Sure. I agree. I do agree totally, and I am not from the US. But torturing those guys makes you an worse animal and faggot then they are. Just kill them. Easy and simple as that. Torturing for information is something else thought. That's legit IMO. But torturing for the sheer joy of it.. you gotta ask yourself if you got abused by your dad when you were a kid (talking in general, no offense) lol Peace. Back to topic: As I said,

Your argument would be valid if it wasn't for the other 1 million bugs and glitches that have to be fixed. The debug monitor came in handy to see if you got a kill or not. You had to use it because players tend to freeze in a standing position even if dead. You didn't see Player killed messages sometimes even if you shot the guy 5 times in the head. etc. etc. Why would it be so bad to see how much zombies you have killed and how much headshots you made in your life? I don't see how this is making the game easier or directly influencing the gameplay. It's just stats that are fun and good to have. As for the zombie count, alright I agree take it out together with bandit kills and murders and just add "Kills". Since we got different skins now we obviously can see if we shot a bandit or survivor or here. Unless you fix player glitching at death, the kill count on players should stay. And I think if we are to remove the debug monitor then the GUI we have left should be changed. Making it go through 3 stages rather then slowly fading into red since its hard to tell when it is actually pure red and starts flashing. I'd make it like changing colors from/to green/yellow/orange/red rather then fading into red. Orange could be marked as REALLY HUNGRY/THIRSTY and red would be starvation. But those are just my suggestions. Other then that, as I said. Until the player glitches and other bugs are fixed, the debug monitor just helps us out to even our chances against the glitches.

Of course we don't wait for starvation and dehydration in real life to go eat or drink. But we do it when we feel "hunger" or "thirst". Which isn't the case in the game then. You said that we will get visual and audio clues when we are in desperate need on food and water. Where did you hear this in first place? I didn't found any info on that. But, by that time already, if you don't consume food/water immediately you will start loosing blood after a few seconds. So what we really need is a system that will let us know when we are HUNGRY/THIRSTY rather then near starvation or dehydration. Looking at the hunger/thirst bar that we have now, helped us to plan in advance. To get a feeling on how much time we have left till we need consume food. The new system then should have a warning/hint that tells us we are hungry/thirsty and then we know we like have not much time till those values drop deadly low. As for the blood. 9 out of 10 bleeding's you won't realize in 1st person. And DrWho got a point, because he might be playing only on hardcore servers with 3rd person disabled. Like me sometimes. I find it more realistic and people can't look behind walls and corners while leaned to a side and glitching with their head through the wall. That's ridiculous. I agree there on the "I'm fucking bleeding" hint LOL Peace.

Thanks for all the fixes. BUT I don't wanna sound like an asshole, but for each new fix, another bug/glitch appears. The artifacts are gone now and tents are saving, but the most important thing in the game, our hud, is fucked. Now I have to go through pages of menu browsing each time i wanna open the debug monitor and see whats my blood status, how many zombies are spawned (to see if ppl are around cities) or if I got a kill when I shot someone down (and most likely while I'm browsing my hud menu that guy will be conscious again and pop my head) ... And me being a dumb fuck did download and install this right away before checking on peoples reporting the results here. Gonna switch back to 1.7.2.5. I anyways got rarely artifacts with the previous version and I don't care about tents saving or not since I don't got any myself, I plunder other tents when I come across. Cheers.

Please YES. Zombies can go through them and players just place them for griefing. AND I sometimes still get graphical glitches from them. There is not 1 valid point to have them. They can't protect from zombies and block loot places. You see great loot in there and you are forced to go on another server into the building then log off and go back to get your loot. It just forces server hoping. No use at all for them for anything else.

LOL those wannabe pro snipers. This is a fucking trade topic, why the fuck do you go around telling him what to use and how to use. If someone wants a lower tier sniper rifle that doesn't necessary means he is a noob and needs a lecture on sniping. Jesus when I see what sort of people are out there, I get the need to go amok and rape their parents for letting them grow up into a pile of shit. Back to topic: If I find one, its yours for free. I didn't see any lately as well. I remember when I started playing DayZ I used to come across them on a regular basis, but in the last 2-3 months never saw one. Only once on a player I killed but I have an AS50 so I didn't pick it up. And I know why you want it. Ammo is frequently easy to find. And I used to counter snipe guys on the rifles max range. Once you played with it for a while, you can own with it any AS50 and higher tier sniper rifle using faggots, like myself. Peace!

