What a sad little post. There is no survival purpose in sniping other players at 500 meters? Really? Which one of these scenarios will result in a personal higher survival chance. Shooting someone from 100m or shooting someone from 800m?

haha He should have been watching your body :)

Just for clarity. They changed the backpacks recently to 1 hour for Improvised and 4 hours for other packs.

Your guess is as good as mine. No idea why he didnt shoot. No ammo perhaps? You can see me panicking in the video while trying to pick up the pistol. I think he dsynced at the end just as I killed him.

haha Remember those guys? I miss them so much I could kiss one

We are making our way to NWAF Tents for some loot and stumble upon a fight between 2 guys just meters from our position. We use this to our advantage and join the party.

At the end of 0.57, I had a few characters with a lot of ammo. I decided to blow off some steam in Stary Sobor

Head up to Novo tower bud. Lots of fire fighter outfits up there.

Next time just cut some stick and some bark. I dont bother with matches anymore. http://dayz.gamepedia.com/Hand_Drill_Kit

I would like something like this to happen, but the problem I can envisage is as follows: First Hop = 5 minutes, PC crashes (2nd) = 10 mins, Wife calls that she needs me for something (3rd) 20 mins, badmin kicks (4th) = 45 mins, DayZ crashes (5th) 1 hour. Now the player cannot play DayZ or risk a 24 hour ban.

The current crosshair isnt very good when aiming out a door. Try standing at an angle in a doorway and move the "crosshair" then switching to ADS. The crosshair often is nowhere near the target

Yup. Dont know how many times the only other player on the server has bumped into me in military areas. As a counterpoint, me and a friend were hanging around the NWAF tents on a 50/50, for around 1.5 hours yesterday, and not a single person was spotted. People will often stay away from high loot areas on busy servers.

I think you have asked this question 1-2 years too early. Its naive to question systems like loot distribution when these systems have not even been completed. To take the shoe analogy further. The SA hasn't even developed feet yet to even start to fill shoes. Commenting that an infant doesn't fill the shoes of an adult yet is a little silly. The infant hasnt even grown up yet. These systems are still being developed. We have 1 vehicle we can repair and use. The granularity of the repair system isnt even completed yet (things like fan belts still to be implemented and I expect you will need to use a tyre iron to get wheels off). 3 more vehicles coming in 0.59 (hopefully all going well). They are working on server improvements before flight. Last status report hints that it perhaps will be addressed in next few patched. Nope. The game has not even been finished, never mind released. Thats because they are iterating the CLE. Its getting better, but may even get worse before its finished. They plan to implement regional control so high value stuff can only be looted further NW. Building control still needs to be fixed as places like NOVO tower shouldn't be spawning fire fighter gear. Have you been to Myshkino tents or NWAF lately? The quanset hut is spawning chopper loot and there are only 3 on the map. 0.57 loot being on gatehouses and not in barracks was a bug, not a game design. Have you even played 0.58? The coastal towns are either ghost towns or you meet the occasional freshspawn who is travelling inland. There is very limited CoD gameplay on the coast anymore. Again subject to change as the loot systems are developed and tweaked

I would go with bug too. Ive died like that in those houses and red-top (3 floor) barns many times. Once when I died in Berezino, I was crouched in a corner of one of those rooms for about 10 mins waiting on a friend arriving (I never moved an inch). Then suddenly the same blackness and "You Are Dead" appeared out of nowhere. I got back to my body and it was outside the house on the ground like I had passed through the wall. I have had several occasions where you hear the crunching of bones and your character yelp in pain before the "You are dead" appears, but sometimes death comes to us all through dsync gods, quietly.

Has the shadow bug been fixed for the crafted pieces? I seem to recall that you could see a player inside a building if they had the chest piece equipped (the shadows were glitched and extended through buildings)

https://youtu.be/d9ATZT8PwwI After spawning in Svetlo, I made my way through Novo and on towards Severograd, where someone took a pot shot at me outside the Police station. What happened next was 30 minutes of intense cat and mouse PVP.

I noticed :)

Nice video guys. I enjoyed it

I didnt accuse you of thieving the photos, merely that lack of full disclosure that they are not your photos means that by inference it can look like you are passing them off as your own. If you want to continue to post other peoples work without giving them credit, go for it. A simple statement saying "Found this imgur post" or something similar would prevent any ambiguity.

Its good that you shared this link, but please in future give credit to the actual person who took the photos and posted them on reddit, as otherwise it just looks like you are thieving his content.

I spotted a group of 3 players near Lopatino and decided to track them. I followed through Lopatino to the Heli crash site, then onwards to the bus garage near Vavilovo. There came a point where I regretted getting too close and passing the point of no return, I decided to engage rather than risk death to several armed players. Filmed on patch 0.57 just prior to the expected 0.58 release (which never came).

Thanks dude I think we can all agree that generally, a 4 man squad up north will kill you 95% of the time. Perhaps they were friendly? I will never know.

Yeah I do feel guilty about destroying them all, but thats DayZ for you. I had to cut out some parts, due to time constraints, where they seemed to be having a laugh. They wouldn't let one of their crew get back in the truck at the heli crash site and kept driving away and stopping. I was chuckling. Perhaps they would have been friendly, but thats the thing...I have to live with my decision to engage first as I will never know what the outcome would have been if I had said hello. Probably death for me
