Can anyone help with out of game commo? Need help with Skype, teamtalk, etc.. Are there any free ones easy to use? Now I just use direct commo in game.
-
I have skype loaded on my computer, is it free to use so I can give out my username and have friends talk to me while playing.

You only meet your first game player once - What did he do?
islandjack1 replied to selmack's topic in New Player Discussion
I spent 30 minutes sneaking up on and reconning a barn, I go in and get my first loot ever, As I get in the middle where you can see out both sides, a sniper on the hill shoots me through the open door. Instant death from high caliber. I've learned to never come back out the door you went in, lazy bandit types will just let you do the work and then kill you for your supplies. -
[Standalone] Lingor Island & Panthera

Would really enjoy alternate maps and have the game changed to reflect the hardships that various different climates present. -
A Pessimist's View of the Standalone
islandjack1 replied to flower (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I'll just be happy if the hackers are gone, anything else is just gravy. Not looking forward to packs of dogs and stuff in the woods, but will have to work around it. Waiting with bells on for the standalone. -
Recently I have been getting kicked off of recruit level servers. I get in, play for about 30 seconds, then get the message You have been kicked from the Game. Not having that problem on Regular and up servers. Anyone know why this is? No hacked equip. Just Lee Enfield and food/drinks.

Kicked off game on all recruit servers
islandjack1 replied to islandjack1's topic in New Player Discussion
I wish, I just hold my own on the recruit, low pop servers. I have a few friends that will be playing when the standalone comes out, and I will move up to regular when the posse has my six! HAHA -
Kicked off game on all recruit servers
islandjack1 replied to islandjack1's topic in New Player Discussion
Thanks, I'll try setting the Game options as you suggested. I just found that setting the other day and wondered what it is for. I'm getting on more consistently but still get kicked some times. No rhyme or reason as it is on all different servers from different countries, no particular one. I've gotten two error messages saying something like "Memory#29" when I get kicked. I have no clue on that one either. -

No good ideas I guess? I am stuck playing on regular servers from now on. Still enjoy the game. -
How Hacking Costs Rocket (Bohemia) Money, AND WHY THAT DOESN'T MATTER (includes reply from Rocket)
islandjack1 replied to jaws4096's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I just enjoy the game. If I have to start over, so be it. There is no winning or losing, so who cares? If it was hacked every time I played, then I would wait for the standalone. 'til then, I'll be running around saying Giggity. Pins and needles for the standalone to come out and will buy it asap. Just have fun with it. -
Theres nothing to do in DayZ
islandjack1 replied to Eazy-Makaveli's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I enjoy the survival portion of the game as well as exploring. In a month I still haven't seen all the different places. I have a buddy who plays once in a while and it is fun to find him across the map and then help him with how the game works. Take noobs under your wing and rack up z kills in interesting ways. That should keep you occupied. Climb to the top of light houses and throw flares, follow people around saying Giggity, no end to fun and funny possibilities. Building a safe camp should be the actual end game. See how big an army you can get with vehicle and helicopters and take the war to the zombies until you kill 10,000. Go all military clearing cherno or elektro of all zombies and see how long you can hold it with large groups of players. Make your own airfield and ammo dump. If you do any of this, I'll help. Whoop!! -
Where are the 1200000 players?
islandjack1 replied to Nille (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I have been playing on low pop DE servers and not had many problems. One hacker [only other player on server] just happened to drive a vehicle up to barn I was hiding behind in a small out of the way town, I ran for the woods and Battle eye kicked him about 30 seconds later. Still enjoying the mod an hour or so at a time and anxiously waiting for the stand alone. I hope the stand alone doesn't get too complicated with the inventory and underground, dogs in the woods stuff. Just getting used to the game the way it is. Also want a single playrer mode for traveling on my laptop and not putting up with KOS ers -
Inland or Coastal Isolation?
islandjack1 replied to Wolfpanzer (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
I've been playing for a month and have never seen antibiotics, what do they look like? -
I have been playing for about a month and have visited all of the bigger towns except cherno and elektro. I have yet to find an open church to loot. Every one has doors that won't open. Where are the lootable ones other than cherno elektro? Was in Zelenogorsk this morning and the doors were locked, super market had everything I needed, just want to go in one. Next item, what does QQ stand for when someone is complaining about something on the forum? What does Alt/F4 do, I've tried it and it does nothing. What does respawn button do in options, it is never highlighted and if I die and want to play again, I have to back out all the way to 6 launcher to join another server. I have checked the button at various times during the game, and it is never lighted for me to use.

Lootable churches and other things...
islandjack1 replied to islandjack1's topic in New Player Discussion
Thanks for the answers, my game just became more enjoyable. Say hi to Quagmire if you see me on a server. Happy to trade or give if I have extra... Giggity -
Where is it, I would be interested in playing that.

Hope I meet you, I play alone 90% and can't transfuse. Wish they would change the mechanic so I can use epi pens and transfuse myself but until then.... Welcome. Come say Hi if you see Quagmire on the list, 14 days play time and no murders yet!!

No single player ones that I can find, There was one but Rocket made him take it down. Hopefully it will be a feature of the standalone game.

Increase survival aspect Of DayZ, increase scarcity of food
islandjack1 replied to JackWalsh's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Not sure about the loot spawning... Sometimes I'll find 6 loot spots of empty tins cans, other times in a barn I'll find three hatchets, or two or three double barreled shotguns... Then sometimes an ass load of soda and no food, other times lots of food and no drinks.... System is pretty good now, would like to see mare common stuff like food matched and knives and less military type weapons, more common revolvers and shotguns and cz deer rifles, that is in keeping with a former soviet republic. Also more AK based weapons and fewer M4 type stuff when ther e is military loot around. -
I do a combo of living in the woods and looting towns for the fun and ammo of it. I usually am by myself, so the 800 blood from the meat is a great feature if u take a couple z hits. My goal now is to see every town on the map.

Kind of annoying not being able to suicide
islandjack1 replied to MperorM's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
What is Alt F4? I push it and nothing happens. Also, respawn does nothing, it is never highlighted. I was teleported to the forest somewhere with a broken leg and no morphine. The only way to suicide was to but a weight on the W key and go mow the grass for an hour until I died of thirst. Some manner of suicide would be useful in situations where there is nothing around you but grass and trees. -
What will make DayZ a better Mod?
islandjack1 replied to Joker427's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Different maps to choose from in different biomes around the world needing different tactics and skills to survive. -
I'm seriously done.
islandjack1 replied to roflcopter127@yahoo.com's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I just enjoy playing to see how far I can get. Somedays its 5 min then 12 days in a row. Since you can't really win and will die sometimes even if you are doing everything right, just sit back and enjoy. Try to pull off funny stuff and entertain yourself, that's the point of playing a game. I'm usually by myself but occasionally team up with Mr. Cheesypoof for team work. I like exploring just to make sure I see everything that I watch on the Youtube videos. Just have fun, don't be so serious. PS What does "QQ" mean, not up on the acronyms?
