Arma 2 Dayz Mod: Zombie Survival Simulation. - Page 395

Always a great way to start off.. You'll get used to it. Shaking zombies is actually pretty easy. Once you learn which buildings are which, you can run through the ones with multiple entrances (waiting inside the building for a second to make sure they follow you to the door) then sneak out another entrance. You can break their line of sight by zigzagging through bushes or thick trees. There's also the always funny flying zombie trick where you lead zombies to a steep hill and run down it carefully, then watch as they just launch themselves off the side of the hill to their death. There's also the pine tree trick, where you can just sit as close as you can to the center of a pine tree and the zombies can't hit you.

Poor mythbuster zombie isn't going to be returning in the standalone.

+rep for the advice

I always thought thy keep following you unless you enter a building to slow them down.

I just go ham and 1 shot them in the head with the 1st gun I get. Then have like 50 chase me down a street until one of meh clan members picks me up in a SUV,UAZ or A6

Yeah, they're pretty buggy so their line of sight can be broken really easily. That might change in the standalone, though.

I don't have that luxury since I play solo most of the time. If I'm just starting off, I'll run into a forest trying to lose as many as I can before I turn around and pop them in their heads.

I GOT MY FIRST WEAPON!

An axe...

UPDATE: So within an hour, I found a bunch of soda, ammo, an M9, and a double-barrel shotgun. I aborted once I got the shotgun. I'm going to wait until there are fewer people on the server (already hear gunshots 3 or 4 times in different places I was in).

Move the game to your SSD(if you have one), it has doubled my FPS at a minimum. This may vary from person to person, but it helped me a huge amount considering getting good FPS can be hard(6990 driving a 1440p monitor, still struggles ).
I remember playing DayZ like that... I wish I could get back to that. Now I can find military grade stuff in around an hour

I'm curious, does wasteland support ACE? I've been playing on some ACE/ACRE servers lately... I really couldn't go back

Anyone play on Tunngle? I do occasionally.

If you guys play regular ArmA 2 or DayZ regularly, add me on Steam/Skype and I can get you in my clan if you like.

Adding you now for wasteland if you want



I'm not sure I've never played ACE... but hey, you should definitely give it a try... PM me if you wanna join us.. we are playing now.

I'm now curious to see this also. I have been meaning to play some ACE for the past while but haven't done it yet. Have you just been playing on Domination servers?

OK, accepting. Never actually played wasteland, but I'd like to give it a shot.

I love DayZ, though.

Even regular Arma battles and such are fun to me, Arma is my favorite/only PC game. I'm surprisingly (to myself) good.

Joey, if you'd like to be in the clan, I'll invite you to our skype chat and we'll eventually set up training for you.
