no hate, just fail

confirmed infected taking multiple kill shots, lag or bug? IDK

at night time you can sprint around in plain view of zombies. and there isn't many of them it would seem, idk they seem piss poor, anything but OP

Drop your gun NOW! DROP IT! cheater or no, some nice kills (fuck CH and 3rd person mr 1 post elitist)

Yeah pretty sure he would not be able to hear you in that channel. And to answer jaan, no.... No it isn't

come back when you have 10x your current game time. you'll see... The mod was not designed to be fun and rocket mentions the fact in multiple interviews. He has never given the implementation 'fun' a second thought. Behaviour is not moderated. If you want to go round in the bushes shouting obcenities at passers by then your welcome to do so, want to go hack a noobs leg with a crowbar and leave him for the infected then you can do that also. chat channels are better off gone, its much more immersive not having 'any friendlies in cherno?' splashed across your screen every 5 mins or someone with caps lock on in a rage because there lack of skill just got them shot. if you want to chat with somone find a group out of game and hook with them on comms, you get much less dead'er that way...

group play is dead by desynch, could bearly keep track of our movments on screen and had to rely on comms to know where somone is standing. Infected can hardly detect you at night time, alowing you to sprint on grass in full view less than 10 meters away. didnt seem to be many of them either, and they somtimes spawn in the doorways of the closest building so you can just spray the group on approch (if your that way inclined)

Gear comes and goes like the wind and tides, but it shouldnt be at the whim of a computing error! it should be taken by bigger boys with bigger toys no? I'm all for getting out matched, out thought, out shot, out played by better players or bigger groups and loosing gear through legitimate methods because you learn somthing each time, 'in hidsight we should have done blah blah blah, then maybe we wouldnt have died'. you dont get better at chess playing the easy opponent. What do you learn when you log in to find your silenced second weapon has been deleted in your pack and replaced by beans or some shit you dropped 20 mins ago? nothing at all except the fact that you no longer trust the simple save on log out function... yes this is alpha and yes gear is lost now and then. knowing I will be shouted down in the forum about that fact is not going to stop me feeling a little but hurt when I loose that nice item its just going to make me think your a person who has 'its alpha' copied to your clipboard in case you need to come up with a rebuttal and cant engage your brain. if you no one voiced thier opinion how would rocket know what to change in future?

warlord3000 i lost my suit in a 1.7.1.5 server. had my gear tho

its just a huge ploy to get the wookies out of hiding! were on to you! WOOKIES UNITE!!!!! ....oh wait you took my costume, I'm not a wookie anymore :(

this might be an issue with you disconnecting through an improper method, ie server crash. you save on dissconection atm, but some times you loose hours of progress to bad server restarts and crashes. one time my friend warped to a location he was at 2 hours previous while he was still playing in the server, running... then poof back to where he was 2 hrs previous! the way chars are saved (and backpacks GRRR!) needs attention big time

I really do hate to say it because ppl use it in the wrong context in reference to big issues but, it is non the less an alpha mod... you know how far away from the map debug is? I had to run 30k the other night to gtfo of there and back to my group, and although I may not have killed someone in debug, I sure as hell stole as much food and drink from thier packs as i could to get me out. It's far away enough, and the issue is with many people loading into the same area and being able to get into the server they are attempting to join. you will see the others loading in and standing around motionless and some douchebags are going to take advantage of that.

ok we take the sniper rifles out, then what are you going to do with your nine inch bullets eh? all jokes aside they are so game changing to the player lucky enough to find them. you might be a blood thirsty madman who just cant wait to carry on killing with thier new tool, but have you stopped to think about the implications of a normal Norman picking up a sweet sniper with a barrel taller than he is? what does normal Norm choose to do ? leave it on the ground and go about his normal life, shoot some zombies and try for another different but better gun? No, I'm gonna place a wager that norm picks up this large, shiney, piece of kit and im gonna say 2-1 odds that he gets a little blood thirst out of it and decides to sit on a hill for the rest of the night... just waiting for beans, I mean a person to come into the view finder if you take all the endgame loot out, where's the end game

In a forum where there are members who dont even own arma2, or play dayz, yet still have an opinion about it and how it should be played, this is refreshing. To DayZ, the best alpha i've had the privilege to be a part of.

somone give this guy a cyote pack, m107, nvgs, gps, a nice silenced sidearm or a bizon in the pack and see if he still wants to remove them

The game is the game, kill or be killed... If you choose to tell somone where you are then expect to be shot, any other outcome is a bonus so dont get your hopes up. Telling anyone your camp site location isnt wise if you dont trust in them, expect to be robbed

The best method I have found is using the spirited machine launcher and manually dl patches as needed, you can make a shortcut of the launcher and add that to your non steam games in your steam directory. Copy the perameters from 'target' and 'start in' boxes from your orig shortcut to the one in steams directory. jobs a good'un. Overlay works

I'd like to meet you with your remmi on a dark night and show you just how lacking your knowledge of guns in dayz really is. A/S/L?

I could see about 2k last night on a snipe hill, weather is only temporary and server based.

1. its not trying to be like something else, dayz is dayz. 2. good idea, already posted pls search forums before posting. 3. gun benches.... see first point. 4. again already posted and planned pls search forums before posting. 5. can already lie in a tent and guess what? keeps you warm. 6. sounds like dead island see first point. 7. sounds like other games with alcohol abuse to obtain idk what as all you have suggested is 1 con no pro's. 8. already sugested see second point. 9. already suggested!!!! 10. what? 11. have you even examined the debug ???? its already there. 12. leaderboards are still being fixed. 13. already suggested. anything else?

do they do a bean patterned pants? I think its an idea but theres only so many colours and i think everyone is going to want to have light greens, greens, and dark greens, unless you spend all your time in cherno...

cant even see the text, but what ive taken from it is that you should probably go and play MineZ some more, then try copy paste more features from it to dayz.

TL;DR

obviously half the people in here have not seen the leaderboards working but, ill say you have a long way to go mr '9 days'... there are people with +100 hours logged in thier current life the last time i saw it up and running, 64 hours was the base line. your dayz do not count only in game time racked up. I had 19dayz, 64 1/2 hours logged when i crashed a chopper while refuling it... what a way to end. that got me just to the bottom of the leaderboard in 14th place and i was knocked off withing a week so im guessing the baseline now to be around 70-80 hours of in game logged time just to see your name in lights...
