I keep getting stuck at the loading screen, on like 8 different servers this has happened...
Who's at the NW airfield in the FP server shooting like crazy?
[QUOTE=manian112;36447388]Do you have any idea what weapon he had?[/QUOTE]
Enfield or Winchester.
Most likely Enfield, and the way upto the tower is barbed so you can't go up and kill him
Is there an easy way to play with friends? Or do we have to find each other the hard way?

Hard way, though you could boot up the map and use steam chat or skype or some shit to arrange a place to meet to make things easier.
Well, easier than just blundering through Chernarus like I do anyway :v:

Kay, I'll go grab my DMR and try to finish this guy off.
What will I miss out on if I don't have OA but just the standalone Arma II?

Dayz
I'm debating if I should try to swim out to Slatski island now that the water bug is fixed.

Sorry if it wasn't fun people wouldn't play it, the difficulty adds to the sense of achievement and accomplishment, i.e getting a weapon and surviving for ages feels amazing. That's how difficulty adds to the fun of a game. It doesn't mean you can screw people over, if there's one thing people hate in a game it's difficulty that isn't modulated in someway by gameplay, i.e difficulty that seems stacked a good example would be super accurate A.I. in some games that headshot you a mile off. Difficulty can be variable but players will hate it if there isn't a way to overcome a certain obstacle or the difficulty is entrenched by some poor mechanics, i.e right now breaking your legs is an example of this, it's normally due to collision bugs or just downright stupid mechanics, people don't like that kind of difficulty because it's just plain unfair.
It doesn't mean the game can be unforgiving as fuck or super hard because then the scales would tip to the point where it wouldn't be fun, you have to get a fine balance.
Most people like the game over other games because it is harder then most titles on the market, but they don't like it due to the difficulty alone, it's more or less a side-effect of the gameplay mechanics, if the mechanics weren't fresh (survival) it would also unlikely be fun. Notice how many people got angry and said it wasn't fun when 1.7.1 rolled over and it was impossible to not aggro zombies (fine as of 1.7.1.5), there's where your balance breaks.

The fella began firing at me, noticed that I accidentally didn't pick up any mags, yelled to my mic.
"BRB, gonna go get some ammo, don't go anywhere!"
I really, really, really need food by Stary Sobor. PLEASE. I can give you a AK and some mags.
Edit: On the FP server.
[QUOTE=Garik;36441371]People who hate the first person propably haven't learned about the freelook feature yet.
And third person just is so easily used to look over walls and such. I really wouldn't miss it if it left.
And as for side, people who say it should be back because it was comedy gold, it was more fun to walk through forests with chat on the background.
Well, here's the thing, DayZ isn't meant to be fun, it's meant to be hard as fuck, and unforgiving as hell.[/QUOTE]
This is the most idiotic rant I've ever heard, a game isn't meant to be fun? What a fucking joke.
I use third person because of how clunky first person is.
The third person option has been in since the first game in the series.
I finally met a friendly near Msta but goddamn Zombieland decided to spawn on us
I got about 50 of them before I died
No clue where the other guy went
I only like first person with my trackIR.
Got killed with no weapons and barely anything of use in cherno. guuuh.
Don't go to cherno then.

Before the guy showed up
Got aggrod through a wall
the ATV is hands down the sketchiest vehicle i've driven so far. I hit a small dip and flew through the air upside down. I trust a bicycle more.
anyone at the airfield on 133? we'll group with you (2 people)
[editline]23rd June 2012[/editline]
forget that, someone just sniped both of us in a 2 second range
Sorry that was me.
If I had read that before I shot, I wouldn't have. But I just saw two survivors between me and my escape. High level gear syndrome strikes again.
Sometimes I just prefer a lee enfield and a can of beans.

Where...where are you? I don't want you to shoot us D:
I've gone. I generally don't shoot everything I see anymore.

did you see two guys and one holding a machine gun a couple days ago? Cause I died from a sniper.

if you die we're grouping up in favor now
I've only moved to US133 today.
Ah okay, I think next time I go to the airfields I am going to go to an empty server, go in the barracks, and find the fucker that killed me.
