Hetstaine 10852 Posted October 11, 2013 What about the most common thing in Dayz that is overlooked, a main feature that is just there..part of the whole experience ? Yes. You should know what it is. Take a look at this pic. what does one see ? Looking towards Stary, behind you and to your left is Vybor. No heli wrecks, no survivors, no animals. What dominates this landscape ? Correct, the trees. The beautiful trees. Does anyone care for or appreciate these trees ? When we finally find one that allows us to partake of its wood so we can cook our goat leg, are we not relieved ? Hiding beneath one and feverishly bandaging whilst our assailant searches so he can administer the lethal shot, do we not say thanks ? Using the a trunk as cover whilst we spy on someone from afar, knowing we are invisible to them.. The trees that take us under their bosom and become our mother in this wretched land, a moment away from all of the insta death..who has not looked up and appreciated the fine canopies and spread branches ? Lets. I know... you don't even need to say it, i can sense your sigh of approval at such majesty and realise the relaxing of your muscles as you gaze up into this splendid canopy..the wind slowly pushing it leaves, the well anchored trunk supporting creaking heaving limbs as it watches over us going about our futile human lives. Old stripey. No good for wood, hopeless for cover, just a part of the landscape ? No. A singularly beautiful wonder that says..don't eat my bark ..i am poisonous..just appreciate me. and appreciate it we should. Springing to life with colours that say to the bugs..live in me ..i am your home away from home. ..and of course the majestic pines, which without we would not have our wonderful forests, annoyingly dialed down for those who do not see the land in all of its glory, a constant battler against our hatchets as we search for wood like the neanderthals once did to cook their freshly slain kills. Always swishing and moaning in the wind, a comfort at night but reminiscent of every Friday the 13th movie we saw as a child.. Trees. Hatchet them, hide in them..but love them. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

philbottle 430 Posted October 11, 2013 I took my girlfriend to Epping Forest a couple of Sundays ago (no, not to murder her and bury her in a shallow grave). We were mushroom (of the non magic variety unfortunately) picking with a couple of lads from Bilbao (Baques love their mushrooms apparently). Don't get the chance to leave London often but we're lucky to be blessed with an abundance of parks and trees in this city. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rossums 2190 Posted October 11, 2013 The trees can all disappear for all I care.I finally think we're getting close to each other, give the tree a little love tap and OH MY GOD MY WHEELS ARE BROKEN and they just stare... they just stare and do nothing. Bastards. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cap'n (DayZ) 1827 Posted October 12, 2013 ArmA has some of the highest quality trees of any game. I can't see many games matching the sheer quality, fidelity, detail, or beauty of it's shrubbery. My favorite are the skinny pine trees with the funny tops(not the yellow ones), that are somewhat rarer. I see a lot near Skalka, Zelenogorsk, and around Stary and Krasnostov. Also what is the purple grass I find up North near Vybor and Skalka? I wish there was more of it, it looks cool. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
