    How do I get a nvg

    Saw that he was a server hopper then gave 0 fucks.

    Day Z etiquette

    There is like 5% "etiquette" in this game. The rest is just a bunch of run and gun kids that kill people for no reason. I cant wait(and by that i mean i HOPE) he adds some objectives to this mission that require teamwork. Fix the powerplant, start a "store", something, ANYTHING.
  3. So you are saying you server hop? Also if it wasn't a Global Ban, and you obviously have a "safe zone" in another server, why do you care?

    2 legit steam copies. 1 won't work

    ...seems rather redundant no? have you verified you game cache in steam? have you run the beta launcher and the dayz updater while on this accout(regardless if you ran it on the other account on the same computer)?

    Carry the wounded

    I love to hogtie people in Red Dead Redemption and put them on the train tracks. How awesome would it be to carry someone wounded and then throw them to the infected or something LOL. But also, this would add some immersion to the MOD and is also already in ArmA(might be another MOD). I cant wait for radios and "Battlefield Clearnece"(which is what its called i believe) are implemented. Obvi his own work but wouldnt be bad to subcontract for the time being.

  9. I'm gonna go right ahead and call you stupid. If I am attached to my family, I don't deserve one? Is it the same IRL? I am very attached to my gear, how the fuc* do I deserve to lose it then? Maybe I've walked through hell and back for that gear. Know what? You're not even worth my time. It's a mod, and it's in alpha. Take a deep breath my friend - probably other things in your life that you may want to reserve this level of "give a crap" for. Hope you have a better day! You can't care for more than one thing? Everyone are attached to their gear. At least to some degree. Actually 3 days ago i pitched a tent and didnt like exactly where it was so i re-pitched it. I had saved it the first time and the second. I put my backpack in there with 16 items in it in hopes i would just find a new one during my town raid. I came back the following day to find 2 tents stuck in each other, effectively swallowing up my stuff(i never did find another backpack neither) so here i sit effectively itemless.... And I dont really care, because its al in the town im near anyway. You dont get special items in this game and the ones you do get make you that much more of a target. And a Makarov or crossbow can still beat your sniper rifle or 1337 weapon if they get the drop on you or worse...exploit and server hop etc to get you. Stop being so up in arms over something so petty. If you get this mad NOW in Alpha stage, rather than taking a break, you will never appreciate this at its final release cus you will just be mad. I did it with BF3.

    Helicopter crash sites

    I respectfully disagree' date=' and argue that for the purposes of video games, PRNGs are so seemingly random nobody would notice. And no, I am not saying the helicopter sites are random - I highly doubt it. Just saying, from a programmer's point of view, there is a such thing as random (even without HRNGs or PRNGs) And i respectfully disagree with you as well. pseu·do   [soo-doh] Show IPA adjective 1. not actually but having the appearance of; pretended; false or spurious; sham. 2. almost, approaching, or trying to be. So they arent TRULY random. As there really is no ACTUAL random. Appearing to be and actually BEING we can all agree is a different thing. I do agree that for videogames as you stated they do suffice...but still. Tomato/Tomato

    Pending Update: Build 1.7.2

    I think honestly the strat for total domination in this game is get NVGs...Go to a night server, and rob people blind. Or to lock or restart your server when you or your clan gets raped by nubs...

    Pending Update: Build 1.7.2

    You "example" is fucking retarded. There's people who get cancer in their infancy. There's triathlon athletes that drop dead of heart attacks. I just wanted to point out that your closing argument is idiotic at best' date=' and from that i will forever take nothing you say seriously. You're the type that condemns Marijuana because the lame stream media said so..../rant OT...cant wait for the update, and when there's increasingly sexy outfits in the game like Rocket had on. What a slut to entice us with such lovelies. [/quote'] derp thats not even his signature, it's part of his post herp derp In fairness...i will point out that i thought it was his "signature" that i put but was able to ninja edit the post.... I only admit this because you arent the retard who posted nonsense. However cross me again and i will eat your beans...and pasta.

