When would you fire first as a friendly? ( scenario and poll)
chaitin replied to thelonewarrior's topic in General Discussion
C, especially if they are camo geared and carrying m4 etc. -
The 30 second logging out timer has drawn some criticism but it works well to prevent combat logging. I just wanted to share our tactic for the new system, we normally play in a group of 3-4 people and when its time to log off one person stays behind on guard duty until all the others disappear. This way you are not completely helpless and only one of you is logging unprotected. It also adds a strange matrixesque vibe as you watch your friends log out.

For all the whiners complaining that they cant find any loot....
chaitin replied to overdosed (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I have not found decent gear in fire station school etc for ages but the residential buildings are a gold mine of fire axes shotguns and mosins. These were some rough apartment blocks :) -
With a long range scope I would go mosin, with no scope the m4 is probably the better weapon. The fx pistol makes up for the mosins small clip and less close range usefulness, I feel the fx beats the magum since there are fx attachments (red dot is nice) and a 15 round clip size.

so i had a blast so far but this is killing my fun

I found that turning off my antivirus (avast) has stopped my desync problem quite a bit. If I see something that I think looks server related e.g. zombies rubber banding players punching air near me then I log. I do not consider it server hopping or combat logging if the server is clearly having issues. I remember climbing to the top of a fire station once then appearing at the bottom of the stairs being hit by a zombie and unconscious. -
Erm why horses? I mean zombie animals could make some sense except only certain diseases (zoonosis?) Cross the species barrier. Dogs would probably be more effective and pigs are probably more biologically likely.

We NEED some way to identify heros and bandits.

Gas mask, bal helmet and TTsKO gear are just good camo. If being a "hero" involves wearing a red hoodie then its going ro be a short life. -
Its a difficult balance issue and its one I am sure the devs will get round to soon. We have seen z numbers rising so that's a good sign. I think they should be somewhere in between the sprint and the jog, a well fed player or one without any gear should be able to out sprint a z but a half starved person carrying a mountain backpack rifle etc should definitely be slower. I am more excited to see increased numbers, some of the best times I had in the mod involved dealing with the aftermath of a lee enfield round in cherno

I wad playing last night and reached the power station in Elektro after a long loot trip through the city. I was reasonably well equipped with a magnum, backpack etc and picked up a shotgun speed loader in the base of the fire station. I climbed the tower and had emerged on the second floor....and death. Screen went black with you are dead message, I did not hear a shot or see anyone and I was in 3rd person so did not see a bullet impact etc. So is it possible someone sniped me and I died instantly or was this some sort of glitch? Welcome any opinions.

Its not army loot but I have found a mosin rifle in a residential building before.

How come a lot of people have working M4/Mosin's?
chaitin replied to andrestor's topic in General Discussion
I found 2 mosin in a residential tennament building by the dock in Cherno. About 2 floors up. -
There are some serious implications from eating humans, just look up kuru for instance.

I just feel guilty as the poor guy had done nothing wrong. Well except running down the middle of the road which in Dayz is punishable by firing squad.

+1 I do this at the start of every session and it makes the game look much cleaner. When I spawn its like there is vaselene on the screen.

Yeah he was a little bit pissed off. More so when we next met up and I proceeded to eat his can of tuna in front of him.:)
