***Dayz: Stand Alone Thread***

No idea why gametracker keeps losing the server.. Until I get it sorted I wouldn't use gametracker to see if the server is full or not.
 
Well after about 12 of us at XSGamers bought the game we decided to pony up for a server as well :D

I'm a complete Server Admin noob when it comes to DayZ so any points of reference & help appreciated as I like to know WTF I'm doing :D
 
Omfg, I just spawned near elektro and headed to power station. Saw a decked guy running along a hill with a fresh spawn friend. They saw me but I pretended I was just minding my own business and ran the opposite direction, but then cut back up a hill behind them. I saw them stood by a tree and thought, screw it, and charged the armed guy and punched him relentlessly.

He fell on the floor and i looted his M4 and shot him, his friend was trying to punch me the whole time so turned around and popped him too. I got all this within 5 mins of spawning:

Love 1st person view:D,

Makes it far more intense having to check your back for some madman with an axe:p.

Was just checking the Barracks in Balota Airfield and spotted someone heading into the opposite barracks with just a bergen on.

Sorry if it was anyone on here, i wasn't going to shot you, just couldn't tell if you had a weapon or not.
 
First person is pure win, you can take out entire groups on your own as when you kill one the others dont all run to buildings and third person around them to see you. Love it

Killed someone just standing still in a field north of balota, had a some sort of advanced scope for an M1A4. Also a lot of ammo :D
 
Yeah I think I have one of those, I also have a special sniper type scope for distance that i found on a guy. No idea what is is called from memory though.
 
Are there any night owls on here that I could possibly team up with? As a night worker I usually only start gaming after midnight and my gamer mates are switching off at that time.

I just want to give it a chance while teamed up, as on your own it's the most boring game conceivable. Thank God for Epoch though, that'll keep me going for a long time and when they release Epoch on Arma3 I think we'll be laying to rest the standard DayZ bore fest that is the SA.
 
Glad most of you seem to be enjoying first person only. I will probably play it more often now it's on!

I'll post up some correct fovs for different resolutions and how to set it in a few mins! (Although fov and ADS is broken on DayZ currently)
 
Can't believe some people, trying to help a noob who was getting chased by zombie, shot zombie, noob then tried to punch me, ends in me wasting ammo grrr

Yeah mouse can seem a little fast inside buildings I noticed in first person. Apart from that I love it

One huge tip for 1st person, is not to turn your person around, you need to get used to using left alt and turn your head, or go one better and map it to one of your side mouse buttons..

In fact, just spend a few quid and get TrackIR or use a third party app such as headtrackernoir. It's a game changer using trackir.
 
well cant see the server now seemed a bit odd as i just killed a guy with loads of gear and as soon i shot him i lost connection :) still got the gear though :D

just wiped aload out :p clensing the server ;)

I work a mixture of nights and days and sometimes will be around quite late. Feel free to add me, steam id should be the same as my user. I normally play on the MBS server.
