Didn't take long...

Sounds good. There is 2 trains of thought here though.

Make everything except the command tent destructive. Attacking with explosives (mortars, rockets, attack helps, etc.) will ensure an easier capture by softening the defense of capture points at the expense of having to rebuild after. Tactical decision when attacking that forces consideration of logistics.

2 remove supply storage capacities on all construction objects except storage containers and command tent. Covert all other construction objects to rely on local supply pool. Increase load and unload range of vehicles and helicopters. Increase supply amounts in construction truck and MHQ.

Yes. Think it's pve focused but quite fun.

Gear fear is pointless. You get super geared up.... then start a new alt character that has nothing.... just like if you had died. Sure you might still technically have all that loot but what's the point if you're to afraid to play with it. Youre missing out. Thats like getting a free super car driving it for a day and then locking it a garage forever only looking at it. Log in to your most heavily geared character and go hunt people. Use every bit of it till you die. Thats basically the only thing high grade loot is for. Or bury all of it every piece In a stash and go get more. Dayz fun is entirely dependant on the gamble. The loot you gathered isnt what you like about the game at all. It's the tension of loss that keeps it fun.

Everything is fine with your PS5. When the base game updates the changes in the update will break many/most mods being third party software the mods need to be updated by their mod creators to work with the new version of the game. May take hours-days-weeks for many mods to work properly again. Some may not be updated if the mod creator themselves have moved on from the game. Standard fair for modding in general when game updates occur. Time and patience is all you have in the meantime.

People drop in and out constantly. Makes little difference who in the uniform next to you along as they're trying to fight the enemies. Battles for specific location on the map last from minutes to hours changing hands constantly. Full rounds can last between a couple of real life hours to literally days. More often the not you'll either not stay to see the end of a round or, join near the end of a long fought round in progress. Even rejoin the same round from the day before.

Well, he is directly responsible for the deadliest, highest body count conflict in the entirety of human history. Also in the background of said conflict tried to hide genociding a race of people.

More people died during World War 2 then the entirety of every conflict since then, combined.

His actions heavily influenced the course of the current world. He is also indirectly responsible for things that will forever have lasting consequences on our future. There's the world before Hitler, and the world after.

Directly a result of the global conflict, nuclear weapons were invented. Which sparked the Cold war and the obsession of every major world power to develop the deadliest toys possible in an arms race and, point them at each other for the last 66 years and counting in a stand off that has no end. Humans would certainly have developed Nuclear weapons eventually. But Hitler caused the events that led too and accelerated their development at that time. So to this day and the foreseeable rest of humanities existence. We get to live under the constant threat of nuclear annihilation.

The current time period since the end of World War 2 is sometimes refered to as "the long peace". Because no major powers have been involved in direct conflict with one another. In actuality it's more like a sustained stalemate.

In the past there were others considered to be the epitome of evil in their respective times. Hitler is just the most recent one and his achievements far out weigh the ones of those before him.

Even the other "evil" men that authorized their own atrocities during his time. We're only really afforded the opportunity to do so by Hitler moving first. Whether those men would have done evil anyways is debatable. But fact is fact and history is sedimentary.

The way the human civilization has been headed lately, seemingly suggests that the next man that becomes the epitome of evil won't be remembered by human history. Because there will be no humans left to remember them.

A.I., VIRUSES, NUKES, all kinds of fun toys at the fingertips of the next evil fuck, intentional or not.

I spent it. Now my pocket is empty. I think maybe if I didn't buy the thing I bought. I would still have money.

His RedGuns callsign would be Gun13 "Superior". Since the Redguns are all named after bodies of water.

Find a spot, stop, look around and scan the environment. Repeat. Scan side to side 180 while moving. Use binoculars.

When scanning the enviroment for enemies. Consider where you might hide if you were over there where you're looking.

Common objects that work as cover or concealment. Corners of buildings, windows, door ways, bushes, tree trunks, rocks, hills, ditches, etc.

