My wife's take on DayZ
Matchstick556 replied to DevilDog (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Ravioli would be considered canned pasta. I'm curious why it's pasta.... of all the things that come in a can. -
My wife's take on DayZ
Matchstick556 replied to DevilDog (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My wife just rolls her eyes. Especially after she asks what I want for dinner and I tell her I'm not hungry because I just had a can of pasta and a Coke. -
I could do without the trophies, but it's not a bad idea. You could make it where if your humanity falls below 0 you have a limited time to seek "forgiveness" at a nearby church to prevent becoming a bandit. This would help people that have had to kill in defense but it ended up being considered a murder by the game.The animation could last for a few seconds (like eating, drinking, etc). This makes for a risky situation in that one would be vulnerable while praying. Churches would then be another hotspot for PvP like grocery stores and firestations. For the rest of you anti-religion people, this would not be forcing any religion on a person. Your character could be praying to a marinated steak for all anyone cares. If you get bent out of shape because of a "church" and "praying" which wouldn't even be mandatory, then you need to calm down and have some dip. As it is truly said, there are no atheists in war.

The Bandit Headscarf is too much for me
Matchstick556 replied to Sula's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My game glitches my skin. I start out with a bandit skin regardless of my humanity then it will switch back to survivor in about 15-20 minutes. This happens everytime I join a server, not just a new spawn. -
Stop saying "friendly" and immediately trusting me
Matchstick556 replied to Obsolescence's topic in New Player Discussion
I wear a bandit skin, but I don't shoot survivors without attempting to establish a friendly communication. If they are a potential threat and ignore my communication attempts, I kill them. But what I mainly do is overwatch Cherno and Elektro for the new spawns. Not to shoot them, but help them get a foot hold. An evil angel, some may call it. Sometimes if I see a new spawn in a jam with zombies, I'll help clear a path for him/her. I'll watch other players and if a survivor is shooting new spawns or other survivors for no reason, I put them down. Just last night I saw an unarmed survivor run into the firehouse scavenging. Another survivor with an AK ran up behind him and started shooting. I put a bullet in the back of his head. The unarmed survivor patched himself up, looted the other guy's gear and immediately left town. -

What the hell does this even mean? -
Blowing that stuff up is good, but it happens all the time. Yeah, they probably duped most of those items and loaded the trucks up. Perhaps they were injecting. Either way, and don't take this offensively, but I think everyone is just getting tired of hearing about hackers. Considering we all have to deal with them, it's part of the game at this point and there's not much we can do about them. If you knew of a way to prevent them, then we'd all have open ears.

Will this computer run it? Please help
Matchstick556 replied to The Friendly Bandit's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I believe you asked this question already. As I said before, Game Debate says you'll be able to run it, but your video card will be lower end. Be prepared to upgrade your GPU. If possible, spend a little more on a different GPU and get a nicer one. You'll be glad you did. -
According to Game Debate, your PC should be able to run it. However, your GPU is a bit low so don't expect good graphics. http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=4843&game=DayZ&p_make=AMD&p_deriv=Llano+Lynx+A6-3670K+Quad+Core&gc_make=ATI&gc_deriv=Radeon+HD+6530D&ram=8&checkSubmit=

Why not remove the glitchy dead guys until the standalone?
Matchstick556 replied to M8EO's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I usually toggle the V-Sync option in "Video Options" and that will remove the glitching over 50% of the time. -
It'll be better than medium settings. I run a similar system and can run high graphics easily with good FPS.

People who murder bandits =/= heroes
Matchstick556 replied to Ozelot (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You're comparing apples to oranges here. You can't compare a game to real life. For example, Day Z has no justice system. There is barely any fear as the player because you just respawn if you die, unlike real life. People "who want to climb to the top of a tower and execute complete strangers, without motive, from 800m" do it out of boredom, challenge or just because they want to be a d!ck. It has nothing to do with morality. I kill most people in Day Z because I'm tired of getting killed. Unless we can form a truce early enough, I will kill them to survive. I own multiple weapons in real life but I would never consider killing innocent people. "Given how many people that play in this style, I am quite glad that I live in a country with no 'right to bare arms' (although I don't see why wearing a T-shirt gives someone the right to own 60 guns). " ... and I'm quite glad you don't live in the United States. -

Don't forget to kill the surrounding zombies and loot them. They usually have a good amount of ammo on them for high powered weapons. -
Military-type survivor looking for a team
Matchstick556 replied to Yliparoni's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I would also like to be apart of a team that is serious, yet fun, about gaming in Day Z. I am also experienced in conventional military tactics and guerilla warfare. I'd like to play with a few people that can understand the same tactics and employ them within the game. I prefer stealth and accuracy and don't attack other players without good reason. Skype is: b.ridenour Steam: matchstick556 -
New player, help with performance settings please.
Matchstick556 replied to escrook's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
According to GameDebate, your system should be enough to run the game. http://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=4843&game=DayZ&p_make=AMD&p_deriv=Fusion+A6-3400M+Quad+Core&gc_make=ATI&gc_deriv=Radeon+HD+7670M&ram=4&checkSubmit= I suggest disabling the crossfire. I wouldn't suggest using crossfire for graphic cards that are so different.
