NIce vid man.......packed with action...LOL :thumbsup:

You know you can have sticks now almost anywhere right? go to the nearest tree, chop it down and make "thirds", ....do carry them at all times (along with rags or bandages) in order to craft an splint...you will need it for this situation or when shot..... Morphine does the trick also. This is the end of the world!!!! you should be prepared! ;)

There is one server (cannot remember the name) that puts this really nicely: "Don´t be afraid to fight, they are just pixels, lose them bravely..."....I am always aware when we have a pinned down player if he is combat logging.....and if he is we go and take the kill....you should, as someone said, win, lose or get the hell out of there......

Thank you guys!........for all the answers.....will keep on trying! ;)

Not at silly answer.....I was relaxed, proned and with bipod in the case of the AK.....and still the sway was horrible.....maybe my guess will be something with mouse sensitivity?.....Gets me a bit less worried now, since it does not seems to be a new bug :P .....Anyhow...thanks! Cheers mate

Thank You Aggathor for the nice tips. I do have a question: yesterday I was trying to snipe zombies with the PSO scope and the LR in a Mosin and the sway was brutal, to the point of making it impossible....it is a bug or I do have some controls off, like mouse sensitivity? I truly appreciate any ideas/suggestions you can give me! Cheers.

Sorry for that: the word would be "sway" and not lag. That would be the movement side to side you have modeled in the game. This is less noticeable on hand guns and much more in rifles. By the way: on the last patch 0.47, the sway on rifles with scopes is just impossible....guess that will keep the snipers away for a bit :P ...... Cheers!

rjclock: Last time that I did this with the M4 was like 2 or 3 months ago, don´t know how that relates to current patch, since I haven´t been able to find M4 for that period of time. All trials were made at 300 mts/ACOG pristine/all parts pristine: The highest accuracy with the M4 was obtained with all the MP attachments (MAGPUL), that is buttstock and handguard. The worse was with the OE attachments and the QB was somehow in the middle. The RIS pristine was in the middle also, which is a shame since with the RIS you can attach flashlighs!..... But then again, with the CQB configured, the "lag" of the rifle is less noticeable, which is precisely the intention, to fight in close environments. Hope this helps mate!.....and sorry....don´t have videos of these trials to show them. Cheers. PS: Forgot to mention the bipod. Personally I didn´t feel any difference having it, dispersion wise.

Nice vid man....maybe I would have done the same....take out the really fishy guy....with a "sniper appearance"... :P ....Maybe the note was a bit too much...but hey!...this is Dayz......cheers!

Nice vid!....the end is just...unexpected :P ! LOL

Dear Developers: Please stop making updates. There is no joy waiting for them, since when they are finally here there is only more bugs to deal with. Played a couple of hours today with the 0.47 and I found: 1. Melee weapons bugged: not making sounds, not hitting as they are supposed...and after some zeds being killed....nightmare! no more use for them and your weapons dont work or fire.....so run for a safe place....log out and log in. 2. FPS drop: makes the game impossible to play right now. Thank you. 3. Zeds still going thru walls and doors......mesh what? 4. CR527: beautiful design...magazines a true rarity (i am ok with this actually) BUT: you can chamber it...yes....and the bullet is shown outside the rifle, floating around the trigger....backwards! 5. The iconic M4A1 it is just a sweet memory now...lost in the sea of bugs.....along with the ammo or magazines..... 6. AK101: havent been able to find a magazine....have to give it time I guess...but since it uses the long gone 5,56 mm...I dont think is wise to have it.... On this last 3-4 months...we are moving 2 steps forward and 4 backwards....I KNOW it is alpha, I know it is broken.....I have played more than 800 hours now.....and to be honest, I have had tons of fun and the investment is fully paid off already....but no fun anymore..... It is a shame, since the game had such a great concept.....

