This is a horrible idea. This game is already a marathon simulator, why should I have to take longer? "Make the map feel bigger" you say... if this map isnt big enough for you why not ask for a map expansion? Add onto the map, rather than just make it take longer to cross our current one.

Youre using the makarov *derp*

So... none of my friends are on... I decide, "Guess I'll play solo for a bit" I join up on a server and there's a downed heli right infront of me. Nothing decent (mk240 mod 0 w/o Ammo), I move on. 150m down the road - Another downed helicopter - FN Fal + 1 mag, I leave it. 20m away is a little red car in very usable condition. I drive it for about 15 seconds when I spot an ATV near a tree! I tuck the little car away in the forest and then loot the atv (tons of guns and stuff, but none that I wanted) so then I tucked the ATV in a another forest. "Server is restarting in 2 minutes!" says the server. I leave and take a 15 minute break and return to the server. I log in, and sitting infront of me is a downed helicopter (fresh restart) - I Take a bison sd, and 5 mags from this chopper. I leave an FN Fal + 2 mags that were also on that chopper My quick run to the southeast barracks of the NW airfield proved uneventful, and not worth the couple minutes that it took. On my way to Kabanino I'm searching through the fields and I see another freaking downed chopper. I stock up on medical supplies, but don't pick up any of the 20 stanag + 10 stanag SD mags from the ammunitions box. So far, I'm feeling pretty damn lucky, and pretty damn good. Something this great has never happend to me! 2 vehicles, 4 choppers, great guns, all in a 30 minute timespan? No way! Anywho, I travel about 350m southeast and I pass kabanino, I'm in a field that I was pretty sure I had seen choppers spawn in from previous weeks of playing, but I thought surely... after all of this... no way, my head would fucking explode. Yet... There int he middle of the field, sat another downed helicopter!!! My heart is racing. I've never had luck like this. I had found 3 of the 5 chopper spawns on this server, all after a fresh restart! So I leg it over real quick and start looting. This is when I wish I had friends on... because I found an AS50 (had one in my bag already) and an L85A2 AWS... yea... If only a buddy was there to hold that AS50 and Bison for me, but alas I dropped a couple medical supplies from the previous chopper and I am currently holding the L85, Bison, and AS50 so that I can give my buddy one of them! All in all, this is one of the best dayz of DayZ I will ever have. I know rule #1 of this game is not to get attatched to your gear, and I won't, but who doesn't love finding this stuff? x) I never would have thought that one day I would have to choose between such juicy loot, but holy shit was it an incredible feeling to see 5 choppers

:D Very nice.

They are both sitting in seperate forests (covered in pine needles I suppose) and when a couple of my buddies get on we can mess around with em a bit :D

everyone's butt hurts but yours? or is it the other way around?

He was possibly just knocked unconscious... not dead.

That is an epic base... too bad it wont' be there long now :/

3 fps is an overstatement. I went to the arma 2 beta version 95168 and now every server I log into I have 2 or 3 fps.. Before updating I was on version 94945 and it was just about perfect. I tried to update to 95208 but for some reason my game wouldn't recognise the installation, and there are hardly any servers with it running anyway. What version should I install? Please give me a link if it isnt on http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

I can't successfully install 95208. I run it just like I do every other beta patch install that I've done, but I'm unable to join any server running 95208.

I'm not sure... but just yesterday I found "Civilian Clothing" next to a downed chopper so I assumed somebody looted Camo Clothing, or a Ghillie. However, I didnt see it, so maybe not.

This has been suggested over and over, so I thought I would derp a bit and open a new thread! hazzah!! When I'm full sprinting through the biggest cities in the game (Cherno & Elektro) and I'm actually TRYING to get zombies to follow me for the sake of fun or to drag them into an unlucky passerby I am lucky if I can even get a chain of 15 zombies. I am literally running into zombies faces so I aggro, and then keeping them well in my LOS so that they dont lose aggro and all I can find is 15 or 20 zombies!? Come on.. SO many people make forum posts about how ammo should be rare, or zombies should be harder to kill and I think that is bullshit. Let's just get more zombies! If I decide to run through a city like Cherno I should have 40+ zombies on me within the first five minutes, and holy crap that would be an incredible experience (take a moment and picture yourself infront of a horde, your ass right infront of the snarling bastards). Pros: Fun Ammunition Intensive Appeases the nooblets that want ammo to be rare Cons: Possible Server Side Strain Possible client FPS drop So what do you think? Please try to keep this clean and respectful, thanks. TL:DR - More zombies equals a better Chernarus

I agree, there should be an auto-run... this has got me thinking... can I make my own auto run on my logitech g700? I think so

TL:DR please? :( If I wasnt so tired I would read the whole thing, but a short and simplified version maybe? Thank you

My thoughts exactly.

Yes, but client and server peformance is improving every week it seems, every new beta patch exc. True.. Maybe a "Mob Mentality" mechanic could be implemented far in the future of this mod.

Make sure you're joining servers with the same version of Dayz and Beta

It's all about immersion and this adds a great deal to it +1

I would like this... except that... during the winter in real life, I really would not want to get on the game and be in winter... I fucking hate the cold awful weather and playing in dessert/spring maps is such a needed relief from not feeling my hands/face/arms/feet when I go outside

Screenshot Competition "Dayz Meme" addition: 1) Wear aviators 2) Stand on a steap hill 3) Lean towards the hill, as if you need to in order to not fall 4) Take screenshot TIP: The more people doing this in one screenshot, the better!

I agree, very useful for anybody who doesnt want a minor slip up to cause major repurcutions.
