DayZ

I've been reading about it for a while and would love to play, but my current laptop doesn't have the muscle to run it. I definitely enjoy the videos of crazy shit going down on youtube, though.

I cracked out and played for like 8 hours last night, I'm addicted. I'm worried it might get old fast, though.

Do you guys have mumble? If you do there is a free server we could all get into and maybe try to link up. I usually play evenings around 1800 - 0100 EST. This week might be rocky because work is picking up and I might be doing overtime.

When you go to fill in the mumble fields for a new server it's
Label: [Whatever you want here]
Address: server.herosquad.org
Port: 64738
UserName [Again, whatever you wish]

It's a 100 slot chat server with logical organization so maybe go to
Games -> ArmA CC whisper blocker -> DayZ -> Braaaains

Or if you guys have a better VoIP option or communication method I'm DTF. We can of course use Zelaron but it's not as quick as I'd like sometimes.

I had the FN FAL with AN/PVS-4 but I squandered it by moving around in the daytime too much with it and was ambushed. I also play with some guys that have a helicopter stashed on a particular server.

If we start to play together a lot Chruser could possibly make a private sub forum so we could discuss locations and plans. Having ANYONE who I don't trust know the locations or servers we use could potentially be very bad - I don't know how your guys' experience with strangers has been so far but mine has been almost unanimously bad.

I have to wait till I get my new computer to try anything like that. The one I use now runs on an integrated graphics chip so it's pretty much useless in the realm of gaming.

Sounds good. K_A and I used the server you listed last night, with great success (aside from the part with his keyboard dying while he was unconscious and bleeding).

Yeah, it's kind of shitty when you can't even alt+f4. At least I still had mouse function so I could kill the zeds that were attempting to eat me. Hopefully I'm not deceased when I log on tonight.

Try the power button on the front of your computer bro

That's what I had to resort to. It was really the only option I had other than disconnecting my internet manually, I guess. It was still pretty shitty because I couldn't log back in and receive aid from Chruser at the time. I had no means to fix my keyboard (dead batteries with no replacements at ~3AM). Hopefully I'm not dead and he can administer aid when I get home.
