    Edge of the map

    The actual playable map is the area shown in the in-game map. The edge of the map is a very distinct line on the ground. Beond it there is no vegetation of any kind. The edge of the map is popular stash for camps and vehicle hoarding.
  2. Indeed. It would be amazing if you could also destroy a part of a road with it. Taliban tactics to the rescue!

    Bandit Skin on Spawn

    Same thing. Spawn with bandit wraps even though my humanity is +500. After five minutes or my screen flashes and automatic change to 1st person. When I go back to 3rd person I´m neutral again.

    this "update" sucks....

    Well this spawn on coast thing explains why Cherno and Elektro have been such deathmatch areas since the update. Even on low pop servers everyone seemed to be a either sniping or rampaging in the cities.

    Start Gear - Weapon Missing

    Fortunately hatchets are pretty easy to find. Just run to the neares industrial spawn or some barn. You´ll probably find it right away. And yes I mean run. There´s no point in sneaking because zombies have to walk inside. Zeds are easy to lose once you learn the tricks. Plus you don´t have anything to loose as a fresh spawn.

    Dogs in DayZ

    It´s an "old" video from either 1.7.2.3 or 1.7.2.4 eras. Just a hacker making "funny" video. I don´t think dogs are in the game yet.

    Military Base Camps

    I don´t think it would work. It would just be another high yield military loot location. Vehicles would be taken within 10 minutes and anything else would just be looted like anything else on the map. Staying there and trying to make it groups base would be suicide. Once it became to public knowledge that a clan or group was keeping it as their own they would perish soon to one of the following: -snipers -server hoppers -hackers.

    Reading the tips and tactics.

    Its intended. The post referring to starting with makarov are old. These days its just the things you mentioned.

    Second Opinion on Hackers

    Well if it was my server I would ban them and post a ticket to BattleEye. Thats very suspicious indeed and if they truly went straight to the impossible find... I´d say they are using some sort of "I-see-dead-people" script. Of course thats just suspicious but still...

    How can my little brother play?

    You need to buy another copy of Arma Combined operations to get a new cd key. Split the cost of that too and you are even :) Here´s a link to a very helpful post. Follow that guide and you´ll be able to switch characters just by doubleclicking. It seems complicated but just start doing it point by point and you´ll see that its actually very simple. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/32775-multiple-dayz-accounts-useful-for-shared-computers/

    Make survival a challenge

    If the zeds were to have a high chance of infecting players when they attack they would be a bigger threat. Lets say there could be a 30% chance of infection on hit that would kill the player within 24 hours. You would be forced to find antibiotics to cure it. That would make me nervous of the zeds because a deadly infection would force me to go to city hospitals.

    Make survival a challenge

    I agree very much. Right now surviving is just about remembering to eat and drink while looking for vehicles and camps with your group. Last three lives now I´ve managed to have high-end gear the same day I started the life. All my deaths excluding the re-spawn suiciding by gang rape were because I got a bullet in my head. Right now I have everything I need and I have no interest in going into cities or towns. In my opinion tents and vehicle storage should be removed until duping ends. My group raided a 10 plus tent camp that had ridiculous amount of very rare high-end weaponry and equipment. I mean there were around 8 Mk48 mod 0, 4 BAF AS50 antimaterial rifles, 4 M4A1 CCO SDs, 3 rangefinders, more ammunition to any weapon than I have used in my entire DayZ history and the list goes on and on... It is just ridiculous how easy it is to get the "rarest of rare" weapons. AS50s to me are just as plentifull as revolvers and M1911s. It´s a pity this game is so easy. At first I thought to myself that this is awesome. I had never played a game so exciting. But then I got the hang of it. Just ignore the zeds a get your loot. Right now the zeds are not a threat in any given way. Loosing them is very easy when you know the tricks. This game has to be made more challenging and surviving oriented or I´ll lose interest. More surviving, less just looting.

    Hack or no hack? (first time in DayZ)

    To avoid losing stuff to your backpack always make sure you have room for your equipment before doing anything in you gear menu. Main weapons take up 10 slots in pack and sidearms take 5. Note that if you move a weapon from your gear every related ammunition moves with it. So if you want to put an AKM in you backpack and you have 2 clips for it, make sure you have 12 (10mainweapon+2mags) slots open. Otherwise you´ll either lose your weapon or a mag. The figure above your backpack menu shows the number of open slots. Lets say the number is 5/20. It means theres 5 slots open of total of 20 usable slots. Hope this helps.
  14. I think that you are not able to remove another players skin. You can loot a skin in their inventory but only way to take ghillie off is to change it on yourself alive.

    Range finding with mil dots

    I believe that you have to be fully zoomed in to use the mildots. As in x12 magnification not the x3 magnification. quote: "To estimate the range to a standing player/target (height = 1.8m) while using the AS50 with 12x magnification, use the following formula: r = 1375/h (r is the target's range in meters and h is the target's height in mils). A standing player that is 5 mils tall will be 275 m from the AS50 operator." Look it up on DayZ wiki.
