True I spent a few hours yesterday looking for someone to saline transfuse me Not a single survivor responded One guy stopped when I pointed my gun at him and told him to put away his axe, he looked at me and sprinted away zig zagging for over a minute I offered one guy a gun if he would heal me, and he ran away after staring for about 20 seconds Funniest one was a guy on solnichny factory, I told him if he transfused me I'll give him some supplies( he logged in next to me), he turned and leaped off the roof as soon as I spoke, and he had a loaded mosin and other stuff, he swiveled his head and jumped off(I think he tried to log out before he hit the ground but failed)

## hour player lock / Gear locked to server!
thelonewarrior replied to WarAndRuin's topic in General Discussion
No If a server crashes I don't want to wait for a whole hour, sometimes when a server restarts only 1-2 players rejoin it, so now I would be forced to play with no one around If it was like 15mins it wouldn't be a pain, but all this does is force people to wait around to even have any quality of play or just not bother playing at all, something does need to be done but when it will be punishing more legit players than the non legit ones something is clearly wrong -
Real life zombie apocalypse
thelonewarrior replied to GotAWarInTheHead's topic in General Discussion
Well if the zombie apocalypse was in the exact state of the game now, people would have to team up to survive otherwise when they go to sleep a zombie would phase through the wall and eat them if someone wasn't watching over them I think when it's in it's final most version with more zombies which are improved, it will be pretty close Just remember though a large amount of the worlds population don't play video games, so my thoughts are the people playing want to shoot stuff or expect it as it's a game, there are so many other factors in real life that no one could predict it But I think the final version in 2028 will be close to what it is likely to be in real life -
Hacker just Teleported me to middle of water.

Go to steam Change your name Resets your character (Or at least for me it reset all my saved options in game and how my character looks, should reset your location and make you an new spawn) -
One thing that's really annoying me and other people i play with is the server restarts No timers No warning I've been climbing a ladder, only to get a restart and appear standing in the air upon login only to then fall to my death I've been swapping my items into a new backpack when the server restarts to login again without eiether backpack or a half empty one I've had a server restart while on a street only to log in to another server only to hear my dying screams as zombies kill me or fatally wound me because I was forced to log in at a stupid location or been shot while logging in because I'm standing in the open This is not a bug, it's something that I think should have been in there from the start as it ruins play a lot of the time It is a simple thing to do, a 5 min warning would suffice share your experiences with it

Try this on a guy that's actually armed and I might be a little more impressed If he had a gun, he would have fired as soon as he saw your friend

I think balota weapons should be reduced somewhat Why? Because I've spent all my time up north since the game came out, I've done north east airfield, berizeno, zenogorsk, starry, vybor and north west airfield, I spent a few hours at each (nearly 5 hours in the north east waiting for my group) I saw one player at berezino and none at the other locations, I spent a good few hours at north west waiting to see if anyone came by and nothing, the loot remained untouched over multiple server restarts on a 40/40 server I headed to balota and there were mass gun fights going on in EVERY server I went on, one server had about 15 people there punching each other while one guy picked them off with his m4 May as well call the game balota death match, because all the while there are so many guns there no one wants to leave the coast If no one wants to leave the coast, might as well just reduce the map size and leave just balota and call the game complete

I once helped a Bambi in the mod at the coast, I was a fully geared hero skin and he had a hatchet I saved him from a bandit and escorted him to balota, when we got there I heard "dumbass hero fag" and then got hit by about 15 as50 rounds, lost my dmr and coyotee backpack It pisser me off for a while but don't let it get to you, best thing is to just send people on their way once you've helped the a bit and never tell then where you going to leave them until your there to avoid an ambush

I'll be donating can openers and compasses along the beach tomorrow, sadly I couldn't find a Christmas hat so I'll have to settle for a red hoodie and motorbike helmet

This is a quick guide on how to use the Mosin with a sniper scope attached, as it appears to have a slight problem which I don't know if its intended http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGQsf0L72OE

My weirdest/creepiest/loneliest life in DayZ ever.
thelonewarrior replied to autoloon's topic in General Discussion
Me and my group haven't encountered anyone up north yet I went alone to North east airfield and looted it clean, over 100 rounds for an m4 and full military gear and weapons Headed back after a restart with some friends, just before the next restart (3hour restarts) Meaning: I arrived 45mins before a restart, was not looted at all and all doors closed, so no one had been there in 3 hours, about 1 and 1/2 hours later my group arrived after the restart and we geared up with another few hundred rounds and some mosin ammo, So no players had been there in at least 4-5 hours The place was a gold mine for us -
Ive died twice like this, one on a ladder while climbing and another in a room while checking gear, only one entrance and instant dead as there was no one in the doorway and no one able to shoot me inside an apartment on a ladder So something is amiss, either hacking or a bug

It seems like the mod issues have carried over to the sa
thelonewarrior replied to Shakakahn's topic in General Discussion
And if a big company had made this instead of rocket it would be WarZ all over again, or running around with 'badass' heavy machine guns and AS50s with 600 rounds in their backpack fighting off hordes of crappy animated zombies that take about 3 hours to kill you, but don't worry! Youll have 15 full health restore kits. no Rocket was the right one to make this -
Oh god, yeah if you think you have it bad now, when I first started it was wait 15mins to spawn in a server bang! As50 shot, your dead Maybe id get lucky and spawn somewhere safe, but there was always someone with a thermal sight sniping you from 2km away You've got it easy compared to the veterans right now

thelonewarrior replied to Shakakahn's topic in General Discussion
Then you've been misinformed Zombies don't zig zag, they run straight at you now you don't even need to see the name of the item, stand near it and press tab (inventory) and on the left side of the screen it shows any items nearby Zombies do occasionally walk through walls, but I saw a zombie leap a fence today -
KOS still here, don't see how it will go away
thelonewarrior replied to hypergolem's topic in General Discussion
Also bear in mind that the zombies are low numbers and don't respawn so people still have nothing to do at the moment -
It's already been discussed, the reasons why you get wiped are the following: The server your playing on hasn't been white listed so you will lose your gear if you play on that server and log out or try to join another server I've found one server where my gear isn't reset and it's probably because of the above So I'm staying there and only playing on that server which had worked fine so fa Sadly there isn't any way to determine what servers do this so just try playing on the same server and see what happens and hopefully you won't get a gear wipe

Of course it's very difficult to survive as a lone wolf The whole idea of many features is to cooperate with others I've been playing since the mod came out and I've Been in a few tough spots and I know where to find stuff It's a zombie survival apocalypse game, it's supposed to be hard Most people play games where you are spoon fed 200 rounds everytime you get a gun or have "magic" med kits that fully restore health This is the real deal, and it's not going to change for anyone
-
You can do it with the mosin, so why not all guns?
-
We"ll see how people lone wolf KOS when the zombie spawns increase, I've seen people get cornered by 2-3 zombies and die easily, once there are more and hordes I doubt many of these bandits will last long on their own and just keep dying at the coast It will be the bandit groups that prosper in the banditry department and other survivors will have to work together Seriously try taking on five zombies with a mosin while they aggro from outside and you don't know what door they will come through I gurrantee you'll take some damage, now imagine that x 10 and that's closer to the number I can see roaming cities in later updates Most people cant handle a few zombies at the moment until they have a gun (myself included although now I have a gun it's less of a struggle) I was looting earlier and somehow 5 zombies aggroed to me while I'm in a house I shoot with my mosin but it attracts another 4 and I spent the last 3 hours avoiding towns to replenish my blood I barely escaped, and greater zombie numbers are coming, your going to need other people if you want to get anywhere other than the coast
