    Having difficulty?? We got your back.

    I've been riding with these guys the last month or so and i can highly recommend them if you want a helping hand, organized ops and last but not least, shits and giggles :)
  4. Are you an AltF4 fag or have you gotten these kills legit OP?
  5. ollo (DayZ)

    You're playing too much Dayz if...

    When you drive in the country side and wonder if the barns got any winchesters or beans in them.
  6. You're not the only one buddy. It can only get better imo when the worst bugs have been addressed (altf4, very glitchy zeds etc). Looking forward to play this game for a long time.
  7. Sup troll? Didn't you get to enjoy your daily fap today in the basement of your parents house? Too bad man. Have a nice day :)
  8. Oh my oh my, can't wait to blow up some flying heli's with the m107 :D :Edit: I can confirm working choppers on the rooftop of the hospital in cherno.

    Should DayZ Be Censored?

    80% of the posters in this thread sadly miss the point of the OP, due to either the wording and/or phrasing of the proposed problem statement, or their lack of ability to comprehend this possible future scenario discussion. Personally i do not believe that Dayz will reach this point where the player is given absolute freedom of choice to behave in any way they see fit. Simply due to the development team being limited by the Arma II engine, and the moral media outcry that would without doubt create a shitstorm of epic proportions. Look at how the Airport level "No russian" in COD:MW2 was recieved. It was condemned as being sadistic and what not, but proposed an interesting choice to the player who could either actively participate in killing civilian NPC or be the passive bystander. I do believe they patched in a choice for skipping the level alltogether after a while where it had created a large amount of publicity. You are on the right track in regards to achieving a higher level of horror immersion, by having no limition to player behavior, but i do not believe that envoking a feeling of horror is Rocket's vision or main point of focus. Experiencing horror can be a part of surviving in any real life scenario, but it is not a guarenteed component. To me it seems that survival (and as many of those components that surviving is based on) is the key concept Rocket is striving for, and the immersive aspect is triggered by the feeling of connection you as a player build with your character, by experiencing as many of the survival components as possible. Some examples are the need for basic supplies such as food, water and the effect the weather conditions (to a faulty degree) has on your character. Another good example of horror immersion would be the youtube video of a player who filled his house with the dead bodies of his murdered housecarls in Skyrim (can't remember the name of the clip itself). I actually experienced something that was akin to horror but which evolved into a more comical scenario. With an M107 i accidently shot a friendly in the foot which caused him to loose a lot of blood and go unconcious. My team and i promptly went over to drag our downed ally to a safe spot in the woods (we were hanging out in elektro just north of the firestation), and what followed was a graphical glitch of our friend's neck that looked as if it had been broken and stretched in an extreme way. Then we noticed how the dragging animation looked like these two guys were "getting it on", so what happened was that it ended with 5 guys "raping" our downed ally while we were pissing ourselves laughing and he was pleading us top stop "fucking around" and get him up again. He thought it was funny too but it was rather "horrific" in some sense but funny at the same time.

    Weapon Damage Nerfs

    Bwahahaah, oh my your tears are just so delicious! "Buhu i have to headshot zombies now" Guys please, since when was headshotting not the name of the game in any zombie related universe? Geez, grow a pair would you?
  14. Whoa, so much crying about dying in Dayz. And that comparison to Super Smash Brothers? Dude if you had any "skills" in that game you would have avoided your "noob friend" until the hammer expired. All you want is pretty much a second chance at anyone who takes a shot at you, and actually manages to hit you. Can't you see how a complete opposite that is to the term skill? Why should you be given a second chance? If you were in a position that results in you getting shot, then that isn't because some "noob" was lucky, it's entirely your fault for not scanning and checking the area first. Sure people spawn in behind you in main cities or point's of interest, but that isn't an issue that should be solved by lowering the weapon damage.
  15. I'm sorry to hear about the incident, but it is well known that whenever a server restarts you need to have disconnected in order to save your character. The result was what you experienced, being teleported back in time from where you started when you first logged in. Regards, CPL Ollo [4th] SiCo.

    Storage and hording

    I perfectly understood your point jdz, problem is it's simply not true that dying doesn't matter if you have a camp with supplies. I usually run around with the best gear i have found, due to the fact that camps inside the map do get found and raided pretty often. Now when i have the best gear on me, i do care if i die, since there is a high chance that the guy who killed me, is gonna steal all my shit. Hence, i care about dying, very much, even though i have a camp.

    Welcome to Alpha! A message to the community.

    @Castle: Your mom. Trolololo Seriously though. It's hard not to sort of get attached to the gear, but thats the great thing imo. You get attached and loose it, which invokes a feeling of loss and desire to regain what has been lost, and the regaining part/process is hella fun! Report dem bugs peeps, thats what we're here for.
