Winning fights where you have big disadvantages.
Autonomous replied to khaenz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My most recent experience with this was on a private hive, I really dont remember which one but it was a chernarus server with some custom buildings and vehicles. So a friend of mine and I found a Bi-Plane at the NE airfield and decided to troll cherno with it. So I fly over to cherno and start doing barrel rolls and loops and all the things you shouldn't do at low altitude in an airplane if you have any desire to continue living. Sure enough after our first pass we start taking incoming fire. This had very little effect on us as I crashed while doing a barrel roll over town and managed to kill us both with out any help from the people who had decided to fire at us. So we both re-spawn miraculously we both get a cherno spawn, run over to the crash and grab our gear whilst under heavy sniper fire. This is when I realized that these snipers must be working in some sort of weird click or at least with an agreement not to shoot each other. I know this because while cowering behind the plane wreck I was able to spot two of them and could clearly see that they had line of sight on each other. any way. We run from our wrecked plane to the hill that runs along side the road that leads into cherno from the west. Almost immediately the third sniper begins to shoot at me from what I reckoned at the time was fairly close range. I dive for cover behind a near by tree. My mate is east of me and hasn't been fired on yet. As I peak around the tree I spot the wookie just up the hill from me. I guide my mate in to flank him as the wookie has me rather pinned down at this point. As my buddy approaches him the wookie turns and begins to fire at him. I leap out from behind the tree and send a healthy burst from my ak at him. This kills the poor wookie but apparently enrages a near by friend of his. A second wookie blows my buddy's head off with a dmr from the road at the top of the hill. I creep up the hill moving from tree to tree until I see his head peaking out from some cover at the top of the hill. We both lean over, staring at each other in abject horror for a split second. Knowing that what comes next will not be a pleasant experience for one of us. I fire first, a clean sequence of shots hits him before his poor wookie mind can process what needs to be done. He is dead now and it doesn't mater anyway. So at this point I am sighing with relief as I have just survived two very close calls. I creep up the rest of the hill to check their bodies and, yes you guessed it a third person begins to fire at me with an m4. He hits me twice and i run for the trees north of the road. I bandage and begin looking for him through the trees and brush in front of me. Low and behold this guy is marching across the same field I ran through and is almost straight lining my position. at this point I'm saying to my self "Ok these guys are just stupid." I wait until he lines up with me and I fire. He must have been on some low blood because it only took two shots to put him down. This set of events also gave me a new and healthy respect for the cobra as a close to medium range weapon. It did everything I wanted it to and I'm sure with almost any other gun I would have had a harder time. -
meh Nvg's arent really that hard to find tbh but, I hate to be the one to spread the news because I'm sure this will get me some hate, turn up gamma in arma and night becomes day in black and white. So the issue is really irrelevant as any one who has played this game for any amount of time and just wants to kill people at night will probably be doing this, you gota keep in mind that when bandits are just out to have a dm they dont care about the atmosphere of the game, so having some level of suspense wandering through the dark means nothing compared to seeing some one and shooting them to these people.

Winchester too common - Other low end gear too rare.
Autonomous replied to cat (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
need to add 22. lr pistol and rifle and make those the most common, that ammo can probably be found just about anywhere there are gun owners at this point and its so cheap that you could justify large stock piles of it in an average gun owners home. -
There are way to many variables when it comes to crossbows to really comment with any real world experience on how the one in game handles but I will say that I agree with the ammo comments. What I'll suggest is that rather than universally changing the way the ammo works in game is that a quiver item should be added to function like another back pack if possible in a regular inventory slot. For players who like the crossbow this adds another prize to find and will allow them to specialize their characters more. Your average crossbow bolt is probably around 400-500 grains which is only about .05 lbs so if were talking about being able to carry them by weight the current system is really very flawed.

This should probably be explained to new players some how, because I know the first time I got shot I rage quit right away and when I came back to the game several hours later my character was still alive, this was in no way my intention I just didnt realize it would happen.

Your first time being a bandit.
Autonomous replied to Alex LWG's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Shot a man in the neck from 500 meters away with A DMR, he wasn't a bandit but I didn't like the look of him one bit. He was going through the body of a dead player and I could see in his eyes he was thoroughly enjoying him self..a bit to much if you had asked me. God only knows what that savage would have done to me. I decided not to take any chances and I snuffed him out, he never felt a thing I'm sure. I dont often actively hunt players but I dont exactly ignore them either.
