Metalhead (DayZ)

Findings vehicles and player camps are what keeps me going in DayZ. Otherwise, I'd be pretty bored up North.

This game is about survival. Team up with people you already know and are friendly with, not anyone else. You kill others as soon as you get the opportunity. Although, I don't kill newly spawned players, I just ignore them then. Anyone with a weapon is someone who is to out get me as far as I'm concerned. If you want to have a tea-party with some player who is holding a rifle, go ahead. You'll be getting a bullet through your head. As it has been stated before, if you expect someone to be friendly and you head up to them, get ready to go back to the beach. If you do this, you have failed at surviving. Hell. I've even by shot by a clan member before, as he infiltrated our group to gain access to our camps location. When I said he wasn't getting them, he shot me, luckily I survived. But this shows, don't trust anyone but those you know well. Ever.

Bumping this.

I was told of an unmarked island somewhere off the coast. If anyone knows, is this true? As I've heard it from a couple of people.

How many players currently have an M136 launcher? And how many players have ammo for it

From my experience it seems that if you save the vehicle before every server reser/crash. The gear within your vehicle is there. If a reset/crash happens and you haven't saved it, all the gear is gone. But the vehicle is still there. It seems that the vehicles will always remain where they are unless someone steals them or they are lost in a server/database glitch.

How many vehicles are at their original spawns? On say.. Any server really. Or an average would be cool too.

M16A4 ACOG 4 stanags GPS All tools Binocs FN FAL with (thermal scope?) inside my backpack. Revolver with 8 .45ACPs. I'm just working on getting NVGs and hopefully a rangefinder.

This is true, and twice I've been subjected to this. I discovered their camp. And I've been to it twice within 24hrs. Of course, once I met up with a friend, we made sure their camp was completely ransacked and plundered. Even the barbed wires and steel hedgehogs were gotten rid of. We also shot out the wheels of the remaining vehicles in the camp. All of this was 'retribution' for yesterday. When a similar incident happened. This is appalling behaviour on the server owners part, and I don't think it should be tolerated.

Burgh, i've added you know. I've also added you, Kenny. I hope it's the right one.

Thanks for the support. Also bawbag - I know what that actually means, do you?

I should have added you. We're a pretty relaxed bunch of guys, coming and going as we please. Just some extra info.

Hey. In the past week, I've formed an EU bandit group called [bAM] with some friends. (stands for 'bad ass muthaf*ckas). There's about 7 -12 of us at the moment. Most of us have been playing DayZ for a couple of weeks now, so I'd say we know what we're doing. Of course, we make mistakes, but that is just human. Of course, anyone who is sensible and respectful is welcome to join us. We use teamspeak whilst playing for organisation purposes. I'd also say we are generally friendly people. (good English and microphones are also a plus). Although, be warned. We are all bandits, so we will probably shoot on sight, so if PvP is not for you, then this group is probably not for you. If you want to join, or you just want to hang around with us, add Mars250 on steam, and I can give you the teamspeak details. No applications required, just common sense. And general politeness.
