    Christmas Truce

    Ill bring the Beanz boys.... time for a Christmas feast
  3. TECHNICALLY "exploit" is actually the correct word.... cheating and hacking it is not however.... I do actually wonder WHY threads like these are even allowed... it just pure nonsensical garbage, around and around in circles, because everybody thinks that their OPINION is the only thing that matters.... Same story with the KoS threads, the Nighttime threads, the removal of the .50's..... at the end of the day, its up to the Dev's how this is dealt with, im pretty sure that they are aware of it, so lets leave it to them yea??
  4. Fine.... whatever, remove it... Go nuts.... Ill just go play the Mod... or Rust(fps only).... or Nether(fps only)... or the DayZish mod for A3, CS:S, CS:GO, Battlefield series, The list of First person only games is longer than my arm......
  5. Funny... i said something to this effect earlier... yet you disagree'd with me? :huh:
  6. Quoted from the DayZ Standalone wiki http://tinyurl.com/ouklymu I would say, that the dev's are not stupid, and would have learnt from the literally THOUSANDS of threads about this EXACT issue in relation to the mod... If they wanted it gone, they would have removed it by now.... Like i said earlier, you want First person only, fine... Make it a server option...
  7. We talking bout Standalone here, or the Mod??
  8. If Rocket & co thought the same as you, they never would have put third person in in the first place.... But thats ok, you keep telling yourself that your right, and that everyone who ever uses third person is the spawn of satan and/or just "doesn't know any better" thehet. To be honest, I'm surprised these "discussions" are even allowed.... given that every single one results in insults / flame wars and everybody's god complexes coming out to play :rolleyes:
  9. Your an idiot..... All it would do is make a whole lot of people stop playing..... And a whole lot of potential buyers put their wallets back in their pockets..... Control it on at the server level... Separate Hives ( if your that bloody sooky about it ) and be done with it.... So bloody tired of these same old pointless around-in-circles conversations.... same thing with KoS, same thing with the .50's, the vehicles and loot tables.... Stop trying to FORCE your style of play onto everyone else.....

    Zombies as a cure for KOS

    I agree in part, with this suggestion.... However.... It would be nice to have a few things fixed prior to implementation of a system like this IE: Zombies currently no-clipping through everything.....

    Rocket When did the Apocalypse Happen ?

    Personally, im not awfully fussed about the back story.... But there is something i would LOVE to know.... If this was a "real" ( real in-game ) apocalypse, then why in the name of god is EVERY BODIES BEDS STRIPPED goddammit <_< You cant honestly tell me everyone stopped their panicking to strip their beds....
  12. You even Read the OP dude.... Have another try.... But yes... Search function is god......

    How do i know where i spawn?

    If your on the coast, then check out the sign on the train station.... I dont personally have this issue ( or rather haven't yet ) but i guess thats just too long playing the mod.....
  14. If you dont have this problem, you must be playing without sound..... Im tired of sounding like a dirty old man in a womans yoga class after taking a single flight of stairs.... Interesting thought though.... Maybe Asthmatics were the only people immune to the infection :P

    Bleeding (Over Powered)

    I dont feel that AT THIS POINT bleeding is OP.... Lets be honest here.... How many of you have been infected yet?? And how many of you are like me, and search entire towns to find nothing but shoes and jeans?? I think that, until the Loot table has been "improved" to allow loot to spawn only where it is intended, and with enough frequency that i can stop dying of thirst before finding a drink, that the bleeding is fine, it compensates for the lack of "infection" and the lack of "infection" compensates for the lack antibiotics in most areas..... in short.... Leave the Bleeding as-is until the medical / loot / illness system has been improved and/or implemented....

    Global Banned...

    I wont comment on the ban itself.... But all you people raging about contacting BE support etc, OBVIOUSLY did not read this part..... And OP... Yes, you are global banned, and Unfortunatly WE ( these forums ) cannot help you.... But BE Support may.... Possibly....

