Has anyone one seen this other than me? I seem to think it's one of the best zombie games to come out as of yet. Unfortunately, you have to download Arma 1 and Arma 2 before you can install the mod, but the actual mod itself is free.
Like some input on everyone's thoughts on Day Z mod. Thanks!
<S>
-
Yes and not in to the zombie thing, Zombies is becoming a dead horse, Zombies? blah move on.
-
Hadn't seen it, looks like fun, thanks Bosco :)
-
Friend mentioned it to me yesterday. I'll probably play it after i play a bit of arma 2. Downloaded the whole set last night. Yet to actually download the dayz mod though.
looks like fun :)

Been talking about it in this thread.

Difficult to begin with. No situational awareness will lead to you getting smoked. Perma-death. Hard to get used to but a lot of fun when you team up. Going solo is NOT recommended.

Nice. We've got a troop transport (5 ton) ready to go except we need a tire and...we lost our tool box....and can't find another one for the life of us. Found a tire and finally got rid of it because we couldn't find a tool box.
-
OH and I lost my M4 today. Was helping a friend out and i clicked it in my inventory to move it to my pack/vice versa and it vanished. Gone. Poof.
We're at the NW airfield in the ATC tower right now (trying to get me another M4). A sniper showed up and picked off one of our guys who had a backpack glitch. He sat near the window trying to pick his pack up and then BAM. As it sits, I have an AK Kobra. Yuck.
He says he's done until it's out of Alpha. So, we're down to 5 members. How many are in your crew coombz? I see three on most of your vids.
Oh and we got two tents.
----
Coombz - if your guys ever want to team up, let me know.
Right now there are three of us that play solid. The other two are trying to balance school and the game.
----
EDIT: I'm kind of happy that particular person decided to stop. He's a "Go in and kill all zombies" type...and then wonders why we all end up with more ammo than him...
And he doesn't quite have the "stay low and quiet" thing down yet... He likes to crouch run or sprint wherever he goes.
I feel bad saying it, but he was a hazard to the team.
-
you don't need toolboxes anymore (which is why they don't spawn anymore and you couldn't find one) just get a tire and you'll be good to go :D
also the two barracks areas in the airfield will give you better chances at the m4 (fire station and hangars also) than the control tower - good luck, hope you get one!
we tend to have at least 5 in our group and sometimes 6 or 7 (potentially even more if everyone is online at once) which gets a bit hard to manage. we don't really have any trigger happy, gung ho types (except me perhaps :) ), but we do have one guy who seems to continually lose sight of the rest of the crew, and spends 10 minutes at a time messing with his gear every time he loots something...but he has only been playing a few days, rather than weeks like most of us, so I guess he'll get there eventually
edit: teaming up sometime sounds good except for the aforementioned communication issues when a lot of people are grouped up...could get a bit confusing. perhaps just for one night of mayhem in Elektro it could be good though :x get a nice big group, set up with good fields of fire and mutual cover around the outskirts of the city (supermarket, firestation/powerstation/church/school) and raise hell for as long as we can ;D
PM me if you ever want to do something of the sort and I'll give you the info to our mumble server

Haha! Yeah, I remember spending forever with gear when I first started. Wanted to make sure everything was good to go.
And WOW! Do I feel dumb. >.<
Time to go find another tire. :o :joystick:
We hit the SW part of the field first since we came in from there. That's where I picked up the AK (Off of a dead player), we looted everything good there and had to log due to lag - went to another server, and headed for the hangars. We were lucky. Not many zombies that day. Instead of having to crawl around, we were able to take out the 1 or 2 zombies that would show up. The hangars were a bust so we went to the ATC because there were three dead players there. When we decided to go to the fire station is when it got hairy. Pack got stuck and then we heard shots, our friend went to get down and suddenly the poor guy is bleeding from a giant hole in his face lol.

Heheheehh That was Tango78 and myself (TWICE, because I had a map, axe , Xtra water bottle & more rounds for the pistol...) & I was damned if someone was going to get the loot I had found.... so I went back & got killed again..... :furious
Found it hard to run backwards around the little space between the Glass & Railings, shooting the "Z"'s. Ended up running outta rounds again..... and (http://www.sherv.net/cm/emo/sad/depressed.gif)
I must have seen 40-50 dead bodies just south of the Airfield ( Balota) at the Medical tents... South of the Airfield, South of the road..... Ready for picking 'em over.... just too many "Z"s to even get close enuff to look though..... need about 4-5 Squaddies to go thru that place... I'll bet there's a crap load of Loot there.
What a day waster DAYZ can be huh...?

Haha yeah! Still fun though. My buddy got killed by someone who spawned in behind him, so I went and killed the guy with my last M4 mag, but bled out. As I was dying, I let him know that was for killing my friend haha! I had forgotten to put it on auto. D'OH!
The only thing I regret losing was the GPS. I can find the other stuff easy enough.

I just started the other day. Wandering around with no map sucks :cry

Location: NW Airfield - barracks at the NW end of the field (past the ATC) - second room after the bathroom
I would have LOVED to get it but I'd have to drop my M4 right now (pack is full :( :( :( ) I'm a huge M14 nut.

