ZomboWTF 527 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) I think you will drown before you reach it, but maybe driving + swimming there would work? it's 16km out afaikmight just as well fly there in Arma 2, it's the same island...

Just Caused 423 Posted January 21, 2016 I know you can drive as submarines, what about driving to Debug Island ? I dont mind to give a try and sacrifice my Lada . Are you that desperate and miserable to hide your car? You really can't find good place to hide it in 225 square kilometers map? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GordonFreemanTR (DayZ) 18 Posted January 21, 2016 Persistance is not working on debug, so cant hide it there :) Just want to get there, spent some time and drink some alcohol tincture looking at the sunset. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

S3V3N 1402 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) I don't think you can even drive cars under water any more, since they won't start up. I found a Sedan near Skalisty Island in shallow water once, couldn't start it, replaced sparkplug and battery with pristine ones and they instantly got ruined again. Despite the fact you can drive them with ruined stuff above water, the Sedan wouldn't start up. You're welcome to try it out yourself, but I don't think the cars can submarine any more. Also, from what I've read the terrain near Debug Island makes it impossible to drive up there. Edited January 21, 2016 by S3V3N Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Follow in the footsteps of the great: but I think it's never been done in a ground vhicle so this could be a DayZ First ?you might find some useful advice from this great classic account https://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/201494-journey-to-schadenfreude-island/#entry2026445 Swimming on the surface he notes the ocean floor <<at the deepest point it reaches a depth of 182 meters (597 feet), which is about 6 Devil's Castles or 3-2/3 Cherno sniper towers. If the water suddenly disappeared it would take over 6-1/2 seconds to hit the seafloor>> - you'll need good navigation? some way of keeping warm? food? Go for it.. if you never come back you'll be remembered forever as a hero. xx Edited January 21, 2016 by pilgrim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

q.S Sachiel 470 Posted January 21, 2016 funny though how even having maybe 1/5 that tincture makes you quite ill (or did last time i died from poisoning...)it will be a great drink i'm sure, at the edge of the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tactical Nuke 47 Posted January 21, 2016 Cars (from my experience) wont drive under water. I had a Lada down by Elektro, took shots and decided I'd evade by submerging myself whilst doubling back on them - car cut out after a minute or two and wouldn't start up again. Car wasn't even fully submerged when it gave up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-Gews- 7443 Posted January 22, 2016 I tried it with V3S. Didn't work for me because you can't see where you're going, you can't access your compass, the sea floor has bumps and mountains that change your direction, and also the truck fell through the map after a few minutes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm totally impressed - a Gews motorized expedition!Truly- he stops at nothing, he is the Scott and Amundsen of Chernarus Perhaps there is a sea-floor continuous land-link from the mainland to the island, somewhere?I have heard the debug plains have at least one bottomless hole in them. Also - at those depths I guess you couldn't see a swimmer on the surface guiding you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
