Broadside (DayZ)

Hi all, This thread will be a place I will post an upcoming mash of videos involving me and my group of fuck ups. The videos will be full of bad language, stupidity and hilarity, but don't lack the bum-clenching tense moments where a horde of zombies come round a corner. Enjoy the first instalment of our energy drink fuelled gun frenzy here: BE WARNED: lots of naughty words, so if you're offended, well, deal with it. More shall be coming soon, so enjoy. M.G.

Here is the second instalment of the Misfits clusterfuck across Chernarus. A little bit longer this time but full of starfish tickling moments. I think the title says it all.

They look cool, but they fit more with a Metro/STALKER vibe. My personal opinion should have been that all survivors get random skins from the NPC civilians in the Arma2 engine and bandit skins should have been random Chedaki skins. Either way, I'm just waiting to have my bandit skin removed to stop dickhead survivors going all gun-ho on my arse every time I try to cross the road.

+12329473894265r896r98620946dgfhfgfg938r7348% for flickering lights and sparse dim lighting. Like four out of 10 randomly work, two flicker, one is dim, one is normal brightness in a random pattern throughout the cities but only the big cities like Elektro/Cherno/Solnich and Berezino. I reckon you should have one or two in the starter towns on the coast as reference points.

Never monthly sub. I'd happily dosh out £20 quid or so for it if it came as a neat packaged game like IRON FRONT: Liberation 1944 has just done. I snapped that shit up like a mofo, but I will never pay a recurring fee for a game. Besides, you'll destroy the community you've gathered (whether you care or not) and as a reference, Blizzard is already at the sucking dick stage to get players back. Keep it in the family, no point getting the community involved, keep it with the studio, that way ideas don't get fucked up. Getting a name behind it, BI for example, and having it a one time payment will give enough money for decent support (not that you aren't fixing this like a baus already) but it also gives it drive. I'd love to buy and own DayZ in my steam list and be able to play a polished product.

What Thrax said. As cool an idea as contract killing is and it is a fun mechanic in STALKER, unless we had either hard currency (pointless in an apocalypse where there is no primitive society) or a safe zone to use said currency, you'd just take one to the teeth the second the other guy is dead. Top idea, couldn't be executed though.

Fantastic read mate. I think someone else signature on this board has it down perfectly, 'You shoot me because of how I look and you call me a murderer?'

Dude this was fucking fantastic. I was listening to it while playing at night, tell you what I fucking shit myself when the zombie came for you.

Thanks lads. Mayhem is what we do best.

Yep, got the same.

Well, it's entirely your choice whether to become a bandit or not. I have the bandit skin, but I'd consider myself an actual Survivor, not those trigger happy baseball cap wearing bean hoarders, but an actual Survivor. I make sure the first thing I have is a compass and enough water to stave off dehydration. Then I get the hell out of dodge, keep to the tree lines and low walls, using the ridges and hills to hide myself from the horizon. You make the choices. There is no predetermined path you must follow, I won't shoot a man unless I have to or feel threatened. If you do wish to go bandit remember only one thing, you can always trust a bandit, because he'll shoot you in the face when you expect it. You can never trust anyone wearing a survivor skin, they'll shoot you in the back when you aren't expecting it.

I suppose the only real way you can judge what people would do is to, well, not judge. It's entirely likely that most of us, if not almost all of us would be zombie meat and those that would end up doing something would just do it. Speculation gets you killed in the apocalypse, instinct keeps you going.

I would buy the first one. I would masturcry for a hoodie.

^This. It's bred an utter hatred for Survivors.

At first I tried to avoid outright slaughtering survivors. In fact, I was pretty damn helpful but it got to the point where bandits were not a problem and neither were the zombies. It was the other fucking survivors that batter and abuse the trust you offer in friendship to cross a few streets with an extra pair of eyes at your back. I've actually lost track of how many times it was Survivors who shot me and not bandits. So eventually I became tired of being the one shot at and began being the one who did the shooting and I don't even feel anything any more when I put one of those baseball caps in my iron sights. At least with us bandits, people know where they stand, on the other side of our guns because lets face it, it's a dog eat dog world. Survivors are all just lying scum who cling to the pretence of morality. Welcome to the pack.
