Please help, I need moral help & directions.
HanoverFist replied to m4rre's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Well in my opinion you cheated yourself more than anything else. I myself have not yet been put in such a situation , I generally run solo so it's hard for me to say what I would do in that position, or what you should have done. I think that you failed to resolve the situation for good or bad and I believe that is what is bothering you. My advice: stay with it to resolution no matter what in the future , I think you will find it a lot more fulfilling that way , even if you die. Living with bad decisions can be worse than the decisions themselves. That fight or flight tension part of the game really is the (beans and sardines)meat and potatoes, without it your just eating the peas and spinach and while they will keep you alive , they are not near as tasty. :) -
How would you rather pay for it? - Game purchase with Monthly fee? (WoW stylez) No thanks - Game purchase only? (Guild Wars stylez) Yes this, Game Purchase only. - Free to play, buy your shit? No thanks - Something else? No thanks Also: - Community developed or studio developed? Studio - Community or studio servers? or both? Both - Kickstarter? or not? No opinion

HanoverFist replied to firef0kz's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
This is not very reassuring. This is under Battle eyes FAQ. Corrupted Memory #X: BattlEye detects that your game's memory is not what it is supposed to be. Scan your system for viruses/trojans/spyware and check your RAM for possible defects (using tools like Memtest86). If that doesn't help, the game's installation on your harddisk is possibly corrupted - therefore, try to reinstall the game. I know thats not it, but man think of going through all that to find out it just needed an update -

I recommend leaving the coast and all the towns on it head inland ASAP , stay in the woods but follow the roads. You'll be less likely to run into other players ( who will happily kill you for no reason or for your beans)and more likely to find better loot. When you see an infected lay down and crawl to your destination. Don't Sprint or crouch run unless you are positive that you are in the clear. Double tap left shift to toggle slow and fast modes for prone, crouch, and standing. If you crouch walk you are way less visible than if you crouch and run . Watch the icons with and eye and an ear, and the visibility number in the debug console. The icon bars are a rough indicator and that visibility number is your best friend . If that number goes above 65/75 you are in danger of being seen even at long distances, keep it below that if you are anywhere near trouble and there are still no guarantees. When you slow crawl even across roads that number hovers around 20 and at 20 and below the infected need to be pretty close(15feet or less guesstimate) to see you. Stay in the high grasses bushes and woods as much as possible. Team up if you can but trust NO ONE ,,,,,,,,,,,,ever.

My first murder and now I feel guilty
HanoverFist replied to dnoparker@gmail.com's topic in New Player Discussion
Just like others I have tried the "friendly dont shoot first" approach only to be out right murdered for a bandaid about 8 out of 10 times. So now I generally avoid any and all contact. I got the mod two weeks ago and I committed my first one last night . And I did feel a little guilty about it , but the fella left me no choice. He kept advancing on me when I was cornered in a house with one door with no where to go. I said in direct chat leave or get shot and he kept getting closer. He saw me strait across from him with a semiauto shotgun aimed at his head and he still kept slowly creeping closer. Needless to say my shotty out performed his hatchet. I felt bad because when I checked his corpse he had just the hatchet with no food or water. He might have just wanted some help or to look at the little bit of gear I had, or maybe to bury a hatchet in my skull. He may have just been trying to get further away from the door so infected wouldn't see him. He may have been a hapless noob that didn't even know how to respond back, but I just couldn't bring myself to take any of those chances. So sorry fella if you happen to read this it wasn't personal, I didn't want to kill you , you just left me no other choice in this paranoia filled game. I do actually try my hardest to avoid these situations. But inevitably everyone that plays this game will have to make these choices sooner or later. If you come at me with a weapon in hand you're on the menu, no weapon in hand and I'll let you live every time. -
Ditto that .
