SP45M 240 Posted January 13, 2014 Lol I was only reading the other day about the "Epic of Gilgamesh" and how the christian bible plagiarized it. Having considered reading it I found a copy in dayz only a few minutes after posting in this thread. Now sitting in a bush flicking through it. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hatesauce 99 Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) I dont get the point of books, not only does it create more world items/lag etc it takes up loot spots for potentially good items. I find more books than anything else - what purpose do these serve, if I wanted to read a book I would shut the game off and read one not sit in game with my head down waiting to get shot while I scan lines from Yates. EDIT: I suppose you could read while waiting for friends to arrive...but why are there so damn many? Edited January 23, 2014 by hatesauce 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matej (DayZ) 71 Posted January 23, 2014 They dont create lag , and what would you find inside houses beside normal loot? I think they will be more important in the future where you would require manuals to repair vehicles etc. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wild_man 4442 Posted January 23, 2014 I think books are great item for dayz first is simple pleasure of find :) maybe is book you love or book you hearing about example I read 75% of Darwin origin of the species :D(character was wipe before I finish >:() was excite to read in berezino house top floor ;) listen sometimes players doing shoots and zombie coming also I doing some pvp between chapter was like make natural selection happen same time I reading about :P when Is possible for stash loot I think some books will be value for collector :thumbsup: :rolleyes: if you don't like is cool also, ignore the books or maybe one day we can use to start fire on cold night :o 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