2 Hospitals in cherno but you need another player to give you a transfusion.
Yesterday I went there with a couple friends. One of my buddies drew agro on 10 or so zombies so we ran out away from cherno and started to kill them. I shot one close to him missed and hit him in the face got one murder from it :lol

I liked the Lee as well...but it's loud....very loud....and attracts a LOT of zombies. You'd be better off with a Winchester (found in barns a lot).

Hehe.
We don't trust anyone, but we do call out friendly or not. If they say friendly, we dispatch one person to monitor them at a distance until we're in the clear. If they show hostility/come too close/raise their weapon, our spotter fires and ends their virtual life.

I gave someone a DMR today. Didn't wanna give up my M16.
BTW - I guess you guys have spare clothes to avoid the camo bug?
-
Picked up an MG....passed up an M16 with a 203.....UGH! I wish I had a bigger pack so I could carry it all.

Camo bug has never affected me and I've had ghilly/regular camo loads of times...it did happen to one of our guys once, but that's just one occurrence out of many many instances of people using camo ;o

Got smoked today due to a login glitch.
I'm done for a while. It's a two hour run to where I need to get....had the last part to fix our truck too.....

That sucks man.
I just found a DMR wooo no more long distant enfield shots. We ended up killing a couple of dudes outside electro today and one out side of the north airfield. Came across a tent that was stuffed with medical supplies took em and ran :rofl
Any idea where a toolbox is?

it was laying on the ground in the fire station right outside of electro. There was an AK74 too.
Been using the animals to survive so far, that meat really helps with the blood situation. I'm still trying to find a group for help.

I still can't believe I let that M16/M203 go. :lol

Was trolling around with a Cz 550 and had a guy in my sights for 10 minutes. I just couldn't bring myself to pick him off :)

this patch....has destroyed this game for me....
I now have to use 6 launcher (which is the WORST program I have ever had the displeasure of using)....program was made by a masochist...

I'm playing and it is fantastic. No mercy, everyone is dead on sight, I am a hunter of men.

oh dear, we'll have to break you of that habit!
next time I see you on Steam I will send you our mumble info if you are still looking for a group to run around with. we sometimes have a ridiculous number of people on though so it can get a bit hectic ;]
we did a bit of a sniper run outside Elektro a few days ago, check out the footage and see how to kill without mercy :rock

sucks about the car though, it already disappeared once after a few server rests happened in quick succession, and then we spent an hour or so getting it back yesterday, guess we shoulda just left it as we knew a patch was coming

Didn't kill you, but I saw it happen lol

Apparently the latest patch is a bit buggy and not enjoyable, haven't had a chance to play myself since night before last but might be good to not upgrade just yet unless you have to (i.e. if every single server is on 1.7.1)
-
YAY! Hot patch!
-
YAY! Hot patch!
it's still broken in some ways unfortunately
no food or drink is spawning right now (or bandages for that matter)
pretty funny for all the guys having to make new characters and start with no beans or water bottles - you can get cans of food/drink by killing zombies sometimes, but new spawned players don't have guns either anymore :rofl
i'm back to AH until the next patch hehe, don't want to die of thirst and lose all my stuff

I've been trying that six launcher tonight, can't even get that downloaded, don't know if they've got a server down or what.
EDIT: Hopefully, I just made some progress. I downloaded this game a while ago on Amazon, and I think my main problem has to do with the folders and such.

No map, i actually downloaded a map of that place on my phone and use that. I just have to guess how far i am from stuff though

I still can't believe they stopped giving noobs guns.... :uhoh

Finally got it working. So far it's been "sneak, sneak, sneak, die by zombie." :uhoh

Got a couple hours on the game now, and I'm a little disappointed. I had one run that I was probably 45-60min into, I had slowly worked my way through the town, getting a good number of supplies. I was about to cross the road into a forest and explore there a little bit; right then a guy runs right in front of my building dragging a dozen zombies. That trapped me in the building and I had no choice but death. I had another long run, had myself a winchester, some ammo, and some tools; again, just about to leave the city and BANG, "you are dead."

What is your name in game?
Today we had a bit of excitement at Balota airfield.
A group of 4 ran up to the control tower 2 of my buddies were inside at the time and they just ran in all at once. They didn't shoot but told them on direct to "get out of the way zombies."
My friends not knowing if they were going to open up ran to the top of the tower. I am off on a hill with my DMR and can see the tower perfectly. All but one guy runs into the top of the tower so now there is 5 people all standing around just looking at each other. I am yelling I can't open fire because I can't tell who is who on our side chat. My friends say they are going to crouch and I see two people crouch down. Right at that moment I find one who is standing and fire. He dies right off his friends freeze in spot and so I send another round and knock out another. I shoot again and kill the last guy in the tower. One of my friends runs to the edge and picks the last guy who was prone on the ground.
I guess after the first one dropped one of the other guys was screaming in direct "friendly friendly" I couldn't hear them from my postion. Any how I have 6 murders now and we have a bunch of loot.

