If you play alone you don't need the bloodbags/epipens. Good luck with NW airfield. I suggest you loot deer-stands or go to NE Airfield or Berezino if you prefer to live a bit longer. Decent loot and less campers there imo. Besides, NW Airfield is a lot more fun if you are already somewhat geared up with at least medium range automatic weapons or medium-tier sniper rifles.

DayZ Tutorial: How to get geared up quickly
Alpo replied to hockeywise@juno.com's topic in New Player Discussion
He saw a guy on the roof holding a bigger gun - a gun he wanted. Guy on roof asks him if he is friendly and he says yeah sure (whatever lol) please don't shoot me. "I come in peace" lol. The other guy should have warned him then shot him the moment he got too close. I mean what the hell was he supposed to do if he is not playing a friendly? Say no? Do you see the problem? If he says no he is dead. If he remains quiet he is probably going to get shot as well. So might as well play along. He didn't try to befriend the guy first or anything. Just a small reassurance that everything is fine before the inevitable BLAMBLAMBLAMBLAMBLAMBLAMBLAM! Asking other people if they are friendly is a very amateur way of dealing with strangers in DayZ. If you want to find out whether someone is friendly or not you will have to observe them for a while. Simply asking and then taking their word for it is just not a very smart move. It is true, there are some (many) people who find joy in betraying others in various and sometimes pretty scum-baggy ways. I don't think OP is one of those guys. Remember, he made a video to help new players? Complaining about people who do this will not make you a better player, nor will it prolong your survival. Adjusting to them however, will. Besides, only day 1 players are friendly in Chernogorsk. They get smarter. Eventually... -
In reality you have more stances than crouch prone and stand. You can stretch your neck, stand on your toes, climb over obstacles, dig holes, crawl on all fours, lay on your back. The game engine severely limits all those movement abilities we are so used to in real life. That is why using 3rd person to somewhat compensate for the lack of this kind of movement is not really a bad thing. And yes, if you prefer to have it off just use expert servers. Some veteran servers have 3rd person disabled as well.

Nooooo why did you get off the bus? Hilarious vid mate so sick :D I know you raged but it was so worth it since you frapsed everything. I almost died laughing when your friend gets off and is instagibbed by that jeep. beans+like Next time you get into a similarly shitty situation do not run. Stay where you have at least one side covered. Keep your back to the bus and take as many of the suckers down as you can before they kill you. I was praying you had a grenade in your inventory to lob at the truck and say astalavista baby.

I have no idea why I decided to try and enter through the 3 main gates. Some inexplicable urge to interact with the environment I guess ;) As others mentioned it is best to use the gap in the fence right by the sandbags along the road to the north-east of the camp. I don't go there anymore.

While you're at it go check out the 4 deerstands south-east of the air-field But don't enter the front gates ;) http://youtu.be/pNncoDULiM8

Seriously? It's an alpha man. Who cares if you die? Your gear is only temporary and given to you so that you can test it and figure out how everything works. You are a bug-tester so take off your pansy-panties and go fulfill your damn duty as a zombie killing hatchet weaving guinea pig. If you get killed you move on and try something new. Quit worrying about your gear or the game will not be fun for you.

You mean this? Fps have been improving a lot in the last few updates but artifacts are back. They used to be caused by barb-wire fencing I thought? My machine runs DayZ pretty well mostly I get 50-75 fps but yeah, hope this gets fixed soon. I'll try the flush command. http://youtu.be/ydF7lY-qxHo Specs Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit - SP1 Core 2 Quad Q9450 2.66GHz @ 3.20GHz (I know, right? lol) ATI Radeon HD 5850 (Catalyst 12.6) (Stock Speed ) 4GB DDR2 (yeah but they are fast as hell) 120GB OCZ Agility 3 SSD (holy shit PC boots in <12 sec now)

I like to play with it but I have not been able to "add" it to my regular pack. I was pretty certain that the only option is to completely replace the backpack. It has severe disadvantages obviously but not having a bulky pack on your shoulders has some pro's as well. Your silhouette is smaller and while crawling you look almost like a crawler-zombie to someone who is not paying attention. Basically it let's you blend in better with the environment and with zombies. It works I tried it back when you could imitate a zombie crouch-walk but I think they fixed the glitch where you were able to crouch-walk in a really creepy zed-like way. ;(

Since I die so frequently in this game I was thinking about starting a new video series. Something along the lines of "10000000 ways to die in DayZ" How about this one for starters? http://youtu.be/pNncoDULiM8

Nice shooting Tex! Bandits make dayz fun. PvP makes DayZ what it is. Without both those elements it becomes boring quickly. That doesn't mean you have to actively seek the PvP element but feeling it as a constant threat in the back of your mind is important for this game to be so scary. No bandits and this game turns into a picnic.

Nah man I was fine when I got back I had a short timer, 15 sec maybe. Blood was down to 1,5k but had morphine and bandages so no problem :P Back in the forrest hunting boar :)
