Six Upcoming Developments That Will Change DayZ for the Better - Loot Rarity (wait, whaat?)
trev186 replied to darkgritty's topic in General Discussion
Everyone has night vision goggles...it is called Gamma/Brightness increase....Sure people will call it an exploit and I also once refused to use it...but after trying to take the high road and then watching my friend get sniped by some guy (we had 0 lights on and could barely see two feet in front of us) I turned up gamma and brightness to max to find out I could see clear as day it was just black/white. So my thought on rarity with NVG will just mean everyone who doesn't have them will just gamma up or not play at nighttime which will just mean these 12 saps with NVGs are running around without a proper helmet on for protection. Flame on all you want about the exploit but they have made the game unreasonably dark at night all awhile making it super easy to bypass the whole obstacle. At first I was thrilled for the challenge of playing at night but that was short lived. -
Also worth showing this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0tFLUgi93k Unless they fixed the throw animations in the latest patch then throwing nades will likely be the last thing you want to do with em....the guy in this video outruns the items he throws...
-
I think they are heli crash sites...which that for now would make em very rare...the real problem would be item dupers.. they could create hundreds of em.
-
In regards to people doing this to rush back to their corpse why not just make their old corpse despawn when a new one exists. So when they suicide their previous corpse instantly despawns and only the bambi corpse remains
-
i thought someone mentioned in another thread that they were able to hook the nades up to the Rabbit traps in the experimental so this may actually be possible....lay little grenade traps all over the server and then log off and someone else gets blown to bits hours later running into a tent.
-
Forget even dropping it on the ground. Just pull the pin put it back in the pack and it explodes IMO In regards to fish. Just have the pond spawn the fish when a nade explodes in the middle. There are some very small ponds the fish would not have to run. I know it isn't super realistic but have you seen their idea for a fishing pole? That rope is like super thick no way you could fish with that.

Not complaining about being KOS But if you were in a situation u knew u were going to die...would you really pass up the opportunity to blow all your loot to pieces just to piss off your pursuers? Like say you kill of 2 out of three bandits but now your legs are broken and the other is reloading behind cover and your out in the open...etc I would suspect even the most vicious KOS bandit would opt for this when killed just for one final laugh it goes both ways. I think having that option would loads of fun. It isn't like grenades will be common on the experimental it sounds like most were found at heli crash sites.

Six Upcoming Developments That Will Change DayZ for the Better - Loot Rarity (wait, whaat?)

I prefer the central hive cause servers get shut down over time and you have to start over. -
Another successful trade today (3 total)! Looking for 1x M4 optics (non acog), 2x M4/556 Suppressors If there is something u want I can most likely acquire it (assuming it is not M4 stuff as heli crash farming sucks) I can easily get longhorns, AKM attatchments, millitary gear of all types. Likely within a one day turn around if you have something I want. Also I have a full kitted all pristine spare AKM, comes with 75 Round drum mag (x2), Both folding and normal buttstock, the underrail(for attachments). Everything is pristine. Willing to trade for an MP5K with all pristine attatchments and at least 2 30 round mags
-
Hi I need the below items: M4 Scopes/M4 Suppressor (need 2 suppressors and 2 scopes) Playing on regular. I hangout around the vybor/nwaf area I can easily acquire long horns or any other non M4 type loot. If you have any m4 optics or the suppressor in pristine shape I can bring you what you request in around a day or less turn around.
-
Where is the MP5K spawning?
-
I know of at least two other crash sites not on this map ;)

Anyone interested trading a black high capacity vest for a green one (I have an extra green need a spare black) please PM me

Why I kill other players (outsided of defense/necesity):
trev186 replied to crazykage's topic in General Discussion
You must not have played much up at NWAF during Patch .44 back when zombies would chain spawn like forever. My buddy and I had loads of long range target practice on them spriting from all angles at all times of day there. Also shooting bambis is still stupid they just come back....also they do not behave like more dangerous players so not a realistic scenario. Geared players will be harder to take down. You are better off camping an airfield. You will likely be killed by a horde of bambis at the beach during your target practice sooner than you would be killed by a geared player up at NWAF. I have looted NWAF on 40 man servers and had all to myself on multiple occasions. I actually find it more dangerous on low pop servers cause server hoppers log in and out there on low pop night time servers for gear. -
i hope the devs develop some paranormal entity that haunts green mountain for real. Thinking of the ghosts in the lab in STALKER. I remember being so creeped out in that game as crap levitated at me and was thrown & how I could hear something mucking around in the distance but could not see it. Add some better loot up there to make people risk it.

I have been killed by ladders once Ladders have broken my legs once Walking down stairs has killed me once Players have killed me 2 times (when I first started playing) I will never climb another ladder nor will i go up stairs I do not have to

My Night Set: My Forest set: My Favorite look (Mix of both) Actually prefer to wear TTSKO pants with Black shirt and olive high capacity vest but I got confused and did it backwards ;)
-
Hi, I play regular. I am located in USA (CA). For trade I have a Olive High Capacity Vest in Pristine shape. I would like to trade for a Black High Capacity Vest in Pristine shape I am in the Vybor/NWAF general area. I will not travel to you. Please meet me around Vybor. The deal will go down on the outskirts. In good faith I will have place the vest in a mutually agreed upon area before you log on. I will not make the trade in person. I am trusting you to leave the Black vest behind where you found my Green vest. Will meet on an unpopulated server most likely at night time (recommend you turn up gamma/brightness so this goes quickly) PM me here if you are interested I will exchange steam details and we can work the rest out dropbox link below. Clicking on it may not work i recommend you open it in a new tab then it loads nicely

AKM Barracks Longhorn do that 3 story building where it has a 100% chance of spawning a gun on the top floor (I have found 4 Longhorns there) I usually log out over by one of those buildings in a remote town up north and check it before i head out.

AKM Guide - Loot Location, Attachments, PSO-1 Scope, Recoil & Damage
trev186 replied to aggathor's topic in Gallery
Question is which Buttstock is better for accuracy vs turning? Also not related to AKM but I love your videos and wish you would do one evaluating dayz headgear (personally feel motorbike helmet offers most protection) -
I saw some conflicting sources saying brain flu night be curable via the antitrcicline antibiotics...but others say there is no cure. Anyone cure brain flu with antibiotics or the injection vial ?
-
Clearing NEAF and realizing I forgot to pick up one item in the ATC which I had looted 30 seconds earlier....run back real quick to pick it up and a bandit had spawned on the stair case (server hopper) and was just waiting for someone to walk in...I turned the corner..... your dead.....30 seconds ago empty now occupied....
-
Simple suggestion. Depending on the head gear worn distort the voices of players. My main inspiration is from STALKER when you spoke to people with gas masks on they sounded somewhat muffled but really cool and you could still understand them. Headgear with could impact this would be: 1. Gas masks 2. Motorbike helmet 3. Respirator 4. The various clown like masks 5. Anything else that covers the mouth Potentially players who are injured could also have different effects like if your very low on blood maybe you sound faint or if you have a broken let you sound like your in a lot of pain or shock. Just a thought I think the status aliments would be more difficult but the helmet/masks ones would be fun....I wanna sound like the badasses in their exoskelekton suits ;)

Below is a great video where in STALKER u can hear the somewhat cool muffled voie from behind a gas mask compared to the guys without: STALKER Gameplay: Raiding the Freedom Base:
