BLUE You red idiots are all liking a casual colour. BLUE FTW

Sounds like you are a few hundred metres south of Vavilovo

But, but, if there were not 3PP players peaking while prone over the top of buildings, I wouldn't have lots of lovely trapped sniper targets to shoot from the hills.

I've been lucky enough to only encounter one Squeeker so far. Obviously he tried to hold me up when I was a fresh spawn. My main foes have been Eastern Europeans. I think its something to do with the language barrier as I have had about 4 or 5 now walk up giving it the "I'm Frienldlee" bullshit while trying to shoot you. Only really been double crossed once by 2 guys (again Eastern European) who pretended to drop some ammo on the floor for me then shot me in the head while I looked for it. Wont be falling for that old trick again. Its actually a good thing to die to all these kind of activities as it teaches you how to avoid them in future :)

To make it more "real" they should implement the system that if you eat someone who has never eaten another player before, your fine. But if you eat a player who was a cannibal, you have a chance of getting the disease. Not perfectly like real life but it would be interesting.

The "kuru" effect doesn't quite work biologically correctly in game. The Kuru tribe started to experience BSE/nvCJD because they had a cultural ritual of eating elders brains to pass on their knowledge to the tribe. One individual would have developed the Kuru disease and passed it on through the ingestion of the infected material. They would then have passed it on the the next generation who ate their elders brains. In the game you are just eating another human who wouldn't have eaten any brains before and would have a statistically almost zero chance of passing anything on to the new cannibal.

Lighten up Macdeth

Nice work. Enjoyed the vid

The interesting thing is, if I hadn't given him ammo, would we both have died to the guy who attacked us? These are the decisions in DayZ which play on our minds after events unfold :) I am a really trusting guy in DayZ. I don't give out ammo to everyone I meet, but after a few minutes of talking to people, I can generally tell if someone is an asshole or not. Not been double crossed yet, but I'm sure I will be at some point.

Hehe so you walk Chenarus? I'm not talking about the amount of breathing, its the volume. Its much reduced in 3PP as the focal point of the sound is lower than the camera.

when was lamecore brought up?

Cap'n, its you thats making the issue here. No-one cares about elitism, were talking about camera heights etc

I think you might have overshot here regarding any 1PP elitism. I don't think ricp was being elitist. He didn't say anything like "All you 3PP players are a bunch of noobs" Take a breath

I agree that it feels too low. Makes the game too clostrophobic in 1PP. Can we dial down the breathing while we are at it in 1PP? I dont like having a sex pest heavy breathing right in my ear all the time.

Dont stand toe-to-toe with them Wait until they are about 4-5 feet away from you then sidestep to the left as they get close or start to attack. Once they run past you, close the gap and you will have a few seconds to attack them before they enter their attack animation again. Keep circling them to the left while hitting them with your melee weapon. Dont use the dot on the screen to aim your weapon - thats for picking up items and to help with gun aiming. Melee weapons have different swing arcs and you have to learn them, how far you need to be to hit the zombie etc If you dont have a melee weapon (Axe, Pickaxe, Hoe, Sledgehammer) and only have your fists, punch the zombies head and he will fall to the ground (Keep strafing and only stop in between attack animations). Move around to where his head is and keep punching the head while he is down and getting to his feet and he will instantly hit the floor again. Once you master these techniques, zombies will be a just a minor annoyance

Before you go out and buy a new processor, there are a number of things you can do to improve your FPS. Try the suggestions in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-qwJyvUnHY Also I believe Intel processors have a much easier time with DayZ than AMD.

I know, right? It was just a few minutes later we met the "friendly".

Troll alert Troll alert Troll alert Begone and don't darken this forum again

The devs have said that almost everything in the game is currently a placeholder. Once the new sound engine is done they will most probably rework all these sound files. But in the meantime I agree that they could tweak this one. We got new door opening sounds recently, so a new munching sound file would be nice.

PongoZ did you see the part of the video where I let everyone know we had huge lag and dsync spikes then once it stabilised, took another range to confirm then killed him in one shot?

I know right? I got a range of 833m on the hospital and 770m on the church as a secondary estimate. Good enough for a confident 800 range adjustment. We don't need to know the exact distance.

Rangefinder was completely fine for my 830+m sniper kill. First few minutes of this video, 3:20 for the kill

DayZ Standalone - Beav - Solo Journeys Part 6 - The Adventure with Dimitri I was at NWAF and spotted a dude. I decided to try and talk to him. We had a fun adventure.

We returned to Elektro in this video and spotted 2 players camping on the hospital roof. I provide sniping cover from over 800m+ away
