Best find a 1911 or Revolver and get up close for your kills. The Enfield is either from ArmA2 or Operation Arrowhead. Just because it's a British gun, doesn't mean it's from BAF............. this isn't WWII.

Leveling up is gay and doesn't belong in ArmA. You already have the tools to be a medic or a marksman, or a hunter, or a pro scavenger or a zombie hunter or a builder or whatever. The tools are already there for you to pick a role and change whenever you want to. The problem is that the game is overrun with individuals. I rarely see groups of more than 2 or 3 and we will never create a society or be able to isolate character types until people actually start playing like they can be something more than an individual. The only reason my group hasn't really tried to make a big FOB or take over an area and make it a safe zone is because it's still really early in development and hell most of us died on the AF over the weekend and half our tents have vanished by now. I don't know why you need special abilities or leveling up bonuses when just doing the act should be enough. You want an XP counter? You have one, it tells you what day your character is on when you log in. Days spent alive is the only measure of success in Day Z. That is until a clear break between the civilized, the undead and the social outcasts is made. Only more burdens and fewer resources will drive us to this end.

I'll admit it, if I aggro too many zombies and I'm out of ammo then I'll just say screw it and DC, but I'll fight until I'm totally empty. I've never ran from a player though, that's really the most fun I have in the game. I've only DC'd like twice from Zombies, once because I just got bored shooting them on top of the hospital in Berezino and the other time in the fire station tower in Elektro when I ran out of ammo....... it was last night and karma got me like 3 minutes later when I joined a new server. Server hopping, sure have done it a couple times and karma has gotten me every time. So I should probably just stop. I'd be cool with a sort of timer for DC. But it would have to protect against "session lost". Had that like 5 times yesterday. I remember they tried something similar in End War because DCing was a massive problem for people and assholes would use it as an exploit. The solution was to start killing units in your barracks so if you were a routine DCer, you were stuck with shit units. Saddly, this broke the game for me because I hadn't figured out NAT settings on my XBox so I would lose connections a lot of the time and I ended up with shit units too. Btw, End War is a terrible game. I actually think I'm more in favor of a "15 Minute Cool Down". Yeah people will still bitch because they didn't get the loot from a dead body, but 15 minutes is a pretty steep penalty and it would make me think twice about DCing.

Rocket the game is too awesome...
i wub pugs replied to killroth's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Give us ACE, Rocket. Let us "weigh" how much gear we can possibly take and how far we can outrun zombies. Yes, we will all die, and this is the point. You only seek to live because you don't know you are already dead. -

I'm glad you can take a shit on an idea that's been implemented for all of like 8 hours. Walk into a building somewhere and find some wood. You'll get a hatchet eventually. If I had my way this would already be ACE compatible and the Zombies would be eating all of us if we didn't work together because we would all be passed out from carrying 30 kilos while trying to run from a horde.

A grenade? Are you high. Actually looks a lot like a satchel. Frags are much smaller.

---Possible Extreme Hack---[Needs Fixing Imd]

GBU = Noobs shitting pants Actually that explosion looks smaller, but it could be farther away, I need blastcore to tell. Either way it's a hack. -
Barbed wire + Server Hopping = Broken
i wub pugs replied to Lazarus (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Answer: Then get off your ass and server hop too until it gets fixed. How?: Move to just outside where you want to be. Wait for save. Disconnect. Find new server. Go to where you want to be on the other server in the new server. Wait for save. Disconnect. Join old server. Take their shit. Btw, I think barbed wire is just stupid unless Zeds get stopped by it. Right now it's just pointless......... but one thing at a time. -
Firestations, apartments. I've found wood within 10 seconds of spawning on the coast. Yeah, I don't want to be on the coast, but I did answer your question didn't I?
-
The point is for you to die dude. You aren't supposed to live. Hopefully it comes down to a leaderboard where people can be really proud to live for like no shit 10 hours of game time. More gear for you to carry like cords of wood, matches, hatchet, food, drink, medicine, and whatever the fuck else Rocket can thing of means what................. ............less room for.................... Anyone??? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day Z, we will force you to make the hard decisions. Do I trust the guy over there because we could share a fire and some meat? Do I run off and die alone in the woods after a few days? Do I hunt and live a life of fear? Do I help create a new society? The starting point for making those hard decisions is limiting your resources while burdening you with more tasks.

