    This but the stats should reset when you die. So it is tracked by life.

    What is the longest you have survived?

    That is like saying surviving is easier than laying Russian roulette. It is obvious you will die sooner than later. It depends on how people play. I frequent dangerous areas and avoid conflict by being cautious. I think insuring each area of NWAF is safe ad detecting danger is worth more than charging in blind and gunning some guy down in the spur of the moment. But yes people just camping in a safe place and not taking risks have little to be proud of. That's why I wish when you did die u were greeted with a pge that showed the following: Time alive Amount of kills this life Amount of zombies killed this life Accuracy this life Shots fired this life Average server population And then store this in the centeral hive and rank the players in various categories. Just measuring off kills he time alive means little.

    I would disagree if you can survive on servers frequented by clans who ply in groups of 3-5 and have fire fights with them and escape without dying that is a worthwhile exp. Who cares if you kill any of them.

    Any hardcore servers with day / night cycle?

    Yes and then people call u a server hopper or make lame comments about how you should log off somewhere safe when it is out of your control

    Any hardcore servers with day / night cycle?

    Most servers reset after 2-4 hours which is annoying... One night I was plying and literally hit 4 servers in a row who reset within 10 mins at a time. Was like ground hog day...spawn loot the same three buildings...no message received. Dolina trading pot has accelerated time u get day and night within 1 hour. It is fun to watch...night hits 90% people leave then 30 mins everyone come back. I sometimes sit outaide NWAF wait for night to hit and run in and loot it better day comes and everyone comes bac ;) Imo loot respawns should be devs number 1 priority

    How long do you wait if pinned down?

    In regards to waiting around when in 3rd person or not. First I find it comical that one players claims it is all waiting around and then another states it is the opposite for him and people just rush in.. Again it comes more to play styles. If you play like u do in first person on regular the yes people will see you and know they are trapped...but if you make sure your out of sight of his 3rd person view by backing off more you can fool them to make a run for it. In the barracks situation the players could hve hid outside the perimeter walls of thr barracks where they could see the yard around thr barracks but the player in th barracks cannot see over the walls til he gets out in the open. They could have trapped him when he tried to escape and killed him out in the open. However the attackers played it like they were in FPS mode which is why they died. They went and peeked in the front door with their head when they could have glanced through the windows from outside with no risk of being shot. Again it isn't a matter of who is more hard core but forcing yourself to adjust tactics to fit the situation. First peraon is favored by campers who like to sit in a concealed area and not move while they wait for their mark so he wont know until it is too late. 3rd person I regularly avoid these guys with ease..whereas squad play to herd other players like a pack of wolves is more efficeny.

    mp5s

    It handles very well for me at close range. Indoors it is the ideal secondary for a sniper it has virtually no kick and I have found in 3rd person it is just about as accurate as first person making it perfect for run and gun situations. It turns very well which is also important indoors. I could even forsee using this over my AKM when in doors just for the turning. Again if you want to use it as a primary then you might as well run from anyone not you close and personal

    Enough with the 3PP QQNo one ever said when they were playing metal gear solid "man im cheating so hard cause I can sneak aroundusing 3rd person to see around corners". Frnakly regular mode and HC modes of dayz are almost two dynamically different types of games. HC gives you a more classic FPS immersion approach meanwhile regular gives you a more tactical type of game play where you are better able to watch your back which forces both yourself and your enemies to approach each other completely different. Neither is wrong and both are enjoyable. In HC I play like I would play stalker but in regular it is like I am Snake in Metal Gear Solid. People talk about 3rd person as one side is always cheating by using it whe in reality both have it. Some players are better in first person and others are better in third. Both are different skill sets and valid types of game play If you cant handle 3rd person dont play it... On the other hand hardcore isn't really HC...just first person I would like to see a real hardcore mode akin to HC in battlefield. Less food less items no player pge indications etc.

    How long do you wait if pinned down?

    Seeing how your friend only shot at one guy and given their approach you could have assumed they were a group of 2-3 max. I say 2-3 because the barracks hve windows everywhere and the only safe place is the bathroom (u were rigt to take cover there where you could) and a larger group would use that to their advantage. You already knew one had a mousin from the shots fired. The second who came to flush you out did so in a risky way which implies they could only afford to send one forward. Had they been a larger group they would of sent one to two guys to check the windows on each side of the barrack before approaching from the front (arguably even with 2 he should have done that first). Their team setup was likely one sniper watching his buddies back while he tried to flush. I say possibly three because your friend could of injured the third enough so that he could not help flush. Personally I would never have bothered with the firsts body in the door way of the barracks. I would have gone straight to the bathroom and shut the door. It is a very secure spot to camp and you can wait there as long as you need to. The remaining sniper likely knew you were in there and also knew that at that position he had one shot to hit you or he would certainly die and so he left. Alternatively had you analyzed the situation and stayed calm you could have realized there was likely just a sniper left after he missed his shot and then rushed out and hit the tree line. At which point you would be in perfect shape to hunt him down.

    Tell your friend/squad to drink either at vybor, lopatino, the shack in-between grishno, or the well north of NWAF in the field accross the train tracks....no reason to ever drink there.. In those situations you did the right thing...the barracks are a death trap you dont want to get stuck in there..but I wonder why did you not aso your squad mates how many there were ? If one was exchanging shots with them he must have seen him.

    Random body harm

    happened to me in Police station
  15. Nothing to learn from these guys....camp in a position with very few entrances (one of which is a ladder and most dayz players see ladders as death) and then shoot anyone who comes in.... The camper has all the advantages: 1. No weapon sway 2. Limited area to guard 3. The ATC has military loot which attracts players like honey does bears 4. For NEAF the entrance to the ATC is mainly obstructed by a building right next to it so a sniper cannot flush him out from Long Range very easily.(assuming he camps the first floor) 5. if on the second floor the games clunky movement interface slows the player down as he comes upstairs making him an easy target for the camper. Scum of the dayz earth right there

    DayZ Hypotheticals

    1. nothing left to lose...Ill try and ambush them while they loot. Would depend quite a bit on which house they went into though 2. GTFO during the confusion 3. Shoot them as they come up. Anyone who just climbed that ladder has a death wish anyways 4.Cap them with the 1911 as they would now be classified as bandits and heros kills bandits
  18. i am up for it my hc character is expendable anyways i go crazy with him

    Afraid to go on

    Teenage boys...turn up the " I am sexy women and need help" type of talk and they will be on all fours for you
  21. I have often thought of spraying food and water bottles i find at Military spawns with disinfectant....but I refuse to carry the stuff or even look at it cause i am afraid i will accidentally drink it.
  22. trev186

    I have a back

    well u guys will be waiting for friends for awhile....there are no cars or helos...
  23. I get what your saying and I guess I can stock up crap there for "in case you die" in hopes I can re-gear at it. If it is lost oh well
  24. Lone wolf is the way to go....over 230 hours alive here. Cant trust anyone they eventually betray you. I play with one of my real life friends occasionally but he rarely logs on and I normally have to babysit him...he has twice ran off the top of buildings and broke his legs...cant face zombies and at NWAF he will run clear accross the middle of the airfield to try and escape a zombie...all while armed to the teeth. When I die I guarantee you it is saving his ass...
