Jaime (DayZ)

How about spawning zombies inside of the barracks, towers and hangars? Granted, they're easily taken care of, but shooting them makes noise and they'll deter hoppers. You're really vulnerable the first couple of seconds you log on. Thoughts?

Nr. 6. Always after a server decides to reset my character to the beach upon loging in. I don't mind dying to zombies or people, that stuff gives me a thrill! Servers acting up really get to me though. Tried to report that issue, but I'm unable to send feedback reports, I can't select my game version in the form. -_- Then I'm pretty much at stage 7.

I think you need to be around a minimum of 80 feet altitude before it's safe to jump. If you jump from too low a height the parachute doesn't have enough time to slow your descend.

It's at 1 hour and 5 minutes. What's going on? People should be dying more often. ;)

Fake ID's won't stop the Zeds from killing me, buddy.

Now that's actually a pretty funny movie!

Thanks! I was actually genuinely curious.

I was under the impression bases would be underground. One can't server hop into underground bases, you can only hop from the inside out, but then you risk being buried alive. I would love being able to break into other peoples bases. Perhaps make it impossible to log in and out at a base. Except for in a designated area.

Encountered the following when traveling towards and into Berenzino from the West. Was able to fix with the "shift numpad - flush command."

Thanks for the write up, well done!

Well, all I really want to see is that underground base stuff Rocket talked about in some of his interviews! I'm already drawing up blueprints in my head. It's going to be awesome!

Thanks for the info! This is fun stuff. :)

FYI, don't neglect your CPU by focussing on your videocard, DayZ (Arma2) is a very CPU demanding game.

Helcopter insertions via parachute... That's actually pretty cool.

Glitches, bugs, server restarts etc, all these factors I can deal with. I consider them part of the dangerous enviornment. The mod becomes boring fast due to tents and hackers. Both kill the worth of finding loot and your achievements. The first because you'll always have a high end gear stash to fall back on, do you guys feel as terrified of losing gear after your setup? The latter because all your skillfull playing, your hard earned gear you acquired after a daring raid on NWAF, your days spent being alive mean nothing if a hacker nukes a server. I consider this mod a success, though. Can't wait to play the standalone where these problems are ironed out.

Sometimes it's worth stating the obvious, but do you mean 'vaulting'? Press 'V'.

You're probably right. It's rather pathetic, really. That guy's like a crack junkie mugging people for cash to fuel his habbit.

Ages ago, in my personal Era of Noobishness I shot a guy at a Balotta hanger. I think he was either AFK or rummaging in his backpack, because I got the jump in him pretty good, he only got one shot off, which broke my leg, but I digress. I had a Makarov, standard pack and some shotgun shells. He had: Coyote pack NVG Rangefinder GPS Map Compass Toolbox M9SD MP5 M107 in his pack All medical supplies Cooked meat Let's just say I was one happy (and quickly paranoid) camper. I ran the Hell out of there and never looked back. Was able to survive for 20 days until one day I logged in and died because of a new patch. At that point I was actually glad to start over. Having all that gear can make the game boring.

I was on a server with side/global chat yesterday. Does that mean it was a private server? It did not have a password or anything.

No, you're really just that rude.

Calm down, why don't you? That was uncalled for...

Well, atleast the vid shows the parachutes work. Had a discussion with some clan buddies and they were adamant that they were not working. I guess they bailed out at to low altitude...

Did you logout right after getting the m4?

High-end gear + helicopter skills don't go hand in hand. Especially since helicopters have been only re-introduced last patch. I advise everyone to play the Arma2 ingame helicopter tutorial or create their own training mission in the editor (pretty cool and fun to do by itself).

The combination of the anocrym for screenshot and the way the Zed on the top of the stairs is holding his arm is kinda funny.