I have been trying my hardest to give this mod the benefit of the doubt, because it's got such potential, but I'm just not having fun. It seems like I go from house to house, only to find I can't actually get into most of them, then when I do get in, I find empty soda cans and tins cans. I've consider myself lucky to be finding a crowbar, so I can at least hit the zombie a time or two. I've found a gun once or twice, but that's usually followed by getting killed by another player. I have learned not to trust anyone showing a gun. Don't hesitate, shoot them (which I would do if I found a gun).
I did find it funny how the player base is similar to Aces High. There are a lot of "realistic" arguments on the forums (nothing makes you sound smarter than the "THIS IS WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE" on a zombie game). There are also a lot of people who use the, "This isn't COD, you actually have to work for this game."

I have been trying my hardest to give this mod the benefit of the doubt, because it's got such potential, but I'm just not having fun. It seems like I go from house to house, only to find I can't actually get into most of them, then when I do get in, I find empty soda cans and tins cans. I've consider myself lucky to be finding a crowbar, so I can at least hit the zombie a time or two. I've found a gun once or twice, but that's usually followed by getting killed by another player. I have learned not to trust anyone showing a gun. Don't hesitate, shoot them (which I would do if I found a gun).

What is your name in game?
Today we had a bit of excitement at Balota airfield.
A group of 4 ran up to the control tower 2 of my buddies were inside at the time and they just ran in all at once. They didn't shoot but told them on direct to "get out of the way zombies."
My friends not knowing if they were going to open up ran to the top of the tower. I am off on a hill with my DMR and can see the tower perfectly. All but one guy runs into the top of the tower so now there is 5 people all standing around just looking at each other. I am yelling I can't open fire because I can't tell who is who on our side chat. My friends say they are going to crouch and I see two people crouch down. Right at that moment I find one who is standing and fire. He dies right off his friends freeze in spot and so I send another round and knock out another. I shoot again and kill the last guy in the tower. One of my friends runs to the edge and picks the last guy who was prone on the ground.
I guess after the first one dropped one of the other guys was screaming in direct "friendly friendly" I couldn't hear them from my postion. Any how I have 6 murders now and we have a bunch of loot.
is this the one int the NE coner of the map someone shot me off the Fire house couple days ago was watching a VW van doin 90 up the ramp ran into a hanger then a gunfight started then someone shot me I assume from across the airfield.
-
Last night was an absolute blast. Some poor bloke took a bus he repaired to the airfield (by himself...guess he went without his group and had it sitting in the woods nearby) and my two buddies and I took it, went rampaging through some nearby towns. Long story short, we went to Komarovo to get parts and the bus magically blew up and disappeared.
Was weird. We were all outside the bus (within 15 meters) and suddenly it went invisible and none of us could hear. :confused:
Well....back to repairing our troop truck. :devil

Taking your time is important in most places but you have to get through airfields quick. Too many people camp them or go to them.
There is other places to find good miltary equipment. Deer stands and the camp in stary are good places.
This map is a very good tool for finding military stuff http://dayzdb.com/map

soooo ... not an easy game eh? :uhoh
having spent 4 evenings wandering round throwing empty cans at zombies or getting fragged by every survivor Ive run into (except one very helpful german guy), I'm finally hiding out in the woods with bandages, morphine, painkillers, food and a lee enfield with 5 clips :aok
the biggest problem I've had with this mod is finding a server which 1. has the time set like its description and 2. doesnt crash or dump my character after 5mins play :bhead
something about this mod is resetting my ADSL connection too - very strange indeed. turned off DOS defence, no effect. enabled fragmented packet support, no effect. I cant imagine what could do this :headscratch:
some more annoying things:
zeds walking through closed doors. grrrr.
getting killed by a wooden door closing. grrrr.
zeds mauling me through walls. grrrr.
taking damage from a tin can I threw bouncing back and hitting me. grrrr.
-
Lol. I get mad at that stuff too, but I have to remind myself it's an Alpha. :P

Reminds me of the time my buddy and I were using empty whiskey bottles to bust the windows in one of the hospitals in Cherno and he hit me smack dab in the head. My character went temporarily deaf. All I heard was the high pitch noise. :lol

I was just popping into Polana to grab a few cans at the grocery store, but on my approach I saw some poor noobs running around with a chemlight...hope this wasn't any of you guys!

Spent 3+ hours looting and found an awesome pair of NVGs and logged out to find a night server :rock, BUT the game gave me the finger and spawned me in the woods with no gear.

Same happened to me spawned me out in debug plains. I ran out of food and water before I could get back.
A group of 4 killed me in stary but killed each other in the process after I wounded one. The last guy alive ended up killing me.

ask coombz, i've been following his group around
Spawned in with a new player and got the plains. At least the game gave me some multicam :lol.
Also, I think I ended up w/ unlimited food and water. I've been running this whole time and nothing has decreased

Means your install is wrong or you booted it from steam while you have 6 updater/launcher. Next time you spawn in a legit way, you'll end up in the debug plains.
Players and Zombies won't be able to see you but you can kill them.

My crew of 6 wouldn't mind some others. I think Coombz's group likes the small numbers.
I miss our bus. :(

Ya, i just respawned a few times and it sorted itself out.

The AS 50? I found it near a downed chopper by the NWAF. It's an extremely rare item. I found it and gave it to my buddy. I'm GREAT at sniping due to some RL stuff ('rah) but it's boring IMHO. When I find a Coyote BACKPACK I'll keep on in my pack. :P

Been playing for the past few days, and aside from some annoying as hell "bugs", its a fun mod. :)
Spawned in one of the big cities right after the Map Reset (every 8 hours on the server I play) and managed to get a Lee and 60 rounds for it. Found a roof and went crazy. ~50 kills with the Lee before running out of ammo, so waiting on the roof with ~32 rounds of .45 and lots of various ammo and the essentials to survive.
One of my main annoyances is other players. I never know who I can trust and I'm not one to shoot first, I prefer cooperation, something most dislike. Hell, I ran into someone with a .45 when I had no weapons, I gave him the .45 ammo I had on me (of my own accord) and we went our ways without ever saying a word. But sometimes I'm just walking and BAM head-shot from nowhere.
I do think I got someone killed though, poor bastage ran towards the building I was sniping from....I had about ~10 zombies swarming the door below me and he came in the back door. Heard a few shots then it just went silent, still not sure what happened to him. :lol

glad you're having fun ;]
survival = shooting first
that doesn't negate any possibility of co-operation, but I think that it's best to group up with people you know and trust rather than randoms

If you end up on US124-127 you'll be safe in Elektro. :D
I play on those Servers (hosted by RoosterTeeth) and have been providing a bit of an over-watch to Elektro. Got a CZ550 lastnight (~4 hours of running in 1 night for that) and a nice little sniping spot.
Little disappointed in myself, had to murder someone 2 days ago, now I have this "murders: 1" lingering in my info console. Was mostly justified in that he intentionally murdered an innocent, but still hate doing it. Mostly been picking off zombies as they come to close to other survivors, primarily those who would stand little chance if they agro'd one.
Also, if people don't have a voice server yet, feel free to use the Bearcats one. Ever since our main game server shut down, it's awfully quiet.

Another guy and I were sitting on a hill overlooking a chopper and suddenly we notice zombies at a deer stand. We spread out to watch for the guy when suddenly I catch a glimpse of someone in civie clothes right in front of me. I'm sitting there on mumble going "Bridude is that you?! Are you next to a evergreen tree?!". When i remembered ,right before the guy turned around, that bridude had cammo on, not normal clothes. Suddenly, the guy turned around and fired. It hit me in the leg and I let 4 7.62s from my M14 downrange. I managed to live and now have 2 murders on this character.
Bridude said I scared the crap out of him because I was like, "Is that you? Is that you?" BANG BANG BANG BANG :lol

TW crew are good chaps, is Bridude still running round as a laydee?

Had a great morning.I got a call last night to go to dinner so I logged off on the top a Pik Kozlova. I did not want to log off there but I was in a hurry. Anyway I logged in this morning and turn and look and BAM 4 tents maybe 10 meters away. They are filled with military stuff so I loot and run. I took a as50,rangefinder,NVGs and see a coyote back pack. I get in touch with a friend and we arrange to meet he was far north west and so we meet half way. On our way back to get him the backpack we find a down heli and loot it. Found a FAL, L85 and a set of NVGs for him.

2 things to learn from what kilo2 states...never, ever setup camp on top of mountains or in valley between two mountains. Also try to spread your tents out far enough apart that if one gets raided the others may not be subjected to same raiders. This goes for real life as well.
-
Also Pik Kozlova is a haven for snipers to use those AS50's and M107's to snipe unsuspecting players who respawn down around Cherno and Elektro.

I been able to play a bit, it really is a fun mod.. if frustrating.
Got all kitted up and was happyas a clam, checking out a deer stand for a military grade rifle when I got blindsided by a zombie that broke my leg.
Thats pretty much game over.
Then I was raiding Rog castle and started to climb the stairs, when some dude was laying half in a wall on the stairs shot at me I had only a hatchet and he hit me and killed me. Ran into one nice guy and been pvped about 4 times now.
Found a camo package, and tried to change into it, got thrown into the air, then in water then back where I had been next to myself then dead.. :rofl. Lost an AKM and Pdw that time..
Got the crap scared out of me one time.. it was night and I was sneaking around a barn when I heard a zombie on my right.. spun nothing.. still heard it, spun more.. nothing.. its freaking close making growling snarling slobbery noses.. I am laying down frantically trying to see how close it was when my chair jarred.. I about jumped, I then realized what I had been hearing was my 12 yr old basset who had came in and laid down next to me, doing her personal maintenance grooming.. dang Dog does these things on purpose..
Not seeing 255 but do see 256.. huh.

Found a barn with 2- 3 zombies out front, snuck past them but must have cut myself on a rusty nail or something because out of nowhere the screen went black white and I realized I was hemorraging blood at an alarming rate. Got inside and luckily found a bandage, but by the time I figured out how to use it I was down 300 units of blood or so. This was really unfortunate because I also found a Winchester style rifle. After a few, inutes of blak and white blurry vision I got tired and ran outside guna blazing.

Yep, just popped on for a few minutes, hit a couple deer stands hoping for a weapon just came away with a few clips of ammo. Found a farmhouse but looks like I'm going to strike out there as well. Figure I need to make my way to one of the villages and try to sneak in to look for some food and water here pretty soon.

you think that's creeping?
I been watching this case with my M107 for about 2 nights now, Seen people come and go, Seen them all sit down near a camp fire, I'm 1.5k out, Just this morning one of them logged in with a buddie and went to the fire and cooked some food, I then shot at 1.5k and killed him and his buddy droped a load in his pants and logged out, Now i moved to other spot.

I am spending all my time in game now being a taxi, using motorbike and boat to pick people up when they respawn or need medical attention :-) don't need loot anymore and I've become too timid to want to die on this character :uhoh
the cars and trucks are fun but too much effort planning a route to stick on roads
-
Looks like DayZ may turn into a stand alone, free to play multi-player game.

Sounds like a FPS version of Oregon Trail...only the oxen die and come back as zombies. Very interesting concept, I'd try it if it ever comes out solo as I do not have any of the ARMA games.
-

Best vehicle in the game so far is the bicycle...doesn't need fuel, goes fast enough to outrun the zombies and really doesn't draw any unwanted attention unless you are driving it through Elektro or Cherno past the sniper station at Pik Kozlovo.

motorbike is better imho :D can carry 2 jerry cans easily and very fuel efficient, and unlike the bicycle it won't crash and kill you if you hit a bunny rabbit!
same as the bicycle if you damage it, you just jump off, jump back on and it's fixed
plus you can do wheelies

wished I had known that one. Would have made my run back to camp much less eventful! Ran over something and wheels went flat. Then chased back to the coast by Zeds dying of thirst I found soda at Komarov next to the industrial buildings.
Great game

I love baiting people... Put an M4A1 CCO, 5 mags, 2 grenades, medical supplies and food in the apartment streets in Cherno; watch the bodies pile up. :D

New version is out today... 1.7.2 is rolling to downloads today. Might want to wait a bit because several people are talking about characters dying on login to the mod.
-
Stuck on loading screen.
This is just bleep
:furious
-
Supposed to have a hotfix released in the next 24-36 hours to cure those problems of lost gear and stuck on loading screens. However supposedly all tents and vehicles will be reset but not the gear on the players.
-
i was looking in the servers files and found some new things added.
BTR90
LAV25
Armed Hilux
-
Well, I am not the greatest driver in this game, looks as if the vehicle went through demolition derby.

Any downed helos on US 255? I haven't found a single one in the usual places that I find them on other servers.
-
I can't ever get away from the things. I usually find them everywhere.
-
Just a heads up that tents are disappearing across many servers. The SimHQ group I have been playing with has lost probably 5-7 tents today on 3 different servers and the same thing happened to a buddy of mine that plays with another group. They had 10 server camps up with 5 tents in each one and lost all 10 camps. Everything from weapons to food and water bottles were gone. As far as I know none of it with these two groups were hacked items in the game either.
-
There clearing out tents in citys / debug so you might lose them.

It doesn't matter all characters default back to the TSA looking gear even if you dropped the other stuff. However tents are disappearing and reappearing now at the servers whim still.

No they were gone
of course there is no guarantee

Well, I'm going to NC for two weeks soon..so I'll just wait until then. :P

HAHA
The update is out right now 1.7.2.1 has apparently fixed the ghillie/camo clothing problems and they are releasing another update again today to bring it up to 1.7.2.2
-
Did they change the aggro range?
-
This game looks like so much fun! Was watching streams earlier today :)
-
Did they change the aggro range?
Yes and no...some of the zombies act differently than others. Last night I walked upright, slowly through a crowd of about 10 zombies in Khelm and only got a sniff out of one of them who aggro'd about the time I was 10-20 feet from it. Then the others woke up to the fact that a non-zombie was in close proximity and then it became a fight for my character to get the heck out of the area. I was fortunate that I wasn't in the middle of the town since I wouldn't have made it out with all my gear.
Things may change with the updates today as that little scene played out with version 1.7.2.

-
And it just got mentioned that they released the wrong code to the public. The code that got released was for internal testing only.
-
1.7.2.3? I really hope this fixes everything. Because 1.7.1.5 was great.
-
1.7.2.3 has fixed a bunch of the problems they created by having the internal code released. It works really good but don't use DayZcommander to launch the game. It gets hung up all the time with that launcher. Use 6Launcher to start the game; however DayZcommander is a great tool to track servers and find buddies.

-
They do stay on your character but they are extremely hard to find for whatever reason now...as are medical supplies and it seems that the sniffles and coughs are back in force in the game as well so medical supplies are even harder to find if you can.
-
If i meet someone with a cough they get shot that simple, My Medical supplies are for me and my group.

Still wish I could hook up with you guys on 255 Marine. I was on there this morning with my son and one of the SimHQ guys for a while at Stary Sobor doing a tent raid looking for handguns since I lost mine in all the server madness last week and hadn't found one. I had just found a G17 and was putting it on my toolbelt before we headed out of the camp and BOOM sniper shot to the head. The other guy got sniped trying to get my DMR and DMR ammo out of my ALICE pack but my son discoed on command.

