Fairness doesn't matter, this is dayz, if you have a sporter 22 and he has a G3 he has the advantage, that's life, it's not fair, deal with it.

You know they haven't played the mod when they think the addition of cars will mean they don't have to run everywhere anymore.

Grenade as a life preservation device - must read
a_ruttle replied to Pokerguy12's topic in Suggestions
with arma and dayz mod etc holding the throw key determined how hard/far you threw it, Red orchestra 2 has a system whereby you have a throw/hold for power key and a key to let the spoon go, starting the fuse on its way before you threw it [cooking the grenade] -

a_ruttle replied to Pokerguy12's topic in Suggestions
xD grenades are pretty rare though and there aren't many military spawns near the survivor spawns so I'll still try to be nice to freshies -
Why would you leave the North-east corner? Ever?
a_ruttle replied to maninthewall's topic in General Discussion
I just had a firefight in Staroye 20 mins ago and it's one of few fights/player encounters I've had outside of Military bases or the NE of the map [since the south coast spawns were wiped], 2 lads ran up to the police station and I heard them, they staked me out and told me to come out and surrender, so naturally I waited and riddled them with an MP5 when they came in. Then I got session lost before I could trawl through what wasn't full of 9mm on their corpses, gg ISP... -
Physics glitch in buildings, 'you are dead' need advice
a_ruttle replied to gianni001's topic in General Discussion
3 story ones with the attic? I used to have a problem whereby if I ran down the side of the stair cases that lead to the top 'shelves' of the red roofed barns I just collapsed dead but that hasn't happened to me for a while now -

This is dayz, a lad sprinting with the pin out of a grenade means death for all parties involved. -

I'd love to see the look on the 'ardboiz faces as their petty little group of 4-5 lads armed to the teeth loots NWAF to be interrupted by a piercing shriek of 'allahu ackbar' followed by an explosion of grenade like proportions, roughly 2-4 meters from where they're standing -
KSVK, no, never, high calibre snipers were taken out of the mod for a reason, also, it and its ammo weighs a ton, given that a fatigue system is WiP I doubt a KSVK makes sense, I do like the idea of the PTRD however, but it's only fireable from a supported position ie prone.

A guy approached me and some friends in the wilderness 2km west of berezino, normally we'd be friendly and welcome the rare occasion of a player opening a confrontation with 'hello, friendly' instead of gunfire, but alas we handcuffed him, stuck a bag on his head, and took his clothes.
-
You didn't hit him... Edit: Watched it again, yes you did.

Fresh Spawn VS Hacker ( Only 1 Bullet In Pistol )
a_ruttle replied to Toperek1990 (DayZ)'s topic in Gallery
Just about the only situation where using 3rd person to peek around corners is acceptable, 11/10 -
I think they should expand the map outwards by a few KM, and leave that new area as just countryside with a few villages of different sizes etc.
-
Spoken like someone who hasn't palyed enough arma II/dayz to know the map, it really isn't difficult to figure out where you are and where you're facing, that said the combine compass/map Idea is great

having 2 primaries on back instead of primarie and a melee
a_ruttle replied to Kellrush (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
It all adds up, especially when you see these lads with ammo cans full of rounds. -
I rarely stumble into players in the wilderness and when I do, I don't fire at them, because I'm not a bandit, In urban areas etc. it's a different story, you just can't trust them not to fire at you anymore.

Possible way to implement vehicles fairly into DayZ
a_ruttle replied to SamualACarver's topic in General Discussion
Dayz isn't fair, and shouldn't be fair -
Since firefights in dayz almost always take place between 2 and 10 meters, it doesn't matter, just stick 2 bursts into the chest/neck area and its job done
-
It died long ago, the only thing there is to do atm is kill, in the Mod there were tents and vehicles which provided an endgame goal, to hoard all the loot you can find for no apparent reason. In the SA the only endgame is killing
-
Bullet damage really lets the game down atm, it needs to be completely unforgiving, Earlier today I rounded a corner into a player who immediately, and stupidly tried to take out a mosin, so I let loose with my sawn off and hit her twice in the chest/face, from about 1-2 meters, she stayed up, started firing back but luckily missed and I managed to kill her after hitting her twice in the leg with a Mosin then in the face. Ridiculous

a_ruttle replied to Kellrush (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
Fair enough if they add in a weight/fatigue system, I still see no need to carry anything more than a Rifle and a few rounds -
We Need a Gas Mask to Match That ZsH3 Helmet [Image]
a_ruttle replied to Ethyn's topic in Suggestions
Still waiting for a proper fatigue system that punishes wearing gas masks and carrying your bodyweight in junk. That said I'd love if there was a use for gas masks, like a contaminated area, that had for example VX [ vx would also require full CBRN gear to stop skin contact so maybe another gas that works by inhalation only would be better] dumped on it to stop the infection. -
U.S.A. (Western) temporary military base site for western military goods
a_ruttle replied to rickyonsteam's topic in Suggestions
No, it makes the game much much much better, and makes players much less likely to run and gun through Berezino/Nova/Svetlo gunning down fresh spawn for fear of losing their prized gat. -
American helmets sort of make sense, the CDF in ArmA II were equipped with old PASGT helmets but that said I would prefer if chernarus was kept as close to an eastern european/russian state as possible
