The designer got it wrong then as it's killed a metric fucktonne of humans since the mid 1960s.

Could have been worse... An England World Cup qualifying match for example.
-
The dispersion model for the M4 in this game is seven sorts of broken. It would be bad for an AK that was last maintained when Putin was a boy...

There's a civilian Mi-8 near the beached freighter that you can crawl inside.

Overcl Overclocking your CPU will help, but that should run Medium to High settings at a very playable framerate. I don't think Xfire or SLI are supported yet, so expect one GPU to be near idle and the other at 100%.

Why is der a F****** hide body function!?!?!
terminal_boy replied to Fre4krider's topic in General Discussion
If that shallow grave became a persistent container that anyone could open/close with a shovel until server restart, that would be very neat. -
How Big Is The Day Z Developer Team?
terminal_boy replied to 360Nation's topic in General Discussion
Exactly. There is nothing that screws up a development project as surely as throwing people and money at it without planning where these are needed. -
The Rift is a great technology demonstrator and I'm sure they'll figure how to get the kinks out of it. Getting it to an immersive resolution which doesn't make you chunder for under $500 is going to be some challenge.

terminal_boy replied to Fre4krider's topic in General Discussion
This. Drag the body into the bushes and loot it. THEN bury/hide it if you have a shovel. -
Yep, strips of any material that's going to make you blend into the background or break up your silhouette.

Hey...I see you....put your hands up.....

The Ruger MKII Is Coming, But Whats It Like?
terminal_boy replied to leefriendfield's topic in General Discussion
Especially that US SoF have something better for dealing with sentries this millennium. -
Not regretted it in the slightest.

Hush, or you'll start them off again... ;)

Can we have a Zombucks in every town please? Spiced Beans Latte might be real popular...

Will We Ever Be Able To Have At Least 40 FPS In Cities and Everywhere
terminal_boy replied to 360Nation's topic in General Discussion
Unfortunately, cities in RV Engine games cause very high CPU loading which isn't shared very well across physical cores and the engine doesn't make use of logical/HT cores. All of which favours the unlocked i5 and i7 CPUs at the moment. -
Post your PC specs, in game settings and FPS here
terminal_boy replied to Caboose187 (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Are talking about ArmA 3 of BF4, because Very High is the top setting in my copy of the SA? -
Cities will drag you down to the mid-30s like they do for everyone else, but you'll 40+ better everywhere else.
-
That'll play DayZ very nicely on High to Very High. Ramping up AA will still drag the frame rate down rapidly though. Expect 30-40 FPS in cities. Until someone plays DayZ on a Cray 2 or similar, no-one gets gets better than this with Details and Textures turned up at 1920 x 1080.

Had this with every RV Engine game using ATI/AMD cards. 4970, 6850, 7870, 7950 and lately R9 290. Tried every in-game and CCC option, but the grass looks like a trellis/waffle the instant ATOC is enabled.

Can someone get me some links to build a pc that can run days SA?
terminal_boy replied to Michael_42's topic in General Discussion
An excellent suggestion if you know where to get good secondhand parts without getting burned. -
The problem with Gen 1 NV is that it doesn't really work that well unless it's a cloudless night with a bright moon or you use an IR light source. And using an IR source where others have NV is suicide.

terminal_boy replied to Michael_42's topic in General Discussion
^ This. Wait until you have $1000 to spend and do plenty of research into what components people posting good performance stats here use. The added advantage of waiting a while is that we're due some performance optimisation in the game soon and this could reduce how much you need to spend to get a rig that will play the SA at a good frame rate with the graphics set at Medium or better. -
I stand corrected. Thanks for posting that. I based my comments on my experience of tweaking SA graphics on a co-workers PC i5 2300 (stock clocks) and HD6850 (stock clocks) and didn't consider switching down from 1920 x 1080 as I've gamed at this resolution for so long.

Those Steam specs should be labelled as follows: Minimum Spec: PowerPoint slideshow Recommended Spec: Hope you like 15 FPS. In the woods.
