Lin (DayZ)

I enjoy using the controller for a few games. I played WoW on a Xbox controller, I might try this. It just comes down to what feel the most conformable. For me, sitting on the couch playing on my T.V with my wireless Xbox controller and headset is relaxing. My Big o' Lazy boy and controller. Yes I now I am more accurate, and it is less of a hassle sometimes using a K&M, but in the end, you play for enjoyment, so I do what I feel will give me the most enjoyment.

Me and my friend found a few As-50's and NV off two poeple we killed sniping eletro. So my friend though it would be a good idea to shoot innocent people running around trying to get basic supplies in eletro with no weapon. i told him lets not, but he insisted. So I told him "hey, i'll watch over you if you want to get on the top of the firehouse to snipe" Now, before we go on, let me tell you I HATE people who are over geared killing unarmed dudes. So when my buddy got on the firehouse, I lined up a headshot and killed his ass. Freaking prick trying to stomp over under geared players. He did not know it was me, and asked If I saw the sniper that killed him, I replied "Yes, he was on the other hill, but I don't know were" He spawned near eletro so I told him to go get his stuff, and if the other sniper fires, i'll find his location. So he runs right next to his body, starts looting it, then I shoot him again. He said "stupid fking snipers killing people in eletro, what f**s" I was laughing my ass off by now and he rage quit. He still did not know it was me to this day that shot him.

Me and my friend are looking for some people to go exploring with! We don't know that map that well, and we refuse to look at a online map. So anyone wanna join us and go exploring and get lost in the woods? send me a private msg and lets hook up on Teamspeak and have some fun! The bigger the group, the better!

Good post btw. I feel a few issues that really hurt the game is looted based. Loot cycling sucks to do, and is a chore, I bet a majority will agree with me on that. But what happens if you go to a store, take all the food and just leave behind empty cans? The stuff you took will respawn, with a chance of it being crap, and the stuff you left behind is still crap. If everyone just ran though each building the just took everything that Is needed, soon all the buildings will just be filled with undesirable items. I always feel, compelled to take all the loot out of a supermarket or firestation if I took some look, just so the next guy after me has a chance of getting someone thing good. I know people always tell you to run away from cherno or eletro, but these are the hot spots I tend to stay. It is exciting to interact with people, as I don't KoS, I do die a lot to random people, but that is okay due to the fact that all my gear is from the town itself. I do find friendly people and I help gather him/her supplies for the road ahead of them, and then see them off the town. I will always stay in town, making sure loot is fresh for newly spawned players.

Inventory is based on weight, not slots. Why can I carry 2+ engines in my backpack, but can only carry 12 epi-pens for the same amount of slots.

how IS this off topic? This is a discussion about Dayz and Private Hives.

FYI Duping does not work on a private hive (except for tents+server reset). It stops ghosting and people who Alt+f4, have no other server to get back on to. You can also get their name and make a mental note about that player. Get almost zero Desyncing issues. It's the way to play.

My magical bike and blue magical bus like to repair themselves. If I hit something, I get out, and get back in, it is repaired

This idea..I feel is VERY good. fuel depots should be few and far between in heavily populated places. Jerry can spawn rate more rare, and hold less gas. People would have to fight to refuel their cars, and fuel stations would make for GREAT ambush spots. This is Alpha, the place were big changes like this happen. EDIT: Would also like to see a tanker truck to be added in this case. A truck that can be filled with a huge amount of gas. Then you can use the gas to refuel our heli/cars/trucks. One per server though.

Rocket said he might loosen the grip on server rules. He made the hive to show that DayZ can be a MMO format. He even said private server are a good way to fight hackers, do Machinima, and help with streamers.

Who really cares it took them 5 hours to farm loot, when people can dupe it in seconds. Also, Rocket said he might loosen the grip on server rules. He made the hive to show that DayZ can be a MMO format. He even said private server are a good way to fight hackers, do Machinima, and help with streamers.

Whats is the Ratio of Private VS Public hives? If private hives are pulling less stress from the public hive, is that a bad thing? I know you can not collect resources from the private hive (unless there is a way, just tell the owners, i'm sure they will happy install what ever you need to collect data) but you do get the feed back, and personal experance from a Private hive format.

How is this bad? You should have watched your back before logging out. I mean, if you go to sleep at night in the wilderness were you know there is hostiles, would you not look around you before you bed down for the night? the screen stays on your character for the whole 10 seconds and you can cancel it if you start hearing shots.

You know what you do? You fucking kill everyone. Kill every last one of them, then get free pick of weapon/NV/Rangefind ect. Then ride off in the sunset with your new Heli, that will disappear when the server resets. That or you can Alt+f4 and log in with no weapons if you did not do it quick enough. Basically there is nothing we can do until it gets fixed, in the meantime, I plan to win every Thunder dome I "enter" as my gear depends on it!

DMR at night please.
