Sins of a hacking gamer...
opticalshadow replied to DigitGreen (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
you deserved it. i mean needing to cheat in a game as easy as gta, idk why you even bothered coming here. -
yeah teh mp5sd i think has like a .38 chance or so to spawn. the firestations have good loot, but they are all near high pvp areas, the reason to go up north nowever is the NWAF has alot more loot spawns, meaning better chance for gear. and dispite the NWAF is one of the, if not, highest profile pvp area, your still better off there then cherno imo. but yes, you have to realize how rare the loot is even if it can sapwn there. i mean, the gun had under a 1% chance to spawn.

Event: Freeside Trading Co. Open Trading - 7/20 - 7/22
opticalshadow replied to Publik's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
you might want to sweeten the pot a little there, IMO the mp5sd, while a good weapon, doesnt come close to touching the value of any of those rifles. -
where are you going that takes an hour to get there, you can run across the map in less time then that.

Why do people just sit in the back of buildings?
opticalshadow replied to Mays (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
if you want to use that example you can, granted in the real battle there were around 7000 greek soldiers, not the 300 the movie claims. but you can also look at the battle of warsaw in ww2, where the ghetto held out for a month before the germen army crushed them, or when simo hayha with a hunting rifle fired on russian tropps, taking our everyoen from soldiers, to counter snipers, and entire special forces platoons. no matter what history lesson you want to use, when a force of any size is coming, and another force digs in, the force that dug in either delt a heavy blow or outright crushed the larger one. -
yeah ive lost some good gear, i find some loot just before heading to bed for the night, log off and its gone in the morning. generally now i stay logged in 30 minutes after finding something really good just to be safe.

if i hear sounds from other players, i order my men inside, we take flanking, choke point positions, where the enemy has to enter, facing our guns. if you came in a car or truck, he heared you before you saw the building. this is basic defence information. an unknown hostile force moves into an area, likely, the size and power of the force is also unknown. take the most defenceable position avalible, and try to put all the odds in your favor for an ambush, my group has survived much larger groups seiges, because proper defence made the assult not worth their effort, a dug in team with a choke point can survive against near any sized team. -
well, first off, its dev, not devs, and the game is workign as intended. as for your claim to survive longer, thats false, you were not in danger with him, and to be honest, by elimiting a player who obviously is better then you (since he had gear youve never seen) you actually cut your chances of survival quite a bit by killing him. that could have been a key ally, someone who knows his way around, who could have led to better things. is what you did wrong? that depends on hwo you see it. the way i see it, you got a few nice items that you will lose eventually. but you lost a potential ally, whom could have stayed with you for a long time, over multipl sessions. in the end, your the one who lost out, not the guy you killed. he clearly can get his own gear, you stated youve never even seen the backpack, youve never gotten the otehr things. so while it sucks for him, and i know its hard work (or extreame luck) he will get his things back, but you will forever lost an ally. so like i said, its only bad if you look at it one way, only good if you look the other.

Guns from a survival point of view.
opticalshadow replied to Calder's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
depends i guess from persepctive. currently i have a DMR and a MP5SD, i use the mp5 in any town im in, so my shots dont aggro anyways. the DMR is used for over watch when my fellow friends are in a town. for zombies, i find silenced weapons very useful. axes are fine, but when the game messes up and everything in twenty KM aggros, youll be happy to have one. but generally i play full stealth, and more often then not on night servers, i have been inside and out of towns and the airfield without a single aggroed zombie or zombie killed, that what i call mission achomplished. but when it does go bad, i want to know i can handle it. as for other players, when i was in airfield last night, or even a couple other cities, in the span of the hour i was there, i had no less then 20 server hoppers spawn into the area, now i went prone and hid, but the problem is there, these people are IMO cheating, they are hostile on sight, and i wont let my team fail. -
shhhhhh

in a realism setting, you dotn get blurry eyes from doing soemthing, bad in fact, nothign happen when something bad happens, the only thing that happens when something bad happens in real life, is when other people make it so, we call them police. the police are there, almost an exstention of the goverment, who have an armed force. the whole thing boils down to, if people are players, then in real life, your punished by other players when you dont follow their rules. so if you want that in day z, get a group of a shit ton of players, and lay down the law. enforcing any sort of arbitrary system of the game punishing people will never be added to day z, rocket has made this absolutly clear, it will never be done. because that makes for a shitty game.

Hacker killed me, Spawned with as50
opticalshadow replied to AltonaJS's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
admins do not have the ability to spawn gear. -
well i was at the airport for about 3 hours lasnight, found some good loot, but it was scarse and hard, in that 3 hours i would say no less then 30-50 players sever hopped to the airport and tried looting the place, logged off when they found out their not alone. its such a terribly annoying problem that the entire time im playing, i have these random peopel logging in next to loot areas taking loot and logging.

Glad you got helped
-
as of last night it was one shot on kill for infected.
-
its about your life in a russian terriotiry during a infected outbreak. just about as much point to real life, you wake up, and go.

putting spawn protection would however violate one of the core foundations rocket swore in place, being a game mechanic that puts a direct and abstract restriction on players.

The reason why people are so divided on the issue of night time darkness on DayZ...
opticalshadow replied to katulobotomia's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
i love night servers, and play on them as often as possible. its like a diffrent community in game. i find alot less dicks play, people are trying to survive, its jus tmore fun for me. -
nope never, and more alarmingly recently im finding alot of buildings listed as loot spawns that are un enterable, and after 5 diffrent checks nothing is there.

AWESOME, though i might have taken the AWS, its just to valuable for keeping you and your friends alive, but to each his own. currently im looting airfield and such but im not picking anything up unless its really amazing. my clanmates havent been on yet and all need ammo, my inventory and alice are maxed out with ammo i found for them....idk how much longer i can keep being a good guy about it,.
