Dayz all about realism? Take out the HUD
*Regulator* Jackeroo replied to nabehobby's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
You've got to find a balance between fun and realism, for its genre I believe Battlefield 3 did well on this. I understand that the realism is partly the fun in this game but there is a line. Removing the HUD is just silly, it's an essential part of the game and actually helps you survive. I mean it's not realistic to die of hunger because you didn't know you were hungry. If you were going to take away the HUD completely there would have to be plenty of visual indicators, and sounds as well such as your belly rumbling or your player stumbling if he is tired. -

Looking for a group, potentially a clan.
*Regulator* Jackeroo replied to Tang's topic in Clan / Group Recruitment
Well if you are looking to play hero, then consider clicking on the link in my signature. :D We're a fairly big group, made up of like-minded players and we usually have a few vehicles in our camp to use. If you want, you could type in regulator on YouTube, a couple of us have made videos on the kind of thing we do. -
Feedback on status of infectious diseases in DayZ
*Regulator* Jackeroo replied to rocket's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I love that idea, then there would actually be some real value in players. For example, in a group of your average bandits, a couple of people have caught a bad disease. They spot a doctor, and instead of killing him straight away, they hold him up and ask for his help and expertise. Also, maybe we could do that with other things. Let's say someone becomes a skilled mechanic by reading pamphlets and books he's found. They find a couple of players with a problem concerning their car that they can't diagnose or fix. The mechanic then sorts out the car and moves along... This kind of thing might include ammunition forgers and possibly, for base building, plumbers and carpenters if you want to make something more advanced for your house. BUT, I can imagine some fantastic sabotage situations coming from this idea. So those couple of players that needed their car fixed are found by the mechanic. The mechanic fixes their problem and secretly plants a car bomb in there. The car bomb thng would probably need some very advanced skill though to stop trolls sabotaging everything. -
How do you play DayZ?

Bambi? I'll save your ass. Bandit? I'll lay down my machine gun bipod and lay down the fire on you. -
Hi there! If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to trade a MK48 for an AS50, I can negotiate if you want, I have other supplies I can trade. Also, I'd maybe like to help you out every so often, I'll PM you.

It's just so fun riding the motorcycle, especially the one with flames on it! -
Scariest moments in DayZ?

Namalsk at nighttime. That thing is made of nightmares. -
Everyone is a bandit on Namalsk
*Regulator* Jackeroo replied to Rick the Survivor's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Most of the people I've encountered on namalsk are friendly actually, more than Chernarus or Lingor I've found. Me and 3 other friendlies randomly met up and almost fixed a pickup until my old UAZ came bursting through the trees and towards the warehouse, one of the friendlies nicked it and drove off and a bandit killed the other two who was then picked off by me with an M14. -
I think this a nice idea, and balanced with being bigger target, louder, etc. But I also think that the horses would have to rest after a while, and eat at some of the hay bales that can be found around a few of the DayZ maps, particularly Chernarus. Also maybe you could shoot a sidearm while mounted on it, but it would be more inaccurate the faster you're going.

That was awesome, and that's a lot of loot. Have you destroyed or lost the uaz yet? :P -
Thanks for the m14 and silenced pistol :)

M9SD isn't terribly good to be honest, I'd keep an M1911 unless you're that sneaky type. -

Erm. I'm Fairly Sure This Wasn't Supposed to Happen.
*Regulator* Jackeroo posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
SO, I'm lying down in a building in Cherno, waiting for a friend to arrive with a blood bag (I'm very low on blood at this point, 2100). Then suddenly I glitch through the floor, and I'm stuck there. I then realise that I am swimming. In the floor. So I switch to third person view to see what the f*ck is going on and I have turned into a pilot zombie. Yep. I said it. A PILOT ZOMBIE. I'm now losing blood at about 300 a second. Eventually I die. Not sure if this is one f*cked up glitch or some script kiddie hacker. But wow. -

*Regulator* Jackeroo replied to *Regulator* Jackeroo's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
But it's weird because it was around a 30 man server and then after I respawned, a ton of people had left. So maybe there was a hacker doing some wide-spread mischief... -
