    Keeping a laptop cold?

    Unfortunately I doubt I'd be much help with trusted retailers though. You'll have my opinion and help, but since I'm from the UK living in DK, I'd be useless unless you're okay to pay beyond reasonable shipping prices!

    Applejaxc asked for a trusted source, not a cheap chinese resellers or ebay source.

    What items would you kill someone for? An MP5K?

    Don't know where you got that from, found 4 of them in NWAF (2 Damaged, 2 Pristine) yesterday. You certainly CAN get a combat knife.

    Hey folks, me and a few of the lads went up to North West Airfield last night. Danny our camera man recorded most of the action and of course, first kill of the night goes to me! Check it out :) We usually have little brag competitions on who can get the most kills, scoreboard as shown for a 3ish hour period; emigrates - 6 kills Danny - 4 kills Buggy - 2 kills JoKa - 1/2 kill

    Law and Order DayZ

    One of the best, if not the best DayZ video I've seen in a long, long time. Loved it!

    I kill on sight, a lot of people who say "I don't shoot at people unless they shoot at me first" confuse me, that 1 shot could be the shot that hits you in the face.

    Keeping a laptop cold?

    Yeah I completely understand! I was a bit worried about opening my computer case and working on a laptop the first time, I'm still very cautious! The first time I took apart my PC i ended up losing a screw in the PSU, I'm pretty sure it's still in there somewhere.. but hey! It's working :)

    I think you may be exaggerating the difficulty of locating people on HC just a tad.. Shall we ignore the use of grammar here and pretend your sentence construction didn't just improve tenfold? ;)

    Keeping a laptop cold?

    I was going to make and post a guide how to clean your laptop correctly. So many people tend to take the back cover off and just get rid of some dust, however not a lot of people are away you can unscrew the GPU & CPU screws to remove the two connecting heatsinks. Once you've done this, on most laptops you can then remove the fan that connects the heatsinks and unscrew the housing of the can. Inside the fan you'll probably notice a large build up of dust that gets jammed in there. Removing this is a guaranteed fix for overheating fans. I'd also recommend clearing the GPU/CPU of thermal paste (stock products seem to just spew a ton of it on) and re-applying. Doing this I managed to get a computer from a solid 97 degrees idle to 44 degrees in use. If anyone does want a step-by-step guide or a video then let me know and I'll get on it.
  12. A lot of people are complaining about the state of Melee vs Zombies at the moment. I tend to just stand still when a zombie runs at me, hit them once with an axe and they're dead. The issue, it seems is when you start running around trying to avoid them.
  13. Wouldn't go there anyway since it's been changed!

    It just disappoints me when people storm threads to complain about the use of 3rd person. If you dislike 3PP then don't play it and don't watch videos. I beg to differ about not being able to roof camp, sit inside trees and looking behind walls, my first experience on hardcore was sitting in a bush opposite 2 story pub running down anyone who dared run past. Game play is exactly the same, you can even glitch your head through walls - it's not difficult. Well in real life, I can poke my head up without having the move my body, I can check my body and see more visually. I can see the magazine, rifle butt and more of my weapon. I can check my webbing/plate carriers without only seeing the top pocket. Yes, I'm not seeing myself as a 3rd person experience but yes I can also see more myself than I could if I was playing DayZ without 3rd person.

    Haha, thanks buddy. Yeah we don't talk a lot, especially not in high pop areas. That's true, if it was a hardcore server it would be higher. We tend to stick to Berezino, last time we were there in a group of 11 people we emptied the server. But then again, even HC isn't anything like real life. Camera isn't me btw, like I said - I'm not Danny, I'm the guy who you hear first of all saying "Okay, taking a shot.. yeah he's dead"

    Clearing a building in DayZ

    There are hardcore servers for a reason.

    Yeah pretty much, he shot a guy who slumped to the ground and looked as though he was dead, we all put a few rounds in him but he had vanished a few minutes earlier. Since we don't know if he was dead or alive, we have him a half! I'm glad you found it entertaining. There's so little difference between hardcore and regular, it's just 3rd person. I prefer regular since I can see my character. Ultimately we do play regular and hardcore. My equipment on hardcore is a fully propped M4 with a lot of 5.56. Good to know!

    Character wipe everytime.

    Same here, saw the red message - spammed the Escape key but the server still connected and I saw a fresh spawn. Straight away I hit Escape and disconnected, went onto another server but saw the same red message and then tried another server and it spawned my old character.

    Items that are as rare as hens teeth

    Only rare items I see to be rare now are Protector Cases. Anything else I have coming out of my ears, including everything you said besides the Longhorn, I walk past them!

    Free Tent on Regular stable

    They need to know your server too buddy.
  21. Used these guys today after eating raw meat (A silly mistake..). Good lads willing to risk their characters and using their game time to help others, awesome service, very professional and wasn't at all a long wait, especially considering I was in the middle of nowhere).

    1911 engraved - what is the engraving saying?

    Off-topic: You live in Mold! I'm so happy right now! On-topic: Pretty awesome if you ask me!

    How did this zombie thing.

    Thought thought Shrub's spelling was for real? I personally think he's a very intelligent being, fully capable of being able to compile a beautiful sentence - he just chooses not too.

    5.56 for Ak101

    I'm well aware of what happens when rounds are held in a magazine for a long period of time, but you know.. we are playing a game. As realistic as it may be, it's still a Zombie game.

    Video Editing Suites

    Hey folks, I need some help from the community on what is your favourite video editing suite. I've recorded a few clips that I'd like to share around the clan and steam friends however I want to insert a bit of music, some titles, fading, etc. I've used Windows Video Editor and I'm steering clear of that for the rest of my life. I've also used Sony Vegas a long time ago. What's your favourite and why?
