Vigilante clan [Regulators] Recruiting, help your fellow survivors and join the fight against banditry
thelonewarrior replied to thelonewarrior's topic in Clan / Group Recruitment
dollada06 no worries about a bandit skin, we have plenty of ex bandits who have joined us with far worse skeletons in their closets and most of them have worked their way to a hero skin, many didnt even think groups like this existed and didnt even use the forums until they were saved or approached in game and decided to repent their evil ways :) Please sign up to our forums if you would like to join, we just ask that you follow the non kill on sight rules. Dont put yourself in harms way and just do whatever you can to help people but obviously if they seem suspicious then disengage, play as you normally do or look for a group by joining our teamspeak (though just like to remind you not all the people in our teamspeak are Regulators, some are just random friendlies who jump in now and again) But rest assured as part of one of our groups we are far safer and help out more people than any of us do on our own, plus theres always the added benefit of whenever someone is pinned down they can call for support from other Regulators who will be more than happy to jump in and take on the bandits -
Friendly hacker?.......still a hacker and must be dealt with
thelonewarrior posted a topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
While playing on one of the new maps, a guy tells us hes a hacker and as long as myself and the other people nearby are friendly he will give us gear. Thats too bad......because I kill hackers and any that accept gear from them -

Hacker taking control over my character?
thelonewarrior replied to dANIELZN's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I saw this name last night just entering the server as I logged off, we had just suffered a hacker attack and i had just finished looting all the dead players bodies I could find after the hacker teleported to everyone one at a time, as I log off its just me and bandit600 in the server lol -
What type of player are you?
thelonewarrior replied to Szansa's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Im a hero through and though, I barely enter towns and live off the land, moving from place to place with my L85 / DMR combo and snipe zeds for those in trouble and if an unarmed player is under fire I take out the shooter (some call sniping cowardly, but my computer isnt great and up close my frames drop a lot, so it makes close quarters fighting very difficult to aim with, but at a distance i run on 30 frames which is fine, oppossed to 10 up close, dont flame me for it) Once my work is done......as long as the survivor doesnt need morphine or blood ill watch them and then dissappear 1. Do a quick scan of the area for 2-3 seconds with my L85 for anyone else who might hear my shots, switch to my DMR, snipe the zombies........then dissapear and watch the survivor unless hes out of sight and safe or follow him and stay hidden until he finds himself a gun. (I do this all the time) 2. This happened once in elektro, guy was getting shot at and crashed his car, car exploded and he got shot in the leg and returned fire with an AS50 and killed the shooter who had an AKM, he was crawling away and I ran in to shoot the zombies with my winchester. He did look at me for a few seconds then started shooting zeds, unfortunantly he died of blood loss after being swarmed by zombies. But my answer: I would leave quickly and scan the trees for a trap (always have an L85 handy I do :) ) then tell him to drop all his weapons. Id help him / her and then take their AS50 and place it by the front door to the supermarket and tell them I have my DMR, they can take their sidearm and wait for 5mins, ill be backing up as I leave and watching the door with my DMR, if they take it before Im out of sight ill drop them 3. AS always scan the surrounding area, ask them where they are headed. But only take the ride if they have superior gear and are going somewhere that I need to go desperatly (if I have no food or water) but I usually dont get into verchiles with strangers, the only times I have turned out to be hackers both times, one took me to their camp which I blew up, the other offered me a ride in a chopper on fallujah and then crashed it into the ground.......and as I lay dead I saw him running around me in circles laughing at my lost gear as he was invicible. :( -

We need personal defense items (i.e bulletproof vests)
thelonewarrior replied to Slyguy65's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It would be good in the standalone if we had: Army helmet, first headshot from a low calibre weapon is ignored Flak jacket, same as hero skin Kevlar swat armour, reduces damage by 50%, cannot sprint only jog, turning speed and aiming is reduced. Simples -
Well at least the rocks have stopped eating people

thelonewarrior replied to mikeratcliff's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Ok, my clan has done this before. Cherno worked well but you MUST play on a nameplate server to avoid friendly fire. Berezino is your best bet, because there are few sniper positions and all the enterable buildings are clustered in one spot (hospital, general store, pub) I will come along, only if you play on a nameplate server There will be infiltraters and ghosters and snipers. I have an L85 and DMR so can provide counter sniping Another good location is the factory near kamenka and komarovo as its well open to spot snipers, the factory provides great cover from sniper both on the roof and on the ground and theres a tower and hill overlooking to whole area for your sniper support. I personally would go for the factory near kamenka, as many new spawns will come through there heading for balota. Let me know if this goes ahead and ill jump in and help you guys -
I will never be a bandit. Survivor nice-guy stories
thelonewarrior replied to IroquoisPliskin (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Do you know what weapon was shooting the zombies? It may have been me if it was a DMR or an L85, thats my current loadout, 19 days (techically, 15 then accidently pressed respawn) plus 4 more. I always patrol the towns and forests, those running from zombies who have just spawned usually get the special treatment as I know they cant turn around and shoot me. My tactics usually involve: Spot player in trouble, sniper zeds or bandit, hide......they will never know who saved them or where I am, I like it that way.......because if you cant see where I am..........im then everywhere :) -
Happened to me, started after the latest arma update so I think its that. Keeps crashing lol :(

