Would does "survivor" means at front page of website?
rossums replied to gotr1ght's topic in General Discussion
A survivor is just a player - they are surviving the zombie outbreak. It means 858,850 players have purchased the game. -
This will just cause far too many problems with abuse. Zombies by design follow a specific set of rules, they aren't smart enough to set traps - they run after players to eat them. There really isn't a way to transfer this control over to a player and retain the same 'dumbed down' persona that embodies a zombie, if you can go where YOU want, you're not a zombie.

Fists are useful enough for now, what would a kick add that a punch in the head couldn't?

I will meet you on the field of battle on the testing server. Pistols at high-noon.

We need a new name for KOS bandits, Fudds
rossums replied to [email protected]'s topic in General Discussion
In the real world honor doesn't mean shit, why would it be any different for DayZ? -
Could we have servers that don't respawn loot?
rossums replied to Iain365's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
It wouldn't work unless it was part of a seperate private hive. Players would just join fully kitted out which defeats the entire purpose behind the limited loot. -
It shouldn't be the drivers, I have the latest stable Nvidia drivers and I'm getting very good performance. I'm running on a Retina Macbook Pro through Bootcamp and the machine only has a 2GB GT750m but it gives me a nice constant 30+ FPS (Normally hovering around 40-50ish) on high (1680x1050)
-
The vast majority of that will most definitely be added.

If you're talking about on the forums, you will have to private message an Administrator and ask nicely. (not a Moderator) If you're talking about in-game, you just change your Steam display name through the Steam client.
-
It should. Make sure your resolution in Windows is set correctly, Right-Click on your Desktop and select 'Screen Resolution' and ensure the Resolution is as high as it should be.

Why would you play DayZ, a game where player interaction is a VERY big part and not have the threat of other players? It's seems a little pointless, don't ya think? That's like Pokémon without the wild Pokémon encounters. __ As for characters, one is more than enough, characters will have even less value if you die and have the ability to just jump on another character straight away and get back into the fight.
-
All that spawn selection does is allow players to run back to their bodies and harass their killers instead of just accepting they were killed and moving on. I'd like the spawns to be in more remote locations that are set for a certain time period to prevent people just killing themselves until they spawn where they want.

Fully kitted out and I still wear my yellow raincoat. When I roll, I roll in style (and stay dry!). It's quite funny occasion, especially when I hear shots, prone with a nice view in some bushes then remember I'm wearing a bright yellow raincoat.
-
You can find weapons all over the map, the military areas are still some of the best. It's all luck of the draw, I'm afraid - or maybe someone else has already had a look round and taken some of the heavier weapons.
-
It's in the Settings under the 'Video' section.
-
And now that not much work was done over Christmas to it it's scary to look at.
-
KoS isn't something that should be 'fixed'. KoS isn't the problem, the players are the problem - they KoS because they are scared to lose their gear and so they just shoot first before anyone gets the chance to be a problem. The only way to remedy this is make it not worth it to just start popping shots off without negatively impacting yourself.

If you are BE banned in Arma III it carries over. That's what you get for being a naughty boy. The GUID is related to your Steam ID.
-
It's a bug. The developers are aware and it will be sorted.

[Suggestion] Multiple character and Separate "hardcore" and "casual" characters and servers
rossums replied to Taesh's topic in General Discussion
One of the good things about DayZ is that it ISN'T a totally casual game, it's meant to be hard - that's what makes it fun and challenging. -
Will Dayz Standalone be on Steam Holiday sale?
rossums replied to Hoplit's topic in General Discussion
DayZ will NOT be in the Steam sale. -
Which is explicitly against the rules and is considered cheating:
-
I didn't say you were being a dick, I was giving an example, it's was just coincidentally relevant. I was pointing out that you saying 'Oh I knew someone was going to say that' doesn't make it wrong. edit: You knew what sort of reaction you were going to get, that's what the childish opening statement says. If you are using one account to feed another account gear it completely goes against the spirit of the game and you're using it to circumvent the 'One character per server' mechanic which gives characters value in the first place.
-
Nonsense. In some games, multiple accounts are purposefully allowed (They explicitly allow you to create multiple characters on the same account and trade between them). i.e. World of Warcraft On some other games it's explicitly against the rules as cheating, i.e. Runescape.
