Huh? PDW deals the same damage as the M9 and all the other small handguns.
Only difference is that it can take 30 rounds, fire at a beastly rate of fire. In other words, it's the perfect backup panic weapon.[/QUOTE]
For some reason I prefer the silenced Makarov, even though it has a small mag it still looks and sounds awesome.
I love dayz and will be buying the standalone. But standalone better have good anti-hack, really ruins the game to be all teleported to pit, then everyone stand awkwardly still for 3 seconds before some fuck head nervously fires his gun and then everyone is killing each other.

its using VAC. Not sure if this is a good or bad thing, but either way, it had to mean less hackers

VAC's great, but very delayed, and private hacks will probably get past it.
So yeah. Less hackers.
That guy that attacked our camp was the worst shot though.
He literally had every advantage possible and yet we still escaped.

Is buying Arma 2 and Operation Arrowhead just for DayZ worth it? I've played it on Multi Theft Auto, which was fun for a while but it's just a watered down version that has maybe a ninth of what the original DayZ has, from what I've read.

Haven't played that MTA-version, but it probably doesn't compare at all to the real DayZ. Since DayZ is brilliant largely thanks to the ArmA II-engine.

not at this point imo if you're only interested in DayZ and not Arma
wait for the standalone

Minus the "probably" part. If you love San Andreas, it's awesome for a while, but it loses its flare quickly. The items and weapons are very limited, and a good chunk of the items are useless because they're not finished. I also tried the Gmod version, but it's buttfuckingly laggy.
I was hoping the original would have a very high fun/addiction factor.

It'll be like, weeks if not months until it get released iirc. Mostly I base it from what I've read, but still :v:

This is pretty interesting. Looks like no matter where you would hide your car or heli, someone would fine it.

I don't know, it's going to be months before it's released to the general public.
Found a Huey for a third log on in a [B][I]row[/I][/B] on that island just off the South East coast.
Did the usual, shot all the ammo out of the M240s, broke the tail rotor and drained the fuel tank and left flares everywhere, then looted all the stuff and put them in my trans-dimensional camping tent.

I'm not so excited about it. It's being made by Rocket and he's got the ability to turn his own brilliant ideas into crap. He should have given the job to a pro and resort himself to pointless tweets, the thing he does best.

One thing I hate about the server I'm on is that camps seem to get wiped at random during their random restarts
Granted, you don't even need a camp to get fully equipped quickly on Namalsk, and the only really valuable tool that can't be found everywhere is a toolbox, so it's not too big of a downside.
Does make me sad to think of all the cool guns I've had to leave behind though (I've found no less than 5 NV FALs that are completely useless because it's a daytime server), and it seems every static crash has a bizon
Related to the FAL, why the hell can't it use DMR mags? They're the same caliber and everything, and it just makes having an FAL needlessly more ammo-conservy
people cannot shoot for shit in this game.
Was on top of the firestation at the NW Airfield, get shot at but not hit. Hear talking and it turns out there is about 5 of them, all shooting at me.
Stick my head out and get 3 of them in about 13 shots. run to the bottom floor, go around the fire station and get the other two who were at the bottom.
That geared me up pretty quickly. Got myself an M249 saw, coyote backpack, M24, ghille suit, GPS, NVGs, Rangefinders food, drink, blood bags, morphine, painkillers.
I bet they are pissed.
I can't remember the last time I killed another player.
Well, today I had to as a bandit started shooting at me with an AKM while I was looting a tower at Sebjam Dam in Namalsk.
I couldn't bandage up as I would get shot then but I had accuracy on my side with the bandit having and AKM and me being armed with a Lee Enfield and his shooting getting a lot of zombies after him.
I then managed to shoot him in the legs that led to him getting mauled my zombies and I shot him 2 times in the head just to make sure.
Gotta love how difficult weapon handling is in ARMA2 so it isn't a matter of who can aim down the sights and hold down the trigger.

My problem is that, 9/10 times, when I get killed by another player I'm in 3rd person for awareness and can't switch back to 1rst person in time to shoot accurately, or I'm in a car and can't bail fast enough
I've been working at going along slower and staying in first person more, but as it stands I can never seem to spot people and engage them at med/long range, except with binocs and then I never have a long-range gun to engage with, and at close range it's a crapshoot of whoever is lagging less or manages to get the jump on the other guy

I don't have aimbot aim by any means but I can hit stuff in battlefield, tf2, quake... but I just can't get used to the negative acceleration in arma. Also I tend to over/underestimate the bullet drop and travel speed.
new HDD, hoping for faster loading times in this and shit
will that improve my FPS in cities? at the moment it hangs around at about 30-40, wondering if the HDD improves that
Anyone up for finding a server and playing together? i don't really play DayZ on my own
i was skulkin' around vorkuta earlier and i peeked into one of those little [URL="http://static.dayzdb.com/img/buildings/land_hlidac_budka.jpg"]guard posts[/URL] and i saw a dude lying prone there
he made no movements, so i guess he was either afk or didn't see me somehow
seeing a good opportunity to have some fun, i whip out a frag grenade and toss it in the window
now, this is at most a 10 sq foot building
i wait, and i hear the grenade go off
i look inside, and the guy's just fuckin' unconscious, and not bleeding at all
this badass took a grenade to the face and just got knocked out from it
i wanna meet him

LOL I see some fanboys disagree.
Why is your game so washed out
[editline]23rd January 2013[/editline]
Quit trying to start an argument over something stupid, ratings are opinions don't get upset over it.
I always have the brightness and grammar up to the full because I forget to turn it down after night ends.

no one cares stop trying to start shit
Just seen some guy drive past me in a trabant playing "Drop it like it's hot" from his mic. This game haha
