In theory, it makes the shit all over your screen go away. Never works for me though, too messy for flushing.

A possible noob in elektro nearly upgraded from the enfield he wasted me with to my DMR the other day. Luckily my teammate and his machine gun were right nearby. I understand what you mean.

I'm just an overwatch that wants thermal.

Never found one or killed anyone carrying one.

So, how is Arma II?
Dingus (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The guys on butcher Bay were nice enough not to trash me for being a newbie there. They showed me the ropes, but I was willing to learn as well. Also, don't fly something if you can't. Most servers will flat out ban people for derping an A10 into the ground just outside the runway. I know I can't fly that shit and I don't bother. -

Dingus (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, I like to play in servers that have actual rank structured and someone is giving commands and leading their squad. It feels really cool to work as a unit like that rather than watching your k/d ratio. -

Multiplayer is fun as balls. Just find a server running a mission like insurgency or something. I used to play on the Butcher Bay server a lot until they got hack attacked. The single player campaigns have a lot of long winded exposition and lots of "run here, now run there, now run here." I didn't have the patience to sit through it all. -
FIVE Things I've Learned Playing DayZ
Dingus (DayZ) replied to Kin0's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
HAHA I tell you what though. I have learned how to patiently get head shots with my secondary since the weapon nerf. Learn out of necessity. -
I hope I didn't seem like I was trashing anyone. Also, yes my small team and I use third party voip. We would likely not play if we could not. Simple truth is all.

FIVE Things I've Learned Playing DayZ
Dingus (DayZ) replied to Kin0's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, just about any primary weapon draws an entire town of them. Just have to adjust until it gets changed again. -
I have never bothered trying to use a crossbow. I won't even pick it up. I just use an axe. Glad you found use in it though.
-
Yeah, I kind of like those. I got caught in the Amnesia viral rush and enjoyed it. Maybe it's not the same watching a youtube video.

FIVE Things I've Learned Playing DayZ
Dingus (DayZ) replied to Kin0's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I was going to go with wafer cookies. -
What's all this about the slender game anyway? I've seen videos and it's not exactly riveting or anything.
-
It's supposed to add to the "authenticity of the experience." If you really were abandoned in a zombie infested no man's land... Would you really trust a stranger... etc etc

Every one I kill thinks I'm a hacker...
Dingus (DayZ) replied to Kriptz1's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Range of direct coms is 80 meters. You should not hear or read anything someone is transmitting past this range. I don't think rocket changed this in Arma in anyway, pretty sure it's an engine thing. -
Are the zombies meant to be one hit killers?
Dingus (DayZ) replied to spidy (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Very little loot, but a lot of zombies spawn there. It has a shitty risk:reward ratio. Also, it is all mil zombies. I don't know if mil zombies necessarily hit harder or not though. -

Thank goodness, I'm safe. -
DAYZ. what happens in the game will happen in real life.
Dingus (DayZ) replied to tfninja's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Generally what I mean. I am just mixed as to whether I think the weapon is inherently evil or the one using it. But you make a good point. It's a personal thing I haven't found a conclusion to yet. -
Yeah, I miss it sometimes too. I also remember the random people using voice over global annoying the piss out of everyone.

What is YOUR play style?
Dingus (DayZ) replied to SugarFreeBrowny's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I call myself friendly. Already posted a big thing about my procedure on encountering STRANGER DANGER. I'm just a very cautious friendly. I currently play overwatch/lookout for my small band of brothers. Typically, I find a nice place to have vision on them and the surrounding to spot zombies/players and guide their movements or alert them. Because of this, my bag space has become like a pack mule; carrying all the excess food/drink or the spare weapon/ammo we find and want to keep. At the moment, since goals are rather slim, we just focus on maintaining our vehicles and looking for baddies. "Baddies" of course generally means other small groups that are as geared or better as us. Scope out an airfield and look for zombies, then check it out, etc. I got a guy today that wired up the front entrance to a control tower. It was a trap to shoot anyone trying to figure out how to remove it, but I didn't bother and went in from the ladder. He was on the stairs prone eyeballing the front door. He saw me, but it was too late. He was loaded to the teeth and had something to give to everyone on my small team. My dream vehicle at the moment is a PBX. Someone found and took our chopper. -

I don't know. I didn't actually read it. -
Probably a guy who dupes, not necessarily a hacker.

It is supposed to be disabled on all servers officially running the Day Z mod. There are some servers who operate on unofficial code and provide this option. I don't know any off-hand, but they are out there.
