  1. Hello there It's interesting that they were "roleplaying" to an extent, but it's daft they looted your flashlight (they don't (shoudn't) need it and may have been just griefing you). Plus shooting you is a bit pointless and is very griefy indeed IMHO. It would have been interesting if they had played at being armed forces and perhaps gave you some rations, some intel and then sent you on your way. Regardless, you at least did not loose anything of value and the next time you see/hear a boat hide! Rgds LoK
  2. Hello I'm an old OFP, VBS, Arma player and have been following the rise of DAYZ for quite some time. It seems that there are far more instances of Megalodayzamania appearing in game and especially on these forums. All the suffers of this: 1/ seem to insist that folk who don't play the game *their* way are idiots/morons/retards. 2/ Copy popular internet "memes" to reply to posts rather than coming up with any cogent argument or discourse. 3/Insist on pidgeon holing people into subgroups such as "Carebears" or "Bandits" 4/Focus on non relevant issues in threads rather than on the whole concept/topic. 5/Finally as with standard Megalomania have a super inflated opinion of them selves. Thoughts? Rgds LoK
  3. "You fit into every point except second one. Thoughts?" Interesting, can you explain your reasoning? I'd like to know. Rgds LoK
  4. "archaic, self-righteous views" crikey! Because of bit of light hearted banter/observational whimsy? I think one ought to relax a little. Rgds LoK

    Much ArmA 2 problems

    Hello there I use a program called Armarize to keep my mods/game up to date. Sixupdater is also quite good. Have a quick google or take a peek at the http://www.armaholic.com/ files section for them Rgds LoK
  6. Hello there, I like change, It's good and healthy, but I also like respect for other human beings. I am old. I may have been left behind. But, for me, that's where I'd rather be. I'm also surprised at the negativity this thread has bought, but also a little pleased that some folk *seem* quite nice chaps/chapesses. Im not perfect in any way but really a bit more pleasantness/thought/intelligence in the forums wouldnt go amiss. Rgds LoK PS, Man hugs to everyone.
  7. Hullo there @Neo, my pleasure. Always glad to help :) . Although, I will argue that 4Chan has been responsible for flashes of genius, I doubt we'll see the like here. But I'm no fan of the "chantastic" mindless reposters etc. @Mutagen_7B4 Yes, i have experienced that particular cess pit, it's an awful awful place, but as DAYZ was Arma2 based I suppose I expected a little more maturity. Silly Me. Rgds LoK
  8. Hullo Now with the delete this thread makes even less sense. Mod removal/edit needed perhaps? Rgds LoK
  9. Hello there I fail to see what this has to do with DAYZ, or am I missing something? Rgds LoK

    Removing stuff off-map

    Hello all In an open sandbox game, why not let folk store their items there if they want? IMHO it's a rather obvious and silly place to store stuff as there is no cover whatsoever. It's an obvious place to hunt for good gear that "leet" folk have hidden there thinking they are bright and are cool as they are semi "exploiting". For eg, in Tonic's wasteland map, for a while it became the "place to be" for some players. They always got raided and lost everything. IMHO it's a flash in the pan and once folk start trawling the boarders for good gear the "leets" will realise their mistake and it will be less of an issue. Rgds LoK

    DayZee or DayZed?

    Hello all Call me outmoded but I pronounce it "DAYS" Although does it matter in the scheme of things? Perhaps it's a sandbox title, so we can say it the way we want? Rgds LoK
  12. "What I learnt from DayZ: joe public has zero understanding of mental health" Hello there The above statement is true, but you are unlikely to change opinions in this forum. If you are concerned that the devs may be implementing systems which will make sweeping generalisations about mental health issues, then I would contact them directly. I doubt this is the case and any sanity systems will be no more offensive than those found in other games. Or if the Devs want any advice thay can always contact me via PM's. Rgds LoK
  13. Hullo there I wonder if the Yogcast "review" will increase or decrease this happening? "Raging" does seem to be in fashion at the moment on many forums. Yes, it's always been there but, I've really started to notice it in the past few years. Rgds LoK
  14. Thank you! missed that one. Rgds LoK
  15. Hello there IMHO buy the lot (DLC's) for Arma2. There's a vast amount to the game apart from DAYZ and in comparision A2 is fairly cheap. Lastly, do not expect to MAX out this sim. Not on any realistic rig. The RV engine is known to bring rigs down to their knees. There are tricks to get the best framerate out of the game, but this isnt BF3/Skyrim etc, essentially it's a slightly dumbed down milisim/training tool that's meant to simulate small scale ops. It's not here for the pretties. Lastly A2 with custom dynamic missions/gfx/sounds/new units is a phenominal game. DAYZ is just one aspect. Rgds LoK
  16. Hello there I too am having issues with oversensitive "Zeds". Even in a crouch and moving slowly I regularly get detected through walls and the quietest movement sound seems to aggro them for quite some distance. I havn't been able to use a gun for a while, Zed no's vs ammo is always against me so, crowbars/axes all the way. Definitely *feels* different in this patch. Rgds LoK
  17. Hullo there We are descending into memeness... rgds LoK

    IR Marker Strobe

    Hello there The strobe will... um, strobe (ie "flash") for those wearing NVG which helps them Posivtively IDentify friendlies. So, if you and your squad have strobes and NVGs you can quickly see who is on your side and who are enemy players/zeds. (unless the opposition has them as well!) Rgds LoK

  21. Hello there, To have the authentication files and an up to date install Google for the SIXUPDATER or Armarize. Your bikeys will be included and in the correct place. Rgds LoK
  22. hello there, Nope, you need to go read the statements on the forums. Several mods are in progress with dev help. No bottom kissing needed. They just need to make sure the proposed mods do not contain code/content is stolen/malicious/had no approval and also to a certain extent dont infract certain German laws. It's not ideal but far from a total halt to modding. Also why would they lie about it? It just hampers them to have the Bis contract the way it is. rgds LoK
