Is there an ETA on ambient sounds ?
terminal_boy replied to TheLast-StaR's topic in General Discussion
That's other peoples sounds you're hearing, set to a global output as opposed to your personal output, ever noticed how much more frequently it happens the more players there are on that server? Is that a bug or did someone actually decide it was a good idea? -
This has been a feature of ArmA graphics since at least A2. Turning down some qualities and textures moves graphics load from GPU to CPU.

terminal_boy replied to TheLast-StaR's topic in General Discussion
Have you ever been out in the woods miles from the nearest farm or road? Random gate noises and soda cans being opened don't occur naturally. If you hear a branch snapping, it's because it fell from a tree or someone/something just stepped on it. -
Start with all Textures and Qualities on High. Video Memory on Auto. Disable the following: - Anti-Aliasing - V-Sync - Post-Processing Set-up MSI Afterburner so you can see FPS, VRAM and GPU Usage in OSD. Tweak settings to give the best appearance without dropping frame rate too much.

Isn't this the official DayZ forum? One might think that such information could be found here, wouldn't one?

You could launch firework rockets from a 4 foot section of drainpipe with less dispersion than that...

It's ribbed for your pleasure...

Logging into my regular server to find it's night.

It doesn't feel like I'm in an apocalypse?

Don't be daft, the SA has sunny days. -
OP has SAOAFR Syndrome. Look more, run less.

Low FPS, Computer Crashes. Need Help!
terminal_boy replied to energeticsheep's topic in Troubleshooting
The problem with turning all the details and qualities down to Low or Disabled is that the game actually adds load to your CPU. As the SA isn't very kind to the faster 4 core AMD CPUs, I'm not surprised that it's being mean to your old, slow dual core. May I just ask why you're using a GTX 770 to play at 800 x 600 resolution? -
You know, I've spent hours tinkering with the video settings in DayZ and still can't find any setting that goes up to "Ultra"...

Where can i buy/download the game ?
terminal_boy replied to MadXterm's topic in New Player Discussion
Normal for Norfolk... -
As much as I tend to agree with you, there are BIG warnings regarding the game not being finished on its Steam Page, so it's not like you weren't expecting features to be broken/not implemented.
-
Or until there's a satchel charge I can leave near the goal..

No, no and no.

Well, there's this little thing called parallax that turns telescopes (like the one you've suggested improvising) into poop unless you have both lens aligned perfectly. And while duct tape is epically good at sticking stuff together, it's rather unlikely to hold your device together and/or to a full bore rifle under recoil.

Having at least one real city in the map
terminal_boy replied to massacrorBKK's topic in Suggestions
Different countries have different criteria about what a city is. In England, you need a cathedral to be a city. In the USA, I've driven through cities where the "Welcome to..." and "You are leaving.... Please come again!" signs on the main highway are just a block apart. -
Nice idea and absolutely base-level feature on all commercial and military GPS devices.

Couple of Questions about Zombies Etc
terminal_boy replied to Pixel Crisis's topic in New Player Discussion
Attack zombies from behind with a firefighter's axe and aim for the head. You may have to score 2-3 good head hits now to kill them. Always fight them outside to avoid wall glitching and always on level ground as they can run like Usain Bolt uphill while your player shambles along. -
Your most frustrating moments.
terminal_boy replied to GenericSurvivor's topic in General Discussion
This. Trying to outrun re-spawning zombies as the melee damage has been nerved is bad enough as a slight slope slows you, but not the zombies down to a walk. And then you get rubber banded/desynced back into their midst just when you think you've got away. You get clawed twice and everything on you is ruined, but a zombie can take fire axe to the head times 3...
