    Failed ambush

    This just happened Me and a friend + his brother were making our way to green mountain when we got shot at from a cluster of bushes, everyone spread out and hid inside tree's, his brother was shot and killed and we kept low for a moment to figure out where the shots came from. I told my friend to keep hidden (he is new) while i go look for our bandit. I crawled from tree to tree trying to locate this bandit, we heard an m4 and figured it was one guy. Suddenly I see a guy ,dressed in full camo, stand up behind a bush so I aim my fully kitted M4 and fire a short burst blowing his face away. Then I realise this must be my friends brothers body (since it tends to lag sometimes making dead bodies stand up) So I move along and finaly see a guy with payday mask crawling around a pinetree. I open up on him, killing him. After I locate my friend I see him standing over another corpse (?!) which was his brothers. Meaning the first guy I shot in the face must be yet another bandit! :D We proceed to loot everything (because of clean headshots most gear was still pristine) We then went on with our adventure. My second firefight I survive. 230 hrs Ingame with crap CP.. Tru story. (Also there was only 5 ppl on the server. Including us 3. The odds..)

    The coldest morning in Krasnostav

    Ice Cold. Nice story!
  3. I had massive lag aswell but im in electro now and I have better fps than normal(!?) Maybe because noone wants to go into the cities since the lag problem.. Yesterday and earlier today it was impossible to play but now it runs fine.. (Have low/medium computer) by fine it still lags but less then normal

    What Type of Bases do You Want to See in DayZ

    Voted tents, but I like the idea of barricades, so you can fortify a house/apartment with doors that you can lock (and destroy!). Traps would be cool aswell, but just basic stuff, like traps for animals, and can of beans on string so it makes a sound when you walk into it (so I get some time to pack shit up and gtfo of my camp before them bandits feed me rotten stuff)
  5. So when I logged in earlier today my backpack was empty, and when I logged in again 5 min ago my whole backpack was gone?! Is this known or have anyone experienced this?

    To those who dislike the new combat logging timer

    The timer is good as it is I think. If you log out and a zombie/player kill you, well then you logged out in the wrong place. And seeing while it counts down also defeat the purpose. I haven't had a problem with it at all.

    How does SKS compare to the M4/Mosin

    No i throw it away at the haunted shipwreck to please the ghosts and ask for safe passage :D

    Darkest darkness

    A tad darker than the Image. but still enough to see your hands. I like the idea of hiding in the dark, and moving during the cover that night provides, aslong as you actually see SOMETHING. also the risk of making fires for food.

    How does SKS compare to the M4/Mosin

    I like it, actually I tend to throw away my M4 to pick up a SKS, call me stupid but I love this rifle. only killed 2 guys so far with it :D :thumbsup: . decent recoil, nice sound. shot one guy two times in the chest and he died instantly (don't know if the first or the second killed him and how his bloodlvl was before I did..) The other one I emptied 10 rounds and I belive I hit him atleast 2 times and he was unconscious. (walked around a corner and right into him, he was armed with an M4 so I didnt have time to aim :P )

    Bye Bye Bayonet

    sounds like a part of some emo lyrics.
  12. I've got my fair share of blood on my hands. :rolleyes: I will be honest, I don't keep count on them but more than 15 but less then 28ish. Sometimes it's because they are a threat to me, sometimes because they walk up to me with an axe ready. I'd say I have lost more firefights then i've won, If any. I mostly avoid armed players, and I will more often walk up to a bambi and offer help, ask if they're new or if they need any help. I see no need in killing any unarmed players. But it all comes down to the situation and how the communication is with the other player :) . When i play with a friend we mostly handcuff and take your blood and chat with you for a moment and then leave you alone. (yesterday we handcuffed a russian kid who I-shit-you-not sounded like he was 7(nothing wrong with that) he said fuck off and my friend emptied his sawn-off into his back, that made me feel bad for the kid :( )
  13. First of all, Zombies, Their number and A.I fixed 2nd: Hunting/Cooking. I think it's important to make things like physics stable before one add alot of content. make sure ladders/stairs dont kill you etc. and feed us with a few new minor things such as the radio (Which I LOVE! and i wish it would have some sort of attachment so you can broadcast your voice all over the land, which would ofc require more channles, maybe "local" and "Global", or you could plug it into green mountain and broadcast all over. if you survive the axemen and the curse that lay upon that hill....) also I cant wait for a tent. but I belive there's a chance that the ammount of "elektro snipers" will increase when everyone is stacking piles of guns and ammo in their tents and just run back and get em when they die. but I really want a tent, a small camp up north to escape to and store your food..

