    Once you get the standalone

    Find a ATV and see how easy it flips
  2. Sounds awesome, with many types of infections, players need different types of antibiotics, love it. Has anyone thought of adding a backpack dedicated to those wishing to play the medic yet? bright white with a red cross on it, is 30 item slots and unable to fit anything but medical supplies?
  3. Woke up on the beach, it was dark, sky was completly blanketed with dark clouds, i was close to Balota air strip, i got lucky and found a G17. I decide to check the medical tents across the highway, as i climbed down one of the deer stands my legs got broken by a zombie. I begin the long crawl towards Cherno stopping every once in a while to scan around using the torch attached to the G17. Onwards i crawl in complete darkness using my G17's torch every now and then, i spot someone near the beach via them using there torch, i call out for help, they approach and see my G17, i explain that i need morphine from Cherno hospital, "would you please help me, can you get me some morphine" i ask. "Sure i can help" they say "but i have no weapon" they say "how about you give me that G17 you got in case i run into any trouble" they say... I think to myself at this point "yeah fucken right, like im going to give my only form of defence away to a complete stranger who will a) shoot me with my own gun? or B) leave me for dead / force me to crawl for morphine? The one and only bandage i had got used, i had nothing, no food, nothing to drink, no painpillz, just this G17 and 1 mag with probably 10 rounds left it in, so i was desperate, i told the guy to come closer and ill put the G17 in his backpack, pew pew pew to the face, i now have a bandage and painpillz, and after a long long crawl, i did make it to Cherno and got my morphine. I will never forget that night, till this day im unsure if made the right decision, it may or may not have been the worse thing ive done, i will never know......
  4. Since everyone is giving there honest feedback. From my observation the game has turned into nothing more than a PvP shooter. It has not evolved into the game i had hoped. Im guilty of playing the bandit, im also guilty of playing the hero, i stick with hero when playing on official hive since humanity actually works on them servers. But as for the private hives, it benefits the bandit. As i see it, the DayZ community splits into 3 catogories. 1) -Bandit- = This type of gamer while varied has no interest in your feelings, most will kill you just for the LOL's and pleasure of knowing the one they just killed will rage and get upset, that is why most do it, they get some satisfaction causing others grief, lets be honest, its not because you might have some food or drink, or gear they wish to steal, they do it for self gratification. they are selfish. 2) -Hero- = This type of gamer gets joy out of helping other players out, they enjoy the excitement of meeting new people and feelings needed, wanting to have a purpose in life, to give something back to humanity and help fight against the zombie infested world now everyone has to endure. They are selfless. 3) -Survivor- = This type of gamer is unsure of his destiny, as they walk down the road the paths split into 2, they have now been shot at, killed, helped out by strangers, they ask themself "who am i?". The majority will turn into bandits unfortunatly, fact is, once you have been shot at or killed 9 out of 10 encounters with other human beings, you tend to think thats the norm and best way to survive. Its called "conditioning" They create the mindset that hero's are either complete idiots and have a deathwish, or they have balls of steel. It all comes down to survival and no one wants to loose there gear, so for the survivor, the choice becomes clear, if you cant beat em, join em, become yet another bandit who will KoS, get a few laughs & drink from the victims tears, better they spawn on the beach somewhere with nothing than you right? the saying "Trust no one" is the conditioning everyone has adopted. Opportunity to meet new players while ingame have been greatly reduced due to this conditioning, the threat to life in DayZ does not come from flesh eating zombies, it comes from the other players, someone please remind me what this game is called? it has become more about surviving against other players rather than surviving against the zombies. In closing, i have my doubts about the stand alone being the game i emagined, but then again, perhaps its a reflection of what humanity is like here in the real world, humanitys future always rests in the next generation. This game is giving us an example of what the world might turn out like, thats if you take your game simulations seriously, because thats what i thought this game was about...

    Weapon switching

    now there is food for thought, why not make it so that only the czech backpack has the ability to carry 1 primary weapon, all other backpacks in the game can't. the choice one would face, think about it? would you sacrifice a coyote(24slot) for a czech so you could carry that rare find, you already have 2 primary weapons slung over each shoulder.

    Weapon switching

    I see what he means, i see what you mean, lets pretend the player can wield 2 primary's weapons slung over each shoulder, not inside backpack. Make it so backpacks can not store primary weapons, make it so each individual item that can be placed into a backpack a maximum of 5(handgun) everything else must be carried in main inventory (Engines, wheels, rotor) Switching between Sniper/hunting rifle & AKM or what ever, i see how handy that would be, i would have to agree having a set button to operate a toggle between primary weapons could add a whole new dimension to the PvP + Zeds combat. To only have the ability to carry 2 primary weapons and no more unless in the trunk of a car etc. Sounds reasonable to me, could be interesting to try.
  8. Cool story bro. No really, cool story :)

    Yahtzee "Zero Punctuation" reviews Dayz

    So what if its old, i for one had not seen it & appreciate the OP for posting it up, beans for OP, ty
  10. I for one think its great, awesome work to all involved, community and devs. For those concerned with the combat logging when being attacked by hackers, remember it works both ways, example being, if a hacker spawns behind you with an as50 and blows your head off, they are now in a predicament. Think about it....

    Killing New Bandit Skin Hacker

    Beans to you, good job killing that hacker and destroying the hacked in gear, lets hope this evidence will help them track this douch bag down and global ban his ass
  12. Looks great, a game rich in texture adds to the realistic feel. When i think about a game that i would enjoy above all others, it is a must to have a realistic look and feel. This game comes very close to the game i dream of. All that is missing is= 1) Limb decapitation for Zombies, Animals & Humans. 2) More blood and guts, blood trails. 3) Zombies being the main threat to survival, only PvP is 70% due to friendly fire, other 30% asshat bandits. (plus would be great if once a player turned bandit skin, NPC's spawn at random locations & actively hunt down said bandit) 4) Doors that can be barricaded and broken down, broken through by Zombies. 5) Stench meter, allowing for detection of dead. (i do like the fly's, but they should disappear after set amount of time) (plus can allow for infection if have no face mask, bandetta or gas mask) <-- perhaps even a clothes peg lol. 6) Map size so large that a helicopter would need stop for fuel once or twice in order to reach from 1 side to the other. 7) Many more melee weapons with different damage outputs. 8) Many more clothing options. 9) Many more drug types, both legal & illegal, including alcohol, tobacco & caffeine. 10) Fire damage, molotov's & flamethrowers. <--- even if its just a can of fly spray & lighter. 11) More zombie types & increase in zombie numbers. <--zombies really do need be the No.1 threat. 12) Many more animal types plus vermin, like rats, foxes, snakes, bears. <--if i were hungry enough id eat a rat or cat. Could think up more, but i wanna get back into gaming ☺
  13. Running down to the beach with a backpack & inventory full off empty whiskey bottles & empty tin cans to kill a fresh spawn while taunting him over voice, throwing can after can, bottle after bottle, slowly bleeding him out till fallen unconscious, but still, they may regain consciousness, keep throwing cans & bottles, and if run outta trash plan B, 1st choice is axe...

    So, what's changed?

    For the loyal DayZ players who would'nt piss on WarZ developers teeth if were on fire, being one such loyal dayZ fan, i was really hoping the dayZ team released a new DayZ patch including dogs into the game the same day the WarZ alpha access began, oh well, was wishfull thinking.
