Good shootin -
Please can you help me understand a few things
ASTINvlogs replied to Druringtons's topic in New Player Discussion
Shift/Tab Google insert ' Day Z map ' into the search bar click the first non add Everything you need bro. Just leave that menu open while you're playing and when you need your map just shift tab. It'll be there. I find it best to actually track my progression as I'm moving because you can get lost pretty quick. Nowadays I don't need it but not to long ago it was a god send. -
My thoughts exactly. They have so much stuff that a few magazines coming up missing every once and a while could just be coughed up as " Day Z "

Gearing up is the best part of this game
ASTINvlogs replied to MoOnKat's topic in General Discussion
Oh I know right. I LOVE! running into geared players that aren't afraid of combat. That's even more of a rush than killing hobos IG OMG I haven't seen any actual combat till we ( buddy and I ) got jumped by two guys with M4's around one of the crashsites. Hit me in the head as I was in the passenger seat knocked me out. I woke up to my buddy plowing through the woods in the truck. Bastard ruined my helmet but it saved my life so. Was worth it. I have to say the only time that I've ever just flat out broke contact from an enemy. Those guys scared the shit outa me lol. Was also browsing facebook/youtube while my bud was looking around and doing the same. Completely caught with pants down on that one. -
Go to a lootspolsion server and look @ the NW airfield barracks by the control tower. Also a lot of PSO scopes there.

Gearing up is the best part of this game
ASTINvlogs replied to MoOnKat's topic in General Discussion
No way. Wasting countless hours behind a keyboard just to dress. No thanks. I want a rush. All the time. I can't be outside doing fun things 24/7 so when I'm inside I play games. The games need to inspire a rush. Dayz PVP combat does that. Gearing up isn't fun. Wasting people that enjoy gearing up is. -
sighs* Really? That in love with it huh? You know who I'm talking about too. Not you OP ( to OP " lol no " this game has potential but that is all. This game is nowhere near awesome. It's good, but not great. When they finally get to fixing simple issues then we'll talk. To release update after update without fixing basics is blasphemy " it's alpha it's alpha " yeah well it's been alpha since Arma II and were well into Arma III now. Fix what's broke )

Lol I use my thermals. What I mean by that is a quick adjustment on the brightness/gamma and boom. Thermals. Any purist that says it's cheap/lame/cheating Well, you play your way and I'll play mine. Handicapping yourself for no reason is stupid. Thad be like going out on mission and purposely leaving the batteries for your NODs. If you have it. Use it.

Should it be encourged,as an optional but rewarding playstyle without being forced upon players? Yes. Obvious rewards for teamwork with equally obvious penalties. Nothing is impossible alone but life is easier with a battle buddy. Would you rather have DayZ as a survival game heavily driven by teamwork mechanics? Not " driven " by tw mechanics but the benifits be obvious and realistic. Should the player be able to perform almost everything on his own,without the need of player cooperation? Yes I'm listed as a " pvper " my entire goal in a character is to get geared and hunt other players. Not Bambi. There's no threat in a Bambi. Armed preferably in a group and somewhat intelligent based on their actions are the ones we engage. Usually before an ambush we gear specifically for it. Believe it or not this mandatory persistence on has actually made pvp easier. We're always gear hunting so it just gets dropped off at base. If one of us goes down we server hop back to the moderately safe zone ( my server ) then pick up, regear, back in the fight. Slowed me down only slightly for the first few days.

Should i pick full ghillie suit or just ghillie suit parts?
ASTINvlogs replied to IStreak's topic in New Player Discussion
It's more cost effective and efficient to go full IMO -
IEDs Remote det. Booby traps trip flares, shotgun rigs, Belt fed, I want something belt fed even if I have to pick up and individually load each link. I want belt fed machine guns with bipeds that actually work. Ohh working bipods that sounds nice. You know so I can stabilize my shot as the zombie is no clipping through the door Oooo how bout zombies that don't no clip

ASTINvlogs replied to IStreak's topic in New Player Discussion
Go full retard. It's your best option, if you have a Smersh vest the ass pack will hang off the bottom of the suit. -
Can developers please quick fix or change the old loot system back
ASTINvlogs replied to smoman's topic in New Player Discussion
Lol he has two post. Both in this thread. He specifically joined this former to complain about the loot system. Rofl -
I use them for target practice all the time. Just because why not? They have nothing to lose so who cares only a click away from being a brand new person. Not a big deal IMO
-
Hmmm, no I wouldn't feed my offspring to his offspring but I would feed his offspring to mine under the cover of " beef " or " deer " Well, that's kinda fucked lol probably wouldn't actually do that.

Just curious of what the community thinks a " Bandit " is. I attempted to create a poll but alas. It didn't work. SO, is it the player who shoots on sight. Tortures and cons you. Kills you period Bambi. I have my own reasons for slaying players. Just want to know what most here think a bandit is and where I fall into the bandit spectrum lol Mods, I searched didn't find much on a definition for this question. Move accordingly. RvR

I don't hunt Bambi. I hunt something that can defend itself. Well, let me check myself. Sometimes I hunt Bambi but that's not hunting. That's when I need to brush up on my moving target skills. The hunting I do is for players that are armed with something that goes bang. If I see someone with only an axe, usually I'm pretty generous. Also if someone does kill me, they get stacks of chow cause I carry food all over the place a lot of it.

Rabbit? I don't even hunt deer players are my game

This thread is retarded. I just struggled to get into a max 50 server and another max 40 server. Had to wait about 10 minutes of clicking restart till I finally got in.

Are you a group or lone wolf or both? I run with a group during the late hours but have zero problems with engaging multiple threats bms Are in a clan or are you free agent with just some fiends? Free agent Do you play to survive as long as possible or does it even matter? As long as possible is my goal but I don't " fear " starting a new character. Do you pvp to survive or is something you do just for pure thrills or both? I hunt Do you have any rules of engagement? Or do treat case by case..or do you just hate everyone? Case by case Have you dabled in RPing? No Are you a hero or bandit? Or do you find those terms bs? Bs Were do gravitate urban areas or prefer being in the woods? Both Do you focus on survivalist type stuff or do you just play to pvp. Survivalist What is idea of what makes a good dayz player? Common sense Are you a minimalist or are you a hoarder? Hoarder Do you pvp or just avoid it? I tend to search for a fight even if it's not mine to begin with. Do you just stay in one area or do you like to explore the map? All of the map is my playground What do you define as being successful in game? Live to fight anther day .
