/DZG/ - DayZ General

ded

Haven't played since launch. Is it worth reinstalling to see what's up ?

short answer
yes

you need to be able to reset a server

I'm actually quite sure people use teleport hacks to locate crashsites. As always a cheater infested garbagefest-

FUCK U GLITCHER

no you

>not playing on a whitelist server

hacks are ded

>being this assblasted about an alpha stage game

>whitelist servers
I guess that is one way to deal with that. For some reason it's not as thrilling to me desu. I remember logging on dayzmod a couple years back only to find my character kitted out with a infrared l85 and the message " you survived for 450 days" or some shit. There's a certain romanticism to that.
I want to believe.

I don't quite know how to feel about the new UI /dzg/. It is generally nicer but there seems to be delays when trying to put items on the hotbar and I'm pretty sure my rags popped off the bar when I combined two stacks. It also seemed a tad unresponsive/slow when trying to scroll through my inventory. I hate how we now have to drag clothes over what we already had equipped to changes clothes instead of just dragging onto the middle frame. For some reason I also couldn't equip items directly from my inventory.

Are these "normal" issues or could this have just been lag spikes on the server?

with the rise of the beta-preorder games this isn't a argument anymore. Go back to 2010 please.

normal issues.
they're still working on the UI obviously, by the combined the best aspects of the old and the previously new ui

>playing on a whitelist server away from the CoD kiddies and hackers is being assblasted
Alright then.

Obviously not all whitelist servers are nice, but I personally like some light RP and having regulars helps build a sort of server community that isn't completely shoot on sight.

to bad it still it's still a valid argument :^)
if you new anything about vidja game development you'd know it is.

the CoD kiddies and hackers are playing H1Z1 and all the other "survival" games

Then all the reddit-tier neckbeards play this instead. Surprise surprise.

>H1Z1
I thought that was supposed to just be a shittier DayZ that will eventually go F2P.
kids buying those supply drops and crying to the devs because they couldn't git gud was funny as fuck though

YOU SHOT ME, WHAT THE FUCK!?

>fuck up some guy on the second floor of the "guardhouse"(?) building at old NW airfield
>I delivered the killing blow and was upstairs checking out the loot
>unsure whether or not he had friends in the area
>one of us tabs out for some reason
>left clicks the system tray icon to bring dayz back up
>causes him to shoot a round as his screen is coming back up
>everyone starts freaking the fuck out
>I stayed upstairs to scan outside and watch down the stairs so one m4 burst wouldn't down all of us
>team isn't communicating very well
>nobody crosses in front of the stairs, they all stay in the back of the building
>hear "Oh god there he is!"
>frantic gunfire from downstairs
>"oh fuck I'm dead"
>mfw they gunned down one of our team mates
>mfw there was never a second guy
>mfw they managed to fuck up this badly in such a small area
>mfw the dead team member lured a scrub to the building from the coast and one member of my team confused his "target is running to the left" directions and shot me (standing to his right) in the head

...

good times

Good times indeed

git gud

>go to nwaf
>die
>FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

and then they get mad over everything

desu wanted to buy hacks just to take people's drops, but i got beat to it

all me

I DIDNT!

Reminder COMFY

I haven't seen a sedan fucking ONCE for the past weeks I started playing again.

Don't fret they aren't persistent right now. hotfix soon tm.

I feel like there are no hiding spots left in SA.
Mod was much more spacious.

Share some hightier hiding spots :^)

I quite like hanging around the northern cliffs and rock formations and such. Might not be the best hiding places, but shit's comfy as fuck.

I'm hoping that once they eventually get the NBC suits and "radiation zones" implemented there will be larger areas (as in not just a military base) that require protection to survive in. Living in the zone air filter to air filter scavenging off dead scrubs who couldn't into preparation would be the shit.

I hope that after they implement the "radiation zones" they decide to make more areas of the map have gear requirements, such as a high snowy mountain range that requires warm clothes to not freeze to death.
It's weird how we have winter hunting pants but literally no snow anywhere ever

I would call that less of a hiding spot and more of a fortified clan base.
At least until boats get added

>tfw comfy before fireplaces

>tfw ded thread

Use natural terrain to hide shit it's not rocket science. 1000 hours in ms paint

>that one blue speck north of elektro
Is that the dam? Why is the dam a desirable/safe spot? yes you have water but that's right beside the road near the edge of a dangerous city.
Is this map taking into account the recent rework of all those cities?

ancient screenshot

Well myshkino should be red, and also there should be blue around the mountain edge in the south east. I didn't exactly spend time on it,

what is that red circle in the middle of the ocean?
are there sharks?

This was barrels of fun

scary times in dayz

this man looks familiar

convicted pedohpilep

Is that a native from Da lost toof clan?

So I know Reddit has their pleb server, but does /dzg/ have a server?

So are the servers down while they push an update or something?

They're usually always down around this time 8-11 CEST.

on Wednesdays, that is

Right. My bad.
I have brought shame upon my famry
