    Too serious WAY too serious

    whilst i did giggle @ "tango follow me", i couldnt ask for a better information on enemy location than " x oclock x clicks". What's really annoying is getting sloppy info such as "theres a sniper on the roof". Gee, a roof, thanks.
  5. afaik nato and east suppressors can be found at heli sites. Pistol suppressors are allot more common and can be found all over where the LRS/PU can spawn.

    How was your Day(Z)?

    Decided to visit the prison island for some mags yesterday. My friend was already there, so I had to swim over. He was a bit impatient so he logged in a few minutes before i reached the island. Just when i was entering the prison complex, he literally bumped into a guy in barracks. Altho my friend had no harm intentions, the guy started drawing out his SKS. My friend closed the bathroom door and locked himself in :D When i got there a minute later, the guy was standing infront of the barracks aiming his SKS at the door. I take my aim and ask him "why would you do that? He said he's friendly" before blowing his head off. We continue our journey to the prison tower. As we climb i could swear i heard another pair of footsteps. Theres another guy in the tower; one level below us. I take out my newly pimped mp5 and proceed clearing the staircase. Nothing. I return to the second floor. I try to pass the metal doors in the tower when i get stuck in mid air. WTH. I couldnt move, nor control my caracter. Couldnt pull out a weapon nor use my neck. I hear footsteps. Fuck, its him. He came from the upper balcony with a mosin. Well shit, again the ingame sound trolled me. I call my budy back altho i knew he cant help me as i was stuck, blocking the LOS. Second shot from the mosin drops me. My friend comes in and shoots the guy. Dude ruined everything i had in two shells. Oh well. I get a Cherno spawn, so i decide to run back to the freebie island. As I get to ballota AF, i pick up a gorka, balistic helmet & a backpack. I continue my way towards komarovo by the beachsite. As im leaving Balota near the docks, I get a hude desync and end up some 50m away up in the air, falling into the ocean, hitting the bottom, breaking my legs. Good thing i dont have a single sharp object. This shouldnt be a problem right? right ???????? I crawled for what is now known to be my personal record. I tried collecting kindlings from the bush, or rocks from the beach but hey, my leg is broken, the game obviously wont give it to me that easily. I crawled by the tracks near the swampy area for 700m, untill i finaly reached Komarovo. I hit the first shed: A bloody shovel. Second shed: URgh, broom Pub. No morphine. Another shed: lead pipe yet another shed: broom kiosk: spray paint yet another kiosk: nothing yet another one: nothing yet another shed: crowbar. Now, crawling for way over 1000m, I searched every shed in komarovo not finding a single blade. In this time i noticed how friggin hard it is to crawl into buildings. I hope this gets adressed at some point. I got desperate, so i called a buddy to swim back from the island else im gonna derringer my fate. As he's swimming back I crawl into a police station. One of rare buildings you can actualy crawl up the stairs, if i may add. I try to get to the roof. What a mistake. I glitched myseld into the spiral staircase pretty much like one can do it in prison building. Problem is i have broken legs. Cant walk, cant stand up, cant get out. My friend arrived but i was long sunk into the stations texture. I tried to bug myself out, ot at least bump out my rear so he could give me the "treatment". No success. Luckily he brought a zombie who aggroed on my hitbox in the middle of the street, successfully killing me. Got Kozlova spawn, ran back to reunite. Almost got rekt by a guy shoting at me asking if im friendly, but this time i did it.

    How to Approach other players?

