  1. Good idea. I didn't know we had a suggestions forums. I'll post it there.
  2. Oh hehe. It works for me so far. You can hear them going systematically from room to room. I set my AK (or whatever I find in the barracks) to full auto and use exactly 1 full clip per encounter. Sometimes I'm bleeding a touch but I just bandage and wait for the next. Sometimes the server hoppers are polite and bring you cooked meat.
  3. After breaking legs two spawns in a row, I headed straight for Cherno hospital and grabbed a couple morphine. Sucks they never spawn anywhere else but it is probably realistic. Grocery stores don't sell morphine (well maybe if they had a built in pharmacy).
  4. I kill server hoppers. Go to the barracks, hide in one of the rooms, wait patiently while watching TV or something, turn up volume and listen for footsteps, aim at door, prepare to loot a fresh corpse and Alice pack. While it does take some wait time... it doesn't take much. I don't recommend the last room or the bathroom. Pick one of the middle rooms.
  5. It is a little ridiculous being knocked out with 9k blood but whatever. I'm sure things will be balanced someday. I discovered today that the axe has like a 6 foot range so you can snipe 20+ zombies coming into the building without ever getting touched.
  6. I don't even try for exotic equipment anymore. I just head straight for the military tents or barracks and kill people there. You'll find a gun on the way and if you are patient you always get 2 or 3 kills before dying.
  7. Watches are super popular nowadays Morphine is super rare Food seems very common for me at least
  8. Contact Battleye directly. I'm back in the game.

    DMR ?

    http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2255106&page=1#Post2255106 Arma 2 engine also accounts for wind. I'm not sure if DayZ uses this feature of the engine or not. I usually ignore it but then again I don't fire at extreme ranges. Maybe 600m at most.
  10. It does work but the hardware (TrackIR) works better). I've ordered mine. ~$150 it is used in many games.
  11. I think this thread is a priceless way to start my morning. Thank you.

    The flies!

    I hear flies everywhere and there are no bodies to be found. I'm going to go with "yes."
  13. My last 20 or so deaths have all been to players. Was there a time in the game where zombies were the real threat? Now don't get me wrong... I get many kills on players as well. They often have the best loot and it saves me from going through countless piles of empty cans. I just think the game could be so much more than a large map deathmatch. I don't know what the solution is. The only threat is other players. Zombies are easily dealt with once you've have a bit of experience in the game. Maybe if zombies were more dangerous it would force teamplay? I don't know. Random thought at lunch time. Back to work for me.
  14. The more useless sneak becomes, the more people are just sprinting to survive. Routinely seeing people sprint through cities with 10 zombies in tow, running into buildings, speed looting and running out the back side of the building. It is possible to just ignore zombies now. In fact it is encouraged.

    Zombies in buildings

    Most zombies in buildings just sit staring at a wall while I loot the place. They definitely aren't a threat.
  16. Isn't it funny how the loot system was awesome a couple weeks ago. Now with every patch there are items missing?
  17. - spawn into game - stand up and ensure sprint is on (double-tap shift if it isn't) - run to town - ignore zombies chasing you - find building - run in and loot anything useful - run out and find another building - if you see another player, pull the zombie train over him - once you are geared commence the death-match killing of other survivors
  18. The game was spell-binding a couple weeks ago. The recent changes have done something wrong to the game. I don't know what it is. I just know it is less fun than it once was.
  19. You can pull 30 into a building and they all drop agro on you. I want to be scared again...
  20. Six updater did a little update this evening. I've hit maybe 20 servers trying to figure out why I can't see any loot unless it is a pile of wood, binoculars, hatchet or other "tool." Is there a way to roll-back my update so I can at least play on the 1.7.1 servers?
  21. It was working fine all day. I made the mistake of logging our and reloading. Six updater did some download and it has been broken ever since. I've found ~30 hatchets, ~6 compasses, ~6 watches, 1 makarov with 2 clips, a few hundred tin cans, 1 map, some tires, jerry cans, scrap metals, etc. Not a single can of food or water/coke/pepsi. Basically my life lasts until I starve. Even an uninstall and reinstall doesn't fix it. Please don't make me play Diablo 3 until the next update comes out. Off to bed.
  22. Any food? I've been through ~100 buildings and had to log for fear of starving. Don't have tools needed for hunting either.
