I read the last line in Bill Murrays voice.

How's this game on a large hdtv?
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to Hiatsu2k8's topic in New Player Discussion
I'm using a LG 50" 1080p plasma, sitting about 1150mm (or just under 4 feet for the metric system impaired) from the screen, will never again game like a peasant on anything smaller. Just sit closer and bask in the glory of large screen gaming. I don't have any problems with font sizes or UI problems, try playing with font sizes in the windows personalization settings. -
Character is dying for no reason after the .50 update
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to killerbyte12's topic in Troubleshooting
Australian internet lag issues? Blame Abbot. Sounds like desync causing character to fall into the floor. -
I'd like to have useable wheelbarrows and shopping trolleys. Easy way to carry lots of loot, and I could role play as a homeless nutter with a trolley full of cans.

The Community's List of Suggested Weapons for Dayz Standalone (Version: 1.29)
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to alexeistukov's topic in Suggestions
I've used a broadhead off an arrow to skin and gut a goat before (forgot to pack a knife), anything sharp will do if you are patient. My father used to sharpen the end of the magazine spring in his .303 for just such a reason, it was always on him when he was hunting. -
Even if they only introduced mud like in Spintires it would be awesome, imagine trying to wade through waist deep mud fully geared (if weight made a difference), or using it to slow down/trap zeds.
-
As a keen 4 wheel driver and proud owner of a Russian racing tractor aka Lada Niva, I approve of this. Also I see Spintires is on sale in steam atm.

[Street Lights] Power Grid Maintenance
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
Maybe, but I think a portable generator should be required, and with it the need for things like fuel (diesel or petrol). -
You are a sick, sick man. I like you.

Whats the point of a non waterproof backpack for hunting? Maybe it doesn't rain much where you are, but I would dream of hunting with a backpack made of paper, canvas is tough and waterproof.
-
I'd also like to know whats happening, over the last few nights the group I run with have experienced this a couple of times. We have been hit inside closed rooms and out in the street. No one else (alive) had been seen, also no zombie moans that you used to get from the invisible zeds. Our only assumption is hackers.

I'm liking the new temperature mechanics, and although it is still in alpha phase, I believe it's working ok. Tonight a group of us were at NWAF, after a brief confused firefight which may or may not have involved some friendly fire incidents, the five or us sat around a fire to warm up and to take stock of our hunger and thirst. It certainly makes for a more cohesive experience when you sit around a fire crafting splints, sorting ammo and trying to decide if blood bag roulette is worth it.

Lockpicking: Minigames yes or no

Knock, knock motherfucker. -
The "ruined" status must go.
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Yeah, I do realise that we need to sharpen tools, but I have an axe in my shed that is easily 30 years old. I've lost count of the amount of firewood I have cut with it and yet it has not reached ruined status. I would hardly even say it's worn. -
lighting the massive hay stacks or bails on fire
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to Lewis_RFRU's topic in Suggestions
Add the ability to craft a flaming arrow with rags and alcohol tinctures and I'm sure there would be lots of fun to be had. -
The "ruined" status must go.
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I want to know how my woodcutter axe gets ruined from chopping firewood, I'm pretty sure that's what it's designed to do. -
New military base west of Myshkino
scrubbie_mcnoob replied to karlkurtz32's topic in General Discussion
First time I played the new patch, first item I found was a longhorn, second was a bag of rice. All fun and games until zombies come running, no ammo, no melee weapon a fist full of rags and doors that won't open. 10/10 will spawn again. -
That means I'd pretty much be a freshspawn everytime I log in, some of us have actual lives and don't get to play games every day.
-
As a bow hunter i'd prefer proper compound bows rather than gimpy crossbows, better range and accuracy. The only advantage of a crossbow is having a bolt cocked ready to fire compared to drawing an arrow on your target like a real man.
-
And have your pants dragging around your ankles, pro gangsta stylez.
-
That would be awesome, a perfect excuse to be shot in the face for looking like a total douche.
-
The Book Of Eli is the movie name I believe.
-
So much awesome in one short video. I would probably be too scared to play alone with sounds like that in game :)

Lag is a bitch, was playing with a mate last week who whenever he ate or drank while in a building either died or broke his legs. Bit of a problem when trying to hold the Novo town hall. At one point he died on the roof (from lag dropping him) I saw his body on the roof but was unable to loot it, then later after he had run back from spawning, he found his body four floors down. Lag is a bitch, related to alpha and a cousin of that bastard Murphy and his law.
