should come play armII dayz with us (chuck, biggie, cableguy, kicken, karl, taylorG, devin, whereyouataustin?)

you need arma2 and arm2 operation arrowhead to play this mod steam has a package called arma2 combined operations that saves you 10 bucks

imagine being lost with a group of autistics in a zombie apocalypse with biggie running out of a tree line yelling "idiot?" with 40 zombies behind him kiting them in your direction

yea man bunch of people play in our vent in the evenings (me, chuck, cableguy, taylorg, biggie, devin, lowcarb, and some others that don't play dod)
TX2.LeetVent.com 4136
and if you go into your inventory by pressing G look at your axe and right click and remove from toolbelt, its a little bugged right now so you have to press R to reload it to start swinging it
we robbed and executed some people that had a convoy, devin made a little stupid video of us doing it.

I've been playing this. I've only ventured to the northwest airfield once with a buddy. He got himself an m16 acog, then we stayed around too long and got rolled by an AS50 from like 500m away while in the treeline of the western barracks. Game rocks though, maybe I'll hop on your vent sometime.

so anyway, the premise looks interesting...is this game based in the grounds of reality? Cause it looked cool up until he shot that guy up with a whole clip point blank..

Elaborate more on the game, please

you start near the shore with pretty much nothing but a bandage and some pain killers, your objective is to is to loot what you can (canned foods/different drinks) its always good to find medical supply (blood bags for transfusions/morphine/bandages/painkillers) so pretty much everything to keep your guy in good health, after you get some items that is if someone hasn't robbed you and stole your shit players make their way inland and venture off to find military camps ect for military grade weapons some items are harder to find than others (night vision/gillie suits/suppressed weapons) we usualy gear up to this point and kill those who are trying to do what we just did or shoot kids trying to make their way into the most obvious loot spots (grocery stores/schools/hospitals/churches) but that doesn't last for long because biggie ends up shooting us on accident.

the whole clip getting unloaded was just bad timing the server crashed seconds after it had like 50 people in it. based on other games like counter-strike its just a realistic as them as far as how many bullets it takes to kill someone in good health.

Weapon damage is ultra realistic like Arma 2. Most sniper rifles kill in one shot. My M16 that I currently have kills in 3-4. The big problem that comes up is that you can bleed, which causes you to slowly lose blood. You start with 12k blood, and if it falls below 9k, you have a chance to get knocked out. Below 3k, you will randomly pass out. Only way to get blood back is to either receive a transfusion from another player or eat food (which only restores 300 for a can of beans or 800 for a cooked steak made from animals you kill).

Also, zombies can make you bleed, and players can break your legs with bullets (meaning you can only crawl). You need morphine to fix broken legs, and it's only found in hospitals or medical tents or on dead players. The zombie apocalypse is a bitch :D

thanks for info, much appreciated. I see a few other new games coming out that are like this. I dunno if there was anything like this before, but it seems it's its own genre now. Cool stuff

Tenks, this is a third party mod that's still in development. Slightly boring solo, but I'm sure it's fun as hell with a group. Until you get something to protect yourself with, plan on crawling everywhere to avoid grabbing 40 zombies. The only gripe I have is that the zombies move entirely too fast, but you can lose one by going prone and crawling around a fence or through a small, bushy tree. I'm still learning the inventory side of it though.

BTW, how the hell do you swap to third person!?!?! I couldn't find it in the menus.

TBH the zombies aren't that bad. You can also ditch aggro a lot easier by running into a building. Zombies cannot run inside buildings. If there's a separate exit just run out that one and you will be clear. You can get an M1911 or a revolver pretty easily and they kill zombies in one shot, or just aim for the head. You could also just run next to another player and drop your aggro on them lol.

I'm killing every mother fucker I come across now. I was outside a barn killing a couple zombies with my ax, and talking to a guy I saw run inside. So I run in after killing the fucks and this bastard takes about 15 sec to aim at me with his shotgun, and then proceeds to shoot me and break my legs. Then his gun clicks and he whips out his pistol and finishes me off.

Next time I will be murdering...

That is why we roll with a group in vent and kill everyone else we see. Someone you think is helpful will turn around and shoot you in the back to get that nice shiny .50 cal you have. TBH I would have shot you too....it's safer to just kill and move on than have to watch your back 24/7.

Yeah, you pretty much have to kill everything you see. When they had special skins for PK'ers everyone bitched about getting it through self-defence against actual bandits, then getting shot on sight by survivors they had no intention of harming. But now _everyone_ gets shot on sight because you have no clue who the bandits are, even the "fake" ones. Some improvement.

It's tough to ride solo, too, even when you're geared up a bit. Once you get in a group of 4 or 5 or more you're in pretty good shape; that's enough for a sniper and spotter team to overwatch, a sentry to check their flanks and a few others to raid the town/city/airfield/camp.

I have this, didn't know that the dod community had such a big group goin on. i know sloth plays it as well. Games awesome if you are thinking about buying it, very very addicting. One problem though is the feel of the game, very different and takes a little getting used to. Worth the 20$ i paid on for it on steam.

Just keep in mind that it is a mod for a military simulator. You won't be getting CoD-like gameplay. You will however get satisfaction in taking out other players using group tactics, maneuver, and communication. Most of the time people will actually die when you light them up, regardless of which gun you are using. One of the most common guns (the Lee-Enfield bolt action) kills in one shot. The question you have to ask yourself before using it is: do I really want to attract every zombie in a 2 mile radius by using it :lol:

haha yea i see whats going on here it takes some getting use to, the zombies agro like crazy if you make any kind of noise around them and im sure youve ran into a few buildings that didnt have working doors ect...axes/maps/guns will spawn on the ground usualy inside building or sheds in the corners. Hop in our vent its in one of the previous posts you can run around with us and kinda pick things up as we go along

this will help

Crouchwalk / prone will help in avoiding them, as well as using weapons that make less noise. As for maps, you have to loot a map in order to use it. Same applies to watches, compasses, GPS, NVGs, matches, hatchets, knives, etc. Hatchets are typically found in industrial areas. Common weapons can be found in the grocery store, barns, military tents, and residential areas. Military grade weapons (ie. M16s, AKs, etc) are found in military tents and airfields.

When you are first spawning, most people will go to the main cities like Cherno or Elektro to gear up. It's possible to head up north and hit up the smaller towns, but you will be taking a big risk without having plenty of medical supplies, food, water, and a decent weapon. These can all be found in the two cities I mentioned. Failure to acquire morphine will result in an unforseen broken leg in the middle of bumfuck egypt and only being able to crawl.

EDIT: http://dayzdb.com/map <--- if you have a second monitor or a tablet (or hell, even a phone, theres an app for that) you can use this while you play. Alternatively, you can alt-tab, but that may take awhile.

Look what I found.

http://thewarz.com/index.html

Looks like they took DayZ and changed some aspects. Been in the works for a year I believe. Should be kinda fun due to the fact that you can group easily with friends, and its free to play after the initial purchase.
