    Ducking Russians.

    I could swear I have seen this sequence before from the perspective from one of the other players in your group...that or the same stuff happens a lot in DAYZ.

    Mountain Pack vs. Hunting Pack

    In my experience once you are fully hydrated and energized (healthy) you don't need that much space for food and drink. 4 cans of food, 4 soda's and a canteen should be more than enough to keep you going for a long time. Also, why would you need more than 60 bullets for an SKS or Mosin and maybe 150 for an M4 unless you just play COD style. 30 rounds for a pistol should also be enough to get you out of any problem, if you need more ammo before you can find new you are probably dead any way. So yeah, I prefer the improvised backpack for both its subdued colour and slimmer profile.

    Allow crossbow to be put in backpacks.

    Pfff, some players seem to want to have it all on them: an M4 with ACOG and LRS and a suppressor, a FNX45 with suppressor, a sawed off shotgun in a chest holster and a crossbow in or on their backpacks and of course all with dozens of ammo for them...this game is about survival. you will need to decide constantly how to devote your precious space. Once we need to built bases, cars, gather firewood and maybe stones for fireplaces, hunt animals and carry their meat, looting pans and pots, medical supplies, gather gas cannisters back and forth to our camps and you will have no more room for probably one primary and maybe a back up pistol. And I think that is a good thing. This game should NOT revolve around weaponry imho although a lot of the topics are only about fighting.
  4. Found an engraved 1911 today in the jail in Zelenogorsk and a magazine in the barracks there :) I shot it 7 times at some zombies and then dropped it because I'd rather keep my FNX with double the capacity, sorry guys...

    Women Clothes

    Hey if I'm a man and only have a t-shirt on while I can see my own breath I would not hesitate one second to put on a wool dress or fur coat. Would actually be funny to see new spawns run around as drag queens once the weather / health system is implemented :) Health before ego I'd say.

    Wondering if I'm racist or not..

    Not more racist then the average hollywood movie, the black guy always dies first :) But, to be clear: I am a white guy and I play with a black character regularly...because a dark face won't show as easily in the grass as a white face...just being practical.
  7. Found binoculars today, take up 1 slot. But I was not able to look through it yet, gave this picture: Also found a quiver but could only put it in my backpack, could not put it on my person, also not when I removed vest/chest holster or my axe or by removing the backpack:
  8. Alternatively to RedditRescueForce you could try these guys: http://tmwdayz.com/index.php Jumping into Teamspeak works best.

    EXP-found binoculars and quiver

    Found it on the roof of a school.

    rockets vision

    Very mature response... I made same mistake as you, apparently they only work when standing atm, so there is a bug which no doubt will be solved. Try next time to be happy with new content that has been requested by many people, it is so easy to be negative. It seems you don't quite understand what the experimental servers are for.

    Ah ok, thanks!

    EXP-found binoculars and quiver

    Oh damn, I see it is already not news any more, sorry!

    Possible to setup controls like BF4?

    So, change the key bindings...I use my right mouse button to walk, left Alt to move back, forward slash to zoom, middle mouse to aim, m to crouch and so on. Takes a little while to set up to your taste but you can do it. Just make sure you don't make double key bindings.

    I'm so lost

    What does it matter where you are? Run along a road, find town, loot for food and drink, weapons and maybe a compass. Make a note of towns' names and we may be able to tell you where you are.

    I'm so lost

    Simply run towards the sun which will always be in SE/S or SW, no matter what time it is you will always end up at the coast / main road and can follow that to a town.

    I'm so lost

    What? If he is in Svetlo he needs to go south along the east coast to get to the ship wreck and further south to get to the other towns you mention. From Svetlo it is South-West to get to the closest airfield. You are sending this poor guy into no-mans land...

    un-crafting items

    So we can make a courier bag with a sack and rope and if you add sticks you have an improvised backpack. But if I find a different backpack or if I break a leg I can't reclaim my sticks/rope/sack and I think that should be possible and is realistic. I think it should be possible for nearly all items you can craft with the exception of for instance duct tape. Any thoughts?

    explosive ammo/armor piercing bullets

    I voted, no explosive ammo, no rocket launchers, and yes armor piercing ammo but only if it is very hard to find.

    explosive ammo/armor piercing bullets

    No not fucking with you but I still won't vote because I think there is a big difference between armor piercing and explosive ammo and are not in the same category. If you make 3 categories I'll vote.
  20. Thanks, in the channel now awaiting a medic :)
  21. UP---still need some help please. If my apparel scared the medics...I am no KOS'er or bambi killer, was going to the coast to aid new spawns and expected to die soon since I'm not that great at fire fights. I just don't want to die of hunger and thirst to kill this character.

    explosive ammo/armor piercing bullets

    I deleted my vote after realizing you don't know what you are talking about... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_metal_jacket_bullet
  23. I need a medic for my broken leg...was rock climbing and slid down :( Help would be appreciated! A. SAK B. I think morphine or splint (have rags but no stick) C. between Prigorodki and Elektro (near the lighthouse), at the well/buildings opposite the rock formation. I am in the bar behind the counter (stable / hardcore) D. I look military/camo, with M4, vest, hunting backpack and ballistic helmet. (like my avatar)

    Sounds not working

    Bump, I noticed this absence of sounds with the female character too today, so still not fixed (on experimental).
