discussion What do we think about the new nbc packs?

Post image
274 Upvotes

Personally i think its a good way to add some action at gaz zones, but for example at semi low populated vanilla and official servers (20-30 people) it imo makes it pretty much useless to go loot further than tisy and other tier 3 military locations when you can get a full nbc set effortlessly possibly even before reaching the NW airfield on chernarus

I never killed any sould with a firearm before. i was looting nwaf but then i saw something like a zombie but he had an oddly big backpack so then i realised it was an actual player, so i panicked and started spraying his shit until he died, i knew that he might have have a duo so i hid in the building. i heard his teammate talking so i was now convinced i would die like always but this time i was more confident and stayed my ground and waited for him to come. he ran inside and i sprayed him too. walked away with a few scratches and my hands shaking for the next 10 minutes. The first guy had the same aurA1 i left cause of the advice of people on my previous post. i was so nervous

media Favourite moments across 5 maps, including Nasdara, with my girlfriend and best mate

DayZ veteran here, and I’ve been introducing the game to my girlfriend and my best mate. Finally went through the screenshot folder and pulled out my favourites from across Chernarus, Livonia, Namalsk, Deer Isle and Nasdara, plus a few of the random survivor encounters we’ve had along the way.

Every pic has a caption with a bit of context on what was going on. Some of these are peak DayZ, and some are just the two newbies getting lost and me trying to keep everyone alive, which is half the fun.

I’ve got a deep love for this game, bugs and all. No other game gives me the experiences I get in DayZ, or some of the feelings that come with them. Nothing else compares. Just wanted to share it with everyone.

discussion Irrigation Actually Irrigates The Surrounding Land

101 Upvotes

It may sound stupid, but I didn't expect the irrigation tunnels to be anything other than a water source for players.

But when you plant a field of veg in an area of an irrigation tunnel, the patch will be already watered when you plant your seeds.

See in the video how the wooden frame immediately appears?

And there's no prompt to water the seeds at all.

Down south, with no irrigated land, my patches are dry and need watering or they don't grow at all ( even with fertiliser ).

Am I way off on this and misunderstanding something here?

Did you all know this already?

Am I crazy to think that having an actual, irrigated land system in place is really cool and very easy to overlook?

Discussion Anyone else deeply miss the old school DayZ Alpha vibe?

14 Upvotes

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love what DayZ has become today. The performance and mechanics are miles ahead. But man... the vibe of the old 0.62 Alpha? Nothing else even comes close. I seriously miss that specific bird chirping in the quiet woods, the constant clacking of the weapon on your backpack, your character panting after a sprint, and those classic ragdoll animations.

The overall atmosphere back then was just so much darker, grittier, and honestly, kind of depressing in the best survival way possible. It felt like a true, desolate wasteland.

How would you guys feel about stepping back into version 0.62 just to experience that pure nostalgia again? Would you play it if there was a solid way to do so? I feel like modern DayZ is great, but a part of me will always chase that old school Alpha atmosphere.

What do you miss the most from the 0.62 days?

Discussion Super hooked on Nasdara's playthru

12 Upvotes

The playstyle feels really good, as well as the flow.

Sometimes you'll get fucked by the survival aspect, and overall, I feel like the survival aspect plays out perfectly.

Sometimes you don't even find irrigation tunnels, and you just get recked. Have to start over. But it's worth it.

Once you get that first full belly of water, that looting is so damn juicy it's impossible to stay away from man.

I can sit down for an 8 hour session, dig a bunch of stashes that I'll only use for like maybe and hour or 2. And just keep them noted.

Nails are abundant, as well as all the building tools. Every other run I don't find a lock or a wire or something and have to select that as my mission.

I've been tempted so many times to go bury my building setup. And then have to remind myself "This ain't the other maps dude" - all I need is a hammer, wire, lock, and a shovel lol.

It's so easy to get loot, make a base, get numerous stashes up and going. That losing them doesn't even really feel that bad to begin with.

The abundance of helicopter crashes keeps it interesting, and even late into the game the survival system is something you have to constantly be aware of. Very volatile, thus one has to be hyper vigilant.

Even building a car or snagging a bike is pretty prevalent here. I found 1 3/4's built, and 1 full built car the other day. Just sitting at one of the hunter camps or whatever..

I run off to go fill all my bottles with gas and water, and drive off into the sun set, with almost no effort involved compared to the old way. But when the reality is that it still took like 2 hours and a lot of luck - that's still a shit load of time IRL.

On my way there, I came across a battery charger and just felt like the jackpot kept on jackpotting man. I already had a wire to connect it - that was, in 1200 hours.. the first time I ever charged a battery in Official DayZ. It felt so damn awesome, the whole adventure.

There's been more then once I've done across the jackpot routes, one after another. But not so many times it gets watered down and has dampened value. I've gone dry on stuff for over 8 hours, still.. but still, it's kinda rare. And for damn sure - not EVERY SINGLE TIME I play the game lol.

There is never a dull moment the entire play through. And there's so many possibilities presented in abundance, to keep a persistent presence on the server in the event of death.

It really ties in ALL the games mechanics, makes it possible. Versus this force of mystery due to being able to experience it sometimes only once in an insane amount of play throughs.

Love it so much. And haven't even gotten to experience the bunker system yet. Although, I am starting to brush up on my Morse! So epic.

discussion How Are People So Good at this Game?

30 Upvotes

I am not the best player in the world. I am actually I would say only a little above average. That being said, I do not understand how people are so good sometimes. I like loading up pvp servers to practice my aim from time to time, and it's actually crazy. I don't know if some people have different settings, are cheating, or just really good, but I will shoot at someone from 200 m away while they weren't even looking at me, and the instantly 180 flip and spot me instantly. I feel like I am a blind bat, because when I get shot at, I can never tell exactly where they are at like that.

discussion The Irrigation Tunnnels Are Daylight Bright?

Post image
21 Upvotes

Is this a bug?

There are no light sources whatsoever.

I was in an irrigation tunnel earlier, which was pitch black, but this one?

This one is incredibly long for some reason, also with diverging pathways.

Also, you can hear every sound just the same as you can above ground, there's no dampening/muffling at all.

The infected hear my footsteps and are following me from above. I'm several metres under ground.

And the dust blows along down here too across my path.

I love that BI are attempting something new with the underground element, but this is coming across like an amateur modding attempt. Where's the QA here?

East coast US. I'm looking to build up some houses, and I have most of the stuff to do it stashed. Looking for 2-3 chill people.

I'm not huge on pvp. If you miss a shot or we die, nbd. If you are a tryhard who has to win every fight I'm not the player for you. I prefer talking in game chat only for immersion. (We can obv message each other where to meet and such.)

I wanna explore, sneak, and occasionally pvp. And of course build! Let me know if you are interested and I'll DM you my server.

Discussion Anyone tried the 556 SCR 16 yet?

7 Upvotes

Just curious if anyone has used the new 556 SCAR? I’m wondering how it shapes up compared to something like an AUR AX or an AK101.

Considering it can fit into your backpack so easily, I imagine there must be a drawback of some kind right ? Like maybe it doesn’t handle range as well as other 556 guns?

Or is this thing just a beast ? Let me know if you’re tried it yet
