    Most versatile weapon combination?

    The weapon combo I always end up with is the mosin with comp, LRS and the .357 pistol. The reason is I can find it pretty easy, I don't need to worry about mags and I can be pretty effective with those weapons. In fact the .357 is a pretty nasty cuss to get hit with. I use it as a deffencive weapon, but If I need to take someone out its more the more then capible. Its def proved it self to me. You can one shot player with in some cases, pretty much just as easy as shooting a zombie in some cases, surpises me sometimes. Unless there geared, my policy on geared players is I just empty it out on them. The mosin I use for long range shooting, I hate using it close end slow reloads that will get you killed. I also like the .45 acp. Im pretty much a over watch style player, I used to grab an assualt rifle and duel carry. Thats a pain in the neck though, you always have to put one down to do anything...Its just not worth it to me. So having a good pistol is key to me, I survive for long periods norm I never pick up the ak74 or the mp5 just becuase it takes up to much space that can be used for other stuff. Plus finding mags for those is a pain in the neck. I like the .357 cause all I need is a speed loader, and a bunch of rounds...thats it. Same thing with the mosin, a speed loader clip, LRS, comp and bunch of rounds.....I am set! I like what rags was saying the sawed off is a pretty good combo with the mosin too. Of cource my sellection prob isn't everyones cup of tea...Its just what I like and works well for me. LOL every has to get the decked out m4, ak's....got that out of my system early on. But I know its fun to get all the parts for those, they are pretty cool....but now days I dont bother, just dont need it really.

    Clarification on "Base Building"

    I think base building should be with in reason. Blocking doors, maybe more tent types, or crafted tents, maybe fences, and metal objects, sand bags and the like. Epoc has down right not realistic base building. So I say with in reason. Also ghosting, is another issue that should be looked into. I mean what the hell is the point of having a base if another clan could just have someone spawn inside of it. So currently I see it more for storing on a private shard with the current engine then anything. Plus the server wipes once a week kind of defeats the reason for having one. I am sure in the future that will happen less often if at all.

    Killcam (hear me out on this)

    Yeah sometimes in dayz random shit happens....Like a zombie will on will one shot you and break your arm and ruin half your belongings from like 20 feet away. I noticed server ping has allot to do with if laggy weird stuff happens...The lower ping the better. Makarov really is not a powerful gun, you can still die from it. It could have been your avatar may not have been that healthy, was your avatar healthy? Any hungry bars lite up ect? Regardless its bad to get shot one way or the other. Once you pass out from being shot your kind of screwed.

    Crying Noises

    I think CJ_14 is right it maybe when players logging in. I was down in cherno in one of the towers 1st time I heard it, I hit the deck LOL. In fact I was hearing allot of bazare global noises...I saw the smoke too....were in cherno? Last night really was turned out to be bazare night for me in dayz....just weird. All my freinds left for the night I decided to stay loged in on this high pop up in a tower...I kept hearing explosions over and over....random gun shots (prob other players).....It was a weird time of day one the server right after the sun went down.

    Killcam (hear me out on this)

    Thats prob not going to happen. This isn't like COD or GTA or something like that...just not that type of game. I will respectfully ask are you new to DayZ SA? To begin with the best armored items are the High Cap Vest and G Helmet with visor, I would say those peices a gear maybe able to take 2 direct hits. If your completly heathy, you might be able get shot 2 to 4 times and live MAX....Thats all kind give or take wishy washy too, depending on were your hit. If running around with a starving none heathy avatar with bad gear, you prob are only one direct hit could kill you. So really you just cant get shot that many times, the key is not to get shot. Having your avatar healthy and well geared improves your odds a little bit. I tell you this from exp, if you survive it, some of your stuff will be ruined and you will have to recover your avatar too and re gear some of your items. Unless you just dont care, there are many the dont really care if they live or not...like the half hazard asshat that tried to sneak up on me last night. I put him on a tee and feild goal kicked his dumb ass right back to coast!

    Christmas Ceasefire

    You prob will not be missing much lol Even if they did do this "cease fire", it would prob turn into a gaint cluster fuck knowing this game.....I prob not playing on X-mas either..Hopefully if it does happen there will be some entertaining train wreck videos atleast. You know the video you watch and after it makes you feel sooo much better about your self LOL.

    Christmas Ceasefire

    One of the extras shoot another video too, he showed up to the party late and they were all dead. LOL What a asshat idiot that did that too....whats he trying to prove. I like love those morgan freeman videos. Marry X-Mas! A perfect example of why an xmas cease fire would not work...LOL..
  15. CJFlint

    Christmas Ceasefire

    We all know who the you tuber morgan freeman is...well his videos are staged basicly, but dam funny. From what I understand he did a "penthouse party" video, and he had recruited some extras if you will. Well guess what happened.......there of cource was an asshat in this group, he began shooting at the "party goers". They ended up in this really confusing shoot out were even morgan freeman ended up dieing. That was not staged lol You cant even shoot a funny staged you tube video about dayz without some fucking idiot screwing everything up and screwing over everyone. X-mas cease fire my ass.......you wanna do this on a public server LOL good luck with that one.

