Or... heres a radical idea... you could just suck less? DayZ isnt meant to be an easy ride. If you want slow stupid zombies and starting with a weapon, go play CoD Nazi Zombies. Its MEANT to be a challenging experience, its really not that hard to avoid zombies... learn to be stealthy, or if you agro learn how to lose them. Plus hatchets are pretty much EVERYWHERE.

Whilst I like the idea of being able to claim buildings/apartments etc... No, because this isnt some shitty MMORPG, this isnt Skyrim, we dont craft items and level up your "locksmithing" and "burglary" skills or something. Also it would become another griefer tool... you know how annoying it is that people barb wire the entrances to lootable/important buildings? Now imagine how shit it would be if they could LOCK them too...

Have you ever played Xbox live? Then you know what its like when you give other people the chance to comunicate directly with you... endless waves of screaming 13yr old American kids screaming "OMG U NOOB U SUX HAXXXOR" and various racial/sexual slurs. Its a good idea... if we were in an ideal world where the only people who played this mod were people over 25.

Or you could use teamspeak/Skype like everyone else.

Currently the aggro range appears to be about 225km squared unless its night and youre crawling.

Tell you what, you try sprinting and shooting at the same time and see what happens. I guarantee it would be more effective to just throw the gun at the zombies.

Is that a Holo SD? o.O Im pretty sure thats hacked. I know you can get normal M4 Holo's but not silenced ones. On a similar vein, anyone know if the Mk12 SPR is hacked or new rare drop? They seem to be popping up everywhere.

Yeah, I was quite surprised the other day when I died, lost all my high end gear and just found a makarov... oh well I though, no biggie... then I got the drop on someone in Cherno supermarket, emptied the whole mag into them, they just turned around, laughed and blew me away with an AK. Yes I know I should have gone for a headshot, but my aim was twitching all over the place like a crack addict because I needed painkillers, so I (thought) I played it safe by sticking 7 rounds into them. I mean what the actual fuck? You tell me what person could survive being shot at near point blank range with a whole mag of makarov ammo. Also the M9SD is now fucking useless, takes about 5-10 shots to stop a zombie, getting headshots with it is impossible unless youre inside because the iron sights are shiiiiiiiiiiiite.

Yeah, its fucking terrible :/ it makes the game pretty much unplayable whenever you go near a town or airfield. Im pretty sure its caused by barbed wire but not 100% sure about that, some people also say its caused by crashed vehicles but cant confirm either way. Why Rocket doesnt just remove barbed wire altogether I dont know, its shit, it doesnt do anything other than fuck graphics up. It doesnt stop zombies, its just used as a griefing tool for covering EVERY building in barb wire so nobody can get in.

Whats with the suicide bomber vehicles lately? Everything seems to blow up at the slightest touch. I hit a lamp post at about 10kph and vehicle went from fully green to OH GOD EVERYONE OUT NOW ITS GONNA BLOW! ATVs flipping like gymnasts and exploding for no reason... Im sure they didnt used to be so explosive?

Unfeasible for several reasons: 1 - it would require a shitload of new animations and coding to be created, just so you can get kicks over killing someone in a more realistic way 2 - it wouldnt change anything, I dont care if some pixels are screaming at me, Im still going to shoot them in the face.

No..? Theres far more violent and gorey games out there than this little mod based on an ancient game. Even the PS1 era resident evil games had more blood and gore than this.

You were in the airfield and dropped your guard, theres your mistake :P

How is this "advanced techniques" ? All you did was run at him and swing the hatchet... I was expecting like some badass ultra hatchet ninja style techniques. 0/10

Im sure Ive heard radios are in the game already or will be added soon, but all they are is a number station that gives co-ords of crash sites. Cant seem to find any evidence to back this up but Im sure I saw it somewhere...

Both enough for an insta-kill, so who cares? Both of which are unfeasibly long distances to shoot in this game, if I remember rightly the render distance is only like 800 or so meters. So who cares? Theyre both pretty deafening and attract zeds from a huge range though, so who cares? Because British guns are better than american guns :P See Top Gear episode comparing Brit tanks to American tanks for proof :P (well to be correct I suppose I should say European guns rather than british, as the L85 was SHITE before H&K revamped it with efficient German engineering :P But anyway, the L85A2 will shoot the pants off an M4 ) Not sure about this one, I thought you could convert the mags?

You ever tried driving the GAZ (civillian car) offroad? :/ it already IS tedious and difficult, top speed of like 8kph off road, you can run faster. I disagree with this, if you dont suck its not too hard to find vehicles, its just a matter of hunting them down. Sure the map is a big place, but team up with a few friends, study the map and topography, figure out where camps are likely to be (have to be mostly flat to erect tents, dense trees to hide vehicles, cant be too steep or vehicles will roll downhill etc). Once you know what to look for its not too hard.

On our server (UK8) We have the default day/night cycle, it starts getting dark around 8pm, pitch black by about 9/10pm, then the sun starts to rise around 4/5am. At least Im pretty sure thats the default, admin hasnt said otherwise.

No. Because sniper scopes have sun hoods and lense screens to prevent exactly that happening, lens flares only happen in the movies and Call of Duty.

My regular server (UK8 ) was down, so I hopped to the next lowest ping server, which happened to be UK87. Running through the woods I stumbled across a UAZ hidden at someones camp. So I jumped in :D And took it for a spin around the NW airfield, where despite my friendly attempts to pick people up, I just got shot at :( So I thought "bugger this, I'll go see if theres any friendlies in Cherno!" So I blasted down the coast to Cherno, drove around and beeped at a few people, where again I got shot at :( Looks like theres no friendlies in Cherno. So I follow the main coast road up to Elektro, where on the way I stumble accross two survivors being chased by a group of zombies, so I run a few zeds over, then jump out and tear the rest apart with my M4A3 CCO on full auto. Now I expect they were wetting their pants, thinking they were next... as they were armed with one axe and one flashlight between them. But no, I beep my horn a few times and shout at them to jump in on direct chat. At first they were apprehensive, but seeing as they had nothing to lose really they got in. We had a nice chat, turned out theyd just been killed by bandits and were re-grouping. So I offered them a lift to Berezino, to kit them up with some military gear. On the way one decided to eject from the jeep as it was moving and broke his legs, I gave him my last morphine. Eventually we arrive at 'zino, to find the hospital had already been raided, I found one blood bag... despite needing it myself, I gave it to the guy who broke his legs earlier, saying Id come back for another one later. So we drove down near the tents, I had a DMR in my bag, so I told them Id cover them as they looted the tents. As they made their way into the tent, I recieved a volley of fire, breaking my legs and making me bleed out my already low blood. I knew I was done for, so with my dying breath I called out to them, "Sniper! Get out of here... Im dying, take the jeep its yours, I dont need it anymore" Then before I could get their names or contact details to meet up again, I died and lost contact with them :( I hope you read this, it would be nice to meet up with you again. Even if you got killed, I hope you at least found out not everyone on this game is a murdering bandit asshole.

Actually the title doesnt really say much at all? Are you looking for a server, or offering a server? Or... what?

UK7 you say? Ill be there! :)