What a slut to entice us with such lovelies. I will say this though..."Surviving" is completely useless in this game. There needs to be more incentive to assist your fellow man, and to stay alive. Without that tis is just PvP with zombies and idiots who will ruin this mod and the game completely.

    How I've died to sloppy programming

    Its not programming, its scripting. Rocket didnt develop ArmA, hes manipulating it with scripts. Also, bandages do not take the same space as morphine, so i feel like thats an outright lie. You just mad. Listen its amod. Everything yo u get this life is replaceable. I've died crawling next to trucks, fences, in and out of house, cus of snipers, cus of glitchers, cus of zombies, cus of blood loss(I actually ran from Cherno to Baltoa(?) airfield where a buddy was after stumbling across a box of medi supplies. I had 200 health and passed out at least 15 times). Man up and just play better, or if you are frustrated go play something else. No sense in getting worked up and burnt out on a Alpha stage MOD. If you get so pissed off when the MOD is Beta or Final release..you wont be able to enjoy it.

    Way points ?

    I believe i read somewhere placing them down while in "Direct Communication" makes them invisible to everyone but you. I remember when Sidechat was enabled i put one down and everyone could see it.
  16. Unless u have a backpack full of ammo i doubt this is even possible. However i do believe zombies constantly spawn if someone is nearby. Obviously DayZ has many scripts running it but at its very basic for i assume that all towns and loot areas have triggers that detect if a player is nearby. If they are i assume a script allows zombies to spawn at a certain rate. I assume there may be a cap like x playes = y zeds but not greater than MAXzeds. This is of course pretty much speculation on my part but i dont think its possible, nor smart, to try to clear a town of zombies.
  17. 1) Add nonsteam game. 2)Select the beta patch here : C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead "Launch Arma2 OA Beta Patch" 3)Go to that same location and right-click the file "Launch Arma2 OA Beta Patch" and go to properties. 4)You will see 2 fields. TARGET: and START IN: 5) Right click the shortcut u made in your Steam Library(i believe its called armaao, then click properties. 6)Copy TARGET and START IN from the actual file and put them in the corresponding fields in your STEAM LIBRARY shortcut.. 7)Launch and enjoy. You will need to repeat this process every time you get a new Beta update.

    Did I have a heart attack?

    its happened to me 2 times. Both times i was standing still so i assume there was a sniper just waiting. Once was in a field in the north, and once was in Cherno. Never heard the shot, but I assume it was a sniper.

    saving loot

    Tents are only persistent on the server you set them up on. If you set up a tent on US1 and then go to US 27 your tent wont be there. But if you go back to US1 it will be. Also when switching to a different server there will be different loot where you are(if there is any yet)

    Hotfix Build 1.7.1.5 Rolling Update

    After playing for four hours i have come to the comclusion this update/hotfix hit the mark and raised the bar. Hatchet is fun, loot is good, behavior is spot on(aside from a few snafus). Good stuff.

    Hotfix Build 1.7.1.5 Rolling Update

    1) Install the beta files into your Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\@Dayz\addons folder (create if you haven't already) 2) In your arma2 operation arrowhead folder (as above) right click on the Launch Arma2 OA Beta Patch shortcut. Leave that up and ready' date=' you will need it in next steps 3) In steam, bottom left button: + Add a game (non steam app) 4) Copy the text from the beta patch shortcut's target and start in fields (both fields copied over accordingly) 5) Restart Steam 6) Run the new app 7) Go into Expansions, make sure you've enabled them, most importantly @Dayz 8) Restart the new app, you're ready to play, wth steam overlay [/quote'] Thank you. This worked.

    Hordes of zombies aggro-ing out of nowhere?

    With all the hotfixes coming out at a high rate of speed you may want to start including Beta build and DayZ version. i.e "Blah blah zombies" beta xxxxx and dayz v.1.7.1 Note that as i post this DayZ v1.7.1.5 is out also Arma Beta build 93965
