  1. In real life? You won't hit shit. Full auto fire with M-4s ect you won't be hitting anything either.

    Name weapons that should be in DayZ SA

    Sambo should be the weapon of choice in 'Russia', even though we are not in Russia lol. I like the AA-12. More shotguns. Edit: Anything with Cleric John Preston gets my vote, so samurai sword as well. And since everyone is hung up on Russia. S&W Model 3...also known as the Russian. .44 caliber ammo :thumbsup:
  3. DevilDog (DayZ)

    We need medic "cloathing" (red cross emblem)...

    Option A yes 100%. Option 2 no 100%. Also they could add the squads.xml file again so we can wear our own logos.

    idea for Prison to have door KEYS

    I like the locks and keys idea, but not for taking prisoners. That just makes zero sense honestly. I would be cool though if you log off in the prison you die, so no server jumping to different areas of prison. So I can get some keys and lock/unlock different doors and restrict access to different parts of the prison. Would make a good base of operations.

    Curious about peoples 'Rules of Engagement'

    So if I am armed and cautious you kill me on site? Not too fair, but I guess you don't want to take chances. If you are not attacking anyone I likely leave you alone. If you act aggressive then I will defend myself or others.

    Dogs & Standalone.

    You should hang out with me and "Hero". "No Hero, put that down. Don't put that in your mouth Hero." Scent dogs would be awesome.

    Strength in numbers?

    I mostly play alone, but having a 2-5 man group is "best" depending on what you are doing.

    Next patch: a big one?

    I would be happy as shit with a shotgun added. No clue what will be in though. I am thinking hunting/cooking is soon though. But probably just working out a few more of the bugs before they add anything else.
  10. So are you Clint or are you Tomm?

    How many zombies have you killed with your fists?

    I was bored after I died once so I decided street fighting zombies was the best plan. Once you knock them down you have to punch them in the back of the head. I call this the Vitor Belfort method (bonus points if you get the reference). Anyway, they are pretty easy to be down, but in groups become more difficult.

    NW Airfield

    Cause if it were close it would be called Balota or NEAF lol. The only thing I have found at the NW was a tac vest I was looking for but it was glitched on top of the lockers. So pissed. Then my one buddy fell off the tower to his death and me and my other friend ran off after looting his corpse. He didn't need it he died.

    Next patch due?

    I got the update today, am I the only one with shotguns, cars and zombie hoards? :P I started a new job this week so my play time has been cut until I adjust to my schedule, haven't played since Thursday so I am excited for a new patch as well.

    1,000,000 DAYZ

    Ok RPers, lets see your characters you like to play

    Wow some amazing stories and backgrounds here. I love it and hope this thread keeps going. (Frank there are no girls that are Navy SEALs though. Maybe she was an admin of some type? Then again this is a world with Zombies so why not lol.) Anyway, here is the latest of my creations. I love how sometimes you don't create a character for this game, but this game actually creates the character for you. Name: DevilDog Position: Field Agent Specialty: Medic The Inglorious Bastards are a Private Military Company that was formed during the early years of the Chernarus political unrest. The large size and unstable environment of the country meant that the company had plenty of room to grow. With the large amount of cash that was coming in their numbers grew to 250+ agents in country. It was a mix of Russian and American agents and also made use of local commando's. When the outbreak struck the headquarters in Moscow and New York did not know how to respond. They were unable to get the agents out of Chernarus so they struck a deal for even more money to help with the situation. Many agents were killed during the early days of the outbreak and many others are just missing. DevilDog has set up an office in Elektro and recruits from there. As time goes by more and more field agents come in from different parts of the country seeking orders. As of his last report TIB has been helping the CQF (Chernarus Quarantine Force) to make Chernarus safe and assist all survivors. (I plan on possibly having this turn into a non-clan clan. Meaning we (agents) play together when we feel like and assist CQF as well, but nothing else similar to a clan at all. No requirements other than a back story and no being a bandit.)

    Metal Detector in DayZ SA

    I like the idea of being able to have a "tent" that is really just a metal box of some type that I can then bury. Only way to find it is to get lucky or use metal detector. :thumbsup:
  20. So this is just an idea of giving the players some more stuff to do and something to try and achieve. (Warning: This is Alpha and something like this won't happen for a long time, no harm in day dreaming though right? Also this would have to implemented only after weather, snow, medicine, sickness ect were all in place and working.) It's a zombie apocalypse, you and your friends have made it through the worst of it. You've managed to eek out a meager existance living off of beans and sardines. Or perhaps you have thrived in the forests. Maybe even killed people for their supplies. Food is running low, the virus is spreading and the threat of death looms over Chernarus like a dark cloud. Now what? Head north in the search of safety. ***If you don't care about the 'story' part of this just skip down until you see the underlined part again.*** There is a Soviet military base way up north in the mountains that was used for cold weather / mountain survival. Low population, high number of fire arms, cold weather and deep snow could all combine to keep the virus at bay. It is our only hope. So you gather supplies and your friends decide to make the trek up north. The one road in is blocked by an avalanche and it's too cold/atmosphere to thin for helicopters to fly. (If you have made it this far thanks. Before people start freaking out about being able to 'win' have no fear. This is DayZ, there is no winning.) Do to your exposure to the cold, snowy, high altitude conditions you will "burn calories" at a much higher rate. So food and water will actually become a concern. If you are lucky you can find a few wild animals on your way, be wary though in the quiet mountains sounds travel further and attract more zombies. As your thirst builds you decide to break out that canteen, it is frozen though (reflected by 0% in the game). Luckily one of your members brought a gas stove and pot so you can melt snow to get fresh water. A few other members get to work on building a fire. You all get warm, hydrated and fed then continue the journey. After several similar stops you are running low on supplies, your navigator might have turned up the wrong valley and night fall is coming. One member got pneumonia and died, another is suffering from a bad case of frost bite. Finally through the snow you can see part of the base set into the side of the mountain and several out buildings. The doors are locked and it does not appear anyone is home. Sneaking past a few wandering zombies you spread out to search the out buildings. You here the screams of another member as he is taken down by several zombies. Finally one of you find the key (either an actual key, or key code). You make it inside the military base and find all the inhabitants are infected. It is not safe here, but you have to look for supplies. You kill which zombies you can and search for supplies. Another member goes down as his frostbite crippled his hands and he was killed by zombies. Just three people left. You manage to load up on food and gas for the stove. You also found the armory and a few left over (insert rare find here, nothing game breaking though, but good enough or cool enough to entice people to go up there). Now you have to travel back and continue your existence in the south. ***Ok all you other guys come join us now.*** The goal is not to force people to group up, but it would be a good idea to have some people with you. The hardiest people might be able to make the trip on their own. The goal though is to give people something fun to do and force them to use planning to accomplish it. Fail to bring enough gas or matches and you will certainly die. It will also make you use navigation, medical supplies, cold weather, wet weather survival ect. I just think something like this would be great for the game. Anyway, let me know what you guys think.

    Should Cannibalism be in DayZ?

    How to stimulate an Emergent Economy in DayZ - discussion

    I think gear degradation will play a huge role in trading too. So using the FTC proposed system if an M4 double mag = 50 BNs then what is it worth when damaged? Will be interesting.

    How to stimulate an Emergent Economy in DayZ - discussion

    No offense taken, I was not trying to set any value though, I was simply making up values to describe how it could/would/has worked.

    What maps would you want in the Standalone?

    Fallujah would be awesome. They should have Fallujah and takistan combined for a Mid East area off to the west of Chernarus.
