Well you know, they just think differently to me and you :P

Yes I would like to see more melee weapons and less ammunition in places like schools and churches and other places it shouldn't be.

Don't get me wrong, I completely agree, it's just a few people on here seem to want a gun and three mags in every building. I was just curious what the general consensus was!

Basically the same as the mod but I'm going to really try and play carefully. Probably go to a small town to start off to stock up on food and supplies then move to somewhere that I can find a weapon for self defence. As long as I can get enough supplies to travel, I'm fine.

I'm not sure so don't quote me on it, but Dean said at rezzed that they have abandoned the '50,000 access key' thing and are just letting everyone buy in to it!

I will only KOS in the standalone against people that look particularly dodgy/ act aggressively. Mostly I stay out of peoples' way or help them if they seem friendly. I will be both killing and helping.

Input: Timer, Explosive, Road Flare, Battery Output: a bomb that zombies are attracted too Tools: Tape, String, multitool Fail chance: 6% (due to uses and possible rarity of materials) Basically a time-bomb that has a flare that ignites on application. Zombies are attracted to it!

Input: shotgun shell + wire/string Output: shotgun shell alarm Tools: Tape Fail Chance: 10% A shotgun shell that is linked to a tripwire. only deals a slight amount of damage, but more as a very loud alarm!

No he said a week window... He didn't mean he was releasing it in a week, more like he has a set week/five days he wants to release it. However they're not revealing it because of the december fiasco/delay.

No Dean said they won't be anymore! I think at rezzed!

[removedimage] not sure how legit all this is, but I'm interested, look at what I highlighted; Could this be to do with the initial thing where they were going to let a certain amount of keys out at a time?

Looking at some of the tabs on 'packages' on that page, it's probably just a placeholder/section reserved for when it releases. it has 'bohemia interactive - last updated 6 months ago' however it also says the last update to that page was four hours ago and there's been regular updates all through the time that's been open [imageremoved]

Did you just find that on Steam?

I've been patiently waiting and I've recently got back in to DayZ again. I'm really looking forward to playing the SA. I'm looking forward to the new animations and hopefully a more fluid and better performanced (I know it's not a word :P) experience.

I was just playing DayZ Origins and I've never been on it before. Basically I acquired some loot, an Alice pack and a car wheel. Anyway as it gets to night time I had just come past a huge power plant and I was scavenging for more loot. In the distance just by chance I see a helicopter landing in a field. I crawled all the way up to it without being seen, at least I don't think he saw me, and I started to loot his helicopter while he was in it. I took a load of magazines, blueprints and medical stuff. Anyway I had the funny idea of jumping in with him. He kind of hovered for a while and then he finally realised 10 minutes later that I had hitched a ride with him and he shot me. We both found it hilarious but I'm kinda sad I didn't just run with the stuff!. I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but oh well...

I'm guessing it will be released towards the middle-end of July

I haven't played DayZ in a long time due to a couple of things that really bug me. I'm hoping they will be fixed but I haven't got much hope. The first problem is the zombies. To say this game is a zombie game, they don't seem to be the focus of development. They're buggy and they run like olympic sprinters as soon as they see. I also hate their animations, they seem really jerky. The next thing is Frame rate. Everything is fine in this regard till I hit Cherno and sometimes Elecktro. Low frame rate dips ruin the game because I can't get to any major cities and sneak round the zeds. Now my machine is kinda medium-low but I can run other games on medium-high, however I know DayZ takes a lot of calculations so I can see why I have to lower my settings. Have any of these things been discussed?

Ok thanks haha I tested a low pop server the other day on taviana and it was ok performance wise, so maybe it's the population. I'll try later :)

PM sent

Also to add, I never ever raid cherno and if I do, it's just the apartment blocks on the edge of the town. I can't bear to get in to that cluster-fuck of a place haha

When I first spawn I charge to Elecktro, raid the super market, raid the firestation and follow the road north. Spend as little time as possible there.

first time on your server since you changed to tavianna and I was shot within 5 min hahaha. I enjoy your server but Tavi is just too laggy for me. I may check in if you ever go back to cherno

I was curious if anyone else leaves map markers? I tend to use them a lot if I found something good I can't carry. For example just now, north of novy sobor, I found a downed helicopter site. Upon searching I found a PP-19. FN Fal and an M14 aimpoint + assorted medicine. Now there's no way I could carry all that so I swapped out the AK74 and 6 mags for the M14 + 3 mags on the floor + ( and thank god I'd been carrying around those 4 DMR mags all game). Afterwards I left a map marker stating the loot and obviously the location. I was curious if anyone else did the same?

Just been killed by hackers and this is the last straw, I'm sick to death of it. Does anyone play exclusively on private hives? is there less hacking or is there more admin abuse?
