But hey, innocent until proven guilty, and there is no evidence that I or my friend were hacking. Supposedly, we spawned vehicles. But the only vehicles in use nearby were being used by the people we attacked. So if anyone spawned them in, it was [72nd], who are obviously friends to the people with power on that server. EDIT: I've filled out a server report for admin abuse, let's see what comes of it if a mod approves it. -

I know, but I was dead, and he hit the lobby, said something to someone and then boom, kicked and banned. Unless the admin is giving rights to every single clan that joins, he abused power by banning people for killing his friends and having no proof to back up his claims that we hacked. Add to the fact that other people were in the lobby being verbally abused by the supposed "admin's wife". AFG is supposedly the group that runs the server. From the server's loading screen, the host is Fake Gov. I seen no one by that name on at the time, and I'm not, nor have I ever been banned from any other server in 2 months of playing. -

We know one guy's name, and that is because he aborted to lobby when he was shot. [Cpt.]Avaeth[72nd] Or something like this. Pretty sure that is the right name. There were atleast 2 other [72nd] members online at the time, as well as a ton of 2 other clans. All of them remained on after we were kicked. And since you play on that server all the time, you could probably get the admin to give us the logs. If I'm accused of hacking, I want the logs to prove it and not just some notepad'd editted version. -

If we are hackers, I bet you'll be pretty pissed when we never get banned from the game. Guess why. Cause we aren't. We aren't hackers. You're just mad. Admins on this server are abusing power and abusing players, and without any proof that we are guilty you come on here and join their side. Hey, why don't you play on their server. When you do kill one of their team, because you will eventually, they'll ban you, too. -

That's awesome, so we are hackers that hack without scripts, past battleye. Cool. Now someone needs to tell me how I'm doing this, when I'm not doing it. -

Happened to me. I got shot in the back by a gun with a LMG. Right after I died, kicked and banned for hacking. I stayed to bleed to death, and they try to say I was hacking. Blacklist these F***ers for abusing power. I'm putting up a server report in the correct forum. -
I love my FN FAL. But, as it has been said many a time, it lacks a scope. But that doesn't desuade me. Between the burst and the almighty 8k damage per round, you have a better time in closer range firefights, and can put 2-3 rounds into a person before they can even react. The death it pumps out makes people stop and die, or drive drive drive. Also, the sound makes people flee in terror. Sure, you'll aggro a few zombies, but any 7.62x51mm gun will cause that. Also, I love the sights. The gun is like a Lee Enfield with more rounds and a MUCH higher fire rate. Sadly, the Enfield was nerfed... But I would rather have a FN FAL over much less for the role I give in small squads. (Other weapons I enjoy are the M4 variants, and AKM, so you see where my bias lay)
-
Is an FN Fal considered "equal"? They do the same damage.
-
You can see over 1000 meters. They can see 200. I think it is fair. Personally, I'd like to see them move slower (still faster than players, though) and have more health, but that's just me.

alt f4'rs should abort life altogether
Zeromentor replied to dooshbaggalow's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
No, it's a mod. And they can't do anything they want. This is a mod, made by a person, and you have to follow their rules or get banned from playing this mod. That means no combat logging, as he considers it an EXPLOIT. And saying anyone can do whatever they want? I hope you die to a hacker every time you even remotely get off the coast. They are playing how they want, so you can't complain. Now go away, troll. -
Now WHAT is the chance of this happening!? (Forest encounter)
Zeromentor replied to vitdom's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Looks like a clan was heading somewhere. Either using that server to safely travel around (seen it before, even killed hosts of servers by their vehicles. Props to them for not kicking me or dropping the server, they know who they are) or they were heading for their campsite before the server shut down. Either way, I think you were lucky. If they liked your gun, or had any intention of killing you they would have done so, and the best you could have done is take a few down with you. -
Some servers are not restarted frequently enough and that actually causes problems. That, and those zombie hunters that spawn like 600+ zombies in order to increase their kill count. Usually, when you have a problem, test it on a few different servers. Sometimes it is just the server.

Need M4 Halo 203, Lots to trade.
Zeromentor replied to thunderpimp's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Five clips of what? Family Guy? American Dad? Also, I don't think guns can go to heaven. And even if they did, I doubt their alignment would be positive or holy. -
Obviously, I got here late. M14 and DMR are pretty much the same, the difference being scopes. One is limited at longer ranges, the other is limited at closer ranges. One supports a squad as they move. The other sets up a distant position, moving or not, and scopes ahead of the group for potential threats. If you are alone, I'd suggest the DMR for sniping, M14 if you want to have a high-powered weapon for medium range. Same damage as they use the same round. People like DMRs, so they are more likely to kill you if they hear it fire (people will come looking for you).

Instant kill cheat - Leg breaking :(
Zeromentor replied to neil79's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Had that happen to me as well, but the broken legs happened first. I knew something was up when the two guys I was watching all of a sudden hit the ground prone, and then I fell over... But, like the stuborn moron I am, I didn't disconnect, and soon found a guy behind me with a pistol that did over 22k damage in one round, listening to some moron scream, "IMA KILL ME A N*****" through his mic. I just wish people would stop giving these idiots the scripts to do this. I know they are too dumb to figure it out themselves. -
My buddy got teleported to a hacker with a huey. Hacker said, "HEY" through directional, and my buddy disconnected, screaming in the mic and bloodying my ears. I guess the hacker hit the admin next, as the server dropped a few seconds later. Thank God the admin was online. Sadly, me and my buddy missed out on our 3 dead bodies full of loot, and an abandoned van with a flat tire...