    Adding .50s Back In

    I never said they would not, merely that it would not be cheap... But you stated that your Father currently holds all the licences.... So where does this "We" come from.... I dont really care what you've spent.... Coatsville right?? And i'm not lecturing, merely pointing out ( for those who Dont know ) a Very Basic run-down on how difficult it is to obtain those licences here... I would know, one of my close friends is a licencing officer for the Waikato region, and at one point was helping me get my own E Category licence, which i did not get in the end, due to a lack of home security ( Renting ) despite having actual military training in weapons handling and safety.... On-Topic however..... The AS50 in particular, despite being OP, I feel was substantially "un-authentic" in the DayZ environment... HOWEVER... There would have been suitable replacement weapons, had anybody been willing to put the time into creating the models and re-skinning a weapon.... Weapons such as the OSV-96 ( which coincidently doesn't look all that much different, and i believe there was quite a bit of support for the re-introduction of the Lapua aswell http://tinyurl.com/p3ohkcv

    Adding .50s Back In

    Im calling Bullshit on this one.... In order to obtain an AS50 on NZ soil, you MUST hold a CURRENT "E" Category firearms Licence.... which is a about a 6 month process, requiring a minimum of 4 referee's ( two of which must already hold "E" Cat licences ) aswell as have incredibly strong home security, and above all else you must prove it is necessary for you to own one, hunting and pest control do not count..... On top of the fact you would need a importers licence to bring one in yourself, or have an importer do it on your behalf.... and that wont be cheap... But i see you live in Coatsville.... So i guess the money wouldnt be an issue right ;)

    Cellular Phones/Electricity in General

    Fair point on that... The one thing communication-wise, that everybody seems to forget when it comes to post-apocalyptic times, is Satellite Phones... The Satellites are already up there, complete with access-permissions pre-loaded ( the service providers system merely uploads "updates" to those permissions as needed, so if you found an active one, there would be no service provider to tell the Satellite to ignore you ) and require for the most part, little to no maintenance... Although you would over time lose Satellites to faults/ Space debris/ rubbish and inevitably old-age, the system in itself should be good for quite awhile.... And Given that most Satellite phones are sold with/ are compatible with Car chargers, and we have cars/ vehicles... That solves the issue of charging the Terrestrial end of it... Also, as far as the Games ( mod and standalone ) go, if we can find working GPS systems, then Sat Phones are just as plausible, considering a GPS requires 3 Satellites to bounce signals off, not just the one ( for short-med distance ) calls on a Sat Phone....
  20. I would love it if spending long periods of time "prone" had a physical effect on your character.... I dont know about the rest of you, but if i spent 2 hours on my stomache under a tree while lookin down some gun sights... Well id be one seriously stiff jointed and slow moving person.... Perhaps even some vertigo effects would be good... Prone for too long + standing and running too quickly = dizziness and loss of balance...
  21. Try some of the stuff in on this page http://tinyurl.com/cu92cc4 I found it quite Useful.... Back when i was running my old pc, went from 8-15 fps in elektro to around 30-45.... Some of it wont make much of a difference, other parts will make a sizable difference..... and those different parts are very system-dependent. But overall, alot of what is in there should help out ;)

    HUD idea : Pleasure(satisfaction) indicator/bar

    Yea, as a rough idea i do like it... But i also disagree with the "happy meter" part... However, perhaps implementing a way to measure depression and having symptoms of that, which could be fixed by certain activities or items?

    HUD idea : Pleasure(satisfaction) indicator/bar

    Sorry Statik, but i disagree with with you here.... I can tell you now, Apocolypse or no, god help anyone or anything within 1 click of my person, should i start suffering nicotine withdrawls.... I do like the idea as a concept, but it would definatly take some work to implement...

    Option for Sound Output Device

    If your running Windows 7, then in your "sound Devices" settings, you can actually select your "default" sound devices for specific programmes... So if you have a secondary or "Virtual" device installed windows will recognize it as a separate device.... All you need to do is set your Headset as Default for Arma2 ( or whatever game you happen to be playing ) and set the Default device for your music programme, as the one that drives your speakers ( or Visa-versa) Does this help?
