Smells like moldy gym socks in here. Did the guys in the shiny building get a box of proxies for Christmas? I've noticed some trendy cats and they've hit all the obvious talking point and key phrases. SEO all up in this bitch. /supersecretolanguage

Here's the point. You're seriously overreacting to a simple two weeks worth of silence. You also overreacted to a signature that's been around for quite a while and to my knowledge no one has bothered to complain about, even the biggest rocket stalkers. Honestly, why do you think development isn't continuing? Because people went home for the holidays? /facepalm Anyway, I'm not going to let this turn into a flame war. I understand genuine excitement for a game's release but this isn't my first time to this particular rodeo so I can handle situations like this tiny drop in the bucket-of-time called a couple weeks. Besides, I have uber helicopters to no scope from or to crash into the ground south of the NE airfield.

I can now see why rocket needs a breather and why this thread seems like a broken record. Are you guys going to continually repeat your demands for information for the next 10 or so pages? If so, I'll just stop checking this thread until the inevitable spam of 'new dayz info' threads start slamming the general discussion section, reddit, twitter, facebook, and every gaming site on the web.

You probably earned the bandit skin on a server with lazy admins. btw, the rage, so sweet

That would probably only make things worse, imo.

I think I missed the joke boat earlier but what the hell.. Get crowbar, press F.

Buy Arma2, the standalone, and Arma3. The mod will live on and I doubt it'll ever really die until we can play community maps and use other custom content in the standalone. There are also a few mods of DayZ at the moment that could be pretty epic if they're given enough time to mature. Arma3 looks awesome.

The rain ruined the fireworks down here. What good is it to live in BFE if you can't get drunk and fire off explosives?

Happy new year folks.

How about markers or chalk for simple typed out text (in freehand looking font) or hobo code? It would be more subtle than a clan logo on a building and could be much more useful. hobo code http://en.wikipedia.....28sign.29_code http://i.imgur.com/wobMm.jpg

Why not both?

Bean counters make terrible games. We've seen an example of the extreme cash grab philosophy of game development recently and the product delivered was awful and the customer service was inexcusable. Building a solid product and choosing not to shake down your customers for every penny are two very solid business practices, even if they're uncommon in today's world.

Sounds like a plan but I think they're going to be expecting us for some reason. :)

I was a tad toasty last night and I think I just ran in large circles for a couple hours. Wasn't as epic as the other night. :D I'm still up for a raid on our cousins across the pond so keep an eye out.

Yes, I mean nO! OP, I have a much better rig than that I'm willing to trade you straight up. Just PM me your details and I'll call FexEx for rates.

My computer is sad so I hide in the woods and record rabbits at 10 fps. You'll be alright if you found every vehicle and zombie on the map and blew them all up in the center of Cherno.

Double barrel shotty shot ftw.

I always use flares when raiding a town at night but I'm careful not to light only the area I'm in. If you need additional light for some reason, use red chemlights as they wont stand out as much as blue and green against the red light of the flares. I find using flares more fun and a player with a flashlight is a lot easier to pinpoint than a guy running around in a large and well lit area. Other than that, good tips for people.

I propose a ninja release. I also want my stats scratched into the stock of my rifle.

I nearly shart myself when I realized I was lying prone within looting distance of that sniper and I'm still chuckling over the four point blank enny shots I needed to drop him. I guess the inner noob took over. :) Good times fellas. Had a blast.

How does avoiding pvp hurt you? It's not always possible but it's not like we have to deathmatch in Elektro to have fun in DayZ. And a lot of players do not shoot on sight. It's only the squiddies that do that and they're pretty easy to avoid.

I see you have strong feelings about it. As do I, and I assure you third person makes it harder. Everything you just used to try back up your opinion of how third person makes the game dumber [read: easier] for you to get a kill makes the game harder for you to survive. Two players that know how to use third person will have a hard time killing each other unless one is stupid or one outsmarts the other. You've also oversimplified everything but I'm not going to beat you up over it. I do find it interesting that you think you know exactly when it's safe to move from cover immediately after mentioning all players ability to look over walls or see around corners without exposing themselves. Changing the core view people associate with DayZ would be a huge mistake.

I don't think slapping together a bit of news in five minutes would be the smart thing to do. If there's any room for misinterpretation in the post the trolls, puppets, and gaming sites will use it to their advantage. They have to be careful about what they say and how they say it. It's sad but I think the time when a dev could just hop on the forums, say something about the game, and then answer a handful of questions is over.

Soo, someone snooping in the private hive database? Lame.
