31) can you hold 2 primary weapons? what are the pros and cons? After finding a larger pack (Alice packs spawn reliably in Grocery Stores, Czech packs spawn often in Medium and Low value residential) you're able to hold more slots. With a coyote pack you could conceivably carry 3 primary weapons (2 in your pack at 10 slots apiece with 4 spare slots for mags or supplies). When you open your bag you can hotswap a weapon in your bag for the weapon your carrying. In the way of fair warning though your magazines hotswap along side your weapon, and if the amount you're switching into your bag (feeding your held primary) exceed the total available slots in your bag your character will simply drop them. This configuration is popular with snipers, as it allows the carrying of a high powered, long ranged weapon like an AS50 or Barret for long range engagements and a M4 CCO SD for close encounters and raiding. This combination is devastating.

Says the self proclaimed bandit medic.

15 troops. We run all the hell over Chernarus. None of us has ever seen one. Maybe I'm playing in the wrong servers. (We did find two FALs with Night Fighter scopes, which is pretty sweet for overwatch)

I've never used DayZ commander so I can't speak to that programs features. However with Six Launcher you can sort servers by their ARMA II version and most have their beta version number in the title.

24) what items are required to build a jeep/Bike/helicopter? Fuel Tank parts are required to repair a vehicles fuel tank, scrap metal to repair the hull, tires to repair the wheels, engine parts to repair the engine, and for helicopters only you need a main rotor assembly. The number vary from vehicle to vehicle, to check the condition enter the vehicle and check the top left GUI. Bars that are red mean parts that need to be replaced. These can all be found at medium and high value Industrial targets, of which there are large easily accessible clusters in both Cherno and Electro. You will also need jerry cans full of fuel to actually operate your vehicle. These function similarly to canteens but are filled at gas stations and tanker trailers. Once a vehicle is repaired it's wise to keep spare parts in the in vehicle container, to allow for emergency field repairs. 25)Can you hit with your barehands? No. 26)Can I start a fire with a Flare? No. Flares are useful for signaling and light generation, but they do not ignite flammable objects (likely due to engine limitations). 27)where can I get fire? Procure matches and a hatchet from a residential, industrial or farm target, both are relatively common. Proceed to a forest, approach a tree, right click the hatchet's context menu and click harvest wood. Then right click matches and select build campfire. Next aim at the campfire and use the scroll wheel on your mouse to select light fire from the campfire's context menu. You can also use campfires for storage, though you will lose anything in them should you light them. 28)can I shoot a jimmy can and create an explosion? No, also likely due to engine limitations. 29) can you swim?Can Zombies Swim? Yes to both, but zombies suffer pathfinding issues in water, so for new players it's a sound escape strategy to go for a swim. This can however lead to infection as your body temp drops, and with larger packs can lead to the loss of inventory in pack. 30) how do you change between chats? Voice and Typing. Caps lock to speak, / / ? key to use text. You don't need to switch between the two as they're keyed separately.

No problem, last week I was a newbie. You can read about the first few days here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/43292-new-player-survivor-log/#entry410608

