    Why i can't play dayz

    Wrong side of the highway, lol. The other day I did notice my dish looked cocked like it got hit by a branch in a windstorm just waiting to pay my ridiculous bill down a bit before I call them to come out and look at it, I pay $170 a month for this shit. I play at 600+ ping most days or under 200 on my cell but the brutally inefficient netcode right now eats my 2gig of cell data in 20 hours, considering I play 100hrs a month that sucks.

    Can't Direct-Chat While Sprinting

    Awesome explanation, I bought a gaming keyboard a year or so ago just for the shape, feel and size but had noticed after the fact I could hold down more keys than the cheapos before it. Turns out my steelseries Apex is a 6kro.

    Why i can't play dayz

    Holy first world problems... If someone in my house is watching netfix I play with a 4 digit ping.

    How it's made

    And when are they going to add a tactical wheelbarrow?

    Schadenfreude Island

    So was cold not in the game when the swim was done successfully? I could see how a group effort hoarding heat packs and the magic barrels on exp could make it easy to get there and back.

    What is it that drives you to play DayZ a lot?

    I actually really like the hours or even days of nothing, then when it does it's so real. Once stealth worked junior and I were working down the coast uncontested by the ai then we had an "interaction" gone bad. We killed the guy but the adrenaline kept going well after. Looking forward to more and better zombies when junior and I stopped playing stable we could just use stealth and coordination to clear a town and loot it without fear.
  7. Trees respaw on reset still. I managed to get a drybah stuck in an already cut down tree at one point and didn't want to wait for a reset. In 1pp if you crawl under something you can grab it transitioning back to crouch. The respawnning trees can be handyvfor stashing stuff if you cut a bush down and drop an improvised backpack on where the bush was it'll be well hidden and not show up in the vicinity tab once the bush respawns.

    Resenting DayZ

    Junior had it yesterday and it bit me today. Am I to assume you need to shoulder your long gun before entering a truck? Pretty sure I didn't with my m70 yesterday but I lost my blaze presumably where I entered today's truck.
  9. Renderer, to get some load off my older than Jesus CPU and on to my less old GPU hopefully. Helicopters so I can dust off my Sidewinder and put my 180° FOV WSG set up to good use. I'd like to see if my thousands of hours on MSFS are transferable.

    Make explosive arrows with ammo

    Ha, that reminds me of stupid stuff we did as kids growing up in the country. My dad was good about keeping the guns and ammo locked up but for whatever lapse of judgment we had access to the reloading presses and supplies. I'm not sure how many of you have see those toy called "buzz bombs" or something like a dart that took a paper strip cap gun cap. You would throw them up at an angle and when they hit the ground they go bang setting off the cap. I had the brilliant Idea one day to load some 12ga blanks, tape a wooden dowel slice with a nail up the middle as a firing pin over the primer, and some flagging tape or whatever as a stabilizing tail on the business end to get them to land pointing up when lobbed. Noise was made, fun was had, and strangely enough, 3 camo clad young boys grew up keeping all 30 fingers and 6 eyes intact.

    Loot; A highly debated topic.

    Stand on the beach looking down it with the water directly to you left, turn 90° to the right so the water is at your back, travel in that direction and you'll find the loot that people starved to death not looking. They're changing the loot distribution to free you from the monotonous coast rat lifestyle so you can enjoy the other 190sq/km of the map.

    A little idea

    Junior and I are playing on exp right now but yes, we we're having a much better time on private servers and 1pp only servers. I really like 1pp and play exclusively in 1pp except for in trucks damn are they hard to back up in 1pp without working mirrors.

    Resenting DayZ

    When .55 first came out they were asking the broken ones to be reported in the bug tracker so they could be checked. I'd assume they're still interested to help figure out why it's happening. I play on an ancient desktop and my CPU will start to bog anywhere near a lootbomb, the newer laptop junior plays on isn't as sensitive until he gets closer.

    A little idea

    I completely agree with some limitations as to where you can log in and log out, been killed more times than anything by people logging in and out of the same high value area hopping servers. Your English is as good or better than at least half the native speakers/typists.

    QoL Changes for Apple/Berry Foraging

    tl;dr... What's a nutsack tree?

    Resenting DayZ

    I resent my mother at times for babying me as her first born, DayZ is frustrating at times. I don't think resent means what you think it means.

    What is the final goal of this game?

    Get your stats in check, get geared, fall off a ladder, repeat.
  18. I can get behind that, I drag my left heel and wear out my boots funny from shit I did 20 years ago. That never goes away but, I don't die when I get in fight from torso hits eons ago.
  19. I partially agree with that but I don't see dying from my next motorbike whipeout based on cumulative bonks and thumps. My ankles sure sprain easy if I don't wear at at least mid top boots though, I do suppose my fractured vertebrae in my neck could be a one hit kill given the right circumstances. And no one ever said it didn't exist just that it was a wip/some other acronym I'm not familiar with and now apparently being finished, fixed in the next patch... yeah.

    It's the middle of the week, again

    Massivly unplayable

    "It's not fair!" You guy sound like my wife's welfare bum ex husband complaining about how we work our assess of and go on three week vacations and he doesn't get a break from smoking dope and playing ps4 handed to him. If the game is too much work just give up, it's the cool thing to do these days.
  22. Like the guy who stood in the middle of the street looking at me for about 10 seconds not responding before he raised his shotgun and fired all six and missed as I closed the 50 foot gap serpentine style with my fire axe? I'm passive/neutral but I can see why the have ping kick on allot of servers. My son and I have seen some funny stuff convoying with 2 trucks and 1000+ pings when the weather is shitty.
  23. I live in rural Canada on satellite internet and have a ping over 600ms. I play the PVE portion of the game just fine and as far as pvp I don't go looking for trouble but all but 1 of the hand full of guys who've attacked me that weren't a kos snipe or conned me lost.

    Looting broken?

    As far as anything I've seen or read when you pick something up something else spawns at a spawnpoint withing 1km. It was really noticeable playing with my son a few times in loot puke areas. I was parking the truck the other day while he started looting the prison building and he was telling me about the Makarov mag he was picking up, as he said it I saw a bear trap spawn in the outside alcove at the end of the building.

    Why change the Mosin

    Where? I always zoom those types of pics to see if anyone is naked in the reflections.
