Fraggle (DayZ)

Hey Delta, I'm not playing until tonight but I have an AS50 I could offer you.

I meant good from my point of view, not the snipers. Maybe I should have said popular or obvious.

Look at my head. What do you reckon I choose every time?

Even the best snipers run when frags start flushing them out.

This post defines optimism. Have some beans.

Hey they will!

I dread to think how many hours I've played and I've still only seen one Mk. 48. I must have one!

Get your facts straight. The total number of unique players equals one player per game serial key (a game sold). Players in the last 24 hours means how many of these unique players has logged on to play in the last 24 hours. More ill informed bollocks.

FFS. These post are fucking pointless. Either submit an official complaint with server details and time or STFU. If you read even the slightest bit of an article by Rocket, BI or press messages from Battleye you'd know that they are working on it. There's even a message in game now to make you aware of this. Do you think Rocket will read your thread over dinner and think "oh yeah, that's a good idea, I wasn't aware of the rampant hacking going on". Either quit playing until the standalone is released or try and be patient. No ones forcing you to play this free mod. What's that? you bought Arma just to play DayZ? Well, no one made you.

Yup, I found one just yesterday. It's pretty cool too. P.S - I was told the torch on it doesn't work but I haven't tried it at night yet.

I'd take the AKM. The ammo is a bit rarer but still fairly plentiful. Also it's a good all rounder.

Lol, your post plus your signature made me chuckle. Much love.

I was about to suggest your first tactic, I like to just find a quiet spot and sit and watch for a bit. If there's a sniper he'll give away his position eventually. Or you can just apprach the good sniper positions from the flank or rear and pop them in the back of the head, that's more fun. Sometimes if I have a rough idea where they are I'll chuck a frag or smoke in their direction. They shouldn't see where it's come from and most of the time it just sends them into a blind panic (especially the frags, M203 is perfect for this). They usually just stand up and start running at the first sign of explosives. Edit* - At night flares really piss them off. It ruins there position for ages.

P.S - take a look here: http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/Equipment DayZ wiki will be your best friend while you learn the game.

Yup. A main weapon takes up 10 inventory slots, a sidearm takes up 5. There's bigger backpacks, the largest has 24 slots. Supermarkets are the best place to find them but probably the most dangerous way too. If your lucky you'll find a dead player and be able to take his. The Arma inventory system is the hardest thing to get used to at first (apart from braking your legs every 5 mins), once you get the hang of it, it works pretty well though.

No prob's, that was good timing!

Also the Zeds will go to where they heard the shot fired from, not after you. Unless your still in the same spot.

I've got beans if any girls are interested. How about you come back to mine and I'll crack open that vintage can of sardines? Hard to resist isn't it?

I'm no bandit, I'm a medic. I just happen to think people should be able to play DayZ however they like. If that includes giving everyone the location of a camp to cause a deathmatch then good luck to them.

Yes, bravo indeed. I can't think of any other posts that are written as well or make such a valid point.

Finally, someone who knows what they're talking about. It's quite refreshing, have some beans.

Agreed. I would put it down mainly to 3 things: Duping: This means people don't have to worry about ammo or their gear so can just run around blasting the shit out of everything without a care in the world. Lack of imagination: When people do get a decent gear, many seem to struggle with the sandbox style gameplay. Without a clear goal they just can't think of anything else to do. Lack of patience: For me, DayZ is a game of patience and tactics. I think some people were attracted to the game expecting something else and now they have it they don't really want to spend time doing anything else other than running around the cities having firefights. BTW : I don't include proper bandits in the above as it's a genuine playstyle that makes the game a hell of a lot more exciting.

I'd like to see the "littlebird" introduced as a heli.

Nice one. I've got the feeling the medical thread might be getting some requests in that area soon, I think I'll pass this time.

Fair enough. I just think you could have had more fun killing them on your own. You could even have started sniping them from the mainland.
