Foot Falcon..pedal to the metal all the way is a max of 40 minutes. I am surprised everytime i head up to the field that i am not stuck in the middle of a marathon group, it can be a lonely journey.

Funniest Moments On DayZ, GO!
Hetstaine replied to tysonbishop's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Shooting at a zed that was coming into the doorway of a barn i was checking out, i fired four at it..the last shot hit my mate in the face. He had run around to directly behind it. Long run for him from the beach back. My mate getting revenge and plugging me in the leg with the mak when we were in the middle of nowhere.Snap broken legs.With no bloodpacks, meat, food or morhine.After he had finished laughing and i told him my legs were broken he said ...yeh.. i didnt really think it through did i. Doing front wheel downhill wheelies on the bicycle. Having a flare throwing competition off the top of the mountain/hill near Balota. It was close..we called it a tie. Telling my lady that the Boars bite.. watching her creeping in trying to get close with the hatchet to kill one. Watching people run around like mad with flares/ chemsticks in their hand with a train of Zeds..always makes me laugh. Watching people crawl across big open fields in the middle of fuckbutt nowhere, i want to shoot them out of sympathy, but it is amusing. Watching a three car car chase in the same middle of buttfuck nowhere, ten minutes later nearly getting run over by a truck then being chased into the forest by some freako on a trailbike whilst his maniacal laughter came across direct. -
Did anyone else pronounce it as Day-Zee at first?

Why do some people walk slow in DayZ?
Hetstaine replied to down167's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
yeh i am thinking they are in boss run mode and he is in normal run. -
I dont mind the akm, it is probably my most used gun in the game besides the m1911, i do prefer the Kobra sight plus it is quieter than the akm :)

Do you think there should be more vehicles?
Hetstaine replied to Kiro (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
No more. It is good they are rare or it would just turn into gta- zombie edition. -
Yeah i have had to do this a few times with the packs. Also i came across the shops at Zeleno with another char a while back, was watching a trio of guys loot camp it to buggery. They left with whatever it was they must have been looking for , i am guessing matches as that was the only item i could not find in the ninety two million items dumped outside. Took me forever to pick up an Alice pack they left there as it was surrounded by four thousand flares a million watches and untold cans of beans, pepsi and mak mags. Made me wonder if somone in turn came along, saw me trying to get that Alice pack and was thinking..jeheebuz, that dude must have been loot camping that shop all night. Seriously..it looked like a B double had just upended its whole load along the street outside of the shop, the things you see.

Thanks chaps, carrying on ever forward. Heading back into Berezino to try my luck again , need a backpack again. I still have the GPS to play with and the AK74S so i count the raid as well worthwhile. WoRtEx ..i guess that was divorce then eh.. the blindside type :)..women. I will try that next time SystemiK , i generally always drop the pack as i am paranoid about one of them swallowing gear in the changeover.
-
Definitely do not want more vehicles..sometimes it is like peak hour traffic as it is :D I watched a three car chase the other night, nearly got run over by a truck then was chased ny a motorbike with some crazy dude laughing at me over direct. No more vehicles. Map size is too small once you know it, i am too paranoid to place a tent anywhere. Give us another 500 miles to play with please. I am fine with the distances, i just miss my cryo invisibilty stealth mode ;) Getting shot by a random sniper after doing the run up north is what makes you keep on edge. Zeds are too easy, that i agree with. I dont wanna see your ass.

FIRE THE BEAN ARTILLERY (Lets keep the thread going with some DayZ lol pics!)
Hetstaine replied to tysonbishop's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Charvet, this forum is worse than Cherno as i'm sure you are aware, too many negative keyboard warriors. but with your lighthearted thread you provoked a Goodies classic so it was well worth while :D Michaelvoodoo your a damn champion and made my day :thumbsup: Critical, thats from one of the guys in the Dayz gallery forum..check the Dayz meme thread. Once you sift past all of the unoriginal crap memes that is. -
In the future, electro and churno are history!
Hetstaine replied to moofactory's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I like the current map style , it has a fair bit of variety but yes , huge mountain ranges and big cities that make Cherno look like a suburb would be awesome. Long as he doesnt pick a desert map ;) -
he...he mentioned Green Mountain !

