    CR-527 Magazine?

    There are quite a lot of factors that play in. I've also been hit by both winchester, blaze and SVD and survived with only my vest and everyhting in it ruined. The type of vest and the items in it do counter damage, also the angle of the bullet plays in quite a lot. If you're hit from the side for example, the arm may take a lot of the damage so you survive due to it. Health level also plays in and the bone stat. Dayz is weird in that way, sometimes you can surive multiple hits in a row and other times one-shot by a chambered makarov :/

    How was your Day(Z)?

    Sigh. Now its getting to the point where it starts to get unfunny again. I was in Cherno and heard a guy shooting at bambis. I located him and shot at him but didnt hit. He came to get me and I made a little ambush in the TEC building. He opened the door and I rushed out to mow him down, but there was nobody there. Then he shot me. And there was still nobody there. I could hear the shots coming from the wall side of the staircase but there was nobody there. Then I died. A similar thing happened to me on 0.57. Turns out the guy had gone into the wall at the bottom floor and shot me through it. I didn't know it at the time until I went back for my corpse and he was still in there so I could see his gun sticking out. But this time it was on the second floor. Maybe it was just some kind of desync.

    Looting up on low pop server

    You should be aware that if you go on a server with only 4 or 5 other people in order to get guns and gear, the other people on the server are most likely there to do the same thing and chances of running into someone at NWAF for example are quite great. I've had it happen three times where I have been on a server with only one other person on it and we've ended up gunning eachother down at NWAF. I used to go on empty servers to loot up when I was new. Its a good way to learn the game, the map and where to find stuff. it does get quite boring after a while though so I rearely do it nowadays, mostly to get away from somewhere after a server restart or similar. It IS considered a bit lame but I dont see a problem with it when you are new. I do however dont understand why someone would stay on a server where no people go and use it as some sort of base of operations and then go to other full pops for Pvp. It seems a bit fishy but its quite common from what I gather. Its only possible on public servers where you carry over your character.

    How was your Day(Z)?

    Something really stupid killed me again. I logged into a private server and it turned out I was on the second floor of the camo building at NWAF. Almost right away two guys come running adn one goes upstairs. I wait, hoping they will leave but he comes into the room where I am. I have my gun on him, hoping he will just not attack but ofcourse he does. I react right away, way quicker than he and with hip fire, sight on target I shoot six shot swith my SKS. Not one of them hit at 2 metres range. All i have time to say before he kills me with his AK is WTF? I see the bullets hit the wall to the left of the player. He actually apologizes for killing me afterwards . I respawn and play on the server for a bit and its really laggy and then crashes or restarts. I dont care about the dying itself but its quite annoying to die because of lag. Even more annoying is that it killed me the other day as well when first a flashbang wouldnt blow up and then I couldnt reload my AK.
  5. 2nd chances are wasted. I met two guys yesterday that started to shoot at me the moment they spotted me. I ran away and barricaded myself in a house, They couldnt get to me so instead they started talking about getting along and other nonsense. After a while I got shot due to Dayz not working as it should and then they continued to tell me how they were going to let me go. Yea right.

    How was your Day(Z)?

    I spawned near Kamy and as i approached the town i heard an SVD nearby on the hill. I snuck up on the hill and waited sitting perfectly camoed in my red training suit with a rope in my hand. I hear shooting again but further up and as I move towards it I see some movement in a tree very near to where I was sitting. Turns out theres a ghillied guy laying there with an SVD. I sneak closer to tie him up but ofcourse he hears me(always) and tries to shoot me, he misses and bolts away. i run after, armed with a mighty stick. As Im pursuing him, another ghillie guy, also armed with an SVD comes running towards us and tries to shoot me but misses. I keep myself between ghille duper no 1 and 2 so they cant fire without hitting themselves and whack away with my stick. I get a few hits in but ofcourse they have no effect and in the end I am gunned down. They guys expend at least two clips each to kill me and when I'm dead I am ofcourse called a loser and noob because I failed to kill two ghillies with SVDs with my stick that I cut from a tree. I also had an extremely annoying thing happen that will pursue til my grave. I came upon a heli site and went to it. As I was looting someone shoots at me but misses so I take cover behind the heli. I note where the shots are coming from but see nobody so i decide to bolt away. I run across a hilltop and down on the other side and as I do I see two guys pursuing me. well over the hill i go back and lie down behind a small wall and ready my Rak. The guys come running and go past me so I sit up aim and mow em down. or I would have but instead my gun goes "click!" I try agian but just click. They hear me and start shooting. I try to frantically put another magazine in but its so stupid and time consuming to remove the magazine, eject the bullet and put another one in that i get killed ofcourse. This really need to be addressed. I like the fact that guns can jam but what is needed is a quickfunction for clearing the jam. One button to press for removing the bullet causing the issue and inserting the mag again. Also a gun with pristine quality and pristine magazine and bullets shouldnt jam, ever.

