Zombies chasing people indoors alone is going to change this game dramatically!

Wow, no chance this year then. We can all stop F5ing this thread I guess now.

Yeah I agree about the lack of announcement upset. We were told a week ago that there would be an announcement this week and it just created excitement all over. I imagine many people were on forums and internet more than usual waiting for the news of a release date but we've all been let down in that respect. I don't mind if it's delayed, I love the mod and I could keep playing it for weeks and months more but talking about releasing it this year and announcements that never materialise isn't really fair. I wish they didn't say anything at all to be honest.

I found 5 in the desert on Panthera before. Drank them all at once for extreme powers!! :D

why doesnt meat sustain you longer than canned food ?
RosscoMac replied to dgeesio's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
He's not talking about blood though, he's talking about hunger. It makes sense that different foods should sustain you for different lengths of time. Maybe even doubling up with two tins of beans would help for a bit longer than just one but with a limit so you couldn't raid a shop for ten tens and eat them all at once! -
Hello everyone! Been playing this since it came out but only started to get into it properly and actually do well at it in the last two weeks. Always play with one of my buddies, we gather some supplies and eventually meet up in the wilderness somewhere and try to survive and find better kit wherever we can away from the big cities Really enjoying the game so far, haven't managed to get some of the cooler military weapons or camoflage gear or helicopters yet and haven't even explored that far north either so still plenty to do. The only thing that is almost ruining the game for me is the bandits. I keep getting killed unfairly by bandits and it's really annoying me. I'm not the type of person to shoot people on sight as I would hate to ruin someones enjoyment and hard work but it's beginning to look like I'm gonna have to change my play style if I wanna survive now. The game I have at the moment I am way north in Berezino now having travelled a fair distance to get there. I looted alot of buildings and snuck past a lot of zombies to get there and have found some pretty decent kit to keep me going for a while now. I was getting ready to log out for the evening and save my 3 or 4 hours work so went to a nearby forest, checked all around me as I'm always paranoid there are people about and settled down to make a fire and cook the raw meat I had first. I done that and was almost finished organazing my gear when all of a sudden I got three shots fired into me from behind. Sounded like a military weapon and sounded far away. I luckily survived the shots without bleeding or getting broken bones so I quickly jumped out and ran into some nearby bushes to save and quit. I don't even care anymore that it's classed as cheating. I was gonna log out in the next 30 seconds anyway but somehow in this huge map I am well north or the normal places to be and in a forest hiding on a server that had dropped down to only 7 people by this time and I still got shot in the back. How can I be so unlucky all the time!? I haven't even murdered one person in the game yet but I think I'm gonna have to start now. Is anyone else in the same position as me thinking of turning to the dark side just to survive?

One shot kill in the head. I use it all the time as they are so common!
-
I still haven't killed anyone. Seen someone today that I got the drop on but didn't do anything to him and he didn't even know I was there. I'd feel so guilty if I did just in case it was someone like me who hates bandits and plays it nicely. :lol: Someone shoots me though, I will try to kill them without a shadow of a doubt.

You want some more progress screenshots of DayZ Standalone?
RosscoMac replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
The thing I want fixed the most is when crawling across the threshold of a doorway and the game decides you want to stand up, so you start running instead alerting all the zombies around you to your presence! -
Yeah that's a good point. I've been playing on low servers today and not even met anyone at all so haven't been able to test that theory just yet!
-
I've never even came across a good person giving things out never mind a bandit giving things out! I must be joining all the wrong servers.

I'm with Rossums on this to be honest. I am quite a paranoid player so always take things slowly and look around me at all times for zombies and other players. I am confident no-one followed me so either the player was a hacker or they were further into the woods and I just never seen them. It wasn't at night though and as I said, only 7 people in the server so I just found it highly frustrating that I got attacked like this so far from the normal hotspots with so few players in the game. I went north to avoid these kind of players but it seems like it hasn't worked. Hopefully when the standalone version is released a lot of the hacking is stopped anyway so you can accept that it was a real player that killed you anyway. I hate hackers more than bandits.

Hotfix Build 1.7.1.4 Rolling Update (was 1.7.1.3)
RosscoMac replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
New game started with no gear in my inventory. Completely empty. That's not normal now is it?
