LoveAffair 329 Posted June 3, 2015 I think I will try to live off the land starting only with a stone knife.Not sure if that's going to work as I don't know how to make my first kill to get the "rope" for a bow.Maybe I need a stone knife and a rope to get started.Everything else can be crafted and improvised now. At least for hunting and cooking.Mabey you can kill a slow chiKon with the stone knife then use his guts for rope :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
too-easy 56 Posted June 3, 2015 Mabey you can kill a slow chiKon with the stone knife then use his guts for rope :)I guess chicken only have a small pile of guts.A while back I caught a rabbit with a trap and it had a small pile of guts which couldn't be used to craft a bow.But maybe they changed that. Or maybe you can combine two small piles to get a big one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then use fishie guts. Edited June 3, 2015 by LoveAffair Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The-MCV- 149 Posted June 3, 2015 I think I will come back for some DayZ. Been out for 2-3 months because I've waited for some more content. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xalienax 621 Posted June 3, 2015 Sound interesting, but im still waiting for major improvements in game play and the ability to focus on more long term goals. Before i can really get back into SA i'll need to see- - Zombie pathing/collision truly fixed.- Hit detection and desynch (netcode) addressed and resolved. No more phantom hits from things that clearly should have missed. (even if client connection standards must be tightened on official servers to ensure quality)- building/barricading in and working with a degree of reliability- Global loot actually working as intended across the public hive.- Persistence and persistent storage actually being reliable.- Stamina that actually makes sense and scales with load/exertion/time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Julianwop (DayZ) 14 Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) I guess you could try poking a cow to death with the ashwood/long stick, but I haven't tried it personally.I punched a cow to death earlier this morning, chased it through some fields until it finally got stuck in a bush/fence cluster. I felt kind of dirty afterwards. Also, serverside performance seems to be alot better, even with zombies. Which is good news.

Mean Gun Morris 102 Posted June 3, 2015 You can one hit kill fully geared players too. Stick and apple combo is op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

emuthreat 2837 Posted June 4, 2015 I guess chicken only have a small pile of guts.A while back I caught a rabbit with a trap and it had a small pile of guts which couldn't be used to craft a bow.But maybe they changed that. Or maybe you can combine two small piles to get a big one.That would explain it. I only kill chickens, incidentally. They are so easy to run up on, I'm a bit disappointed that their guts won't string a bow. Might have to make an odd request of a butcher for proof of concept. I haven't had time to check out the new exp update. Is it getting any closer to a stable candidate yet? I'd really like to set up a camp again someday...

hombrecz 832 Posted June 5, 2015 I go outside..its summer and time wasted in front of Monitors instead is..ah wait screw this..gonna Play a bit :D Come on man, who would venture outside in this god damned heat?I'm starting to envy folks in Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway) with their summers, where temperatures are around 20 C (in southern parts).

emuthreat 2837 Posted June 8, 2015 Come on man, who would venture outside in this god damned heat?I'm starting to envy folks in Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway) with their summers, where temperatures are around 20 C (in southern parts).It's not just Europe that is unseasonably warm. West coast US is getting it too. Latitude 41 is getting over 30 C. It's too early for this kind of heat, we're gonna completely miss out on the "nice"days that early summer usually offers. I hope my poor tomato and pepper plants don't get burnt while I'm away at work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

emuthreat 2837 Posted June 8, 2015 I don't know if it is tomorrow. (I assume you are asking about the push to stable with .57) I jumped the gun with this thread last night because it seemed like servers went down early. I'll go play here in a bit after dinner; see if inventory bugs (items disappearing when traded or crafted, which should fall on ground) Short of those being fixed, I'll just hope to see it on wednesday. Last time I checked, things were looking okay. But I won't get my hopes up again. That BattleEye ticker warning of the wipe has been crying wolf for weeks now...
