Why does this game have so many idiots?
i wub pugs replied to Kirvin's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If you want to help people, charity is a bad way to do it. Armed charity is better. My group is hunting bandits and helping individuals, but on the weekend we have more than 10 guys roaming around together. No one is going to mess with 10 or 12 guys moving in tactical column and engaging as fireteams. Find some friends to protect you while you do GOD's work. -
You can use TS, just be sure to map a different key to your TS push to talk so that it doesn't interfere with the game talk.

Every game has this topic: Females?

At least give us those hot Chernarussian bitches as zombies. You know the ones that look like strippers.......... and then give us the secretaries that also look like strippers. -
Flashlights and why you should start with them
i wub pugs replied to TheHappyPeanut's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This Really, half the Z Heads are begging for all sorts of stuff to help keep them alive... You know what a flashlight is? It's a giant arrow pointing at your chest. Flare? Throw it out and light up an area. Please please please add flashlights and I'll never be hungry at night. -
DLC for ArmA 3............. perhaps expansion for the price of OA when it came out, but obviously with as many features and improvements like OA brought to A2. Developed by BIS Run it the same all ArmA servers were run, unless BIS is now flush with cash and they want to set up servers for us.

Regular gives you the crosshairs and names and such. Veteran takes that away but still gives you 3rd person. Expert takes it all away, but really it's just removing 3rd person which is meh. Veteran is probably the best level imho. -
Playing as the dog in the Chernarus Apocalypse part 2 mission is fun as hell. Sooooooooooooooooo fast and you can bite zombies. Not very fun to play this mission without friends though. Dogs can't drive cars very well.

Click the first link in my sig to read how my group has been dealing with bandits, also my account of last night (all by myself) is on the first page too. I died twice to the same guy and once to Zombies............. guess what, I kept playing because I had a goal to survive and have some good gear for the next session. I spawned repeatedly near Drakon.......... within maybe 1 km area of coastline. This isn't ACE, you don't have range finders and a windage gauge, it's really hard to dial in range and shit with a CZZ in one shot. Even if I did get spawn camped I could run somewhere right away and probably make it. I've been playing for 3 days now and I've never seen spawn camping. So until I believe it actually exists, I can't comment on "why people do it".

Should this game get a kickstarter?
i wub pugs replied to PC101's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm down, but Rocket does work for BIS, and we have no way of knowing exactly what is going to happen with ArmA III and this. For all we know we could end up with a Zombie mode and this is just a test bed for it. Afterall............... BAF and the latest patches are just framework for ArmA III -
So zig zag all the way to cover. If you've never modded in ArmA or hell even made something decent in the editor, then you need to just chill out with these requests. It's one guy doing this, and he curses enough at you people always demanding more and more and more. I learned my lesson one time after I suggested some ACE implementation where he politely told me to "STFU about adding shit". Unless you want to set up a separate "Pay Rocket Extra Donation Fund" then you need to just deal with shit until something gets addressed. There are bigger bugs in the build than "spawn campers".
-
Rocket does work for BIS, and this shit is in Alpha, you guys are ruthlessly demanding for every little tweak when you're too damn lazy just to adapt. Umm, I've spawned in like 4 different places (haven't died too much). And it's a really big map with the woods like 100m away at any given time. Quit moaning and adapt.
-
Respawning would be like COD where you keep all of your shit and you just start over from a new spawn. In Day Z you are done, you start from scratch. Not quite respawning at all.
-
Is Rocket being paid for his efforts by you guys? What is his cut of the new sales? You also don't respawn. Your character is dead, it will never come back and you start over with a new character. Btw, what's wrong with this map? The buildings? Apparently you guys never leave the coast where there are tons of enterable buildings so what do you care?
-
You aren't going to see Day Z in ArmA 3 for like a year after release. I've never been spawn killed, and none of the 10 people I play with have either. The map is huge and the veterans go inland. I think this particular problem is way overblown and people are just moaning about an Alpha per the usual.
-
Or people could stop incessantly moaning about an Alpha.
-
It does if you look at it as changing the dynamic of the game to help people when simply adapting would help them enough. Adapt or fail. See my IED parallel in a previous post. I may not want it modded in, but I appreciate the fact that it can be modded in. You people are complaining about something that is part of the core game. Suck it up.
-
All of those horrors you just listed can be modified into the game. This is why "some" people play ArmA. It's for maximum realism. I've shot women and old people in the game because they could've been suicide bombers. I've also played as Takiban and conducted what many would consider to be terrorist acts. You do things in ArmA that would get any major AAA title slammed in the press.......... see the MOH debacle when you could play as the Taliban. This is ArmA, stop trying to warp the engine into some sort of noob friendly game. Day Z has already gone the opposite direction of most mods for ArmA........... that is to make the game easier for new people.
-
This isn't your normal MMO or FPS. This is ArmA, adapt or fail. If you hop into an insurgency server and I'm camping 100m outside of your spawn with IEDs strung all over the place, are you going to cry because I blow you up over and over?
-
I can always use more beans or bandages. Get away from the coast. This mod brings out the best and worst in people, that's why people are flocking to it. Some people are going to just shoot you because they can. Not all human beings are naturally nice. They are nice because they have to be in society. The point of this mod is simulate the loss of society. You can function in many different roles. One of those roles is preying on the weak for no reason. It happens all the time in the real world. Ban it? Hell no. But I can't say I'd want to be friends with the players that are doing it.

[An Ode to Rocket] Stopped playing PC games 6 years ago. Dayz brought me back.
i wub pugs replied to Nickisis's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This review makes me sad because it's not like ArmA is a new game or anything. Dear Day Z Heads, Please stick with ArmA through the inevitable bugs and terrible reviews for ArmA III. It may take a year and a half to get the game right, but when you put it up against virtually any game from ANY genre, the title is head and shoulders above. Let's all make the ArmA community bigger and better. Day Z has helped open the eyes of thousands of new players. I just hope you guys stick around to get this niche title the respect it deserves. ~Pugseh -

Dude, can you give us like a Pacific Time -2 setup? Sucks getting home at like 6 pm Pacific Time and always being stuck in the dark. -

Haven't been able to get in the server yet even though it's the only one in my time zone (California). Is it on our local time or what's the offset. I'm so tired of logging on at like 6pm Pacific time to be stuck in the dark on every server. Maybe roll it back like -2 hours from the Pacific time zone??? Please........... -
I'm shocked Rocket was even able to get any sort of skin swap since that was never in the original game without backing out and selecting a different slot. You guys are asking for too much from the mod.