    Naw man, i always wanna learn a new word or two. Most of survivors love it, its a cool icebreaker :P

    Catch 22

    Yeah, same. It's hard to make them believe you don't want to take their last 10hrs of gearing up, unless you're better armed. Then its hard to believe them :) Yeah, i tried that in my early days. They wasted their bullet aswell :P BUT, it also worked a few times. One time i rushed a ghillie guy who was fueling his truck. I parked in his face with a sledge hammer so he knew i was one click away from taking everything hes got. Than i told him "don't worry, im not gonna kill you, im friendly. Please dont shoot me, i just spared you. Is there a chance you could give me a ride to Berezino ? (Funny enough, i died there 20 minutes ago after trying to communicate with a group of two but ended up being killed) I took off the sledgehammer knowing he will be less nervous if i do so. After his animation ended he offered me a ride. Sadly i never caught the bastards. personaly i just wish i would have 100% break legz skill. That's the easiest way :P Dont wory, the morphine is on me.
  9. Me neither, but out of curiousity, how does that make any sense? AFAIK the AK family hardly needs any maintenance ? Wouldnt AK perform better if I had neglect them equaly?

    Catch 22

    Dont give up, it really gets easier. You will be able to read these "signs" much faster after a few more #rekt incidents. I usualy avoid intercations near mil. objects alltogether. And it's not because i wouldnt want any interaction, trade or what not, but like you said, some people will go into a fight even if they cant gain anything from it. If you want interaction without getting screwed over and over you need to corner him, so he has no chance but to either comply or enjoy the beach trip. Nothing beats a forced friendship! Also, dont ever trust groups. Groups are the worse. There's always, always that asshole who will try to kill you, altho the rest of the group might like you. I've seen this way too many times. IF you cant get a shot on both, dont go. You need to control the situation all the way else they will use the opportunity. Obviously there are exeptions. So far i met around two friendly groups out of 20+. This experience will vary from player to player. Only thing I would do different when meeting these two guys is imo, having your shogun in my hands. Remember, you cant trust anyone but yourself. You should run in his animation-eating face with your shotgun up and introduce yourself aiming at his face and try to calm situation down. The second his buddy came and draw out his mosin you should pump them open. There is no middle field. It's either them or you. There's a fine line and th second they cross it you need to take actions. I think that's the most exciting part of it, really. Chopper site is a really bad spot. Always try to have at least a big wall or a bush that you can hide or run to, use for cover or surprise flanking. Beside your wrong judgment of not opening fire, location was imo really bad to control the situation vs 2 players. Dont go all KOS, you will lose out ona a huge fun part of the game if you dont try to interact. You will lose your gear anyway and youll have no awesome stories to tell. And like others said, try private shards.

    Where to next?

    Kind of like this, only more to your left ? If you didn't check the cell properly, you might have missed a guy there; People often crounch there and peek outside the prison, especialy when they're in groups. I prefer to camp the corner right next to the staircase when my buddy does the looting. I do kinda doubt that you would fail to spot him.

    Where to next?

    :) Very often, very hot spot. Veresnik mil base is just next to NWEAF, a lil south from vybor & right next to a sniping hill so it's a popular survivors destination. It's probably the next waypoint for many peoplethat hit green mountain&zeleno. I probably had more encounters @Veresnik than NWEAF due to its small size. It's not that uncommon to come across a loot someone dropped. I've been there; dropping ak&its mags for another assault rifle.I do throw them in bushes tho, but many dont.If the stuff you've seen was ruined you've probably found remains of someone who died not long ago (unless its presistant it happen this restart) As for your death, did you hear where the shots were comming from? Could there be two? In what direction were you facing at the time when you got shot. It sounds like one of the glitches low lifes abuse untill they fix it. You can glitch yourself in the prison building wall and shoot from there without being seen. Did you close the prison door behind you? Anyway, it would be nice to hear some more details before we jump to conclusions :) About the sprinting sound i have no idea, but my wild guess would be around 20-49m (voip is set to 50m i believe?), just enough to hear anyone sprinting around the building you're in. Be advised audio is not reworked yet, there is still allot of sound bugs.

    Where to next?

    For some reason i love reading the newcommers adventures. Altho its always pretty much the same story, the actors different :D I recommend you not to walk on firestation&ATC roofs once you're geared (desync can break your legs) . If you're entering military objects on your own, spend a couple of minutes monitoring the area. Remember, you're allot harder to spot if you dont move. You will "sunk" back into the bakground. It's the movement you are looking for. Always plan your route in advance. Always assume you will have to run. When dealing with zombs, kill them fast, quiet and out of anyones sight. Dont ever eat or drink (my friend does it all the time and i swear to god one day i will shoot him, pretending its not me, just to teach him a lesson lol) Dont read AK101 inscriptions in the middle of NWEAF (yup, my friend...I really need to shoot him lol) Move fast, pick what you came for & leave. If you think you heard something, you probably did. If you think someone probably heard you, he did. If you think you are being followed, you are. If you think im trying to make you paranoid, you are right, but its for your own good :P
  16. Sorry, this is just not true. Dont we all roll with w/p items? I have several characters pimped up with stuff that I obtained in over 100hrs of surviving and searching heli crashes. Only once i made a mistake of dying in a noob zone (elektro) just so i got to hear some squeeking "OMG guys a dupper, i killed a cheater *gasps* " accusations. Gotta say, that accusation pissed me allot more than it should. Im not saying there is no duppers- unfortuantely there is tons of, but some of us actualy earned our gear fair. You can often see by players inventory he actualy "cared" about his loot. I find most of the duppers lack something. they will either wear a normal jacket, normal jeans and a mountain backpack so full of ammo you will drop/lose a mag everytime youll want to reload. This is a typical dupper. Their inventory makes no sense. Its never practical, cause they cant bother with free stuff. Do you think any of the normal players would risk losing a mag they were searching for hrs (sometimes) and overkill themselves with so much ammo they would drop bandages for it? Justa saying, tottaly decked out player shouldnt always be consider a dupper on the spot (altho he probably is) If you're sick of beach clusterf**** and you go inland, its only the matter of time when will you get completey decked out.

    0.55 Experimental Question

    IF you're getting 7 fps now, dont hope the new renderer will make it any better. I mean, it will, but dont expect it to make such a huge impact all the fps problems will be gone. I get to play with higher fps on 1,7 ghz so be sure to google all about launch parameters and .cfg edits to improve your games performance. There is thousands of tutorials on this subject.

    DayZ needs more loot

    Because you got there first. There is no extra buildings. He is right; Server names such as 1000% loot are BS. I think there's already way too much loot esp food and firearms. at the same time i wish i found a pen/note/book in every school backpack. Some loot has weird spawnpoints. Also, i really think I should have a 100% chance of finding rocks, sticks, apples, feathers...everything im looking at and its already there.

    First kill

    My first death was in first half a minute of dayz. I spawned on electro docks and got axed by a player before i could even move. MY first kill was with a mosin in berezino wooden clinic. It was in a self defense. Got shot 2 seconds later by his friend aiming down the hall "Second" character died in pavlovo at 130hrs.

    Where to next?

    You shouldnt have a problem finding another raincoat, and just in case you dont know, gorka jacket is waterproof aswell. My thoughts exactly :D

    Where to next?

    you dont need to keep your matches in yellow protectors case. You cant soak/ruin them. Dont get attached to your gear, you will lose it. Only factor you can somewhat influence is how long will you keep it. I suggest you go and hit a few zombies as a newspawn. Just memmorise the timing of their attack animations and when to dodge it. After the dodge you can punch them unconcious and repeat. It's ridicilously easy, all you need is some practice. If you have a low blood eat untill you get healing status. You usualy get it after you hit bright green hydrated and energized.

    On the subject of notes.

    Well.. as it is right now, i wish the notes stayed on persistant:ON servers. I was playing a bit on some pretty lonely pers server and i left around 6 notes all over prison island. I then logged out and relogged about an hour later (after the restart) None of the notes stayed, wtf :( I super highly doubt it someone found all six.. and picked them all up on a 2-4/50 pop server. I always thought the notes stay untill wednesday restart. I want teddys with notes removed, waste of "read" action. Another thing is, that's how i carry my personal note on me if i die. I wonder if anyone even bothers clicking "read" knowing these spawn with notes inside.
