Hahaha, This made me laugh a lot more than it probably should have. Came from the Bear Grylls memes. The community did not disappoint. *EDIT* also you have my approval. Although I doubt this will make it in.

Never had this problem with stairs. Ladders is a different story. Anyone tried getting on the roof of (I think it was) one of the skyscrapers or hospitals in that new city they built near cherno? Death Ladders. It's all like "oh cool, wonder what the views like from up here." *climb climb climb* *reach the top* *fall and severely damage yourself* Never died though. In fact shortly after i got enough food, vitamins, cleans and bandaged a wound and I was awarded with a "Healthy" status and most importantly; could see again.

I don't like what current state of player interaction has turned into
reddeer01 replied to DannyFilming's topic in General Discussion
Probably just scared. Or didn't talk English. I mean. I was bricking it on my first encounter with another player after a few times of dying from sniper fire. -
I have to admit. I didn't realise how much I used Binoculars until they were gone. Hope you can hang them around your neck (to save slots) and map it to the B Key again.

I like the look of hunter. But I aim for practicality. The extra 5 slots on the Mountain backpack meant the world for me and my fireaxe after i found that M4A1.

To The Squad Of 4 In Pavlovo At 17:10 GMT
reddeer01 replied to fortran's topic in General Discussion
We tended to leave one person on watch outside of the city at a vantage point at times like this. Then switch out. That was until we got vehicles. And we got used to all types of geared people covering in fear or taking potshots at us as we stroll into the cherno apartments. Good Times. -
Should it be easier to keep fed/hydrated?
reddeer01 replied to Clumzy (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I just hate how tough it is on a fresh spawn. Takes a while to find stuff from my experiences.Then by then any liquid is like todays equivalent diamonds and gold but it's still never enough to quench your thirst. However If you've even been lucky enough (like i have) to recover from really low blood and sickness. For your character to have high energy and the "healthy" status on the gear screen. It's a very satisfactory feeling. Incredibly so after being blurry and having those annoying status's for so long. So in that aspect. I quite like it. Feels quite realistic the balance of drinking and eating necessary If you're st the end-game alpha stage like I am. -
Yeah needs to be done. Ever tried to guide someone with low blood?? You're all like "yeah see the green bungalow over there!? yeah it has beans in it; you can eat go get em" The they're like "Wait what!? What green house?" And you're like "The one right there... Like.. East-ish" and there like ".Umm.... I can barely even see you dude" So you end up taking the lengthy trip with them holding there hand like a baby. When really you should be taking point or looking for more food for them. Being able to point and have them follow where you're pointing would be damn helpful. At least back in the Mod i could throw flares in the direction I was talking about. Side note; Are flares even in yet?

I agree. Needs a Timer and for the character to have picked up a loot item though. Just to stop the spawn rouletting. Although with the current loot system. Spawn Rouletting in it's traditional quite benificial state is already lessened from the cost side loot I've encountered (personally).
-
Should've just seen the blood and started running. Even though I didn't see them die. DayZ is literally one of the only games where I'm comfortable knowing I don't have to see them die after I hit them with a bullet or two.

Needing a can opener to open a can is pathetic
reddeer01 replied to dayzhopeful's topic in General Discussion
Found one can opener so far. Does need to be an abundance of them though... Keep finding pens and motorcycle helmets (although motorcycle helmets is now fixed). Canteens, Canned food, Pens, Paper and other household items need a great number of increase (dunno if there's a server-side limit although I imagine there is). I mean... How can i go through a number of houses in Cherno to find 1 pen, 1 rotten banana, 1 rotten orange and a pair of pliers... In the largest city in the game. Praying it was to do with these authentication errors atm or servers updating. Either way. I'm quite missing the Mods drop system as of now. -
A simple and effective fix for night time gamma "cheating"
reddeer01 replied to alleycat's topic in General Discussion
This wouldn't be an issue if the damn streetlights and flashlights we're even half as realistic as the damn star constellations and moon we trust in guiding us through that pitch black darkness. Even if the flashlight gave of like 20% ambient light to the surrounding area it would be an improvement. We don't need light to reflect off of surfaces etc like in other engines. Just basic fixes which mean we can see more than 25% of our screen as we shamble hopelessly around the 4th floor of that high rise only to realise we haven't actually moved for the past 10 seconds because we've been walking into a fallen bookcase I didn't see due to it being 2 inches out of the beam of my flashlight when I glanced earlier... In case it isn't obvious. I quite hate how playing at night seems to add more of a nuisance clause to the game instead of adding atmosphere, scariness or making general decisions harder and instead gives players the excuse to perform a "necessary evil" that this threat is trying to fix. -
Where are Jerry Cans when you need 'em?!
reddeer01 replied to M8EO's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
TELL ME ABOUT IT! When i found my beautiful VS3 (now stolen :'( ) i drove it from cherno around all the way up to above berezino looking for a damn jerrycan. Just a singular one; theres plently of petrol station on the road i could stop at and just re-fill (Btw wtf can't we just USE a petrol pump?). Could i find one? Fuck could I. Had to wait till i got my mate on (i found a quadbike shortly before stashing the truck) so we could go around in search for one. -
Usually always hide bandit bodies. This is often because i get to them first after death trying to take out more than one person. Occasionally i'll hide random dead people (say if i'm on a loot route and theirs one of those freakishly weird standing up dead people) just so it stops creeping me out.

You should've set up a challenge. An infiltration-esqe mission if you will. Should a player reach the hotel and light a road flare they win the right to a reward of your choice. Catch is you/your team are not allowed within 100-150 meters of the hotel itself. I'm thinking about organising something of the same sort or a Hunger Games type thing. Either way if you do this record it. It'd be interesting to see whether people start effectively using smoke grenades etc or just make mad dashes and attempt to light the flare.
