NickM (DayZ)

You're comparing any DayZ mod to that wanna be kid? The nice thing about all the mods (of a mod-lol) is that it gives people a choice on how they want to play. Doesn't make any particular mod a "mess' because it's not your style...

Hmmm-you mean that mess that has over 2000 servers currently? THAT mess? That "mess" seems to be pretty damn popular.

This. Not only would you have been dead ingame, but IRL as well. Such is the power of undead Chuck. Nick

WUT? What have I been laying my head on all these years? >:(

Am I understanding this to be existing weapons will be disappearing? My pub hive char has a an M16A4 ACOG and an M107, as well as an M9SD. What will happen to those?

Not to mention such variables as M855 (62 grain 5.56) inconsistent fragmenting. If it fragments (not a 100% thing), it does MASSIVE damage. The wound looks like a bomb went off inside the target and one hit can generally cause death by bleeding out. If not death, at least some serious maiming. If it does NOT fragment, it will merely drill a .22 caliber hole that does very little damage. 7.62 x 39, while consistent, does very little damage to soft tissue in real life. Neither expanding or fragmenting, the tumbling when it hits tissue causes a temporary cavity that will usually close up after the bullet exits and end up looking like a needle wound.

I wonder how you guys would fare w/o the easy mode action (crosshairs, nametags, 3rd person). Would probably be like two monkeys doing a football.

Then you would have people logging in to empty servers and just lounging around accruing humanity. Think about the term "hero". If being a hero was easy, there would be no point to having it there in the first place. My pub server guy has 37K...

Lol-whatever. Yanking your chain. Besides, I mostly use Mumble or Vent. Server I'm on will kick you if you aren't on Mumble while playing, but it's strictly a team-based variant (FactionZ).

You'd probably have better luck if you got on TS and called in your group of friends from acros the map... :P

You spoke of the place that shall never be mentioned. Reported to the Mods.

What do you want the "C" for? The "K" is way better.

What's wrong with a little sexual violation among friends? If I'm helping you out, I expect a little compensation.

There sure is defense against getting one-hit-knocked the fuck out. Stay away from the zeds. Used to be id was suicide to do the run full tilt through town thing. It has been changed to make that a dangerous tactic again. Stay. Out. Of. The. Zeds. Range. That will be 10 bucks for the advice. I accept PayPal.

Luckily for you, in a zombie scenario, the military would abruptly disappear, taking all their weaponry with them to some alternate dimension. Just kidding. Do you honestly think their would be little or no military presence in this scenario?

I think we currently have around 80+ registered for this cycle. Pop in the evenings will be anywhere from 15 to 40 (the latter usually on the cycle events). Early mornings can be 0 but usually at least 3.

Then you didn't actually hit them. Period. M24, just like DMR and SVD (and CZ550) are almost a guaranteed knockout at that range with body shots, and will likely break a bone as well. If the player does not combat log and receives no bandaging before the knockout timer is up, they will bleed out a well. Go hit the armory and learn how to get lead on target, or check your internet connection. You are not hitting them if they keep running.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't bandits get a faster calm down from running for aim steadying purposes?

Private server, so every cycle, you are a new char. Cycle lasts one month, with cycles events on Saturday and an end of cycle big even for final scoring.

Hard to say what I would have done in that situation. I doubt they were there to specifically bandit you, however. If they were, they did so...poorly. Never start with the Makarov-that's just suicide. The only way to do it that way is to the back of someone's head that has no idea. The story smacks of startled to me. May I suggest VA's FactionZ? You play in a faction working with a team and we run events. New map every month. Just throwing it out there.

WTF kind of retard couldn't clear a FTE like that?

The part in red, taken in context with your avatar, tells me that this is something that your buddy (the hacker) and you agreed upon beforehand. We're not stupid here. No beans given.

Until SA, where zeds can spawn with no player present, you can use zeds as a sure fire indicator of player activity. In addition, if they chnage their movement pattersn and especially if even one agroes, the player is close to where they are getting riled up. Live and learn...or die and learn as the case may be. FWIW, I've died ALOT, so I should be some kind of frikking DayZ genious by now. :lol:

If food will be rare, it needs to be changed where a meal lasts longer than 30 minutes. Having to eat 5 times on a 10 KM march is ludicrous.

So he left, and you still had zed spawn making it obvious there were peole still in the area? No surprise he shot you. I would not have resumed looting, but instead unassed the area quickly and stealthily as soon as he drove off. Was pretty obvious on his tactics.
