Does humanity reset when you die, or will your hero/bandi status Carry over?
xfortune replied to GBTP's topic in New Player Discussion
It doesn't reset. You have a relog for your humanity to show up after respawning, but it's still there. I'm pretty sure humanity is profile-based though, so making a new profile should let you restart at 0. -
I hope you can see the difference between shooting at someone in a video game and shooting someone in real life...

Can't play like a hero and expect to live in DayZ. I'd have done the same.

Poll- Very slowly regenerating blood?
xfortune replied to colekern's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Health regen wouldn't be for no reason if it's implemented as the OP described it. Your body replaces lost blood, you know (to an extent, obviously if you lose several pints you're probably going to die). -
I kill for fun. Killing zombies gives zero rush whatsoever, I live for PvP in any game I play, including this one.

Camps of a duping clan - US 257 Seattle
xfortune replied to xfortune's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Trust me, as of today, it doesn't always work. My tent I placed 2 hours ago and saved was empty upon server restart. -

Not always, I put tons of shit in a tent I placed and saved it, didn't work. -

Tapolka is really easy to find, just go to the left of the wooden pier and lay down in the water, and do the same on the right side (but go about 15 feet to the right, they're farther away on that side). The one at Cap Golova is a bit hard to find if you don't know where it is (took me like 10 minutes to find it after seeing someone go in there and exit with gear). Cap Golova is at 082/129 and 083/129, Tapolka Dam is at 102/116. -
Theory on a way to detect bypass users! Please comment.
xfortune replied to (OCN)Vortech's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Nah, my friend is Austrialian and she logs onto US servers where the ping limit is 125, she has 200-250 and often doesn't get kicked. It's just buggy/inconsistent about kicks. -
Close range aiming is screwed up.
xfortune replied to Securion's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, DayZ has some weird mouse controls. If I move my mouse slow, I turn quickly, if I move it fast, I turn slowly. This varies depending on if you're crouched or laying down or whatever. There's something else there I can't quite put my finger on, but the aiming is definitely off compared to most FPS and I haven't been able to fix it. -
[Video] Kamenka Loot Route Tutorial - Before you jump off that lighthouse, consider watching my route from Kamenka to Zelenogorsk.
xfortune replied to livbythegun's topic in New Player Discussion
I love spawning near Kamenka on private hives, but on the main hive, I just wanna go to Cherno/Elektro, pick up an Enfield or something and go deathmatch. -
The old snipers are to powerful thread. (with a solution)
xfortune replied to mtls44555's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
False, the Coriolis effect does come into play over those distances, and fairly significantly so. At 1,000 yards, the CE can throw off a bullet by more than 3 inches. -

gtx 570, but only 15-20 fps. What to do?
xfortune replied to deathstrike616's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
2500k and 6850 here, rarely drop below 60FPS @ 1080p unless there's like 50 zombies tethered to my CPU. -
If I'm moving from the area immediately, I leave the body. If I'm sticking around, I hide every body and despawn every weapon I come across. Or leave them out in the open as bait, depending on the circumstance.

Last time (every time) I tried to be friendly with people they either got me killed or killed me themselves. I KOS now, the only friends I need are the ones in Skype with me.

Not bad if done right and you have cover, way too easy to sneak up behind you if you don't have someone watching your back though. Better but still not that good. You can be seen from the main sniper hill, snuck up behind, etc. Not bad if you have cover or move after firing. Absolutely TERRIBLE place to be. You can be shot SO easily from anywhere outside or around Cherno. I love when people go up there, it's a free kill. Easy to be seen, easy to sneak up behind people. Only good if you have someone watching you. There are several spots around Cherno in every direction that give sight over key areas, and few people expect to be hit from there. Not going to list them for obvious reasons. There are spots like this in the NWAF, around Stary, Zelenogorsk, and a couple of other towns I frequent as well. I avoid Elektro because there aren't any spots to snipe from where I feel comfortable, although when I'm in the area I stick around for a few minutes to check for snipers on Dobryy before moving on. Sniper rifles are fair. Where did he say he kills unarmed players?

If 1.7.3 actually fixes tents, wipe it. Otherwise, leave it. It'll just hurt the legit players and the dupers will be back to normal in a week or less.

The old snipers are to powerful thread. (with a solution)
xfortune replied to mtls44555's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Not all inexperienced snipers can do that. Even if you put in wind and shit, Arma veterans are gonna come in and rape anyways, except now it's gonna be harder to counter snipe them. There isn't really an issue here, other than bad players sitting out in the open. Instead of bitching about what's killing them, they should learn from it and play better. I rarely die to snipers now, and when I do it's because I fucked up, not because sniper rifles are OP. Single player ARMA has this, I don't think multiplayer does (too much stress on the servers I'm guessing, as well as issues with lag and stuff). -
Not hard to hold down any city until you go against someone who knows what they're doing. I've taken out several 3+ man squads solo, even when they've got AS50 TWS and shit. Just knowing the area well (where you can be seen, where the vantage points over each main building are, etc.) and an M24 is enough to put an end to most peoples' fun.

Nah, they're fine. If you're tired of being hit, stop being out in the open. -
Camp Coords - US 1620 -=[AMAZING LOOT]=-
xfortune replied to UnnOunN's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Server just restarted (pretty sure it was a hard reset too, the area around the tents was on fire, guess one of the TCS guys saw it and got mad). Everything is there except for the stuff I just took. -
Good thing DayZ is free. :)

M107/AS50 and Skill; do they go with one another?
xfortune replied to Obsolescence's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The PSO scope kind of sucks past 500-600m though. No, that's not how it works. A supersonic round is "just" going to punch through your foot. It isn't traveling slow enough (nor have enough weight) to snag on your foot and tear your leg off, or however you think that happens. Sorry to break it to you, but Rambo isn't an accurate depiction of what a .50 cal round does.
