I think basicly we now have hardcore mode on a seprate hive. So your hardcore toon wont carry to normal servers. And that private hive servers are still bieng worked on ;)

I wonder how many others are stuck, seems a bit unfair that you should need to buy a new key. Maybe this is a good sale thread for unlocking the respawn button.....just while things are unstable. I mean isnt locking it a gameplay feature....to stop people doing it for desiese and stuff. We can live without gameplay features at this stage. Especialy if it means people are having to resort to such extreme measures. :(

have you tried jumping around a few servers, theres a lot out there that will start you fresh. Something to do with maintaining connection to the hive. Might save you buying another copy.

Welcome to DA Hello my name is Matt.....and im a Dayz addict. I knew i needed help when i called in sick to play Dayz. Iv been sober for nearly 12 whole hours......AND I CARNT WAIT TO PLAY AGAIN!!!!! :)

Id like to see a dynamic heli/plane crash. The plane or heli could limp around in a flight path that gives most of the map a chance to see it, then ditch somewhere. It would be smoking obviously damaged with the alarm going off for everyone to hear. The idea is that the players would all see it and try to follow, could end up in some great group confrontations. Imagine 2 well armed groups both track the heli and arrive at about the same time....oh yeaaahh....its on! :)

Too many vehicles leads to the whole hoarder mentality. Im guilty of it myself, fix a car....stick it by my tent....but as soon as the tent overflows and the car holds loot thats it. I wont take it out again, next time i go out is to find another car....and the cycle continues. Also tacticaly when given the choice id always travel on foot for the concealment factor. Cars are just bullet magnates. I think a low car count would be good, with more emphasis on pushbikes....or maybe even ridable animals. As far as helis go i would like to keep them out of SA. As another person said, if you have a heli it takes about 10mins to check all the map boarders for camps. Then fly the grid to check the mainland, another 10 mins. Thats why on the mod i would just gear up on food and drink, hit the map edges, and look for camps or the holy grail....AKA the huey ;)

Yeah i think less lethal appeals to me more because i like to play friendly. Id rather incap a bandit and disarm them, than kill. I hadn't thought of it as a way to preserve gear, that's a great idea though.

Comparing mouse accel to bug is a bit odd to me. I wouldnt want any of those "bugs" in sa, i do however want this "feature" to stay. Moving around with full gear for real is clunky, go load a large bag with heavy gear and try to spin on the spot quickly, like in an FPS game.....the bag will completly throw your balance and you will probably end up on your ass. That dosent even take into account the gun weight and the footwork involved in a 180 to a stable firing position. For me removing it is dumming the games simulator elements down, making it just another FPS. Keep dayz unique, keep it as a simulator.

Sprint is obviously an alpa bug. No way we will be doing that when the game actually releases. 3rd is a compensator for spacial awareness, something we all have but no game engine can ever simulate.

Hi there. Yep according to rocket the zombies are infected humans, not undead or anything. Its a virus, and us survivors are immune to it :)

Would you want it as a normal fps game? stupid 720 spins with 1 drag of the mouse? Its not as bad as people make out. It was designed to be as realistic as possible, not to pander to the masses that want every game to feel the same.....unrealistic,film inspired tripe. If this takes normal fps gamers out of there comfort zone then its doing its job.

Search "auto walk key". Might need some limitations but im all for it :)

The view dosent go up and down when turning in 1st person....do all my looting and gunplay in 1st and iv never experianced that. And moving in free look should feel easier, you are only moving your head, not your whole body. Even in free look its not raw input either, thats because IRL you carnt just snap your head around like you can in common fps games....let alone your whole body. There needs to be a diffrerence in the free look and 1st cams. The only people who moan about this are the ones that try to move like CS....find they carnt....then keep trying to adjust settings, or move the mouse quicker every time, wondering whats going on. Just move it slow once and you will see that its works great. You just have to stay controlled and precise and you will be fine. Start twitching out like your playing some arcade "one size fits all" shooter and this military simulator will kick you in the ass! :)

Just find some safe servers, bookmark em and use only those. If ya wanna be sure then just hit change server every time ya wanna play and select a trusted one. Dont know about this database wipe though, my guy is still ok and hes more than a week old now. Acctually hes more like 2 weeks or more lol, had him well before christmas. I dunno why so many are loosing toons. BTW i play on Fox company gaming, since day1. Never lost a toon there atall.

I just made a poll for a suggestions board lol...... http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/162000-suggestions-board-for-sa/

How can i put this....make a thread....discuss your issue, or kindly fuck off (il take a warning for that mods, i just couldnt resist :P)

Dunno if its already been "suggested"...no pun intended lol Could we have a suggestions board like for the mod? Or is this to make us use the bug tracker more?

If you completly dissable this you will make 1st person feel like L4D or Counterstrike, easy as hell to use, but gamey and unnatural. Just all nut up, slow ya roll when turning around and enjoy. This engine was made to simulate REAL firefights taking place over hundreds of metres, not 60 players in a map the size of cherno, where you have to be able to spin in a split second because its "fun". Learn some tactical awareness and neg accell will never bother you. OMG devs....put that in!! ^^

Id like that for when radios work. But jamming 3rd party could have issues. What if a couple of people are right next to each other but, say 50m from you. They should still be able to use there TS, because they are close enough to just talk to eachother. But if it was just for the in-game radios then yeah, because if it happened they would just have to run to direct comms range. EDIT - If the walkies work the way i hope, we would be able to piggyback a channel and eavsdrop on people. So you could simulate it by just playing something really loud over there channel at the right moment ;)

2x scope + duct tape :D

This is a great distraction tool, we used to play recordings of huge arma 2 battles trough direct when storming a building as a group. The confusion factor helps tremendously. Not experienced it in SA yet but will be using it for sure ;)

But but....24 hour cycle....realism....booooo! I can see the allure of a shorter day night but that's a real immersion breaker for me. 1 hour of night just dosent seem worth it lol. I like the idea of the servers being locked to all the same time, but yeah without the short day night its unfair on others. Grrrr theres gotta be a way to get em playing at night but keep immersion.....wait....private hives!! If your server was your home you would have no choice but to play at night. For me that's the best solution, make each server private and you cure night play, ghosting, server hopping, low pop gearing, (and with a good loot spawn timer) farming aswell. If they did add shorter cycle id say no shorter that 50% so 6 hours each 12 hour full day.

For me we defo need this. The plethora of make shift solutions just proves that. It could be restricted somehow, either trough the stamina system punishing you, or a simple you can only auto-run for 3 mins then you have to hit it again. Anything to save that tendon in my wrist burning from holding the damn W key. It would just make the experience more user friendly (I know, not exactly the dayz ethos), and stop all the improvised ways of achieving it. Also if you don't want it....no problem....unbind and forget :)

Personally I love Cyberpower for pc's. They build it for you so no need to worry, but you pick and choose all your components. So your getting the best of both worlds. Just google cyberpower, and pick one of the configurators, or check out whats on sale :)

That rig sounds fine. Im on a 7770 and I don't get those kind of drops. Sure the 1/2 extra power leads are in the top of the card? His old one might not of used them. Maybe try, Is PC in high performance mode Is grapichs card in high performance mode Does Motherboard have a boost function? if so try that on Check all the cables (especially those top 2 power jacks) Try lowering res (im at 720p with r7770, getting way over 30 in wilderness, mid-high 20's in citys) EDIT - Oh yeah and as others have said, drivers.....its always a driver issue lol
