  1. Now, I like a nice level of realism in games, but this would be a step to far. Some fine adjustment makes sense, but boresighting followed by check shots at 25m and then 100m before zeroing at desired range is too much. Let us not forget that DayZ allows us to swap engines, wheels and even main rotor assemblies between vehicles without any alignment or adjusted being required..

    5-10 FPS HELP!

    Can you post a screen shot of the in-game graphics settings "Advanced" options?

    what happen if SA sucks?

    I will photocopy my arse (in colour using A3 paper) and send it to Rocket.
  4. Can I Run It? is perfectly accurate as it gives you the specs needed to run that game. What we need is a resource called Is Game X Playable On My PC?..

    Can I Run DayZ Mod? (POST HERE)

    Nope. SSD = Solid State Drive
  6. terminal_boy

    Low FPS just in DayZ

    Dual core CPU + ArmA 2 = :(

    Why no Zombie children again?

    Who said it was? Remembering how Black Isle had to patch the children out of the UK version of Fallout 2 after a media "outcry", I can see how killing zombie kids in the SA would play out.

    Why no Zombie children again?

    Because: 1. UK media hates games and loves a "Playing CoD Black Ops made me rape a dolphin!" headline. It also diverts attention from stories about the media being up to no good. 2. Politicians love the above as they can make useful sound bites along the lines of "Ban this sick filth!" which diverts attention from their being caught fiddling the taxpayer and/or fiddling with a rent boy.

    Why no Zombie children again?

    Add Germany and the UK to that list as the tabloid press will go spastic.
  10. RPM and L1 cache size of your HDD? I'm guessing you re-used the HDD from your original rig... ArmA streams textures from your HDD, so a slow one = unhappy ArmA

    More FPS on Dayz

    Anyone who thinks that the GT 440 isn't holding that system back needs to look at this.. http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/video_lookup.php?gpu=GeForce+GT+440

    Standalone: Foreign Weaponry

    Because there's no reasonable scenario that would lead to an AUG or a wooden stocked M14 being in Chernarus.

    Standalone: Foreign Weaponry

    I guess I should be used to the "Why can't I have a mini gun / rail gun / Gold Deagle?" threads by now, but they really annoy me as seeing any of those weapons in the SA would ruin any immersion for me. You do indeed still need a defence under the VCRA to purchase RIFs.

    Standalone: Foreign Weaponry

    I don't think people appreciate the level of gun control in place in former Soviet satellite states. A Party member in good standing might be allowed to have a shotgun or hunting rifle if they had access to land to use it on. Even then, having a non-Soviet block weapon was impossible for all but the Party elite. Short of what got dropped by Western forces operating in the area, the only likely foreign weaponry to be had would be German WW2 kit providing that Chernarus was invaded/occupied in WW2.

    Phased plasma rifle in the 40 Watt range or GTFO!

    Will Dayz standalone come to Mac

    Eww. I wouldn't use that to wash my driveway.

    Putting an End to "Can I run it?"

    "Can I run it?' is very useful for 2 main reasons: 1. It helps people with very poor PCs from having a terrible DayZ experience and slagging the mod off to all and sundry. 2. It helps people with decent PCs figure out which one of the many "make DayZ run like frozen poop" options they have set by accident via the in-game graphics options (and in Catalyst Control Centre).

    PBR = Patrol Boat, Riverine?

    Will Dayz standalone come to Mac

    I'm trying to wangle one of the new Pros as I run a lot of post-processing scripts at work. If I do get one, you better believe I'll try DayZ on it.
  20. £24.99 and not a penny more!
  21. Any clan, group or server that gives perks/status/rank/better equipment in return for donations should be avoided.

    You know you play DayZ too much...

    Have we done "When you refuse to go near any metal gates or large rocks" yet?
  23. 1. Run deep into the woods. 2. Figure out the new inventory system in safety. 3. Start looking for loot while figuring out how smart/fast/aware the Zeds are. 4. Die. 5. Die some more.

    Military safe zones in the SA?

    Seeing the epic bellthronkery and rampant backpack theft that goes on in Trader Zones, I think Military SZs would be a very bad idea.

    Excessive military loot

    M14 AIM is the best close to mid range weapon in the game. Accurate and deadly.
