What I want to know is how bulletproof these vehicles are gonna be. I sense people being angry about not being able to find one, so they set up roadside ambushes with automatic weapons and such. Also waiting to see how many scenes from Fast and Furious will be recreated... Chernarus style!

play on a persistent server.

Always thought the barracks windows were bulletproof glass.. Been shot at numerous times through the window, but always got away clean when I'd play dead and shoot them when they'd come through the door.

I'm old and I suck at it so I play on empty servers.

Well, being that the game is classified as a SANDBOX game.. there really is no WRONG way to play it. Some people would rather make a beeline for the nearest high spawn rate of military loot, then head for Elektro to open fire on anything that moves. That doesn't appeal to everyone. I'll take the solitary gameplay over that any day of the week. Living off the land is more fun in my opinion. -
I have a pretty low end pc now. No SSD. But I have yet to randomly break my legs in any of the buildings listed above.. Maybe the DayZ gods are in my favor.. :)

I still prefer the loner lifestyle. Its so hard to read peoples intentions on this game so I spend more time trying to avoid them as much as possible. If they do sneak up on me and strike up conversation with their mic instead of their gun, I don't mind a quick chat. But if I hear gunshots I'm gonna Houdini my way in the other direction and hope I'm not being followed. If I come upon a new spawn, I'll usually spare a few cans of food and my canteen if I have extra. It makes me feel a little better about myself, and maybe it helps his thoughts toward being hostile toward everyone in the future. -
possible back old aim shooting?, without aim shaking

I understand what you said, I just don't understand the reasoning behind it. If you're really having that much trouble dealing with the minimal weapon sway, this game isn't for you. It really isn't that hard to compensate for.. -

Ok, I think I finally understand what you're trying to say.. You don't run much, and when you go prone, you still have a little bit of weapon sway? -

I'm pretty sure the characters are based on being civilians, probably not military trained. And I don't care who you are, running a long distance with a backpack full of gear, possibly with your clothes soaking wet from the rain and/or sweat would make for one tired dude; probably meaning holding a heavy weapon like a Mosin up without some sort of support from a wall or whatever, wouldn't be easy. Especially if your heartrate is up from sprinting from Vybor to Elektro.. -

I'm sure the aggro range and amazing x-ray vision that the infected have will be fixed at some point. The game is in alpha, so I'm sure that isn't intended. On a side note, if you go prone instead of standing you have less weapon sway. But who really busts off a round to kill a zombie when you could possibly have unfriendly people nearby? I usually wait for it, dispatch it as quickly and silently as possible, and cautiously reposition in case someone did see the infected coming my way. -
You killed a liar, that classifies it as a guilt free act of self defense in my opinion. Good job, buddy.

Sometimes, I can believe it. This is the generation of entitlement.. :( -

So, from what I gather.. you are asking for a perfectly steady weapon aim? -

Don't sprint so much, heartrate won't be so crazy. Makes more people get dead too. -
I have always found at least a repeater or the mp-133 in the train cars. The blue carts spawn mosins and sporters for days.. I usually go for the repeater or mp-133 because I find more .357 and buckshot than anything else. The clothing and backpacks are easy enough to come across.
