Respawning Loot? Why with server restart every 4 hours. we do not need it.
Leto (DayZ) replied to Dekawar's topic in General Discussion
People will do whatever is easier. If you spawn in Elektro and the city has been picked clean, switching to another server takes 15 seconds while hiking to say, Staroye, will take at least 30 minutes. It's delusion to think most players will choose to walk out of sheer dedication to "how the game should be played". -
It's easier and faster to alt-tab to dayzdb.com than using the current in-game map (even if it's complete).

Leto (DayZ) replied to Dekawar's topic in General Discussion
The system in the mod wasn't perfect, by it was miles ahead of what we have right now. The current system encourages server hopping as you just know that buildings with open doors will have nothing of value in them. All it takes is 3 or 4 thorough players searching the city and there is nothing left in Elektro or Cherno for 4 hours. -
I for one would love to see more .22lr weapons. It would require many rounds to take someone down and some firefights might actually last more than 2 seconds. As for debating the effectiveness of .22lr... It's the zombie apocalypse. You are unarmed and enter a house where you find a 10/22 and a box of 500 rds. You wouldn't take it?

I dont understand why there is no AUTO RUN KEY!!!

I use my cell phone and rest it on top of the sprint button. -
Last time I checked, handguns had no conditions.

The magnum is a little too common now

I have yet to find ammunition for the revolver. -
Gore for zombies only to enhance our experience?
Leto (DayZ) replied to [email protected]'s topic in General Discussion
Before getting to that, I'd like to see some realistic bleeding on the players. The "fountains of blood" currently in the game are silly. We need actual stains that spread over the clothes. -
I don't mind it, I like finding a isolated house and taking the time to eat while sorting my gear.

Shouldn't headlights by aimed at the center of the screen?
Leto (DayZ) posted a topic in General Discussion
I understand that in "real life", you usually adjust your headlight to see whats on the ground ahead of you, but it doesn't translate well in DayZ. Right now that makes searching around and aiming quite difficult as the light is aimed below the center of the screen. If you try to aim at a zombie in pitch black darkness, you simply won't see it unless it's right in your face. -

So headlamps are as useless as the flashlight. I hope they add chemlights soon. -

Leto (DayZ) replied to Leto (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I'm talking about headlamps, not flashlights. If you are aiming a weapon, you can't use that command to raise the headlamp, which is pointing at the ground and not ahead. -

An Issue with the New Spawns AKA "The Kamyshovo Massacre"
Leto (DayZ) replied to wgaf's topic in General Discussion
What you suggest would be true if DayZ was happening just days after the zombie outbreak, But judging by the state of abandonned vehicles, it has been months if not years. So military gears should be scattered around a bit. Do all the players who find military gears stay in military area until they die? No, they move around. In fact, if servers never had resets and left dropped gear on the ground, The military area would be the last places where you would find the gear. -
An Issue with the New Spawns AKA "The Kamyshovo Massacre"
Leto (DayZ) replied to wgaf's topic in General Discussion
When more civilian weapons are added, I hope this is where they will spawn, but rarely. I think the Makarov, Lee Enfield, Winchester and double barrel shotguns were a bit too common in the mod. -
It seems like you should be warned that your food smells funny if you inpsect it. Disinfectant stinks. Maybe this will be added later.

Generally how many FPS are you guys getting?
Leto (DayZ) replied to Jayissuperman's topic in General Discussion
My i7 is from the first generation that came out 4-5 years ago. It's probably bottlenecking my rig. http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Core+i7+920+%40+2.67GHz -
Pro-tip: Mosin Nagant often spawn in wrecked car that you can interact with (like the GAZ), Check the front seat, back seat and trunk.
-
Nothing too rare, you can find all this stuff if you visit a military area after a reset or at least before others have taken everything. This is what most competent players end up looking like if they don't get shot before finding a gun.

I have yet to find a map or pistol magazine.

Leto (DayZ) replied to Jayissuperman's topic in General Discussion
Core i7 920 GTX 670 Mostly high settings, no bloom or post processing. I get 40fps most of the time, drops in the 20s in cities or near the big apartments buildings north of Cherno. -
Where is everyone? NW Airfield not a hotspot anymore?
Leto (DayZ) replied to Denzje's topic in General Discussion
Balota has at least 20 military tents and buildings. There is a military base just north of Kamenka. So there is little reason to hike all the way to NWAF right now. -
Okay here's the problem : Gear Hoarding
Leto (DayZ) replied to onebadbasterd's topic in General Discussion
There is absolutely nothing else to play for right now. No vehicles, no base. Lots of features missing. So seeking gear and a M4A1 is the only goal. -
The future importance of hunting, cooking, the northlands and rare items (with pics!)
Leto (DayZ) replied to serenityrick's topic in General Discussion
That's because they expanded the military area at Balota, added a military base north of Kamenka and removed the military tents at Berezino. Quite a mistake IMHO. -
Night time In Dayz SA and your thoughts?
Leto (DayZ) replied to BlackDalia's topic in General Discussion
Night time sucks because flashlights suck. The stand alone has the same issues as the mod; flashlights produce cones of light outside of which everything is black. The light is not reflected or diffused which is simply wrong. Especially indoor. It's like walking with a box on your head and looking through a hole.
