hehe - just dont see them ever being how one would expect - lost a bit of faith tbh

Zombies will never be as they should be

You know if you have a map ( in arma 2, sure SA is the same ) you can just count the squares on the map when you are zoomed in. they are around 100 mtrs each one from memory.

Boarding up windows sounds cool although i imagine this is based on actually fixing the zombies glitching through walls as pointless otherwise bar the vision block for other players.

@OP People will pretty much always get around things in anything , those crook locks you buy for your car ? certain thiefs will probually no how to remove it the day it hits the shelves - nothing is watertight. There will always be hackers in any game no matter how good the security. I saw only one hacker in the video ? I dont think this means the SA is as you out it Full of hackers, but i have not played much of SA so probally dont have the most informed opinion of it. As far as the guy killing Frankie , thats not a representation of the SA more so human nature i'm afraid. its amazing what ppl will do if there is no repercussions. Given Dayz has no Factions it will always happen and that is your answer right there , the game needs factions badly if you want to have a % of co op in there, no one ever seems to agree with me on this but i strongly beliecve its the answer to turn a deathmatch game into a survial game. You already RP a playstyle already in dayz so i dont see wht is so game breaking about having a hero faction , bandit , hunter etc etc. you could always have the choice of being a lone wolf or setting up your own group with friends. If the game had a strict penalty for a kill within the faction we would see a massive reduction in KOS and see a % rise in co op which i know a lot of people want to do.

Maybe some buts its unfair and wrong to assume that everyone that plays on 3pp wants this crutch weedz it really is, and for those who dont its insulting.

I do understand why mate but as i said to Weedz its directed to the wrong people, if they really feel that strong they should petition the devs for 1pp only. You will never bully people into playing 1pp by namecalling and acting eliteist.

I'm sorry but that is not right, most of the mud slinging are ppl calling regular lamecore etc etc strange that isnt a nickname for Hardcore if people are activily insulting hardcore players. - People dont activily insult people that play Hardcore ( bar some accute examples) Maybe its the odd founded elistism that generates from certain people in regaerds to playing Hardcore. Its only a perspective and yes imo its the best one and the one i grew up with but no need to feel you are more special because you play it or lord it over others that dont. In regards to dyslexis video it is spot on and rasies some good points. No one is disagreeing that 3pp can and does get exploited , but its a level playing field as its available to all. It does not concern you if you are playing on 1pp servers so why the discussion

I do and have concerns we will never have the zombies we should have in the game in terms of imagination and not glitching through walls, even in arma 3 bp they glitch through structures. What ever happened to aftermath mod? they claimed to have solved this a long time ago but never came through with the goods.

But there is no need to abuse people just because they want to play a game thats easier. Its the greedy games companys that only care about $ that you want to blame mate. Mainstream means more $ that is why BF series turned into a COD style shooter because EA knew it would make more money as it has mass appeal. Trust me i was gutted when bf3 was released, i'm a long time fan of bf2 but dont need to use the term cod kiddies or scrubs. Blame the companys for being greedy not the ppl that want to play something casual, that is their choice and they should never be forced into playing anything other than what they want to play or be chastised for it. And the guy bragging ( as you put it ) is just being honest , and as said before mayority of ppl that play on 3pp will be asusing ( not abusing that mechanic ) as its in the game. So if he was bragging its pointless as other ppl do the same.

Weedz, You say you behave like an adult yet you seem to feel the need to belittle and call people scrubs for playing Regular mode- def not the actions of an adult. Newsflash- not everyong who plays Regular does so to abuse 3pp. If they want to play 3pp then let them without name calling. You like 1pp thats fine. Other people playing their own game on a server not connected to where you are playing should have no consequence on your game so there is no need to name call and act eliteist about the subject ( like a lof of ppl do , quite hillarious ) Also as mentioned before everyone is at the same playing field so it does not matter- i remeber ppl used to complain about the PF in RTCW saying its a noob tube, well it was in the game- deal with it,. Me i never liked the 3pp thing in arma , and found it cumbersome comming from BF2 ( as they ruined bf2 with bf3 ) i have over 20 years under my belt playing, scrimming FPS's and never liked 3pp games.However i do like playing on regular - A- its another character B- it is nice to be able to see your character. I still dont like 1pp in arma 2 or SA it just doesnt feel right for some reason I Played some Arma 3 the other day after a while and for some reason 1pp felt fine.