One of the best medic/help related threads ever, besides the TMW one. I think this will help out a lot of guys, both Medics and Patients. And yeah this needed to be said, because a lot of people just post "I need help." and that's it. And a lot of Medics reply only with "Hey read my Signature for info." instead of rather contacting the patients directly themselves. Hope to roll with you soon again Duke, good luck with joining TMW, your almost there :) Peace!

This would not help you out at all. Because all you have to do is to set the video settings to low or very low and there is almost no grass. I have a shitty PC and I play at low settings. Everything is set to low or very low except "video memory", its set to high. And I see grass only 30m around me, the rest is a flat, blank green/yellow texture on the terrain. So I can see anything clearly that is not a tree or a bush. You see, I guess the same will be possible to do in the new engine. So yeah.. Worst thing is, people use shitty graphic settings to have an advantage over others even if they got a 10k gaming rig. Only a few of us use low settings actually because we can't run it on high. I managed to figure out what mostly makes the grass disappear or makes it way sparsely rather then dense. Its the "Object Detail" setting. If you put it to very low, together with the terrain quality set to very low, you have no grass at all, while the other settings can stay maxed out. That's hilarious.

If I just spawned and have nothing. Sure, I can team up with strangers. For a while. Then just get lost after we helped gearing up each other. And in a sneaky way, him not realizing that I left him, so I won't be shot in the back. I think if you wan't to team up with strangers in the game, do it while you are without gear. Run towards a player with a gun and call friendly. If he doesn't shoot you and helps you out to find a weapon. You know you can trust that guy and then roll with him for a while or forever. But it is hard for me to see a guy running towards me yelling friendly, while I am fully geared, and he is too. Just try listing the possible ends for this scenario. You get it I believe. There are more bad ends on this list then good ones. Therefor If someone runs towards me and yells friendly and he has a weapon. I just run to cover where I can see him while being behind a wall or something, then I say stay away from me. I don't want to team up, just move along. If he insists on coming towards me around the corner. Hi is dead. Simple. I am neutral and I have my own friends to team up with. If it happens to engage someone while I play alone, I don't need to team up. And a fair warning to move along and leave me be, if ignored, results in a death for the other guy. Simple as that. And Yes, I am a medic/escort but that doesn't necessary means I will lower my weapon and team up with everyone that I run across in game. No.

I lol'd hard. Twice.

You said yourself that blood at or below 60% requires medical care. Then you want to add blood regeneration to the game? To make it more fun? Clearly go play WarZ then when it comes out. The games difficulty is JUST PERFECT as it is. Only thing that needs to be fixed are bugs and glitches. Graphical, inventory related and other stats bugs. Tents duplicating things etc. The difficulty is PERFECT. It is a survival game at the very end. Lets not turn it into a fucking arcade. The game is what it is, and attracted all those people because of its unique difficulty and engine. If you don't like it then go buy another of the upcoming idea stealing fuck games. Whats next? COD kids crying about not having commando perks in the game, and we shall add them then? "Hey let me use my commando perk to stab the zombies 100m down the road in the town, then enter a zombie cleared town and loot all the stuff, YAY!" Jesus fucking Christ.

What makes this game so fun to play and your heart pounding like crazy in every firefight, its the unforgiving setup as it is now. After one week of playing already, it is pretty easy to find loads of food and medic supplies. It is easy to find the basic tools to hunt animals and cook meat. Which can restore your health easy and fast. Stop with the suggestions to make this game a walk in the park. Its a fucking post apocalyptic zombie game, depending on a realistic engine, made for a realistic combat simulation. Pretty much everything in the game is real life related. Having the need to eat and drink. Breaking bones if falling from higher heights. Being in a shock if hurt or going unconscious. Dying by a well placed shot in the upper chest and instant death if getting shot in the head. Pretty much everything is realistic. AND THEN... LETS ADD IN HOURLY BLOOD REGENERATION! FUCK YEAH! Are you people dumb or what? Yeah, lets also replace the zombies with pokemon and give everyone pokeballs instead of weapons.. Dafuq..

You need a "partner in crime" , yet you post it on the Survivor HQ ... trololo.

