My experience is that 90% of the time, they'll use a Mosin since it seems to have the ability to penetrate through certain walls. I've noticed that if you just put your gun away and fist-pump your ass out of wherever it is you're pinned down, they have a hard time hitting you. I am assuming there are no aim bots as I've never been hit while doing this. When I get a fair distance ahead of them, while still in the open, I'll pull a 180, bring out my gun and just go toe-to-toe with them. I find this strategy works the best against them as they have no way to take advantage of the fact that they can blast you through the wall. And like you said, they generally have really shitty aim. It's the times when you don't know they're there that pisses me off. My friends and I will pick a jail on an airfield and camp it to force some confrontation from time to time. We'll be sitting there shootin' the shit just waiting for someone to come along and BLAM!, one of us face plants. That's what pisses me off. :3
  17. As a final nail in the coffin, the rare 1911 spawned in a jail underneath the stairs in such a way that I cannot get to it. I've been there for twenty minutes trying to figure out a way to snag it. FML:

    "Clear screen" Bug abuse?

    LOL. Win.

    Small, meaningless, yet rare items

    I wasn't showcasing my gear, I was just showing pictures of the sexy engraved 1911... ;0

    Would you want Persistent Bandages?

    I'm all for this, but wouldn't a bandage be under your pants? ;P

  22. The binoculars never seem to focus with PP enabled. It's a blurry mess. Headache material for me. ;s The new iron sight zoom is awesome, but looking down the iron sights all of a sudden makes everything blurry -- even what you're aiming at. Your peripheral vision should be obstructed when aiming, especially at a distance, but it shouldn't be blurry everywhere. Ah well, PP makes the game prettier, but it currently puts you at a disadvantage for half a dozen reasons. Off it stays until I need to snap a screenshot. :3

    This patch is littertly game breaking.

    Yeah, that's where I'm confused. I don't understand what they've changed that's forced them to implement this fix. I've never seen a thread on these forums about gear not loading correctly. Is this correlated to "character wipes" people sometimes complain about? Are they attempting to prevent that from happening anymore? I've been reading Rocket's posts on Reddit and I don't really understand what the sudden need for this timer is based on.

    Thanks, random guy looting NEAF...

    Yay.
