There seems to have been a huge gfx performance drop with the latest updates. The one before .55 had it as well, but the one before that was smooth as butter. Definitely has something to do with texture handling as I've never had texture pop in on me. But, with .55, I get zombies that have LOD issues, fences that show up without textures (grey/white walls), and just general low fps in towns. I only run a 680 SC and I've had no major issues until the patch before .55 and .55 itself.

Actually, they must've rebooted the server. We had a truck that was at half gasoline. When we were able to log back onto it, the two SOG guys were gone and the truck was full of gas. Same location we left it after we got kicked.

I thought so myself... it should be a private hive if they want to have their own pow-wows...

I thought that if a server was public, admins weren't supposed to kick people off for no reason? I had 3 friends with me on the ~SOG~ |Bringing Friendly Back| server on the 3/27/2015 16 10:40 CST and they kicked all of us to leave only Arrrow ~SOG~ and Yama ~SOG~ on the server. This is the server: http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/45.58.113.34:2302/ We did nothing wrong. We had a truck and were driving to meet up with 2 of our friends that were separated and right as we met up, they kicked us all of. When we rejoined they kicked us again? "Bringing Friendly Back"... Not so much.

I don't think it's related to joining max pop servers... it could be... but I've seen servers hanging/freezing like that on low pop as well. I was on a server last night with 8/30 and ended up getting stuck in a truck because the server crashed without any indicator it had done so (i.e. no message received for n seconds). I'm guessing there's a memory leak somewhere as it causes the client to crash as well. I think the client and server crashes are related.

Actually, it's better when its wet, because it doesn't get snagged on every little twig... plus it depends on if it's a full ghillie, a patrol ghillie (i.e. how long it is). Is it heavier... sure. But, who looks at realism in this game when you dehydrate in a half an hour....

Gotcha. Yeah, when I first got assigned to STA 3/5, the H&S Co commander asked what I wanted to do at 3/5 and I told him this was my first time with a grunt unit and wasn't sure. He first offered me Lima Co (boat crews) but they had a full complement. Then Kilo (helos) and I asked if there was anything else. He then told me STA had an opening for a corpsman coming up, but I had no clue what that was. He clarified that it was Scout Sniper Platoon and I immediately volunteered for it. Never did I spend my time with a more awesome group than those guys. Small group, worked well with all the companies and other outfits and all of them were an extremely humble bunch of guys... you would never be able to tell that any of those guys were a cut above the rest. Lots of competition between all of us in STA though... on a more fun level though... not like politics wise... ;) All of that was in 1994... ;) Yeah... I'm old. xD

Yeah... :) You? I guess STA has been deprecated? I hope they still have Scout Sniper Platoons...?!? It'd be a shame for them to be integrated into the companies now.

Well lets put it this way... after that patch version was applied, friends and I have put in LOADS of hours and after some time we noticed an immediate change. So, something WAS applied... whether version number changed or not... that's up to the devs to do. I have a LOT of time into DayZ SA and I can definitely tell stuff is off...

A little disappointed that small updates are being done to stable but no word from any developers. No recent word at all when the next update is possibly going to happen OR what is being silently added to stable. Stuff has changed for sure, because my toon is thirsting and getting hungry much faster now... very unrealistic imo...

You can also stop dying from bad food by inducing vomiting. Just make sure you at least have food to stop from starving after the vomiting (I assume you'll be near a well so you'll have plenty of hydration).

Yep... doesn't work so well in writing at times.

Because that wasn't a reddit post. That was a forum post... that's what a forum is for. Thanks for posting here Bautschi...

The LRS actually has an accuracy change, and afaik had it for a while, when damaged. iirc the more damaged the LRS the more the rifle pulls to the left. Personally any scope, when worn shouldn't have too much of any issue... but once damaged and badly damaged should definitely some issues. Badly damaged should be nigh unusable other than to sight in with. There should be some indicator visually that something is off... i.e. maybe a bad refraction off the lens for the LRS or something... cracked lens? In some cases a damaged scope should be able to be fixed when worn to get it back to pristine... however I think damaged and badly damaged it should be out of reach for people to fix. There's a lot that goes into scopes that the average layperson would NEVER be able to fix without the proper tools. Weapon cleaning kits should also get weapons back into pristine... not take a pristine weapon into worn... that's just ludicrous. Damaged and Badly Damaged weapons should also be extremely difficult to repair. Maybe a damaged scope would require multiple uses from a pristine weapon kit (which gets used up entirely on a damaged weapon), but a badly damaged weapon is pretty much non-recoverable... i.e. completely rusted, bent/cracked barrel etc...

Yeah OP is totally off the mark. Food does replenish and there's 2 stages of regaining blood. Low which is when Energized and Hydrated are just green and High which is when Energized and Hydrated are both like a brighter green. It's easy to regain blood... if you aren't regaining blood, then you are doing it wrong. :)
