I said I did my time. I didn't say I just got out. Read slower :P -

Had I gone to school for computer program, I honestly would work in the gaming industry. I went to school for kinesiology and train athletes though. I'm sorry, but how are developers ever suppose to improve their games if no one gives feedback/criticism? If we all just sit here silently, how are the devs ever suppose to know whats wrong with their games? -

The 1 tent thing is to combat hoarding and loot cycle farming. If you're going to allow unlimited tents, then loot cycle needs to be nerfed HARD. Items respawn after 2-3 hours if you're going to allow endless tents. The main problems killing this game are duping and loot cycle farming. You can spend 2 hours in a store or military spawn and get a ridiculous amount of items since the respawn is 2-10 mins. We talk about realism, but why is no one mentioning this? -

Good posts guys :) And to correct a few things, I'm not mad and I've only been sniped 2 or 3 times on this game. I move constantly in the woods, and I've killed many snipers after they fire their first shot and I know where they are. Seems most snipers in games can't handle "zig zagging at varying speed" targets. Just a few days ago, I took out a sniper with a hatchet after he fired at me about 80m away. Just went zig zag tree to tree until I was in his face. As for the "it's alpha" kiddies. I know it's alpha. I know there are lots of problems. That doesn't change the fact that we all should be giving feedback on things that will make the game better. The problem I have with "its only alpha" kiddies, is they give no helpful feedback on how to make the game better. They're happy with a broken game just because "its alpha". Why aren't you trying to help make a better game. And as I said, I'd prefer to make these guns/ammo super rare, but until duping and infinite ammo are fixed, it's pointless to nerf drop rates. And if the guns, aren't removed, there should be some changes to them. NO auto fire on any sniper gun. Increase all audio levels 2x-3x the range. No more ammo converts for dmr<->m24. Every shot has bright muzzle flash. There needs to be more consequence for pulling the trigger on a sniper gun. But anyways, I'm trying to help make this a better game. Why aren't you guys? -

Oh look, another "its only alpha" troll. What other excuses you got? You must never want the game to be better huh? -

I was going to suggest that they just have their drop chance lowered by a large %, but with duping and loot cycle farming, it pointless. Once duping is fixed (which it never will be) and loot cycle is fixed (just put every spawn spot on a 1+ hour timer), then we could lower drop rate. -

I agree somewhat. I guess games still have a ways to go for sniper mechanics though. -

CZ isn't auto fire so you need to re-adjust each shot. Means more realistic. The M14 isn't really a sniper rifle imo as there's not zoom and range isn't as good. And since when do women have testes? -

I know it's a video game, so I usually let it go. BUT, everyone keeps mentioning "realism" with this game, so why not change one of the most unrealistic things about the game? And i've already did my time in the army, but I was CID. You're welcome kid. -
And it really pisses me off when ppl just spout out "just get headshots" are you playing the same fucking game I am? cause you can only get headshots in buildings or on non-aggro'd zeds. I've never seen anyone consistently get headshots on aggro'd zeds. It's always center body shots
-
imo, the pdw or glock, just cause bigger ammo clips. rev/1911 are still decent ONLY because infinite ammo bug. I really wish would could put our axe in 2ndary. I'd rather just be able to switch to that

Looking for active players to group with nights EST
lnfighter posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I've been playing a couple weeks and looking to group with others now. Been getting bored being solo so much. Things I do now are vehicle hunting/reparing, crash site hunting, travel to towns haven't been to yet, bandit hunting in cities, some farming. Main thing that keeps the game entertaining is being with other people though. I just died recently so starting fresh spawn. I'll be along the south coast until I get resupplied again or find a vehicle. skype nicspov steam inic81 -

I noticed this too. Took me a long time to figure out how to aim this thing. Although I didn't try zeroing it, if it even can be.

omg, i thought it was just me! I only played an hour today before work, but I came across a heli crash and pulled out my revolver to clear it. I had 2 run at me and I shot each once thinking they'll go down. They kept coming and I shot each again... still didnt go down! I just spam fired at this point since both were in my face hitting me. Each of the zeds at the site needed a good 3-4 shots to bring down. I used half my ammo, even with the .45->1911 ammo bug trick. I thought I was just lagging, but now I see that everyone is having same issue. Well this sucks for zed killing. All pistols are pretty much useless unless you get headshots. Looks like I'll be wielding my axe a lot more now. I could use my rifle, but it's too loud.

