Here is all you to know to install it. http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/How_to_install_DayZ Or just install ARMA 2: Combined Operations, run both ounce, patch, and use this to install Dayz http://play.withsix.com/

How did you come to that conclusion?

Well you really can't enjoy everything the game has to offer without stepping out of your comfort zone every once in a while. Play it was a hero and commit the occasional murder or play it as a bad ass bandit and heals newbies and loads them up with the best gear just to freak them out!

Not top of the line, but it should still run fine.

You may need to updated or reinstall your Battleye. Here the link: http://www.battleye.com/download.html

Wouldn't more player placed objects simply add to the load time and slow the database down even more? I could be wrong I've never really looked into how the server databases utilize player affected data. To individual players it's just one or two cameras, a tent, barbed wire or stashed vehicle. But collectively it's thousands of pieces of crap being added by hundreds of players that the server needs to keep track of. Plus some added objects (vehicles, tents, dead bodies etc.) all have inventory that needs kept track of by the database. So I would assume that each individual camera would have its inventory content (pictures) that the database would be to keep track of. Would be cool but I don't know if it's worth the added lag.

How do the high quality texture of the BAF ghillie suit put you at a disadvantage? Dose it actually looked better than the surrounding grassy textures? +Do all user see the enhanced clothing/skins or just others users with the expansion packs installed?

Oh now this is a zombie survival game!
BigEdMan replied to ShallowTech's topic in New Player Discussion
Greetings. WarZ is still rough around the edges and lacking even the most basic features like a friends list or VOIP. But it sure looks like it will be an awesome little mindless time killing game. DayZ on the other hand seems to be more of a Thinking Man's(persons) survival game. Can't wait for the standalone edition! -
Is DayZ standalone coming to Steam Store?
BigEdMan replied to xZombine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Nice looks like I may have just got sold on WarZ. Sure it could benefit from the Dayz atmosphere of constant old school peril. But the fact that it's built upon a modern functional game engine probably wins out in my book. Just have to see how free to play with freemium content plays out. I would rather just buy the game and contribute to a community run servers then deal with the freemium content model. But still it's kind of cool that you can rent a keypad protected safe house for you can your friends to stash loot in. Also cool to think of robbing other safehouses instead of mucking around with deserted buildings. Guess I'll have to play both to decide which one wins my free time. Cool Video -
Satellite Phones + Future DLC with NPC missions arranged via phone.
BigEdMan posted a topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Two words: Satellite Phones Benefits: Friends could be automatically added to your address book. Acquaintances like heroic helicopter pilots, daring combat medics or getaway drivers could go in the secondary address book. You could then call people up and make plans. But your voice will carry just like in the real world, so others hiding nearby may overhear your conversations. This could further enrich the proper use of stealth & patients and benefit the sneaky players. After all why kill somebody when you can follow them to a rendezvous point and take out a whole group. Upgrades: Your phone won't function without fresh batteries. And perhaps you'll live long enough to add upgrades like a card that adds GPS with topographical maps. Then you can send your favorite bandit or do-gooder a maked map location they may find interesting. Or you perhaps find a Replacement Camera Lens that would allow you to take screenshots without breaking the immersion factor. FYI: For the love of God keep your cell phone on vibrate because the sound may attract zombies or worse. (Small phone icon vibrating on your screen) + You could add in future DLC with NPC missions arranged via phone. Just more to keep the avid adventurer going. For example find a car and pick up a pregnant lady who needs to get to the doctor. Car breaks down, send/call friends for parts, defend car/lady or risk losing humanity. Or find a lost dog or blue ribbon cow in a dangerous area for more ammo than you can shake a wet tail at. Just picture driving somewhere with a cow in the backseat, better hope you don't have a leather interior body! (Remember: he may just a self-made cow so go make something of yourself - sorry had to) -
(No pardon intended) But oh crap, don't the zombies have a rather keen sense of smell! On the other hand it could bring new meaning to the term satchel charge!

BigEdMan replied to BigEdMan's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
self-explanatory -
Incredibly awesome idea in theory. But to facilitate the number of players on any given server you would need massive apartment buildings. These areas would become killing zones being farmed by bandits. Even the do-gooders being attracted to fight the bandits would cause enough of a problem for me to move. What about finding rare lockable footlockers. You could not use the footlocker until it's deployed and it can only be deployed once. (would use 4 inventory spaces prior to deployment) The lockable footlocker could be broken into with enough shots fired at it. But it would still be relatively easy to hide when compared to a tent. But remember the more crap you add the world the slower you make the database keeping track of it all. I could be wrong but I would assume the world would load faster without all the barbed wire, tents, parked vehicles and other player modified objects the database is keeping track of.

55 Day Run Finally Came To An End... Sorrow & Relief!!!
BigEdMan replied to -Cdn-Chard's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Congratulations sounds like one hell of a run! Did you find any water chips? LOL... I'm still waiting for the standalone version to come out. But the first thing I plan on doing is spending days running jumping bang into things to see how much abuse my character can take before he dies. That way I'll have a good idea (all glitches aside) of what to do or not do. With luck I may survive a a day or 2... -
Wasteland Golbal - tittes and beer
BigEdMan replied to mrmadness's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
< ---- Likes titties and beer! Dislikes abuseive teleport hacking admins... -
Iron Man / Hunger Games competition. Purpose: To pit 10 server sanctioned hunters against 40 brave contestants. The competition: The hunters will start with high-power low accuracy weapons, 20 rounds of ammo and 2 helicopters to move them around. The contestants will then swim X number of miles while being shot at. They will then jump on bicycles* and ride X number of miles through wooded terrain while being shot at. Finally the remaining contestants will run across a large field of wildflowers to see who wins. Oh wiat, that's too easy. Did I forget to mention you need to cover this field with bear traps* and zombies. The contestants will have only a handgun with 6 to 18 rounds, 4 bandages, 4 morphine and some freshly cooked meat. + 1 Hand Grenade for fun! The contestants are free to shoot each other as well as the zombies during the field portion of the competition. But remember the hunters are still after you and they may still have some ammo left. Winner: The winner will be whoever successfully survives long enough to reach the finish line first. Note: * You will need to hack in the necessary number of bicycles and bear traps to accomplish this. But as long as no one steals the bicycles or bear traps and you delete them after it should be fine. You should charge the contestants a can of beans to enter the competition. The winner would then receive all the beans they can carry. :beans: Just picture the crazy videos if you combine footage from all the contestants and the hunters. :rolleyes:
