He finds the usage of game bugs in order to get yourself a rather unfair advantage cheap. Video says; "enjoy your killing spree as players fail to spot you. and even if you are spotted, just move back and forth." From which he can only conclude that anyone using it will not be there to help people, rather the opposite. tis pretty straightforward tho, but okay, you did it for TWD...

Lol, been there :D Sawed off vs a boar in my case... I shot some 500 arrows thanks to 0.53 exploit and whilst its not hard to repeatedly hit a 30-40m target once you figure out where the dot should be and time the bow swings, it's still pure luck hitting a moving target. I forgot to add.. I dont use the first person thumb view because it often blocks me from drawing when i switch from 3pp. Really inconvinient if something is in the way of your LOS and you need to change camera angle to take a shot. I hope this gets fixed aswell. I would love either a dropoff range buff depending on the arrow type, or dexterity buff once we're able to move & shoot with it. Right now i feel like im turning slower than with most of firearms. Maybe even a different type of bow that draws longer but fires further.

I would never judge your doing on private server. Where you decide to log out is completely up to you. Most of private servers get some nice pvp right after restart due to people trying to hit mil objects first :D I can't really complain, its all fair ground to me. We all know it's gonna go down. Same, ill stick to private servers. Even if you dont get there first, you often get a little something. It's not like 50+ people just hopped the NWEAF due to restart. I find no point in playing publics, unless you like long two hour walks just so you get to admire all the empty mil. objects before another hopper pops you from behind. Hell even if i dont get anything on a private, i know someone at least had to walk here just like me, not on some 1/50 server before he hopped. This was really breaking the experience for me and i almost gave up & joined the dark side because yknow.. who likes walking for hrs and hrs for absolutely nothing. And not just NWEAF tbh, most of police stations from severo to gorka, svetlo and dolina are always looted, like there's an organised hopping group that does nothing but that. And by police stations i really mean police stations only. I had games where id spawn in berezino; police station was completely empty whilst the log house 5m away had two protectors cases and the next L couch house had two PU scopes whilst corner house got me a mosin with clips and ammo. Its clear as a nite same people are hopping same room over and over and over. It doesnt matter if its a full, medium size or 5 people server, i feel like finding gold when i see a police station or a mil object that is not looted. I have no problem getting geared in 10 minutes, but i see no point playing pubs if the civilian gear is pretty much the end game gear for me, unless i wanna join the hopping train. And it's not like im a mil grade sucker, i just dont like being limited due to some players who play it the cheap way. Having a RL outside the game is no excuse either. We all have our RL outside the game. ( more or less :P ) Yeah, no thanks publics. Privates ftw. It would be awesome to prevent players to pick up anything in radius of 1000m for x minutes, if they reconect to another public server in under x minutes of gameplay on previous. I guess it wouldnt work 'cause of random client/server crashes which would result in people crying for getting the injust hopper treatment.

Spotting players - Object Detail high vs normal ?
hekp replied to demon28's topic in General Discussion
I was "testing" this with my friend who runs objects at max. He got to spot me lying in the grass before i could spot see him running on the middle of a road.(lowest settings) You will be fine with normal object setting. Anything lower than normal will put you at disadvantage. You can test it on zombies & use dayzd if you do not have the rangefinder. High vs normal doesnt give you that much more of drawing distance when it comes to players(if any?), it does help versus ghillie suits tho. If someone tested this more intensively, do share your findings. Id take the 7up.- 1 reply

