Yes. It has a rare spawn for new weapons (like the MP5, which is "Coming to experimental"). Go on Youtube and look for videos for "unreleased" weapons in DayZ.

Lol. You paid for DayZ's pre-alpha and you think DR looks bad? Wow...

What looks bad?

:) People with a sense of humor do. 99% of people that see it yell at me ;(

That sucks... I've had similar issues with ArmA games. I don't have any advice; I'm looking for help as well. Usually just relaunching over and over again eventually works for me; I don't know the cause or fix. If anyone knows, thanks.

I know that feeling. 99.999% of the people I see open fire on me without so much as a "Hello" and it's irritating as hell to get DM'd by some KoS-wannabe for some 9 year old's shitty "Montage" that's nothing but a picture collage because his whole 5 FPS and speed-metal crap = a laggy-ass, terrible video. >.> That being said: 1: Was it in self defense? If yes you're fine. 2: Were they better equipped than you? If yes, you're fine. 3: Were they already bleeding, running from zombies, killing another player in obvious self-defense? If yes, you're an asshole. 4: Did you kill them purely out of malice (didn't want any of their stuff, they hadn't seen you yet)? If yes, you're an asshole. 5: Was it a scoped mosin vs a pistol at 500 meters? If yes, you're an asshole. 6: Did this happen? If yes, you're an asshole. As long as you can justify the kill to yourself, don't worry about it. If you can't, don't stay up all night wondering if you're going to burn in Hell or not. DayZ without players killing you (atm) is just a walking/starvation simulator. Ethiopia 2014 is boring without the Somalia DLC.

No. It's a video game. I've felt bad about how I've killed people before. I've knocked people out with a shovel, stole their pants, fed them bleach, and watched them die slowly before. I broke someone's leg with a sickle and followed him as he crawled down the road and got mauled by a zombie.

I haven't played this month. I should before suggesting help next time :)

I think terrain and texture quality need to be set higher. I'm probably wrong; I play everything at low-as-possible on this laptop. It could also be related to the most recent patch!!

Why'd you break my post? And I fixed that for you.

Yes. I understand that. Admitting that is literally what my post was about. Thank you.

That will never work. This game will always have cheaters because too many people are wussies to play right.

As high as I can. Minimum.

Good job suggesting everything that's already coming to the game. >.>

Alright. I was under the impression Steam limited access to regions that own games that can't be sold to them. Sorry, nevermind.

Doesn't Steam have to deny access? Like, it's still in your library, but as long as you're signed in/online (required for DayZ) you can't launch?

No. Would ban from sale in countries like Australia. Australian DayZ players would lose access without refunds.

"Emergent gameplay" is basically the story players make for themselves in a game. For example, a "true" DayZ player might slip and break a leg, crawl all the way to Elektro, make a splint, and meet another survivor on the way he befriends. There was no script, level design, or forced action behind any of that. It's impossible to have truly organic experiences in DayZ, however, because of cheaters using TeamSuck3, SteamCrap, Skype (Haven't thought of a name for Skyp3 yet...) don't let it happen.

THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I CAN'T ENJOY DAYZ. True emergent gameplay doesn't exist.

...that's kind of implied, yes. Thank you. You got the joke. Here's a cookie. <3

I'm not an elitist, I'm just better than you. Jk; looking back yeah that was pretty elitisty.

Click on ArmA 2 in your Steam Library (if that's where you bought it) and there should be an announcement. I've also seen it on their website, in other threads, and on Youtube + since the announcement that servers would be closed I've played both the mod and ArmA 2/Operation Arrowhead (full) online without a problem. It's only the free mode COOP servers that are affected.

Combat logging vs a hax0r is the only acceptable excuse, I agree. And I am everywhere. Omnipotence knows no bounds.

You are welcome, my child. Be merry, and make many merry men.
