Prof. Awesome 3 Posted June 25, 2012 Aloha,is there a way to destroy barb wire? Those blockades start to show up everywhere and they suck! I play almost everytime on the same server and someone on it blocked the Door of one of the castles (north of cerno) that pretty much sucks, i mean, its there and no one can go in there anymore! Never!And if ppl keep doing this, earlier or later every second house is blocked with barb wire! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tabris07 159 Posted June 25, 2012 The barbed wire doesn't seem to stop the zombies either. They just walk through it; that saddens me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

optimate 4 Posted June 25, 2012 Try using the step over (default V) key to get over barbed wire. I've managed this a few times - may need more than one step over before you're through. It seems to help if you approach the wire square on and if there's plenty of space on the other side, at an angle or where there's not much room behind the wire never seems to work.

Bigtaff 23 Posted June 25, 2012 and fingers crossed something is done about it in an upcoming update. Its getting pointless to check some places since its so blocked off, starting to make playing kinda pointless when you're denied a fair chance at loot.

xenogias 0 Posted June 25, 2012 It can also kill you instantly when trying to get over it as I found out last night. Was my best survival run yet, had okay guns, food, water, ect. Was night and I figured I would scavenge for better guns or a rare drop. Tried to "V" over barb wire and died instantly. Was actually really pissed. Then I remembered it was alpha and it made alittle more sense than breaking my leg walking up a small hill on my 3rd or 4th life lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you can take them back down with a toolbox to cant you? which is much easier than trying to find that sniper lol.PS. Sniper idiot. No, you arent better than anyone else you really did just get lucky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miragexl 33 Posted June 25, 2012 Im trying hard switching servers and removing the wire from towns such as cherno and elektro to help the new survivors however there are too many servers; just keep looking for a toolbox then you are set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Officious (DayZ) 4 Posted June 25, 2012 I wish it was easier to by pass it, I was in the tower of the firehall out side of elektro, and then i logged back on later and the bottom of the stairs was wired. So i changed servers and that one was wired, then the 3rd server was wired on both sides of me!! Was both funny and frustrating hopping servers so I could get out.

Luckily, I log out in the woods. :) If someone manages to trap me with wire out there, I will truly be amazed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
venenozo@gmail.com 0 Posted June 25, 2012 cant believe you guys are crying about barb wire go get a toolbox and remove it.. there is nothing wrong with some fortifying his position to stay safe....jeez care bears everywhere..if you CANT GET PAST IT THEN MAYBE YOU SHOULDN'T GO FIND A TOOL BOX!

Black D. 0 Posted June 25, 2012 Tool boxes aren't exactly common, plus it's usually pretty buggy trying to remove wire. "Fortifying" one's position does nothing to deter zombies, and no one has a "position" that they maintain. Setting up wire is just trolling right now.

beavaroo 90 Posted June 26, 2012 Server US13 Dallas: Cow barn 1k East of Zelenogorsk.Some bright spark has wired off the doors to the NW alcove and set up tank traps INSIDE the room. That is one paranoid puppy!From what I could see, he did manage to trap himself a can of Pepsi so I guess it was worth it!If I ever find a satchel charge...

Alexey Zemanov 6 Posted June 26, 2012 pointless when you're denied a fair chance at loot.What? I don't get it. Why isn't that fair? If you want you can do that too.But as someone else said ... in most cases it's trolling. If you fortify your position i could ... not saying i would ... i could hop on another server get behind you and hop back onto the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Being a HC game doesnt mean "hey I will be as big of a dick as I can be for no real reason". I'm pretty sure Rocket would agree with me on this.pointless when you're denied a fair chance at loot.What? I don't get it. Why isn't that fair? If you want you can do that too.But as someone else said ... in most cases it's trolling. If you fortify your position i could ... not saying i would ... i could hop on another server get behind you and hop back onto the server.The game itself simply isnt fair. I wont argue if thats a good thing or bad. But this IS a game. When a game has random, rare loot its unfair. As unlikely as it is a person could put 100 hours into the game and never find a gun, or a toolbox, or a hunting knife, or a box of matches. How is that fair? Like I said, unlikely but it COULD happen and like I also said, I wont argue if thats good or bad. Being a HC zombie simulator it should be unfair imo within reason.
