Why Are You Capitalising The First Letter Of Every Word Like This? - genuine question too, i see more and more people typing like this and by this point i need to know the reasoning behind it. in reponse to your question, M14 hands down - fucking great gun. can't forget the Lapua either, that's my favourite sniper.

ok, just looked into it and i indeed had the 'Z' in the name wrongly figured - it's an assumption i've always held and never looked into, i will happily admit that i'm wrong there. as for the different understanding, yes indeed it seems we do and i will leave it at that as i'm not looking to argue - opinion be opinion, assumption be assumption and fact be fact.

you'd inevitably get the odd few little kids who think its a great idea to kill a load of zombies and drag their corpses into patterns such as swastikas because they're 'such hilarious guys', asides from that i think the idea is a winner. fake trails could indeed be very interesting

wow. just wow.

my ideal DayZ would be the first patch released after removing handgun from spawn but without the loot bugs, graphics glitches and zombie coming through solid surface glitches (and obviously houses breaking your legs and shit) - but with demongroover's mentioned huge world. all this building houses crap that people are into now such as epoch just gets on my nerves and detracts from the immersion for me, it's DayZ not minecraft

no it really isn't, the game is called DayZ - Z standing for zombies. the logo/imagery is centred around zombies. the game is a zombie survival game. zombies are by definition a core feature... your opinion is whether or not you personally regard zombies as important. you can use your phone and regard the dialling function as unimportant whilst favouring shit like facebook apps or whatever, but it doesn't detract from the fact that the dialling system is the core feature of a telephone.

if some arsehole can monetise something they will monetise something, that's the be all and end all of it. greedy pricks are the ones doing it, and CoD kiddies looking for a way in to the game are the ones buying into it - pricks all the same :)

you need arma 2 and arma 2 operation arrowhead, DayZ is a mod applied to operation arrowhead

that is genuinely pointless man, no one's 'jizzing in their pants' here, it is just a bad idea.

sounds like the beta patch, use 103718

i've actually never seen a hero - and i've played since july 2012 haha

360420YOLO stories

no, or i'd have said 'glad to see a useless town having a reason to be visited' or something to that effect. what i mean is that from this picture of polyana i deduce that the towns that are useless will have added buildings that will make them useful. places like vyshnoye, dolina and nadezhdino EDIT: oh, and shahovka too, that town has one of the best names and yet is totally pointless to visit

haha just flagged this as french spam then realised its italian... fail

i've seen this twice now, once in each of two different servers; i've gone to staryj only to find that the military tents arent there anymore and instead there are two barracks. i'm assuming this is a server-side change as they were both private hives BUT the barracks were both in the same place on both servers and the servers were in no way connected. my questions is thus; is that actually something that has changed with this patch or is it just a coincidence that both times i've gone to staryj since updating the server owner decided to change that?

it's because 'in russia server joins you' or some other typical phrase like that i think

edit: cut

camo netting has been implimented in 1.8, this topic is from january for that that haven't realised the OP date

finally someone else calls epoch out for what it is, utter crap. kudos and beans for you rossums, you crazy scottish french bastard :D (that's said in jest, no one cry about that)

Yep, as many posters before me have said it's pretty much the people - not the game. Way too many CoD kiddies saw youtube stuff from Frankie and others and thought they'd have a piece of the action, not being able to comprehed anything beyond 'I have a gun that must mean I kill everyone I see, the comms system must just be for talking about how I fucked someone's parents despite being a pre-pubescent virgin'. Man I remember when it was all friendly and shit and you hid from the ONE choppi on the server, back when it was 'want another choppi in the server? TOUGH!' - that was the way forward. More than one heli is just annoying, now even public hive vanilla has like 3 or something. "would love an older version of dayz bugfixed to play on" couldn't agree more, I was actually thinking of renting a server and putting one of the first patches on, but then decided that I can't be bothered as it'll just get played the same way anyway and I'm not paying for some 12 year old FPS fanboy to come running through my cities with his OMGYOLO23492384HELISMILSTARTOUTGEARPAY2WTFOMG420 tactics. fuck that.

looking forward to some previously useless towns having a reason to be visited :)

yeah i never really htought of it like that with the sight thing, hmm. i'd definitely be happy to see it implimented anyway, let's see what other people think on it - either way i like it.

i believe they changed the name, it's called something like 'AwfulZ' now if i remember rightly. anyway, horrible idea, move along!

it's a good idea at heart, but the thing that stops me from totally agreeing is that the zeds are just humans with a disease. humans don't smell blood and hormones in the same way that predatory animals such as dogs or whatever do so why would a human infected with a debilitating disease? also as for the bodily odour, the zeds likely smell a whole lot stronger than other humans - unclean smell as well as hormones - as they have less control over what they conciously do (such as shitting themselves, pissing themselves, getting all covered in blood and other stuff from the world around them) and so they would have to be attracted to each other more than humans under such logic or even not be able to distinguish the scent of something else because they themselves smell so strongly they mask external smells from themselves. *such as shitting themselves* i'm at work, i nearly erupted into laughter when i read this part back :D like i say man i think it's a genuinely good idea but the logic or mechanics behind it would need a serious thinking over in my opinion. you still get some beans from me though, cause it's nice to see a genuinely good suggestion rather than another post about some server titled 1337 EPOCH SPAWN WITH YOLO OMG 420 LOOT MILITARY SERVER WTF OMG :)
