ZomboWTF

i think it's for some parts way too easy, others are just right: Zombies: WAY too easy, you can get into a pine tree when having 100+ zeds on you and they simply cant hit you, during nighttime they dont sense you even if you are standing right next to them, their health and damage is okay, but there seriously need to be more of them and they need to have a better pathing and the ability to hit you while running PvP: ATM, too hard, the long range endgame rifles(naming the AS50 and M107) are way overpowered, one shot kill no matter where you hit is ridiculous, its all against the "skill to get a kill" approach all other weapons have, hit the foot and he's dead, really cheap sadly, removing them or nerfing them would require all weapons to get a nerf, why use a AS50 which kills in two shots if a MK48 mod0 can do the same? and why on gods earth should it take 6 bullets to the chest from an AK-74 to kill? what the f*ck? weapons need to be re-balanced completely most people dont even recognize what huge advantage range gives you in dayZ if playing right, i saw someone taking an AK-47 over a CZ550 just because it looks military-ish... Fun fact: anti materiel rifles don't do especially good damage against humans, their bullet passes right through without greater damage to the interiors, a rifle with a smaller caliber can do way more to a human than an anti materiel round, however, since they are made for it, anti materiel rifles can tear a motorblock into shreds with one bullet, but they dont rip off arms or legs or let people explode...

they are extremely rare, as soon as they are found though, everyone on the server has at least one^^ its a very common thing that satchel charges are duped as soon as they're found

nice idea, give people additional skins for breaking their own survival records, a small beard for 7 day survival, a BIG beard for a month, and an afro for 2 months XD

One MAJOR problem with driving in a car without 3rd person: no mirrors sure, i bet i could learn how to drive in this game if it had mirrors, as long as mirrors dont work though, 3rd person is my first choice

Yep, thats definitely DayZs fault, getting your CD Key stolen and shit, cool story, bro

I'd be happy my daddy Rocket put me out and fixed the extremely awfull graphic bugs with me everybody loves 1.7.2.6 so far, and i didn't see any bugs being added, only bugs being removed, way to go rocket!

Ghillies are very easy to find, just farm the school building and pub in elektro on an empty server; they are close to each other, and have decent amounts of loot drops And since ghillies drop with a fair high percentage in regular civillian buildings, its easier to find them than you'd expect

it's a cowards strategy, cheap meta-gameplay and only "fun" if it never happens to you even against cherno and elektro snipers, its a d*ckmove

I totally agree with this, add way more melee weapons, add more crude guns, and remove most of the high end ones finding a hunting rifle should be something to appreciate, since having the range advantage on someone means victory almost every time Finding a M107 or another one-shot gun should be extremely rare, also finding silenced ranged weapons should be rarer, like the M4 SD and the Bizon (which currently lies at every crashed heli) I know most people think "Darn, i really want that M107 to shoot people in the face with from 900 meters", but that actually makes the game way less fun Making the combat more close-ranged due to crude weapons will result in a way better experience; Combat will be much more personal, you might find yourself in shouting range before you are in an effective shooting range And additionally, the overall accuracy should be way less, the characters we are playing in arma 2: Dayz mod are military and trained soldiers, a normal person would have real trouble hitting someone at over 50 meters with a pistol and over 200 with a rifle I think by making the combat more close-quraters and less "Who the hell shot me?" will bring back the old days banditry, pointing a gun on someone and threatening to kill them instead of just looting their bodies

You should seriously see a doctor, when under stress and playing, this symptom could get worse, it could be epilepsia however, when under stress in combat in DayZ, there way more of an adrenaline rush than in other games, could be both, but be sure to see your doctor

Hmm, seems like people keep playing DayZ like an arcade shooter, i try to survive and especially not get sniped That goes with extreme caution and slow movement, but so far it's my fifth day alive and i have 5 kills (not sniping anywhere, just roaming around basicaly looking for vehicles and choppers)

Sauber Karnickel, weiter so *bump* The private Scob servers are my favorite ones, the admin keeps track of hackers/dupers, and people are fun to play with in general, population is between 10-30 most of the time on both servers, so feel free to join our Teamspeak and ask a Scob Member for the the password

Sadly the only thing there is to stop a hacker is a private Hive server where the admin is free to do whatever he wants and him identifying the hackers and banning them afterwards Or bad hackers, like the ones being banned from BattlEye in big waves (keep going BE)

I am a Stalker fanboy, so i'd prefer the russian setting, just with more dense industrial areas and underground stuff a big city would be great, though, would be awesome to run around in it like in Fallout 3

.50 rifles are allready ridiculousy OP, especially the AS50 (semi automatic? almost no knockback? sounds like a Nailgun? WTF?) M24, DMR, CZ550, and all other weapons are okay, the M107 is good to live with, but really? you guys really had to put in the AS50?^^

Solution: Play on servers with first person only this makes no sense whatsoever, why do you want to even punish snipers? I know the AS50 and M107 are outright overpowered because of the one-shot no matter where, but all the other sniper rifles are balanced in terms of giving up close quarter combat ability

Try some privat servers, SCoB for example has two decent servers with good population and constant admin in charge You just need to visit TS3 for the password

11: there is allready a grass concealment layer, people outside of grass render range are invisible in grass if done right 29: Private Hive basically 40: The first few were about making realism higher, now if someone still has a working head he can be revived and healed by electric shocks? erm... Also, most of the weapon stuff is allready in the game, weapons have a spread no matter how steady you aim (try hitting something with a PDW on 500 meters) the aim is also shaking a lot after running a lot, more would be pretty stupid I love the ideas with the weigth/space of items, though this would make repairing choppers main rotors pretty much impossible AFAIK, rocket and the devs work on a completely new item management system in the standalone

PDW, only sidearm that can get rid of players fast without having to hit the head, the only other guns able to kill someone with only bodyshots are the G17 and the M9/M9SD With the PDW, just spray, and ammo is plenty, you can use G17,M9,M9SD and PDW mags, and MP5+MP5SD if you can spare one or two item slots If i have a DMR or other sniper rifle, M9sd is king

nice speech, but in a board game you have contact with the players on the table, you see their figures and what they have, people see when you are about to attack and can prepare, because every player is omniscient in your example this also means there cant be any circumstances of "randomn death" like in DayZ, running around for 2 hours... bullet to the head, or a .50 cal, you guys know what i'm talking about, it plain and simple sucks, just someone pushing your restart button also, being a board game, i'd doubt that it would take one hour of running, two hours of looting and luck to get some gear you actually are able to fight back at all with I'm not saying pvp is bad, it's what makes DayZ as great as it is and it's awesome, but your example is not at all applicable

well, battleye has banned people after they used hacks, they dont ban you instantly for it, seems like you fucked up

I really would have loved if the heli had crashed into green mountain because of a mysterious reason, or maybe a car suddenly standing at green mountain in front of the needles entrance, stuff like that, ya know

Are you sure this is the right part of the forum for you, mate?

You can also park a car on top and wait for the server to restart, BAM tent gone

"Sniping Clan" "Accept all classes" WTF? did DayZ become WoW with guns or what?
