Looking at Barbed Wire another way: Sniper prisons.
dunnobe replied to Never's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm pretty sure that "server hoppers block locations with barbed wire" thingy is bullocks. When you respawn, no items appear at that exact location. You need to go away and come back later for items to spawn on the place where you respawned. These items are only used to block entrances of buildings in order so people cannot get teh better equipment, atleast that is what I do. -

Try this! Head Tracking (FaceTrackNoIR)
dunnobe replied to manta-avoid's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Tried it months ago and it worked. Pretty cool when you're flying a helicopter or plane. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?100530-Update-FaceTrackNoIR Read through, it might help you getting it to work. -
The Second DayZ Survey|Final results| Over 700 participants
dunnobe replied to eel's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You need to stick to the same answer categories if you want to compare... unless you deliberately took different answer/categories. -
http://arma2.swec.se/game/statistics To put in statistics, about 1000-2000 players play arma 2 every day. This numbers has been about the same for months. So, barely any new people join or leave Arma 2 you could say. Pretty sure +90% of the people playing DayZ came from other games.

Bump. I do agree player killers need to be punish for their behaviour. Bringing back the bandit skin is a fantastic idea. BUT give the bandits the possibility to find lootable survivor/civilian clothing, so they can disguise themselves. I used to be a bandit myself. I was down to -36K for killing other people, but found it lame. I went back to -18K untill they took the bandit skins away. (And yeah I did still kill a few in that time.) Don't tell me it's impossible to become a survivor again, it's definately possible if you don't kill everyone on sight. So we have a mechanic that either punishes bandits for their behaviour (they get shot for being bandts) and give them a reason to be a bandit (some love the skin). Now we need a mechanic to promote being a survivor and or deter them from being one.

Straightforward Banditry Solution
dunnobe replied to DocSavage's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
By they you mean the bandits/deatchmatchers? I know they will oppose this, they're the only ones opposing this. We had the bandit skins and it was a good system IMO. I was a bandit yes, got -36K but managed to lowered it until -18K, so don't tell me it's impossible to be friendly. I only killed other bandits and try to let survivors go. People who ruin other people's fun need to be punished, it's that simple. I don't care if they call me a carebear, atleast I didn't buy this game to play DayZ and I try to post constructive ideas. -
Straightforward Banditry Solution
dunnobe replied to DocSavage's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Put the bandit skin back in, but put lootable civilian skins in so bandits can disguise themselves. People who ruin other people's pleasure, need to be marked (and shot for being assholes) -
Numpad Enter I'm ok with 1st person only. Played plenty of mods with 3rd turned of, you need to get used to it but it's big fun. 3rd person makes it too easy.

Which weapons have a choice of optics?
dunnobe replied to xBlackCat's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Nonsense, http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA_II_Hints_and_Tips#Sights "/" button on your numpad by default apparently. I bound it to one of my mouse buttons. By heart: M16 ACOG L85 ACOG (not in DayZ) L85 SUSAT (not in DayZ) ... (probably some variants of the G36, SA58 and SCAR as well) -
Somewhere in your options' date=' perhaps your controls... I can't tell you know as i'm not on my computer... It took me a long wall before I found it though :D If you can't find it, ask on the BIS forum topic in the link I gave. [hr'] Keep your eyes on the screen LOL. You can adjust the sensitivity of the movement, so bv. only turn your head a small bit and make a big movement ingame or the other way around. I've only tested it so I know it works fairly well. I don't have a webcam (used my dad's), so I can't use it. There's a shortcut as well that allows you to turn it on/off anytime you want. Very cool when you fly helicopters!!

Just buy the full game. Is 'saving' 10 EUR that important to you or are you just a cheapskate? You get better graphics anyway. Jeez I probably paid 60 to 100 EUR for all of my Arma 2 games and addons.

both thumbs up bro

Purchasing Arma for DayZ, Worth it?
dunnobe replied to Crooze's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Look at the number of players online; http://arma2.swec.se/server/list And there is more to Arma 2 than DayZ only. -
You are what is killing this game

Yeah you can switch between the sights on some weapons. M16 ACOG, L85 ACOG & SUSAT etc... but for the AK74 with the scope for example it doesn't work.

M107 Sniping competition in Cherno
dunnobe replied to Paddy1991's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Tell me, how did you get up the hotel in chenro without there being ladders and virtually impossible to land a helicopter there? 2 friends with an M107 as well, risking it into town? Very suspicious -
Frustrated of DayZ? Play ArmA 2!
dunnobe replied to shemashko's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You can filter for dao.nu valhalla. That PVP server was very popular (untill about 6-8 months ago, it seemed to have died a bit). You had to capture flags there and got money for it, also by killing enemies and destroying their vehicles. With the money you made, you were able to buy new gear and vehicles. kwhy; yeah that could be insurgency. Youtube for Project Reality mod insurgency, their gamemode is very fun, but there's also seperate insurgency missions that don't require a mod I believe. -

300 player servers ever possible?
dunnobe replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Without the saving & database system, you'ld probably have a lot more players. I've seen Arma 2 servers with 120 players filled up to the max and being played rather smoothly. -
Send it to BattleEye (in a day or 2, we need to tards to use them and be banned first)
