    HAHAHAHA Oh geez, look who's playing:

    If you went to work for a competitor as their emergency mouth piece to keep their tiny community from revolting, then made videos on the game your game admittedly and blatantly copied in a casual(lazy) fashion, I would. Be like if the head of Apples PR department filmed himself using his personal PC. (or vice versa) To give a better understanding, his showcased video on his profile is the official look at ISS's california map...

    Bambi Killings - Episode 1

    Because Quebec is always talking about seperating and becoming it's own country, lol. So it's not ALL french canadians... just like, half

    Can openers LOL

    Sometimes it seems I see 5-7 of them in a row while looting... You probably don't see them because people have a higher propensity to pick them up vs. a two slot knife/screw driver that will degrade.
  4. If you couldn't tell by 90% of the posts in this topic by the same 5-6 people; neither the fact dean has discussed this in some detail (hint: it's not going anywhere because even Dean likes third person, but it will be tweaked at some point), or the that this is an early alpha will dissuade them from their "My way is right and anyone who disagrees is a baby/douche/asshole/bambi/fodder/retard" way of discussion.
  5. meh... I like it just because it makes it harder for camping bored kids via making it akin to the real world skill of marksmanship... Also, fatigue system will make a reappearance when it's tweaked from what's been said. To those saying "we're survivors bro, not military" -- that's the point. As of now the game boils down the complex nature of taking accurate long range shots to easy mode one touch instant zeroing. I'd like to see half of you try to sight a high powered scope, then switch the zero another 400m farther and see how accurate it is off the bat. I believe you should be required to fine tune the zero on scopes, requiring you to properly sight the scope to where you want it, meaning putting a couple rounds down range. This makes scopes more skill based with a learning curve, instead of just a flat out upgrade to the weapon to be abused by campers. With damage to the scope comes the potential for said zero to shift, requiring you to re-sight the weapon, or compensate on the fly. Game is about risk reward, and the high powered rifle scope is all reward atm, with no risk.

    Nemesis Arms Vanquish Rifle

    Not to mention the 20+ thousand of them around the world + the massive quantity of 54r surplus ammo in circulation. This weapon on the other hand, makes little sense, other than catering to whiny camping sniper fags more than the mosin. There are literally thousands of weapons I'd add over another sniper scum weapon. Edit: I'm drunk and it's christmas, sorry mods.

    Nemesis Arms Vanquish Rifle

    Ridiculous precision firearms like these make no sense in game. Even from an "authentic" pov. Might as well add a WA2000 if we're going to add impratical bullshit. Not only are there not enough to even be feasible, but it adds to the douchey fuck headed sniper gear. 1,000 and 1 better options than garbage like this for snipers to again dominate the game. Just stupid.

    Soooo...

    I made the mistake of using steam overlay on a ladder in the elevator shafts behind balota... :huh: Game bugged out, I apparently instantly died, then couldn't respawn to go find my body. Just got a "please wait" screen multiple times. :| :( :blush: oh well ^_^ time to do it all again.

    Soooo...

    qftw I still cringe when I vault into things out of habbit.
  10. Or you guys can go circle jerk on your eventual fp only servers. Edit: people need to stop trying to cram their point of view down the throat of the rest of the community who would rather see a retooled tpv than a flat out removal to please whiners.

    The shittiest thing just happenend to me!

    Yeah I've had this happen randomly. I just avoid windows entirely now.
  12. Would the hell too. I have 300+ rounds and my m4 at the ready when looting. If you surprise me, I will fill you full of holes thinking: A ) You're a zombie. They're bad. B ) You're some douchnozzle about to axe me in the back. For as many people who you think exploit 3rd person to gain an advantage in combat, just as many use it to avoid combat, like myself. Also, you're more likely to be robbed if the would be robber feels he can get the drop, rather than shot due to the abundance of unknown factors he's going through.
  13. They don't disappear unless you're on a higher floor, as sometimes they fall through the floor you're on -- other than that, if you drag something and it disappears, the server is just chugging a bit in processing the request. Edit: beat by hest --- bahhumbug So just wait for up to thirty to forty seconds (if you can)

    DayZ for OUYA?

    That's actually a free android market app for any android tablet with the right specs -- IE the same shit as an ouya without having to buy an ouya... a joke of a "console" It's just a screenless phone/tablet with a tegra 3 and an hdmi output -- which i'm pretty sure is already outdated, meaning you'd do better to get the free shit on a more powerful tablet.
  15. Can you anti-third person people piss off and let the man attempt to tweak it or wait for fp only servers? What sense does it make forcing your opinions down every one else's throats?

    I'm so lucky: I'm O+

    First kill (Standalone)

    Use a shovel... it's a very ineffective killer... just remember to work fast because they can get back up after a couple seconds the first couple times you knock them down.

    In-game Physics. Explain?

    Because it almost doesn't. lmao

    SLI/Crossfire Support

    I just use the second card for AA and AA transparency.

    First kill (Standalone)

    Beat a guy with a shovel. Both saw a mosin and an axe in the stairway landing of the hospital -- he went for it, I went for him. Thought he was dead until he started getting back up, where-in I proceeded to beat him again. And to my surprise, he still wasn't dead. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iS383gEdb_g So I beat him down again, and took the axe he had grabbed and proceeded to finish the deed.

    In-game Physics. Explain?

    There are no real physics in the engine. That would require DX11, which may or may not come in the future. It would take close to a year to implement.
  22. Who ever compared this to the War Z needs to be shot. WarZ ripped Dayz off Rushed to launch before Dayz when release was just going to be an updated version of the mod - Build didn't even work on release. Charged up to $60 for content that still isn't in the game. False banned thousands of players on multiple occasions without a sorry or even notification they were unbanned Never put an early access warning up and was subsequently removed from steam Lied about the size of their map Censored the hell out of their forums, including links to their past statements etc etc etc I'm hard pressed to name a worse developer -- hell, even EA is better, bf4 scandal and all.
