Best place to find a tent? NV Goggles?
S1ippery Jim replied to Jakeob22's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Tents can always be found in unrepaired ATVs, there are several spawn locations for these, one of which is at Black Lake near a rock on the north eastern edge of the lake -
I actually don't mind respawning there because you are close to Stary for some good loot :) Usually when you spawn inside the Novy building you can get out if you keep running at the wall near the door, however if this doesn't work You can click the respawn button there is a thread on how to do it here is the vid from it Or you can wait until you starve or die of thirst.

If your camp was raided, what would you do?
S1ippery Jim replied to Inception.'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Post of the day xD I have a radio, found it in a tent. It completes my tool belt nicely, looks hella cool in my inventory. Does eff all though. -

I'm pretty sure you can use fuel pumps to refuel in Lingor, not that I've had a change to try this

Make Death a Loss, Re: Tents, Inventory
S1ippery Jim replied to catface.jpg's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I kind of agree with this (although I would lose a lot if it were implemented). Perma death should mean you are unable to come back from the dead and get all your gear back from your camps -
Can my laptop play on max (sorry for asking!)

What's the farthest fall you've had without breaking your legs?
S1ippery Jim replied to colekern's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Fell of hospital roof and landed on a fence which broke my fall. Basically as long as you fall on an object you can survive a fall from any height -
On servers where you drop gear when swimming you lose everything except tool belt items

Looking for the app that shows vehicle locations
S1ippery Jim replied to reuben5150's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Great. Admin abuse and hacker colaboration to counter supposed hacker attacks on their precious vehicle hoard. Is this what DayZ has come to? I find it alarming that admins have the ability to pinpoint vehicle locations via logs, this should be removed pronto, there is already enough abuse with admins locking their servers until they have hoarded all the vehicles on the map. -
PBX spawns near the end of the inlet north of Olsha, its the best boat because it can do 70 spd, you can also often find very slow boats near the shipwreck at Guba, and randomly down the coast around Berezino (I wouldn't bother with these they only go 10-12 spd)

New Lingor Private Hive, True 100+ Vehicles

Tanks? Hell yeah! -
How to avoid logging in on the coast.
S1ippery Jim replied to Muncywolverine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
This 100% works for me -
BTW you can find tents inside spawned ATVs (for instance the black lake ATV spawn near the rock)

You've pretty much just listed every crappy gun in the game bar the makarov

Is KOS really that big of a problem?
S1ippery Jim replied to colekern's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I think your questions are flawed, there is little alternative there for people who want to play solo as a non aggressor -

Live Stream: S1ippery Jim plays new map Utes for the first time
S1ippery Jim replied to S1ippery Jim's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Thanks to everyone that hung out with me during the stream, died a lot but it was fun! -
So I noticed several private servers now have "No PVP" and "Bandits will be Banned" rules. All I can say is: WTF. It's not DayZ without PVP. How much of a lame ass scrub do you have to be to make rules that no one can PK in your server? What exactly is the point or challenge to running around looting and collecting high powered military grade guns when apparently the only things you can shoot are zombies and rabbits? I mean, by all means make your own rules on private serves but don't expect any respect if you want to water down the game.

Blowing Up a Dude in the Barracks with Satchel Charges
S1ippery Jim posted a topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Hi Guys Here is episode 2 of my Satchel Charge Shenanigans series. This time I blow up the barracks while a guy is looting it! -
Look, I could choose to adopt a zombie pacifist gameplay style if I wanted, getting f*cked up by the first infected I encounter would be the disadvantage of that particular style of play. Choosing to rigidly play non-pvp would have the same disastrous consequences unless you are really really good at stealth. However, having said that, sometimes in DayZ sh*t happens no matter what you do or how you choose to play.
-
The number of people who Kos is greatly exaggerated, and appears higher than it actually is. The stats show that currently only 15% of people are actually bandits. I would suggest from that fact that a few people are doing most of the Kos which seems to be occurring, making it appear more widespread than it actually is. Personally, I still often choose to let other players live. But taking that choice away from players by imposing server rules banning PVP is absolutely weak.
-
"And these points are exactly what OP is missing" How so? While the non PVP apologists that have posted above have tried to imply that I am somehow advocating KOS as the only way to play, thats not the case at all. I have been playing DayZ longer than most people on this thread, and I can tell you I appreciate both coop, lone wolf, care bear and bandit styles of play, as well as the more recent medic and trader roles. I'm against mandatory server rules banning players for any kind of PVP. The choice should be there (as DayZ was designed) to PVP or not to PVP based on your individual choice, not on some arbitrary server admins idea of how people should be playing on a server he has made accessible to the public. Why would anyone choose to play a realistic zombie apocalypse survival horror MMO and then rent a server so that they can make said zombie apocalypse safer by imposing their own divergent rules banning a key ability such as PVP? That's pretty much easy mode folks, I am going to assume people asking me why I think that's lame are being either ironic or moronic. Don't take the sand out of the sandbox, you'll find its not that fun if you do.

Four months Satchel Charges Bear Traps The rocket launcher (although I found 3 rockets for it in the barracks once)

I completely agree that the PVP aspect of the game is unbalanced at the moment, and that there should be more of a benefit to not killing on sight than there is at the moment, however for people to make rules to completely remove what you call the only threat in the game (player killing, hackers are impossible to get rid of at the moment sadly) from their non hive servers is just cheap and pathetic.
