Marsden 1st MRB

Also built up this highlight of the action that lists all our funness This one shows all of the time we spent at the NWAF and while we didn't see anyone, it was stressful Watch live video from strakervolusen on www.twitch.tv And this shows the most surprising and stressful encounter I've had for like about 2 or 3 months Watch live video from strakervolusen on www.twitch.tv

Joined them I did. Lead us to loot Supremacy I have. If you couldn't join us this evening then don't worry! You can see the whole thing after I joined here Watch live video from strakervolusen on www.twitch.tv Only down side for everyone is it is 3 hours long. Highlights would probably bee after the 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes is spent in mill base south east of Vybor. 35 to 45 minutes we hit a Heli crash during our Heli Run early. From about 1 hour 25 minutes to about 2 hours 5 minutes is in the vacinity of NWAF, specifically on the western edge of it. Arrival at the Tisy Mil Base Tent City was at about 2 hours 18 minutes and we had our unexpected trade about 7 minutes after that.

Im away for the hours you are on but log in most every night after about 2 EST to loot around our local areas. Not my fault the time difference means you asleep Bit there was about a week and a half period since the last time I died (which was in January BTW) that I hadn't played. Which is why I said two months instead of 3

Lol LaGesse once your character breaks 2 months come talk to me

Well it sounds like Larsson was going for the real world simulation of the use of Sherman's. Overwhelm them with numbers and use the smoke from the burning hulks to help flank the Germans.

You are in the Severograd checkpoint @Mottola In down for a long run tomorrow. Would be nice to get both tents filled in

Alright killed all the wolves with my bat, we have tons of meat and wolf pelts now... What we can do with them I'm not sure but want to find out. We also have leather patch kits. And biggest of all, I found a car battery and it's in the tent. XD Put my MP5 and mags in as I found a silenced glock 19 and had enough rounds to fill 3 magazines, which I also found XD. Need to get the second tent set up. It's in my characters hands. See you guys later on XD

Found a second tent on the DMZ. Down Side is that I ran into 3 wolf spawns while playing. First just across the field with all the heli spawn, the other on the way back from the Myshinko Tents, and then the last at our tent while looking for a place to set up our new tent. I am now wholed up inside the original tent, viewing the world with no color. Tent is stored. My gear is good. But I don't have enough rounds to fight off the wolf pack snapping angrilly outside of the tent right now... Currently am down to 35 9MM rounds (one full 30 round mag, one in the chamber and 4 spares in a 15 round mag. I've got plenty of wolf meat from the first three wolves I killed to get my blood back but if someone could come back and give me a saline or blood next time you are on that would be very helpful. Also anyone en route to the tents proper we need 9MM, .308, and 7.62x39mm rounds. For some reason the full AK mag of 7.62x39mm I had stored is gone from the tent and there is now a crosbow? As there are so many of us in and out of base camp now I would like to request that if we are pulling from the tents we post on here what we took so we know if we have been looted or not. Will make us all less paranoid I think. On the plus side you can watch the Wolf encounter, run to tents, and second wolf encounter on my Twitch @ twitch.tv/strakervolusen so yeah.. Second wolf encounter was not my proudest moment, they caught me in the middle of an open field. P.S. We have no spare outfits in the tent at this time, I have brought in a couple of M65 jackets I had found but didn't think to grab any of the pants I ran into. Remember to be grabbing spare clothes on occaision as well as building armband stacks when we can. Makes it a bit easier on respawn. Sure it's not as space efficient as dedicating the tent to guns/ammo but it makes us more effectient as a squad that people don't have to worry so much about getting inventory items, and instead have to worry about getting food to make the trip to us in Zeleno

In the event that anyone is interested there is a new status report up. Goes over some planned changes for melee combat, changes to the forests and shading details for grass/foliage as well as some proposed reworks to the audio systems. It is nice to see the fact that these changes are beginning to lean more toward an optimization and polish type of implementation over addition of wholly new systems. While some of it (audio and forests) are base changes to the engine and map, they are a later developmental task that allows for a more "finished" feel so as to aid in the immersion of the player base. The next big milestones that we are likely to be seeing on this development cycle will be the player and AI controller syncronization (will end the issue with Infected pushing us around/through objects) and then the implementation of the melee that is demo'd in this status report, finished physics for the new Engine for aid in vehicle piloting, and then we will most likely see a return of focus on the crafting/base building mechanics. I think that once those three key points are addressed we will start seeing the dev team start focusing in earnest on the fine tuning of the game, bug fixing and optimization will start being more and more apparent at that stage of the game (AKA Beta). So while it has been a long and arduous journey, Beta is finally within sight as a near future type goal; I personally can't wait to see if they add the ability to construct fortifications and compounds once all the physics are taken care of.

So just as a headsup, server Daddies Brown Sauce currently has an event running in which you can win a 20 dollar game if you find the Barrel full of Teddy Bears hidden somewhere on the map between now and April 17th. I think that could be a good change of pace for us. Only problem is that the event details state the barrel can be anywhere on the map....

except none of my twitch video's show the coast which is where you spawn But researching on google/dayztv.com is a good playn

lol I spose. too bad you have to find base first XD

But sadly you will be unable to take your top off

Alright the 20 minute video just finished up and is now viewable XD Sadly it has no player encounter but it does demonstrate how to light a fire using a hand drill kit, and craft a splint for those who haven't been playing as long and may be wondering about the crafting systems in DayZ

lol nah we already have LaGesse for baint JKJK more players are always welcome if you decide to pick it up. Be aware you probably won't be able to find much of anything on your own for your first 20-50 hours of gameplay. That time should realisticallly be spent with others as much as you can, and going across as much of the map as possible. That way you can have your general barings on the map and will help to make you not a liability while we travel lol

Deleted, not raided Also I had let my computer go to sleep to soon to stop the wirring of fans this morning so they never pushed the upload. Should be finished soon. The 2 hour one is about to start. Also looks like Mottola forgot to record this mornings session

Logged in at approx 5AM EST to find our tents had been deleted again. Was able to confirm as I found our second Barel despawned. Of course as is the DMZ way I got shot right after I got to the barrel spot. Surprisingly enough, again as its the DMZ, my Toon still breathes. Through the course of the escape I found us a replacement tent and it now lives in the prior home of our tents. Wanna see how it went down? Good news, you can. Downside, it's two hours. After I got the tent set back up though of course it began to rain, so yeah had to keep from freezing to death and made a fire before checking out the Zeleno Base prior to calling it a night. Was only a 20 Minute jaunt through the woods. BTW, this character predates March, first video with him is February 21st, and he was already fairly old at that point.

lol oops dropped a tens. TY LaGesse

so someone grabbed all our .556 ammunition?... that's a problem

Damn olwel. We shall have to find another. Tisy raiding party this weekend.

Oh noes what about the SVD?

I feel like tonight more people gonna die. We shall have to wait and see. I won't be able to be on till after midnight est however

as samuels forgot to give anyone what Mottola's twitch is it's here: twitch.tv/mrmottola and mine is: twitch.tv/strakervolusen Going to start recording and uploading more regularly for mine

Well armstrong died again but we have some good shit stashed away. Our tents are almost full. Our barrel is full. We need a truck battery. Bad. Then we have truck too.

How bout erryday? lol jk jk. We can work to find a day that works for everyone to hop on and have some EscapadeZ together. Will also be a great opportunity for good content creation for me with the Newsletter
