It might be random though.. it doesn't happen to me everytime. Luckily bandages are almost everywhere.. I always keep at least 4. two on me and two in my pack. Also there's a chance for it to heal on its own as well.. which I can confirm is working.

They were made stronger along with the LOS implementation. They just need to work out visibility and hearing, then it will be more about evading them and the damage they do won't seem so devestating.

Oh so you are here purely to alpha test and report bugs etc and have no fun? cmon dude thats horseshit and you and i both know it. sure you will report some bugs but the real redason you are playing is to have fun. Of course I want to have fun. And many of the previous and even the latest updates I am having fun. But I keep in mind that some changes will probably suck and I may have less or no fun while they're being sorted out or tweaked. I can understand frustration but I try to use it to provide constructive feedback when I can. I'm not great at it, but at least I'm not always threatning to leave or asking for rolebacks. Some people have had good suggestions about rolling back and having specific servers to test newer patches.. that sounds understandable. But a lot of people just want it rolled back for selfish reasons. I see what you're saying though.. I may have worded my response a little harsh. I figure the most fun will come once they've moved on from Alpha.. could be awhile though. I only said that because he stated it's a video game and thus "should just be fun".. well it's an early Alpha version and not even close to moving on from this stage.. it takes time. I guess we can't expect the exact same degree of patience from everyone.

Not sure why everyone is complaining...
RachetSmurf replied to Arsynik's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Same here. I don't mind helping people out if they're having trouble with the changes.. but I personally have not had any trouble adapting. Obviously, new players might find it harder since they're just beginning but the forums have more then enough helpful information to start out. -
Ok, now once was funny but 3 times is a bit much..
RachetSmurf replied to Kashus's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You didn't post a solution' date=' and the "solution" I posted was just repeating HIS idea of a 15 minute timeout except I renamed "broken" to "sprained" you fucking gerbil. Realism has nothing to do with your preference in this case. Whining about realism and then being okay with morphine fixing bones all in the same post is my definition of retarded. No one cares what you choose. I'm not posting for you' date=' I'm posting for everyone to see how stupid you are. [/quote'] This thread has lost control due to your inability to control yourself and emotions. I'm sorry you can't say two words without insulting someone. Your only goal now is to defend the OP who was obviously venting with a very undetailed clarification of the problem then congratulate yourself on what you perceive to be witty. No, I read his post and it definitely belongs in the suggestion section. Sure, Rocket will read it but if he really cared about describing the problem he would not have posted with the tone and form he did.. this was frustration and venting.. and even that's ok if he provided good information. Also it's not that unique an issue. And no matter what you think about what I've said already.. I just gave my opinion (even if you don't care about it) and I did not insult anyone. Anyway, this is not productive anymore so post whatever you want. I'd rather actually assist and discuss with those who aren't looking to stroke their own ego. Enjoy the thread. -

RachetSmurf replied to Kashus's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Listen, that was just my opinion. Your need to insult and aggravate and then provide an equal if not the exact same type of solution that I pointed out achieves nothing. If you want to hate that's up to you.. I prefer to just ignore your posts going forward. Yes, in my opinion morphine seems preferable to a timer. And if realism matters at all.. I choose that. Obviously civilized discussion is beyond you... but I'll just ignore your next barage of insults. I have no intention of dealing with people like that. -

RachetSmurf replied to Kashus's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
No, the fact that's is Alpha is the very reason why it's being irritating doesn't matter. It's not in a stage meant to appease or make people's game play good or bad. It's in a testing phase and we've been allowed the opportunity to assist in its development. If you're irritated then you're obviously not interested in simply providing feedback to devs. You're actually playing it.. with the intent to progress.. even though it's an Alpha. You can get mad an curse at anyone who says "Alpha" but it's a fact.. accept it.. or just do something else until it's in Beta or beyond. I'm not saying that as a thread or insult.. you and him will be much happier until then. -

