    Bullet Dmg

    The_Monk replied to Hrki's topic in General Discussion

    Just wait till you have to face bloodbeard. Your bullets will be completely useless.

    Isn't Chernarus essentially a fictional "Czech Republic by the sea"? If so, a quick googly moogly tells me that the czech military has some decidedly non soviet weaponry. Such as MK48, M60 and the M4. Just because the country was under soviet rule, doesn't mean that is all that is available to them. This is something that always bothered me about the "Why are there so many non russian weapons" argument in the mod, and that I'm sure will crop up as more get added to DayZ.

    building effective camo without stepping one foot into a base

    The_Monk replied to Ineedscoffee's topic in Gallery

    My only suggestion is to lose the glasses. I have killed many a survivor because his glasses shone at night.

    Not enough zombies. So many spawned that you couldn't distinguish one from the next in the constant stream. /Endbackinmydayoldmanrant

    Out of the loop, would love to be caught up.

    Sadly waiting for the hotfix before there are any 40+ servers again. Network issues keep the player pop low.

    I don't think even the mind liquid patch compares to the zombie black hole patch that happened. The zombie respawn check was broken, so the moment you killed a zombie, this portal to the netherworld opened and it spewed zombies out in a never ending tide. Or the random gear swap patch. Every log in was an adventure! Good times.

    Post Your Gear So Far

    The_Monk replied to CS14's topic in Gallery

    Hardcore character, has been alive a month or so. Too many guns, too much ammo. Still hunting a damn mosin. Regular character, has been alive 2 days or so. Too much ammo for the wrong guns, mosin has a single round, FNX has no clips. Hunting for an IZH.

    Rolling Update Rev - 0.43.116251

    The_Monk replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements

    That suppressed 22 is about as loud as the one in game. All you hear is the action click.

    Rolling Update Rev - 0.43.116251

    The_Monk replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements

    Silenced guns are only silent in movies. Their advantage is the sound is muffled slightly and so supersonic whip crack when the bullets whiz past someone. Makes it harder to gauge direction.

    This will become a horrifying train wreck. Keen.
  11. The_Monk
    At the moment you can avoid being punched by the 5 zombies following you by slowly walking in a circle, it isn't often I get hit. Then you slow walk your zombie pack across your new friend and wander off. Zombies change agro to the closest person at the moment, which is why you need to run rings around them while a friend is bandaging, or the idiots re agro on him kneeling there.

    If I've just shot you in the legs to stop the zombies from eating me, do you really think I am going to hang around to watch? Defeats the purpose of using someone as a decoy.

    The_Monk replied to Hicks_206 (DayZ)'s topic in News & Announcements

    Painkillers are meant to get rid of those irritating moans when you get injured. Not entirely sure if they work as those moans normally get me killed before I can find painkillers.
  14. The_Monk
    Trusty buckshot to the legs normally stops them running away to agro more ;)

    breaking legs to grief

    The_Monk replied to gannon46's topic in General Discussion

    They only time I break someones legs is to save myself. A crack in the knees will drop them and provide a neat target for the zombies now that they furiously respawn.

    FFS make animals not make Z noises...

    The_Monk replied to perforin's topic in General Discussion

    I have a feeling the birds make the noises too. Though there are some global Z noises and global reload sounds.

    Pistol Magazines

    The_Monk replied to Forrelist's topic in General Discussion

    I'll admit to it being 4am and me not reading your comment properly regarding empty mags/random number of bullets in the mags.

    Pistol Magazines

    The_Monk replied to Forrelist's topic in General Discussion

    Pretty much this. I imagine once our dear friend, Zed, starts dropping loot, clips/mags will become a lot more common. They are limited in their delivery methods at the moment.
  19. The_Monk
    They distort the further away you are. I was speaking clearly with someone at NEAF and I was in Solnichny. They have a few kms range at least.

    The_Monk replied to perforin's topic in General Discussion

    The bunnies chasing you and making zombie noises adds a small element of terror/hilarity. The first time it happened, I almost ran off Pik Kozlova thinking Monty Python was here.

    Pistol Magazines

    The_Monk replied to Forrelist's topic in General Discussion

    Think of it this way, someone owned that gun you just found on the floor besides that suspicious blood stain. There is a reason they don't have it in their hands right now. You're going to struggle to find mags with guns.
  22. The_Monk
    Also, don't leave them on if you're worried about someone around. Other people can hear voices/read chat that comes through radio. It also distorts over range.
  23. The_Monk
    There are always a few in fire stations. I grab one whenever I can, very rarely hear anything though because most people haven't figured it out yet, and most people that find them are like me and just listen in.
  24. The_Monk
    If you stick a 9V in a walkie talkie, you get 5? global channels you can switch between.
  25. The_Monk
    The walkie talkies give you a kind of global chat. Maybe it is referring to that.
