Edit: couldn't find you.
My bad. In-game I'm eltname. Somehow. In Steam I'm cyoaI also researched rifles and it would seem for now the standalone version is pretty limited in terms of sniping. The long range scope twinned with a bipod on a Moisinseems the best option I've experimented with. All readily available at the big airport. I've had a bit of amusement sitting on top of the air traffic control tower making a lot of noise and seeing how far I can hit z's from. Not very far is the answer.
As for disappointment at how 'easy' it seems. Yeah, a bit. But I think as it moves from Alpha to Beta to release it'll balance out. I think the biggest challenge players will face will be social, so busy servers are key to tension. Currently I've been finding empty servers to practise on which are basically Left 4 Dead sims on a big map. Of course the fact that you could basically fall down a flight of steps and die at any moment keeps you on your toes.

So, after having to crawl for hours due to a broken leg I finally found a zombie to kill me. Dire times.
Close to binning it off when I bumped into someone and we teamed up. Next thing I know 2 fully kitted up guys appear from the bushes asking if we need any help. They are fully kitted up, look like marines/sas. They point us in the right direction but say they won't be walking with is but will be keeping an eye on us, to help. After a 20 min run we get to where they told is to go and they pop out the bushes again, "congratulations on getting this far..." -

And, still couldn't find you? I'm Eight armed pet on steam... Maybe it'll work for you.
Also, had fun knocking zombies out last night. Kinda frustrating though as sometimes they are really easy and you can spend all day doing it without taking a hit then 1 in 50 won't go down and somehow kills you in one hit...

You'll need to bring your Wii u + 8. It is a HD projector after all.
Tempted to organise a tournament...

Are you guys playing on normal or hardcore servers? (Hardcore is 1st person only)
I had the day off yesterday so played some in the day, fell off a cliff and broke my leg and spent the next two hours crawling around to find a stick to use a splint. Lesson learned, always carry a stick and some bandages or some morphine because crawling around for hours sucks balls. -

Sorry, wasn't making myself clear... I meant that using the Wii U gamepad your kart starts skidding as if you'd pressed the L or R hop button on a SNES pad, know what I mean? It put me right off... Will have to give it another go but it felt like they'd somehow tweaked the controls and ruined it in the process...
Right, got you. The gamepad isn't the greatest for VC stuff. I actually have the reissue SNES controller that plugs into a Wii remote… the buttons aren't quite the same but it still feels great.

They did it as a Club Nintendo stars catalogue reward, it took quite a few stars I can tell you… There are usually a few on eBay but it would probably be cheaper to use an original SNES controller and get one of these:

Look forward to playing day z with you guys we can all find a time and team up. Could be fun?
This is how tooled I got from killing 2 guys who I think were AFK in a house. I was unarmed and punched them both down. Killed one picked up a gun and shot the other guy - felt bad for about 10 minutes.
This character then became my roam and socialize. Any one who didn't talk back I killed.
Anyway this guy is gone now and I'm now back to a new player - hungry and weaponless!

How do you talk? via microphone?
-
• #11520
yep - or you can type.
I'd like to add - how tooled up I am there was by complete luck - no way would I get that lucky again and the poor bugger I killed was probably searching for hours and hours to find all that.

How do you see chat channels? Can't figure it out. Have tried talking on Global channel to just berate a guy who snuck up on me in an airport and shot me but got no response.. In fact I don't think I've had any actual communication with other players.
This last guy wounded me but I got away. However when I logged back in to a different server all my gear was ruined for some reason - maybe the server was running an experimental release? A bit gutting. Up for an LFGSS night ride.

Wait. You login to different server with the same character?
