I found the best way to deal with zombies now never fails. When they jump or grab at you side step them then line up and hit them while standing still As soon as they attack they give you a 3 second window before they can do anything else and are left vulnerable. If you go in swinging like a loon you will have a harder time. Always counter attack them never attack before they make their first move

I currently use fraps, but I noticed a drop in fps when its on standby and a slightly bigger drop when its recording. Are there any other types that record decent quality without slowing down performance?

damn, my card isn't compatible

it may have been chasing you from a distance and took his time getting to you

some servers reset your character just for that specific game, making everyone that joins a fresh spawn so they have like 2-4 hours to gear up just like anyone else before the next reset rather than joining as a bambi and getting met with seal team 6. This has actually freaked me out a few times, but when i join my normal servers afterwards, im still kitted out as i was before

thing is when you are running from zombies or running in general and you hear gunshots, you automatically think that someone is shooting at you and you return fire. Then the player will get the hump and say "Thats it, I tried to help him and he was clearly a bandit." The amount of time i have heard gunfire for me to run into cover and figure out that the person shooting hadn't even noticed me and was fighting off a zombie.

i played with the axe tonight, figured out how it works differently, and adapted. I wouldnt go so far as calling it bugged, or broken, just different.

sorry kid but if you play with feathers you're gonna get your ass tickled. Or in other words if you walk around with an illegal weapon, and police catch you with it, the excuse you use isn't going to cut why you have it. If battle eye detects hacking or cheating software on his pc, then you have to ask why he has it

why are you even playing this game?

also what knives attach to boots because all the knives i have found so far dont work with the boots i have

aaaaaaand on that note they have also found that the connection between video game violence and real violence is absolutely inconclusive. Its no difference than saying a scientific study was done and most child abusers drink coffee. The media use it as a shitstorm reason to blame someone for the reason why people are violent, but if video games are the reason for violence in society, please explain the romans,

this enough zombies for you?

Easy doc, I didn't want a psychaitrist lesson on how games make me want me to chop up my neighbor and wear his spleen as a bobble hat. I'm sorry are you late for an appointment or something?

you can find pens and paper in the same room of a building, or at least tear a page out of a book, which seems to spawn in nearly every house you find. Dunno why people have to be so skeptical about everything all the time, I have seen weirder and stranger stuff happen in dayz fraps videos that most probably would have had a harder time believing than this story

this is what playing Dayz to its full potential is all about, rewarding and a clasic plaver to player interaction. Just think how the story would have gone if you just shot him. Wouldn't be worth mentioning at all

it gives you the option to handcuff and forcefeed poison and rotten food to players in game so why not use the feature? Its not like you can go for a pleasent sunday drive in your car to the traders and do a bit of DIY to your base yet is it? Aside from gearing up, eating, do a bit of hunting or camping out to hunt other players what else is there really to do in Dayz? If they didnt implement handcuffs or force feeding why is it such a taboo subject for people not to get their heads around? The torturing side of the game is just a fun player to player experience, be it you as the victim or you as the torturer, its just a fun way to expand on the current engine the game has to offer. If you don't like it then don't play the game. In my group I play with, we only torture someone if they start getting shitty with us for handcuffing them when they were in the middle of sniping bambis. If they are pleasent to us we let them go, but make sure they have to run to a building to get their weapons first so we can get away

there are more yes. before you would only get one or two, possibly 3 zombies come after you in stary sobor. Last night we had 8 charge from all directions and after they fell, another wave came in and another, we had to run out of town just to get a breather and plug some fingers in the various seeping holes we ended up with. and that was with 5 of us all armed

It really does make sense that walking into a big city will be met by hordes of zombies now, it makes you second guess how to deal with them. If you can sneak past one with its back to you, but as soon as the crackhead females come screeching your way and the noob in your group opens fire in panic, you are going to have a bad day. At one point it actually seemed like a scene from 28 days later when about 6 zombies were running down a side street at us and we got into a massive firefight trying to mow them down while avoiding shooting each other. The wall glitching, 10 foor reach and injuring you from the floor below is annoying, but its still progress. 50% still look through the window at you or wait by the door for you to open it, but thats still 50% more improved than 0.46 when all zombies would run in through a wall

im sure he died shortly after

Really? Best go play the sims then, don't want to damage that fragile mind of yours

This is so funny. You gulped it down while giving him the dead eye the whole time just so he knew that you were badass... Then you convulsed and collapsed on the floor

Just something I knocked up earlier. I mean seriously, what with persistent objects and static placement of tents, how long before chernarus begins to look like glastonbury?

so my custom faces post had mixed opinions but most seemed game for it but how about having the option to get fit (running 10km asside here) and have like weight lifting or add a gym building for players to build up their own strengh so they can take more damage because apart from looting arranging your wardrobe hunting fishing crafting capturing players shooting players camping other players exploring it will just give people something extra to do. And secondly I would love to see a toilet system introduced. Everyone keeps banging on about realism and immersion, after all we have feeding, drinking and a first aid system, but what about actually taking a piss or crouching down to take a dump? I was online with my mates the other night and one of them had to leave his pc for a second and in the kneeling position by a tree he actually looked like he was taking a crap. Would b nice to see the text at the bottom saying "I really need the toilet" and if you ignore it oo long "My body feels wet." and you get a soaked label in the inventory. I also love the idea of opening up a portaloo or outhouse to see someone pinching one off and I get to light him up. Think of the youtube hillarity. Sure you will get people saying Its disgusting or its not needed in game.... but when the hell do you go to the toilet? Ususally when you think your safe and you leave the game for a few minutes.

There are a lot of ghostly encounters happening at the balota airfield

why so serious? I saw someone post up a 9 tent campsite on the facebook group im with and this idea popped into my head