    Do we want a reward for surviving?

    No to "rewards" Yes to beards! No to skilltree I could see a slight increase in say cooking/hunting/repair when it comes along but not in, stamina (running longer/faster) and weapon handeling (aiming). Just minor things that dont really give you an upper hand over others. But most def beards. That you can cut off. Which requiers scissors.

    Head Cover

    Don't want no ghillie in the game! But an IRA type mask or a beanie would be cool, Or a scarf or some sort of skimask.
  16. More Zambies. Also ofc the AI would need some tender care. As for that i would like ALOT more zombies but that moves slower. Like if you shoot in elektro a mass of zombies would movie in you direction. I think this would make looting more interesting, aswell as player interaction. Just a thought.

    What I Love About Dayz

    I tell you the shipwreck is as haunted as green mountain!
  19. I feel bad as shit when i shoot someone and my heart always start to race but today is the first time i didnt feel bad. Todays encounter: Me and a friend was looking around the shipwreck earlier today and saw two guy enter. Due to a server restart 5 min earlier we decided not to let them find weapons in there. Shot and killed one of them and the other guy starts to talk over proxy "Why'd you kill him? I guess you don't have much ammo left! Laydown and drop your weapons!" (We had enough for a platoon baby!) Anyhow I start talk to him while my mate just wants to slaughter this guy. I end up finding him and shoot him, he was unconsious and starting asking why I shot him. *Says lay down and drop you weapons *Asks why we shot him I say we needed food + you where a threat. He say there's a special kind of hell for people like me I feel sad, and say im an atheist He say there's a special kind of hell for atheists I end his life with my Magnum and walk away.

    Survival by begging and stealing only, no looting

    Hey first post (yey) Regarding your second video I agree with your philosophy on the game, I think KOS'ers and Bandits are a big part of the game. at the same time i'm hoping people will start conversations before killing someone, like handcuffing and make things even more interesting. Instead of just killing you and take your ruined stuff. I still belive KOS has it place in this game though. I've got 137 hours in game (and alot of lurking in this forum btw) and I have had some interesting encounters from time to time. Both hostile and friendly. People who really belives we need more friendly players should start with themselves. thats really the only way. I'm not a bandit nor a hero. Sometimes I will kill you for your beans and pants, other times I handcuff you hand take your blood and leave you to your demise. and yes even I KOS some times, it all depends on the situation. Some players just look more of a threat then others. *Warning for long post* Friendly example: 3 Hours ago I walked into a "bambi" in elektro, he called out friendly and as I had the upper hand, I also called out friendly, we chatted for abit and I gave him a few canned foods and a canopener. he suggested that we could play together but I decline (I regret it now actually. should've taken up that offer but I was being paranoid :( ) anyways, ended up giving him my Sawn-off shottie (with no rounds... :thumbsup: ) said good bye and good luck. Hostile example: Me and my pal was running down from Elektro into Cherno to find trouble and possibly some loot. going in the mainroad we hear gunshots and rounds hit the ground around us. we got to the well and hid behind a fence. after a minute or so we located two bandits with Mosins on the edge of the forest. we decided that I'd play the bait while he circle around and bash their skulls in from behind. I ended up getting shot and when he got to them the server restarted. Luckily we decided to join the same server again and amazingly I was still alive (?!). the bandits also joined again and my friend failed att killing them, getting shot a few times in his head as a result. while he ran back with a new spawned char, I decided to take action since I had a Pistol. so I went the same way my friend had gone and ended up killing one of them and the other guy shot me in the chest resulting in my death. was it the end of this story? no. it gets better. We both had new respawns and ran all the way to Cherno, we found one bandit body and took his gear and started our manhunt for the last one of them. after about 30 minutes we hear gunshots and decide to follow the sound. (we pretty much gave up on finding our murder at this point) so we follow the sounds of guns for a while until i spot a line of zombies running over a field into Cherno and infront of them I see our guy. that one that got away, and most likely the guy I shot (he had respawned and joined up with the one that was still alive). we surrounded the house they were in and began taking shots through the windows, while laughing like mad men B). no mercy was given that day. I killed one of them and the other one (I thought combatlogged) so we enter the house and begin looting, when I head a loud BANG and my friend screams over the comm's. he had just hid in the other room and when my friend opened the door he pulled the trigger of his mosin by accident and blew his face away, we got their gear and to this day this is the story of "those bandits we hunted down" :rolleyes: Im sorry for the long story.. :blush: Also have :beans: for good video!
