    Flying a helicopter in DayZ

    Empty -> Air -> UH-1H (Takistani locals) Identical to UH-1H Takistani Army except OD green instead of camouflaged.
  2. Again, you morons, this is a "feature" of ArmA2, not DayZ. Changing the way magazines are reloaded/switched around isn't something that lies within the scope of the DayZ project.

    Flying a helicopter in DayZ

    Helicopters were what originally drew me to the ArmA series. I came from flying the arcadey helicopters in Battlefield 2, and although ArmA's helicopter sim is a bit arcadey itself, it's definitely a hell of a lot more realistic than any other combined arms game I've ever played. Give it some time, master it, and you will truly enjoy the ArmA series. I just load up the editor and fly a helo around just for the hell of it sometimes. Hopefully ArmA3 will incorporate the Take On Helicopters flight model!

    Flying a helicopter in DayZ

    It's the exact same thing as the rest of the game, why would it be any different? Rocket sure as hell didn't dumb it down or something!

    Is this worth $30

    I've bought ArmA2:CO twice (both times for $30) and ArmA1 four times (for $19.95 a piece) so that friends could play. After a week they bought the extra copies from me. I was a CoD player until I discovered ArmA in 2010. I have not gone back. It's the game I always dreamed about. No bullshit.

    Self Administered Blood Packs

    Perhaps an "IV Kit" item (similar to map, compass, etc) that makes personal blood transfusions possible?
  7. Just train yourselves to use up the mag before you reload it! Holy shit, like real life! Show me the soldier who is hurriedly transferring rounds between magazines during a firefight!
  8. Definitely! I noticed myself saying that to a friend and it honestly surprised me! "Yeah man, we played ArmA before it was cool..."
  9. That's very cool and quite respectable but there is such a thing as the correct terminology. :cool:
  10. ArmA2 is set up like real life. If you shoot 5 rounds out of one mag, the game tracks it. I won't even bother telling you why you wouldn't waste time transferring rounds between magazines. Maybe if you were camped out somewhere and had nothing else to do, but DayZ/ArmA2 doesn't really portray that situation (nor does any game). BTW, they're not "bullets", they're "cartridges" or "rounds". The bullet is the actual copper/lead bit that goes down the barrel and hurts people. The thing in your magazine or loaded onto your stripper clips are your cartridges, not your bullets.

    A Public Apology

    Just goes to show: avoid other players! Trust only your friends!
  12. Yep. Giant effortposts on the forum aren't really going to change anything... considering that we've all been posting like this for literally months now and have always arrived at the same conclusion... that PvP is just a fact of life in this game. I've stopped worrying about it!

    The TeamSpeak conversation goes like this: "Hey man." "Hey. What server are you on?" "US5." "See you there." ;)
