You know you've played too much Day Z when...

[boxman80 964]

...

- You dont walk along pavements/sidewalks anymore and tend to stick to the shrubary instead

- You avoid stangers when outside

- You start stock piling beans

- You decide your school/work/gym backpack isnt big enough and you go to the shops to buy an ALICE backpack with more "slots".

- You hate the sight of empty tin cans!

- You stop turning on the lights in your house on a night for fear of attracting bandits.

- You start to carry too many cans of soda in your backpack everytime you go out

- You try to fill your water canteen up every time you go to the bathroom

- You avoid long grass for fear of "crawlers"

- You ditch the flares in your boat for "safer" chemlights.

- You find yourself rifling through the tent display at Go Out Doors looking for loot.

- You start to crouch an awful lot more.

- You try to repair your car with scrap metal

Add your own.....

When you go camping you steal your neighbors beanZ and replace them with road flares ô┬ô

[Suicide Mouse 50]

You keeping sneaking around and when you suddenly face another person you scream repeatedly "FRIENDLY? FIRENDLY?? FIRENDLY!"

[pack.wolf 0]

Every time before climbing a latter you make sure you are holding something that requires two hands.

[pengs 8]

Your walking in the woods and try to use the right mouse button to zoom in on a bird.

[Stick32 0]

you nearly jump out of your chair everytime there is a loud sound.... whether your playing or not.

[mrsmiley 1]

When you see people walking outside in the rain and call them noobs.

[blockhead (DayZ) 4]

you can see the words "waiting for server response" everywhere you look, as the words have been burned into your retinas

[Leechman 8]

You hear a helicopter overhead and your first thought is to go prone behind a bush.

[blockhead (DayZ) 4]

you start judging height not in units of distance, but in likelihood of breaking bones or not :P

[OUT FOX EM 22]

Funny that you made this thread. I actually was going to make it myself.

True story:

When walking down the road today, I saw a small pile of trash and my first thought was "I wonder what loot is in there?"

During the same walk, I heard someone walking behind me, and my initial instinct was to "press Alt to look behind". I kid you not.

Also, when playing another game (APB), I saw some people running toward me and immediately thought "Shit! The Zed!"

I've definitely been playing this too much.

[zorg_dk 30]

ahahaha, all good ones.

- when i hear church bells i think of cherno or elektro.

[daedrick 90]

When I see a radio tower in the distance, I want to go check it for loot.

When I go somewhere with my car, I hide it under some trees instead of parking it in the parking lot.

When I see other people tent, I go loot them.

When I pack my bag, I make sure I have firewood in it.

When I go to the hospital, I shoot the windows off to enter the building instead of using the door.

Everytime I see a ladder, I think to myself that could it could be a nice sniping spot.

When there is a crowd somewhere, I suddently drop to the ground and crawl in between people.

When there is a lone car parked, I try to enter it, since it never work I tell to myself it must be a wreck.

*Sniff*

Nobody posted this much up on my identical thread started yesterday morning....

http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=5997

I guess that's the problem with the success of the mod - and by definition thereof - this forum... topics get buried pages back very quickly....

Any chance a mod can merge?

[daedrick 90]

If I break my leg i will get on my feet in no time because I always carry morphine.

I always scout a villages/city with my binoculars before entering it.

I was thirsty, so I drank salt water.

Im not afraid of death, because I know I will go to the beach if I die.

When I want to help somebody, I point my gun to their face while trying to get the action menu to pop.

Everytime I do an action, I accidently fire my gun.

Whenever I can't see in the dark, I look for the gamma option.

If Im holding a flashlight, I can't hold anything else.

I eat my beans directly from the can, without a can openner.

I try to make a fire, without firewood, and wonder why it doesn't work.

If someone ask me where there is a good place to meet people, I tell them to go to cherno.

If someone wear a scarf on their face, I shoot them on sight.

I never go in garages, because I know there is nothing useful there.

[fecesreturns 6]

Here on my Army base I am at we have deer stands like in the game. Whenever I drive or walk by one I always look in the top to see if there is anything in there.

[Evilsausage 87]

Everytime i go out at night i worry that i will have to light flares. But luckily i don't need to since its never as dark outside as it is in DayZ.

I try to keep a distance from walls and especially doors, since i know Zombies can hit/walk through them.

[boxman80 964]

lol some good ones, keep them up!

[davidcastle 19]

When you've player 117 hours of Dayz in a week and a half...

[ippikiki 13]

When you get cold, you immediately think to start a fire and warm-up.

[-Sin- 5]

- When you go camping and refuse to use the wood readily available. You insist upon going into nearby towns and villages for it.

- When you start to only recognize Coke, Pepsi, and Mountain Dew as acceptable drinks.

- When you're afraid of going to sleep because you are afraid when you wake up you'll be almost dead from starvation, thirst, or both.

- When you don't wanna swim anymore because you're afraid you'll lose something during the swim.

- When you start to compare the actual night outside to if this is Day Z dark.

[PeteOfButcherBay 17]

When you log in and realize that you have done it all currently and the only thing left is to kill noobs at cherno/electro.

:D

[Tegla (DayZ) 112]

[vodkaowl 1]

When the only fun way to kill players anymore is to bait zombies to them with tin-cans.