My Dear' date=' *flaws* belong in the bug reporting forum. Your frustrations with this game are fair consideration, but please review the million other threads concerning the very same topic before relentlessly repeating the same tired old shit. [/quote'] Than why are flaws being posted on announcements in the patch notes. Oh that's right, because we're allowed to do so. The OP wasn't even inflammatory. Your responses are not warranted, nor required, nor wanted. I disagree. His post lacks a lot of detail and is not very constructive. It seems more like a rant to me but that's just my opinion. People can use the excuse that they're "just" providing feedback.. but it seems to me a lot of these posts show way to much emotion and not enough real detail. Also there are lots of threads on these issues.. not to mention this is more of a suggestion. Sounded to me like he was complaining about personal gameplay.. not making a suggestion, providing possible solutions or even clearly defining the exact issues. It also did seem like bugs to me.. not just suggestions alone. Take the time to gather the details and fill the form out. If you REALLY want things to change.. then that should not be an issue. Otherwise, I think OP is just venting. -

Or.. bare with me.. it's an Alpha and he's just testing shit out. He doesn't "need" to do anything.. and instead of deciding what will happen if he doesn't do things a certain way.. just wait and see instead. In the meantime, go test, report bugs, suggest... suggestions. -
Looking for players to record DayZ series!

I was able to add you. What times are you looking at for this weekend? (timezone?) -
Seriously what happened Rocket?

You bought Arma 2, not Dayz. Also this is an Alpha so please read the 1000 other threads first.

[VIDEO] It seems the bandits are worse
RachetSmurf replied to TheCoalVideos's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
I've played on multiple servers and haven't run into this much. I also never run to big cities and don't stay on the coast line. I think some unlucky few just choosing the wrong servers by luck of the draw. IMO the unpredictability of this game and ever evolving nature is what keeps me interested. Hope you next sessions prove more fruitful. There's a lot of good posts on how to survive. Check new player section. -
Think I experienced this.. has to do with who has what beta version installed. The people I saw chatting in the side chat were all having technical difficulties.. so either did not have beta installed or did not have latest. When I play on servers with latest beta and DayZ, only 3 chats are enabled. Direct chat also works and side is disabled. I was however able to see their chat in side, but not respond. I didn't submit a bug because I think it's a Arma 2 engine issue.

I'm finding the game unplayable and it seems not matter what, you agro zombies
RachetSmurf replied to Enfrozt's topic in New Player Discussion
Duplicate thread. This has been posted 100 times. Please use search function then share feedback in an existing thread.. preferably the oldest one. Feedback is great, but no need to start brand new threads. -
Helicopter lost all fuel and is impossible to refuel

I believe Vehicles/Tents have always been server specific. They've never been able to transfer between servers. Is this what you meant?

Prone all day long... when to crouch nowdays?
RachetSmurf replied to stimpen's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The zeds in 1.7 were pretty close to perfect. All that had to be done was to increase their ability to detect close range proners' date=' which I don't think would have been too difficult. Right now it's pretty insane what is happening. The sound is also off, Zeds pinpoint you exactly when that shouldn't be the case. [/quote'] It was pretty decent in 1.7. I'm not entirely sure why the visibility was increased so much since. After he locked their visibility to their body direction (opposed to from their eyes) it was working well. Again, think he's playing around to see what works. -
Crouch running now brings in zombies from a mile away?
RachetSmurf replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This topic is covered in many threads.. probably just in the last 3 hours alone. -
This post has everything you need for a good investigation. Lots of details, clear issue, posted in the right forum section. Good job buddy! I'm sure this is now a priority on their list to fix.

Double barrel shotgun seems a little...lame?
RachetSmurf replied to Xianyu's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I think it's a good idea to have both great and crappy weapons in the game. Sometimes you just gotta use what you find and deal with it. Probably it's working the way it would irl, and I'm sure some weapons would not be that great against Zombies or people irl. The same experience of finding that crappy weapon but being forced to use it should be enjoyed in DayZ. :)
