    I don't normally hack...but

    It's just too easy...and I have little self-control.

    OP gets my beans for using the expression 'doggy-dog world' and making half the internet loose their mind over it.

    My secret for a quick gear up

    I support OP 100%. This mod is in a state of perma-incompletion as it's intended state can never be reached - hence the locked down standalone on the way. So at this point all bets are off, maybe people should stop seeing these unfixable exploits as a bad thing and should start treating them as features. Embrace ghosting, pretend it's a built-in game mechanic allowing you to teleport via other dimensions, pretend it's Portal, whatever. This mod is afterall a sandbox. I thought they idea of a sandbox was that there were no rules and you play with the mechanics which are available? Well let them use the mechanics to have fun, they will anyway no matter how much you QQ.

    No one goes up north anymore..

    Last time I ventured North two bunnies sprinted past me, turned into players and shot me just South of Novy, huge waste of 30 minutes. There is so little incentive to go north just now, if I spawn near Berezino then maybe. There's plenty of duped/scripted gear hanging around down south too. I'll probably not get around to going North again until the standalone drops.

    Excuse My Excitement

    That's probably the ideal loadout IMO, though some would opt for a DMR/other sniper rifle in place of the M14.

    Excuse My Excitement

    I like it for silent zombie take downs but if you have a M9 SD instead you're golden.

    What happens if you get caught Hacking?

    I heard that if you hack you go blind and grow hair on the palms of your hands...

    Ping Reducer?

    No you can't do it with software. I've heard of people using ping spoofers, not sure how they work or where you'd get one though. They don't fix your ping they just disguise it for the server. In any case playing with that level of ping is ridiculous I wouldn't recommend trying a ping spoofer either it will probably just get you banned from a lot of servers. You need to get better internet, that's the only fix.
  9. Yes to this, snipers are faced with disproportionately less realism then the rest of the survivors and that is bad for both groups of players.

    Wind

    What do people think about adding wind to the game? Lot's of people love to snipe, and lots of other people love to not get sniped so adding wind could be beneficial to both. Snipers get greater challenge, survivors get lower challenge. I'm actually surprised that a military simulator doesn't factor in wind already. Would also make piloting choppers more interesting.

    Wind

    Nice, that suggestion gets my beans.
  12. I think trying to survive is ridiculous when there are so many scripters and broken game mechanics that it's no longer rewarding to work hard and then have it all lost to something that isn't part of the game. So from a survivalist perspective then yes the game is a waste of time. But I have changed my playstyle and now I don't try to survive to any great lengths and treat the game more like a sandbox, that is still rewarding and enjoyable. Thankfully. If you can adapt this game can still be fun, but if you're attached to the survivalist aspect I think you're SOOL for the mean time.

    The one bug that may make me quit.

    I don't play seriously any more and this game is still a lot of fun.

    Peculiar Discovery

    More like a scripter leaving his mark.

    Soldier Camo(Suit)

    Pretty sure both that truck and soldier suits are scripted (implying you didn't know that when you saw 24 of them).

    Made fun of my age, dead in seconds.

    You can look forward to more of this teenage angst when DayZ comes to consoles.
  17. Maybe he will workout a way for all you penny-pinchers to pay in beans. How much do you normally pay to be entertained for hundreds of hours? If it's less then £/$30 you're doing it wrong.
  18. He's going to charge a pittance for the standalone and then an even smaller pittance for the future maps. Suck it up. It's a brilliant idea from my perspective, better then charging you more all at once for a game that might turn out to be a total PoS. But people who want everything for free are always going to complain whatever the price.

    Your Funniest DayZ Moments?

