Weyland Yutani (DayZ)

50 meters = no leading. To give you a scale: at 550 meters you need to lead your target the entire skiny length of the crosshair. Meaning, when your target falls into view at the end of the fat end of the crosshair, where the skinny line begins is when you fire. This method is completely accurate as I've done very little other than longe-range sniping since the beginning of SA and have well over 500 LR confirmed kills. We've timed bullet drops, made measurements, as well as fired thousands of rounds in live target testing [most of which are side-to-side angles]. If your 50 meter target was running from an side-to-side angle just put the crosshair on the very edge of his body and have your finger not relaxed and slighlty tensed on the button, not hovering above it. Remember, there is a 10th of a second delay or so in your brain activity from when your brain says to fire before your neurons actually send that information to your finger, another 10th of second delay or so if your finger is hovering, another if your finger is relaxed on the button and not slightly tensed, as well as another 10th of a second delay or so once the button is pushed and the gun fires. All of those combined can add up to a missing half second and a missed target. As you can see there are many elements to being a crack shot while sniping in DayZ.

Guys, OP is a troll post. Post count + non-no0b terminology [griefer]. I fell for it until I read the 2nd to last sentence. Well played though, got a laugh out of it.

SSSHHHH!

Hive: ExperimentalVersion: 0.44.123800 In this episode our research team previews the [not-so-new] new crossbow and binoculars. Following that, we have a chance meeting with an interesting character where we have a short house party as well as a quick freestyle demo. Last but not least, a gripping firefight at NWAF with a not so favorable ending. I know there are a thousand crossbow & binoc videos so feel free to FFW to the more interesting parts of the video which can be found below.

That would be awesome if they did this to Berezino. Then where would everyone go lol?

I shot someone with a crossbow in the chest and they flaked it off.

Too close to Tent City [NWAF & Balota]. More people would kill themselves to get to these loot bonanza sweepstakes.

Hive: Experimental Version: 0.44.123800 In this episode our research team will preview the new zoom mechanic, physics, audio bugs, zombie juggernauts, new sunset as well as an interesting chance encounter at NWAF. http://youtu.be/etniHNVHq9I Apologies for not getting this out sooner. Between work, play, editing, etc there isn't enough hours in the day. Day 2 coming in the next day or so and will include two more chance encounters that are very interesting to say the least lol. As always, thanks for watching! -Weyland

I know lens flares are new, but are optical flares new or have they been there the whole time? Thanks!

Thanks Irish! Enjoy some musical fruits. There is actually a bug that goes with it. I'll have a short vid up in the next day or so on it. Many will disapprove.

Location: Downtown Chernogorsk Co-ord's: 067 128 For those of you that do not know, the roof of Town Hall is accessible. Our research team will guide you on this simple climb. No experience necessary. Despite there being none in this film, there is a loot spawn on the roof. In my experience, shotgun speed-loaders frequently spawn here. If you fancy sniping, this is an excellent sniper post. Great view of the city as well as defensive enhancements. http://youtu.be/3ZdDjUj1fr8

Heard that one before. Not really worried friend. Anytime you want to do an 8v8 in Cherno, let me know what server you play on. I wouldn't mind getting back in Cherno, could be a good time. Take care.

Haha, no doubt! Hopefully your not all on the Silo. There are some defensive provisions on the roof of Town Hall. Sloped roof blocks east/west depending on what side your on if one wants to take that route. Also, there is a little nook on the bottom of each slope of the roof. Not the best, but not bad though.

Good point if your running Lone Wolf Ops. But If your in a group and want to have full control over Cherno, having someone on Town Hall is a good idea. If your at the southern clock on Town Hall you have a much better view of the streets of downtown Cherno as compared to the Silo.

From what I remember and correct me if I'm wrong, that was only on private servers as a result of ladders being put on them (or inside the wall) via 3d editor. I don't believe it came stock. If I'm wrong, please let me know.

Locations: North Eastern Sveltojarsk Co-ord's: 141 016 Stołowe Mountians; also known as the Table Mountains are a 42-kilometre (26 mi)-long mountain range in Poland and the Czech Republic, part of the Central Sudetes. The range is situated southeast of Krkonose Mts. The Polish part of the range is protected as the Stołowe Mountains National Park. The highest peak of the range is Szczeliniec Wielki at 919 m (3, 015 ft) a.s.l. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stołowe_Mountains http://youtu.be/xF9kvY_8WBI

Location: Sveltojarsk, Olsha, UnknownCo-ord's: 138 039 - 133 025 - 014 034 In this episode our research team will guide you to all Trinity Church locations. If we missed any, feel free to enlighten us. http://youtu.be/i7C4idEfKJ8

Thanks man! I appreciate the kind words.

This is one of the little things they threw in and didn't mention. For those of you that use a controller, whether its via Xpadder or Motioninjoy you would know that we haven't been able to use the right trigger for melee attacks. That is no longer the case and I enjoy being able to use my right trigger for melee attacks. Special thanks to the development team for sneaking this one in!

Yes.

Anyone know what the proper name for these are? Thanks!

Funny you bring this up as this annoys me as well. No idea where they got school from. If one loads up A2OA/3D Editor/Jon-C5 Editor the official name is A_Office01. I always took the 'A' to mean Administration and call that building the Admin Building. Not far off, but not exact. Office is the correct name. If anyone is interested, Post #2 by DropBearChick nailed it on the head. They are called Small Orthodox Church if you GIS them. There is a famous Russian Orthodox church on King George Island near Russian Bellingshausen Station in Antartica called the Trinity Church which is interesting as there is only three of them in-game. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity_Church_%28Antarctica%29 http://ultima0thule.blogspot.com/2011/10/southern-thule-church-in-antarctica.html This one is interesting! http://www.summitpost.org/tiny-orthodox-church-above/103513

Q3 for basic, Q4 for advanced and their Q's isn't exactly normal Q's.

No, I knew about the raising of the melee weapon when it was first introduced in experimental. It is possible it was an issue with Motioninjoy. A friend of mine uses an Afterglow wired with no external app and he couldn't get the right trigger to trigger melee attacks. I do remember some people in the forums a few months back complaining about not being able to melee with a controller so it was an issue at one point.