God, bow needs a buff already. Not only you have the slowest projectile, it has 0 range or should i say way too much drop, you cannot move when firing and you can stack max of 5 arrows that already take up two slots. I understand that it is currently not possible to fire and shoot but the rest should defenately be tweaked. What happend to 100% chance of bleeding? Like, people literally laugh at my bow untill i pull out a real gun... :( Not even joking here. crossbows could use some love too. Persistant trucks are fun. I love hidding them all around the map making my secret stashes :D
-
I get the same as you IRL. I cant stand those bit****. Well, i dont freak out, but they annoy me to the point i cant fall asleep untill the f**** is dead. I understand how this could be tottaly uncomfy to play if it sounds too prestine for you. Afaik right now you cannot do anything in audio settings to remove this ( or anything else for that matter, its either nosound or allsound ) I thought i will hate this ingame but so far i dont find it annoying, tbh it doesnt sound so "sharp" as the real mosquito when it fly-bys your ear. Funny thing tho, everytime i hear it ingame im still about to slap myself...i find that a much bigger problem. Thank god they didnt implement this in summer :D P.S Avoid Komarovo. (комар) Ill never forget my first arma3 snake :D dat shiet tottaly needs to find place in dayz..and bite

It seems all dropped items (gloves, shoes,helmet) work as barricades when it comes to V3S. A friend stepped out of his v3s to clear the loot from the road, moved the glove & the truck ran over him :lol: The items were kinda mid-air bugged. I drove over items on the road before; beide the fireplace my truck usualy ignored them. I couldnt strip the body of his gear... so i drove to cherno to pick him up but it was already too late; his body was gone by the time we got back.
-
I might be wrong but i think you were too late? I believe 0.54 already hit stable at that time yday. I was updating to stable minutes before 0.54 hit; got in game & could not join any server and all my favourites dissapeared. Verifying fixed it. As for the menu, Change interface resolution ingame or manualy edit /mydocuments .cfg file.

There are some issues with the 0.54. In case you haven't, delete the startup parameters (-nosplash), it seems to help some people (personaly i still run -winxp -malloc and some others). Haha, I was experiencing the same yesterday. Trust issues seems to be the thing in dayz lol. I get your feeling all the time! Not to mention, how many times i bump into a survivor just so we say "hi" to eachother and stare in akward silence aka "is he gonna shoot me now?" "now?" "how about now?". Yday I met a girl survivor three times. I was checking the new lakes than headed toward Khelm. Im thirsty so i drop my sporter in a bush nearby and take a sip. At that momment a survivor runs pass me. "friendly, friendly". Wearing a pink raincoat she indeed looked like she's not looking for trouble, but yknow, girls of chernarus are usualy heavily protected by their TS buddies and used as baits :D so lets not get all too friendly. Second time i saw her in Khelm. I see her carrying an SKS - probably no ammo. I was already double carrying my guns so i took a risk of giving her a blaze. We could have just grouped up but i get that weird feeling of VOIP company again so i head my way. I continued my route towards Krasno thru forest. I spotted a chicken and just when im about to shoot it some1 appears from behind. Same voice. I started laughing in VOIP, like, no way it's you again. She offered me some shotgun ammo which i didnt need and soon after ran off. Pretty sure she didnt come after me for some shotgun ammo knowing i have a 30rnd sporter, more likely she got her trust issues going and backed off :D Ran to Krasno where I immidiately spotted a guy with a cowboy hat & no backpack. Friendly encounters always soften me up (baaad baaad thing!!!), so i just assume he's friendly. I check the plains for any animals as he finaly catches up with me on Northern part of the town. Hidding behind a house he asks me if im friendly. I replied "but ofcourse fellow survivor, I've seen you entering the town before you even got that drybag&replaced your cowboy hat. No worries" Got my trust right there. He came out and asked me to group up. We headed towards Chernaya Polanas car dump. He would hardly say a word but this time im just gonna blindly trust him. Server restart.

The dupping bug that worked in 0.52 still happens. Honestly, i wasnt even trying. All i need to do is to play with a friend and it will eventualy happen by itself. Trees could swing a bit less. Its getting weird after a few drinks, i was increasingly seeing things cause of all the slight movement. Hell, i was about to KOS an oak.
-
Hm, i was able to punch the chicken a few times before it teleported some 20m away and let me repeat. The boar however spotted me instantly at around 200 & ran off. Ive met quite a few in the woods. i was rather confused at first but then i saw a couple of them chasing the chickens. :o ?
-
found bipod at the bmp wreck. I hear no difference when shooting akm with suppressor or without it. To be precise, the first shot i ever made was a complete silent *click*. All shots after sounded normal. Even after I made two other silencers. None of them suppressed the shot. Does it give any bonus stats compared to improvised arrow?
-
As much as i agree mosin is full of awesome, this video just shows a bunch of newbies being slaughtered lol. With situation awarness like that, a screwdriver could kill all 7.

