Meh, I see what ur saying but.... for example, M9 magazines only hold 15 rounds.. chambering a round, dropping the magazine, loading 1 more spare round u happen to have, and re-inserting the magazine is not practical almost ever.

Real world the only time u see a magazine+1 situation is a tactical reload, after uve shot at something and u want to be sure you have enough rounds for any further threats. It's taught (I know this because I teach it) but its not a load your going to be loaded with unless the shit hits the fan and ur engaged. Hell, 90% of the time the military is in a closed bolt load (Bolt forward, magazine in, nothing chambered). theirs a few exceptions of course, AF Cops carry one chambered and on fire for the M9 but still dont bother with the swapping for a fresh magazine.

You think they could do many many slow zombies instead of just a few fast ones?

Keep their alertness the same though.

I think a world full of flesh eating zombies would have me keep one in the chamber. Hell I keep one in the chamber when I hunt or go on long trips with my family. This isn't walking around base. This is after a zombie Apocalypse. You are 24/7 engaged in that scenario. That's what safety's are for.

This is why I couldn't be in the service. I would be quoting the movie during normal conversations just to troll. I couldn't help it. I doubt I would last very long.

Too funny, watch for Erocker in the side chat at the end.

Good idea, Arma 2 isnt exactly designed for "fast running melee enemies" so it doesnt look as nice as L4D zombies,

Many slow zombies would look nicer, but would take more resources

I didn't kill him with a FNAL but I killed him with a L85 with thermals, Also the guy he talking too H8, I killed his ass too as he TRIED to flank me up the hill. Thank the dayz gods for thermals cause I would have never seen him due to only having around 900 Blood and broken legs.

But in the end, I took out both MoD guys and took their weapons (AS50, M14, and other goodies.)

That's what I told him. I think he wanted it to be a FAL because he had the drop on you with an M14 and you out shot him, so he assumed you had a more powerful gun.

Nope, I got lucky with the headshot but he took me down to almost nothing and somehow I got enough time to bandage and lay down before H8 started to flank.

Well, nice job anyhow. Not often you get to watch a video from the guy trying to kill you.

I thought he might have videoed it, I just wished i videoed it too so you could have seen my side and heard us in the TS.

How would you guess that? And I think I can imagine pretty well what was going on in TS, depending whether Ducky was in as well.

What's the server? How does one get whitelisted?

I have my own server, but you seem to have more PvP going than we do right now. Plus, it's a private hive, right?

It's not a private hive, so to speak, Panthera has it's own cloud so you can go from map to map and your stuff carries over.

This is the server's web site, it seems they have a temporary weekday cease fire between the two clans, but that doesn't make it safe for others.

How do I find the server, so I can fave it?

EDIT: Never mind, I found it by searching for s5.

Looks like DayZ Namalsk was released. I'm going to give it a try right now. It looks to be a big map, almost 700Mb to download.

I read a few posts about it, sounds like loot spawns were few and far between, and you freeze to death.

The reason I mentioned it is cause he is always talking about his youtube channel to the S5 guys when we are playing so I figured he videoed it.
