@Mike on US 2135 Dallas... The beast of Cherno.
Swoosh Bear replied to Big Balls MCgee's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
That was truly beautiful. The next time I charge into Cherno with nothing but my bandage and asshole, I'll think of Mike and be inspired by his bravery. -
Where did Global Chat go?
Swoosh Bear replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Some servers still have it enabled. I think US #500 is one of them. -

DayZ rescue mission with TMW goes wrong. Video included.

I shouldn't be alive. This is the story of a faithful little survivor against a big, expansive ocean with nothing but his wits. It was dusk on the server US 922, my home server. After searching the coast north of Berezino for tent and vehicle camps I found a small boat spawned on the coast. After a short raid into the Berezino industrial district, I had one jerry can to fill up my new boat. After doing so, I got it unstuck and started sailing south. But just then, my mother came in and had me go do some chores. I decided I should be safe if I stay logged in, since there are only 5 other people online. I pointed the nose of my boat towards shore, cut off the engine, and went AFK in my boat about 15 meters from shore. I came back to find my boat traveling 10 kph pointed away from the coast sailing into the horizon. I quickly turned around to find that I could barely see the coast. I looked at my grid coords... I was past the X coords, 153. So far past it that when I started heading west again, my GPS was stuck on the coords X 153, Y 64. I was so far out that it wouldn't even show my progress or my cursor on the map. It took me 10 minutes of sailing before I ran out of gas and decided this is the end. I got out and began to swim back since I had: Coyote Backpack AS50 L85 AWS M9 Rangefinder Every tool in the toolbelt I started to swim and after a good 10 minutes, my cursor finally appeared on my GPS and I was making progress towards shore based on the grid system. And for some odd reason, my guy was swimming by himself, even when i was alt+tab'd out. So after a good 40 minutes of swimming, I finally hit shore with 4k blood from starving, and EVERYTHING still in my inventory somehow. Don't ask me how. Don't. The things I don't understand about this. 1. How did my boat turn around and drift out to sea going 10 kph, its top speed when driving it. The engine WASN'T EVEN ON and it didn't use any gas. 2. How is my guy swimming by himself, even when alt+tab'd out. 3. How didn't I drop any items like my gun or pack after swimming like 2 km? I really shouldn't be alive.

Tired of looting NWAF blind with no overwatch?

Dayz dream land..too much
Swoosh Bear replied to Helpless Girl's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Dayuuuuummmmmm. That's cold, bro. -
Ok. Well I've come up with this pretty good loot route that's great if you spawn near Kemenka, Kamorovo, or Balota. Your chances of seeing someone are pretty slim and you can get looted up with a good primary within an hour at the most. http://img33.imagesh...yzlootroute.png I am not totally sure about the spawn points but those are the ones I remember off the top of my head. You can also keep looting more barns up north if you want. They are marked with a green circle. It's not a bad idea to go north to the grocery store that I marked since you could maybe find an ALICE pack there. I take no credit for making the map. Just the stuff drawn on with paint. You can find the full map here: http://dayzdb.com/map#3.089.124 Good day to you all.

Why you should never trust an unarmed man...

Obviously read -
We do not speak of that mountain. Ever.

People shooting unarmed people, why?
Swoosh Bear replied to kitta's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This isn't Fallout. People gonna do what they want to do. Simple solution, avoid human contact. And yes, I shoot on sight at anything. -
Found a vehicle. Don't know if hacked or not.
Swoosh Bear replied to faded's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Ya I know. I was wondering if it was the same kind of car. After looking at the picture, yes it was the same one I saw. Sweet. I killed a hacker and lived. -

Swoosh Bear replied to faded's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Does it look like a SUV that is used by Makarov's forces in the Modern Warfare games? If so then I saw the same kind. I even sniped out the driver. Hacker got what he had coming for him xD -
How about a DayZ concert of Epicness?

Last bump since it seemed no one was on the forums last night at like 3 AM -_- This can really help some people out. -
Good Loot Route for teh Newbies
Swoosh Bear replied to Swoosh Bear's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
That is an option but this route is for if you're fed up with getting KoS by people at the airfield or wherever else you're looking for a gun. Your best chance of seeing someone along my route is at the barn above Kamorovo. -

Shameless bump. I spent a hard working 5 minutes on that map. xD -
QQ more. TL;DR Get friends to play with and problemo solved. No one wants to fuck with a squad of 4 armed dudes running around. Most people don't at least.

I played on your server. Great server. Fast load times and a moderate amount of people on. I would donate but I have no money atm. Good server though.

I can say say that I've held one but haven't drank one.

That is what DayZ is happening. As you all know, pvp is becoming more so, shoot on sight. This is directed at the those who don't do the latter. You few people left who always try to desperately yell, "Friendly! Don't shoot!", and only get the response of a bullet to the brain, you will become bandits. Yes. I am not kidding you. You WILL become bandits. Why? Because after being killed 5 more, 10 more, or 20 more times, you will realize there is no other way in DayZ anymore and that you must become a bandit, shoot on sight out of necessity. Don't cry about this, don't cry about how it ruins the immersion if its shoot on sight all the time. Don't cry period. Read on. My point is DayZ is a rapidly changing game with a rapidly changing playerbase which calls for a rapid change in players' behavior. You can't be attached to your old ways. DayZ is changing, has always been changing, and there is nothing you can do about it. It's the way I think Rocket intended it to be. You have to adapt to survive.

Finally someone who understands.