So while omw NW, I drop by a church which turns out to be a burnt shell.. while leaving there I got a Zombie buddy who,died, fell and broke my leg.. in the middle of no where.. any ideas on what to so?

Find some morphine. Unless you can get someone to give you some morphine all you can do is crawl around looking.

Ive found morphine on the military Zeds patrolling around the deer hides a few times. other than that you got to crawl to a hospital ...

Been looking for a car again.
Someone found our loaded URAL and stole it.
The kicker they left a bike parked in the exact spot the URAL was.
-
Stary Sobor? Might of been me, Sniped a few guys there.
If so then it happened around 11am yesterday morning Central Time.
-
The guys I hooked up with from SimHQ found a URAL parked in the middle of the road loaded with all kinds of repair parts and empty fuel cans but no fuel. They happened to have three or four cans of fuel and filled up the URAL then ran it up to Gorka to get gas. They found this one down northeast of Kamyshovo on Sunday morning.

You mean the head bobbing? Or..?

He means head bobbing. I have mine on but very low. I play for realism, not for ease. It's unrealistic how much the poor sap moves his head.
Rule #1: Do the basic training

Anyway it's "Head bob" in your settings.

This mod is going belly up fast, the Dayz Dev team demanded HBF servers to pull at FTP file access, I myself turned of my server until the dayz dez wise up and so did other 100 server owner's.
-
Tried playing today but it kept crashing before I could load in. :cry
-
Killed a couple poor sapps last night in the cherno church. I even took the guy's map.
-
Which server was this?
I don't remember which server it was on now since the latest patches aren't backwards compatible due to some BattleEye crap. They said it was found right in the middle of the road in good condition except for the fuel. It was loaded with lots of repair kits and even some helo parts. I don't know if you can repair the crashed helos but that is what it sounds like that group they took it from was trying to do.

cc that...that's exactly what I am talking about......will have to change that, game seemed cool otherwise.
-
Since I get violently ill in some FPS games I turned the head bob completely off. I generally have to play on servers that allow 3rd person views only or I end up puking in the trash can at my desk and then I have to log off for a day or so from any games.
-
So is US 255 down or is it just not going to get updated again?

Anyone want a M107? I just found a hideout someone made with 3 of them and a bunch of other stuff.. I can't carry one with the rest of my gear..

Btw, when I log into 255, I end up in Cherno without gear in front of a hosipital... what's up with that?

There's a bunch more videos like that. There is another where a group of vigilantes capture a bandit and strip him of all his gear and them make him walk down the middle of the road in Cherno near a group of zombies. One of the vigilante starts firing in the air and aggros the mob of zombies and starts to run back to where the vigilantes and bandit were. The vigilantes tell the bandit to start running and if he escapes from the zombies they'll let him go, so he starts running. One of the vigilantes pulls out a rifle and shoots the bandit in the leg. The end of the video shows the vigilantes getting in their jeep and motorcycles and driving off, leaving the bandit crawling on the road with the zombies about to over take him.
Then there is the video where some players fixed an assault helicopter and start doing some ground attack sorties.

Then there are the times like today I was playing on a night server...US 870...and I see a bus going down the road out of Novy Sobor headed for Guglova and I pull out my DMR to take a shot at the driver since he probably had some extra goodies on the bus. Anyway having just used a grenade to end all the zombies in a building where I needed to locate a hatchet I had just lost...well I ended up tossing the grenade instead of smoking him with my DMR and then I am all busted up with broken legs, bleeding out and in shock and the bus turns down the road headed for Mogliveka since I threw the grenade. I bet that dude crapped his pants when my unintended IED went off about 100 meters east of his bus.

it'll probably all come back after a server reset
certainly the tents will

Day 2 of Day Z - convinced some 14 yr old I had no weapon, till I found one and popped a cap in his ass.
Been on the run for 6 hours, have some 100 zombie kills, running around like a fruit between 2 houses gathering ammo etc. I keep trying to expand my search but problem is some houses have simply to many zombies.
I got a double barrel shotgun and two shots really blow bellybutton if they are more then 10 feet away.

