CombatWombat (DayZ)

In a previous post he stated that he hated two things about the video games industry, one of which was pre-ordering. I don't think we'll have any pre-orders, and anyway, who wants to pre-order alpha? Seriously?

Squad gameplay, so generally we tend not to engage lone players, but actual structured squads. It's a lot more fun this way, but every now and again we'll come up against a lone bandit or survivor that may have something that we need. We aren't kill on sight, but we are bandits. I also play on an RP server, in which I also play as a bandit with my squad. This acts a little differently, as DayZ RP (The original one) has rules against KoS, so we prefer to hold people and vehicles up between cherno and elektro. Of course it may seem douchey, but we don't kill them if they comply to our rules. Sometimes they try to rebel against us and not follow the given instructions, and in that senario I put an M107 round into their face. (I'm squad overwatch with my friend, while the other 5 are on the ground with various equipment suited for both vehicles and infantry) We actually get killed regularly, but before taking the bandit approach we made sure that we could recover from dying so of course we have a little camp somewhere on the map :) Overall, DayZRP is probably the best experience that I have had in both Arma and DayZ, and I would highly recommend it. My IGN is BushWookie, and my clan tag is APF, so please do tell me if you actually listened to me now and joined the RP server and I'll try to make sure we don't put some lead in your head :) -CombatWombat, A.K.A BushWookie

Maybe with the repairing of vehicles it could take a certain amount of time to repair each part? I mean, you aren't exactly going to replace the engine or fuel tank in the same amount of time as a wheel,

Nobody here can really do anything about it, thanks for the warning though. I certainly won't be going on that server.

But why would a hacker use a crossbow? And how do you know he spawned the loot? I am truly confused.

Can't wait.

Never heard of this company and Rocket has said himself that he would never be in the position he is in without the help of people promoting his game all over the internet. It would seem strange he, or anyone working on the game would want to stop promotion because basically, it's just free advertising.

I applaud you for actually hitting anything with a crowbar.

Running people over in tractors.

Happened to me on numerous occasions, tbh, don't even bother trying to make a point with those guys if they don't know that much about the game. Just stick with some of your actual friends. It's a lot more fun that way.

When you get shot at, don't stop and look around, don't crouch behind some "cover" because generally you don't know what angle the enemy are coming from. My advice, sprint and zig zag. Then run behind a hill or into a dense area where they may not be able to see you and try and pin them down. When you have a decent idea of where they are coming from then try and flank them, or maybe do something that may be a little outside the square. If you're playing in a squad and encounter an enemy then I can't stress this enough, SUPPRESSION, because it actually works both in games, and out of games. DayZ's immersion really comes in to play here and most geared players are quite sentimental when it comes to their belongings. Have one person supress, while you and maybe a few others come at them from different angles. I always win my fights this way, but remember when worse comes to worse you have to be smart and think, Fight or Flight? If you're coming up against an AS50 when you have a Enfield in elektro, then personally I would choose fight because hey, what have you got to lose?

PF Private hive fits all the descriptions, and also has a lingor and rMod server. Just search for PFPrivatehive on facebook :)

DMR + M14 AIM and M9 SD = Most versatile and useful solo setup EVER! All of the guns can be used at night, and ammo for the DMR and AIM are the same, making efficient backpack space. Mainly a PvP setup but the M9 SD is all you really need to take out a zombies. Plus you really shouldn't be more than 800 metres away from an enemy with a sniper anyway.

Drive through the NW airfield in a tractor while playing "ridin' dirty" over direct communications. Oh, and it's also advisable to have an enfield and makarov with you just in case people get a little jealous ;)

Better graphics and performance, more enterable buildings, more and harder zombies and I can't be bothered naming the rest although these are some I consider important. Hope it helps fill in any gaps :P

Skull bandana all the way :D Scares the piss out of newbies though, they tend to shoot me with enfields mistaking me for a bandit

What Matt said is right, the majority of 'hackers' out there used pre-made script hacks that more than likely require a monthly fee. Without the ability to make script hacks, most current 'hackers' won't bother but the small amount that actually code scripts themselves and make these hacks will find a way to hack it, but I'm highly doubtful that they will be willing to share. My guess is that there will be hackers, but they won't be able to do the crazy shit that they can do now. The only thing that I actually like about script hacks is the ability to forcibly (annoyingly) dance. I just hope they add that as a legitimate thing to the standalone. Just for the lolz.

Takes an age to get them and repair them, might as well have some fun with it. Most of the time I have taken off in a heli we don't land safely.

Rocket has stated that he likes steam, so I'm guessing that it will be available on it.

I know for a fact that the zombies have been buffed and rebuffed in the standalone, while I'm not so sure about the CPU support.

Still got M107's so we can pop a passing vehicle? If so, awesome. If not, meh. Have you guys got any custom mods on the server fixing a few bugs and exploits? If not, I would certainly recommend it. Going to sign up tonight with my squad, hopefully looking to get some bandit action :D

I love it when hackers and script kiddies do this kinda thing instead of ruining the game. I mean, c'mon, it's pretty funny when combined with direct-chat music right?

Snow could be the cause for other diseases as well! Like the common cold and so on, these could all have their own negative effects on the players movement/aiming or something. But that's another discussion ;) +1 :beans:

Not even, if you look, the WarZ price is actually discounted due to pre-order. The $29.99 "pioneer" pack is $49.99 and the $49.99 "legend" package is apparently actually $69.99. That is how much I payed for Borderlands 2, and in my opinion it plays a shit load better than what I've seen from WarZ.

Cool, you may not think it has a place in a zombie apocalypse, but realistically you would find civilian grade rifles in and around a place like Chernarus (Being Russian). As for military snipers, maybe not but that still doesn't stop some people from having some fun. The only thing that can take out a helicopter (not the pilot) in under 20 shots is an anti-material rifle. With things like vehicles, there has to be something to counter them. It's a game.
