Now what if that person randomly turns around and spots you right as you walk away to let his precious life be saved, and then shoots you in the head? I shoot on sight, mainly to know that I will survive, and I rarely trust anybody.

Me and my friend actually built a base in the middle of Zelen, mainly to kill zombies. I ended up with 1100 zombie kills, him with 1000, quiet fun to be honest.

I VERY rarely encounter snipers that can hit at all. As preferred earlier, if you don't want to be sniped, don't go to sniper's nest. In a real apocalypse, I would easily snipe anyone I see if I find them being a possible danger, oh well, maybe because I have problems trusting people overall. Making snipers inaccurate at long range takes a lot of the danger out of the game. It would be really boring to sit with a couple of binocs in a bush, scouting out a city to find out there are no zombies down there, for then to run down and don't worry about anything because apparently the snipers got bad accuracy. Beside, bullet drop makes it hard to hit moving targets at a decent range anyways, unless those moving targets are crawling.

We are playing on a couple of hundred miles sized map, and you want to limit weapons to "short-to-medium" range? Joking?

You deserve beans.

Did I say every single one? No, I didn't. I simply said that it should be a CHANCE to find a working GPS in vehicles, because, as you know, many vehicles have GPS'.

All I've found on the last 20 crash sites (I play on a minor populated private server) is minimum 2 FN FALs or 2 Bizons on one crash site. I was lucky on one of them and found camo clothes, L85 and as50, but other than that it's all about the FAL and Bizon.

I've found legit NVGs twice, but I do agree, either increase the rarity or remove them completely. I find it really stupid how GPS, which in reality can be found in most cars, are more common than NVGs. You should be able to search trough broken cars in chance of finding a working GPS.

Cheesecaek pls.

I'd much rather call everyone that insult the poster a fucking retard. Thing about more than one thing before blaming him for hacks.

This could be a private server and they are the owners.

Hello, everyone. I am here to suggest that you should check out "Galdis and Shadow Dash private server". I have been playing there for a while now, and it's a lot better than any other server I've played. The reason I've resorted to the forums is because the server have lost many people since the school and job start, and we're looking for more members. The server is ran from America, I live in Norway and it's perfectly fine for me to play without any lag and very little de-sync. The server is great, it got an own store where you can buy and sell items, vehicles, etc. It's not too difficult finding a vehicle to have here, and you'll meet some contestants along the way. Shadow Dash is currently working on a huge update, and if he pulls it off then it will be awesome. I hope to see all of you in-game soon, and if you do join, fetch me a "Hi". I go by the name of Morgan. Thanks.

Lack of information, I was in a rush yesterday, my excuses. The server Arma version is 96016. Tents and vehicles save perfectly fine on this server, and I've yet not had a single problem with losing a tent or vehicle. As Galdis posted, contact either him or Shadow Dash on steam to find out more about this server. The store works this way: Every item, equipment, vehicle, etc got its own value, and you can trade it in to a "store" to get credits for them. With the credits you get, you can buy other items, equipment, vehicles, you name it. Also, just because it's a private server it doesn't mean we have no bandits. Don't go around and trust everybody, and don't be afraid to be a bandit. If you're new to the server, or new to DayZ overall, then feel free to contact me either on here just catch me in-game, I'll try my best to push you in the right direction. If you still do have questions or problems, contact Galdis or Shadow Dash, I'll also be happy to help with what I am able to help with.

Try downloading DayZ commander and launching trough there. If that doesn't work, find the "updates" tab in the program and update all of it to see if everything is up-to-date.

I would listen to him, I mean, if you have nothing to lose, then maybe he was playing games with you to see if you would pay attention. Who knows, maybe if you laid down on the floor, he would give you his delicious My Little Pony-rocket launcher?

Spawning without a gun in this mod is the least of your problems. It is piss easy to find something to survive with, I mean, the zombies are so stupid that you don't even need a gun to survive against them.

Isn't Alice Backpacks supposed to be a tad rare, or at least not 'easily' found, considering it's the biggest backpack (I think?) in the game? I just found three in the same General Store. Too bad I have no use for more than one, which I had from before.

You, my friend, you're lucky..

So, here you can share your perfect stories of how you found, repaired or acquired in any way, your first vehicle, and drove it to victory. Here goes mine: I was walking by the mountains overwatching the docks, just for the sake of it, while looking for something interesting. Scouting out a town with docks for boats, I expected to see at least something, and so I did. I spotted out two boats, and slowly progressed down towards them. Hitting the deck beside them, I wanted to look badass, so I chose the boat without a roof and bullets it in. Driving off like a boss, I found it going really slow, then I figured out why: I had stranded it at a rock. Making my way back to the docks to get the other, lame boat, with roof and stuff, I drove it far away from land. I drove for minutes, and had to stop on a further-ahead dock to refuel the boat. I then made my way even further north and parked it I have officially driven the slowest vehicle in DayZ.

Great story! I know how it is to be legging around with a black-white screen outblurred at max, kind of a good feeling, actually.

Great stories, guys! Hopefully I soon find a vehicle with wheels too. I've sat in a total of 4 different vehicles, all of them completely broken with no fuel :<

Lucky day, sir, lucky day.

Please tell me that the server isn't far from Europe, so I can play on a good server!

Honestly, I would much rather want them to continue fixing the standalone, and make it as bug-free as possible, and make us survive with this version, than having a fully bugged and unplayable released game. I do really hope that they give us the game for free if we have arma 2: CO tho, since we have to survive with this buggy mod.

I agree with above posts. To get more use of the vest pouches/packs, wouldn't it be a possibility to have one of those in addition to a backpack? It could, for example, expand the main inventory (where you keep your ammo/food most of the time).
