    Is Rocket actually Bear Grylls?

    Paging Man vs. Wild...
  2. This is quite definitely true. I will agree that the weight of the weaponry is not implemented at this time. I believe that Rocket has stated that will change in the standalone. As far weaponry not being there because it's a European setting? You think the military units that are there to stop the outbreak are bringing Enfields and Winchesters with them? Take a look at some pics from Iraq and Afghanistan for a good idea at what a modern expeditionary force will bring to the table. Simple fact: if the military of 1 or more first world countries were to deploy for something like this, there would be a fuckton of heavy weaponry and infantry weapons there with them. Setting of the host country makes very little difference, except for what you will find in civilian houses. If there is a multinational force (as is hinted at), there will be host country weapons as well as whatever one or more outside forces bring with them. Given the scenario, I find it quite believable to find mil weapons where they are found as lootable, with the addition of I would expect to find them laying around the roadblocks, etc. I would NOT expect to find magic tents that spit out LMG's like a kids bubble blower, but that really has nothing to do with the premise of the game, or the OP maintaining that there should be nothing other than what he likes to play with.

    How many registered users are stil active?

    :lol: I'm dying over here!
  4. So you want .50's out, but you want vehicles to stay? You still don't get it. In real life, military weapons are both more common AND more reliable than civilian weapons. In the scenario at hand, there would be lots of mil weapons out and about, because they were being employed against the infected, AND their owners got killed or infected themselves. If you are NOT trolling (doubt it), give it some thought about what YOU would see in YOUR neighborhood post infection. You want Romero weapons in a post Romero world-doesn't work. Maybe you can find someone to make a zombie mod set in '58. Short of that, the weapons in this mod, as they are (discounting duping and hacking in extra stuff) is pretty close to how it would be. The only way they would NOT be in circulation would be if the military had not been overrun and was still operating with command and control. And take you hacking comment and stick it somewhere uncomfortable, m'kay?
  5. Dude, just because that's how you want to play, doesn't mean that's how others want to play. If you are so afraid of the big bad .50's, go play on some low pop server or something. The whole point of getting higher end weapons is to GET A FREAKING ADVANTAGE OVER THE OTHER GUY. Stop whining because Rocket didn't make the game you wanted. If you don't like DayZ, don't play DayZ. I'm sure Care Bears in Disneyland would be more your speed.

    WOOOOAAA

    :huh: Well then how do you intend on trading? If it's a giveaway on a pub, I'm all over it. When and where?
  7. Ya know, when you first log in, it tells you in the lower right corner what town is closest to you. With that info, someone would be able to find you and either end your misery or revive and heal you. Give us something to work with here.
  8. NickM (DayZ)

    WOOOOAAA

    Yes I do want it. Did you want something in return for it?
  9. Do you even proofread you crap for inconsistancies before posting?
  10. Hmm, until my tent ate it, I had one I found in a tent in Stary that most definitely was camo'd. Did not delete my backpack when putting it in there either...which is supposed to be a giveaway of it being hacked in.

    s3ri0us158 gets a plus one from me. Setup a drop tent trade due to different time zones. Tent apparently ate the stuff I left for him, but he left his part of the trade anyway. I will make good, but very cool of him to hold up his end without being sure that I would.

    Very good point, Rocket. Is there a mechanism in plalce currently for this?
  13. That one's not hacked.
  14. NickM (DayZ)

    Quick Trade !

    How's come you never picked up the ones I left for you? Now the server has eaten them-don't know if they will come back.

    Looking for Tents...Trading the following gears

    Do you have multiples, or just one of each?
  16. :huh: Does that count as a murder or a suicide?

    Trading my m14

    Want an M4A1 CCO SD? ;) Seriously, didn't like it?
  18. NickM (DayZ)

    Zombie aggro adjustments.

    FWIW, out past 500 yards or so, IRL, there is no way of telling (by sound) what direction a shot came from. You can tell if the round goes through more than one object (floow the trail of blood an guts!), butthe sound at that range is non-directional.

    There is a good chance of getting a morphine at the airport. Just sayin'

    My m4sd for a m14 or m24

    FWIW, I'va been ripped up pretty quick by that particular weapon in the past. So, my dead body says "Yes, they do kill players quite effectively". :)
