Why is this pinned? It's interesting but jeez there's 20 posts like it everyday....

Thermal is great for scouting. It is one of the three primary weapons I carry (Along with AS50 and M4A1 CCO SD). The gun, however... well I wouldn't trust it to kill a boar...

I haven't forgotten about this! Bumpety bump...

Haha that was way cooler than what happened to mine! Mine shot off like a grenade launcher, yours seemed like it was accidentally filled with helium or something :P I like the comment though - should have paid the toll... PS: Do you have a business card for when I need your roadside service?

Save it and it will right itself on a server restart. I once tried to fix a flipped ATV by ramming it with a pickup, it ended up flying a kilometer into the air and landing miles away, never to be recovered...

I shot my friend for his beans

Nope, I have like a flobbady-gillion of them

You're very welcome, I'm glad you got it working - I think the reason you experienced trouble was because you were using Steam and not any of the launchers. I'm starting to think Steam has the power to temporarily change your CD-key when launching the game without actually editing the registry.

Please livestream whilst trying to navigate the gear menu with a controller haha - gl

Just flick video memoru between default and Very high - fixes artefacts every time for me

Yes, I heard Rocket is coming to have tea and cake with all 900k players and then afterwards we can all ride on the back of his little pink pony....

Set video memory to default all the time, when you get the glitch, change to Very High, save it, and then bring it back to Default. It causes the objects to be re-rendered so should remove any artefacts

Grats, although it shouldn't of taken you so long - you probably weren't looking in the right places or were playing on the same server with crap loot that hadn't been restarted in ages! Personally I have DayZDB map on my second monitor (especially when driving) and use my GPS for close-navigation. The ingame map is useful for areas north of xxx020 and for finding coordinates of locations without alt-tabbing

I even get lost trying to go to it hehe! Don't worry, even if it's raided there are enough fully geared people to scavenge the items ;) Yep, the gun is beastly. I don't actually recall ever shooting it, but it's very useful for scouting areas for people! Personally, I'd still prefer the AS50/M107. There is usually enough ambient light that after 20 seconds of waiting your eyes will adjust and you can make out faint objects even at great distances. I usually scout with an L85 and switch to the sniper to take the shot. Sometimes it involves waiting for your unfortunate target to sit still and swapping to the sniper once lining your shot up with the L85 and hoping they haven't moved (or using a friend to tell you how much they moved). IMO it's much easier than accounting for bullet drop with a DMR. Seldom do I take shots that are under 500m and above that distance the DMR is hit and miss anyway (excuse the pun). In short, I usually scout with an L85 whilst a friend is rangefindering and switch to the AS50 once the target is silly enough to run in a straight line or even sit still. Oh, and only 70 odd votes to go!

This implies that one should "stop scouting". Novices!

No point letting items rot at camp whilst waiting for it to be raided!

Same question every day.... http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/32775-multiple-dayz-accounts-useful-for-shared-computers/

If you have exported the registry keys of both accounts, just leave steam closed completely and double click the desired registry file to change accounts before launching the game with DayZ Commander / Six Launcher or whatever you use. Using steam is only more hassle IMO

Game purchase only - definitely will be the most popular. I don't care how it's developed, it's the end result that counts.

UPDATE IF WE GET 100+ unique commenters, 3 GPS's will be given to runners up, plus one to the main winner!

Beans for that! Will add it to the FAQ

It's nor $30, it's free. You pay for Arma2 not DayZ

109 votes - so close yet so far. Keep it going guys! I'm also considering doing single item flash-giveaways - it all depends on the popularity of this post and the activity of the TeamSpeak!

It's not too much to carry - you can keep second guns and extra equipment in your backpack. I personally always carry three guns (AS50/M107, M4A1 CCO SD and an L85)!!! It's a bit clunky but you get used to it. Aaaand, keep voting guys, I really want to get this done! I also realised i have a camp on another server with a handful of GPS's, so that can be an option too!
