I think you mean the Spirit of the game dayz is you will die eventually...and bandits/KOS is the least of my worries....my mortal foes are Ladders and stairs....I have been killed or hobbled by them more times than other players...so if not eventually KOSed be prepared to be murdered ascending....

Patch .43= zombies only appear in & around towns/airfields and are easily killed/avoided Patch .44= zombies still appear im same places as patch .43 but then melee became very ineffective and once you aggroed a zombie they would come at you from everywhere even if they could not see you they would respawn and instantly run after you until you left the area Patch .45= zombies back to patch .43 basically Patch .46= zombies back to .44 zombies BUT melee is effective still. I personally like them being more of a threat but I think it is lame that the respawned zombie I killed who spawned out of LOS from me is instantly aggroing me and chasing me down....meanwhile other zombies in the area remain neutral even though they are closer to me and should be able to see me..

Plain and simple we have potatoes let us launch them and other rotten fruit at people for mild melee type damage and fun.

Updated post below

As far as I know no rail exists unless it can fit the M4 one...

Trade you an AKM for your MP5K if the attachments are pristine :) Also have a spare 15 round clip for the MP5K

I take your word for it :) I am going to test the pistol attachments now....I know people had lights on them in experimental

Thanks I updated this. I had read on experimental people said it did not but had not tested myself

No sir I did not. I avoid encounters whenever possible and only kill someone like once a month (current toon is 200 hours old :))....last one was some dude at NWAF who would not respond when spoken to I am carrying two AKMs right now i would not risk taking someone out for another one lol... If you find an MP5K though let me know!

was this a recent change our Mousin has compensator, bayonet and bipod (bipod cant be attached anymore) never knew this was a glitch nor read of it being one...

dont have any more M4 Scopes or suppressors? I have a fully kitted AKM I need to dispose of

like I said I thought I read it somewhere but....guess I was wrong :)

From what I read eslewhere a few months back yes being healthy helps you overcome the illness. I think if you can remain in healthy state until during stage one of the illness you beat it. I even heard people were able to survive drinking the disinfectant this way...I exhort you though do not go try and see if I am lying about the disinfectant ;) Speaking of AKM...any chance you got an MP5K or some nice M4 attachments? I can give you all my pristine attachments and 2 drum mags in exchange :)

From what I have heard it is just 15 round mags and 30 round mags nothing better than 30

Anyone with a pristine MP5K and both attatchments in pristine shape ill trade you an AKM with all the Attatchments and 2 drum mags in pristine shape.

Let me clarify I would agree with you that flavor items like a golden AKM or maybe helicopters and cars (cause they are death traps). Those are fine being super rare to me.... BUT in the initial post NVGs or a rifle like the SVD were used as examples of items that would be ultra rare...in the case of items which would give one player an extremely high advantage over a similiarly geared player I do not think this limitation should be placed... I am perfectly fine and enjoy what they did with the M4 though. I wish they would swap up loot a lot better as well. Like spawn the SKS, mousin and shotguns only in the residential/farm areas (policemen and modern millitary are not using these). Add different types of shotguns more commonly used by police to the police station. Leave AKM and sniper rifles and other types of millitary grade weapons in the millitary bases. Also any changes like the above should apply to their attatchments...so chapped at the amount of shotgun and blaze speedloaders u find at NWAF...

So since last patch majority of the servers display some sort of message either in name or in game that the server will wipe you and cannot communicate with the central hive.... Why has this not been resolved? I play on like 6 different servers regularly(4 of which I added since this issue arose simply cause It is rare to find a safe server) but it was nice to have a variety of servers to join in the event one was down or others had a high ping. Now your risking death not only for climbing ladders, going upstairs but also choosing the wrong server... also now that spawn timers are back I find that anytime I am rewarded with one (No message received.....) I get the infinite please wait message. In order to successfully change servers I need to stop playing go do something for 2-5 mins then select a server...the spawn timer completely locks me out of all servers... Factor in the fact that half the time I swap servers the game is closed completly and needs to be relaunched and that every other time I refresh the server list my internet times out as a result of some sorta DDOS the devs do to us...I pretty much quit playing as soon as someone resets the server I am on cause it like 10-15 mins before I can be up and running again.

Fragnet, Gameservers, generic named vilayer....Only servers that seem to be safe are unbraded servers....but still we have a list of like several hundred servers and less than 10-20 of em are safe in my testing. This persists for over a month and no mention of what is causing it here nor did the devs appear to try and fix it in the last experimental

As long as u have the option to load it with rotten fruit and live cows:)

The LRS is not rare at all I can find 3-4 in a single NWAF run....Having ultra rare items limited to only a few hundred in a game purchased by millions is dumb... It will be like wow with legendaries...people will be more concerned with obtaining the item than having fun... And trust me there will be plenty of people like me who obtain these items and hide our way far north and avoid most social contact. It wont be clans who hold these items long...they will die doing fighting with other clans...then the item will lilly get ruined or dmged (anything not pristine is trash at my current level) and thrown out. Once some less aggressive player finds it they will never give it up. There are 3 types of geared players in dayz 1. Aggressive (bandits/clans/KOS/heroes) who seek out people to kill and eventually die off themselves. Many seek death just for the sake of starting fresh 2. Friendly/social....they want to PVE...eventually killed by group 1 3. Passive/cautious. This is where I fall in. Stay in remote areas, scout carefully, only play with people I know IRL and only kill those I have. Rather go unseen than risk interaction. Will loot high risk areas when certain conditions are met that guarantee safety. When things get boring between patches I quit playing til the next patch as opposed to searching for death. For people like me the thrill is in living as long as possible. I keep track of the hours I have played and prefer to practice stalking others unseen (usually at night). In the case of loot rarity once the rare item falls into group 3 it is more likely they quit playing before they are killed and therefore the item is gone forever. Now factor in they want to add underground bases that will persit through death so players can stock pile gear there and all these ultra rare items will be tucked away safely. On another note why would things like NVG be so limited ? I can see why they would only spawn at millitary bases or maybe SWAT team type police areas...but come on nothing rare...I guarantee you a millitary force stationed in the woods would have plenty on hand... If your going to make rare items make them somthing very badass and also something kinda odd at the same time...like say a golden plated gun or something just style like. As for vehicles I could care less about them and feel they will only ruin the game.

Since 3rd person is available to both sides it does not ruin anything stop crying about it. On the other under the fact that people continue to dupe and no one fixes the error is disturbing.... Nothing but whores

anyone getting the .46 update in steam yet I logged on to notice all servers were on .46 in my list and said experimental/testing...yet I never have opted to be an experimental tester. My game also still says it is on .45 on the main screen. Steam has shown no updates yet and I have restarted several times.

Have u tried putting the weapon flashlight or standard suppressor 556 as opposed to the pistol one? People in experimental had screenshots of the MP5K with a flashlight on it. Wondering if there is a RIS handguard rail for it or if it can use the M4s (doubt it)

no though in the experimental they did mention there is a timed improvised butane grenade/bomb which would follow that mentality :)

What I am saying is pull the pin and let go of the spoon by drop it back into your pack to blow yourself and others up. not like it has to be thrown
