I'd like to see a safety on my weapon first. Accidental discharges are not nice and often result in messy situations. ;) Be more careful when you click after pressing escape. Most folk only do this once - me included and I am awesome.

This has already been suggested multiple times and much more articulately. Try the search function next time.

TS:DR (too stupid didnt read)

This guy is a victim too http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/34457-has-anyone-seen-this-man/

Im guessing you must be a lawyer. Only that kinda guy could say that was all plausible. Sounded like more than 4 satchels were used. I have never seen one in game after 100's of mispent hours.

Please elaborate on how the original poster's observations could be deemed as legitimate then?

See this excellent page. http://www.kellys-heroes.eu/files/tutorials/dedicated/ its long but has the info you need. I think you need to set map = 0 somewhere

Oh feck off and die. Fecking pirates. Where do you think you can get off and not pay for a game when everyone else has? No it will not work you will get banned. Very soon hopefully.

No not if you are a client. And yes, use google for client and server config guides. Just google arma II config guide.

Please post your ARMA OA player ID here and we will find out for you mate! ;)

Sounds like the story of a loot camper

LOL. Game has had this feature for at least 5-7 years. They aint gonna fix it for you me or anyone else and no you wont get a reset. Dont click where you dont know what your clicking. Kill the game if screen has gone perma black. Then log back in. Keep Calm and Eat Beans.

None

I think he meant 'safe' rather than 'save' as in you can park up a chopper close to these points and maybe not get sniped or ambushed. Although I see a lot more places like the barn near Lapatino that i found convenient enough and safe with a chopper. maybe his safe points have more long range concealment.

Try and locate a 2 exit building. Lead them in - sneak out the other door and break line of sight. Xmas trees work well also for breaking LoS. Avoid zed more - crawl or crouch walk. Dont run across roads.

Use a tent instead. Safer and a lure for victims at the same time.

watch some better videos!

I have this too. I just click through and it installs. My software is all legit so i assume lots of others using legit copies get this error?

Read the FAQ's on these forums. There is also a great website called YouTube that might help you too. You just search for stuff you wanna know about good grief.

Try joining some steam groups like the excellent Dayz Survivors

In the Arma world it is very easy for the devs to add little new things here and there and nuance what is already there. They can do it without too much testing - like for example moving some of the vehicles spawns to new locations. The could lower the spawn rates on the crashed helis and barracks say and introduce a 6 man AI spec op team that arrives by patrol boat once every 2 hours or so and makes its way to a military location across the land (random destination each time). This would be a danger to survivors if the AI were set to shoot anything. They might succumb to zed themselves. It would provide some more lootable weaponry. It would give the endgamers something new to do. This is a lame example above but I reckon the devs are well aware that in one of the next updates they should add a new dynamic to give old timers something new to do (worry about) ;) This idea doesnt even include new content like mini missions or quests. That would be fun. As long as nothing is forced on you i say its all good.

Maybe you attracted a sniper with your frequent and loud fully automatic gun fire? I must say I have never seen a crashed heli on fire like that. How long till they go out?

Thats the most awful music i have ever heard

No. RTFM. There is an FAQ page on the forums. Read that. If you cannot read - go back to your console and improve your mario kart laptimes.

Most likely a pine tree killed you. Do not prone next to the xmas pine tree thingys! They will kill you. You probably heard a crunching noise as you died. If you were smart you would have run back to your body to retrieve your stuff.