3 times on 3 different servers now, everyone was teleported to the middle of nowhere, dropped 30 feet, then right when you land, you're back where you were a few seconds ago, but dead. I just saw a full 64man server get wiped. I just lost 3+ hours of fixing up a pickup truck and lots of loot from heli sites i've been searching and looting. Bugs i can deal with. Hackers I can't

hacking scripts seem rampant today
lnfighter replied to lnfighter's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
whats the difference? using scripts vs hacking? -
Since I've pretty much got all the gear I want, I've been fixing up vehicles. I feel like I've just been wasting my time though. So far I've fixed 5 ATVs, 1 ATZ, 2 bicycles, 1 pickup truck. 1 ATV was stolen from me, 2 ATVs got bugged on the docks and killed me, the rest disappeared randomly when I rejoined the server. I save the vehicles whenever I get out too. But everytime I rejoin the server, they just vanish. and I doubt they're being stolen

-Increase Primary weapons audio ranges by 50% -Increase zed audio aggro by 50% -Once a player has zed aggro, they get the concussion debuff for 1 minute. If they log out during this time, they are hit with a 6 minute knock out when relogging. REASONS: PvP is rampant because there's literally no consequence for shooting. This needs to change. I enjoy pvp as much as the next guy but it's getting old not having any danger from shooting. Just last night I shot 3 guys with a Lee in Cherno and got ZERO zed aggro. I was shocked! And honestly disappointed that I was in no danger from shooting such a loud gun. Other changes: -Inventory overhaul: Since I've figured out that double clicking works, it's been less of a pain, but it's still a pain. We need a faster way to loot/dump items. -Decrease spawn rate on high grade weapons We all talk about realism in this game. Well, realistically, we'd all mostly only have pistols, shotguns, melee weapons and an occasional auto-rifle in a post-apoc society. Right now, how many of us could just go get an M4 or .50 cal sniper rifle? I know I can go get a pistol or shotgun at the local gun shop though. -Fix the damn ammo bug! This will greatly reduce how much we shoot! This is another big factor of why people pvp. There's no loss of ammo since we can just relog and get 4 full ammo clips again. We all basically have infinite ammo. This is killing the whole immersion and realistic part of the game. -Skins change (optional) based on actions done. Every 1k zombie kills, you get a new skin or something. Same with every 10 player kills, etc. Same with every 5 vehicles fixed, etc. I'll add more ideas later.

Some changes I'd like to see. You too?
lnfighter replied to lnfighter's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's not punishing bandits, its make it so firing a weapon actually has a REAL consequence since right now, there is zero. And if you think just avoiding C and E is avoiding bandits, you haven't been playing the game long. C and E are pretty quiet these days and most snipers are now at Stary, NWA and BanZ. Also another change I'd like to see is zeds run in the most direct path to players when aggro'd and no longer stop before hitting you. Or when they hit you, make it so you can't sprint run for 15 secs. -

What it seems to me is they decreased the hearing of zeds to almost nothing. And increased the vision to superman. Zeds are now deaf hawkeyes. -

lnfighter replied to lnfighter's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I sort of agree with adding more zeds, BUT if they fix the infinite ammo bug, then they need to make the zed spawn rate much longer. So when you clear out a town and just used 30 bullets, you don't have another 30 zeds spawning 90 seconds later. They should increase it to 10+ mins, but ONLY if the ammo bug is fixed. -
New Anti-Bandit here! Seeking tips on city warfare
lnfighter posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm just hunting in cherno/electro lately and having a blast. I've basically been hunting bandits or just anyone who's killing newbies and being a jerk. Yesterday I killed 5 guys in the clock tower in cherno and helped some newbies get their gear after the tower campers killed them. What are some tips for city fighting? I prefer cities because it's more fun with the landscape and cover available. It's also more close up fighting while any "fighting" in the outside cities is really just who can snipe who first. I'm not into sniping personally. I prefer the up close action. So what I've been doing is finding a secure place in the city and dropping my bag there and make that area my "home base" I go to for supplies and such. Have to be careful though as I've come back and my bag was gone either from server glitch or possibly another player. The reason I go with no bag is it makes me stand out much less and I think a lot of players assume I'm another zombie, unless I'm full sprinting. Also when prone, I don't stand out at all since people just scan for a big backpack. Any other tips/tricks for city warfare, let me know!