15. Grocery Stores and High Value Residentials. 16. Hold Alt for Free Look. 17. There is no default melee. Even melee weapons are essentially firearms with maximum ranges of about a meter (it's why you have to reload, there is no separate melee weapon type in ARMA as far as I know). 18. Aside from ejecting from a helicopter, vaulting off a cliff, walking off a building, standing near a high explosive or getting hit by a truck there is no way to get airborne. V(ault) will allow you to mantle low obstacles. Use caution though, as vaulting Concertina wire will sometimes result in broken legs. 19. That's V(ault) close to a low object and press it and you'll be able to get over it. It also allows you to climb rocks and some trees. 20. Cooking an animal is the most reliable way to survive in the wilderness, when couple with a canteen and a pond one never needs to enter the cities again. Kill the animal (either with a firearm or a hatchet), procure wood (using the context menu on the hatchet while standing next to a tree in a forest), build a campfire (by using the context menu on the matches), light the fire (by looking at the campfire and using it's context menu with the scroll wheel), and cook the meat (again using the context menu with the scroll wheel on the lit fire). Cooking meat will cook all meat in your immediate inventory (as in not in your backpack). Each meat allows the recovery of 800 blood, making it the next best thing to a bloodpack, killing cooking and eating a cow will allow the recovery of a total of 6400 blood (over half). Use caution however, as campfires attract all zombies within 300 meters and during the day the smoke can be seen by observant players; during the night the light from the fire can be seen from over a kilometer within line of sight. 21. Yes but you need a canteen. These can be procured most reliably in Residential and Farm areas. 22. Empty Soda Cans generate noise when thrown that zombies and jumpy players will investigate. Use this to your advantage as you see fit. 23. Ponds are a reliable water source, however most are not in heavily wooded areas that provide visible and protective cover, use caution and as always, move quickly and quietly. Other FAQ Medicine If you've recently taken damage and your hands are shaking you're in shock. Painkillers will resolve this issue. If you were recently near an explosion your screen will either flash white or be temporarily white and you will be temporarily deafened. The only remedy to this is to wait briefly. If you drop below 35 degrees skin temp (either by swimming, getting caught in the rain, or playing at night) you run the risk of catching an infection signified by your character coughing, this can only be remedied with antibiotics which are highly rare. To prevent this use heatpacks to regain health instantly or sit near a fire, in a vehicle or in a building to regain temp gradually. When you reach critical blood loss you will occasionally lose consciousness due to anemia. This makes you extremely vulnerable, remedy this by eating food or by having a friendly administer a blood pack. When you see someone who has lost consciousness you can immediately revive them through the application of an Epipen (Epinephrine Autoinjector). This will not however fix the condition that rendered them unconscious in the first place so it's advisable to administer bandages and blood before you revive them (provided they're bleeding and low on blood). To address a broken bone apply a morphine autoinjector. This can be done to yourself. All medical supplies (including very rarely antibiotics) can be found in Hospitals. To enter a hospital smash the front glass with either an empty can (thrown), a hatchet, or a firearm. Breaking glass does not seem to attract zombies. Once inside the most available source of medicine are the medical boxes, small cardboard boxes scattered around the floor which contain a set number of supplies. Take what you need and move on. The most easily accessible hospital is in Cherno, North Side, it is past the medium value residentials and marked on the DayZdb.com map with a Red Cross. General To throw things further hold the mouse button instead of clicking. To access your throwable items hit F. This will also cycle fire modes on relevant weapons. Only throwable items in your immediate inventory will cycle. DO NOT CLICK THROW GRENADES. To raid at night, despite the risk, it is typically best to light a large area around your target with flares. Don't loiter however, as the flares will draw attention from significant distance. Don't talk about NVGs. I suspect the vast majority of NVGs in player inventory can be traced back to duping (even if you did not dupe them you took them off someone who did, or off someone who took them off someone who did). If you find them treasure them. Always check hills outside of major coastal cities before walking into the city proper. You might find a sniper, and snipers are universally dicks. They have good stuff and the world is well rid of them. Take everything you can carry and then bury their body.

Your Character and your Kit migrate servers with you. I do not believe you can access your server history. But I could be incorrect. Numpad Enter Key. Right click and remove from toolbelt. The hatchet will enter your rifle slot. You'll need to reload before you can swing it. When you find a rifle just right click again and return to your toolbelt. Not every building is interactable. For a complete list see dayzdb.com/map. Depends where you are. Lower density areas have less buildings you can interact with. Standard enter key, or scroll wheel open door. This will only work on interactable doors. Run through a building or run up a hill (zig zag to maintain speed). Once you break line of site hide and you should break aggro. If you have additional questions my clans website and my xfire are in my profile, we would be happy to help you out.

Your name is shockingly apropos.

You post nothing substantive as a rebuttal and you accuse me of failure. Do you have a computer under your bridge or are you posting from a net cafe?

You may be a Silly Yooper but damnit you are correct, sir. Ashlander born and raised.

Boat tail rounds, such as those used in Former Soviet Block weapons yaw reliably when rapidly decelerating. This can lead to significantly greater energy transfer than higher velocity NATO standard rounds. This increased energy transfer causes what's called hydroshock, essentially the bullet generates a pressure wave that drags soft tissue and fluid with it along for the ride. AK wounds are monstrous, and there's no reason to dial back their damage just because they're common. The same thing goes for .45's, the round is slow and heavy enough to transfer a colossal amount of energy to a recipient sufficient to disable or kill a human being fairly reliably in a single shot as was demonstrated in the Philippine expeditions, which led to the adoption of the .45 as the standard round of the US Military forces. Would you like to know more?

So they're tiering kit irrespective of the actual physics involved. That doesn't strike you as gamey?

Welcome, to another edition of Thunderdome!

So you're going to dine in hell tonight?

I would totally murder someone for a lab coat.

I have two sets of brothers in my group and they can both log fine, I think you just need to reconfigure your home network so it assigns separate IP addresses to each terminal.

The convicts are like Bandits, you don't beat them they just go away for awhile.

Also, avoid playing this:

Hawks eat carrion dude, most raptors do. But you're being pedantic, as I think there's only one bird model and it's a generic model.

I miss my Government. :(

You get beans for not typing "your."

Does Detta ever type anything that isn't an insult directed at other people's intelligence? I've seen him call people stupid and retarded even when he's demonstrably wrong. Even when being demonstrably wrong is subsequently explained and or demonstrated. He could run around at night carrying flares. I gotta admit, I'm no bandit, but even I'd shoot him.

That already happened when /v/ got a hold of the game.