Aw, i once fell unconcious due to starvation aswell. I was with a group of survivors i met a few minutes earlier. We took a trip to the new prison island. I was constantly getting disconected so i ignored my hungry status in order to catch up with them. As we started swimming over, i started dying of starvation. Just when we reached the wooden dock, i collapsed. Last words i heard were "dont worry, dont respawn, i have a saline bag!" In one momment of my unconciousness i got back my hearing and i could see my quickbar for a few seconds, than it went back to full black and silence again. I waited for around 20 minutes then i hit respawn in case any of the survivors i met is still trying to wake me up.

Best way for me is not to sprint at all. Lying in water all day, being wet can and will backfire at you with freezing status. If you see an orange HOT status drop everything you're doing. For me it feels like the hot status comes after you like vodka. Sure it say "HOT" now, but run another 5 minutes and youll be dying from overheating in 10, even if lying on the floor doing nothing. Keep hydrated status prioritised. Dont ever stuff yourself on food. Be constantly hydrated. Its never a good idea to move out if you're not. Sprinting dry from vybor to NWEAF in a full gillie will kill you. If you're on the move, walk in every water to get wet. Dont sit in, just refresh your wet status. Don't do it if you're about to stop. You dont wanna be damp when you need to sit still. Dont sit wet in v3s. If you're playing on a pers:ON, take a backpack and none of these problems will ever exist. Personaly im not willing to risk those 5 seconds on non pers. servers :P (fu murphy, i know you) Also, when you are crafting a gillie I recommend to have free slots for whatever you are crafting. I've already lost a crafted hood because i was wearing a helmet & had no room in my inventory. The hood simply dissapeared uppon being crafted.Othervise its autoplaced on your head or empty 2x2 slot.

My thoughts eactly... it works so well versus infected yet it always finds a way to dissapoint me when i need to defend myself. I cant believe i didnt notice this. You even have the same avatar. Oh well. uhm..Good luck finding home :lol: ? Btw, sun shouldnt go completey west anyway, I believe the sun rises towards SE and sets towards SW because the days are getting shorter in autumn/winter. Dont take my word for it, i could be wrong altho I read this almost every weak on reddit when some1 posts a broken compass :D
-
Personaly i rage threw the compass away the first time i realised it trolled me. Never used it again. Yday I made a horrible mistake of using a shotgun. The damn random pellet thing is just so random im never picking up a shottie again. First I saw a zombie train chasing a guy in Electro so I checked it out. Guy was so happy to see me he opened fire some 100m away without really having any chance of hitting me at all. He then literally ran into my barrel just so he received no dammage what so ever.I hit the dude 4 times for no effect. He didnt even bleed.. i was about to f11 and shoot myself in the head right there with my last shell but he managed to kill me in the end.At least it took him over 90 bullets, as he killed me in his 4th reload. I Respawn at Bere, get a bow & leather vest. Passing kami when some squeeker starts calling me "hey dude". I turn around and see a freshspawn with mp133.. yeah ok..dont mind if i run off...he starts screaming "ive found a bandit" lol. Seriously? a bandit? I guess the bow gave me away.. They start chasing me and he breaks my legs in one snapshot from bloody 100m -.- I pull out my sawed off (no legs no bow..) and wait for him to come closer to give me the double tap. I shoot him. No dmg. You're dead. Got electro spawn and ran towards kamy. Doesnt take me long untill i track the little rat. He and his friends were in a fight with another party. I ran straight in just as he pulls out my ex sawed off, oneshots some other guy and oneshots me from a distance I wouldnt even bother. On that day halp swore himself he will never use a shotgun in this game again. God was mercifull and gave me vybor spawn after months. Went to veresnik where i watched two squads fight each other. I gained the trust of the winner; i rushed in his face with pickaxe and begged him not to kill me when animation ends. I told him i just want to take the dead bodies shoes if I may. He didnt reply, but he didnt shoot me either.He hid in his bush and let me be. I laid next to the body and started gearing myself.This guy was decked. I was afraid to pick up his mosin and mp5, afterall i only asked for the boots. Then another guy rushes this dude and they start shooting each other. The fight lasted forever. I swear they both had like two secondaries lol. The attacker failed to spot me, so Im thinking of grabing the juicy loot and run off, but something told me to go and help this defender as I heard his character scream from being shot. I try to wield my pickaxe but the character just wont do it, so i run right infront of the attackers gun trying to take a bullet. Seconds later, i manage to get the pickaxe in my hands and as he falls unconcious I start hitting him. I hear an autorifle firing and my screen goes black. Got elektro spawn again. I run down the street and see a gillie dude. "oh look, a walking bush!" The paranoid wookie kept screaming "were you the one shooting with the magnum? were you the one shooting with the magum???" - No dude i just spawned... "you're the one who shot me with a magnum!!!" - No.. You're dead. Dissapointed voice followed "Oh...it wasnt you." Gotta admit, he got me laughing.

