The best BEST part of having really good gear is giving it away. Gave away a L85 to a stranger the other day. Gave a M9 SD away today to a guy I traveled half way across the map to morphine, he had no gun in Gorka, miracle he made it that far! Try it, meet a noob and give him your as50. It feels good!

I <3 You! I wanna give you raw meat cause it just seems sexier! Have more beans anyway. P.S. Check your email - this little piggie wants his W.L. Stripes!

I didnt think about it til today when someone brought it up but last night I was led to the Cherno hospital to save a patient, blood and morphine... I got there and he said he was on the roof... I thought nothing of it... Literally 3 seconds after the xfusion completed I was sniped. Never even heard the shot. I thought "How unfortunate, I sure will miss those NVGs" And now I fear I have been duped... Oh well, I still count it as a successful patient saved, thus is the life of a medic. Do your duty, Medics! We Do Not Discriminate, We Only Medicate!

I saw his post on the bandit forums. He is hunting any confirmed members of The Coalition - he is providing top tier loot to anyone who gives him intel leading to a Coalition Death. Job Hazard what we do is the polar opposite of what he does so its natural for him to see us as his enemy. Thank goodness there are more and more bodyguards popping up.

Obvious troll is obvious. Nothing to see here folks. You state that you know its Alpha and then you point out every single thing that happens in an Alpha as if you are unaware that it is an alpha. I've never been hacker killed. I have become part of an awesome community and have, for a large part, avoided or adapted to most of the glitches and bugs. I also know that most of the 1+ million people that are playing the Alpha are also enjoying it.(if the forums are any indication, that is) Now I understand you had a poor in game experience and that sucks, sorry bro. But because you haven't enjoyed it doesn't make it bad. I think baseball is dumb but my opinion does not define it. Clearly this game is not for you. Thanks for trying it out and on behalf of everyone else here, don't let the door hit you on the way out... It might break your legs.

As a person who is as we speak working on gaining acceptance into TMW and has met the requirements to be White Listed I LOVE THIS IDEA! By The Way, The bandits are absolutely shitting themselves over on their forums! Kudos and Well Wishes to Dr Wasteland for continuing to do what everyone said he did with TMW - Change the face of DayZ! RedFaction, I don't know you but you seem awesome too!

You guys are cute.

Gotta send a HUGE HUGE HUGE thank you out to Kryvian. He is a hell of a medic. and a hell of a guy. He goes by Doctor Hermit and not only did he help me with my saves today he also gave me a Coyote Pack to replace my respawn pack... Compass and other goodies. Great and trustworthy guy. Plus he is Romanian and that accent is rad!

I saved three people today and only one posted as requested... (Thanks to you!) If SCRUMP saved you (there was Travis on the train tracks in Komo & another leg breaker in the lektro hospital - please post so I can get my white listing!) I ran from DEEP west Zernigorsky to Gorka (9000 meters) then straight from there to Komo (8000 meters) then back up to Polovo (3k) then back to lektro (10.9k) and gave out everything I had on me save for my ghillie and my main weapon. I worked hard today. Broke 5500 humanity (HERO SKIN!) and am SO ready to become a Trusted Medic with those FAT white listing stripes.

if you are in the latest patches of everything (Battle eye mainly) Just log out and immediately log onto another server, once in game do that again. or until it coast spawns you, which it will. Or fire your gun to attract zombies, hopefully they will glitch into the container and kill you.

"...bla bla bla in a tent in a locale..." Too bad tents are not saving and eating gear in .5 I wouldn't do this deal til they fix tents.

HEY FELLOW SURVIVORS. My name is Scrump and I am a soon to be White Listed Medic who has an idea. I want to set up a series of tents from the west to the east at intervals up and down the map so that no matter where a medic is or how supplied he or she is or isn't a medic can be on locale to take care of a patient even on foot, as fast as possible. This requires some serious help however. What I need is people willing to place some starter tents to get this started. For the beginning we need tents in the woods north of Lektro, Cherno and Kamenka. As well as in the woods east of Berezino and somewhere around the NW airfield and Stary. Then they need to have meds thrown in them. I am assuming that if a person came across a tent with TONS of meds in it they would only take what they need and move on. SO if you have a tent & want to help out, place it somewhere clever and send me a PM with its exact locale (as close as you can give) and the server it is on. If you do not have GPS use www.dayzdb.com/map to figure it out. Once these tents are stocked. ( I will work on that) They can help save people faster than ever!