I just got the game and just started learning it, LOL had to watch a tutorial on how to use the Chem Lights, which worked out great in the dark since I baited a player trying to get some ammo for his guns - I was in a barn and threw one down, he ran and stopped on top of it in the middle of the night -
blasted him then looted and ran to the hills - sure enough 5 minutes later he came back fuming pissed and died to zombies LOL.
I hate to being a biatch like that, but what he don't remember is when I had NO Gun he actually followed and killed me! i even told him "dont bother killing me I only have one bandage" boom dead. Karma caught up with him, seen him again running around with a Chem light and got myself a sniper rifle! yay! :)
I'm playing on server 1522, its a recruit server but so far im learning the ropes quite nice :)
-
darn I found a Lee Enfield and was doing fine until I got one shotted by a Zombie, I didn't realize but I switched from a recruit server to a Veteran.
DARN! :(
-
yeah I was sticking to regular servers if possible but my last life I ended up joining a vet server, spawned in, crept down some stairs and got bumrushed by 2 of the undead bstards. first strike knocked me out and the rest ... was messy.
I was on 30h+ and for the very first time ever had a gun, an axe, a box of matches and a bunch of med supplies. first time ever!
that was 3 weeks ago. more of a groan-quit than a rage-quit.
-
regular/veteran/expert difficult doesn't affect the zombies
on regular servers you will have things like nametags when you mouseover another player making it really difficult to be stealthy
generally veteran/expert servers turn off things like nametags, crosshairs, and 3rd person, or some combination of the three...our server has 3rd person on but crosshairs and nametags off
i'm on day 20-something now I think, not having any time to play sure helps with the average life expectancy :(
-
is that the only difference? I never used any of those, I like ironsights and dont even know the kb cmd for 3D lol. I assumed it would sharpen up the zeds and spawn more of em per player as well. I would have RTFM if there was one ...
-
for 3rd person just press enter on your numpad, I find it very useful for not falling off things or getting stuck in doorways, and making sure i'm as close to invisible as possible while hiding in a bush with my ghillie suit :]
also makes driving a lot easier (although less immersive)

Decided to check the NWAF today and got to the ATCT and saw a dead body. :uhoh
Meh, wth...let's check. No primary weapon but........

.......a Coyote Back Pack! :O :pray Thank God! First one ever!
Then we spotted tow downed heli's right next to each other....but come to find out they were actually "crashed" heli's LOL. Nearly side by side!
Then just random stuff like M14's and ammo.
Oh and my buddy's game glitched....this is what it looked like right before I spotted the dead guy.

:lol lol wtf?
Bought it on Saturday, having plenty of fun on Butcher's server. I just hate the stupid glitches and and the rather buggy zombies. Then again, it is still an alpha (or is it beta?), so I can't complain too much. Fun mod :). I've yet to kill another player intentionally though. :t

Can't stand 6Launcher...it creates more problems by automatically updating the game than I thought were possible. Besides you have no idea what it is updating when it decides to update and it creates some really weird problems as well.
I only use the manual game launch now but I use DayzCommander to pull up server lists when I am not in the game.
Still wanting to hook up with a bunch of AH guys and raid some guys. I have a bunch of locations of what we have termed "Shangri La" locations with the SimHQ guys up north. These are places with all the "Gucci" gear one player could want. The problem is that sometimes they are guarded and when heading in you have to scan with thermal sights to locate the bad guys before running to pillage the tents like random barbarians.
-
Server already has 12 people in it, simply look for "Top" in the Six Launcher :)
You got a number or IP address for it? I don't use 6Launcher and am always looking to grab a game with AH guys.

Picture of me last night on a night server outside of Berezino taking a look through the scope of my DMR WITHOUT NVG's as it was a full moon and I was just inside the tree line scoping for a recon element as we were going to go into town. However we pulled the plug on it because we couldn't get the fracking "dead soldier" graphics glitch to stop and it was creating some goofy screens.

DayZ is now going to be a stand alone game using the same business model as Minecraft.

They keep talking about it, but I'm more excited about battle eye finally doing something. :(

Today I was on a server and saw the Battleye message where they supposedly did a global ban on something like 10k users based on serial number or CD keys. Anyway a bunch of guys from SimHQ were back on US 137 about 3 hours later and they got script hacked AFTER they ambushed a couple players running towards Stary Sobor from the south. Everyone in the group was picked up and dropped from up about 2000 feet but only one guy missed the key to bailing out from the game before his character died.
-
Aw that sucks.
The server ate our tents and we lost everything. :/
-
10,000 is practically nothing compared to the 1,000,000+ players we already have.
Although we did run into a hacker's hiding spot and found every single vehicle in the game, each filled to the brink with loot. Took it and stashed it in our own hiding spots :). Although 5 minutes after finding it, Butcher decides to go for a joyride in a heli and crashes it. :bhead

Dolby how do you like the SVD? I prefer the DMR but I have only had a few shots down range with the SVD in the game.
-
It looks good, that's the only benefit :D

Found an M14 with Red dot sight. :rock :D :devil

Ha, I dont need any SD guns with my M4A3 and AS50 :D
-
pffft you guys need to man up
winchester, revolver and axe :rock
-
I was tempted to trade my AS50 for an SVD.
1. The SVD is MUCH quieter
2. The SVD isn't as visible at a distance
BUT it takes two shots to the body to bring a man down (head shots on moving targets isn't practical with this clunky engine atm)
-

I am going on a naked run with an axe tomorrow to celebrate my player's 1 month birthday haha
-
:rofl
:aok
-
Hmm I prefer the M14 with the one hit kill. G17 for quieter spots.
-
I've always found winchester, revolver and axe to be one shot kills too ... :D
-
Dmr/g17 best combo. Been using that mostly but I have used the m14 with red dot. Killed a group of 4 in an ambush with it.
-
1911 and Revolver aren't 1 shot kills anymore.

nerf city! :confused:

Yea, but the M14 reaches farther out than the Winchester, I picked up one too but now that I have the M14, it's much better. I'm just looking around for a silenced pistol now and I'll be set.
-
RT, your soo loud. I bet you have a Hawaiian shirt in DayZ too :eek:
-
yeah screw gilly suits - people will chase you for miles trying to kill you for em ;)

You can't take one off a dead body :P

My loadout till I die next time....
Ghillie
M4CCOSD
G17
DMR
Coyote Pack
Rangefinders
NVG's
Compass, map and watch and GPS
The rest is just gravy...hunting knife, hatchet, matches, etc...
I like playing on 3rd person servers but hate the ones that have Nameplates and cross hairs as well. Nameplates and cross hairs are easy mode; sort of like arcade "flight sims".
-
Yep, I got every goodies except for a Ghillie, and a silenced pistol. Well, maybe grenades. :D

Me as well I never play on those servers. 3rd person is ok but the rest are not any fun.
-
be nice to find a damn guillie suit, i've been camping out berezino's apartments hoping to get one, until then I am staying away from PVP on large servers.
Working on an M4CCOSD as well, I have an M4CCO just need the SD part :D
As for sniper rifle, M107 makes a pretty nice bang, as in it lets every player within a town know you have a nice big gun, thing is though even foot shots still kill :D
-
Nearly killed by a hacker tonight. :uhoh
I found DayZ IRL

Apparently he 'ports people near him then chases them around with an axe while playing little demonic child music. xD :rofl

If you guys that are in need of some gucci gear want to I might be able to score a few ghillies and M4SD's from the epic stash's being found up in the hinterlands on some servers up north. Of course you will have to meet me up in the recon areas and I can supply you guys with some good gear. Typically I am finding these things on some of the older servers and they are in camps all along the northern and western edges of the map. Drop me a PM and I will gladly connect with you guys in game to help out.

I've been farming residential buildings all week, nothing..
I take all the trash loot, dump it 150 meters away, wait 10 minutes go back.
Really sucks

If you want the Gucci kit the best way (other than finding someone's tent) is to scout out fresh helo crashes or killing guys that already have it. Personally, I like the Enfield, 1911, Chezk vestpack, and Combats.

Before the update you could just log out to refill to a full clip.
A lot of things have changed with the new patch.
logging out still helps to repair damage just done to a Vehicle also.

:confused: Alrighty then.
People keep talking about duping stuff etc. All of which I have no idea how to do. I'm just running around lol.

If you log out with at least 1 bullet left in a clip, the clip is refilled when you log back in. But that was in 1.2.7.4.
If you damage a vehicle and relog, the vehicle's damage disappears.
If you log while being chased by zombies, they disappear.
If you take all items from an area and drop it at least 100m away, new loot respawns 10 minutes later.

Sweet pic! What is the "3820 m" identifier on the left? I hadn't seen any distances in the game before, except through rangefinders.

If you have a map, set a waypoint by shift + left click on a spot and that arrow will show you you're distance from it and where to go.

Wow! Does this work on all servers? I just tried on a veteran server and it worked like a champ! :x I had been dead-reckoning or manually GPSing it when available! :bhead

A lot of servers disable it or used to. Idk if they made it permanent.

Should I used AS50 or SVD and why?
----
All of our tents were smashed.....even the guy who kept duping M24's in his tent for us to steal.
-
Finally started playing for the last 4 days. It has it's extreme ups when you get a map, a compass and a watch all in one area with a weapon. Then you try and get to cover and get shot. That's probably the worst feeling ever. lol

Neither....I have an SVD camo I will give you for a DMR in the game. I would rather have a DMR for the simple fact that you can use it with NVG's since the AS50 and SVD are useless at night without NVG's.

Alright. Let me talk to my friend. He's got one.
All of the tents on the server seem to be crushed....not sure what's up. We still have our weapons (DMR too).

I'm debating checking this game out.
My concerns are the bugs and the hackers. I can live with getting player killed. (I think) I have been checking out you tube videos and forums so I have some idea of what I would be getting into. I'm just thinking I may wait for the stand alone to be released. If someone has a strong argument for going for it now let me know.
I have played Arma 2 offline but never online mostly the quick single player missions.

I don't play any FPS game anymore because of the rampant hacking problem. Another reason to steer away from certain games are the 'premium' accounts and DLC weaponry which is the dumbest idea ever for anyone but the game producers. DayZ seems funny though from reading user stories.
-
It's a blast. I'd still be playing DayZ and AH if my computer worked.
-
Yes it is good...yes hackers have basically ruined the public servers. Right now I only play on whitelisted servers with the newest Survive Dayz mods and servers that have the Takistan or Fallujah maps; I rarely play on Lingor Island maps now.
I am getting burned out on the Alpha in its current state as development is somewhat stalled since apparently the two guys from Bohemia Interactive that were arrested in Greece for espionage charges were integral parts of the DayZ development staff and they are not coming home anytime soon. I guess you get problems like that when you take pictures of foreign countries military bases without asking permission first. I read the part about the staff being integral on the dayzmod.com forums from Rocket himself.

I wonder what these guys were thinking. And in Greece too.. the prisons are not exactly holiday camps and the bureucracy alone will take them months even if they won't get prosecuted!
