A sandstorm in Russia? What are you smoking and can I have some? Edit: NL, I see... I know what you're smoking. Can I have some?

This might blow your minds guys. Make sure you're firmly in a seated position before reading on... How about helping bambis instead of killing them? That's what I've been up to lately. Just been lurking in the big cities, helping bambis survive a little longer and putting the a-hole wannabe bandits in their place. It's actually quite rewarding and has lead to some great experiences, keeping the game fresh.

The UI is being completely reworked for the standalone. Humanity and blood might be displayed somewhere else. You can check your zombie kills by pressing 'i'.
-
Eurgh, bambi killers are scum... I've dedicated my last few play sessions to eradicating them and helping the new guys, lol. Sula's advice is good, try to memorise the big cities and which buildings you're having success looting and before long you'll have your own little route planned where you can get in, grab some gear and get out ASAP. I always aim to have a map, compass, knife, hatchet, matches, a better backpack and primary and secondary weapons before I leave. Achievable most of the time but you can't win 'em all! Good luck!

Havent played in months- WTF is with the servers?
Mos1ey replied to Deathscythe's topic in New Player Discussion
The standalone will feature a complete UI overhaul mate, I'm sure you'll be able to play without problems... It is kind of funny as I think red/green is the most common form of colour blindness. A colour blind UI option wouldnt go a miss. Can you not just flick the debug menu on for a sec to check your blood level though? That's what I do anyway. The food/drink icons flash for 10 minutes before they start draining your blood so I can't see them being a problem. :S -
My favourite gun is the hatchet. No, probably the AKM and I'm not 100% why. AKs are just sexy... I usually pack a scoped rifle or, failing that, an Enfield in my backpack too. But that's just out of necessity in case I come under fire at range.

Not sure if trolling or retarded. Rocket's busy working on the standalone, and rightly so. If I'm gonna pay for it then I want it to be good. Apparently your entitled arse is too short-sighted to see past the mod... And a lot of people haven't actually left DayZ, we're hiding from hackers in private hives, making he numbers on the main hive statistics drop. -
The obvious answer here is to make scripting in items a legitimate part of the game.
-
Pretty sure they're just adding general disease and illness, not the zombie infection... Lol.
-
The only part I didn't like was the part about poo and disease which, ironically, is the part that's been confirmed for the game... We definitely need the 'booby-trap zombie', a staple classic in anything zombie related. I think as well as this we just need more end game content. Currently, in the eyes of those who lack the ability to think outside of what the game shoves directly in your face, the only thing to do once you're geared is repair vehicles and murder people.
-
Awesome! It had gotten to the point where I was playing private hives with <10 players cause it was the only way I could play for 10 minutes without being teleported in to the sky, lol. I've moved up to private hives with about 25 players in the last week or so and haven't seen any hackers yet. I guess I'll give high pop a try again. ;D
-
Fair play. Used to play acad before it went public, just play pub every once in a while now since the whole Roccat thing... CBA. xD
-
Temperature already affects you. o.o Cinematic kills - no. There's a good chance you'll see some of the others later in the standalone.
-
Do you ever play pubs? I might have seen you around. xD
-
It's going on your tombstone, bro. 'Apache25 - Wall climbing machetes'
-
Can you hear that? It's the sound of no one caring...
-
TBH, they are pretty good for a five year old game...
-
Ah, I knew the entrenching tool was a foldable shovel but I didn't realise it would be suitable for digging man-sized holes. Fair enough then, if the e-tool was required to bury bodies then that would be perfect.
-
I just had a thought... Burying the body stops the sound of the flies, whereas dragging a body to a hidden place would not. I think a shovel as a moderately rare item (maybe the same as matches?), required to bury bodies should be implemented if this made it in to the game.
-
Unlucky mate, but we've all been killed by hackers more than once... I'd recommend private hive servers (preferably password or whitelist protected ones) until the standalone game comes out, I'm able to play populated servers again and I haven't seen a hacker for weeks. :)
-
I would consider no. 6 to be exploiting as I think radio's currently have to be scripted in and even if you hadn't scripted in the item yourself you would be using scripted items to gain an advantage over other players. The rest IMO are fine and I use half of them myself.
-
As nice an idea as it is in theory I think the game would actually be better of without the persistant world. Things like ghosting and server hopping are impossible to combat without hurting players that have to change servers or reconnect for legitimate reasons. Sometimes I connect to a server and I have 10 FPS when I'd normally have 50-70. If I had to either play there or wait for an hour before I could play somewhere else I'd be pissed off.
-
Either get the latest beta patch from DayZ Commander or you might need to update your actual ArmA II: OA files, not sure which...
-
It means you won DayZ. Congrats!

Shiting in the woods, pissing and diarrhoea.
Mos1ey replied to thomas28's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Have to agree with you mate. I'm a big fan of Rocket's and love what he's done with DayZ so far. The shit thing is just unnecessary though...