We need exact locales so we know which medic to send with 3000+ servers nobosy is going to server hop for 24 hours just hoping to find one guy to kill. Also if you are stranded in a town, know your locale and log out. a Medic can have you log in as he approaches your location. (id help but i wont be in game for a couple hours)

Well "most" patients are either near a starting city, Stary, or NWA so that is around the areas I want to start. Servers? I am actually thinking low pop night only servers in order to keep the tents hidden. EDIT FOR:Its really a thought that is still forming so any other ideas are more than welcome. I can just see like: Its 4am, you are in Kamenka, patient needs you in Berezino... No way u are getting there, So you can tell him to go to Med Tent #7 located at xxx-xxx and you still get credit for saving him/her. Or on those busy days on populated servers, you can re-load on supplies without getting chain sniped in Lektro. Just seems like a smart move... *side note* I wonder how long until Bandits open a HospiTOLL for blacklisted players. where you give them your best gear and they give you the meds/food u need...

Since no market has been established it would be awesome to know what you expect to get for the items listed. I am a medic and can provide tons of medical supplies. Im looking to get a Coyote pack or even an alice. I am also in need of Bison SD mags. What kind of stuff do you want for that kind of loot? EDIT FOR: I am also a chef. I can make a ton of cooked meat, if that is valuable to you.

Shoot Birds: Ok, I like it. Maybe get a 1/2 meat from it. like 400 blood... Not bad. Startling birds: I don't like that! Too hard to avoid. Rabbits: You can already shoot em, the burrows sounds too complicated to me Footprints: I don't see why not but they wouldn't last long and wouldnt really tell you anything. Drinking: YES! It is dumb that you can't cup your hand and drink from lake, pond, river. Fishing: I like it but who needs a pot, just jam a slice on the end of your knife and cook it on fire like a real man! lol. We have a left over slot in the tool belt too since radios arent in game. All in all good ideas, have some beans!

Cool. Thanks again for all the replies. I dont hate on play style at all. Thats what I love about this game. If you wanna snipe fresh spawns for lulz or get into srs pvp elsewhere or just live off the land... w/e I just wanna patch you up! ("you" being everyone)

Oh damn thats right... My bad. Well no harm in getting volenteers set up for when it works properly.

Medic Here Will be on duty as of 1pm GMT-8 (Pacific Daylight Time or 5.5 hours after this post) Steam ID: scrump1 (Currently out of Antibiotics, will make a hospital run when I log in)

Wow - Great answers so far and thanks to all that have chimed in. allow me to refine the details for this imaginary scenario. I am soon to be a white-listed medic. White-Listed medics are non-partisan. We only heal. We don't prefer to heal survivor or bandit or noob or sniper or clan or solo. We only aim to please. Most of us, will be rocking an alice, a shitty gun and a ton of med supplies. If I was on the way to a patient who needed medical attention and a bandit popped out and said he needed medical supplies I would gladly let him raid my pack. Not out of fear, but to help. Its like this. Medics want to increase EVERYONE's survi\val. Anyways. If you see me in game, Im here to help. RE: Sniping: Yeah, I was giving a blood xfuse on the roof of the Lektro hospital last night and got picked off from sniper hill - I saw the flash from the gun. Then Again I was ghillied with a CCO-SD and NVGs... From now on, ill have crap gear and a big bag. Being nice to medics in the field will make it easier for you to get help next time. Any geared bandit who lets me walk away will get prompt attention next time! Cheers Mates!

Don't blindly approach someone who is bleeding and try to help. Find people in the forums who are asking for help and go to them OR hide nearby and use direct chat - say "Hey im a medic, you're bleeding, I won't hurt you. Do you need help?" If someone who is bleeding kills u after that, they are a HUGE dick!

Then you have never met a Whitelisted Medic (I should be certified today sometime) We do not discriminate, only Medicate.

You can spawn in tons of inland locales now including Novy Sabor, Golgan(*sp) and the wilderness between Cherno and Lektro. I've heard of more but those are the ones I have seen.

As long as rocket doesn't dumb the game down I could give two fucks if he makes it an iPhone ap. When it goes stand alone it WILL be PC for sure, any other formats make no difference to me. He could make a god damn RISK style board game out of it for all I care. Again, as long as the PC version is not turned into your average MMO...

Damn rough! The ATV I had almost fixed got stolen or destroyed... So I have a Heli Rotor and a jerry can in my bag.... Anyone need em?