Tag & Release #7 - Hardcore - Capturing a heavily geared player.
hekp replied to sobieski12's topic in Gallery
cant help it, its interesting to watch them try after they surrender. Or after being held as a test bunny in a prison cell... That's the one lol. Gotta admire his patience. Looking forward to it :) -
The more energized you are the less weapon sway, true?
hekp replied to lucianpin's topic in General Discussion
nevertheless he is right. your character gets a certain ammount of injuries after time(remember all those hits that didnt make you bleed?yup...) which you do not see in the "tab" screen. -
Awesome stuff! i forever wanted to know rarity of ashwood on skalisty (srsly).

Tag & Release #7 - Hardcore - Capturing a heavily geared player.
hekp replied to sobieski12's topic in Gallery
Hehe, no offense but i always hope they will try to get away or deceive/trick you in some way. I enjoy your taG&release videos and the most interesting are the ones with people plotting against u :D Like, hands down to the raincoat guy u met in prison. Too bad he got so impatient/incautious in the end. Anyway, i think i noticed this before, you never tell them to take off their helmet..nor to take off their gear. Any particular reasons or simply forgot? The way I see it, you would knock him down in first hit and more importantly, saw his weapon in a backpack. I too think he had a fair chance of gunning you down, but he fked up :D Anyway, nice video and I wish you allot of interesting victims for your tag&release purposes :) -
i found 11 in severograd. One shed contained two tho. Second best was berezino with 8. Zeleno is usualy empty for me... Pustoshka has tons of sheds aswell. You can find them anywhere from piano house to car wrecks really. I so feel you. Once i finnished my ghillie i kept picking up the sacks :D
-
yeah..unless you're a fresh spawn just dont go there. It's a desync issue and if you really must, try vaulting in each floor. Supposingly it resets your characters position.
-
i find the roads around the green mountain particulary dangerous. I sunk there 3 times. Whatever you do, dont step out of the vehicle. Once i got auto teleported back to the surface when changing 1pp view to 3pp and in other cases I hit exit (cause the view trick didnt work) and reconected on the surface. Twice i had a passenger, it worked for him aswell. Might be worth mentioning the camera trick only worked when I drove over the edge of the map. Reconecting worked everytime inland. Expect some possible bugged stuff uppon reconecting; In my case my buddy had to reconect again.

Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
hekp replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
Yeah something defenately changed. Im gonna see a zombie running right towards me, ill take out my axe and wait for it when all of the sudden other zombs just teleport behind my back/around me. As if they spawn around the persuing zombie intentionaly for a cheap swarm effect, its weird.I guess the respawn rate was shortened, or maybe they're just desyncing ( they did warn us about increased rubberbanding for 0.53 i believe..) As for the sounds im pretty sure some zombies eiher forget(bug?) or dont do the "persuing" scream.