What do you need to Fish: 1. Fishing hook (have found them almost everywhere, but really hard to spot) 2. Worms! this can be obtained only in open spaces with the shovel or farming hoe. Please bear in mind that both tools get ruined after some strokes. 3. You will need a fishing rod. Ashwood tree is the only one providing it. In order to chop it...you will need an ax. Also gets damaged as you use it. 4. Fishing rod fits inside the large back-packs or subs the slot for mellee weapon....but you can use it to kill zeds also! 5. You will need rope....find it in wharehouses.... 6. Craft you fishing rod: place rope in rod....place worm in hook...place hook in rod.......all set!....... well...not quite......you need to prepare them!.....and cook it..... 1. Find a pristine knife. This is a plus, since anything else but pristine will make you lose lots of food content. (expressed as percentages) 2. make a fireplace: either with a piece of paper or rag with sticks. 3. If you dont have sticks, craft them: chop down a tree...select the log with you ax and make thirds. 4. Matches!!!!....without them....well no fire!...... 5. place the logs inside the fireplace and ignite with matches on hand. 6. Prepare the fish: one fish = 2 fillets. Fireplace can hold 5 pieces. Do not place the fish in the slots, but rather on top of the description of the fireplace...this way you can fit the 5 pieces 7. Wait to be cooked...I have been trialing the time that it takes for this to happen....it varies greatly from 5 minutes up to 15 minutes....weird... 8. Sit, enjoy and eat....sparkle some good conversation, beer and good company and you are set! :) Hope it helps guys!.....cheers!

Yes! we do fish.....basically the role playing we are doing right now goes like this: 1. As a bambi...you are allowed to eat and drink until fully healthy anything you can find: cans, sodas, etc 2. Once with full health you are no longer allowed to pick up, drink anything. Drinking is only allowed in ponds or rivers....not whells. 3. Only food intake you can have is either hunting or fishing. 4. Since animal AI is so bad right now, you can only hunt at 100 mts distance....to make it a bit challenging!. In order to accomplish the above, you do need time and effort to craft/loot needed materials. But really adds content and some realism to the game. Then once you are fully geared.....go PVP or whatever you like!.

Acheron: This is one of the many bugs the game has for the moment. Normally happens when you loot a gun from a dead body or a mate gives you one. If you cannot aim (first or third), it means it is bugged. The only solution I have found is to log off and log in again. Then it should work just fine. I dont know what it is.....hope it helps! Cheers.

It was a REAL pleasure that me and my mate were able to kick you pathetic backside. You handled to ruin my shirt, my pants my food and let me all beat up. But finally, two honest players just taught you a lesson: LEARN TO PLAY RIGHT. Not even with your weird hacks and vodoo shit, you were able to defeat us. We killed you, recuperated my hardly earned M4 that you managed to steal from me while unconcious and we are healthy, fat and enjoying life, but above all: we are DEEPLY satisfied that we were able to ruin your miserable way of playing. Truly yours, Pizuicas and Kantinero.....

Well Dennus, the intention behind this post are some: 1. There are some useless players that need hacks to play. 2. Some not even with hacks are good or fair :) 3. If I ever get killed by one of these maggots......I wont feel bad....they did it with cheats 4. No intention of reporting this but just to transmit the great feelling of playing the game "right" (that is without hacks) 5. The awesome sense of defeating an opponent that clearly has some advantages Anyhow.....cheers mates!

This is a zombie game....what did you expect?.....zeds are just fine....other bugs are far more annoying.

I have been playing for 300+ hours now. I am a legit player that will kill or die under same grounds and under an even fight.....but I have experienced "funny" events when I am ready to kill.....3 times since yesterday and 5 times to my squad mate: you discover another player, start the hunt/chase....and when you have them on your sights.....server restarts......lots of ghost players running around and sometimes (2 out of 3) I got killed.....beach it is....but this game is going to the drain due not only to hackers, but to the probability of never being developed to even Beta. I am ok with the lack of content (since I accepted the Alpha terms), glitches, poor stability....and so on....but hackers?.....hell no..... My squad mate was running away from danger...and he got back....to ground zero after 250 mts or so of running...obviously he was killed. And no, server never restarted....you just log in again a run away from the area or you will be under the "restarting grounds" again....

Awesome.....! fix that lag and I will be happy!.... :thumbsup:
