Day Z mod?

[Vudu15]

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. 

Well....back to repairing our troop truck.

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?  

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

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


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


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.

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.

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

Time to freakin start over again

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.
