    BANDIT? SURVIVOR? BAH

    Great, make me more paranoid about being a Hunter.

    Man... Those Lee Enfields...

    Is there any way I could give you an empty tin of beans that I used as a toilet? Where is that button?

    BANDIT? SURVIVOR? BAH

    The Hunter - Carries nothing but a sidearm, hunting knife, matches, hatchet and backpack. Trades/Sells/Gifts Raw/Cooked meat. Hey, I think I'll give this a shot tonight. Can't wait to get shot in the face while gutting a boar. :o

    The sad thing about this game...

    This game is too brilliant? It's a mod bro. If you are calling DayZ brilliant then you are calling ARMA brilliant by default. The game mechanics are basically the same. I'm not sure what you mean. A mod will be "hindered" by whatever engine it uses. ARMAs engine has its faults but there is a reason why the game mechanics haven't changed much since the original Operation Flashpoint. I'm serious. Go play Operation Flashpoint from over a decade ago. It is basically the same.

    Convert or DIE

    Have you guys really played any other ARMA mods or the original Operation Flashpoint game? It's a military simulation. Someone is supposed to be getting shot at. If its not that then its covert operations and destroying things without causing fire fights. The cool thing about Dayz is how it approaches these inevitable conflicts. Look at the community! They are making gangs, clans, groups filled with medics, mercenaries and such! If you ask me...Dayz is one of the most successful mods because it pulls in more than just avid milsim fans. I feel like not everyone understands how this game works and why. It seems like many expect this game to be something completely different just because it has zombies in it. I feel like the only thing that needs polish is the game mechanics and perhaps some more purpose or goal in the game. Missions involving supplying provisions to outposts. NPCs might not be a bad idea. It gives Bandits and Survivors things to do. Survivors attempt missions and Bandits ambush them.

    Suggestion for new map

    Considering how easy it is to create maps for a game like this...yeah I think it could be done without taking too much time from developing game mechanics. The idea of radiation is pretty awesome. I would like to have an area like that!
  7. Don't get me wrong. I love beans. Well, there are only so many cold, rainy nights where The Man can huddle around a makeshift stove and shovel sardine and bean stew into his gullet. Post a photo or description of what you would wish to find in the barren lands of Chernarus. I will start it off: Yum.
  8. Lower your video settings in game. Texture details, Object detail. Etc.
  9. The_Man

    Well I just uninstall this POS

    I understand your frustration. Unfortunately, you gave up on one of the biggest challenges in this game. It only gets easier after those first days of complete confusion. You should give it another shot because it is rewarding in a few ways.
  10. I like this idea. Different channels too! You could listen in on other peoples channels or maybe a good piece of loot is a signal jammer. That would be interesting!

    Everyone loves Raymond in Seattle 61

    Nice story. Wish I had a range finder. I'm not good at judging distance.

    Spread The Word: Surrender Key

    I'd rather shoot myself in the face than surrender to bandits. Cool video though. Instead of disconnecting (which is lame), there should be an option to shoot yourself.
  13. The_Man

    Snipers = Shoot on sight

    You should have just said "I'm so good at being evasive that I had to disconnect to prevent him from wasting further ammunition." Oh, how kind of you!

    Arma II CO give away RIGHT NOW!

    Megaman! Am I too late? haha

    How to gear up the easy way :)

    Oh my god, you have the coolest lewt can I please be your friend. Does anyone else have no trouble surviving with a 2 cans of beans, a canteen and a winchester?

    Download "The Shooting Range" Map for ARMA II. It is fantastic to test out weapons. Google it, I'm too lazy to copy pasta.
  17. 3 DMR rounds? Did he shoot him in his big toe or something?
  18. The_Man

    What hasn't killed you ?

    If you haven't been killed by someone else then you are missing out!
  19. The_Man

    What should our next competition be?

    I think the textures contest would be cool. Top 3 winners have their textures in the final version perhaps?
  20. The_Man

    In need of homie.

    I'm right around that area. I sent you a steam invite.
  21. The_Man

    Biggest loot lost

    a backpack full of beans
  22. The_Man

    Looking for a third wheel.

    I wouldn't mind tagging along. Tried adding you on steam. Couldn't find you on there.
  23. The_Man

    F*CK DAYZ

    Bye! More beans for me!
  24. The_Man

    I dislike lootmaps.

    What is a loot map?