2-shot zombies, 4-shot players. Single headshot for either. As far as sniping goes, the L85 can give you the ability to find hidden targets, as well as sniper-hunters at night. They have the advantage if you are solo, as even a single round will give away your position down to 100 square meters. They WILL find you eventually if they are nearby. The L85 allows you to see them as they grid out and search for you. Many will take a long time, as patience is a mainstay. Sure, some might run at you with a hatchet, and in that case an M4A3 will be a better option with more close-range support with the sights. The L85 will have issues doing the same thing. Since you are alone, it is best to weigh pros and cons. We will compare. M4A3: You get flashlight, possibly better recoil control, and better close-range to mid-range sights. You can not spot hidden targets, nor make accurate hits past 300 meters often. L85: You get thermal, which allows you to spot people in day or night settings, as well as find hidden snipers. Due to the sight, it is not recommended for use at close ranges, and doesn't do well past 300 meters. Both weapons take atleast 4 rounds to down a player, use the same ammo, and take up the same space. I would take the L85 for the unique advantages (thermal), but if you have even 1 friend to team up with, you should hand them the L85 and stick with the M4A3 yourself.

Chainsaw? Sure. But, I think it should take ammo, like a Jerry Can for 500 uses. You'd probably never need to refuel it again, sure, but that isn't the point. Next, a major weakness of a chainsaw. Sure it can rip apart a person, surely placing them into the afterlife. But it makes a lot of noise. With that, I say using the chainsaw (just wielding it) should put out noise to 50 meters or more, with a burst of noise when used outwards to 120 or so meters. This way, it attracts zombies, as well as players. The latter burst of noise is more like a balance thing. Or whatever, I really won't care if a chainsaw was added or not. The engine doesn't really support melee so it would be buggy like the rest of them.

1 makarov shot brings down a helicopter...
Zeromentor replied to Tersidre's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
OP, I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want, but I have a very particular lack of skills. I will never be able to find you. But what I do have is two dollars and a Casio wristwatch. You can have one of them. But you will never, NEVER have my beans. Unless I see a video. -
Using 14 rounds with a 9mm pistol to kill a player is not, "Saving ammo". You have to drop people with a headshot to kill them in 1 bullet. Good luck with that. Unless they are AFK, or camped out on a hill overlooking cherno/electro, they will be moving. They'll be dodging, they'll be firing back, and your aim is going to shit just by getting in range. So either you are lying, or you are constantly popping fresh spawns after you tell them you are friendly and wait for them to start looting. Either way, your testimony is useless. Also, good luck dropping me with a single round from a pistol. I aim for the legs first, then tear into your unmoving body, so I know your aim is going to be off either by pain or movement. Or you meant before this patch, where 3 rounds from a .45 could drop a player. Now? Not so much. More like 9.
-
Either A: You are firing in third person. Don't do this, you will miss a lot of shots. Or B: You are a bad aim. Some weapons are just plain bad in terms of accuracy, and that is the reason I wouldn't use them. Makarov, Winchester (more of a limited range thing) as well as many 9mm firearms (weak damage). You also have to make sure that you are: Not moving. Not in pain. Firing in first person, using the sights on the gun. If you are still missing, your game has been corrupted and is being affected by ArmA2's built-in pirate detector, with ruins your game (accuracy of weapons, the controls, settings, etc). If you downloaded from Steam, verify your files. If you bought a CD, I'd double check to make sure it is the real deal. EDIT: Could also be lag. Try other servers, and make sure the same thing is happening. Also be sure to note that zombies wiggle around a lot. Body shots are easier to place than headshots, but take many times more rounds with smaller caliber weapons (9mm, .45, etc)
-
Personally, I think it would just be a waste of ammo. Firing while running means you aren't able to correctly use the sights, add in the bouncing and bobbing of the human body as it moves, and the awkward shooting position (aiming back while running) means that most, if not all, of your rounds will miss. Such a feature would only be used a handful of times by players until they stop using it, then many more would complain about the inclusion of such a pointless and useless feature and demand time to be taken to add their own pointless or useless features. So no. I, personally, don't support this suggestion.
-
I like the M4A3 more. Plus, it has a flashlight. Sure, many people don't like flashlights, but it is still there. Also, frontgrip. That is all.
-
OP is mad because this isn't the normal themepark game he expected. Nothing is handed to him for him to complete and return for a reward. Nothing is thrown in his way with BOSS next to some HP bar, and he isn't told what to do. Some people can't think for themselves. How are you suppose to have fun in an open sandbox style game? How ever the hell you please. If you can't think of anything to do, this isn't the game/mod for you.

What do you have to do to enable music to play through your mic?
Zeromentor replied to shreddedrocks's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I seen a pack of ghillies following a player in the distance. At first I thought they were stalking him, but he didn't have any weapons. When I moved closer, I heard what sounded like Five Finger Deathpunch playing through his mic in directional. Needless to say, I beat him to death with my fireaxe, and died suddenly to a high-powered rifle. Seems some people might be put off killing you if you play tunes they like...
