    Best places for loot? New to DayZ

    Novo and it's environs are pretty good.
  2. barnabus

    PLEASE HALP!

    Get you some pristine hiking boots then.
  3. Sub Base? Wow, I REALLY LIKE THAT! Excellent idea, I hope you are submitting designs to Bohemia...

    Were Gorka camo jackets ever implemented?

    Hmm, sure looks a lot like SS dot pattern to me. I know the Russians had one pattern of camo that even they referred to as the "SS pattern" because of how similar they were. This might be it...
  5. I hope that she did not eat that banana after laying it in the piss puddle.

    Is it me or do these Gorka jackets look like old SS camo?

    any point in having a sidearm?

    I find the FNX easier to maneuver around with in an urban environment and they are good for varmints and zombies too. I have mine out and ready when searching buildings and tents. I just find it more comfortable to use in tight spaces. Take this part for what it is worth, but I had a magnum and an FNX in my tac vest, dude unloads an SKS into me from about 10 meters. Ruins the vest and the pistols, I am not even bleeding or knocked down... So I found it useful but maybe not the way you are thinking...
  8. Because Brig is a Naval term like the one in Philadelphia (Army soldiers from the Northeast used to be confined there too) or on Ford Island (again, all services use this one too), the Army used to refer to it a Correctional Confinement Facility CCF hence the name Charlie's Chicken Farm (short term stays) such as Ft Sill (currently closed) or Ft Lewis (now a joint facility)or a Disciplinary Barracks (Long Term and Hard Labor) as in the one at Leavenworth (which the Navy also uses).

    Just shoot me.

    I'm with you, I am not a toy for some dick to play with. You wanna roleplay? Fine D&D fanboi go roleplay, but with some one else. I am not interested in your style of playing the game so leave me to mine and have the decency to respect that.

    2 things NEEDED to be fixed in next update.

    Don't worry, you will and it will piss you off.

    I find it sad that NEAF is still getting camped

    I have been getting wacked at the ATC but it isn't from snipers. Up on the second floor and higher the are some bad spots that give you the instant "DayZ Screen of Death". Happens quite often in fact.

    Has DayZ ever gotten you in real world trouble?

    Oh I am so with you, she says I act like I am back in Iraq when I am in game. She really, really hates me playing DayZ.

    poll what is best

    Glad I saw this before I posted it again and made myself look like any more of an idiot than I already am.

    Is looting at night much safer?

    TBH, lighting up a building with the gas lamp at night looks pretty damn cool, I just wish you could see the lights from much further away. If I see chem lights or flares at night I tend to go the other way as they are fairly new I am not too sure how long they persist. Zeds do seem to be less likely to agro at night unless you get right up on them. Personally, I feel safer at night than in the day.

    AKM vs SKS

    Sorry, are you saying it is there, but that it should not be functional? The break, or the notch on the upper right quarter of the barrel is there to redirect the gases to help push the weapon down and left. It does not do that.
  16. barnabus

    AKM vs SKS

    it's also the purpose of the muzzle break on the real AKM. It ain't there for "looks".
  17. barnabus

    AKM vs SKS

    The muzzle break on the AKM does not seem to do what it is supposed to. My pulls up and right something awful. The gases are supposed to go that way to help keep it from doing it.

    Annoying server resets...

    See the banner below, Aloha is for Tourists, and for the record, anyone on there named "admin" or "owner" is a big fat liar. Also "Barnabus" is NOT my name in game, so anyone using that name is also not the owner or the admin. It is not a clan server, I pay for it on my own and I am the sole owner and admin period.

    Annoying server resets...

    Mine starts at midnight, it seems to me though that most start at 1500

    Tents with wooden floors never have loot/gear

    The smallish round wooden floored tens still spawn loot. I don't mean the big officer tents, I mean like the ones that have the red cross on them. This is still happening in the experimental servers too btw.

    Print out of map?

    I actually purchased the Cherno map from Bohemia, not much good now since it has none of the recent stuff up north on it, still a nice souvenier. For awhile I was using the iZurvive map on my iPad. They keep the cherno + map regularly updated. You are aware that you can craft a full sized cherno+ map in game right? Just combine an E & W or N & S map and you get a pristine map of Cherno in all it's glory.

    Annoying server resets...

    Or you could stay off servers that don't let admins do those sorts of things yet. Or you could look at what time the server is at when you join and get a feel for the start time after a reset. Most will reset after 4 hours anyway. Below is from Gameservers.com; DayZ Standalone Servers - Alpha Version Please note: These are DayZ Standalone servers with current admin ability limited to kicking users and changing the server description. For more information about the game's development cycle and upcoming features, please visit: www.dayzgame.com The only thing I can control is what time the servers restarts daily and what time it is in game. I can add messages but not one that accurately warns of a reset at this point. I feel you though, Just when I was switching backpacks and moving gear between them I got caught in a reset. Lost a bunch of good stuff too and that was on my own server....

    I'm blind! Bug?

    If it is a burlap sack just get your friend to take it off.

    American compounds in Chernarus

    The reason for all this mystery behind the outbreak could be that it will be a future in game "theme park". Not one that would be required but an optional part of the game that players could participate in at thier leisure and, hopefuily, would not require a group to complete. Much like I am sure that an initial mission for new spawns will be "the quest for can opener".

    Karma got me

    Karma will always get you. It may not get you right away but it will get you. Count on that.
