Here is an informational episode for newer players about loot. Hope some of you find it helpful. : )

Yeah, thats why I added the means of escape... and refreshing the zip tie to keep them bound. : P

Someone wanted to have some flying lessons, but got bored... So this is what I did to liven things up for him!

Hilarious! Awesome! Explosive! Check it out!

Episodes 1 & 2 are complete and posted! Episode 3 is almost done and 4 is in the folder to be cut immediately after! Explore! Find some of the better loot points! Face zombie suprise attacks! Full on zombie mobs! Vehicular blunders & stunts! Plus a surprise ending to the series! :D

The finale episode is posted! Watch Mr. Rogers as he concludes his whirlwind tour of Taviana and wraps it up in a very special, heartbreaking way! Bring your box of tissues!

Configuring the keyboard to what you are comfortable with certainly helps. And a joystick is even better than that. But all that is meaningless if a person won't listen lol... I keep watching this and just laughing all over again.

is now up! Enjoy!One more to go! Episode 5, I'll pull an awesome motorcycle stunt!

Hey! Go ahead and post any videos you would like to. I'm actually having a lot more fun lately doing these instead of just playing, lol. Guess its kinda funny to see my own mistakes as I go through these places. I just posted Episode 3: I'm looking forward to episode 4, since I'll have a (spoiler!) vehicle glitch that was quite entertaining! Funny enough, I checked on your web/forum just a few days ago & even hopped onto your TS briefly. Looks like you have a pretty extensive organiztion. Quite impressive! I thik your servers are in France right? I'll look again for your server(s) and see what my ping is. Maybe you'll see me on... Hehe, but its about time I changed my current alias. Mr. Rogers has about run his course! lol Mmm what next?

Want to be a pilot in DayZ? Want to learn better how to fly? Heres a great way to do it!

Nice idea for a series actually. Your voice is fine. That guy is just trolling. Is it possible to not make the video not glow quite so much? Maybe you have brightness up high? Enjoyed it.

The one from DayZ doesn't show up in my editor list for some reason I haven't figured out yet. *shrug* So I chose one near to it for the video. There are several DayZ doesn't use that are about the same range of control that I prefer. My main point was to demo some basics. I had a guy ask about piloting recently which sparked the idea. Thought this would help him without hours of repairs and easy to recover it you mess up sort of way. lol

Yeah... you can back flip any chopper if you have the proper altitude. I've also gotten a few screams playing other mods where things happened. On Ace/acre, one time I got winged with a full load of guys and went into auto rotation... had plenty of time.... and the people were all "WE"RE GONNA DIE! DON'T KILL US! SET IT DOWN! AHHH!!!!" They were so creaming on TS... But when I touched down on a beach with time to spare and they were all like.... wow man, nice landing. Just hafta laugh. But my main purpose on this video was to stir interest in flying and give some tips, not terrorize anyone. : P

What is dis episode about? ROE mahn! ROE! And food! yah that too mahn! Can yah dig eeeet?! Woah watch that gun! Don't ya be shootn at meee!!!! But seriously... What is a ROE? How should you roll if you are in TMW? Can it still be fun to play that way? You just wait and see...

Why play DayZ? Whats TMW about? Watch and see!

Maybe... have keys to "lock boxes" in certain static locations (houses, apartments,, barns, behind a picture, in a corner, under a trap door, etc) - ONLY openable by key... The key would act like a vehicle or tent, in that it spawns in certain locations, lasts 7 days with no activity then cycles back into spawning, but if used it remains in that player's posession & the box contents also remain safe. So its a REAL valuable items... Something people will really be looking for. Perhaps make the keys server specific (like when a tent is placed it only appears on that server?) as well as location specific. That would increase availability of boxes & keys. The key might go in a special inventory slot (key chain)? It would have to have a "tag" with info on its box location just to keep it somewhat playable. At the least a rougyh map or basic description of where (city name and building?). So whoever found it or took it off another guy would have an idea of where to go to get into it. Interesting idea.

dunno... sounds overboard to have all this break down. If previous mechanics are any indication (i.e. eating every 30 min, uber fragile cars, poopy suggestions, etc.) then ull have ur gun breaking ever hour or less "just for realism and fun". I understand people want realism, but it becomes exagerated in a game and converts into GRINDING, which isn't as fun. As for the suggestion to get rid of 50 cals... I really don't get why people keep saying that. I play daily and hardly ever get shot, much less with a 50 cal. I personally dont use one since it cant go with night vision & is not handy when looting. I rarely even use the DMR, favoring automatic rifles for zombies,or even a crossbow. I honestly dont want the 50 cal taken out tho. You need that sense of "someone out there could be watching with a 50!!!" And I find it funny how people want "realism" but dont want to get one shot by a 50 cal...

Whats the proper code for making a link in your signature that is just the text? I tried several different things but this forum is so funky... lol. Tried [link=... Tried <A href=... As it is, I can only put the text and link separate. Thanks for the help.

Awesome! It worked! Thanks so much all of you.

Ahh the editing mode got it. Whenever I did the exact same thing in the normal window it just wouldn't show it properly... I now can do text links. I'm trying to work out an image link. Oddly the editor SHOWS my image as a link... but in my actual signature it just lists the img url as a link... What am I missing? (* added obviously) [*url=http://www.youtube.com/user/SeddrikFrost][*img]http://s211290890.onlinehome.us/public/Personal/DayZ%20FrostSig4c.jpg[/*img][/*url] The image is 494 x 124... so its not a sizing problem. Tried just the image alone without a url link... and it still won't display in the actual signature properly.

I've already done this with friends via direct chat. Its easy to do as is.

Mmmmm... tried that but it still comes out showing every detail instead of converting it to an actual link. Dunno...

I would love to be able to smack things with a pistol or rifle... maybe have it as scroll menu option to switch between melee or firing normally, like when you change mag types. ALSO I think allowing the hatchet to be equiped in the SECONDARY gun position is a must for melee.

First person increases realism and immersion? Not for me... Increases tension because this would remove an invisible third person periscope that lets players hide behind obstalces and peek around corners? In RL you could peek much more effectively than you ever can in a game... In RL I could peek a corner and you'd never see me. Lets not kill the game over this. Balances combat due to third person expoliting? Everything thats omeone doesn't like is an "exploit". Game engine is clunky and third person helps navigation/finding items? Yes definitely. First Person only would radiclly increase the stealth aspect of the game? Not really. It would just mean people playing with blinders on... so that even NOT stealthed someone could walk up to you and you wouldn't know it. Prone would be highly effective because the periscope of third person is gone...? Not really. Crawlers would be practically blind... so whatever advantage they gained would be cut by their own handicap.

All the people who complain about being solo... thats a choice. I played solo for a bit and got bored, and joined a clan. I still play solo a bit and with particular individuals I trust. Its much more fun that way. So what needs to be changed? Nothing really, except peoples play styles IF they want to group up or not. Can you survive alone? Yes, but its harder to get healed up (more work to get food etc.). Ive spent long periods of time when I palyed solo hunting or gathering just to get healed up all the way. Also playing alone makes vehicles harder to find and get parts for. Since I grouped with friends, I get more vehicles/rides than I ever did solo. So theres already incentive to group up if you want to, but also the option to play alone if you want to. Making the game unbearably hard will force people to have less options and freedom in the game. The end result is that people will kill more IMO. It will just add more "justification" out of desperation to pop that guy and take his gear. The game is sandbox - and it is what you make it. So make some thing of it instead of trying to change the game into something like seeing how long you can live while standing in a burning inferno.