    Problems with in game chat

    Just because it works in windows or speak programs doesn't mean it works. In Steam theres a setting for speech, go to it and test, If you hear yourself it will work ingame.

    Is there any hope left? Please tell there is!

    There is hope, Trump might still choke on one of his steaks before his inauguration.

    CR-527 Magazine?

    I stopped using the magazine for the cr as its so annoying when you scope, fire and it goes away from the scope to cock the gun. If you chamber it and use hotbar to reload it fires basically as well but without the annoyance. I really like using it, mostly for its cool looks, but it does lack the one-shot kill power of the blaze and winnie. I also like the sporters look, painted black with scope. Awesome. Sad that its so inneffective at range though.

    The boar pack is actually 5x5 so its really big enough for end game stuff. No need to look for a hunting backpack. Too bad boars are so rare. And it doesnt seem like you can do backpacks with any other pelts.

    You seem to not understand what you've bought or what is going on. Wait for the finished game or go play some other survivalist games meanwhile. So many things are happening now that perhaps should have been done much earlier. Renderer, player controller, sound etc. These things will not be finished for quite a while but will not change the core of the game or what it is, If you cant enjoy the game as it is now, there is not a lot that says that you will enjoy the finished product. Actually, i have some problems understanding what people complaining about the game really believe that it will be. Have you not played Dayz before? The game is and has always been about looting and gearing up your character while avoiding to be killed byt the environment, zeds and other players. All of these things have already been in the game in one fashion or another. There is nothing more to these aspects than balance. More and more dangerous zombies, Weather conditions that actually make a difference, scarcity of food and more Kos-ing assholes. The base building is something that people seem to build a lot into but I dont see it changing the game very much. I havent even built my first base yet as its too much hassle for just getting it stolen. I built a small base in ARK but someone ruined it and stole all my stuff. A lot of hard work wasted. Its just not worth it.

    How was your Day(Z)?

    Today I got into a few firefights, died twice and killed two people. I found a car tent full of gear quite close to cherno and some bit later a car probably belonging to the guys with the tent as its battery and a wheel was there. I didnt take all the stuff, just some things I needed and left some guns behind. I even left the car. And I got shot shortly after. I also noticed some really dumb behaviour. First and most notably, a guy hears me, says I'm friendly and then turns the corner firing. Why? Hes clearly not friendly. Nobodys falling for it so whats the point? Just say "Im gonna kill you" instead. Second guy, spawns basically at the same time as me in Elektro and five metres apart but I can go up and check his name before hes active. I greet him but he leaves right for the police station. I loot some houses and ten minutes or so later I go to the police station. Someone shoots. I notice the guy on top of the hospital so I climb up to talk to him. Hes still freshspawngeared but with a hat and a gun and just sits there trying to shoot people going by. I comment on his stupid behaviour and leaves. I gear up and go to the deer stand up the hill. I find a Bino so i check the hospital and the guy is still there. What an asshat. Minutes later I meet a well-geared guy on his way to Elektro so I tell him about the guy on the roof. He gives me some ammo. I check the playerlist later and the roofguy is gone :)

    Hacker or Lucky find?

    No, Ive found quite a few vehicles but cant be bothered to get all those damn tyres that are needed. Also, it seems you need to use the newui to remove/stuff from cars and i dont want to use that crap. I usually find at least one heli crash every day, sometimes two but theres never SVD's or Fal's on them.

