Day Z mod for ARMA II

[Malaclypse]

The one thing I would love to see go is the constant spam of connect/disconnect messages that clutters up a quarter of the screen 

Those were completely gone too! The only time any message of that nature came up was error messages given when people couldn't join.

DMR is the best sniper.

DMR is the best sniper.

I think I like the SVD more, that is the one with the sizing deal on the left hand of the scope right?

What's so good about it?

I was just in Balota, got some good shit but the server crashed. When I joined a different server, it spawned me in the middle of the fucking sea. Had to respawn, losing all my gear in the process. DAFUQ?!?!?!

[Overdriven]

Sea spawn is the new debug forest. That and random wilderness. Happened a couple of times to me and unfortunately no way to get around it.

[Spleen]

I always spend hours getting to our savespot in zub and on the next login I always spawn on the left side of elektro...I hate that fucking beach there by now

[Phyrex]

So... spawning on the beach, no water left I believe, got some food left with both food and water meter blinking. What's the best course of action? Running into the woods and get back to that place once I'm dead(And get all my stuff) or get some backup to my location(which I'm not entirely sure where that is).

When you respawn it should tell you where you are on the bottom right of the screen. Use a combination of the main map: http://ttp2.dslyecxi.com/images/chernarus_big_hq.jpg

And the loot locations map: http://www.teamfackin.com/moocow/dayz/map/

Find the nearest water pump and get there fast. Either that or find a supermarket/apartments and get some soda. I'm not sure how long you can last with out water when it's blinking. Problem is if you let yourself die you may spawn on the opposite side of the map.

You can also fill your water bottle in ponds/rivers if you walk to the waters edge (no need to swim like you used to have to).

What I really hate about DayZ is that you get hungry and thirsty even though you are offline.

It just sucks for persons like me who play maybe every third or 4rd day only.Feels Brosergame-ish.

/edit: Also, you CAN go on fairly long if your water is blinking.At least an hour or so.It will be enough to get something to drink in any case.

So spawn... check location, log back out immediately, wait for backup with food and water for me and login when they are close. Sounds like a plan.

after you resspawn you can get basic food/water/weps/equip all by yourself - preferabbly in hotter zones like balota airstrip/cherno/electro, there is almost no risk involved as you can't loose anything except for your miserable life and a few beans. of course after you get some basic equip it is the other story, then i rather move to the north where chances for survival are way higher (especially if i manage to get matches, i immediately leave coastal areas for good )

imo smaller coastal villages are not that much of your interest, considering the risk/time/number of zeds they don't offer that much. personally i prefer military camp at balota for guns and cherno for other equipment (church/hospital/supermarket and a few buildings you get to on your way). after that you usually have all you need (usually except the matches...)

have i mentioned matches?

[Vibe]

you need matches ffs, dont forget them 

no seriously, what exactly do you need matches for?

wood + matches = fireplace to raise temp or cook meat

[Bjord]

I'm buying Arma II and Arrowhead in 2 weeks, any cRPG guys running a merry band of pillagers and rapists yet? Would be cool to have an all-cRPG gang(and of course root out people we don't like ) and roam the zombie apocalypse like in TWD!

[rufio]

only prob with a big group is you cant easely distinguish friend from foe untill you get different looks that are similar, witch then again is very hard to achieve.
