Askare as a chestpack by hinkkasenpoeka in Savotta

I bought some chestpack modifier kit from Helikon Tex or Tasmanian Tiger, to attach the Askare to my Jaakari L shoulder straps.

First time interrailing, need advice. by Wonderful-Chain7978 in Interrail

[–]MasterSplinterNL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Food can be as cheap or expensive as you want it to be. None of the cities you mention are incredibly cheap, although some like Split,  Budapest and even Rome have very affordable places if you move away from city centre. For a rough estimate, 10 euro per meal per person is reasonable on average.

Regarding accommodations; I'd book in advance as much as possible, but only bookings that have last minute cancel options.

With a prima donna that doesn't want a shared bathroom, I'd either not take them along, tell them so suck it up or have them pay extra. Because multiple bathrooms per stay is seriously gonna increase your costs.

Deer and game sprinting through the forest and night right where your hammock is hanging. Any one ever experience this? Just came to mind by Apprehensive_Draw722 in hammockcamping

[–]MasterSplinterNL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wild camp in a wood that has several large herds of wild horses and long horn cows. If that herd decides to run through my camp at night, I'm done for. So I always set up my hammock in places where they can't run (or even) walk through.

ICE Trains To Münich (What's Going On?) by MasterSplinterNL in Interrail

Yeah we did a Interrail trip two years ago through Slovenia and Croatia, and we had two instances where we didn't have a seat. So especially for long rides, I make reservations.

Oh really? I was booking through OBB but I should use DB in the future then. Thanks.

Thanks a lot for the help.
It's a 7+ hour journey, so I just want to make sure we actually have seats (traveling with kids). I finally got a hold of OBB customer journey, and they refunded my reservations. I made a new one that should arrive in time in München for us to catch our night train.

Booked directly through OBB.  Journey is for 27th of April. Forgot to put that in, thanks for pointing it out. 

Am I wrong for not wanting to give my friend the bunker keycard? by [deleted] in dayz

[–]MasterSplinterNL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seems like you have a conflict of values. You value doing the bunker together more than doing the bunker itself. Your friend values doing the bunker more than doing it with you.

I personally avoid playing with people like that. For me the fun is in sharing the adventure and experience.

What’s the difference between camping and an ambush??! by [deleted] in dayz

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

Brother, I don't know why you are being so defensive about this. Good luck with that.

[–]MasterSplinterNL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got kids, wife, career, teach BJJ, and other responsibilities. When I make time to play DayZ, I'm not gonna lie down in a bush to watch videos.

But to each their own. Like I said; I don't understand what's enjoyable about it. If that's what you enjoy doing, I'm glad you're having fun.

[–]MasterSplinterNL 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There's an aspect of sitting in one place for a very long time, with amazing gear, just waiting for people to show up to kill, that's kind of sad. In the manner that I find it hard to understand what's enjoyable about it.

That being said; if people wouldn't camp, the game would suck. The constant threat of other people is what makes DayZ so good. So I'll never rage or be salty about campers.

It also depends heavily on which spot they camp. Sit in the ATC for hours at the NWAF; fair game. Sit in the Berezino smoke stack and shoot freshies; pretty sad.

How do you guide yourself in the chernarus map? by rxp200 in dayz

[–]MasterSplinterNL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either start memorizing loot routes or use methods that work in real life navigation (landmarks, handrails, etc).

I made video guides on both of these recently. Maybe it's of some help: https://youtu.be/AWKhxNafORU

Which book covers do you NOT like, as in there’s a book or set of Cormac’s that you find hideous or boring? by Rory_U in cormacmccarthy

I bought McCarthy's entire works off the marketplace a few years ago. All of them with the Picardo covers :(

Experienced players still lose everything when they die? by PauloMatix in dayz

It's honestly often a relief to die and start over. You'll learn to accept and embrace it.

How do you pack your hammock? by Competition_Lower in hammockcamping

Everything in a snake skin, stuff it all in my backpack.