You only need one box of matches , the other is just wasting space :)

Spawn points for boxes of matches? Help!
Hetstaine replied to MaskedBaboon's topic in New Player Discussion
Nice work Scavenger :) -
Sounds like you need to learn how your gear and toolbelt works :) Say you have your flashlight equipped - in hand, if you find a handgun, Mak, M1911, Revolver , before you pick up the handgun, open your gear , right click on your flashlight and select the option add to toolbelt, this will move it onto your toolbelt and out of your hand, then you can pick up the handgun without losing your flashlight. If you can get hold of a g17 handgun it has a built in flashlight (L), possibly your dream weapon. Check the beginners guide here for a bit of help with how to use your inventory/item changing and how to use your backpack http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=A_Beginners_Guide#Guns.2C_Gear_and_Inventory All buildings that you can see into the windows are enterable, barns are a good bet for at least a hatchet and sometimes a winchester..leave the double barrell shotgun, its more pain than it is worth.BOOM! six more zeds coming at you and you have to reload the stinking thing and you only have two more rounds that you found , i would rather have a dried out sunflower stalk with a bee on it. The hatchet can be a problem until you get your inventory sussed out properly as it takes the primary slot. If you pick up a primary weapon like a Winchester/Lee enfield/AKM/AK74 etc you will lose the hatchet... if it is in hand (your primary slot)..same rule applies, open your gear, right click on the hatchet option add to toolbelt, then pickup the primary. As a weapon though the hatchet is wicked, quiet and deadly. It will not notify the town of your presence unlike the shottie which will have people at the top of the map looking up and wondering if it is going to rain. A lot of the smaller village like places are hardly worth the risk going into unless your desperate :) You really only need the mak and a winnie or lee enfield (the dinner bell) to start heading inland as you can gun up at several inland places, deer stands, heli crashes or some of the military sites like Stary the airfields or Berezino military camp. The winnie is not a long distance gun but it is a good one shot zed killer, awesome in towns for close in stuff. The lee enfield is good for decent medium range shooting but as loud as fuck , hence the dinner bell tag. The winnie or Lee enfield and mak are common ammo spawns in barns and pretty much every loot spot, you are rarely desperate for ammo for them so its a good starter combo. Any of the bigger towns are higher risk areas, Cherno, Elektro, Berezino, lots of spawning on the coast so heaps of fresh meat for people to pile up in the streets. The other hotspots are anywhere where there is military grade loot, all of the airfields, military camps and heli crashes. Thats where you will find the best weapons thus they are the most dangerous places to gain a hole in the forehead. Guns guns guns! Everyone wants the big gear :) You can make a good go of it though with minimal gear, just make sure you have some basics, morphine (nothing like getting broken legs 2 hours crawl time from the nearest hospital) , a couple of cans of food, matches, hatchet, knife, water bottle your trusty mak and a primary. Everything else after that is a luxury.

Spawn points for boxes of matches? Help!
Hetstaine replied to MaskedBaboon's topic in New Player Discussion
Wonder if they made it... I just left the Berezino shops, 3 packs of matches. Sounds like they are learning a lesson though, never travel inland without bloodpacks :) If you are a fresh spawn and travelling with a mate, hit the hospital first. Bloodpacks and Morphine dudes. Good luck. -
Damn loop.
-
Yes you did..im stuck. Someone respawn me please.

Anyone in Cherno? The Good Old Dayz.
Hetstaine replied to DemonGroover's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yep , the chat , like jayjarr said..it was good company while heading inland, some of the conversation was piss funny :D -
I think your elongated neck is why you are getting shot, no-one likes freaks...even in a zombie apocalypse. use your three rounds wisely ..oh and thanks for the laugh :D
-
Boars in the woods is the best bet if you are desperate, you can generally sit back at a distance and zoom in looking around the forested areas and spot the boars, they stand out pretty well and once you have seen a few you see the buggers everywhere :) I was at the NE airfield last night and as we headed down to the hangars it was like someone released Farmer Joes stock..goats and cows invaded the strip and i thought it was a glitch and they were replacing the zeds, four goats and two cows in an area the size of a hangar. Tripped me out a bit and i was crouching around them in case they attacked :)

Playing with two players under the same connection
Hetstaine replied to bigtbone's topic in New Player Discussion
As long as you have a spare ethernet cable to plug in to the second pc you will be fine. Plug it into the router and it should automatically pick up the connection, sometimes you may have to diagnose the internet connection for it to pick up (win7) , basically its a plug and play. -
Its not right because it is not meant to be there. It was dropped / spawned by a hacker therefore it is not a legit weapon. Any kills you get with it are also not a legit kill :) Does not matter if it is any better or worse than any of the in game guns.

What percentage of players you meet/engage Alt+F4?
Hetstaine replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I have only seen 1 so far..but i never shoot first. I was watching one guy sneak up on two , he shot and missed then the two turned and started shooting..the loner dc'd instantly.
