Those little known and well known tourist spots..the nine raging boners of the apoc
Helix2000 replied to Hetstaine's topic in General Discussion
if they ever implement busses or large planes, will you guys run tourist expeditions? -
sawn off .22 sporter poll ...should we be able to
Helix2000 replied to slippery gypsy's topic in General Discussion
yeah, but why stop there? why not have sawn off B95? just an idea -
they need to add giant roaming heards of zombies, like in the walking dead, to encourage teamwork between players.

since the hunting and fishing update, i have tried to live, just as a personal challenge, with as few items as possible and avoid towns whenever i can. the smallest amount of items that i can get by on so far is as follows: improvised backpack, a fire axe, a mosin,with 20 rounds, matches, a canteen, 1 bandage, a kitchen knife, water purification tablets, and the rest of my bag has been taken up with cow meat. at the moment, i can stay out of a town until i run out of tablets or ammunition. so my question to you people is what is your minimal invent, and how long can you stay out of towns?
-
yeah but i am a camping nut IRL and it makes me happy to have them...
-
no, cos everyone would choose this option, and have the ability to run around and kill other newspawns, creating giant firefights in all the spawn points across the map. i like the idea of perks, but there should not be any military perks... but that is just my two cents
-
yeah, headshots only, but really, at the moment, with how un-co the larger melee weapons are, that would mean you are restricted to the useage of stabbing weapons such as the screwdriver and ashwood stick...

Finding different "Roles" to play in DayZ..
Helix2000 replied to Irish.'s topic in General Discussion
i know right. you may know this, you may not, but when you inspect the compass, you can turn using the "end" and the "delete" keys.. -
was looting at green mountain, ran into the tower, was on the ladder and just tied. no gun shot, no footsteps, 3 other people on the server...

looking for a red checked shirt, a sewing kit, gas lamp and gas bottle, regular server. any one got this? willing to negotiate on price...' UPDATE: trade completed without a problem. paid in ammo and did not even get shot!!! today was a good day
-
there is a special reward for the people I find logging on or off whilst they are on an airfield. it is a bullet. that is the only time i KOS cos people stupid enough to log on or off at an airfield almost deserve it... especially server hoppers

choke holds, strangling and a hand over their mouth

or, maybe just 2 punches to the back of the head, which most of the tim will knock someone out, then bludgeon them with your melee weapon... -
Campfirekit + Sticks + Matches = ignite fire + logs = prolong/bigger fire
Helix2000 replied to JuX's topic in Suggestions
being able to deconstruct and reconstruct is a great idea. as for finding the rope, in most large towns, there are those residential buildings whit what looks like a roller door down over their window. i normally find rope (or multiple rope after searching through 2-3 of them.. -
What's the current hacking status like in DayZ:SA?
Helix2000 replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
emptied the clip of my SKS into a guys head during a fire fight at NEAF. got got back up, ran into one of the hangars and shot me through the wall. that is the ne and only hacking incident that i have come across in 200+ hours of gameplay... -
yeah, but it would have to come and go. in the mornings maybe, but i enjoy sitting on top of a mountain and watching the sun shine through the trees. would not get that if there was constant fog. it should be part of the weather patterns, but not something that sweeps over every half an hour...

Neck Slot for Rope+[items] to be worn around neck, Ear/Teeth trophies
Helix2000 replied to stolenbanjos's topic in Suggestions
between bandoliers plus neckslots for compasses etc, my small item needs are satisfied!! great idea, and it might be implemented, it might not, but it is good to think about! -
another example of needing a weight system, but yeah, i do like the idea (yesterday, i got into a fire fight at the Balota military camp, killed both guys, then started looting their bodies. had this feature been in, i would not of been killed by a bambi with a chambered FNX

god i would love a train. i can just imagine people new to the game shitting themselves as a steam or diesel locomotive roared past from berezino to electro. on a more serious note, having a train, as the tracks circle the entire map, means that you can move enormous amounts of people and supplies to most places very quickly, so if you found a train (which would have to be a rare occurrence) it would have to be a massive job to repair and refuel, and to counter the overwhelming power of such a machine, there would need to be many ways to stop or slow it (sabotaging tracks as well as machine parts) and that would just about balance it out. i want to be a train robber!!!

Helix2000 replied to JuX's topic in Suggestions
i dont carry around a fishing rod. when ever i want to fish (keep in mind that i no longer carry canned food which saves a lot of space)i cut down an ash tree to get the stick, attach a rope, the fishing lure is usable over multiple rods, so really, all i need to find in between fishing sessions is a new piece of rope. (worms are easy to get whenever) but really, it is down to what you prefer... i only have 40 B95 rounds and 60 revolver rounds at a time (i keep the revolver in a chest holster to save space) but i admit that i have cargo pants and make use of two protector cases -
Armed Helicopters Are NOT Overpowered
Helix2000 replied to [email protected]'s topic in General Discussion
yeah choppers, but just unarmed ones, and always found in a bad condition. make it take a long time to fully repair, so only dedicated players can get them, but i still reckon that the main vehicle in DayZ should be cars and motorbikes -
Campfirekit + Sticks + Matches = ignite fire + logs = prolong/bigger fire
Helix2000 replied to JuX's topic in Suggestions
since the hunting patch came out, once i found matches, i have succeed on surviving with a blue taloon backpack, and no assault vest. really, it is not hard to do. plus, keep the axe equipped on your back, and that will save those 4 invent slots. i even have enough space to carry around a full fireplace kit with me. try living with as few items as you can and you will be surprised what you can do. just ask yourself, do i really need that item? -
i know that dear can be killed/ cooked cos me and my mate have done it, but i have not come across a rabbit after the 4.5 patch..

the only camping i do is when i am by a campfire cooking some steaks. when they put tents in, i will be able to do thins properly. tent, campfire, enugh food and water for days, plus my trusty B95, but i do need to find a fishing hook. have we need to meet up and go on a fishing trip mate...

1. only go to a town if you need something (hunting has made this so much easier) 2. always pretend that there is a KOS bandit in the town with you 3. if you see another player, find out if there are more to their group before making yourself known 4. if you share with another players, only give food, water, batteries (no weapons or ammo) 5. it is better to keep your old gear than get killed for something better
