    PVP zones

    I'm thirsty as fuck for some PVP but almost everywhere my squad goes is empty,even on high pops. Myshkino, empty. Zelenogorsk,empty. Not interested in Cherno,we've been to that city enough. So where should we look for PVP?

    Loaded a hostile freshie with 20 scorpion rounds, didn't die. He axed me and I died. Shoot a guy twice with CR carbine, doesn't die. Get hit with stick to head, unconscious and dead. Shot a guy with Izh rifle in head at point blank, only go unconscious. Shot once with AK, die.

    Agree with Rags' point about killing being the only fun thing in DayZ right now. Nothing is more satisfying than shooting a bandit and watching his lifeless body drop. Given how fucked up the loot economy is at the moment (inbalanced rarity of loot, buildings spawning one type of loot[tents always have 2-6 SKS in them, or 2-6 AKs, never both] etc etc), I personally have had the most fun looting the Cherno police station, getting a glock with a couple of mags and fighting in Cherno. There's literally nothing to do in DayZ OTHER THAN pvp. The zombies add nothing to the game except frustration because they are overpowered as fuck (they run, glitch, lag, take too long to kill) and only spawn in specific locations. Zombies aren't a real threat. Food isn't a problem either, go into any house on a low pop and you're almost guaranteed to find a can of beans. You can explore the map and go to military bases if you want but you're only wasting your time. Why go all the way up north and spend hours looting for AK ammo and fancy heli-crash guns when you could easily just go into a few houses, get a mosin and fight just the same? I don't see the incentive to loot up if I can just die in 2 minutes after searching for hours for stupidly rare SVDs and M4s. While I hate people who kill innocent fresh spawns for no reason, I see no problem with KOS bandits. They're annoying as fuck, yes, and they're assholes but that doesn't mean KoS is necessarily a bad thing. Especially given that PVP is the most fun you can get out of DayZ right now.

    I dont like the heli crashsite system and think it's flawed

    Completely agree with Rags. In .59, helicopter crashes spawn basically the same thing as the tents at NWAF. I've checked 20+ heli crashes and I typically find boots and jackets, and I've found one UMP which was hardly worth the time. Never found an SVD, VSS, FAL or AUG. Why would I go hunting for hours on end for helicopters crashes if I can just go to myshkino, get some combat gear and an SKS within minutes and fight people? What's the damn point of searching heli crashes? It takes 10 hours of searching to get anything useful out of helis, and then you get put down in one shot by some freshie with a magnum 10 minutes later. If you want me to go search helicopter crashes and boat crashes then please, devs, please stop being so stingy with the damn loot.

    Have we forgotten our roots?

    I couldn't give a toss what they add to DayZ so long as they optimise the game and get the core mechanics working by the end of 2016.

    I have found another worn black M65 jacket. Contact me ASAP if you want to trade.

    What's unbalanced is how we were knocked out by a STICK in one hit.

    0.59 is a big step up from previous updates. I'm rather happy with it. However, the game is still horribly unbalanced and it bothers me how stupidly and unrealistically rare weapons/ammo have become. Firstly, on the matter of balance. Me and my friend were scouting Cherno from a forest, fully geared with full health and blood. Suddenly, some freshie with an ashwood stick comes up and knocks us out with one hit each. Even worse- when I saw my friend die, I tried pulling out my glock but the broken animation system made my character stand completely still whilst doing so. I'm being attacked? Let me just stand completely in place while I slowly pull out a weapon! I know the animation system is being completely revamped so I can let that slide but I can't believe that a mere stick can do so much damage. Also, I understand that the game is a zombie apocalypse so ammo is harder to find, but the loot system is still very unbalanced and unrealistic. Basic hunting rifle ammo is rarer than 5.56 rounds and SVD ammo. I hope this isn't intentional because I know that CLE still needs work. However,what bothers me the most about .59 is the helicopter crashes. They are quite literally the most pointless existences at the moment. Why would anyone have the incentive to go looking for hours for a helicopter crash when they almost always spawn nothing that you wouldn't find at normal military bases? I've looked through many helicopter crashes and I've only found things like boots, jackets and weapons I'd find at NWAF or Myshkino. Wouldn't you realistically expect to find a couple M4s on a helicopter crash? What's the point in spending hours looting helicopter crashes when I can easily just grab an AKM and loot the tons upon tons of AKM ammo that is currently spawning? The most I've found at a helicopter crash in .59 is one stanag mag. ONE. MAG. I know that the game is under progress. However, until CLE is developed upon further, I will stick to doing a few quick coastal loot runs and then fighting with whatever flimsy gun I can find.

    where are netting?

    How do you know the difference between dynamic and static boats?

    where are netting?

    Looked in boats from cherno to komarovo, they don't spawn anywhere. Where do I look for them?

    Being friendly can be rewarding!

    I agree, My friend and I were in Cherno and we came across a freshie. He kept trying to get into the house we were camping in and kept yelling 'Merry Christmas' but he wasn't aggressive. We talked to him and told him we would not kill him if he kept his distance, and he gave me a smersh vest/pack and gave us some intel about a group of bandits that were currently in Cherno. Be friendly, don't kill freshies!
