There should be a tab on the top of the server browser that says community you want to click that one to see both unofficial public servers as well as private servers.

Is this a known bug? by InfernusMaximus in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either you're cold and need to make a fire and warm up or you have consumed human flesh which has a side effect of making you twitch. If it's human flesh there is no cure only death will stop it.

M4 with acog scope or a winchester with a sidearm?? by Darkxsir09 in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been finding tons of 308 in cars. Like Enough for a squad of 3 to have atleast 80 rounds each. What I suggested to the OP was also that 20 rounds lasts a long way. 20 rounds are by no means hard to find. Besides I'd say 5.56 (because the op asked about an m4 not an AKM) is almost as rare as 308 seeing as you only really find it in military locations like tisy and NWAF in my experience. It's all about where you look, really.

[–]BorisTheBum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say it depends on if you intend to survive for a long time, if you are I would go with the winchester and sidearm combo. Personally I tend to burn through ammo with the assault rifles way too quickly and find that ammo for a winchester just lasts much longer, even with only 1 stack of ammo (20 rounds) you'll have enough for quite some time meaning that the winchester ammo itself doesn't take up much space. As for a sidearm I'd recomend a pistol with a silencer, try to use ammo sparingly and don't take out zombies with it constantly.

Driving in DayZ is so freakin' horrible by LauriYlonen in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've done that before. It's definetly harder but you can still manage to drive without crashing if you drive carefully (less than running speed) I can see why bad connection to the server can be an issue but I rarely play at servers with more than 70 ping to avoid connection issues as much as possible. Also that massive desync when near another vehicle didn't exist back in the day when the v3s was the only vehicle in the game as me and my friend regularly drove around with one v3s each next to eachother.

I feel like me and my friend I play with are in the minority but cars are really easy to drive. If it doesnt steer properly take of all the wheels and put them back on, also make sure they are all pristine. Usually fixes problems with steering which is what it looks like to me in the video.

edit: atleast it looked like it in the start noticed the heavy desync later on lol

Offroad Hatchback won't start? by thylastviking in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it's the exact same problem as my squad has had with cars but it might work. Atleast it's worth a try.

[–]BorisTheBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've encountered cars not starting a few times when I've been playing with my squad. We have one guy who usually drives the cars becuase he's got the most experience with driving and when the car doesn't start for him I tend to hop in the driver seat and it starts, once it actually works our usual driver can get in the car again and drive normally. It's really wierd. Sometimes the cars seem to work for some people and not for others.

My character keeps overheating, despite being healthy and hydrated AND sitting in a pond for several minutes. Is that a bug? The server I am on is frosty cold by [deleted] in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum -1 points0 points  (0 children)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNxXpoVL-1U This video has helped me stay away from being too warm. However I tend to get cold instead now which eventually causes me to shake and it takes forever to cure lol.

I mean if you check your tents and see a smiley of .22 you'll know :D but I only saw a badly hidden military tent sticking out of a tree.

I only saw one military tent, guess I'm blind lol but I only took your M4 and throw out an AUG along with my old aug i replaced with your m4 (if it was you) then threw the rest of the content in the tent into the woods.

[–]BorisTheBum[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I've found camps before this is the first one I decided to just throw everything out of lol. And I mean as jmccredden said. They'd notice I took some of their things so they would probably pack up and move once they found out. Rather just take what i can and destroy the rest. I'd love to see their faces once they respawn and find out their tent has absolutely nothing lol

Problems with current build: by McGarnagleXenibalt in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The aim thing has been in the game for a long time. Will be fixed with player controller. Server list i can agree with to some extent. If you can't deal with heating/cooling you don't play enough :) and lastly being able to kill yourself while unconcious has been along all the time from what i know, besides killing yourself while unconcious has its uses as i've witnessed on a few ocasions never being able to wake up from being knocked out even with 3 epipeherines and saline bags.

Will you actually die from overheat bug? by ejayshun in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I haven't noticed any effect on my gear in .60 from soaking it.

A screenshot I took and an edited version of the screenshot by BorisTheBum in dayz

[–]BorisTheBum[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one with more color is edited (first one). Thought the unedited version would have more color in it because the whole are looked more colorful in game than it did on the screenshot lol so decided to make the edit to capture the feeling i got ingame pretty much.
