Stupid moment

[lunchyyy 9]

Driving down the road at night with a UAZ at full speed without the lights on cause I thought I was being all tactical and shit.

Nek minnit.

Smash into another car and UAZ blows up.

No discussion value here. Just give me some sympathy.

2 ghillie suits, 1 m4a3 cco and many other useful things, I cross a railway on my ATV juuuuuuuuuuuuust a little bit too fast, ATV roll over, and explode.

I laughed at first, but then when I rejoined and started as a new gear less character, I cried a little.

The damage on vehicles really needs to be turned down. A collision shouldnt make a car explode like a Michael Bay movie. Hitting something at ~30 kmh and blowing up is ridiculous. Its especially bad when about every 10 feet of road in the game has shit littering it.

Well, i just died in a barn. 12K blood, no zeds, just fell over and died.

However there needs to be a model for the damage you take (if you're not strapped in to seatbelts even "low" speed collisions can throw you out of the vehicle).

30Mph is what, 50kmh, that's a *lot* of impact energy.

A long time ago at a science exhibit there was this "crash simulator" that simulated something like 10kmh crash to unyielding object (you were sitting in a car seat, strapped to normal seatbelts) and danm it hurt even at that speed (they had warnings that you could get bruised).

So explosions no, damage (a lot of it, and should you survive, broken bones and pain) yes.

I specified 30 KMH, which is like 20 MPH I believe but yes even at that speed I agree there should be a possiblity of blood loss, broken bones, shock, etc. However, my point is the car shouldnt outright EXPLODE. Its just annoying that vehicles are as hard to find as they are and are just begging to explode. Id prefer if the passengers in the car died instead of the car lol. Atleast you can respawn and make it back to the car and not wait a week for it to respawn.

I was hiding behind a goat and it moved, pressed me up against a tree and sent me flying into the air like 20 feet.

Hit the ground, died, and respawned where I died at, my body nowhere to be seen.

I killed the VooDoo goat.

The funny thing is, in the boot camp or w/e it's called, when you get taught to drive, they get you to do jumps off of ramps(same kind in dayz) and give you a ridiculously low time limit to complete the course. :)

Just yesterday lost everything to a stupid move..

Me and a friend saw a heli crash site just North of Stary Sober, instead of scouting the area we decided to leg it across, both got taken out by sniper's camping in the trees.

Lost NVG's, Coyote Backpack, Bison SD, DMR, GPS.

Oh well back to Cherno or Elektro to cause some riots :D

I've been killed every time I've gone to Stary. Needless to say, I don't go there anymore. Is over rated anyway.

I am usually in the general area however. One of these days I will camp the campers. :dodgy:

Did you gut it and loot its voodoo meat in hopes of gaining its voodoo powers when you ingested it?
