The Rise (and possibly demise) of The Chernarus Revolution
AlfalphaCat replied to carcass's topic in Gallery
Sorry, but that, would have been my honest reaction to such a clusterfuck. I get it, people all role played at the same time with different things in mind. Just sad, that people are that bad at communicating anything relevant. Not that this is not interesting, good work nabbing this. -
The Rise (and possibly demise) of The Chernarus Revolution
AlfalphaCat replied to carcass's topic in Gallery
Why didn't you scream, 'GIVE ME SOME FUCKING FOOD!!' If this is how actual clans try to operate, it is either extremely idiotic, or severely funny, or both. This is why I think some of the big 'problems' with the game should be worked into the lore of the game, and create new mechanics to make it all fair, and such. If you guys are a "CLAN" or some such; may I suggest a name? Y'all act like a bunch of cockroaches. ROACH:the Reorganized Opposition Allied Chernarussian Hive. have fun out there kids... -
This. It's not that bad. Accept your tears like a man.

Dude, you post too much.

Do New Players Not Understand How Hard Core This Shit Is?
AlfalphaCat replied to bfisher's topic in General Discussion
These guys all had revolvers, and it was still more 'hardcore'. Not to mention, the most hilarious DayZ footage, to date. :) :) :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRpPIyJDSEQ&list=ELUrdXMdAo_3A -
Combat Logging Will Increase With Update: Log Out Timers
AlfalphaCat replied to Solopopo's topic in General Discussion
I think both measures are being implemented to counter ghosting, combat logging, and server hopping. Seems to be a fairly elegant solution, without being heavy handed. How do you judge something like this, without it being put to use by a large amount of players? All that alpha is is testing. Get it through some of your skulls. Try it, if it doesn't work, tell someone. -
Do New Players Not Understand How Hard Core This Shit Is?
AlfalphaCat replied to bfisher's topic in General Discussion
Unless, these days, you go there at night. Shit is spooky. LMFAO Just wait 'til it is overrun with zombies, when you get there. Every time. But fug that thermal shit. NVG is fine, but the thermal optics were the definition of OP, and rather boring, for that matter. Great post, OP BTW Brings back all the good and bad memories. :thumbsup: :beans: -
who cares?

There's no reason to go to the NWAF or the north anymore (here's why)
AlfalphaCat replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Pointless thread is pointless. -
I don't know. Does this forum have a search function? Given there are already 50 of these f-ing threads you probably don't even need to use the search.

A Google Street View tour of Chernarus (updated)
AlfalphaCat replied to larrylongbottom's topic in Gallery
The terrain is based off real satellite imagery from the Czech Republic. Funny, just like the OP posted in his first post. -
Steam name gone, character gone
AlfalphaCat replied to DirtyscumbagLith's topic in General Discussion
The experimental version is on a separate hive, I believe. -
My entire group just died... and there weren't even bandits or zombies.
AlfalphaCat replied to RangerFire's topic in General Discussion
So by your logic, you play DayZ to get 'beans' in the DayZ forums? Good luck with that. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: -
How seriously do you take your gameplay?
AlfalphaCat replied to KnightFall1856's topic in General Discussion
Pretty much the same. Though it is always a gradual growth in seriousness. That is until the Mosin is almost as much a death sentence, as the Lee Enfield was. You don't need a weapon at all to deal with zombies. Just punch them to death. -
Whats the Burlap Sack For ? Here is the Answer !
AlfalphaCat replied to Ozar's topic in General Discussion
Wow, just wow. That is pretty racist. But I am guessing you are ignorant as to why. Still, unnecessary. The internet is still the 'real world'. -
That should be a feature.

You are cutting the survival aspect out of the game, entirely. Sure, one day, you might hop into a room that people are in, and get ganked, but the odds are most likely in your favor. If you want to just play with toys, get Arma 2 or 3. Quite easy to try everything out, without any danger to your character. There was a time when this game was considered 'hard' or 'unforgiving', but little boys that can't stand losing had to figure out every way possible to, 'game the game'. The game and the community are poorer for it. So is gaming in general. *shrug*

Stop cheating, and deal with it.

Just opened a can of bean soup w/knife in RL
AlfalphaCat replied to Wiggin Miller's topic in General Discussion
So many of these damned threads. There are literally a handful(in game) of different things you can open cans with. Some are better than others. Deal with it. Food is not even that hard to find, that a little waste is gonna have you starving to death. :rolleyes: -
This is a weird topic. And yes, he doesn't wear shoes, but he seems like he know what he is talking about compared to some of the other yokels on TV. I actually think chubby little Ray Mears could out survive most people, just because he knows how to do so many things, with so little. His extra fat, probably wouldn't hurt either, in the short term. @Karmaterror, holy f-ing jesus balls, do they not teach English in the UK anymore?

M4 in your hands and Mosin on your back, or visa versa?
AlfalphaCat replied to medium00rare's topic in General Discussion
Right, and that is a pack that he probably takes the time and effort to pack in a balanced manner. Can you get a long rifle in there, or you gonna just let it flop around on your back. You could strap it onto a pack, but that would make it inconvenient to use. The word cumbersome was created for a reason. Feasibility is not all about the weight of items. -
Can we get some measures to combat the myriad of pointless/redundant threads on these forums. Perhaps not let folks with less than 50 posts, not be able to create new threads in certain subsections. Since the bug-tracker is on separate accounts that wouldn't be a problem. Let them start as many threads as they want in Recruitment and the New Player sections. Seriously, it seems most of the new people in here have never used a forum. They treat it like some chat room. Can't for the life of them use the search function. Most of it is just drivel from fappwits that don't know what an alpha entails. There are probably a thousand threads that could just be outright deleted for there lack of activity and usefulness alone. I suppose this is a little on the ranty/ragey side of things, but there are plenty of measures that could be made to streamline the forums. Perhaps even educate those not familiar with the use of internet forums, on more proper ways of communicating there issues and topics of choice. Just a thought... Later, Alfa...

AlfalphaCat replied to medium00rare's topic in General Discussion
I would say it's not worth carrying two rifles at all. Better off with the Mosin and a handgun. I am pretty sure I wouldn't have died earlier, if I wasn't carrying both. Some dude/dudes with really bad aim got the drop on me, and if I could have run at full speed, I probably would have made it to cover before they finally finished the job. You can't really just drop the gun real quick either, climb ladders, or do much of anything, quickly. -
Says the guy with one post. Cute. I for one would think a conversation between Rocket and a survival expert would be much more interesting. Say Ray Mears, or that Cody Lundin guy. Anyone says Bear Grylls, gets a fire ax to the face. :)
