Was just there, no buildings enterable and only found a barbed wire kit in the tower. Too high risk to benefit ratio, also seems like z's see you from farther away. Thank god for the pine tree trick!!

Why does the nose of the helicopter in DayZ want to level with the horizon?
islandjack1 replied to decoman's topic in New Player Discussion
Maybe one day, I'll actually see a helicopter..... -
I want to live long enough in my various lives to see all the cool places on the map that I see in You Tube videos. Also, to live as long as possible with no murders. Been going 8 days so far without one.

Lets contact Dexter the spatter expert and make sure the high velocity, exhalation, and arterial spurting aren't the same as the medium and low velocity stuff.

Sounds like walking dead fun!!

Welcome to a Fresh server US 905
islandjack1 replied to Krosof (DayZ)'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Is your server set at recruit, regular, veteran, or expert level? -
I had two hackers occur before I knew what they were. One killed me and the other gave me great gear to practice with. Either way, I died and started over. I play low pop servers for the last 3 weeks and haven't had any problems. The hacked gear gave me experience in the complex tasks and I am greatfull. Remember, in this game, it doesn't matter what equipment you have, it can all go in a flash by stumbling on a noob with a makarov who gets a half second jump on you.

Would be nice to have character data like that you could toggle on and off. Would live to see how many hours play time and rounds of ammo fired.
-
I would like better aiming on the crossbow [optics], but keep other attributes the same. Would use it more. Also, can you put in in your pack as a primary weapon and keep a handgun as secondary? Never had a chance to find out. Good combo between silent and noisy zed killing.

Yesterday it took 7 body shots to kill one z with 1911. Is there a lack of consistency on damage?
-
Someone get rid of the Obama pic before I get sick. If he finds out about this game, there will be a tax to play it.

[Stop with the slurs already. -Max] in a bush.
islandjack1 replied to DazTroyer's topic in New Player Discussion
I was on a server that advertised "no PVP:will be kicked" , but still was shot 3 times from behind some bushes by another player. Think it was US 1557 but not sure. Just a game, nothing to get crazy about, you really can't win, just fun trying out different ideas. -
Rocket, please put a single player mode [ala Kronzky] in the upcoming standalone game. I would like the chance of practicing complex skills (ie: cooking meat, using map and GPS, assembling vehicles, etc..) without other players killing me for a bandage and a flashlight the first instant they see me. My money is in the bank waiting for the standalone. G. Quagmire, US 1557

Thanks, couldn't find it with the search box.

Debug monitor will be gone in 1.7.3 !
islandjack1 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Lets remove the monitor and have a key to bring it up. That way you can check it sporadically, just like the in game map. -
Does any one use direct chat, or even look at it???!!!!!!
islandjack1 replied to oli83's topic in New Player Discussion
I use the mic on direct commo all the time. Noone responds and I'm not sure if it even works. I'm not very computer literate, so I don't know anything about external chat devices. Let me know if you here "Giggity" in the distance, if u do you are among friends and I'll team up with you for awhile. 3 weeks on the game and not a single murder yet. -
Most EPIC scenario: with questionable outcome
islandjack1 replied to KillCam96's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I also recieved the same gift from the hacker gods. I player for several days with it on various servers, and then another hacker geared me up again and teleported 20 other players on top of me in a fire fight in which I promptly died, I think my Karma was neutralized, as yours will be soon enough, Practice with the new equip so when you die, [and you will die] and find more ,you will know what to do with it. -
You already break a leg when you crawl over a bump what will happen when you jump from roof top to rooftop?, very risky, but that might make it fun...
-
Hope there is at least one different map in standalone, I like the lingor island one, to few servers, haven't downloaded free version yet.
-
I like the Frogger metaphor and have used it myself prior to reasding this post. I have been to small towns that are over run with zombies around and in it. In the youtube tutorials and gaming vids, guys just run around and never see one while they are looting. WTF? (Whytheface) Hopefully i"m learning and getting better, hard to find time to play. The real booger in the biscuit is I set aside and hour to play and it takes 20 minutes to get on a server.

Still nice players out there
islandjack1 replied to charliedontsurf's topic in New Player Discussion
I am a nice player and will help if I can. I'm really bad at the game so I probably don't have anything, but the idea is there. I play under G. Quagmire and say Giggity pretty often on the direct channel Just say Giggity back an we can team up. -
I hope the stand alone game has several maps also, even if you have to buy them as expansions. Would add to the variety greatly.
-
We should be able to use bloodbags on ourselves. I play alone and have no use for them or epipens, food is the only way of getting blood back and the 200/800 point system takes soooooo long. Maybe make the self used blood bag 6000 ml instead of the full ride to even it out a bit?

Bandits and Mass Murderers. . . They hunger.
islandjack1 replied to Bulk's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I like for there to be some disadvantage to killing another player so it make you have to make yet another hard decision. Is the death worth it or just for fun? -
Where is the Takistan map? I have heard of Lingor island but not this one
