Improvement Ideas: Amputation and Medicine
Mookie (original) replied to Rucki's topic in General Discussion
This. Amputation is one of the worst suggestions I've ever heard. The loss of function would be so bad that it would make precisely zero sense to keep going. -
Helicopter Crash Sites Guide(.50/.51)
Mookie (original) replied to seeinred's topic in General Discussion
I think they may have deleted the Blackhawk model (the old...black one) since 0.51. The only smoking sites I find are UH-1Ys. Sorry, helicopter nerd... :) -
I think I've spotted a critical flaw in this plan... :o
-
I'm damned if I'm going looking for V3s. If the KOS'ers camping them don't kill me, the truck itself probably will.

the case of items that are in the game but dont spawn
Mookie (original) replied to brumey's topic in General Discussion
Look out for a lootgasm at a fire station (so you'll need to be on a persistent server). They're sometimes hard to spot, but if you're lucky (as I was a few weeks ago) you can walk away with five or six of them. -
No offence, but why "should" they? They take 5.56 CMAG/M4 mags, not AK/7.62 or 101/5.56 mags, so prob only spawn at crash sites. Happy to be proved wrong though....

Updating. All 3rd person, regular. Have: M4A1 (W), with plastic guard (P), MP stock (black, P), M68 optics (P), 40rnd mag (P) This is as nice an M4 as I've ever offered for trade. The gun, parts and mag all came from the same crash site this evening. Also have: ACOG (P) Blackskull (P) PSO-1 (P) Combat Knife (P) BUIS (P) CR527 5rnd mag with rounds (P, full) FNX 15rnd mag (P, full) Rangefinder (P) Seeking: Netting, or complete ghillie sets. Smersh vest for the M4. Happy to discuss combinations. Get in touch before I either lose the M4 to a server crash/restart/"alpha incident" or decide to dump other bits from inventory. Thanks.

Anyone else having problem with Character reset alone?
Mookie (original) replied to Xeak's topic in General Discussion
Someone should write a concise guide to avoiding this issue which could be stickied by the mods...? Could save countless lives. -
Thanks for the suggestions. However, I'm quite an experienced crash hunter and know the best vantage points, etc. The changes in technique are really around very long runs on consecutive persistence-off servers, which isn't exactly rocket-science. Also, do Steyrs take M4 mags, or do they use their own?

Make sure your centre dot thing is pointing at the water, with the canteen in hand, hit F key and the first scroll option should be 'fill bottle'.. I find it easy to edge too close and get soaked as a result, even though I don't actually look like I'm near enough for that. Other than that, this mechanic still seems to work pretty well for me. It does, however, seem to be an increasing problem in game that the way things look is not the way they actually are. If you refill five times (20dcl per time) and then walk away or put the canteen back in your inventory, is it filled then?

George - No. Already had things like blackskull, rangefinder and CR527 mag (these mags used to be v rare). But I've found five sites in total in 0.51 - two Mi-8s (in one of which I found the PSO) and three UH-1s (ACOG, BUIS, knife, assorted M4 mags and MP133 shotgun), two of which I found over the weekend. These are in addition to my own ACOG and knife, as well as the BUIS that you very generously gave me. I'm developing some new heli-hunting techniques, which are even more onerous than in 0.49, but which do at least seem to be generating results. They sure wear my boots out fast though.. :|

Once upon a time (in the mod?), there was a weird, and quite frightening kind of 'superzombie' - more like an alien than a zombie in fact, with different sounds and about 50% bigger. I could swear it was one of these things that chased me around at GM for about half an hour a month or two ago, before I finally lost in in the woods near Myshkino. I might have eaten some chicken that was past its sell-by date though.

Can you define "just about most stuff" please? Thanks.

Updating.

Sure they can. The most credible explanation is the sync issue between client and server, hence Irish's suggestion of vaulting. Which works IME, even though I still only go upstairs when absolutely necessary... OP doesn't seem to be hating or raging to me. Just wondering what's going on, which is fair enough.

All 3rd person, regular. Just found my first UH-1 crash site. So: Have: ACOG (P) Blackskull (P) PSO-1 (P) Combat Knife (P) BUIS (P) (Not the one you gave me George...) CR527 5rnd mag with rounds (P) Rangefinder (P) Seeking: Netting, or complete ghillie sets.

I've insta-died on the second floor of red roof barns in 0.47 and 0.48. No more second floors for me. Not new to 0.51 anyway.

Hard Contest - Do you get it? Guess the location.
Mookie (original) replied to kimmaz's topic in General Discussion
Sort of. It's just off the road running roughly east/west to the south of the base, at about 070 008. Did I get your's right ric? -
How to refuel the V3S
Mookie (original) replied to TheModernGamer94's topic in New Player Discussion
Nope. But I can see it occurring to people... -
Hard Contest - Do you get it? Guess the location.
Mookie (original) replied to kimmaz's topic in General Discussion
1. New(ish) military base north of Severograd 2. Cave complex about 1km to the west of the above. -

How to refuel the V3S
Mookie (original) replied to TheModernGamer94's topic in New Player Discussion
Camping petrol stations, then shooting them up when guys in V3Ss turn up. Mmmm. -
If he were board, that would be boring. :)

Excellent story, nicely illustrated. Seems to me that a lot of current issues about the game involve seeing (or not seeing something) versus whether it's really there or not...

Im really loving the new ghillie camo..
Mookie (original) replied to Irish.'s topic in General Discussion
Um, how well does this work camo-wise when, beyond a certain distance, grass doesn't render, so you just look like a strangely shaped bush?