    How the North has Changed

    I remember before, NOVO came along there really wasn't all that much up there. Now of cource its prob one of the more building populated areas on the map. The new military base is pretty cool as well. Love those under ground bunkers....even though I know better then to venture too far down.
  19. CJFlint

    Christmas Ceasefire

    You know dam good and well it will not work. Sure allot of people may follow even mingle......this is the standalone, you know dam well some asshat will start shooting and turn into a complete cluster fuck. Good luck with that. <_<
  20. I would like the term ASSHAT or ASSHATERY used more often in the stand alone, inplace of bandits or banditry terms used in the mod. Seeing its soo hard to prove in the SA....so just refer to players you want to shoot as asshats....it helps with making you feel what your doing is just, and make you feel really good about your self... :thumbsup: "I just shoot some asshat!", you said. Now doesn't that just feel nice!
  21. YOUR FREAK N ME OUT! IRISH! :o ..............so do those dresses work for all avatars? :huh:

    Classifying Bandits

    Oh no prob. In a nut shell what I do is discribe a player based of posture and what geared status they are. So like if there just spawned, I call the "fresh spawn" or "freshy". Or example "hostile geared akm" or "sniper in the treeline" stuff like that. Just a quick id really if I'm playing in group, that gives a tells me what to look for. Really Im more concerned with were they are, how many, what they geared with and if there hostile then anything. I want the info quick and simple really. Bandit and Hero to me is a play style, not so much something I use to ID players in game unless I see them doing just that. Which most of the time I do not.
  23. CJFlint

    Classifying Bandits

    Well ok, I respect what you have to say. But your the one asking like your having a problem playing and not knowing how to deal with "bandits", not me. I learned how to deal with players like that and generally dont have a problem with them. I turn the tables on them. Thats I responded to your thread. As far as the 15 foot rule goes, its a buffer between me and the other persons avatar...You are aware a new spawn can simple get a good punch you in the head and knock you out right? Then take your stuff. It happens all the item. I ask random players to keep there distance. If they don't, I send them back to coast. Thats the 15 foot rule. So if you don't mind players getting close to you thats your problem. What determines how I deal with players in game is there posture. Do they have there gun out, are they sneaking around like there hunting someone. Are they siting up on hill under a bush. I dont give 2 shits about pre defined "hero" term or "bandit" terms that spilled over from the mod and really a just loss terms, to either demonise other players, or make them selves feel better about shooting someone. Its the truth. The way I look at it either a player is hostile or not hostile. You mentioned sniping, as label...one thing I aggree with you on. I do ID players by weapons or posture type. Terms like "Overwatch/sniper", "hostile with akm" stuff like that. Is that what you mean? Thats a good way to do it..so maybe we are not understanding what were each other is saying. Im saying "hero" and "bandit" I dont use those terms in game. The reality is most of the time when players shoot another player, they will search the other players bodys and remove items they want.so that makes you a bandit? The reason I say this is I played as "hero" in a "hero" group. Much of the time in the SA its really not all that clear who the "bandits" are or what ever. You just dont know really in the SA, thats the truth....unless you catch them red handed. So basicly I noticed players in my group, would just start randomly labeling player with out really knowing for sure, to justify shooting someone. The reason is becuase they were mod players before SA. There they had a mechanic in game that would rate based off you your actions, which call you hero bandit ect ect....Dayz SA dosn't have that, until they do there no point really in demonizing people...or what ever. So that way of playing in the SA is really wishy washy. But I tip my hat to them. Hopfully one day there will be a rating system that can cator and help that play style. Maybe some kind of moral mechanic.......it would be nothing but good for this game.

    Classifying Bandits

    I dont even use the term bandit or hero, or classify or lable players...unless it either its really crystal clear they play that play style or they belong to a group that is known to play that way. Theres no mechanics for it in the stand alone. I simply will not waste my time with it in the stand alone until they add a rating system and or make players accountable for there actions. Right now there is none. As far as dealing with other players go I follow a really simple self rules that keeps my avatar alive. If the other random player has a gun out in hand running around. I consider them hostile period. Its either shoot or flee at that point. I dont care what there play style is, how am I to know. There making hostile postures just by having the gun out. Now when I say this I dont mean someone who is clearly just killing zombies or hunting. If a player is just running along with out the gun out, and appears to be just minding there own biz, as long as its not a military base, and there hasn't been a bunch of pvp activity in there area I will leave them alone. I have a strict personal rule when it comes to voice com. I never make contact, unless the other person makes contact with me 1st and makes a real effort to show there freindly. I have a 15 foot rule. I ask them to keep there distance and keep the encounter short. If they do any misleading, or joking BS, pull any crap, they get a 1st class ticket trip back to the coast. I generally don't like making contact with random player, there are just to many dick heads and pure ass hats that play dayz. Its almost by design people play that way, there is no accountablilty other then dayz street justice..Random player have nothing I want or need that I cant find my self, and sure as hell not giving them my stuff. One other thing to consider too is what you are geared with. If you got a bunch military gear on in game, well other players are far more likely to think you are hostile. Makes since right? If you have civ gear on, you look allot less hostile, but also can appear weak to the more preditor type players. Regardless over all though for me it appears that most my random close encounters like 80% are negative or not ideal.
