    0.45 - How to catch and cook fish!

    Cheers! We spent hours gathering all the stuff to try fishing then we got ambushed west of Vybor (???) and had to start over :p
  2. Feedback appreciated :)
  3. Hey all, not the most exciting I know but it was so random to meet this guy and good to help him out - he stuck with us loyally as we hunted bad guys in Berezino and had plenty of chances to take us out, but didn't. My microphone didn't record properly unfortunately :/
  4. I think overall the zombies are a big improvement but the factr you pretty much can never get on top of them with guns in a city is annoying (I get that it is just placeholder). It would be nice if you could at least temporarily get yourself some breathing room if you fight hard enough. Maybe if they spawned progressively further away from where they died each time they got killed up to a certain limit.
  5. iConnorN posted on youtube how to play the mod background tracks while playing the standalone - I tried it and it is amazing! Very sketchy and ominous.

    Experimental: new town in NW, past airfield

    Yep standard loot spawns, so just like clothes, few med supplies, food

    Experimental: new town in NW, past airfield

    Hard to say exactly because there isn't a map fo experimental but if you headed directly NW from the NW airfield and went across the railroad into the paddocks a bit you should find it. It's about 3km from NW air I reckon.
  8. Hey y'all We see 4 guys approach the shipwreck and set up at a bend in the road. This is enough excuse to engage them ;) The video is shown from 3 different viewpoints (had a 4th member guarding the sniper/watching for flankers but they saw no action). I tried to edit all the dull bits out because I usually get bored watching vids of guys running for 10 minutes then eating 4 cans of beans before anything happens. This version has background music that I liked but some people found distracting: This is the same vid but with no music:
  9. One of the greatest movies ever made ;)

    Firefight at Berezino

    Hey all, really appreciate your feedback on this one. It was an amazing fight but I was unconscious for some of the good bits so not sure if the middle is a bit boring. I love how it starts though, still seems so unlikely to me that this actually happened ;)

    Whats wrong with server hopping?

    This is exactly the massive problem with it. I play properly and every time I get to someout of the way place, even on a quiet server, chances are some server hopper has jumped through ahead of me and taken everything.

    The value of a character

    I actually like some idea like this - it is realistic, doesn't punish anyone for playing how they want, and allows all kinds of emergent gameplay situations to develop.
  13. This is mainly to confirm, if anyone was wondering, that you can create a second steam account (you can even use the same email as your main account and this is ok with steams TOS confirmed by a steam forum mod) buy a second copy of the game (you don't have to redownload/install) and use it to run a second character in DayZ. Both characters can be used by just switching steam logins. Personally I did this because I play with different groups / solo at different times and it was killing me running back and forth the length of cherno to meet up with friends for a session. Also I'm more than happy to support the development of the game this way. But if I have a suggestion/feature request it would be to get more than one character slot in the actual game, even as a paid addon. Does anyone else run more than one account?

    Bandit? Or just playing the game?

    I reckon pretty much you go the the airfield you know its kill or be killed

    Next patch due?

    Hey y'all, sorry if I missed it. Has there been any hints or suggestions of how soon the next patch will be out? Very keen to see if it fixes the desync issues some of my mates are having so they can play with me again ;) I know, I know "When it's ready".

    Next patch due?

    What time zone are you on? Are you signed up for the experimental patches through steam?

    Bohemia interactive PLEASE READ

    Are you familiar with Brooks Law which basically says that getting more staff resources to work on a project willy nilly does not mean speeding up or improving the project beyond a certain point? More people means more management, more second guessing, more duplication and inefficiency. Hiring has to be done very carefully and only get the right people to do specific things that the team requires. Sometimes the best products come from very small teams with a pure vision. Software development always takes time and I think people with experience in the field would be feeling pretty good about where DayZ standalone is right now.
