DayZ Zombie Mod for Arma 2

Roorah

I was playing on a diff server last night and was in electro at night having a look around. Night time raiding is so much easier to avoid zombies. But i walked into one and broke my leg.

Was crawling around for a few minutes when I saw another survivor crawling round. I shouted friendly and then we started talking, she used her last morphine auto injector and a blood bag on me and gave me a pistol. We did a bit more raiding in the houses but then I started lagging. My character dropped a flare at his feet and decided to start running into a wall. She stayed by until the zombies got the better of her. I survived but she sacrificed herself to save me.

Looks like theirs still some good people out there.

Ponster

Anyone close to Electro? I'm in the hospital and really need a transfusion.

My stuff = a compass and some matches. I could respawn but I just hate dieing

Zombies can swim I tried to swim out to sea to escape one, I could no longer hear him chasing me so i turned around and there he was giving it the old Michelle De Bruin after me.

They can climb ladders too. Probably a good idea to stay away from the sea though!

the guys in the heli are only being ass-holes tbh. most people in cherno are there to gear up with semi- low quality stuff and are relatively new to the game.
killing them serves no purpose than "I killed more than you so that makes me cool"

Helicopter on boards?

They're not spawning in this patch

soz was replying to the dude talking about them above. :-)

Zombies have started coming through shut doors again i thought that was fixed.

I had a worse experience, I spent ages crawling through a city only to find one the crawlers coming through a wall so I had no way to avoid it, ended up running for like 20 mins to escape the hoarde, no sooner did I lose one group, another would take up the chase.

Just died in Electro looking for the hospital to help Ponster Though I did find out the axe is fairly handy, if I wasn't bleeding out before I armed it or had an bandages left (used my only one after faling off a ladder :mad: ) I would have survived handily, killed 6 Zombies before the bloodloss got me.

What is barbed wire blocking areas? Sometimes I can step over it, others you can't, doesn't seem to stop zombies though??? They really need to make more houses and buildings open, I can understand fleshing out the city but I have been to small towns with about ten buildings in it, with only 1 shed with a couple of empty tin cans in it, waste of time exploring.

I had literally spawned 20 seconds earlier right next to the sea. Started walking and he spotted me straight away i had a choice to run left into 6 more zombies or go right out to sea. Neither worked

We now have two tractors, Lucutus and FuzzyDunlop might remember something about that.... I believe you're hanging about with a filthy disconnector, but that's just what my friend said. What's up with that base location? I have a few theories about that, it's got to be a temporary base and you pack everything up at night right? or its all the stuff looted from your kills at the AF from one day. I reckon it's all one big trap.

Hi Aaron and welcome.

Yes indeed, I was the first player one in the ghillie suit, had the jump on one of you, and called out on our comms to be sure, got a "yes, that's me back" and turned away, only to be shot in the back. We need to work on our comms, in future I will shoot first and ask questions later!

You are correct about that location, it is a storage area / trap. Players settle into checking tents FULL of loot for long enough to get a decent shot at! Feel free to visit us again and check what's in the tents tonight, 21:30 or so is good!

About 5 minutes, but you have to take everything out of the building.

if you ever go tru Stary and see piles of weapons, ammo, food and tin cans.

it means we were there and took what we needed.

Can you get onto the second floor in a firestation or is it just the tower and the large ground floor room?

Usually a ladder at the back.

Is it possible to ring the church bells or is it just random when they start going off?

FrostyJack

Spawned at Prigorodky and made my way west to Chernogorsk and came across 2 tents beside a pond, I procedeed to check them, even though I thought it was a trap, they were empty There is fire buring in large abandoned building, could someone have just lit it or do fires last hours?

If a backpack is in a pile of loot, you can't pick it up until everything else in the pile is gone. move them to a different spot on the floor, or put them in the bag you are about to drop.

ARGGGHH I just survived a chase through half the city by about 12 Zombies and hid in a building and went up the tower to the top floor, I was about to talk to my first boardsie, think his name was Arthur (we were both unarmed) when we came under fire, I tried to go back down the stairs prone but the character stood up for some unknown reason and I died. I hate bandits!!!!

About bloody time. Really annoying when that happens.

Trapped on a crane at west Elektrozavodsk, right at the dock, 6 zombies below and only have an axe, anyone want to assist?

Edit:

That was not the assistance I was looking for! Why would somebody shoot me with no loot and trapped on a crane? Clowns.
