Not sure how people keep up with this game. I've died probably 4 times now trying to even get a hold of my first gun.
I just don't have the patiance for crawling around for 30 minutes only to be sniffed out by a wallhack zombie and wacked to bits. Suddenly my leg breaks from a single hit, I take 1k blood hits from 1 meter falls..

Is there some trick to gettin' rid of zombies? I just really miss startin' with a gun, atleast then I could find some building and put out some pew pew. I'll give it a few more deaths before I write this game off for a good while, still not used to the clunky controls either, and I really want the potential this game have to work >_<

At the airfield near Balota.

Go into hangar. Find M4 with red dot sight.

Have alice pack full of every supply imaginable.

Have 8 tools on tool belt.

Stop to eat some beans and drink a soda.

Get shot in the face while eating food from inventory.

Log out and rage gently.

Fuck.

I am all for this I want the same thing. My preference is just that its on the West side somewhere. That would give us control of berenzhino with bk and jochan and those guys and another group to control west side.

I kinda agree but I can understand not wanting to give away camp locations. I always talk with those guys in TS I don't like they have all the vehicles but I could care less about the weapon. They are all cool and they came to give me a blood transfusion. Yesterday I came to help out Dark energy even took him to the Fucking NW Airfield and almost died for nothing. They are all cool though they have most of the good shit yea but I really don't mind rolling with a smaller/different group. I am camped with some other TLers in the east who are cool and I have never once actually did any activities with them I just chat all the time in the General DayZ chat. As long as they don't kill him I'm cool.

So Maestro if you would like to set up west side of the map somewhere then I'm all for it!

Let me clear a few things up (had to make new TL, forgot my old pw damnit), because the past couple days have been really hectic.

Some time ago, the core group/admins set up a tent location with a couple vehicles. I don't even know if bK has been there yet, it was more imanoob/darkenergy and a few others. Also I'm fairly new to the core group, I'm lucky I got in and got trusted, I gained trust through bK but anyways one day they were running around and found a vehicle. Long story short it ended up being more or less bK's, though the others involved had rights over it also. Shootemup, me, and someone else all found ATVs on our own and fixed em up, though they're all gone now, and Cee found a truck (but Cee plays solo a ton and he said he didn't want it) so that truck is mostly mine, but bK and the group have rights over it as well. I *think* bK, hugitout, and shootemup are all EvE buddies, but anyways with our vehicles and newfound power to hoard crash site loot and become really geared, we needed another tent, and since we (at the time) were not really familiar with camp 1, and Darkenergy wanted us to set up a second one, we set up another.

During all this time setting up a second camp to store high-level weapons and equipment, we would usually try to talk about it in vent, and yeah we do try to keep it secret from those who aren't currently running right alongside us and closely trusted, but worse than that was the fact that there are frequently people whom's names we don't even recognize, nor do they say anything, every time we're discussing private info, so tofu hooked us up yesterday with a passworded channel. Top this off with the fact that someone (non-TL, most likely) found our vehicles and we had to rush them out and hide them anew, and while discussing a new place there were 2 unknowns on TS listening in, we're just really paranoid.

Darkenergy doesn't usually ride alongside us, the big four teams of TL it seems revolve around darkenergy, bK, jochan/mani, and the relatively newcomers such as you, so it's not like it's you guys against the world.

We've been backstabbed a couple times, it just takes some time and a lot of chatting and trying to get involved in TS to get trust with the big names. I wouldn't even say my word of "this guy's trustworthy" has much weight because I'm only like 2 weeks old into the group. You're making a good name though and a pretty familiar face, but give it time. We don't want people thinking we're getting too exclusive and that we're stashing everything privately, we just have so many faces we aren't totally familiar with that might exploit us, because if a large tent site is found by a bad apple, it's done for.

Couple other things, sorry to type so much. The snipers in electro, "bandage bandits" as we got desperate for bandages yesterday, aren't hostile to TL. But please keep in mind, contrary to what it seems people think, the fact that we have a squad of geared killers overwatching electro doesn't mean it's safe for anyone not a part of our group to roam around elektro, thinking "ah those guys got us covered." We get someone to ask other group channels for people's locations before we set up a kill zone at any major site, or roaming NW or anything like that, but we still sometimes need some exlusivity when we're set up, and especially need as little talking in TS as possible, we have to hear other shots and any footsteps of nearby players trying to flank. It's really hard to coordinate a bunch of people to find who's TL and who isn't, and if we see 10 people and get good shots but don't take them because after a few stressful moments find out it's actually TL, it's going to get people's trigger fingers itchy, and next time they might give only very little warning before shooting and that warning might not even reach to target, which turns out to be TL. So tl;dr is that if we've set up elektro as a deathtrap, don't flock over there. I don't want to say just avoid it altogether, but it seems like when we say we're in elektro literally everyone else says "cool i'm coming too" and it unfortunately leads to a clusterfuck.

Last, about darkenergy, I explained earlier why we set the password channel, we had 2 unknowns listening in. Why they didn't drag you down once they knew you wanted a ride, I don't understand. We planned to give you a ride, but keep in mind it would have taken 4 or 5 people out of their way for a job one driver could have done. If the two vehicles were together (we split up to search crash sites) maybe we could swap and have one vehicle with one person pick you up but anyways I took the van with 2 or 3 others out of the way literally 180 degrees to go back up to NW airfield, and they were like "aw man really do we have to?" I wanted to but understand that it was a burden on everyone else, and I was pressured by both you and them to do opposing things. Then (again I dont know why they didnt put you in our channel) we had the mixup and heard you were unconcious, and heard shots very close, I just thought you were done for. When you messaged me that you are fine and still need a ride, we took shots by server disconnect abusers in bumfuck nowhere and hit a rock in the confusion and popped the tires, leading to a long firefight waiting for bK to bring spare parts. It was a mixup but I'm sorry for putting you in that position and leaving you there.

really weird....I heard gunshots at balota airfield and it took me a good 15 minutes to track down the guy who fired the shots. I found him near the minitown north of the airfield and shot him 2-3 times, his body fell to the floor and as I was running up to it the body went through the floor and I didnt end up getting the kill. Anyone know if its just a bug or did he alt+f4?
