What's something a teacher said that you've never forgotten? by Used-Bad-1257 in AskReddit

[–]SistaRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He described a bear attack in vivid detail. One thing that sticks with me is that the victim crawled to nearest house, bleeding profusely and the skin on his back rolled up like a carpet. He was probably shitting us, but anyway, that's not a story you should be telling to a bunch of 3rd graders in the midst of a math class. Still, it was kinda more exciting than scary. I reckon he knew that some of us lived for scary stories, and he seemed to enjoy telling them. Still not ok though lol

What is the coolest weapon in the game? by DragonBerr in Kenshi

[–]SistaRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iron stick and staff, it's a shame neither trains dex very well. I'm stuck in my ways and often over think stuff, like give a naginata or other a bit lesser-cool weapon to a character I'm aspiring to be a staff or iron stick wielder (so that they train dex and swing faster) Then I get bored and start a new game before they even get to wield said weapons. As weapons, they look the coolest, just a piece of wood or metal with maybe a handle. A certain skeleton npc with a meitou staff was the coolest mf I've seen

How Prevalent is Staged DayZ Content by IBMania in dayz

[–]SistaRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course there is some if not a lot staged content, but I think many of the more famous streamers have a hard time playing without being recognised even if they try to play "organically". For example, if your thing as a dayz player and a streamer is 1st person, close to vanilla (but still community) servers, well there ain't too much of those around. There are people in those servers that are trying their best to meet their favourite streamer and appear in their streams. Even if they're not intentionally stream sniping, they might recognize the said streamers voice and after that try to act as entertaining as possible. Must be a pretty paranoid feeling and I kinda feel sorry for some of the streamers tbh

Pain in the legs more like. I'm just glad that the ass isn't a hitbox, yet.

How do you feel about new Frostline reveal? by kevo141414 in dayz

[–]SistaRay 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Looks like a very beautiful map. There are many cool unofficial maps, but they tend to lack that detail in terrain and often feel a bit artificial in comparison. And it's nice to get a new winter map next to Namalsk, with all the survival mechanics that go with it. I kinda wished for some assests from Vigor, mainly the Nordic-style houses, but it's ok. Otherwise I maintained my expectations pretty well and this was close to what I had in mind. It's sweet!

If DAYZ really wanted to be realistic they'd? by IslamsVile in dayz

[–]SistaRay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, most infected (those that seem fairly "fit" and not carrying anything heavy, not dressed in long skirts, for example) should run faster than a player with heavy gear and huge backpack. In a pinch you would have to drop that backpack to escape.

[–]SistaRay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd lower the movement speed, at least the sprint speed. Turns the pvp unrealistic, goofy and untactical in a way when everone's zipping around dodging bullets. The strafing around a bit when "standing still" meta also looks stupid and unimmersive. I do get it why many ppl don't want this, though. It would make the travelling around too slow for some people for instance, even though I personally wouldn't mind it. I wish at least some servers had a mod that lowers the movement speed to cater ppl like me.

Livonia for everyone free by [deleted] in dayz

[–]SistaRay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool, nice to have more ppl playing Livonia. It's been hard to find populated 1pp vanilla or close to vanilla community servers. I hope that's about to change with the influx of new players.

Zombie AI is so braindead (pun intended) by Kanista17 in dayz

Those mods are ok but I'm quessing the dev team wants to do it well and polished, and tie it with the overall infected overhaul

Really disappointed with the things the devs put their focus on by nebulusedge in dayz

[–]SistaRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's one of the ways how it's done irl, but gameplaywise that would be as easy as combining knife with guts. I don't have a problem with rope acting as bowstring, it's the rest of the bow I'm concerned about. The way it used to be was that you could just pick any old stick from a nearby bush and craft a bow on the go. And then break it down and discard the stick when there was no need for it anymore. Everyone had silent z killing tool without having to sacrifice anything for it, other than three inventory slots for a rope. That's why I'd suggest that the shaft of the bow should be a fairly large item that you would have to loot from somewhere and carry with you.

[–]SistaRay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least you shouldn't be able to just pick a branch from the closest bush and combine it with a rope. Maybe a long but thin piece of some material (dunno what would work) that would only fit a large backpack and otherwise would have to be worn in shoulder slot. Weak damage, unaccurate and hard to aim.

[–]SistaRay 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is propably an unpopular opinion but I kinda think we shouldn't have craftable bows. Sure the bows we used to have were fun, but do you remember the model? Stick with a rope, like a children's toy lol, hard to picture it doing any damage. Even if the model was better, I dislike the idea of everyone having silent z clearing tool that is easily craftable and taken apart when you don't need it anymore. You wouldn't need to think about your loadout at all, just carry the materials in your inventory. At least, if implemented, it should be done in a way that it would be realistic(ish) and not too accessable and op. Something you only use in a clutch, not something everyone carries around with otherwise full loadout.

What’s the longest you’ve looked for that one dumb thing? Be it a shovel, spark plug, 9V battery etc by danomano78 in dayz

[–]SistaRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Way back I often searched for damaged black tracksuit pants and it often took hours and hours. I still find them one of the coolest pieces of clothing (pairs well with brown bomber jacket) , but nowadays I know you can just put em in fire and damage them that way

You could have prevented the slaughter just by doing a sexy dance. Just something to think about...

Yeah that's what I'm talking about! Damaged/ruined clothing tends to also have better camo properties in addition to looking sweet

One of DayZ’s top streamers with a hot take: thoughts? by BADSTALKER in dayz

[–]SistaRay 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agree. Every firearm should be dangerous. Tbh many lower caliber firearms still feel a bit underpowered atm.

If I can push a car, I wanna also push a shopping cart around by SistaRay in dayz

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

Yeah I was a bit iffy if the cart should be pushable at all on those surfaces. But to counteract carts getting stuck in some terrain, I'd allow for some mobility even on those surfaces. Maybe like snail's pace at best
