Re: (Project Horizons Comment Crew) Day Z

[Ketchup]

That would be an interesting experience, and I am considering going with you if possible. It would be fun, but in all likelihood, I'd die and lose my rare-ish stuff. Hard choice.

Regardless, I can supply you if you want it.

[IncoherentOrange]

I have a mic and Skype now; I can communicate.

[Katarn]

@Kipp
Oh, you.
Yeah, I proposed yesterday to Kipp to run from south point of map to the north. Using main road, which lead through Cherno, Electro and to Berezino.

[Katarn]

I've found good program, called Day Z Commander. Really helpful.

[Ketchup]

My brother and I went on a deserted US day server, and went to Stary Sobor. We used up our morphine on the way. Then a zombie broke bro's leg. We called on these guys to help, and one came and patched him up. It was great. We gave him our antibiotics and some DMR ammo for his trouble.
We found 2 AK-74s, 4 R870s, and an M1014 at Stary, the only thing we wanted there was a grenade, really. We also found 2 CZ 550s in one barn, so I have 4 magazines for it.

[Kippershy]

Currently sitting on a rooftop not far (within sight) of south cherno.

Got no real goal so I've stopped for the moment, though getting my health back to 12k sounds good. (gone from 5k to 8k now, so that's some improvement!)

The supermarket has proven exceptionally useful, providing me with a winchester 1886, m1911, watches galore, maps, ALICE bags, lots of food, waaaaaaaayy too much soda, just about everything really.


got something like 8 mags for my 1911 and 3 for the 1886

[Ketchup]

I've got 4 bloodbags, I can head southwards from Stary and come to help at a rendezvous point, If this suits you. Got plenty of meat, too.
Raiding the hospital would be quicker, but not safer. I do need some morphine, however.

Just got back from a camping trip, got less than 5 hours of sleep. Fun, though.

[Ketchup]

We found a copter crash site. A Bison, which we then dumped after I sniped a few cows. And a bunny, in the head, 200 meters. We now have lots of meat and 2 morphine, which we found in Stary.

We had a misadventure when I was throwing chemlights. I had 2 grenades, and I almost killed my brother and concussed myself. But, it turned out fine in the end, we had bloodbags.

[IncoherentOrange]

The bumbling throw-happy buffoon was jelly that I found an M4A3 CCO, so I gave him some frag grenades to make him happy. That was a mistake. Not that he hadn't gotten over the fact that he didn't have my M4, it was merely a coincidence that he happened to almost kill me with his frag grenade. Anyway, I currently have tons and tons of meat. Dumped the Bizon because it was impractical.

[Katarn]

If you want to get military-grade equipment, find some empty (really empty) server, go to airfield north from Vybor. There loot long building (near strip, behind trees), then loot fire station and com-tower. Repeat until you get what you want. Note. A. LOT. OF. ZOMBIES. Military zombies, so axe or use silenced weapon. BTW, if you have SD ammo (it's 'silenced' ammo) you can use it with regular (not silenced) weapon.

[Ketchup]

I've got one magazine of M9SD for my PDW, and we have been using the empty servers to loot Stary. We are currently at Little Hill at the moment.
We had originally planned to go to the infamous NWAF when we went to Stary, but we ran out of morphine and had to abort. We will try again though.

[Ketchup]

My rifle glitched out of my backpack, and it duped my shotgun instead. -_-
I did find 2 boxes of matches though, in my backpack now.
Currently planning to head North from Pop Ivan.

[Katarn]

Meanwhile in ArmA 2

[Ketchup]

...
What.

[Ketchup]

We made it to the NWAF on a night server. Bad news is, graphical glitch from static dead bodies cause it to become virtually unplayable.

[Ketchup]

Stuck at NWAF, bleeding in barracks. We can escape. I think...

We both have M4A3 CCOs that we picked up at Stary and I found a G17 at Pop Ivan. Nothing too valuable at the airfield though, just a bunch of STANAGs and 2 each of M16A2s and MP5s. Lots and lots of tin cans. Bro got a Coyote Backpack at Stary, too.

[Katarn]

While you trying to survive in Day Z, they party hard in ArmA 2

[IncoherentOrange]

I loot the barracks in the airfield to find a huge pile of STANAG magazines, and in an adjacent pile, an ammo box of STANAG magazines.

As I got there, I noticed to my delight that I had found nine STANAG SD magazines. Now the zombies shall never hear our cool guns. We're now on a hill south of the airfield, not risking going back for a while; we have what we need and want, the M4A3 CCO is a kickass weapon. Excellent sights for headshots, a flashlight, and it looks cool.

[Ketchup]

Already found that. Interesting.

[Katarn]

Gah...If you want. On FR 58 in the Kamenka might be 2 heavy trucks full of good loot. Me and my friends catched dc, while driving there. I'd appreciate if you find them and get them somewhere safe. If you find them (one is blue, with covered back and other is green with open back) you can loot from there whatever you want. I'd try to be here, until server will be up, but it's less likely to happen. They might be on crossroad Kamenka/Pavlovo.

[Ketchup]

Coyote Backpack acquired.

[Ketchup]

Dumb fabric game, transporting me to the shore from the NW area while logging in. We were just about to raid Vybor, too!

[Ketchup]

A new hotfix is coming out.
It appears this thread died. Shame.

[Katarn]

Well. I'm not playing right now (maybe will be later), IIRC Kipp stopped playing, since he wants/needs to write his fic.

[Ketchup]

Do you have any vehicles anymore? Or did they get lost?

I just got in contact with someone who needed help near me, but when he logged in he got flung across the map.

[Katarn]

Server were wiped and now it's not FR 58, it's LU383. So yeah, they gone. But what was on me, left on me.

[Ketchup]

Good, it appears the database server is unstable at the moment, too.

[Kippershy]

Yup, at the moment I'm taking time off for my fic.
Going to be working on it in 2 seconds, even.

Once I've released chapter thirteen, I may have another go on Day Z, but until then, no play.
At least I'm back up to 12k health, 2 guns, ALICE pack and all essentials.

[Ketchup]

Take your time anyway, DayZ has been a really wonky platform recently.
Good luck on chapter 13.