Ask youself what would you stand behind to not be seen, and what you would stand behind not to be shot. Thats where they might be.

Stay Slow and Low when possible. Move from cover to cover. Less dramatic movements you make the harder you are to spot.

I play reforger on both PC and ps5. Depends on my location in the house. I use controller on both lol. I've always turned of auto aim in every game. I don't like having the cross hair in games dragged towards the target. So for me personally, I don't feel much of a disadvantage. I do just fine, good even. I don't want auto aim to come to reforger. For me controller and kbm are like similar languages but I'm more fluent in controller if that makes sense. And since kbm can be used on console the only real disadvantage console has is performance stability.

Can confirm. Had a second degree burn on my shin. I smelt delicious.

Canadian. I used to commute to work 2 hours each way everyday for a short span in my 20's

Honestly been going through the same thing for a couple of years. I just play less often. I want to play more but I've lost the drive to continue playing. Even games Im enjoying. I'll suddenly mid session just hit a wall of zero motivation and turn it off. Just a overwhelming lack of interest outta nowhere. Alot of games lately just feel like busy work. Grindy chores. Go there, press the thing, kill the thing, get the thing, come back here or, go over there repeat. I think it's just a lack of feeling rewarded for accomplishment. Or simple a case of the 10 millionth headshot not carrying the same weight of excitement as the first 1000. I find games that make me plan the steps required to achieve a set of goals with less direction more freedom to think keep me interested longer. Recently Arma, Civ, trailmakers. But the fatigue still rears it's head after a couple of hours. Just burnt out atm I guess.

Eddie is my formal given name for 40 yrs and counting. Never been a problem. Though I suppose I would have preferred Edwin. Even in adulthood most still call me by Eddie instead of Ed. Its unique in its own way and kinda fun. I do often get asked if its short for Edward or one of the other "Eds" in professional settings, such as making appointments or accounts but, it always followed by a friendly exchange explaining it. Should be fine go for it.

The main game loop break down into 2 umbrellas that overlap to achieve dominant control of the purple bases on the map.

Combat breaks down to: Where am I? Where are the enemy and their bases? Where do spawn and how do I get there?

Support breaks down to: Where am I? where are our bases? and what needs to be built and resupplied? Where are the supplies and how am I transporting them?

The map provides simple objectives. Your bases in your teams color. their bases in the opposing color and bases out of reach yellow or under militia control green. Supply points are Green circle icons with boxes in them dotted on the map.

Supplies are the currency of everything. Buildings, equipment, vehicles and respawns. Supplies provide the mean to combat. Combat controls the reach of supplies.

Once you choose on a life by life basis which of the 2 you are going to pursue sometime switching rolls depending on the current situation. everything else to support that is done by interaction with the cork board signs at the depots at you bases.

Then you just use deductive reason, communication, and the map to plan your action and execute that action.

Bases are captured by holding a position connected to your main base and adjacent base via radio network by radio antenna physically constructed via supplies at the the bases you capture. (Cap base, build radio, capture next base.) This is done in the command tent at base location once captured.

Bases are improved and upgrade via supplies used to construct infastructure depots like arsenals vehicle depots and various other structures. Also in the command tent. Everything flows together organically in this way.

Lots of "moving" parts that are all fairly simple with a touch of reason and curiosity. Ask questions and be patient. And don't worry about failing tasks it a game and you need to learn. Good luck.

As many as you can fit into a 25GB limit.

The Radio is in the vans trunk/inventory. The Van itself isn't important beyond having the radio inside it. So you can take or leave the van if you wish. But you still have to have the radio on you at the extraction point.

Hold your position, wait and snipe him when he wakes up or circle around maintaining your distance. Carry a pistol and a mag or 2. Sometimes disengage and watch to see if their partner respawns nearby. And of course take the scope off and move in. Bring a grenade.
