I think it would take some of the punch away from BS encounters if a skillful player could sneak up on them and watch them picking their nose or whatever the hell they do when they're not roflstomping anyone dumb enough to casually stroll through their territory instead of taking it at a dead sprint*. *This actually saved my life last night. I was running on Seraja and got jumped by someone I never saw. He shot, missed, I heard roaring so I didn't slow down. In a few seconds he flies into berserk mode, AK107 pissing lead like the chainsaw it is. It wasn't enough. His death message popped 10 seconds after the initial shot. I briefly considered looking for his body, but there were three sets of red eyes barreling towards me, and I didn't feel the need to take my MK48 loud so close to Seraja Army Base over some bambi's gear.

Allow me to reiterate, they're easily downable with a crossbow. Unfortunately they eat the bolts, but that's a whole other thing. So hit Northern Army Base, Western Checkpoint, Southern Army Base, Seraja, or Nitija. There are only a few spawns that are outside easy walking distance of these. That's filthy casual talk.

"I think [the devs/rocket] should get rid of [humanity] because the game is [meant] to be real life[;] just because you kill people does not mean you [automatically] have to change clothes[.] [Games] are not meant to be easy or give advantages to the weak because the real world [doesn't]." Translation: I'm a bandit and I'm sick of people shooting my shemagh'ed ass on sight.

I've killed one with a crossbow. They're not as hard to down as you're implying. Besides, this is namalsk, in five minutes of running a Fresh Spawn can have an RPK and 300 rounds of ammo from maybe 75% of spawns.

I like most of the changes, hunting bloodsuckers is amazing. The EVR adds an interesting dynamic to world exploration. The only thing I don't understand is the removal of coyote packs from basic military spawn lists I, if I understand the patch notes correctly. If I can make a suggestion, I understand military spawns not having food in order to push the survival angle, and to make Vorkuta and Old Hospital more important, but it does strain the imagination a bit. Military rations would be neat, either in bar form (You could use the world model for bandage) or cans (retex of standard food cans).

G Key.

Everything I mentioned is from A2. In the bunker.

I've been farming over a week and have not seen one. I've found seven M136's (useless), 6 barretts, a dozen or so lmgs, and enough ACOGs to invade a third world country. Either the spawn is broken on the server I frequent or I'm the unluckiest sum'bitch on the planet.

Or a big zombie with a rocket launcher if you want to go old school. Seriously though, me and a friend went to Seraja with LMGs and both of us got killed by zombies, so the map is clearly a challenge even to seasoned players, which is a big plus in my opinion. But on the other hand I've spent a week solid farming for a railgun. I found four barretts last night. No railgun.

These maps need to add things beyond new locale to keep people interested, like new weapon sets, scripted events, shit, how about zombies that hunt you across the map. That would be sweet.

Seriously, their spawn rate is increased. I throw them away with the rest of the junk.

I'm still looking for that fucking railgun.

You've obviously made up your mind, you're ignoring legitimate criticisms and fixating on the stupid ones. Thread is pointless and OP is an asshole and all that.

How much of that is map design and how much of that is people running around using navigator?

Hate to tell you buddy, but if I find an M21 and an M107 in the same area I'll take the M21 every single time.

Zombies = Totally Believable Lugging a .50 around = Can't Comprehend ARMA doesn't have an encumbrance system yet. This Option exists, it purposefully was not implemented. This Option is the default, it was purposefully changed for DayZ. This is asinine for several reasons. A modern Semi-Automatic .50 is well compensated enough that a proficient shooter strong enough to lift it can fire it. Secondly one does not have to be prone to brace a weapon. Lastly this is not ACE mod, and will never incorporate ACE mod, according to the wishes of ACE mod's designers. If only something could be done about the whinging.

Seraja has more high grade spawns than A2. What A2 offers is security. Until somebody draws you to the entry level and then hucks an M67 down the hole.

Never caught a cold on Namalsk despite all the firefights on and around Nitija and Saraja, maybe you're your playing wrong.

They're common rare. I have a tendency to find them way more than I need them, but that's due to frequenting high value military spawns. And unless they changed the behavior of boxes, they never spawn in boxes, only in ground loot piles. Now matches ... shit. I can never find matches when I need them, but once I have them they're everywhere. The random number gods are a cruel and capricious lot.

I suppose clones still count.

I have the steam version. I still launch it without steam using commander.

1. Don't launch through steam. Download DayZ Commander and use that as your launch program. 2. You don't need to redownload every time, select your arma files, move them to another folder, open steam, delete local files, move them back, click download, it just reinstalls from local.

Fixed that for you.

You can fix a wrong CD-Key in 30 seconds. I'll admit the game has it's obstacles, but if you legitimately spent 4 hours it's a PEBKAC error.