    Made my first Boar backpack, and it is Swe-e-e-t

    Hacker or Lucky find?

    6 ropes? No way. Clearly a hacker. But seriously, people can serverhop for a bit and get this gear quite easily. I havent found either an SVD or FAL yet and not for lack of trying. But I dont hop.

    How was your Day(Z)?

    Well, not anything special but I came to teh Factory north of solnichy with a medium-geared character. I saw a guy so I took cover And was insta-shot by someone I never saw. I spawned right nearby so I ran there to see who the a-hole was and theres a group of four geared guys by my corpse. I run up and ask what teh fuck they think they are doing and ofcourse they shoot me like a bunch of *****-** *****-** *********** ********* prankstas. I decide to go somehwere else. Later I login with a guy in cherno. I have a scope Cr527 so I play it cool like. I hear some people shooting and notice two players killing a bambi. I shoot one of them and then shoot him again when he comes to collect his gear. The other guy slips away so I relocate. I notice a guy in the police station shooting everyone who walks in with a shotgun So I decide he needs killing. As I'm waiting for him to show himself the two a-holes from before show up. They chase shotgun guy for a bit so i decide to intervene and shoot the same guy from before again, lol. Then I leave. I play with another character who's near the airfield so i go there. Its strangely empty, very little gear and no people. Until I get to the big metal sheds by the quonset. A guy starts unloading on me with an ak so i run out and away. I hear him chasing so I pull out my pump-action shotgun and give him a blast. He also shoots and I die. I see my blast him him in the legs but i dont know if he died or just got broken legs. Nobody loots my body or talks til I respawn so maybe I got him. Also went to Myshkino and got shot way up in the forest by someone I never saw. I met a few nice people. One guy gave me an improvised bow which i later used to try and hold up a guy for fun. he didnt take it well but after a couple of minutes of running and single-chamber gunning we decided to go separate ways. A few others talked a bit and ran away. Killed a boar and made my first improvised leather backpack.

    Bandit or Hero?

    It happens quite a lot to me, someone running by not seeing me, especially on 1pp servers. People aren't always that observant. Then again, I often get shot dead without seeing or hearing a thing.
  19. Killawife

    Bandit or Hero?

    You are still wrong but hey, do what you like. if you want to ruin the game for yourself and everybody else, do so. I get killed every day by people going "Get rekt nub" or something similar but its just meaningless and not particularly interesting in any way. If I get a spawn nearby I run to these people to try and get an explanation to why they would kill a lone player with no gear outnumbered four to one. I never get an explanation. Then I respawn somewhere else and go on playing. I DO understand that its fun to shoot your guns and I DO understand that murdering bandits roaming the world of chernarus creates tension but some people just seem to be cretins.

    M4 and AK101

    The guy writes that he went to 60-70 heli crashes. Thats like a weeks worth of work spent. It took me five seconds to write the comment. Theres a difference.

    Are aviators still spawning?

    Yes but they are mirror glass now, not black. In the olde barracks as stated above. I found one in a Tec building aswell but dont know if it was dropped.

    DayZ Atmosphere

    It looks creepy alright. But I'm pretty sure that someone hanging themselves wouldn't tie their hands behind their back beforehand.

    Can I Run DayZ Retail (POST HERE)

    No engraving? Your computer is fine. The graphic card is a little weak and if you are byuing everyhting new you might consider the gtx 960 instead of 950. A SSD disk is also a good investment as it makes the whole computer faster. It wont increase fps though.
  24. Killawife

    Bandit or Hero?

    No you are wrong. The best times you have is when you meet some random guy, talk for a bit then go along and end up some gunfight. Who cares if you get shot now and then, its the point of the game. Kiling people for no reason is stupid. Maybe if gear get Ultra-rare it might become valid to actually kill someone for it but as it is now its just dumb to go after people for their gear. I've had people chase me through several towns just to get my jacket or backpack when they could just've gone into those towns and found it there. They probably do it just for something to do though but its super-stupid to do so, especially when I just lead them to a dock and jump in.
