Roger, thank you. My overreaction in that case. I'm terribly sorry.

Me and my friend were playing and only one more person was on the server and I saw the horizon ablaze which as I recall implies som hacking. For some reason my print screen captures only the desktop so I made a picture with my phone. Sry. Impossibly bad quality, but, the players name was Tobias Walk. Time around 0900Z.

I'm a long time OPF/ARMA fan and was planning to visit Lemnos this year in advance of the Arma3 release. I chose not to, but just because I wanted to visit RL Chernarus before and did so in this august (Recommend to the max). Glad. Because I in the particular Czech area I did a lot of photographing and hiking - had I done that on Lemnos ...bloody hell. I signed, but I believe it will have little effect though. I have little faith in such attempts. I'll try to see if I can contact our local Greece representative. I'm from Estonia, a small country - usually we can here easily access high level politicians. I'll try contacting Polydore Kokonas - the Greek embassador here. Seems likely to have the biggest impact I could make. Maybe there won't be any effect because I will be ignored. Rather likely, but still - an effort I shall make. -

I remember this one time I was on patrol and fell into a ditch 2 m deep, although I was progressing really slowly. The only thing I could see was movement - the ditch was not dancing about so that might have helped him score. But yea, in that sense the really dark night in the woods is different, because standing still I can see really just sensor noise and a vagely distinguishable sky, but when I'm moving the space lets outs its shapes and shadows dance about and so I get some sense of the surroundings. I think I am gonna go to the woods the next time it's overcast and moonless ... got me damn curious now, have to retest. -

It is an anti-game, as they say. I love it. But, it's actually darn realistic. In the army when I was, patrolling the camp, on an overacast moonless night - the same shitless shitty black is what I saw. That's why I love arma. It makes you suffer as much as real life! -
Perceived usefulness of Weapons.

I have not played too long the z mod, but steam shows hours spent in arma over 900. I have only died once and my first survival lasted 15 hours. I died shortly after leaving my winchester in a military camp north of Berezino because I got charmed by the shine of an AK74. Actually not because of that, but because I had just 3 mags and when a horde jumped me I did not want to spend them right after acquiring them. So I took out my revolver and whilst doing that got knocked down and never managed to get up again when the 10+ zeds feasted on me. The Winchester is good against zeds. I had pellets loaded and was approaching a barn when a 15ish bunch spawned on top of me. Piece of cake with the Winchester - took me 10 rounds to finish them. So far the Winchester has been my best friend, then again I have not been engaged by bandits or else PvP. I saw just one other player in the beginning of my survival and after that I have just rarely heard shots in the distance - which I try to steer away from. So so far I agree - at least for noobs who can keep their head down and be patient, the Winchester is absolutely lovely. As for sidearms, the revolver does a nice job.