    Today I was in Elektro and spot a bandit heading to the office which is where I'm heading so I say over the voice coms "There's a hacker in there dude I wouldn't go in there!" and he backs off of the door. Meanwhile I run towards the ladders on the side of the office, only he had followed me round the side and didn't take kindly to my deception :D . He swings at me as I climb up. He gets a hit on me but waits below, meanwhile on the roof I hit the jackpot as there is a body right at the top of the ladder, and in his hands a .50 cal. I take it and immediately run down the stairs, out the front out and turn the corner to find him still waiting at the bottom of the ladders looking up. I stop dead once I round the corner, he sees me and I start slowly walking towards him and I say "IT'S PAYBACK TIME!" over the mic. He shits his pants and runs all the way to the fire station ducking and weaving all the time me following him and spamming .50 cal rounds all around him. His reaction was fucking priceless. Unfortunately the whole server went down just as I actually put him in my scopes and I re-spawned without the M107 otherwise it would've been the perfect ending.

    Why 1 type of Helicopter?

    I was fantasizing about having a Chinook which you could drive motorbikes/ATVs into the other day. Now that would make shit interesting. Like has already been said the Chinook is notoriously unreliable though and wouldn't last long without engineers. Take On Helicopter has a large variety of Helicopters available and I wouldn't be surprised if they added a civilian heli into the standalone.

    OMG! AWESOME DOGS!

    That's some good eating!

    Trust no one?

    Just got done dieing in Elektro. Some douche shot me and I was down to 4000 blood so I had to run and kill and eat 3 boars before I try to take him out. When I got back into town the server had whittled down from the 40 or so to about 10 of us. So I was trying to gather barbed wire and tank traps to make a maze but none (literally none - I checked every single industrial building) had spawned there was like 60 car parts and tons of jerry cans instead. So the guy I wanted to revenge kill is gone, I have no parts to make a maze and the place is desolate. I'm bored. I run to the firestation and wait for the crack of sniper's bullet hitting me as I climb the tower, only it doesn't come. Been a while since that's happened. I grab an AKM and M9. Then I pickup Camo Clothing from on top of the office, nice, the place is loot city. I then spot a friendly heading into the church and say 'friendly' over the mic, he says hi back and keeps speaking saying something to me over the mic (he had an accent so I couldn't quite decipher his what he was saying). I run past the church as the accent is putting me off, I can't get a good read on him. I run out of reach of him and realize that it's pretty damn suspicious when someone you don't see says friendly and then disappears, so guessing that he's aptly paranoid I decide to have some fun with him. I light a path to the office building with flares and get up on top of the hospital to watch. He follows the trail to the office building like a lamb to slaughter, I couldn't believe it. I have no intention of killing this guy but I do want to freak him the fuck out for my own amusement. He goes out of sight behind the stair well on the roof of the building and I stand up quickly to throw another flare onto the roof of his building. He turns towards me just as I prone again, he saw me. At this point I figure he is pretty mystified and anxious, so I shoot a few shots over his head. For whatever reason he stays on the roof thinking that the lip at the roof is plenty cover. So I take another few shots but he stays fucking up there. So I climb down get on the hill to the east and fire my M9 around him, thinking he's so new he won't know gun sounds yet. He stays up there! So I go to the cafe and shoot some more above him. Still he lays on the roof thinking he's safe, probably because I've fired probably 20 bullets is way and he hasn't been hit. Then I pickup a few piles of firewood and light them downstairs in the office for my own amusement 'I tell him to stay warm and then leave'. I spot some more wood in the supermarket and go get it only he shoots me with his Enfield and kills me with the 4th shot. Then he starts shouting at me saying 'YOU IDIOT YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DIE!!' I laughed pretty hard. He definitely needed the gear more then I did anyway. Edit: Forgot to relate the story back to OP's point: I not only won't shoot you if you're not a bandit but I will actually attempt to teach you DayZ life lessons in a practical manner, even if it costs me my life, and the lesson is mostly about amusing myself.

    Gamescom - Aug 2012 - Interviews

    Not sure about this underground shit. Treehouses would be amazing, but that qualifies as building I would guess, which is out for just now for the instance based stuff. Maybe in a future release. The idea of buying new maps appeals to me, as does starting with a cheap locked down version while the user base builds and features get added. I think rocket is going the absolute correct path with this.
