Day Z mod for ARMA II

[cmp]

3rd person? Ewwwwww.

[Xant]

3rd person is OK; but crosshair and nametags? Eww.

[cmp]

I never had either, does it depend on the server?

[Weren]

Yes.

[Xant]

Funnily enough, with crosshair on the high-power sniper rifles become the best CQB weapons as well.

The regular servers are becoming absolutely unplayable. I cant even sneak up on people/lay low half of the time without them being able to slide their crosshair over me doing god damn terrain scans. It can even let you know when a person is behind certain walls our bushes. Zeroing in is also absolute baby mode easy since it gives you the ranges of your targets. Ive found a few third person servers that have taken off the crosshairs and name tags though, which is great.

We've mostly just been playing on Veteran servers because of this. We only go on regular if we really can't get in any vet servers. It seems the majority of EU servers are regular which I don't understand. For a mod which prides itself on hardcore mode realism, crosshairs and seeing players names even when you scroll over a bush 100m away really reduce the difficulty immensely.

I'd like it if you could scroll over a person from about 30m and see there name tag, or a tag that you could customize for people. As it stands now you never know if the person you are looking at is a person you saw before which is quite annoying, hopefully the custom skins will fix that shit somewhat.

True we had a rather confusing event today on the airfield in the control tower. Originally me and Lorenzo were both in the tower, then he went out to check things out whilst I stayed to camp. I heard someone come in then looked down the stairs to see someone checking out the equipment pack. A few seconds of frantic confused questioning of Lorenzo occurred before I realised it wasn't him and shot the guy

Yeah, totally something like this. Nameplates only in a fairly close range, if at all, to help people actually party up while direct is being wonky.

And Karma, shiiiit. I swear I saw MangoDice back in Dallas 1 yesterday or the day before, did they change out of Regular to Veteran, boi?

[Darkkarma]

Nah man, I usually play there since grey likes to play in normal servers. When im on my own im usually up north in a hardcore server!

[Havoco]

Dallas 6 is veteran mode. Hospis usually play on that since one of our members is an Admin for that one.

[Goldor]

I like to play on Dallas 1 (Made good friends with server owners/major power there by helping save there asses in a major firefight, so always have some back-up/friendlies on to play with. If I'm not playing there I'm either in a Virgina Server or one of the Denmark servers.

[Malaclypse]

You'll almost always find me in Chicago 1 Original or Chicago 1 Blues, both hosted by Mojo and Owl, both veteran servers; either those or US Hardcore 1-4.
