everyone saying 'hurr durr sandy arma clearly does melee' presents either a proximity triggered animation and damage script or a context-menu interaction the former is useless to a player, betraying ARMA's entirely skill dependant style the latter is useful for stealthing, nothing else

@bla&c yes, and no it should not be changed, especially now zeds can lose track of their prey @publik gonna have to link the exact post proving me wrong, cause all I can be arsed with in that 23 page thread are the dancing crusaders (awesome) and scrolly-wheel 'melee' interactions (worse than useless for fighting zeds)

1) ARMA cannot do melee 2) afaik this is ultimately the objective, but it's an alpha and the debug monitor is valuable for pinning down bugs people like myself will be unaffected: I keep a diary of my kills and deaths (not just numerical - each is detailed) - in maybe 150 hours (five weeks of addiction) I have killed 38 players, been killed 13 times, died to glitches eight times, died to zeds four times and the respawn button twice 3) I prefered it back in 1.5.7 (iirc) when zeds spawned 'too much' everywhere, thousands didn't :( 4) in my experience, smokes' radius of effect is too small and the throw animation takes too long for a lone player to safely decouple himself from his train smokes can troll chaps stuck in one-door buildings or to save a player stuck in a tent in stary, otherwise they're fail

a friend was spawned 22km north west of 000,000 so you might be onto something, but not while bugs like that exist

I'm sorry arseassin, no matter how good your wank tastes in your own mouth, when you spit it in my eye I still think your idea is shit

learn to use the search function in response (to the tune of westminster bells): NO NO NO NO, NO NO NO NO, NONO NONO NONO makes team size way too important - right now a lone gunman poses a threat to my dozen man team, give us revives and we can cream anyone without fear

weapons are already nerfed as fuck: I just shot a guy in the face at 75yd with the DMR: that's a 7.62 NATO round in the face: the 7.62 NATO was regarded as inhumane, shooting someone with one was arguably a war crime and the the victim? stopped dropped and rolled, I had to shoot him twice more nerf weapons any further and destroy PvP completely

ZOMBIES ARE NOT DEAD IN DAYZ 'honesty twinkles in his eye'? you make me sick I honestly don't know how we're meant to see into people's pockets and count their rounds, but apart from that you can do all this already: find binocs, learn to recognise guns, be patient enough to observe your target's movements and judge for yourself

no the only npcs in dayz are zombies

the MP5 SD6 is the only option if you want to remain undetected by players: the M4 SD can be pinpointed from 100 yards, the MP5 SD6 is only audible from 20 yards or less the M9SD is a good choice, but is too inaccurate to warrant such rare ammo, imo ideally you want to not kill any zeds and if your overwatch spots anyone they can be dispatched without aggroing any

necessary also, halos

conformists with no imagination

humanity > 0? respawn as a spoiled brat whinging on the dayzmod forum

but bjarn this isn't a glitch, this is you getting tackled by a zed that was captain of his high school rugby team

I can now get headshots at 150m with my MP5 SD6, but it's a 1/3 chance and the target ahs to be slow/stationary so the DMR and PDW stay in my hands while the MP5 sits in my pack gathering ammo even though it's barely useful I can't drop the MP5: my team has found five, in a cumulative 1000 hours of play so yeah, when a weapon is less common than GPS and has only 50% higher spawn chance than NVGs it's rare enough and a note on ammo: the M4 SD and MP5 SD CANNOT fire subsonic rounds - both guns MUST fire full grain ammunition - for reasons the AKS 74UB [besshumniy] fires subsonic rounds

YES bandits preying on fresh spawns are imbeciles, take maks from their prey and ruin their sport while remedying the inane antics of so many nubs

most of us think zeds are far too easy to deal with so you can keep crying or you can harden the fuck up

learn to pay attention to zombies, to not aggro them and to run immediately when you do angry nub is angry and a nub

5) you swam with a tiny bit of paper and held onto it? have a medal your character is swimming fully clothed with a full pack, full pockets, an assault rifle and a sidearm you know why he drops it? because otherwise he will drown (PS your gear is still there, it's just under the water)

ARMA isn't very RAM hungry, 2GB will be fine at a stretch the problem is the ancient CPU and the lack of GPU new computer? new computer

I tried every single angle to explain why the questions raised by strangers in DayZ are vital to the experience you tried to pretend that a magical power to make bestest friends with anyone anytime wouldn't affect that at all and now you call me deluded

this has got me twice: both times were on fresh spawns back in 1.5.x: I had never fired my gun, aggroed a zed or been shot at in either life: I just needed to find a server with >5fps the other day (1.6.1) it started buggering a friend who was DCing and re-Cing lots because the server was giving him 5fps on his brand new spawn but was fine for everyone else after half an hour of bullshit the timer finished only to leave him unable to stand - he was clearly having some kind of seizure down on the forest floor so I shot him in the head and solved the fps and timer glitches
