Glad to see they took your work and changed the values in-game. I am not really sure why people are arguing in favor of poor ballistic properties. Maybe the fact that Rocket and the team incorporated your values into the game will shut them up :D

Sad isn't it? Cherno used to be such a great city... OP, I as well would be more than happy to give you a fresh spawn, Cherno is my chill spot, don't need you running around there. I'll be waiting for server details.

I lol'd. I spend a lot of time in Cherno and have never noticed that. I'll check it out and see if it happens to me too.

That was my favorite complaint in the mod, someone shouts friendly, you shoot them for whatever reason, and they rage in sidechat about how "I SAID I WAS FRIENDLY". My response was generally, "I didn't".

This isn't TWD and isn't trying to be...

While there are certain people that KoS for shits and giggles, I feel that how you approach a situation sets the tone. For me personally, some kid running in circles around me saying "Friendly, Friendly, Friendly, Friendly!", it really just makes me want to shoot you. If we run into each other and you act like a normal person, all is well. If you see them first, watch for a few, if they seem shady, don't approach and/or kill them (whichever your cup of tea is). Been in a few situations where myself and the other player are both armed, we come around a corner or open a door then, boom! guy in your face. We both react with a "oh shit, whats up man" and we talk, move on about our business, but someone starts screaming Friendly in that situation, both parties get worked up and someone fires.

It has nothing to do with being in Alpha. All ArmA games have the option to play in 3rd person. The fact that people use it cheaply to see over walls, etc. has everything to do with the person playing, and nothing to do with the fact that this game is in alpha. While I understand that "Go back to CoD" is the typical response to people complaining on this forum, not sure how it works here... The OP is complaining about people cheaply using 3rd person to their advantage. Last time I played CoD, granted it has been since MW2, it was in first-person.

How does this have ANYTHING to do with the fact that the game is in alpha or CoD: Ghosts?

Go Away. You too. Who cares if you lose your character, go loot more and get geared up, there are plenty of warnings telling you that would happen. Before you bought the game even! Anyone who has paid attention to the dev process knows that there will be no base building or vehicles for a long time. See you in a year! It's not bugged. I have woken up from quite a few unconscious screens, fix the reason for going unconscious, and you wake up. Crazy right?

There is a pretty good amount of space between when you get hungry and when you are full

Your going to need a good amount of food, eat about 3-4 cans of sardines/tuna then spam water until you are full, color should come back after awhile, don't expect it to be too quick.

Except you CAN change the fire mode, it's T by default, it doesn't say anything or indicate that you've changed it, but it does work, I do it all the time. Add a MP stock and maybe a hand guard, it becomes pretty nice. I actually started using M4's over Mosin's once I found you could change it to semi, helps a lot.

Great video. Very well done, much beans.

Yeah, still no zombie respawn, but I did have to use my SKS in Balota (town not airfield) to kill a zombie, which led to having to kill literally another 17, more than i have ever seen before in SA

¿Que?

Ha. I recognize the name in chat, we saw that on the road by the factory on the coast also

Last night I was checking the deer stands in the army medical area south of Balota Airfield. As I exited my gear menu, which I apparently had tunnel vision on, I noticed a flare near the deer stand directly across from me. My heart jumped at the thought of someone getting so close without me noticing, despite that in was after midnight, and the thought that he could have already seen me and have the drop on me. Fortunately, he had not seen me and was busy looting the deer stand. My heart pounded, I thought about calling out to see if he was friendly, but I realized that was futile. I aimed down the Kobra sight of my brand new AK-47 I found at the Airfield, I fired 3 rounds, he dropped. I was unsure of his condition, whether he was dead or had gone prone, I could see his thighs and legs from the ladder entrance of his dear stand. As I waited his inevitable death from loss of blood he stood up and took aim at me with an unknown firearm, I fired 2 more shots into his face, and had started my road to banditry. Shortly after that event I decided to head into the nearby town to see if I could find more necessary survival supplies. I had made my way into the corner store without incident and proceeded to loot the building and found much of what I needed just in the back of the store. No point in not checking the front of the store, despite being low in backpack space, right? I was in the corner checking the loot pile when I thought I heard a foot step in the back room. I spun around and took a step towards the counter to get a line of sight on the doorway to the back room. He noticed me at the same time I noticed him. We both quickly took a few steps back, readying ourselves for the coming battle. I readied my G17 and leaned right to try and get a shot on him through doorway. There was no sight of him, it was very dark at this point, and I leaned back into my cover. Trying to put myself on the other side of this engagement, I thought about what I would do, so, I slowly moved myself into the other corner, which provided safety from both the doorway and the window front. After about a minute a shotgun went off right next to me, I thought I was dead as my heart jumped into my throat at the sound of the blast and the shattering window. Realizing I was unharmed and that he had shot at my original position, I switched to my AK Assault Rifle, which had recently acquired the taste of blood and was thirsty for more. Leaning out I put a few shots into the ground where I thought his shot originated. In the light of the muzzle flashes I could see that he had moved to relative safety, as there were now zombies running down the street towards him. Assuming he went back to the rear of the store to escape the incoming infected horde I readied my sights on the doorway once more. Two more shotgun blasts to my right! "How is he still there?!", was the first thought to cross my mind, followed by, "Fuck, those were really close that time!". This time I stepped out and let my AK have a talk with him, no pop shots, full-auto. After putting about 10-15 rounds into his general area, I was surprised that I didn't see his dead body being eaten by zombies. He had crawled left just in time to escape death, but I know he was getting close, as I had hit him with a few of my AK rounds. This time he had to have gone back to the rear of the store, no doubts. I moved into my previous position just in time to see him step out of the doorway of the back room. I pulled the trigger, so did he. I woke up a few seconds later, vision blurred, bleeding profusely. After quickly bandaging my wounds I made my way to his dead body, partly to confirm the kill, partly to loot his sorry corpse. At this point I was extremely low on blood and on the verge of passing out at any moment, who knew for how long. Zombies were starting to enter the store, to my dismay. It wouldn't take much to end up like my newest friend on the floor. I dispatched of the zombies and exited through the rear of the store. After making my way to the harbor, losing consciousness 3 times along the way, I stopped in a safe building and collected my thoughts. It was a rough night, but I was alive. One more step down that road. (hope you dont mind how drawn out it is. wanted to make a story out of it kinda, what'd you think?)

Have all the beans! :beans: :beans: Thank you for making an intelligent forum post about what makes this game one of the best.

Lol, yeah on the puking, hadn't really ate much, few tins of tuna and the like, some water. Everything seemed fine, was Hydrated and only had just hit Stuffed, took off running, my guy stops, spews, and then no issues.

I found it pretty hilarious when it happened tbh.

It's not supposed to replace the Mosin... It's not a "Sniper Rifle" SKS effective range 400m(440yards), unsure why everyone wants long range scopes for this gun

True dat. It's more interesting to at least try to interact with someone, even if it results in their death.

After 161 hours of play... 27.

Lol, was playing experimental last night, met these guys and they said that their friend had found some berries, then he fell over unconscious, "wrong berries" they say.