All well and good but it behaves like that wether you are under load or not....so pretty pointless touting the realism card in regards to Dayz.. I have and always will be against mouse acceleration - it makes time put into a game pointless as the movement is very random. Gamers have always been against mouse accell and rightfully so, its impossible to build up muscle memory of your movements with it on. Dayz already has enough realsim in it. And as mentioned it doesnt account for load anyway.

Its all about muscle memory - if you have mouse accel on you will never get used to it like you will with it off.Same with smoothing etc

Never said you should play the game any other way you want bro, its sandbox for a reason. I was mearly picking somones comment up that i bet was singing his praises beforehand. And in regards to your quote about Dean Hall not invisioning people running round killing each other, i bet he expected nothing else, the game is deathmatch unless you have friends on ts - there are no factions, the game will always be high percentage KOS until the iontroduce factions.

Sounds cool, although my axe is kept in my pack un shown so not worth it unless you run with no BP or have it outside the pack.

I bet you were singing his priases before the hackusataions. I dont see how he is awful at Dayz? his early vids show he wasnt stupid and played clever. He plays a lof of FPS and is not bad from the looks of things.

I love people that think America are the only empire to have done wrong. Every empire since the dawn of time has exploited for their own needs. The common denominator is Man not a country. Greed Money Power.

God not this again. Its nearly as boring as kos threads. 1- there is a something you might of not heard of- called arms deals where coutrys sell arms under the table to other countries. 2- its not just indigenous military you have to consider the amount of private military companys in countrys for drug cartels etc etc. They dont always use indigenous weapons.

Some peeps in the clan i'm kinda in play a lot of this, i dl it for a3 - do need to check it out.

I have the same problem time to time and i'm using a ( wait for it ) Nividia 9800 lol - I'm sure I saw someone post a "flush" command solution about the CTD where you still have sound of the game. Dont think its driver related.

Just play I44 though play with six- there are still servers running ( not dayz ) WMD wasteland i44 is back up again, and there pretty much is always games of domination going on 82nd ab server. Also there is always small groups on i44 missions on various servers. The skins on the bastone and meredet winter missions are amazing.

Oh sweet, was one of my favorite pistols in the mod ( celle) almost sd when fired, was enough for one shot kill to head like any i guess. Loved it most due to very high stability when fired.

I like it personally, its also one of the reasons i like I44 a lot as it takes a lot of skill to use the weapons and you really need to get to know your gun. Its all about your memory, say for instance you make a lot of long range shots at a running target, you get used to where you have to lead your shots, same with the recoil.

I noticed this at 600 m but this was a few weeks ago ( pristine gun and scope ) I play a lot of I44 and the enfield and g43 etc have simular characteristics , i always believed it was down to the recoil of the gun. even some AR's in Arma you have to account for the recoil ( bounce of the barrell after shooting )

Hi All, Firstly this is not a negative knee jerk post about Dayz, please do not reply with " its alpha " because this has nothing to do with what stage the game is in, more a long term concern. Please reply in a mature way with your take on it. My concern is the very krux of what this game is supposed to be about - Zombies. After the SA was anounced and the engine confirmed I had hopes that the Zombie situation would be sorted ( now or eventually ) as it wasnt using the stock arma 2 engine more a hybrid of TOH etc. Right now i have concerns that the zombie situation will never be sorted due to limitations of the engine, i feel we will never have the levels of gore / limb removal we have seen in many zombie games ( its what you would expect ) or have them not glitching through walls - The whole point of this game is Zombies << its called DayZ< for a reason, and as we know as they really pose no threat or seem to have any imagination thrown at them in terms of different types etc. I think this in turn has caused the game to really be just deathmatch with some survival thrown in. I dont have a great deal of knowledge in terms of the process of game development but me personally i would rather see Dayz with no content at all and have the zombie situation sorted, would be happier just having a knife and decent zombies, content like other guns etc could of always be added further down. I would be interested in other people take on this? do you really think we will have decent zombies one Day on SA or do you think like me that the game will always be limited by the engine it runs on?
