Yes to both. I emerged victorious in some earlier PvP but not unscathed, as well as the odd zombie punch but as I said I had fully healed between then and the Cherno incident and had the green 'healthy' status. So are you saying there is undocumented bone damage that is responsible?

A week or so, with 'healthy' status and completely pristine clothing.

With all due respect I will comment on any story I please, without insults or trolling people. Thanks.

Odd how the spawns go, that first time I saw one the other night, and then finding 6 last night in the space of a few hours. Same thing with Longhorns. Never found one before, never looked for one either but I found 3 last night, and another two UH-60s. Go figure. Feast or famine.

By all means if some people want this I hope there are servers to 'serve' your needs when DayZ goes live. I'm just saying it should not be a core feature.

Do you guys like whipping yourselves with scourges every time you die or something? I would never agree to a scheme that limited my play in a game I bought.

I found a Smersh backpack in the barracks by Zeleno last night, maybe someone dropped it, but it was there.

Anyone notice that you can refill the drum mag while it's still on the gun? Just found that out last night, pretty sweet. I'm not sure if it's a bug though.

Most servers seem to restart every two hours by design not by bugs. It's in all the greeting messages when you log in. I'd like to see much longer waits between restarts and respawning loot to make it unneccesary for anything other than performance issues. The only reason they restart every two hours is so loot can respawn.

Ah, then something is just janky because it looks all stretched out in the pictures. Does it look like that in game? If so then I'd find out what your monitor prefers to be set at. Could you have a 16x10 monitor perhaps?

Your aspect ratio is way off there bro, how can you play like that. Change your resolution to native!

I don't know about you but I'm uninstalling when I get home!

Last night I found 2 40 round and 4 30 round magazines for the M4 full with ammo at a crash site, but no M4. Found a AK-101 and a mag for it a little later. I emptied out the NATO mags and dumped them, fired off 200 5.56 rounds at zeds then lucked out again found a AKM and two 75 round drums in a barracks a little while later. That's the only heli I've found so far and it was just south of the NWAF tents.

The only problem I have with melee is how everything other than an axe isn't worth picking up or using. Why does a heavy pipe wrench take umpteen dozen blows to the head to kill a zed? Axes are doubly better as you can harvest wood for splints and fireplaces. Basically any melee weapon should be a one hit kill to the head, and no more than 5-6 to the body to bring down a zed. These aren't undead, they're living people and shouldn't be the hp sinks that they are.

My old mod group ran a similar ongoing operation at the old Sobor tents back in the day. We would have snipers up in the rocks on the hill, another covering the western approaches, another in the large metal barn and then a couple in town while the looters cycled the tents. We would actually allow lone wolves in escorted to take their pick from the massive loot piles that built up over the course of the day. Eventually it would get around that a organized group was holding down the tents and other groups would come to attack us. We usually held, had some great battles back in the day. There was also an industrial site in the middle SE of the map that we would camp/farm for car and heli parts. It was kinda in a depression surrounded by hills and we could post guys there to watch over us, though I recall one time we were really just wanting to get some parts so everyone was cycling. Of course we got wiped and our two UAZs stolen. :)

The forced costume change in the mod was stupid. It had no realistic justification and it could be bestowed on people who were just defending themselves but weren't hit by the aggressor. It served to take tension out of encounters with strangers and frankly I got shot at by any number of people in the default and hero skins. It served as a red badge of shame on players that either didn't deserve it because of self-defense and the absolute stark reality that this would be just a running simulator without hostile pcs. Man up people.

People are so obsessed with labels in this game, we're all survivors it's just the methods that differ. If it enhances one's survival to shoot any and all that cross their path then that's their choice and it's as valid as being a coastal carebear.

I have… seen things you people wouldn't believe… Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those… moments… will be lost in time, like tears… in… rain. Time… to die…

Ah my old nemesis. I just can't resist the opportunity to find damaged camo pants, an old helmet or ammo I don't need so I keep tempting the beast. ;)

I spent around an hour at the NWAF in a 35/40 1st person server last night and didn't see or hear a soul. I lost a little faith in the community. WTF was everyone? ;)

food and eating are broken atm. i'll stay hydrated running across the map but be starving 20 minutes after eating 3 cans of food.

I don't know if it's just bad luck on my part, but I haven't been able to get in more than 30-45 minutes lately till a restart. I join another server and maybe get the same. Loot farming aside (I don't see the big deal, it's fun to do with a group of friends and it's also fun to attack those doing it) we need respawning loot so sysops don't feel the need to jam restart every hour.

Huck a flare or glowstick at them and watch the panic!

Dowsing rods and supplication to the god of travellers.

You guys are pikers, agonizing over a death or two. Play some grand strategy games, you have the digital blood of billions on your hands. :)
