That's cool. If I'm on before you then I'll see if I can find any spare guns for the group :) I think I'll head up north a bit where it's quieter and less chance of getting gunned down. Cherno and Elektro are pretty hostile places!Quote:

I'll be on about 9/10pm. Out golfing lol
Cool. I'm going on now so I'll see if I can fetch us some good supplies :) If anyone else wants to team up then join our steam group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/hexusdayz
Edit: Well that sucked. I found a shotgun and 2 crossbows and ammo for all weapons. I discovered a couple of really bad bugs though. 1. If you try and put 2 handed guns into your backpack they just disappear into thin air! 2. If you pickup another backpack but forget to empty your one first, you lose everything that was in your backpack. So... no guns yet haha :/
Anyone on tonight?
I won't be tonight. Pretty sure I will be tomorrow at some point though... I'm still by the south coast somewhere. Where did you guys end up lastnight?
We couldnt get on as ARMA2 was rolling out updates. Ive somehow managed to die though which is a shame :(Quote:

If you can look past that you will see it's a diamond in the rough. Just be warned that you need patience to learn this game. Though there are some training missions which I really recommend doing, it doesn't hold your hand and guide you through at any point so you will be left completely confused as to how to progress with a mission at times. Also if you have no vehicle or no one that can give you a lift in multiplayer games, then be prepared to spend a lot of time running across the map!Quote:

Go on youtube and search for shack tactical or chkilroy. Those guys have a really fun and organised way of playing Arma 2. Also don't forget to look into Arma 3 which is coming out soonish. There is another zombie mod for this game that looks good if anyone wants to give it a go. It's a co-op objective based game though. So when you get tired of bandits on DayZ you might wanna give this a try: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=14211
Ive managed to get a shotgun with around 16 rounds left but im on about 7K blood. Hanging out at the airstrip atm but I should be on at 9/10ish :)
I'll be on shortly. I've been sleeping. Work taking a toll on me with backlog of work.
Yeah cool stuff man, im available now :)Quote:
