  1. Aye, those first few hours are some of the best gameplay in DayZ.
  2. I thought about it, but I only have MSI afterburner and it records pretty shittily. Also recording myself dieing (which I fully expected to do) didn't seem like fun.
  3. I think helicopters should be able to fly over the coast and trigger a win screen if its full of gas and fully repaired. Because what are you actually going to do with a Helicopter in a zombie apocalypse? GTFO most likely.
  4. I found a Mp5 with 3 M1911 mags. I think someone is messing with me. Do any of you guys do this?
  5. 1 boar gives you several pieces of meat. A cow is a gold mine. You don't need to find that many animals.
  6. I was in the super-market at cherno, I'm in the main room behind the deli counter when I hear the back door open. I take up position at a corner with my M1911. I hear footsteps, I peek around the corner just in time to see a guy with a double barrelled shotgun pop open a soda he found on the ground. I got startled and shot him in the head. The pepsi got EVERYWHERE.
  7. Once you have a water bottle and hunting gear you're done surviving. Anything past that is just pushing what you can do.
  8. I stood in the ATC tower at the southern Airfield and watched as a zombie by the deerstand aggroed on me, and ran all the way to the ladder before I shot him. Zombies are glitchy.
  9. Watch out guys we got a Murdoch over here!
  10. I got the 14x because it was small enough to fit in my backpack but still had an okay sized screen, I can't imagine playing on a 11 inch screen D:
  11. M14x works just fine. Just turn off post-processing as it makes the screen do this wierd blurry sway thing.
  12. I brought this up in another thread but I wanted to flesh it out. Basically I would like to see cosmetic skins similar to Camo and Ghillie suits as lootable items. I'm talking things like Army ACU, the old Bandit outfits, Police/SWAT/Riot Team gear. Stuff that really makes you stand out. I could see groups working pretty hard to try and collect matching sets, especially if they are intend on role playing. This could also make smaller towns with super-markets more popular compared to Stary Sobarr and the NW Airfield.
  13. Hair extension loot drops? I like the way you think! In all seriousness I'd love to see more cosmetic loot drops that only spawn in residential areas. Stuff like US Army ACU, US Marine MULTICAM, Russian Paratrooper, Pilot flight suit, Police Uniform, SWAT Gear, Riot Gear...... Maybe people would camp places besidew NW Airfield and Stary Sobarr for reasons besides sniping new players.
  14. I think accelerating the Day Night cycle would add a lot to gameplay. As it is most servers tend to lose a signifigant amount of their population as people "Server Hop" to find a daylight server. By accelerating the day night cycle to something closer to GTA 4 or Just Cause 2 we lose a little but of realism, but gain some more dynamic gameplay as night fall and dawn suddenly become events that players don't see that often.
  15. Does Cry Engine 3 have the ability to render 225 km^2 maps seamlessly? (No load screens while traveling). Can its networking infastructure support a Hive and servers with +50 player slots? I honestly don't know, I haven't been watching the engine. But these are all things that most First Person Shooter render engines can't handle. They're designed for smaller more detailed spaces.
  16. So Six Updater justed updated my ARAMA 2 and DayZ. Now I can't join any servers. I'm stuck at "Waiting for Host" I see server chat and messages just fine though. I've manually updated the .dlls for Battleye but that didn't seem to work, any other suggestions?
  17. Then why don't you run through and loot everything? There's a fine balance between being cautious and just being slow. Not to mention crawling every where in Cherno just makes you sniper fodder.
  18. They take away our global chat, they take away our starting guns, now they want to take away our in-door navigation advantage? Have you tried spawning recently? If you aggo a zed you don't have any options BESIDES running in a building. And if its Elektro then chances are everything is wired up tight anyway.
  19. If there's no way to make your water pure then this idea is akin to "Oops you picked the wrong well! Have fun dieing slowly!" They would also need to make Anti-biotics spawn as often as pain killers.
  20. So long story short, I'm in a Super Market, and zombies are aggroed. After 15 dead zeds at the door I start to wonder, do zombies respawn while you are near by? Is it possible to actually clear an area? I realize I was probably just aggroing most of the town, but I was using an 1886 inside, the gun is fairly quiet.
  21. Thanks :-/ that kind of sucks though. I eventually stopped shooting and moved to the other part of the building long enough to lose aggro, but I was kind of hoping to clear the town.
  22. That's up to individual server admins. I think the Hive only cares if you're hacking, glitching, or exploiting.
  23. The real reason to avoid it is the high PvP activity. I was spawned on the coast litterally right across the railroad tracks from it. I took a few steps forward then got shot by a sniper. I respawn further down. Prone crawl my way to it, get inside. Find an AKM then got shot by a cross bow as I climbed down the ladder.
