lol..ive been shot plenty of times after getting all geared up..and i'm still a good guy. It just teaches you to be more sneaky :) Dont let them get you down..there are plenty of good guys out there.

Cool stuff :) There is enough exceptions to make the game still very playable for me, the whole shoot on site stuff gets boring pretty quickly. Especially for newbies i imagine. The first friendly guy i met on Dayz was a guy called Griff or something similar. He bumped into me near the firestation at Elektro, told me he knew where a weapon was and lead me too a Winchester with some ammo. We ended up covering each other up to the powerplant where he said had to log off. Was good finally finding someone who didnt pop a cap in me within the first split second. Best one was a guy i met at the NW airfield .Wickenden was his name, i had spent ages getting up there and was about 5000 blood when we bumped into each other in the main hangars, both of us did not shoot on sight..just hid at either side of the hangar.. he asked if i had any spare AKM ammo , i didnt have any but i dropped a bloodpack so he could fix me, which he did, then i repayed the favour by topping him up with my last bloodpack. We bid each other good luck and journeyed on. Since then i have managed to help a few guys while they have crept around and armed up and been rewarded with no bullets to the face. Oh yeh except for the guy who hacked me with an axe from behind while i was making sure he could get across a street to the Cherno apartments..i guess my ak74 and Alice pack was just too tempting for him to have to work to get his own. Such is Dayz life...but the good ones out there keep you going :)

I read through the voice comm thread in helpful threads but still could not find out why the below.. me and a mate were on BRA1 last night and trying to use direct comm (text) when standing side by side . We could not see each others chat at all, 1.7.1.5 beta 94209- vet server. We have tried it unsuccessfully with direct comm (text only) with other servers using 93965 and 94364 as well. Obviously i can see my chat and he can see his but that is all. We were all within a metre of each other with no results. Are we missing something basic here or is it still bugged ? From the voice comm thread .. Direct communication - Those who are near you hear voice coming from your character. Character's mouth moves when you talk. Voice fades over distance and cuts off at 80 meters. Text range is 20 meters (1.60), 40 meters with beta (since build 93586), cheers for any help.

Quick question, me and a mate were on BRA1 tonight and trying to use direct comm (text) when standing side by side . We could not see each others chat at all, 1.7.1.5 beta 94209- vet server. We have tried it unsuccessfully with direct comm (text only) with 93965 and 94364 as well. Obviously i can see my chat and the others can see their own but that is all. We were all within a metre of each other with no results. Are we missing something basic here ? cheers

Cheers for the post System, makes sense..its like the mostly retarded AI in flight sims..even the dcs ones, and generally for the same reasons. Hoping they find a way around.the limitations in the future.

They were still banned in the first place which is a breach of server rules, the ban was long enough for them to safely relocate their admin camp, this is a clear abuse of admin power, they need to have their server status revoked surely. This. Fuckn pussies

Never fix the zeds coming through walls ? I would pretty much call that a game breaker right there. It is the biggest bug that needs to be fixed imo [/align] Do you have a link to Rockets post ? i would be interested in reading it , tia if you do.

Haven't seen the old girl for ages now..on the upside i am finding the M14 a lot more :)

Best comeback ever :D

55. Finding Baked Beans makes you grin like a stupid school girl. 56. Marathon runners got nothing on Chernarus survivors 57. There are more guns in Chernarus than matches or toolkits. 58. The Chernarus population consisted of only middle aged men. 59. Bckpack straps are water soluble 60. Russians only drink Jack Daniels. Vodka is a myth !

Smoke grenade bug. Had it happen at Elektro last night and wiped out a building i was in near the hospital. Have never seen it happen with flares yet though.

Fucking QQ .. Contrary to popular belief, QQ is not a set of crying eyes. It actually originated with the advent of Warcraft II. On battlenet, you could press ALT+Q+Q to immediately exit the match and program. Thus the term "QQ" was to tell people to just quit because they are unskilled. The term later developed and lost it's origin and is usually mistaken as crying eyes. In contemporary gamer culture, QQ has become the mainstream emoticon for crying eyes, though it is still often used in it's traditional sense.

..ever.

I have always called the Zeds my 'crew' . I have them with me in large numbers a lot and like to check my six to see how many of my crew i have with me at any one time. My crew digs me.

i have a mate trapped at NW airfield for two days now at 1400 blood. I have made it twice to just north of Kabanino, with bloodbags and morphine for him, and been sniped 5 minutes short of rescuing him. Never been killed by a door yet.and never a ladder glitch either ! / crosses fingers.

hit F until your gun mag quantity appears in the top left :) F cycles through stuff in your inventory that you can throw, Flares, chemlights, empty cans and bottles.

that vid posted above is why i will not play on servers with 3dp on. Just crap.

Go forth and do it..fkn retards and their wire and tank traps.

No tent action here. 1.7.1.5 beta 93965. Would not place anywhere.Gave up after an hour or so of trying to find a location. Flat field, airfield, street , inside building etc. Ten minutes after i gave up i found one placed inside of the church in Elektro , half in and half out. Gah :s

1.7.1.5..beta 93965. Any server , does not matter.Any building. Zeds come through or attack through walls, doors, stairs etc. They also seem to have at least a ten foot reach a lot of the time. Saw one Zed at Balota run at me..then past me then straight through the hangar wall closest to the Tower, for all i know he is still running ! I go with one of the previous posters tatctics..run then back up and shoot. The buildings offer no safety due the fact it seems they are not physically there for the Zeds.

Yep. Threw a green smoke nade by accident in the building beside the hospital in Elektro. Blew the walls out and could see outside but could not get outside. The rubble obstructed one half of the building and i could not exit where the rubble was shown. That was last night 1.7.1.5 , latest beta.

Good luck to you in your endeavour sir :)
