I work together in a team, with other players in my teamspeak. I think thats a point people are missing. There are alot of people who came to this game and want to meet up with and work with complete strangers. I don't diss it, its their choice. But Ive worked with "strangers" before and even when they are trying to help they will screw things up. The only path this is going to lead to is teaming up in a clan and organizing together outside of a game or lonewolf. Unless Rocket does something radical like automatching with no "party" feature its the only way it will go no matter what he does to the game.

Yep definately a hacker. Steak and Potatoes clearly hack crashed his vehicle in revenge.

KIll them as soon as I can. Ill probably never run into him again anyways. Ive nothing to gain from him being alive. I gain being in the position to stop him from helping people I want to kill later on.

Thats dependent on server. Some admins have fixed that.

If anything, they are scamming the banks. Im all for that. Those fucks have been destroying peoples lives for centuries. Not to mention what happened in the US under George.W.

The zero depends on zoom. At full zoom its 400m. I haven't used it enough, nor do I want to be killing targets at 300m with the DMR, but I believe each zoom is 100m, fully unzoomed is 100m, next level 200m, next 300m and full zoom 400m. Then you start using the mildots over 400m. I haven't had success with it over 400m though. I rarely get a target not moving at over 400m which thus far is a really hard shot for me. I can still hit moving targets between 400m-500m really often with the M14 so for me its not really worth packing a DMR for that very rare occasion where I see a target not moving between 500m and 800m. Theres just alot of waiting and camping to get a non moving target at these ranges. The AS50 and M107 on the other hand, you can hit shots from alot further away, so if your going to snipe, I really don't think the DMR is worth the space.

Hiding bodies is one of the only forms of loot deflation in the game. I hide every body I come across whether Ive killed the person or not. Ill even risk getting killed doing it to an extent. As a bandit one of my objectives is to remove gear from the game so that I can have an advantage over other players. Its also not realistic to know exactly where you died in a previous life.

Where I am from you cannot take photographs near airports. I thought it was common sense in these times. Anyways, good luck with it.

FYI Lingor already has a fairly large public hive.

I see it more as exploiting poor game design than cheating. There are alot of things like this that go on in the game. We are kind of supposed to be testing this stuff, since we are Alpha testers. Only problem is it looks like the standalone is going to be taking this same design, so this shit will continue for the life of the game.

So how far away are you hitting moving targets (right to left or left to right) with the DMR?

Your wrong about the PvP. Im a bandit and I kill around 8-10 players on average every night. I move around and try to seek out people. The thing about the mechanics with PvP is because you have moved around alot your aim is off, just like it would be in a real firefight. Their aim is often not, so they are at an advantage. In these situations take cover a regather your breath. Then kill them. WIth snipers, most of them are dealt with easily. I agree the AS50 is somewhat BS, but its all about closing the distance and making the situation in your favor. Use the terrain, close the gap, keep cover and wait for them to make the mistake. Use suppressive fire if needed. The PvP is more realistic in this game than any other FPS I have ever played and I say that as a former soldier in the Infantry.

What do you think of the m24? I think its a much better sniper rifle than the DMR and can use DMR ammo by conversion.

WTF? Why no dogs yet?

Be aware that whilst the DMR is theoretically better, the M14 is alot easier to use and will outperform it until you get good with the DMR. TBH though, I think the DMR is pretty bad compared to other sniper rifles available in the game ie AS50, M107, M24.

It can be beneficial not to know sometimes. Last night I came up to a firefight in progress. I flanked around and killed 3 players who were busy looking the otherway in a firefight. Turned out one of them was the admin. They accused the other players they were fighting with for using teleport hacks and banned them. I guess they could have banned me otherwise.

I haven't experienced the problem. I had been carrying around an M14 and a MKmod0 for a while and switching them for when I wanted suppressive fire.

M14. Im a bandit and I really prefer this weapon over any other. It really fucks your shit up.

It kinda sucks getting around and killing low geared players for a few cans of beans and sodas. I go north but it seems like most servers Im playing on are just casual PvE servers with players sitting in cherno/elektro/Calamar for hours on end gathering loot. Then put up no challenge when I kill them. The thing I enjoy most about this game is PvP and I enjoy taking on clans even more. The thrill of a wide scale firefight is one of the most enjoyable things in DayZ. But its hard to find servers with active clans :( Anyone recommend any servers where PvP is widespread, without it being Thunderdome PvP?

Try being a hero then come back and tell me how you feel about it. Heroes need to get into and near survivors to help them to get their humanity up. Bandits can kill them from range before they become a threat. With the bandit playstyle, your able to dictate the gameplay and the hero has to adapt to it, which is why I said one weapon isn't enough as you need the utility to deal with bandits. The only thing that makes a hero easier is the fact that alot of them are admins who can respawn fully geared. Although the same could be said for bandits, just that admins tend to want to become heroes to promote a community in their server, or at least the good ones do.

It was changed a little while back. It used to be you couldn't get knocked out unless you were below 9k. Now there is a random chance on any hit to knock you out. The knockouts at 11k/12k aren't really a threat though. Go shoot a cow or two boars and 12k again.

Its more a public hive vs private hive thing. Its not considered acceptable in private hives and its known not to be. In public hives nobody cares.

Try accidentally leaving one of those boxes ticked whilst installing a program that says "yes I would like to add the Babylon toolbar". My PC could be in the middle of an atomic explosion and the babylon toolbar would still be there.

I haven't had a problem with hackers using godmode lately. I used to Alt F4. Now I just try to kill them. If it becomes apparent they are using godmode than I will log. After I kill a hacker I will log and go to another server, because Ive done this before and found they are back trying to kill you 10 seconds later.
