Thank you for this kaeruzo.

We should all try this and use it whenever. Though it does take time to setup initially, the TS features way outweigh what we are using for voice comms at the moment.

Previously only the M4 is able to switch to single fire mode. But since there is no indication what firing mode it is in unless you test fire it.

Nice session, no desync for me at all. A little lagged out though.

I was thinking about nasiru after we logged. He was the only one that was out of our range of help if he got ambushed... hehehe risks of being a scout/sniper.

Yes I thought of it too, but then people can hear you talking from your location as well unless you are in a forested area where no one will walk by.

Potential to confuse an enemy chasing you. Drop a WT in a house, wait in opposite direction of door, wait for him to open door where he thinks the (louder) sound is coming from.

Ellen Page? Hehe called it when I saw her in Juno.

But X-Men time she super hot.

Enjoyed myself last night, thanks for the group guys.

I think I fixed 3 ppl with broken legs yesterday. Haha those wood n rags really came in handy.

haha it's ok man. Its not like you were playing a fool and purposely pushed me or anything. It is Alpha after all.

If we want to find uniform, sure very hard to sync everyone since a lot of us. So far no pants work because everyone can do it easily, next is possibly no shirt, but if we kena tembak sure mati easily. No shoes is best because we can run fine without footwear but it's hard to identify since our feet are normally covered by grass. So most of the time, identification becomes a problem.

Another possible way is color coding for our outfits. Common color in this game is green/camo/black/red etc.

Can consider green top/black bottom as an outfit uniform. like Bottom black jeans/cargopants, top TTsKO jacket/green hoodie. It's common enough to find, just need to get the coding right.

Headgear (anything since this is for protection except motor helmet since it covers the face)
No masks, no shades, no helmets (clean face, as most players like to put on something except new spawns)
Greenish top ( no tactical gear or UK black assault vest, so either ttsKO jacket, green hoodie, green raincoat, olive jacket etc) Easy to find.
Black/dark bottom (jeans cargo pants, tactical etc.) Easy to find.
No shoes.

Ok will try this look tonight.

Problem with no headgear is, you tend to get knocked out earlier if a new spawn punches you.

Newbie tip:
Don't trust anyone and don't get used to your stuff.

Anyway, had a great time this afternoon with the 'day' shift in Balota. Too bad I died... haiz 3rd person M4 spray not working as intended, super inaccurate even within 5 metres. Though I did made the fella unconcious, I died in the process when he had time to shoot me. If it was 1st person view, he sure would have no time to shoot back.

Oh and Balota is a hive of activity even in 20man servers. Including us and the ppl we killed and the group that came after us, I think total 4 groups of 2 to 4 ppl.

Yes very essential. You can direct comms with ppl ingame.

Most people tend to shoot people who don't respond quickly. Because they think you are stalling.

Our LYN group use TeamSpeak as well, if you don't have mic, you can't really do much other than listen to us ramble.
Chat in game is impossible as it will also show what you are typing to other strangers. We can't check steam chat while we are 'fighting'.

So yes, it is essential.

Malaysia mosquito zombies quite bad. Get well soon man.

Yeah I kena before last time as well. Sick for like 5 days before doing blood check and admitted to hospital for another 5 days of stay in the gov hospital. I still remember the general ward had like 2 prisoners there as well with handcuffs to the bed and guards. Kind of funny in the middle of the night, these fellas can smoke in the ward while their guards tidur.

I actually not bothered about Dean leaving.

DayZ mod evolved without him quite well. As long as the base game is complete, the game will eventually keep changing whether he is still creative director or not.

I didn't buy the game because of him.

Will be hard to get everyone black.

Yesterday played Hardcore server. Was alone in the server, really had to get used to the 1st person view all the way. Was at Balota at the ATC when someone else logged in, he logged in right in front of me. Haha, 1 shot to the head when I saw him taking his weapon out. He really had bad luck, log in a hardcore server with only 1 person and happen to spawn right in front of me haha.

But I like hardcore server due to 'less' glitching possibilities. But very little HC servers available and most of the time empty.

Yeah we should meet up in Balota. See if we can have fun in HC server as regular.

Quite a few of us already geared up and are in or near Balota.

Oh and thanks for saving me guys yesterday after I got shot unconscious. Thought I was a goner for sure.

Me being a noob, I was using a badly damaged gloves all the while.

Then I found and changed to a Worn condition one, WOW. The ACOG sight stability really improved.

So don't use damaged gloves, it will mess with your aiming.

I brought it up in Reddit, some say yes some say no.

I also confuse now. Later I try again to find a badly damaged gloves and compare.

Because only 2 things changed after I was dead yesterday. I used better gloves and I was not wearing ballistic helmet. The rest was the same including the gun and condition of my character was both healthy.

And my aim when calm was much better after I died, before that, I could not keep my ACOG on you guys in the construction yard because it was too shaky. After I died, the 'drifting' of the cross hair was so minimal.

Same. I like the initial tense moments of looting and the joy of finding stuff. Once you're equipped, it's kind of boring because you already have everything you need and there is no point but wait to get shot at or die so can start the process over.

I'm thinking of ditching the backpack for a leaner look. I realized our character profile is reduced significantly when you don't use a backpack. Any advice?

SKS and Fire/Splitting axe(whichever is concealed).

Max slots is without backpack is 20.

TTsKO jacket 6 slots : Rice, canteen, rags(6), can opener
Cargo pants 6 slots : 20 rounds of SKS bullets (2), Saline IV, compass
Assault vest 8 slots : 2x SKS 10 rnd clip, protector case (morphine, bandage, EpiPen, ?? ), spare, spare.

Seriously what else do we need once we are Hydrated and Energized.

If we get shot at, we got rags for bandage with rice and water to get back to healthy.
60 rounds of spare ammunition not including the one in the gun.
Morphine and extra bandage in protector case in case your rags are ruined in firefight.

Am I missing something that is critical?

Haha normally fully equipped persons are killed 1st. The rest without backpacks will look like newbies haha.
