    I would refrain from playing the next couple days. There will probably be game breaking bugs and a lot of people will get burned. Happens with all updates.

    And BattlEye has your ass.

    I picked a good week for travelling, then. From reading the opinion thread, 1 or 2 hotfixes are needed

    Lost my L85 in this update. Seems to have been removed from the game, I guess? Still, it appears when I press F for some reason, but since it isn't there I can't use it or anything.

    Dude, just exercise some willpower and don't play for a couple days. There are bug reports all over the place.

    Anyway, this made me LOL:

    that looks like trolling to me

    you can't change gender when making a new character/profile/whatever? strange, but of course completely irrelevant unless hitbox issues or some shit

    No, you can. It's just that they didn't change the text telling you that you can't.

    Poe's Law applies to this.
    It's so retarded you can't be sure whether the person who wrote this is sarcastic or not.

    Do you mind expanding on what that means? I truly have no idea what you are trying to say there.

    And thanks again for perking my interest in Arma so many years ago. It's the best damn shit I've played in many years barring one or two other games.

    I'll have to look up a UO server one of these dayz. See if we can steal your vehicles.

    Strangely, two and a half hours after you posted that three of us were online in vent. You didn't miss much though as only thesoup was able to get online with the new patch. I did see you one time a few days ago but you sat alone in your own channel for some reason. As has been said before in over 28 pages, the few of us that group together are willing to do a few missions with whoever wants to join us, yet we all have different schedules and live on different continents. Just hang in there for awhile.

    Amazing thing happened. I joined a 1.7.2 server with 1.7.1.5 (though not deliberately; idiots forgot to update the server name). I was invisible to zombies; no sound, no visibility (but not to players). I didn't starve or dehydrate and rate of fire with the axe was very rapid, like a machine gun. When I hit zombies, they flied back from multiple hits. I saw three players running away from a small horde and decided to go after them with the axe, to see if they could see me. I went through the horde with the axe like a grinder. One of them gave me the salute and they turned to go their marry way. They thought I was helping them. LOL. When two of them lied down, I chopped them up but the other guy shot me before I could get to him. His shot knocked me out but didn't kill me outright. I immediately disconnected and joined a 1.7.1.5 server. I was reset to my last location in a previous 1.7.1.5 server and had no injuries. Also, my murder count hadn't gone up.

    Weird version incompatibility but it was fun.

    I always wonder how someone from 2011 can have over 4000 posts and I don't recognize the name. Is there some secret forum here that I'm not aware of? Thanks for the link though, I got a good chuckle.

    Villain: I think you've been living in the bush too long. Do you have interesting dreams?

    Ulminati, thanks again for the Vent, you are a true bro. I'll give you a bandage and an AKU-74S if you ever show up. Maybe a couple of mags too.

    I'd tell you about the forum but it'd be breaking rule 1

    Really? I didn't see you that time. I wish I could escape my mortal binds and substitute sleep for even more gaming, but alas!

    No worries, CreamyBlood. The lulz this thread provides and the warm fuzzies are sufficient for me to leave a vent server thingie up.
