I've found three trucks now,all in working order without even looking for them.Just stumbled upon them,fired them up and went for a ride.I was not able to figure out a way to refuel them at a filling station and the only fuel cans I have found have never been around a vehicle so did not get to try a fuel can yet to refill a vehicle.The trucks are loud and ok to rip across the map for a reason but not very practical to use for every day travel as some have mentioned there very loud! There out there,and like all things in DayZ if you really really want it then it will be very very hard to find.... if you do not want it or need it or are not looking for it..... well then whatever it is spawns all over the damn place :lol:

Been looking around a lot for a hacksaw but have yet to see one in the new patch ? Forgive the title typo,not sure how I can edit the title

Thanks everyone,made a sweep through three medium sized villages and finally found a hacksaw in a small wooden shed wich had a lean-to on it. Thanks again :beans:

saw hacks lol ok thanks,I've been in and out of every wooden shed ,garage ,shop etc. I can find yet no hacksaws for me I'll keep looking though... thanks again :thumbsup:

yup.let's limit the amount of servers.... if someone does not like one,just get rid of it! I prefer a lot of servers myself,it alows for more choices I would eventually like to see a private hive for each server so gear can not be brought from one server to another thus eliminateing server hoppers totally as there would be no advantage to hop server to server to server just to loot airfields and military bases like so many people do!

Hmmm... I wonder what you will now be doing...with all those bullets! more bullets than brains...er food I mean lol

I really only haveone word to describe this video.... well... it not even a word! ?

Well PU Scope on the SKS is new to me,but then again I only play this once in awhile ever few months or so... and I have not carried an SKS for around a year now...so maybe I just noticed it then lol The bugs are not even irritating in this patch,compared to eralier patches that were game breaking patches This is the first patch I have ever gotten decent frame rates and smooth game play Zeds although are few and far between behave ok and are starting to not clip so much ete so ya,I feel the Devs have done a very good job on this patch,and coming from me that says a lot as I usually have nothing but complaints on there patches... and.....this patch has not even been hotfixed yet! Keep up the good work ,the game is truly starting to get somewhere IMHO

I seem to be finding what I want and need in the usual places,the items expected seem to be there.Food is everywhere,so I am getting fat and lazy... A lot of new cool items,and features...such as adding a PU Scope to the SKS amd other such things. Seems like an excellent patch so far IMHO What bugs there are almost seem irrelavant compared to all the good stuff I have seen done on this patch, especiually with smoothness,the game is running great!

That pretty much sums it up!

where are you,if I am somewhat close I oblige you with a mercy bullet ;)

pen and paper,write down which server you enter and if you like it after playing favorite it ;) I use the filter option myself,filtering out all but the servers I play on opting for playing on one server at a time until my Character dies,then back to pen and paer trying other servers until I find another that a like to run another character on... again then playing only that server until I get killed and using the Flitering option so that specific server is displayed with all or most other servers filtered out. I enjoy doing a whole life on a server,more so than jumping a character server to server looking for action,loot or whatever Make it easy to know which server you play,when you play the same server over and over again ;)

I've lived the Hermit lifestyle for now more than 250 hrs with almost 600 hrs into the game.I'd like to see an hour counter in the game as I keep track of hours per character,living one character per server until death do us part.Upon dying,I choose another server to live another life. I only fight when provoked into it and will try an communicate rather than KoS'ing someone ,although mostly I sneak and hide out practicing avoidance.I keep lotting for prostine items,carry enough food,ammo and medical supplies.Trying to hunt to survive is my pastime now inbetween doing raids for items I am running low on,usually patching my clothes eating and drinking with a sowing during a fire while waiting for items to cook or even just warming up. Guns and weapons I usually carry as many as I can opting for a.357 and a Mosin or SKS, and or an AK with the new High caliper pistol with the scope as another nice pair. As I find clips I then look for automatic handguns rather than carrying the guns without clips always prefering the .357 for Pistol of choice. I prefer the lone wolfe,sneaking around style of playing,and I am a definate gear monger... So I dunno,living a hermit life running around hording stuff seems like an ok way to spend time in DayZ to me IMHO Once persistance is running smooth,I plan to horde even more ..... :0)

lol.some think they know everything sorry but never been on sniper hill,I hate Electro and spend mytime up North I do actually play the game,and play it the way it was meant to be played The LRS for me was more for looking than shooting and now the game has binoculars I no longer use the LRS ;) You should know the saying.... if you do not have anything good to say then don't say anything at all Your post was useless and a waist of time let alone showing how arogant you are! and I'm not your Son,or even close in age to be called someones Son another statement showing how arogant you are trying to convay how much older,wiser and mature you are than others... unbelievable someof the garbage I read on this forum,it was awhile ago you posted...but then I have not been around for six months or more....

I appreciate the advice,I try to search and read but I find the forum difficult to navigate thanks again for the informative post!

Ah,so the portable burners don't work for warming up,I've been trying the same thing lol

I have dies once from Hypothermia ,I was in that condition for a long time running around trying to figure out how to get warm. Hypothermia doesnot create an ilness or bacteria but drops the body core temperature.Uusually ends up with the victim becoming disorientated,which this system does not do. Hypothermia is known to have people take there hats and jackets off,wander around in a somwhat drunken type state and eventually they lie down and go to sleep and die. I on the other hand,had the Hypothermia icon come on,kept running around searching fora way to warm up and eventually just fell unconsious and died a few moments later. I now have a coalman stove and propane bottle,matches and an axe but I have yet to figure out how to use the matches,the stove or the axe to cut wood for a fire. I right click on everything and no use becomes of it just allowing me to Inspect the items ? Any tips on staying warm,and using the implemented ways of trying to stay warm ? Running should warm a person up,although you should get sweaty thus wet then and when stopping get cold faster then sitting idle after running.

If you DO NOT read the posts,why are you even commenting in the thread then ? some of you Die hard DayZ Fanboys are just too much LOL

The Medic has hit the nail on the head as they say... He has my Beans!

I myself have moved onto Arma III wastelands and Altis life and it's amazing compared to what can be done in DayZ SA At least the game runs excellent on perfect settings,and there is a lot to do other than run around in a forest with nothing to do but go loot cans of beans! If....and it is a big IF IMHO that if DayZ EVER...gets finished it will be too little to late .... do to the leaps and bounds that others are putting out in the gaming World I really like DayZ,but the development sucks and they way they go for quantity over quality when working on this game is getting them nowhere except loosing players! Fan Boys can whine and bellyache all they want,this DEV Teama needs some harsh cirtisism from this community,and they need to listen that cirtisism. As I am sure they will not continue work on a game for a handfull of Fan Boys which is soon all to be left playing DayZ if Development does not start to get there act together! I have become so dissalutioned with how DayZ is being developt I don't even try there patches until the hotfix comes out lol and even then,last patch I played all of five minutes then wondered now what to I do..... lol Boaring....Yawn!

With the results from last few patches it is obvious none of the DEVs check anything out before releasing there patches! So much gets broken with every patch from these guys,they really need to learn some priority's and maybe sart actually fixing something rather than just going for quantiy over quality lol

Yup,your Dupid!

Excellent ideas,I would like to see horse especially for travel more then vehicles to be honest A dog as a companion with a Bird of Prey .... what more could you ask for Be cool,that's for sure!

At 300 to 400 m it is easy to get head shots lying prone with a scope,although finding suitable places with low grass is a problem lol At 600 m I aim just above the head around say 6 inches then 12 inces ofr 700 m and then 18 inches to 24 inches above the head for 800 m I try to make sure a get a frontal or back view rather than a side view of target for more coverage on body,also trying to set up for a spot where the furtue target will stop as when opening a door before going in a building,or in a building through the window where the target will be entering through that doorway 700 to 800 m shots I bthink are a bit out there for the Mosin and that the rifle is more than capable and deadly at 400 to 600 m Anyone doing well at 700 m shots has a lot of practice ,and a good eye!
