Why do regular/recruit servers exist?
ratfever replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I agree 100% remove the option to make servers easier. Map player-icon destroys gps, so that's awful. And nametags make it extremely difficult to hide, and ruin immersion. There are many more issues I'd be happy to list. Get rid of regular/recruit servers and let's play this game how it's meant to be played. -
The m9SD is quite frankly garbage now. You'd be better off with a hatchet. The m9sd's damage is quite near negligable.
-
Well clearly people enjoy this game, with or without these so-called grim "realistic" events. Adding taboo elements would drive more people away, then it would attract people, as I see it. I know I wouldn't play this game if it was full of this "realistic" content.
-
By not adding in the horrors, that would be inevitable. There's a difference between a game that's realistic, and a real-life simulator. There is no need to add anything that would cause a stir in society.
-
Also considering the Enfield does half the damage it used to. You're better off with the much quicker and much more silent Winchester.
-
How can you possibly hate the AKM?
-
What are you suggesting? At the current state Dayz has nothing that needs to be censored, and it's fine that way. No need to push boundaries, it will always be bad for the game.
-
Sounds like you're having trouble, and that asucks, but it's an alpha. You need to expect some annoying glitches from time to time.
-
It isn't a spawn area, it's a glitch, bud. It's alpha, deal with it.
-
Am I the only one who reads the changelog? Guess that was an oversight???

You're returned to the coast when you log back in...

The building collapsing doesn't mean it was a hacker, you can easily take down a building with explosives. But the flying away thing was probably a hacker.

What is this? I'm losing 3 hp per second.
ratfever replied to velkkis's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
No, that is one of the more difficult parts of the game. It adds depth, finding these antibiotics that seem near impossible to get to. It gives the heavily geared a reason to head into town. Even a 20-day player with an M107 can get sick, and this sickness can lead to his death. -
Are you positive there is not a zombie spawn nearby? Perhaps a crashsite or a deerstand. Or maybe a small town that you didn't notice? There is also the chance of a player dumping them on you, never think anything is impossible within this game.
-
No. This is a zombie survival game. Go play Slender, for a Slenderman game.

Crazy graphical glitches after updating to 1.7.2.4 and 95389

What are these "Artifacts"? -
I believe zombies are drawn toward players, and may slowly walk toward your position. I'd reccomend not Alt-Tabbing out of the game.

You're sick. The only cure is the elusive antiobiotics, or a bullet in the head. -
Direct chat's text seems to be borked for me, and possibly others. Everytime I attempt to respond or talk with someone. They never respond to my posts, nor am I able to see theirs. The only time I've ever had a convo was when side was still around. Is Direct chat messed up for anyone else? Perhaps the text part of Direct Chat has broken again?
-
bump for some help?
-
Post patch Lee Enfield... Yeah, I said it.
-
Doesn't seem it would be too much of a challenge. Only trouble would be food/drink and med supplies.
-
Have you ever heard of a Mr. Slenderman?
-
Enter on the num pad. Did you really need 3 threads for this? You couldn't google it?

Tom Berenger has a lot to answer for
ratfever replied to Gogster (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Snipers were made to kill at a distance... And now you complain about people killing at a distance? A sniper is supposed to be a ghost, unseen. His disadvantages? The gun is heard for miles around. Sniping from a great enough distance takes some skill. If a sniper fires on you, be sure to zig zag, and confuse him, it makes sniping 10x harder and more frustrating. Perhaps have a friend provide overwatch via sniper for you guys? Allowing him the ability to counter-snipe.
