  2. The starry with the police station is good it is in the bottom of a valley I was sniping zombies there with my AKM. A lot spawn there too. There are even a few who patrol randomly when not aggroed

    I just KoS'd :(

    3 guys in payday masks running around Berezino = bandit clan...if you had not killed them they would have killed you I guarantee it Only thing you did that was dumb was go anywhere near Berezino...avoid that place like the plague if you do not want to die.

    Clothing condition and armor protection

    Yes google "how items protect you in dayz"
  9. They fixed it for backpacks it does not work But it works just fine with clothing and vests Kinda odd they would only fix it for backpacks which is why I ask.

    If you die in DayZ, you deserved it

    Even if you die from ladders and other glitches more than once it is your fault... Since being thrown from a ladder and having my legs broken for climbing stairs I no longer do either... Sure you miss out on awesome sniper spots and potentially decent loot in the military prison buildings but at least you do not die. I just hope the devs will fix these issues.

    Suggestion: zombies don't attack when spawning in

    I find an empty server and login to run to safety in those situations

    Real Secret Military Base

    I have been there and was expecting them to make it a military base before. It has been there for awhile. Just had those new buildings added but it has always had the millitary guard post tower so I knew they were going to make a base there

    new night time lighting

    I think the only way this can be balanced is for them to remove the option to adjust gamma/brightness.... Though I suppose thatd be piss off people with poor vision, night blindness and color blindness ? I am guessing cause I assume the only real reason to need to adjust these settings in game is for that purpose. i loved the old night time feel....we even tried to play with it until an exploiter killed my friend (I got him though) this was while we had no lights on and had not turned any on in quite awhile....After that it was always cranking up the gamma/brightness. Just to easy to do. At least under the old settings it was still dark a lot of the time and people would use lights to try and see loot...but now it is just as clear as day no need for light.
  14. Loot respawns have been broken since day one....fix loot respawns and make the penatly for server hopping greater than it is for waiting for loot to respawn.... I think most people would move towards camping two areas...such as Vybor base and NWAF. 1. Loot NWAF 2. Travel to Vybor loot Vybor and vybor base 3. Return to NWAF Ideally by the time you return to NWAF the loot should have respawned for most of it rinse and repeat... Better than hopping and just finding places already looted and then leaving and having to wait 2-5 mins for respawn timers (half the time if you have a timer it fails and just gets stuck at please wait) On another note when I am not worried about someone tracking my movements I purposely leave the doors open to barracks and other server hopper favorites just cause most of them will leave if they see an open door. Just looted vybor base (did not find anything I wanted) and I left the doors open...there was an AKM and Black high cap vest ;)

    Shouldn't MP5 fit into backpack?

    Ok that is cool with me BUT then why does a fish hook take up an entire slot ;)
  16. trev186

    Shouldn't MP5 fit into backpack?

    I would recommend that for space high cap vest works best but you are forgetting about gun fights.... Say he is a sniper and take a bullet or two to the chest....runs gets cover and tries to swap to his MP5k...well it now may be ruined

    Is the AKM or M4A1 Better?

    I prefer the AKM...my friend prefers the M4. Hold onto the both for now IMO M4 is impossible to find except off corpses now since heli crashes are bugged.
  18. also gameservers.com anything with a generic name basically

    DayZ Playstyles

    I play solo and spend most my time up in the NWAF area but will venture as far as Svelto or Zelengorsk if my task leads me there. My aim is to outlive anyone by any means....Over 200 hours alive on this toon. That said I am regularly on loot runs & impose upon myself challenges. Something is always broken or there are new items I want to try. I have kitted out every gun in the game so far...most of them I have tossed with full pristine everything in some field when I was done with em ;) When not looking for gear I hunt others. Preferably at night in my night set. Since most at night play with gamma up I do to but even with gamma up there are areas with dark patches. When dressed all in black they do not see me and unbeknownst to them I follow them. During this time I judge them as players. Sometimes I learn something by watching others. Most the time though it is some idiot who takes 10 mins to loot a fire station cause he is constantly playing inventory tetris...Occasionally if I am in a safe area i will fire a shot at them to see how they react....most will run and log off...couple times I have done it when people were swapping their mountain backpacks for hunter packs and they left their backpack there full of loot and left with the new one ROFL... Occasionally I killl them if I can track them to where they log off in the woods (safely they think). This is normally if I watch them kill someone else. I dull out judgement and to their surprise when they log in their a fresh spawn (i bet most just think the game screwed them over ;)) Here is my mantra: 1. Avoid all people 2. If I spot someone and am close enough that they may notice me soon I will call out friendly...if they do not answer they die 3. Stake out every major city before venturing in. Circle it 1-2 times and check for signs of other players 4. Better to skip looting an area/building and live then to risk it and lose everything 5. log off 10-15 mins away from any sort of civilization 6. Never not be fully energized/hydrated

    Magnetic back?

    If you start complaining about this mechanic this it should go both ways... If I can attach rope to an ax/gun to sling it I should be able to choose to sling two rifles and no AX Also I should be able to sling my MP5K like a Purse and not have it take any item slots.... not everything is going to be realistic

    New NE Airfield Thoughts?

    I hear they may be adding a spawn outside of vybor. Also with an online map u can get there in 15-20 mins
  22. trev186

    New NE Airfield Thoughts?

    I promise Vybor millitary base wont disappoint..3 Barracks and the best place to find high cap vest and AKMs.. Also very small and easy to lockdown... People enter like lambs to the slaughter
  23. trev186

    New NE Airfield Thoughts?

    I avoid that place like the plague and still do....It is death to go there and it is always fully looted.... Only time I go there is when I am goofing off on my HC toon who I play suicidal with...

    The Curse of Green Mountain

    Had my first visit to Green mountain today.... I have been alive on this character for almost 225 hours so I have avoided the cursed place to not kill my streak...but decided I should venture in... I did not loot anything cause I needed nothing and felt I should not take from the mountain. Instead....I camped out hiding in the cover of a pine tree...There was a deer walking around near by. He was a good distance away from me I watched him for about 5 mins during which he moved even further away from me as he grazed. Then suddenly he darted off as if startled by something....but nothing was there and he did not see me.... After that I left the cover of the tree & I found that the deer had vanished I could not find it anywhere...and even stranger there were no zombies in the area.... something else scared the deer off and it seemingly vanished..
