This is terrible. Had to rewatch it with the sound on, damn dude, you know how to take advantage of a situation xD :beans:
-
You're probably logging in just as a populated server reset. Naturally the people that got booted off would log back in around the same time.
-
They need handwashing then, and a 50% chance to get e. coli or some shit if you don't wash up.

Experimental Branch saw many changes in 0.44
amiasfree replied to SmashT's topic in News & Announcements
Dat roll of leather/fur tho. Please tell me we're gonna be able to craft some mountain man gear. -
Sprint towards the double doors leading to the outside as teh server loads the building, that's how I got out. Found any loot that spawns in there yet? I found a few sodas when I was stuck there once.
-
Oh man finally, I'm tired of getting chased down and beat to death before I can even make it to a tree line on those full EXP servers :'D EDIT: Jebus I hope this brings back nighttime too.

Removal of South Coast spawns can't be due to Balota
amiasfree replied to hannibaldaplaya's topic in General Discussion
Ah I see. Seems silly though, you'd probably be just as likely to 'wake up' anywhere during an apocalypse. Unless they come up with an official backstory for the players as to why we all spawn on the beach, but that would kinda be counterintuitive to the sandbox/RP side. -

amiasfree replied to hannibaldaplaya's topic in General Discussion
Tents drop handguns + mags like its nobodies business. Other than that, I guess Zeleno and that one base in the forest would be really close too, people would ignore the east most likely. Really though, I don't see why we don't have completely random spawns across the entire map. -
Features that can only be accessed through cooperating with other players, such as base building and vehicle repair. Random traits that give a player a certain skillset (carpenter, electrician etc), something that would give your char's life actual 'value' to the server's community. There would still be KoS, griefers, bandits and what-have-you, but it would certainly reduce it imo.

Didn't you make this thread the other day? Get head shots and you don't have to worry about it. Also it will be balanced later on, the fact that some stuff doesn't get ruined shows that they are at least attempting that.
-
Disagree. Players equal death which mean restarted char which means, fuck it, I'm done playing for the night. Nothing about this game encourages playing with other players, *everything* about this game encourages playing by yourself, or with a couple of friends you made *outside* the game. Heck, I've read a forum mod on here saying 'don't like people killing you? stay away from people', (something to that effect) sounds like an endorsement for single player to me. Which is kind of silly when I see the same people here crapping on someone for making a peep about wanting single player. Anyways, won't we have single player once we get the ability to make a LAN?

Fresh spawn that tried to knock me out while I was alt-tabbed in a bush. Took no less than three FNX mags emptied in a 3rd person panic xD Edit: ...incidentally this is my only kill via firearms. ;)
-
I know that feeling. I love this game, and where its going excites me to no end. But in the end, it doesn't matter because the players are awful. :murder:
-
Have me a gun? Just merry them? What am I reading here.
-
Oars that could be used as melee weapons, same with broken beer bottles. And there would be water bottles that aren't full of holes that could be used as water containers.
-
Nice idea! It would definitely add to the ambiance as well, the beaches are a bit too clean. I'd like to see different types of boats and stuff too that have washed up with loot as well.
-
Yeah nice vid, but the guy breathing :lol:
-
Yeah you can't meet players in-game, they'll just kill you. If you meet any, kill them if you can or run away. If you want this game to be 'multiplayer' you have to get people you know from outside the game to play with you, otherwise just look at other players as hostile NPCs with derpy AI. Edit: Look in barns, tool sheds etc for a starter zombie killing weapon. Best weapons so far are pitchfork, farming hoe, splitting axe, and fireaxe. Two shots kill a zed with everything other than fireaxe, which is a one hit kill itself. You can also easily box a zed to death but to do that you need to be able to circle strafe around it without getting hit.

[Experimental 0.44] Zombies are fixed?
amiasfree replied to scriptfactory's topic in General Discussion
Devs have said that the melee taking so long to kill zeds is a bug and won't make it to stable. I disagree with being able to ankle-chop a zed once and get a instakill though. -
Why does the cross bow do more damage than the m4?
amiasfree replied to taco86's topic in General Discussion
Since we went from M4 vs crossbow bolt to simply gun vs knife/stabbing, I figured a .22 comparison would be more appropriate. .22 is the most common ammunition in the world, or something like that, right? Also I have to disagree, if you were stabbed in the foot, depending on how it was done you could easily lose half or all of your foot. One thing is for sure is that the severed nerves would render your foot permanently numb at best and unusable at worst I'm not saying its as effective as a gun, but a blade can do much more than superficial damage. If you were shot in the chest with a crossbow, do you really think you'd be able to do anything after than other than lay there wishing you were dead, if it didn't collapse your lung or pierce your heart? -
DayZ Experimental | More people are silent and do not want to talk?
amiasfree replied to theswedishcathead's topic in General Discussion
That's my experience even on stable. I haven't heard a person talk or seen them type in 167 hours played, with at least four or five 'friendly' encounters. -

amiasfree replied to taco86's topic in General Discussion
Shoot yourself in the hand with a 22 pistol. Know stab yourself in the other with a huge combat knife. -
Varmint rifle from new vegas? I seriously want to see craftable single shot pipe rifles of all calibers though.

So I log in on Experimental, into the shed behind the grocery store in Starry. I immediately hear a mosin shot, someone taking down a zed I think in my head. So I ready my sawed off, and say 'hello, I'm friendly, just heard a shot' etc, no response. I wait a bit, then take a look around, nothin' doin'. Figured it was just a sound glitch, so I head to some unlooted garages looking for a PU scope. Open one up, lo and behold a player pops up looking at me, mosin raised. I'm ready to shoot too, but we don't. A zed goes after the first player it seems, then towards me, I kill it while still in the garage with my shotgun. Player pops back up, by then I've raised my mosin and give a wave, he moves off. Cautiously I move around the side of the garages and spy five or so players screwing around 'awesome' I think, and say so, coming out from behind cover and put my hands up, saying 'sup guys'. Needless to say, even after I complimented their gaslamp and was awed by the one guy's crossbow skills taking out a zed, I was capped while typing, single shot to the head. I could hear them drinking my sodas and dividing up my ammo as I lay there dead. I will have my revenge! I hope you stick around guys, cause I'm almost back with an SKS (with a PU scope) and more than enough ammo to kill you all and I ain't gonna be so passive :P As an aside... why do people never talk in this game? Even friendly encounters I've never once heard someone talking into their mic or seen them type in direct chat. Its kinda lonely :(

Well, every person I've ever met in game is mute xD Update on the Hunt: Its over, got ganked by a guy chasing me with a pistol. Already playing my calm-down game Starbound. This game is bad for my heart :thumbsup:
