Is this a trap for bandits? Or just a really stupid idea?
-
I am not a native speaker myself, so I hope my writing style and grammar is not too bad. It is supposed to be one (rocket said so many times), only the player made it to a diffrent kind of game. I'd also rather have it more a sim, but that's just personal opinion.

Loot that always seems to avoid you...
Atanar replied to LastPatriot's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The PDW. I know it's not the ebst sidegun, but it's my favourite one. I had it once, but couldn't find it again even thogh it's supposed to be not that rare. -
No Serverhopping? Give us more places with best loot!
Atanar replied to Heru's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'd rather say: Remove every gun that is better than the CZ and the AK-SU (cause those op guns don't fit the scenario anyway), and make only non-weapons rare. -
My ATV has come home, after missing for a week from a server restart
Atanar replied to kicktd's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
ATV's are very buggy and they tand to hop away from the location where you parked them. -
My Thoughts On Ragers, Gaming, and DayZ
Atanar replied to Nashy08's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I think that matches better. The so called "care bears" only ask for not being shot at. I've never witnessed anyone begging for gear. -
Dat feel bro.... dat feel, i got the down on mah luck blues...
Atanar replied to DahBunny's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I call that a bad excuse for a bad writing style. -
I must say, it's a very good interview. Rocket get's intervied by retards who ask question that have been answered all the time, you are the exeption.

Vehicles are even better places to put stuff than tents.

What does everyone do in DayZ's "end game"?
Atanar replied to DayZPvP.com's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I stash all my gear in my tent and head out to elektro to help noobs and clean the sniping spots overlooking the city. -
No Respawn button now? /sigh
Atanar replied to A Bush killed me's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I am glad about this change because respawn is dangerouly close to options and has no follow-up-question if I am really sure. -
Playing at night - Concerning Zombies and what-not.
Atanar replied to Tenderness's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
No, you don't make less sound. But you are basically invisible to zombies (and fresh meat for bandits with NVG). You also get cold during the night, and you get rapidly cold if it rains on top of that. -
Why you should NEVER trust anyone in DayZ
Atanar replied to Jack Pilot's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
And you really wonder if someone is greedy enough to shoot you for that? If I act friendly my good guns are in my backpack (not the coyote one ofc ;) ). -
I thought that big rock would make a good vantage point...

[video(s)] what do YOU want to see ?
Atanar replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
I want to see the bugs bunny "pssst...we are hunting wabbits" reenacted. Because the rabbits in dayz are real trolls, just like bugs. -
No ability to kill people on the forum and take their beans?
Atanar replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This game is a simulator. Go somewhere elso to play stupid browser games. -
You guys do know that morphine spawns in military as well?

Loot map.... Do you think its more fun with or without it?
Atanar replied to -MadTommy's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It is more fun using the loot map. I tryed without at the beginning, and that's just frustrating to realise that 90% of all buildings are closed and without anything. -
In response to the soon-to-be non existant respawn button...
Atanar replied to Inception.'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Are you insane? That would make it very likely to kill oneself when trying to acess a tent, climbing a ladder, using a vehicle or something simular. -
Stay, hidden, make sure he hasn't seen you. If he saw me before I could interact: Run like hell. If he didn't see me, try to contact or leave alone, depending on what he looks like (a guy with a sniper rifle is probably NOT friendly). Also Avoid contact when you got good gear yourself. And if it's a guy sniping at coast, I definitly kill him.

The problem with "it's in alpha" is that it's thrown at things which are reasonably discussed statements about what should be changed. As if any criticism would be completly irrelevant because "the game is going to change anyway", which is a stupid thing to say. I've witnessed it with minecraft myself, and it either didn't change at all or was changed because of the community. Rocket himself said that he does not need fanboys only.

So I went to Elektro, with my self-set mission to help noobs (cause with endgame guns stached in my tent, what else should I do?), equipped with a Winchester and a 1911 (I would not dare to enter a city with a good gun, people would probably kill me for that). Sneaked around a bit ( I was really sneaky, never made a loud noise or fired a gun), removed a few wirefences and a entrance-blocking sandbag barrier in the firestation. I saw a few dead zombies and a few dead people with them, so I knew there were a few people having problem with PvE. When I just got around the hospital, I hear the moaning of a nearly dead player. So I asked in direct chat "Hey. I am friendly. You sound like you could use some help. Just blood or a broken leg, too?" I got the response: "Just blood". So I went into the hospital, grabbed a bloodback and gave the guy that just came down the ladder a transfusion. Seeing that he was just equipped with a crowbar, I even showed him another 1911 I saw a few seconds earlier nearby in the red brick building. I said goodby and headed out to try to find a tent or a good weapon to reward myself with. I scouted the area carefully with my binoculars and headed to the firestation near the centre (already hearing shots from the 1911 the guy used agains Zeds way behind me). So I got into the station and found a GPS. Decent loot. When I just headed out of the building to get towards the forest, I heard a voicechat: "Hey, are you friendly? Do you hear me?". I was totally shocked that someone saw me, cause I moved very carefully and hid behind walls, and it was really dark night, so it must have been someone with NVG, so the only response I was capable of was "Do you need any help?" The guy answered "No, thanks, I'm fine". So I got away safely. I guess that's karma like in "My name is Earl". The other day someone was roaming Nizhnoye, heading towards the inland part of Berezino. I heard him fireing his double-barreled shotgun from quite a distance away. So I followed him, seeing that he was pulling every zombie near him. Suddenly he stopped shooting, I guess he was out of ammo. So I approached him, shot the 4 Zeds that were around him with ease. He just walked another 50m till he realised that the sound he heard was not directed at him and he had no more zombies around him. He turned around when I asked "Hey, everything cool?". He just looked at me and disconnected. What a jerk.

Agility? Do you know how much shugar there is in Mountain dew? More a permanent fat ass I'd say.

Anyone else feel that .50 cals....
Atanar replied to infinitegrim's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Despite all the game balance arguments, I think such sniper rifles should not be in the game cause they do not fit the environment. Not even a bit. What's the setting? A very rural environment, the biggest settlement is a very small town, and most other stuff is villages. Would it make sense to send elite snipers there in case of a crysis? Obviously no. And the military presence we got there? A few tents and a small military airbase. I find have no idea how a .50cal should have gotten there.