Not a care-bear thread, but asking for a solution
thelonewarrior replied to Jurkey's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It isnt true about if there are more friendlies they still lose. Look at some of my videos, especially the one where we had a squad of 6 enforce a no KOS policy in elektro. In the missions ive run with my clan, most of the time we succeed with minimal casualties. WHY? Because we are well armed, in force and anyone who sees us thinks twice about engaging us, in one mission we lost one of our team to two bandits, and hit them with everything we had and they failed as they panicked against 5 of us Point is.....if the law is there and its a stronger force than yourself your not going to win. We are friendly, they know that by the fact that we didnt shoot them when we surrounded them. They are free to go their own way but they moment they do something bandit like, they get sniped from our overwatch. We spot, track and follow those suspected and if they shoot a survivor on sight we take them out. The only reason the game/ mod exists in its current state is due to the bandits outnumbering the friendlies so overall their playstyle rules. The moment their are more friendlies it will change. For example, 50 players in a server, 5 are friendly, 45 are bandits. They are going to get killed over and over. The bandits will kill each other off eventually Another example. 45 friendlies in a server, 5 bandits. Friendlies are going to rat out the bandits to other people, where they are ect and the friendlies will move in force to eliminate them as they can work together to eliminate the threat, the bandits wont work together unless they are already a team In scenario 1, if each player has only 1 life I predict all the bandits will kill each other off including the friendlies, everybody ends up dying here. In scenario 2, I predict that the bandits will kill 2-3 people each on average before being killed themselves. So perhaps 20 friendlies (or other bandits) will die at the most. If a bandit kills someone and another player (friendly) is nearby they will probably kill the bandit themselves to protect themselves. The friendlies will have more encounters with each other and if they call friendly they will team up, so even if a bandit opens fire theres a chance the friendly groups can take them out in the return fire. You may get 1 or 2 badass bandits that are the real deal, but most bandits wont be. In scenario 2, theres a good chance the friendlies will survive with more people. Therefore, that is the problem. There are more bandits then friendlies and if there were 99% friendly and 1% bandits we would be having the same conversation in reverse 'OMG OMG why cant I be a bandit, all these people everywhere keep hunting me donw because I shot their friends, its not fair that I cant go around killing everyone with no consequences' -
{Poll} A player saves your life, what do you do
thelonewarrior posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Just want to get a feel of the dayz community though I know what this will turn out like. Heres what happend: You have top end gear, doing what you do when you somehow go unconcious, could be you had a firefight and lost too much blood or zeds got you. Eiether way you have passed out, when suddenly you find yourself being bandaged, transfused and epipenned. Or it could be you were pinned down, almost dead and bleeding and they take out the guy who is trying to kill you, maybe you survived your opponent only to be swarmed by zombies and they take them out for you and then they come over and heal you Whatever the situation, someone has just saved you and your gear that you wanted to keep, you were moments from death but someone helped you, Whats your next move? Lets assume they are well armed too and have equal or better gear than you -
You ran over an empty can of mountain dew

{Poll} A player saves your life, what do you do
thelonewarrior replied to thelonewarrior's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I do this all the time, usually just give a blood transfusion to people who are unconcious, I dont risk giving them a wake up call with an epipen. Watching their paranoid reaction afterwards is also interesting, especially at night when I have NV and they dont. They look all around for me but never find me -
Pressed escape, pressed options to change my settings.....nope I hit respawn. In the middle of the fucking forest and I hadnt checked my map in a while.... Needless to say I spent 4 hours retracing my steps.....but never found my body. Goodbye coyote backpack, DMR, NV goggles, rangefinder all legitimantly found at heli crashes :(

Why geared up players are hard to kill
thelonewarrior replied to zmol's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I have good gear and im not hard to kill, usually takes 1 sniper round as soon as I spawn in on a server with 1 other person. (did that the other day, spawned in next to a guy scoping out a city with a sniper, was just us on the server and I spawned in next to him, he never saw me and headed into town :) ) Plus i have plenty of gear in my camp, so dont care much about dying -
Lol, If I didnt trust someone I had teamed up with I would have not said anything, but left at the first chance I got. I would have no intention of harming someone without cause, but if they seemed dodgy I would slip away when they are distracted with picking something up and just get out of there rather than wait around for them to decide they have had enough of my company

Greetings from the Regulators to the Walking Militia. I dont know if you know of us Regulators, but our rules are very much the same as your.

If you wish to contact us please PM me (as I am one of the admins on our forums) or make a post on our forums and we can go from there. Our rules are here if you wish to see what you think so you know whether an alliance is possible: http://regulators.freeforums.org/read-this-regulator-rules-of-engagement-roe-t55.html :) Look forward to hearing from you -
As a regulator I am always looking to help those that will accept it without attacking us. A video of some of the people Ive helped recently without taking fire from them :)