The One, The Only: I HATE TEMP THREAD
i wub pugs replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I envision bandits and survivors coming together under a common roof to share a fire and some chicken soup. Who can care about the Zombie Apocalypse when we all have the sniffles? Btw, when I see wood, I grab it. -

Wildies vs Coasties. Which are you?
i wub pugs replied to dead ben's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I've been fucking around in Cherno and Elektro since that's where I've been spawning. It's like the fucking wild west there. I've never been because I've just been sensible and gone inland. I've shot 2 bandits and 3 survivors tonight. One survivor ran from my bullets right off the roof of an office building in Cherno........... thanks for the beans. Btw, I've died repeatedly. I was waiting on loot spawns in the Firehouse in Elektro when I walk my happy ass down stairs, oh hi Mr. bandit, 3 to the chest and down he goes. He had some nice starter gear including a map, compass and watch and a CZ as well as precious 1911 mags. But just as I'm about to get done organizing my new loot, there it is, another survivor in the side door, he freaks, shoots at me, I shoot at him, we both die. Cherno and Elektro are too hardcore for me. Yeah, I know people talk about how smart guys go up north (hell I do) but staying in Cherno and Elektro is like living in a bad movie about some terrible neighborhood. You can always hear gun shots, all that's missing is some raging car fires and sirens. Oh yeah, got my 3rd death to zombies finally. Fingers crossed for a Solnichni spawn. -
Since when is wood in the forest seasoned? I know bullshit excuse. Maybe Rocket can make it super prevalent.

i wub pugs replied to ihax's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hunger' date=' Thirst, Blood, Immune System. 4 things [/quote'] +Broken bones and the shakes. Imagine having them all at once. Say you get an infection by a zombie you have to cure it, but the Z also breaks your legs so you have to take morphine. All the while your bleeding, dying of thurst and need to eat something before you catch cold geting caught out in the rain. It's all good. We'll see how it plays out. You have a mouse wheel? Scroll to first healing option: Perform action Scroll to second option: Perform action Scroll...... you get the point Would you rather just have a health bar that regenerates? If so, there are more than enough games for you. Btw, this medical system is not hard. I've been in ACE servers where you just have to carry the guy because he won't wake the fuck up. And if you didn't know, ACE implements a weight system, so really, you end up having a whole squad of casualties from carrying the guy. Example: IED goes off Private dipshit goes down "Medic!" *stop the bleeding with like 9 bandages, give him 3 shots of morphine, pump him full of epi* "FUCK HE WON'T WAKE UP" "Just put him in the back of the Vic" Stop whining -
Catching an Infection? What do you think?
i wub pugs replied to ihax's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I think the ultimate goal is to kill all of us. And this is fine. It's not about having uber loot, it's about surviving, people are losing sight of that. I'd love to see dead bodies just randomly on the map with tons of loot because the died of a common cold. This should turn out to be some sick twisted version of Pandemic..........but reversed. -
Deerstands have military loot' date=' found an M16A in one of those. [/quote'] That's low tier. At least put in some weapons with optics. It's just strange that you can get an M14 EP1 at any fire house, but only get an M4A3 or just an M4A1 at the barracks. See how the helicopters work out.

Stuff changes the way you play
i wub pugs replied to calranthe's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I would agree. Lost tons of loot last night and you really are scared to lose your stuff, especially in my case where other players were to be the recipients of that gear. As soon as I spawned on the beach I started shooting at another guy with my Makarov just of kicks. The Makarov brings freedom. Every new bit of kit adds paranoia. -
