Zombie Milkman

I love the stun baton BUT.... - You can't open a can of beans with it. - You can't chop wood with it. - It lasts what, maybe 10-15 hits before you need a new battery? - Batteries are not lying around everywhere (well, ok, if you go to the spawn points you can find a bunch, but...) - Batteries take up even more inventory slots AND THAT SUCKS! Fire axe = best choice, IMO.

Don't even get me started because I agree with you, but I don't want to hijack this thread with politics. But I will say one thing: the socialists love to take away our guns so we are more easily controlled. Funny, dat.

There is good and bad in everything hotcakes. As you get older you tend to start seeing the mountain of BS behind every agenda. And believe me, that mountain is huge on both sides.

He is not the only one, and it is spot on. :thumbsup: My motto: trust no one over 30, or anyone under 31. Words to live by.

http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197976148486/screenshots/ I ran into the barracks and they followed, so I shot them. Then they came one by one because of the shot... I shot them too. So then I try to leave and NOPE, SORRY says DayZ. There is a zombie carcass in your way. So after announcing to e v e r y o n e around NWAF that I am there and have weapons I am stuck in the most likely search point. Luckily I have lots of bullets. Oh yeah, WRONG BULLETS! Man those zed bodies take forever to decompose these days. Yet if they died outside I could run right over them no problem. Doorways, not so much. XD I lived another day, but what are the odds?

Ooh, thanks for sharing. That's a new one for me to try.

Yeah, I've been all three of those ages. :P Most people move away from the instant me-centric gratification thing as they become older gamers. Not everyone, and I am not putting the other side down at all, it just is the trend I've noticed. Another axiom of life revolves around this, that when you are young you aren't really living if you aren't very liberal, but as you get older you don't really grow much if you don't become conservative. The rule? No way, nor is it an indictment of anyone if they don't follow this trend, but it is what happens most of the time.

I'm pissed off. I was practicing my zombie caging skillz and had a zombie pursue me up to a second floor. I expect him to come through the doorway, at which point I will run by him, down the stairs, and close the front door to the building on his zombie butt. But not today Mildred, no this zombie glitches THROUGH THE WALL next to the door, and get this, I only see his upper torso because he is coming halfway through the floor! What the hell? This threw me just long enough to allow him to get the 20' long range zombie strike on me. >( Pissed? You betcha. I still trapped him but that's the worst glitch I have seen yet.

Ok, so today I contradict my self. I am in Balota, in the jail closest to the tower. I ran in solo in search of an 101 mag which is near impossible to find since .49, but anyway I run in closing all the doors behind me as I search all the way to the top corner room. I close that door, loot the room of nothing, and kneel facing the door ready to blow someone away as I mess with my backpack. One minute goes by, then I hear the front door to the place open. Footsteps... Jail door opens... Footsteps... I decide a warning is in order. "You will want to choose a different building my friend or this will end poorly." He replies, in thick accent: "I am Russian. Friendly." XD I repeat my warning adding I died because of friendly before so please leave or we both get hurt. He replies: "I am Russian. I am friendly." XD Truth or consequences time. Dude opens the door, no weapon in hand but kitted out like me with camos, backpack, axe, sks... I am aimed on his legs. I say hands up and he raises one hand. Funny guy... I am slowly tightening down on the left mouse button. He says: Open these please. Throws down a few cans of beans, peaches... Turns his back and starts looking for loot under the beds. Yes, he went prone! Now this is where it is funny for me because he just said it so nicely, then just gives me his back... I could have killed him with a loaf of bread at this point. So of course I open the cans. Then I offer him my can opener. Did I just offer him my can opener? XD Who is more funny at this point? So he gets back up, and starts eating. At this point I need to live to tell this tale with a happy ending, so I run out while he is stuck in the eating cinematics. I hear him stop and run after me, but he heads in a different direction. Strange encounter, and I guess I don't KOS even in military bases yet. But those that do simply pile another body on their kill count. Me, I get a funny story, a weird story. I like that.

I want to agree with you because I like the concept, but what will happen in real life is a bunch of KOS kids and general weenies will run around the people trying to work together killing them and taking their gear, then logging out right before the zombie wave hits.

It needs to be improved as it is too simplistic BUT it is better than no system at all. Stuff breaks down over time. Heck, I lose more clothes to washing machine damage than anything else as they wear out with repeated scrubings let alone running through thickets and zombies, being shot at, etc. Improve what we have, but for now I am ok with it.

The Answer to all of this this: Give the server admins the right to police their servers. Problem solved.

Very fair. Everyone should watch the movie "The Road." That movie captures what I like about this game.

I have one question: what is their age group? There is your answer, mostly. Congrats to you for being more advanced than them. Take it from an old guy, most of them will change.

Because anyone with 30 bucks in their pocket can buy this game.

I am liking the stun baton BUT the charge lasts what, ten hits? Sorry, but batteries Don't grow on trees. Axe is still the king baby. The barbeque lighter is cute but it sucks bad. The teledvoping baton... Same problem as the bat... Have to nail the head. No thanks.

Can we turn this into the official 0.49 patch discussion? I don't have questions but do have comments like: 1) Love the door open sound. Way more believable and makes hiding in a house better as you can hear people enter. But if you give me a can of WD40 they will call me ninja assassin... 2) Love the smoother game play. 3) Cattle prods? How about leather face masks and naughty underwear? Rrrrowr. 4) To the guy who ran away from me while I had no weapons. PUT ON SOME CLOTHES! THIS IS A PG RATED GAME! TOO MUCH "CRACK," YO! And I did NOT want to see you bend over to hunt for apples.

My first guy this afternoon on my friend's server I got the big red server disco, followed by the loss of all my stuff when I logged back in. The good news is I logged in for two brief stints in my bud's server and I kept my new gear, which is so far way better than my old gear, so bravo. But yes, I am fearful of playing on non-official servers right now. Not that it matters. :P

Yeah, I remember my first game. Make sure you climb the ladder at Green Mountain too. If you do it 20 times in a row a grenade launcher appears. If it doesn't appear, then you miscounted and just need to do it a few more times. :lol:

Why yes, yes I do. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/entertainment/2013/04/who-is-jenna-marbles-and-why-is-she-so-popular/ Game, set, and match: me. :D

True Dat! Don't use any non-firearm not named an IremansFAY AxeYAY.

How about a sawed off Mozin? Would that and an ak be a good combo and would you put a scope on both or just the mozin?

I want to travel around zombieville collecting electronics and assemble them at one of the many radio tower locations and become a ham operator. Maybe I could broadcast polka, read select passages from Great Expectations, or perhaps transmit warnings about eating rotten oranges without any anti-D tablets on hand. "I just flew in from Balota and BOY ARE MY ARMS TIRED! I'm here all weeks folks, remember to tip your captor." But seriously, running a ham outfit w/ generator... It could be quite the easter egg on a server.

Oh my dear man, that is not a negative. That would be 90% of the reason to do it! And it would be EP-IC!

Here here! Eagerly anticipating the first response that is negative, something like, "I don't understand what er sayin'! Why is this so funny? Stop laughing damnit!" lol. Think like the pig. Be, the pig.
