DayZ Mod - Crawling Simulator 2012 Dammit rocket what did you break this time? - Games

[QUOTE=GhostG45;36509031]I hated the FAL anyway. You didn't have to be so hasty, I wasn't going to fire on you but oh well such is live in the Zo-- er, Chernarus.[/QUOTE] Yeah I heard you from a mile away so I hid in that convenience store knowing you would show up eventually.

[QUOTE=sikutrez;36509055]Yeah I heard you from a mile away so I hid in that convenience store knowing you would show up eventually.[/QUOTE] Mhm, was just fucking around outside of the town because I had aimlessly made my way up there so it's no surprise you heard me.

I'm in the mumble thing-a-majig, but my girlfriend is sleeping, so I can't talk right now. EDIT: Left it, isn't fun if you can't participate :v: Going to be on my own though, far from cities and such.

What's the likelihood that Arma2 will go on sale during the Steam summer sale? My friend is looking to buy but waiting until the sale starts.

[QUOTE=GhostG45;36509361]What's the likelihood that Arma2 will go on sale during the Steam summer sale? My friend is looking to buy but waiting until the sale starts.[/QUOTE] Very likely. It's the top game in the top sellers list on the Steam store.

[QUOTE=silentjubjub;36508934]Ugh. Zombie AI is still broken. Was prone in some military tents in Stary when a police officer screams and suddenly every zombie is piling up inside of the tent. I made a loud racket making my escape and ended up getting shot while doing so. :C[/QUOTE] Ohhhh that was you... We'd been shadowing you for a good 15 minutes or so, I was quite literally behind the tent you were in. I was scrambling to figure out how to change comm settings to say something, but then you bolted, and got gunned down by my two comrades. I kinda wanted to say something, maybe have like... one positive contact with another human outside the herd, but no. You got gunned down by my friend on the hill, and another frogman was stalking you from the south.

What I really want from DayZ is a ACEX and ACRE compatible version.

Nice playing with everyone tonight. To the asshole who killed me 20 seconds before server restart. I dislike you very much. Lost me an alice pack filled with all the stuff to fix a helicopter to usability.

I have gone my whole time in the game without killing anyone, trying to avoid contact with anybody not in the mumble. I was effectively waiting around in that tent aiming my AKM at the opening because I had a feeling someone was nearby for some reason...

[QUOTE=oakman26;36509663]Im retarded and i cant tell when people are sarcastic is camp autism really where i was told it was?[/QUOTE] Seeing as how people can't make up their minds about the location of that camp, it's probably on the other side of the map or something by now. Anyways, I would like to join the camp but I won't ask where it is until tomorrow. It's probably really dark by now and I don't have any gear anymore.

We'll jump on the mumble next time, at least one of us will.

Our experience navigating in DayZ... Also known as how not to navigate. [video=youtube_share;N2ezzHkKsbQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2ezzHkKsbQ[/video]

who put that oioioioi marker down on US133 and how did you even do that

Someone made a remark towards me saying something along the lines of me always eating when in the mumble... Sorry guys, not my fault I am always hungry...

Another friend of mine who bought the game has played it for a total of maybe three or four hours and says he doesn't enjoy playing it because it's boring as hell. I just wish he'd give it more of a chance to the point where him and I can actually get into some memorable situations before he throws out $30. :(

Crap. so if you can't get in cars in frogsuits, can you get in them with camo clothes?

[QUOTE=oakman26;36509809]doubleclick map[/QUOTE] but there's no global channels anymore ???? why can i see those [editline]26th June 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=S31-Syntax;36509836]Crap. so if you can't get in cars in frogsuits, can you get in them with camo clothes?[/QUOTE] my crew was rolling around in our lemon yellow hatchback with all ghillie suits before we got owned by the kansas 1 hacker, so maybe it's not an actual working car. there's this stupid white wreck that looks almost exactly like a working GAZ.

We found that one too. Wandered around the city for like a half hour before figuring out it wasn't usable. But in that vid they couldn't get in the car with frogsuits. Around 5:00

My normal crew is all offline, and none of them have had a chance to gear up, so I'm pretty bored. I've got a ghillie suit and an L85 AWS.

Is there any kinda guide on 'how to not get deaded by zeds' around? Far as I can see, going prone and moving slowly around zombies results in my getting kicked to death. When I run past the zombies to loot bodies I only find empty cans, barbed wire and bullets, meaning I starve later before getting beaten to a pulp by the zombies that never stop chasing you. The one time I grabbed an axe off a guy's body, killed the zombies chasing me and hid inside a garage with all the doors closed, the zombies ran through the doors and killed me through a wall. This game is harder than I first thought :suicide:

Yeah, zombie detection is broken right now. However, if you run into the forest, preferably a forested mountain, and zig-zag up the slope, they will slowly get left behind. Once they are far enough behind, just go straight up. You'll leave them halfway up the slope, and you at the top. By the time they shamble to the top, you'll be long gone. You can also break line of sight and get down to be quiet., aka, sprinting ahead and getting behind a tree (sometimes) works.

I'm going to make a short little audio recording of how to start off in DayZ for beginners, giving tips and what not on how to start off and become super l33t and all, will post tomorrow. Topics will include how to get around without a weapon, avoiding zombies, and coping with death.

rocket threw stealth out the window, shot it, raped it, burned it, then threw the ashes into the ocean so now you just have to fight your way through the zombies unless you get lucky and the zombies spawn spread out enough and none spawn in buildings also let's not forget zombies spawning right after you kill them or when you fire sometimes

well, once he fixes the broken-ass sight range (when they are actually facing you) and the stupidly huge audio radius, it'll be >way< easier to sneak than it was before. at least in theory.

Stealth works just fine for us. We can get in and out of most places without any incident. We're devising plans for dealing with large numbers of zombies in cities right now, should be fun.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;36510001]there's no stealth now, running full speed is the best tactic[/QUOTE] What are you talking about? I've survived 99% of zombie encounters by simply crouch walking through areas and making sure I don't have more than 1 pip on my ear (zero preferably, which is possible in grass and such). Stealth works fine. it's a little over-sensative once you go over the limit granted (i.e. slightly alert one zombie and every one in the area knows you are there) but it's simple enough to run away twoards the hills or zig-zag through interiors to break their line of sight.

[QUOTE=S31-Syntax;36510086]Stealth works just fine for us. We can get in and out of most places without any incident. We're devising plans for dealing with large numbers of zombies in cities right now, should be fun.[/QUOTE] Go into two-story warehouses, either the factory ones or the derelict sheetmetal ones. Go to any place where they bunch up, like the middle ladder in the sheetmetal one. Throw a grenade. I got 80 zombie kills and saved my life doing this in Stary Sobor once.

[editline]beans[/editline] Also I downloaded the ArmA2OA patch to 94103 off the website, but the Facepunch server is saying I'm at version 1.60, not 1.60.94103 and refuses to let me join. I'm not very good at this v:v:v
