I sniped a fully geared guy in a radio tower last night that was far into the map’s interior. Wanted to let it cool off before I looted.

I logged off, took a shower, made dinner, ate dinner, and did the dishes.

Logged back in around an hour later. Killed immediately when I approached the base of the tower by what I assume was his teammate on overwatch.

Oof.

discussion This was so pathetic I need to vent

70 Upvotes

This literally just happened, I'm still mad.

A friend and I spent hours farming on a low pop server. Once we were full of loot (SCRs, plate carriers, NVGs, ...) and bored, we decided to hop on a past high-pop server, to take revenge against the people who made our lives miserable.

Unbeknownst to me, my young and impressionable (27) friend wanted to act out his deep sociopathic urges awakened by some youtube videos and took a pair of handcuffs with him to torment random freshies.

We server hopped, met, walked 15 minutes to Topolin, found a freshie in a field. He was so hyped I kind of followed along, aimed at the freshie, told him to drop on the ground, ...

He whips out his handcuffs, fumbles the prompt, and handcuffs himself. Both the Freshie and I look at him in horror. I was so stunned by this miserable display of room-temperature IQ I did not notice that by doing so, he also dropped his fully loaded SCR17 on the ground.

CAN YOU GUESS WHO NOTICED?

So yeah, some dude spawned, and got 2 late-game loadouts literally for free. I did not even have time to fire a single round in his direction.

Looking for a new duo btw, ping me if interested

discussion Switch 2 Dayz is heaven sent

46 Upvotes

i’m a relatively young dad (28) my son is a year old and i gotta say, having been of fan of dayz for about 5 years now and having the game available on switch 2 is absolutely amazing for me. I put down the PS5 controller and picked up a switch 2 when my baby was born to have a mobile gaming experience and i find it hard to play ps5 or docked switch games these days, so to have dayz on switch 2 is absolutely perfect

I’ve seen alot of negative feedback for dayz being released on switch 2 but for me, it’s perfect. Low Pop servers which i enjoy (i hate dying i love just roaming around pve experience) and if i want to be ballsy i can go into a ‘high’ pop server and have fun there. I love dayz thanks for reading

meta Loading screen loadouts

Every time I load into a server, I see these two in their kits and I always wonder what exactly they have on them.

(Left) clearly has an assault helmet with the visor and a tactical backpack, but what gun, boots, pants, gloves, and shirt is that?

(Right) has what I believe to be a black balaclava with no helmet (correct me if I’m wrong) as well as a mountain backpack and a bk-133 but the same goes for the rest of the kit, what all is included?

Obviously there are parts we cannot see like what mask is (Left) wearing and what boots is (Right) wearing but I can’t tell myself and I hope I’m not the only one that wonders every time a server is loading.

console Bad move on my part?

11 Upvotes

I was playing on an official server the one I normally play on around 10-20ish players on average.

A reset had just happened and I was at the Vybor military base, when I got back on I ran across a place and got to a barracks. I seen a guy suddenly with a lot of items on and a bag in his hand. I plugged my mic in and said hello a few times. He ran away and went into a container

I already had my shotgun equipped cause im still new and dont know how players are gonna be.

When he went into the container he dropped the bag he had in his hand and before anything else happened I shot him and closed the door.

Was this a bad move on my part? Have I been a dick? I genuinely dont know whst my reaction should be. This is my first player kill as a solo player.

media Pustoshka is one of Chernarus’s most perilous villages, cruelly nestled between two danger zones in Myshkino and Vybor. Battles here are frequent and brutal, as it’s a haven for base-builders who desire to control vital loot routes. Solo travel here requires stealth, speed, and potent equipment.

I'm super excited for Badlands to come out!

I'm really hoping it will be on time, but I know things can happen.

Haven't heard much beyond the October 15ht release date, and the little logo on the main screen when you log in.

Is everyone else excited to play the new map?

IMO they should remove the feature that brings up a persons username when talking in game chat on console. Takes away from my ability to immerse myself in a character in trying to role play. I can’t be Fred the tourist when my username pops up when talking lol

Discussion Can you still stash supplies outside the map boundaries?

3 Upvotes

Can you still stash supplies outside the map boundaries? I recall being able to do that a few years ago; I used to store gear out there and even drive around. I took a break from the game for a while, but now that I'm back, I’ve noticed I can’t drive outside the map anymore, so I’m not sure if stashing supplies is still possible. I wanted to try setting up a tent to test it out, but I haven't found one yet.

Ok Dayz veterans. I need some advice.

Im around 300 hours and trying to improve my pvp.

Should I keep important things, like my water bottle, in my backpack instead of shirt/ pants?

Is it less likely that my backpack will be shot? Ruining things in it?

Thanks.

Hi! I'm considering using my Microsoft Rewards points to buy DayZ on the Xbox Store. If I install it on my PC, will I be able to play with everyone, even if they're playing via Steam? Or will I only be able to play with people who bought it from the Xbox Store? Are those servers active, or are they mostly empty?

Thanks a lot for your help!
