I've played SA for a while now and wanted to try the mod, i had arma 2 already so i bought OA got the mod running and joined into a server. I spawned near Elektro and made my way to a barn on the outskirts of the town, i saw someone running through the field a ways away with about 20 zombies chasing after him. i was laying down near the barn waiting for some zombies to clear out of the way and a blue van rolled past on the dirt road near me, they backed up and stopped in front of me. 3 people got out and told me there was nothing in the barn but gave me a lee enfield with 3 mags, some food, a map, and some water. they drove off and i started sorting through my new gear in a pine tree. when i was finished i started typing in chat to say thank you to the guys who easily could have wasted me. as i was typing i heard footsteps saw the legs of a guy walking around the palm tree and stop. i heard "Hey buddy." in direct chat and then a series of shots followed by a death message. welcome to DayZ

when did i ask for easier time? i said it would be pointless if people can camp the coast with full gear and mow down fresh spawns since the freshies wouldnt be able to get loot. lol

lol theres no easy mode, this is dayz, if you think things are too hard then go find another game dude

the whole part about you shooting and knowing you didnt miss does not completely mean its a hacker. that happens a lot with desync between players so when you see him at one place hes already somewhere else on his screen.

Id rather spawn in get enough gear to actually survive the trip up north and loot the north then come back down and get into some PVP action. which is what i do.

Would never want to see Belota Mil Base gone, thats just terrible. With the way the game is being played right now, you spawn, you start to gather basic materials, then likely you are shot by a armed guy running the coast. If theres not a place to yield weapons more than other places alot of the people who sit at Belota and try and camp people for their beans, will then be forced to move to places like Elektro or Cherno. I dont really want to see MORE armed guys killing fresh spawns in Elektro, fresh spawns need to have a way to get enough gear to defend themselves, (if they plan on staying around the coast) and with Belota gone, there will be a lot more traffic in areas where police stations are, again causing more people to camp these locations.

i dont think having no cars is going to keep you from being dropped by people with a group of friends. just because they dont have a car doesnt mean they arent gunna shoot you. personally im not against this or for it. i think that some servers should be able to have no vehicles but i would never want to see this across all servers.

Still think the best way to take down any chopper is to let me drive it.

just imagine rigging a flare to the side of a building or a tree in the woods. a bandit comes running up think he can get a free kill and when he turns around theres a squad of 5 ready to waste him. maybe we can even set traps around the light like a trigger rigged to an explosive so when he crosses a certain point and gets too curious *KAPOOYA*

I really dont think carrying a pillow around for the rare occasion i have to shoot a zombie would be the best choice. like damnyourdeadman said i would much rather craft an improvised silencer, maybe it would only work for a certain amount of shots, depending on what you use to make the suppressor. better the materiel the more shots that can be fired until it doesnt serve its purpose anymore.

It does suck, having the bill of a hat popping out of your gas mask. But unfortunately since its such a small problem, i dont think they plan on fixing it too soon :/

now attaching flares to objects with duct tape is an idea i could get behind.

I laughed quite a bit at this :thumbsup:

It all just takes getting used to. When you start playing a lot you will pick up locations of things and associate them with the names of cities or towns. Like Cherno can be easily identified by the large industrial area. Elektro by sniper hill, or the fire station at the northeast corner of the city.

i die alot more from starvation/dehydration than i do at the hands of other players. dont even get me started on my deaths by zombie

i think the amount of drinks was based off that you were drinking soda cans, if something different like water im sure it would be much faster.

I really do like this adds a lot more of a horror game feeling which in DayZ i tend to want from time to time. If you do make this into an actually downloadable sound pack that would be awesome

The healing message does not necessarily mean you have been hurt and your character is recovering, it just means that if you did lose any blood from anything you would begin regenerating slowly.

Novodmitrovsk, or "Novod" for short, is a large city located north east in the ChernarusMap, west of Svetlojarsk. Due to its proximity to the spawnpoint Svetlojarsk and the north-eastern coast, it is a place frequently visited by new spawned players and Survivorssearching for Loot. Its size can be compared to the large south coastern citiesChernogorsk and Elektrozavodsk. The City was added in the 0.45.12499 experimental version, although the street patterns were visible for a few months until the real implementation.

pretty sure they are still in the game, but as more and more items have been added and are being added, they are becoming increasingly difficult to find. but then again, a single item is pretty impossible to find when you need it and are looking for it.

i think a lot of people are comparing this to Arma and saying its supposed to be a milsim realism-fest. by that logic its like saying pokemon is a mario game because theyre made by nintendo.

enjoyed this quite a bit. there are a few things that i think should be fixed though. around the bottom of the z you can see the corner from one of the pictures popping out. and i think you should trace the middle finger so that theres no background sky around it. just me personally though good job.

Will probably take a while to finish but i think i real town would be amazing. Personally i have been wanted a real life area as a map for any game since my FPS days. would love to see updates on this.

found the campfire part near the beginning hilarious. "be a shame if i ran into those guys..." you could even see him turn around to make sure he was safe

That was a pretty quick kill for a fire extinguisher.
