sostronk 334 Posted September 28, 2012 (edited) So being a badass, Im up over 40 murders/bandit kills on Vilayer servers on one life. Even got a few heroes. Looted myself a mountain dew. Drunk the coke to save the mountain dew. I head over towards the Lingors Airfield on the North West and spot myself a sniper and obvserver laying down camping the airfield only 10 metres apart. I take my time and slowly come up behind them. I kill the first one. Because my bandit skin reset when I joined the server I switch to the bandit skin right after killing the first guy, which delayed me from shooting the second guy and switched me to my pistol. The second guy, only being 10m away ran straight at me. I switch to primary and kill him, but he kills me too. It would have been like shooting fish in barrel if it had not been for the bandit skin switch. Even then I may have been alright if it hadn't switched me to my secondary. Was it the dew?

The Aquatic Land Walrus 565 Posted September 28, 2012 The..Dew...Fucking...Saved...My...Life...One time, i found a tent with 4 mtn dews. Drank all 4. About 20 mins later, i am walking to the red brick building in cherno, when a leroy enfield bandit jumps out. I had aggroed a zombie by sprinting, and he takes the easy shot. The zombie runs INTO THE BULLET, and it hits him in the face. I sprint around the side, and shove my winchester up his ass. Found 2 satchel charges on him. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

speca 193 Posted September 28, 2012 It is true, for me though it's no curse but more of a luck charm, at one point i was carrying five of them and i was rolling around on Lingor with my squad racking up the bandit kills/murders, nothing bad had happend to us!If you are cursed by the Mountain Dew, you must take one to Green Mountain and the curse will be gone from you for forever!I have said to much! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muncywolverine 236 Posted September 28, 2012 Found a dew today. Is it too late for me?No, it's not too late. In-game you'll notice your humanity going down, this is the dew's curse. Thou must bringth thy dew upon Green Mountain, once there thou must ascend thi tower, drinkth the dew, and send the curse back to the firey depths of hell from whence it came. ith. Your humanity lowering is the curse eating away at your mind. If you do not reach the mountain in time, you will become one of the infected. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kajin 25 Posted September 28, 2012 My buddy found a Mountain Dew once. Five minute later we happened across a bus with some pretty sweet military gear and a metric fuckton of medical supplies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lefroy Jenkins 32 Posted September 28, 2012 I found a Dew once. I'll never pick one up again. Found it in a cafe in Cherno. Hadn't seen hardly a zed at all to that point in my visit. within five minutes of picking it up, I got swarmed by about 25 zeds. I took out a few of them, had to use triple headshots on them. What kind of zeds take a TRIPLE headshot to kill? Even with a lousy Mak, it shouldn't take a triple. If I ever see a green can again, I'm not touching it. Unless it's 7-Up. I love that shit.

Elias (DayZ) 57 Posted September 28, 2012 What is it with you people, blaming the Mountain Dew for your 'bad fortune'? It's allmost like you want us to stay away from Mountain Dew... Why is that?I'll tell you, and it's not because I'm paranoid. Others have told me: "Elias, you're paranoid, that's why you know these things". And they are right, I know things, things that you need to know. But really; just because I'm 'paranoid' it doesn't mean there isn't a conspiracy to hide the truth behind Mountain Dew!Here is the truth: because I live alone in the forest I don't get distracted by human interactions. This gives me like a 'sixth sence' for the enviroment and all the things in it. And I have visions too, but that's beside the point here. Because of my knowledge of the 'world' I found out abouth the 'hidden' stats that define the amount of 'luck' that is allocated to a player when loot is spawning or when he's in a firefight etc. The number of cans of Mountain Dew you carry seem to be directly related to this hidden 'luck' factor. I explaned this many times before in other threads, I don't know why people don't understand this simple gamemechanic.That's why I always carry 19 Mountain Dews in my Alicepack and 9 Mountain Dews in my primary inventory. I strongly advise everybody to do the same; to carry 28 cans of Dew to max out your luckstats. And trust me, you do not need weapons for selfdefence with so many Dews in your inventory. Keep the fate and let the Dews do the work for you! It works for me! :-) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
root 48 Posted September 28, 2012 It wasn't caused by dew. It's just game mechanism which I don't like. The skin should change just when you log in, not during fire fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