He was unconscious and couldn't help out himself, and he was bleeding. I bandaged him, revived him with epi-pens, gave him blood and painkillers. Basically the full treatment. He didn't shoot me in the back and is a good and trustworthy guy. Thanks for the testimonial on the other topic SeizeTheDayz. Peace mate.

No problem man, any time again :)

Hey mate, I fixed him already. Peace.

Hell of a job, it means there are at least 3 guys. Two looting and 1 providing sniper cover, but most likely its a bigger group, because Stary has a lot of flank options. I believe 3 looters and 3 snipers are the minimum that is required to max loot those tents in Stary safe. Well, the therm "safe" is just imaginary here.

We don't even know shit about the standalone. We don't even know if it will use the ArmA 3 engine or something else. We don't even know what the world will be like, what is new in it, and anything else. No one really says a thing about the standalone. Only thing we ever heard about it, is that it might be out before Christmas. Now excuse me but for a game that should be released in less then 4 months, I believe some more information to the fans would be much expected and appreciated. So people please don't, just don't always reply with a fucking sentence like : "Oh they don't reply on this forum anymore and/nor fix any bugs because they are focused on the standalone." This all is fucking ridiculous to me at the moment. No one gives out info on the standalone, no one gives out any patch notes for the next patch that should fix at least 50% of the things in this game for us to enjoy it with pleasure. Nor does anyone answer questions about bugs anymore. And don't come again with useless talk like "Don't expect updates to roll out on a hourly basis" , because MOST of ALL THE bugs in this game are consistent since the start, which is MONTHS AGO and I don't see a legit reason for them not having them fixed by now. Long story short, after the last patch everything just seems to stand still, no info about DayZ as it is now, no info on the standalone. Nothing. Dafuq is happening? Haters, flame away.

If you are not standing good in terms of money, I suggest you wait for the standalone version which should be out before Christmas. As for DayZ right now. Its an alpha version. People die by glitching over fences, through doors, climbing ladders. Zombies ignore fences and closed doors and walk through them. Hackers are not that much of a pain in the ass, it just depends on your luck whether you meet 10 hackers in 10 minutes or just 2-3 in 4 months like me. Graphical artifacts and bugs appear in some areas making your screen totally grey and the game unplayable at some point. Stats glitching, player skins randomly changing, loosing backpacks sometimes when changing from hero to bandit or applying other clothing on you. Now as for the Experience in general. If you buy it, you will not care at all about those minuses I just listed, because the game is seriously addicting. You will find yourself playing for hours each day. The standalone should have all those things fixed, but if you have the money to get both, then go ahead buy ArmA 2 Combine Operations for DayZ. you won't regret it, even tho its a buggy world you will enter. Besides, you will still have the ArmA 1 and 2 itself. Playing military missions on multiplayer and having fun. Well, peace out.

I get the point. But I can sound older while being just a 15 year old. Therefor I can lie about my age. - Ever thought of that? I do also get the point that some of the younger guys act more mature then older ones, but those are 5 out of 50. I have personally experienced a lot of younger guys not being serious when the situation needs it, like in a firefight. As I said, there are also 16+ aged clans. And to be very honest. No matter how much mature you can be, I just don't feel like playing a Survival/Combat game with 12,13,14,15 and even 16 year olds. You have to look at it like in real life. Do 25 year old guys hang out with 16 year olds? I don't think so. Now, do you get my point? Everyone searches people with similar age for the most best experience. Peace.

There are a lot of 16+ clans too. You have to understand that some people that are like me, 24, don't bother talking to 16 year olds or even to younger players.

Great stuff. This has to happen more often. Beans to OGSweg!

Honestly, without any offense.. You must be dumb as hell trading at the power plant next to the fires tation right beneath the "Sniper Hill" in Electro.. Besides, trades are made in player empty places on player empty servers or servers with low population. However that story of yours is insane. Nice counter sniping. Peace!

That looks awesome. Basically what is wrong with the current inventory are just two things. And you built both in your inventory which is great. Those are: 1) Yes, backpack should be always visible at all times. Saves time and is easier to overlook all items. 2) The most helping thing. DRAG AND DROP. That combined with the all time visible backpack stuff just makes everything PERFECT!

Thanks a lot Coke, feel free to contact me whenever you need help again. Take care, Peace!
