Heartbeat doesn't necessarily mean bandit?
Sixteen18 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You keep your heartbeat once you get it even if you die, but not the bandit status. -
So a Sniper killed me when I had NV Goggles...
Sixteen18 replied to Buroli's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Love it. Stuff like this makes me believe in karma. (You deserved it) Well I think Karma only keeps me from killing people at night. In 5 weeks I played I've had NVGs 3 times and my score is something like this: Murders without NVG: ~120 Murders with NVG: 2 -
How many survivors did you killed
Sixteen18 replied to Commander D's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Around 120 total, had 41 on character that died a few days ago. -
So a Sniper killed me when I had NV Goggles...
Sixteen18 replied to Buroli's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Like many people I find that NVG goggles can make the game more annoying than fun for you. When I got my first pair I decided to go gank people in cherno and electro at night. On a full server with some absurdly horrible luck I did not run into a single person in Cherno, making me paranoid that I had people following me. So I headed to electro from fire station side. Before I get to city limits I hear DMR firing and bullets hitting next to me, luckily I was able to get inside the fire station and camp it for like an hour, no one showed up. The next day I lost all my gear to Debug zone error... -
Haven't been able to find any info on whether Little Bird is in the mod, spotted it in Cherno today. Some guy got into it and my friend sniped him out.

sneaking from zombies obsolete?
Sixteen18 replied to fasthandz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Aggroing zombies is as good of a way to get yourself killed as shooting them. Making yourself a really easy target for other players. -
Similar happened to me for the first time recently. I was covering my friends while they were sniping Cherno from a Western hill. They shot a guy that was heading towards us and he instantly DCed. A few minutes later I see him appear in front of me and run straight at one of the snipers, luckily I unloaded M249 on him before he could fire.

I kill people only to read the QQ on forums.

What does everyone think of this weapon for PVP? I never bothered to really try it, but found one with 1000 rounds on a chopper yesterday and picked it up. So far I like it in close and medium range, it is surprisingly accurate and doesn't have the recoil that LMGs usually do in FPS. Damage seems to be at least as good as M4, maybe even better. Also blows away zombie hordes that come better than any assault rifle.

Battleye bypassed. Rocket burned out. The end of DayZ?
Sixteen18 replied to jafit's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
And the world is ending tomorrow. The game is in alpha and ARMA never had a great anti-hacker system in place because it wasn't a problem before DayZ, whoever wrote that needs to calm down and get back on medication. Unless rocket makes an announcement that he is rage quitting this is meaningless speculation. -
Forgot to add that we heard explosions similar to jet bombs on this server as well. It was Dallas 41.

dear bandits, could you explain me something ?

The few I found were 1 seat, I don't know if there are different versions.

Only reliable way to get MP5SD ammo is checking all the airfield areas (Firestation, 2 Barracks, Control Tower, 7 Hangars). They have a small chance to spawn in Deer stands and Military tents, but those areas are not good risk-reward ratio. You can also get lucky with an ammo box at a chopper that will have 10 magazines.

Why I generally avoid servers at night...
Sixteen18 replied to Kashus's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I wanted to go PKing with NVGs a few days ago and couldn't find a single night server that had more than 15 people. I don't even bother playing at night anymore even though I have NVGs, servers are just too dead. -
DCing from snipers, snipers complaining.
Sixteen18 replied to Slyguy65's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, as soon as there are no hackers or random DCs in the game. MMOs that use this type of timer are very reliable on keeping you from dying to what you are not supposed to, DayZ at this time does not. -
Share servers with SIDECHAT enabled
Sixteen18 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I love side chat to listen to people complain about our kill squad in Cherno. -
Hacker taking control of players?
Sixteen18 replied to darklynx's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I doubt it, but I am no expert on how coding works. I've seen lots of hackers in many games, but never heard of anything like this. -
I still have yet to die at NW Airfield and I've probably looted it close to 100 times by now, mostly on full servers. I always have people watching my back though, there are too many places for one person to check to remain relatively safe. Unlike the cities it is easy to find campers inside buildings.

how many people have you brought/introduce to dayz?
Sixteen18 replied to BaitedHook's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Zero. Unfortunately other than the people that got me into the game my friends would QQ about this gameplay too much. -
So, exactly how does the "Heartbeat Bandit" system work?

dear bandits, could you explain me something ?
Sixteen18 replied to Khattr's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I usually don't loot people because I don't really need anything from them. Also when killing in high traffic areas going to a corpse is too dangerous, even if it's for a few seconds. -
So are there now gangs of armed Bandits hunting defenseless Survivors?
Sixteen18 replied to Never's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Camping beach gets boring fast, but lately I've had fun setting up a sniper point on the western side of Cherno with my group. It seems like every minute someone runs by through the big open field, it's like the best target practice ever. -
Unluckiest Thing That Happened To You?
Sixteen18 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Everything was pretty good until LA4 server restart today. I had NVGs, M4SD and M9SD with lots of ammo, camo, and pretty much stocked on everything. I log back in and I am in debug zone, I start running in a random direction and die from nothing. -
Is M9SD Stealth kills of 2 players in ghillies under fir trees likely a hack?
Sixteen18 replied to nepereta's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Around electro sound gets canceled out by wind and ocean. It's possible that you've been killed by a hacker, but unfortunately there isn't much of a way to tell unless they are using blatant hacks like teleporting and explosions. I've been shot in positions that don't make much sense in arma plenty of times, like getting sniped in the middle of a random forest on a server with 3 people.
