I think you can no longer pitch or pack a tent once you die, but they would remain on the server as long as some one saves them every now and then. Correct me if im wrong

and also one aimed at the forums

the problem is arma engine, where every action you do requires you to stay still, I would love to see a bit more seamless movement..

Tents would be just fine if the duping exploits were fixed.

I like this, just what I had in mind. Although I think Arma's engine/server tech can't handle realistic high density cities, but IF they were to develop a engine of their own.. now that I would like to see :)

If you have hatchet, knife and matches you could make your way out of the town asap and into the wilderness to gut wild animals. This happened to me the other day, I was in Devils Castle to see if there was any valuable loot and I got into a firefight with a fellow survivor, I was coming up the wooden ladders and he was waiting at the doorway ready to pop my head, but he did not expect me to fight back, he fired 4 shots to my torso(i got lucky and did not pass out or break any bones, I take it was a low caliber gun) I then returned fire and managed to scare him to alt+f4. As I was left with 800 blood and bleeding badly I stumble back to ground level(high risk and maybe dumb move as it was difficult to see anything from the blur, but I did see the white dots on the edge of screen and silouettes of zeds closing in) bandaged myself as fast as I could. I got 680 somethings blood left and I cant see jack, tried to see my compass for directions but could barely recognize the arrow pointing north. I kill the most of the zeds and sprint the heck out of the castle area into the woods, luckily I did not pass out. But once I got into the woods I started to pass out frequently and I was kinda low on options of what to do. I decide to suck it up and endure the blurry hell/passing out every minute or so. With no friends to yell to come to aid I start to scan surroundings for white dots in the area and start killing/gutting boars and goats for meat, slowly regening my health. And here I am still, going strong and being a bit more cautious even if there isn't any indication of survivors :thumbsup:

you sweat alot since you are running all the time? :D

God, when do people realize DayZ isn't the same as Arma II...

Edit: now got in, works so far

Imagine if you or him would have been carrying DMR or M107, I bet it would have been a whole different story.

Bitch please, we don't even need beans when wildlife provides all the rations..

if you wreck your bike, just get out of it and save it, voila its fixed!

It should be a completely new map, or sahrani from Arma with enterable buildings, when Dayz is ported to arma 3 I sure hope its not on that damn greek island, there are hardly any cover judging from screenshots..

Fallujah was a bad suggestion I admit, but I would like to see a city that big in dayz :P

Too bad podagorsk is really really small map.. edit: maybe make one for Fallujah? :D

these are hilarious :D

Happened to me aswell.. same beta same dayz version, had flashing red food icon and decided to axe a wild animal, but they all just vanish before I am able to finish gutting them..

Game purchase only + possible DLC for free, Monthly fee is for MMO's only and this ain't one Studio developed, but community could have some influence, Community comes up with a great ideas every now and then, but most of the suggestions are total crapshoots. With studio development the quality of content is sure to be top notch. Kickstarter, Kickstarter is a good way to accumulate funding, but it has it's risks.

Double barreled shotgun or makarov

Why doesn't my game recognize 1.7.2.1? :I

So is 1.7.2.1 official now? since all I see are servers running this version and I don't have it yet :L

There isn't any "cookie cutter loadout" It all depends mainly from your playstyle. Get water bottle and hunting knife/matches/hatchet and you are pretty self sustained from the ration side.. If you roam alone I suggest finding a silenced weapon since you will attract a lot of zeds and many players if you run around shooting anything that moves.

the orbs are supposed to be simulation of your peripherial vision. Where white dots are zeds and items, and players are displayed with green dots.

I wouldn't snipe someone who has few followers on his/her stream, but if there would be wide enough audience then I just might do it for the lulz

Confronting zeds unarmed is lethal, but once I got my hands on Hatchet I've had zero issues with them, they don't even break your bones. I encountered a wierd bug though.. my character would go into shock if I threw an empty can to the ground.. I guess he doesn't like littering.. :P
