I love that. I would love to get good enough at this to do that but I'm terrible!

Maybe I'll get together with you guys this weekend, if I can make it somewhere near your vicinity without dying first.

Dying is fun! At least, it's fun when you (once again) do something against your better judgment (e.g. only wait 5 minutes before looting a freshly killed bandit) and then get killed. Well, I guess that's fun when you end up on the coast with TWO GODDAMN BOATS.

Did I mention that dying and finding a boat was infinitely more fun than unloading an entire STANAG mag into someone? A BOAT.

Even better was taking the PBX (zodiac raft thing) and finding a "small boat" to use once the gas ran out on the PBX.

So far, my vehicle experience has been bicycles and boats, not sure which I love more yet.

All that said, I'm sure to be dead on the coast again tonight, so jump on and we can attempt to not die together.

Why not set up your mic to mirror your speaker output, double-tap capslock, and ride around blasting Floyd via the in-game VOIP?

For some reason FRAPS was only recording super-short segments. I'm going to have to change the default "video start/stop" key to something else -- it looks like F9 brings up that side menu, which may then kill the video when I hit backspace. Not really sure.

At any rate, here's my shitty Pink Floyd -- DayZ video.

In other news, Rocket is asking the forums what they want in a standalone DayZ as far as sales model, etc. goes.

weak.  Heartbreak

It's probably because I used the entire song. The video itself is me just kinda riding on the coast, then going into a city. It's pretty boring until the end where I pan back and there's a horde of zeds behind me right as the song gets quiet and you can hear the shrieks.

So probably no big loss that EMI pwned my copyright violation.

I'm up at Green Mountain right now. It's a confusing place. The map makes it look as if there's two enterable buildings, but I can only seem to get up in the radio tower. From the looks of things, there's generally an ATV and a car that spawns up here.

You need to get outta there, man. Bad shit goes down at Green Mountain.


The military spawn is actually not an enterable building, just the little alcove next to the pile of rotting bodies.

I think we're gonna try to make it to Zub for the meetup, but wherever works.

I keep seeing this "bad shit goes down at Green Mountain" thing, but never any specifics. Aside from the massive and quick to repop zombie spawn, I'm not sure what to make of it.

Well, personally I was there clearing mad spawns and getting no loots...I was just turning to leave and SNAP. Broken leg. No zombies anywhere.

I, luckily, had some morphine and got the fuck outta there. From what I've heard, I got off easy. Just get outta there, man!

http://www.pcgamer.com/2012/08/07/dayz-being-developed-as-a-standalone-game-this-is-the-end-of-the-beginning/

Quote
“That’s right, this is actually happening,” reads a tweet from the official DayZ dev twitter feed. “DayZ will be developed as a standalone game.” A post on the DayZ site from Dean “Rocket” Hall announces that DayZ is going to become a full game, and he’ll be heading up development as lead designer.

“Development and updates of the mod will continue in parallel with the development of the game, so anyone who is playing the mod now will be able to continue to do so. The project will follow the Minecraft development model; fast iterations with the community alpha available for a heavily discounted price,” he explains.

Hmm, having shelled out for ARMA II already, I can't see myself paying again.

I linked Rocket's forum post up above somewhere in regards to the standalone.

The fact that one of the models he was considering was monthly sub with initial box cost was a bit  swamp poop.

I can see that running servers can get a bit expensive, so either a standalone needs to have much larger servers or it needs to have some kind of tools to protect users from idiot admins running private servers.

In a perfect world, I wouldn't mind seeing people able to host their own sandboxes, with no ability to play the sandbox characters on "official" servers.

So what is War-Z then?  Just a rip-off attempt?  I never looked into it and thought maybe it was their stand alone game they were working on.

MMO ripoff I guess. Competition is good, though!
