  1. So Shaw would have sniped noob spawns from a hill overlooking Elektro all day? Because that would be kind of amazing and fucked up at the same time.
  2. In the arts of life man invents nothing; but in the arts of death he outdoes Nature herself, and produces by chemistry and machinery all the slaughter of plague, pestilence, and famine. -- George Bernard Shaw
  3. Green Mountain will start broadcasting an easy listening format.

    Chernarus Height Map

    Just wanted to say thank you, this is a great project.
  5. I've found broken-down ATVs at two different locations that both had a camping tent, a can of beans, and a heat pack in each. So either some person/persons stashed identical stuff in each, or it spawns with it.

    I need advice.

    I've played alone a lot, mostly without a vehicle. It requires a lot of patience and the willingness to spend hours roaming the map, but the rewards (finding a camp, escaping an ambush) are that much sweeter for the time put in. Plus, it really forces you to learn how to navigate properly. Of course, another style of solo play is to run to Cherno/Elektro, grab a gun, and deathmatch it up. The action is faster, but you die more often.
  7. Same thing happened to me while driving a PBX. I'll try the manual BE download.
  8. This entire thread and the many others like it show why Day Z needs centrally controlled servers when it goes stand alone, otherwise it will fail. In Eve Online lots of people bitch about the big alliances like Goonswarm, but nobody can say they got kicked by them, because it's just not possible.
  9. I feel you, but I'm just trying to get a sense of how often people lose a vehicle to the server rather than through in-game mechanics.
  10. Remove kill counters from the debug window. Remove the "x was killed" messages. Remove the swarm of flies sound from dead bodies. If you want to confirm a kill, you'll have to exam the body yourself. Why? Because uncertainty adds tension.
  11. Actually, the first time this bug happened to me my corpse was waiting for me when I got back to my camp after a very long hike north.
  12. Weapon jams would be great. Fully support.
  13. I just want a confirmation of whether the ocean in the arma engine has high and low tides. The reason I ask is that I've left boats near the shoreline only to come back hours later to find them stuck in the shallows. Is this tidal action, did someone else just move it, or am I crazy? Thanks to anyone who can answer this conclusively.
  14. So I did some more googling around, and found a few brief references to tides in BI forums: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?108579-Tide-Water-level-Arma-2-Utes http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?41722-Water-waves-and-tides http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?32123-Rivers-caves-and-quot-moving-quot-tides I'd still like to know if it's possible to figure out when high/low tides will happen on a server.

    Remove kill information

    I'm sorry, but what do you mean by "underline factors in the DayZ Gameplay?" I don't understand.
  16. NFK

    Remove kill information

    If the kill counter is displayed, and you shoot someone and it goes up by one, then you have a confirmation of the kill without having to check the body. Perhaps an alternative would be to display all of your character's kills after you die?
  17. I love this idea. Always wanted to have a small, hidden stash rather than an obvious camp.
  18. ...you break your leg and then go the emergency room saying, "No really, all I need is a shot of morphine."
  19. I've seen the same thing, no idea how to get it though. Also, you should post this in bug reports, not general discussion.
  20. This exact same thing has happened to me twice on US 530 in the past 48 hours. Killed on loading --> debug plains with no inventory --> disconnect and reconnect --> spawn on coast with all gear and counters. When I get back to my original location, my body is there with all of its inventory (so duped). It's not so bad, but the hike back north does take time. I've never gone to the debug plains before 1.7.2.4.
