Suggestion: Bolt Cutters and Bladder (W/Pictures)
applejaxc replied to globalfriction's topic in General Discussion
As useless as bolt cutters are in DayZ (there's no stretch of fence I can think of where 4 inventory slots is worth giving up to save the time of simply running around..), they're a feasible concept; I've used a script in ArmA 3 that allowed toolkits to have the same function. -
What FPS does your game run at? If it's an input lag problem, go into documents/DayZotherprofils/yourprofilename. There's a .vars in which you can edit gpumaxframesahead, which should be set to 0, along with another value. Give me a second and I'll link a tutorial that isn't half-assed http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/154330-possible-fps-enhancer/

It's not an issue of having friends; there's 3 people I like to play DayZ with, plus a few transients that I occasionally meet up with. We don't use CheatSpeak and we do just fine.
-
Why do soooo many people want to use TeamSuck3? Why can't you organize what server and a rendezvous location out of the game (that amount of meta is fine), and then turn CheatSpeak off and use the games already provided directional VOIP, or loot some walkie-talkies and use that instead of taking an unfair advantage over honest players?!

Some suggestions based on my experience with the SA
applejaxc replied to HardstylerSL's topic in General Discussion
...you do know how guns work, right? Loud noise = zombie attraction. Their AI is still WIP, but why the hell wouldn't firing an assault rifle attract zombies? That's just common sense, and already in the mod. -
I don't understand some of the concerns for areas being "Worthless"; if anything spawn rates should be dropped in cities/coastal military spawns, not more added to the so-called zones. That strikes a balance of difficulty and need to travel/explore the map, instead of Chernogorsk being a massive server-hopping fest.
-
Translations will be community-made/supported once modding is enabled.
-
Night servers are full of server-hopping cheating kill-on-sight types. At least on day time servers honest and dishonest players (in the sense of brightness/gamma) are on an equal playing field. And let me know how your NVGs + monitor works out
-
...can I hand cuff them and force them to drink disinfectant spray?
-
Skins has nothing to do with easy-mode hard-mode. If I sit in a bush and snipe someone in a black hoodie and jeans or I sit in a bush and snipe someone in a bandit outfit makes zero impact on my ability to be a bandit. Plenty of asshole bandits get hero skins for blood bagging/bandaging each other between fights, and use that to trick players. That isn't easy mode?
-
Title says it all: Does having the "Healthy" status condition (shown next to your head in the gear menu) mean that you will regenerate blood? I was sever-hopping in a house trying to eat rotten fruit to see how long cholera would take to kill me, and I'm suffering from "Sick" and "Healthy" at the same time. I left my PC running for half an hour, came back, and I wasn't black-and-white the way I was expecting. Are they balancing each other out?
-
I... I want to tell you why that's stupid, but I don't want to be the bearer of bad news. NVGs are going to be implemented after the "World economy," where only a certain number spawn within the public hive, meaning that across all 100 thousand players, there might only be 200 of them (total). Good luck getting any.

Security Vulnerabilities fixed by Patch #2 and Character wipe
applejaxc replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
He said IN the OP that there will be ongoing improvement to fix unforeseen problems (as it was adapted from the ArmA engine, there's issues that are ArmA 2-specific no longer needed for DayZ that weren't coded out correctly and were exploited, making this patch necessary) -
It's a fun place to shoot noobs.
-
No. Get the fuck out.
-
Not that black is a good color "Tactically" due to night time servers being full of gamma/brightness cheaters and everyone has shadows disabled anyway... but yes, why can I NEVER seem to find a black motorcycle helmet? I've got black working gloves, boots, cargo pants, hoodie, tactical vest... and a bright white helmet with an orange backpack. Wtf?
-
I wish there was a black variety, or a military equivalent, but overall, I don't find myself ever being shot in the back or discovered due to it. The only thing it's impacted is my ability to carry stuff.
-
I like the mountain back pack. :(
-
Lol not worth it at all.
-
I see; you want them taken out of the context menu.
-
Ooooh he wants reload to be taken off of the context menu...?
-
Why are we making it harder to be friendly??
applejaxc replied to Lidskjalf's topic in General Discussion
Put containers in your hand, add/take items like weapon attachments. -
...wtf are you talking about? Reload is R, use is space bar or middle mouse button.
-
Anyone else having problems with the site?
applejaxc replied to Color (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Like 505 bad gateway? It happens to all websites at some point or another; don't worry. -
For those of you who don't know what http://geoguessr.com is, it's essentially a game in which you are dropped into a random street view somewhere in the world. You have to guess where you are, and receive a certain amount of points minus the distance between your guess and the actual location. What would be required to make a ArmA maps version of this? Could the maps be viewed like a 3D model/plane?
