    The UMP

    To be fair you guys Both make good points. It depends mostly on the bullet type. Not long ago we had fmj 9 mm at my work. I can tell you from experience that I shot a person 3 Times and he still came rushing at me. It was a leg shot followed by a double tap in the stomach. Granted the person was on drugs so that negated a lot of the pain. Now we have action effect. Its like a hollow point but not quite. It opens up on impact making sure all of the energy gets unloaded unto the body creating stopping power. Hence knockback. Maybe they need to make visible what kind of 9mm it is in game. They probably wont. Same goes for the .45. But Lets be honest bullet type and gun types are Just badly implemented after the good old 0.63 update.

    DayZ Update 1.13

    They are not rotting flesh, they are infected. Normal human beings that have a rage disease. Nothing more nothing less. They are not shuffling brainless idiots. So yes they should be hard, fast, deadly. Also DayZ is not a AAA game. Its an idea taken from a game. And a good Idea at that.

    Takistan

    Almost everything is PVP nowadays. Trying to talk usually gets you killed. It creates more kos-ers by that mentality.

    Currently working on Deer Isle, but that's next on the list. 🙂 chernarus Just doesn't do it for me anymore.

    How long do shelters last?

    We are like that too. 🙂 As for hackers dont play on official servers. You should try modded: zero Esseker, zero deer isle, spaggie namalsk, spaggie livonia. Its not hacker free buy waaaaaaay less then official

    How long do shelters last?

    It was on a 7 Day timer, whereas if you interacted with the tent (moving items around) the timer would reset. I believe this is still the case. This has nothing to do with getting killed in your tent. We have been killed in/near our tent a few Times. Usually the tent got found and is being camped (no pun intendid) Waiting for your return. Players tend to keep the best loot on Them so killing the owners is more lucrative then looting the tent (most Times) Best time to kill the returning player is once he is interacting with the tent. Therefore in a group always have eyes out and not all going through inventories. Most important the tent wont kill you when it gets deleted.

    Examples of "bad".

    So? Map knowledge is a skill, knowing where you spawned and which direction to go for the best start of your toon.. What year(s) was that? Development is so slow its almost always been like that. Especially food and drinks going yellow quick.. Yes today they adjusted it for you to make it even harder. I guess with all info you provided you must come to the conclusion that even tho you played it for years (as a run gun pew pew Shooter probably) you are Just not good at DayZ as a survival game. See problem one. Dont sprint.

    Examples of "bad".

    Your character also is on cold temp which Will drain energy even faster. Get warmer clothes, even ugly ones, dont sprint, live longer. Your stamina bar is near empty so please dont come with the: "I wasnt sprinting" remark.

    Wound infection

    The rags you Spawn with should be worn and or disinfected at the minimum. Worn is fine.... Also make sure to cut up clothes at worn stage whenever you can. (Unless more then 6/12)

    Cholera/Influenza (returning player)

    Common cold perhaps? Vitamins needed. Hit by An infected infected perhaps? Tetra needed.

    Heavy swing is broken.

    Its only logical if they see you whilst Investigating the sound. Not when they beeline straight at you even tho you were out of sight.

    Heavy swing is broken.

    Hold Shift and click left mouse

    Heavy swing is broken.

    I still dont get why the infected pathing hasnt been properly adjusted. @Kyiara Last night a Guy shot An infected with a loud gun inside the police station. I was crouched behind a container at approx 100 yards. Infected got alerted to that shot and all came straight for me.... You know the one crouching and using stealth.... This gives An advantage to the run and gun pew pew players once more.

    Tips for returning player?

    Every item you wear has insulation, Just make sure you choose the best ones to wear. Its also based on tradeoff, meaning a helmet is Nice for protection but bad for insulation.

    Disgusting 2

    The bow should be in cause; A it was so in the beginning, B its a survival tool, C its a very common zombie/infected killing tool (if you look at tv) 🙂 D caters to the guys who want to play the Woodland type and dont want to get guns in towns/military or even go near them E multiple things in game are too difficult for the average joe to do (handdrill Comes to mind) so why not crafting a bow? F chicken huts can have its use put back in G the bow we had was spot on. Arrows meant a lot of lost inventory space, you were vulnerable searching for feathers and the range was less then 50 yrds
  17. Goes on 5 player pop server and then complaining about not meeting a soul....
  18. If you dont mind modded you can still find a server to your liking. +++Loot, traders, PVP zones, helicopters there is enough to pick from. You should try namalsk for a bit. The cold is a mf but loot cycles fast and by picking up and dumping trash you can even manipulate it yourself
  19. Yeah the knife can be a thing. Your best bet is indeed a stone knife. Which, as said before, is most likely to be found on dirt roads. Backtracking seems to help Spawn Stones. For the hook dont forget to search the small boats and dont skip looking inside boonie hats. They can contain hooks aswell. The removal of the bow is ludicrous in a survival game. One of my most missed items and highly needed especially now. Yeah the grind is there a bit its true, but it is mostly in the beginning, which i think is a rather good thing. No more beelining the Nwaf or other high loot locations. But hey that's Just my opinion i dont play it for the PVP.

    Rostow map

    Whats the general opinion on the Rostow map? Never knew it existed untill a mate told me today. Just tried it a bit. Pops very low which surprises me a bit. Most servers are modded like crazy....
  21. Just catch a couple of fishes or Hunt some game. It Will keep you Fed much longer.
  22. McWendy

    Basebuilding still a cruel joke

    Or kill the one who killed you with one of your many alts. So lame. People totally go beyond the point of the game.... Console player right,? Why they allowed multiple chars on that is beyond me.

    DayZ Wipe Announcement 1.13

    They allready said they would wipe every 3/4 months. Guess you guys should Read up more... No point going for persistence other then short life span. Investing in huge bases is a waste of time. Best treat it like the PVP lifespan they have pictured out.
  24. They got underground working in Namalsk. So why not in chernarus...
