In my opinion, the current compass is an example of over-design.

Yea this pretty much nails it -

MattGL replied to ZedsDeadBaby's topic in General Discussion
Lol I'm bout to blow all of your worlds apparently. All you have to do is keep the compass high in your inventory, like in your shirt. Always keep it open by right clicking it and pressing open.. OMG what's that other option?! That's right, inspect. Try it out and check out your new high def compass. The best part is you can keep sprinting while doing this. Try it, you won't be disappointed. When I came into this thread I was like wtf is the problem? Honestly I didn't even know you could look at it in your hands. -
For me its pistol and m4 sights. I've only ever found an m4 red dot sight once, and it was too damaged to use. Never even seen a pistol one. Then I watch sacriels stream and he finds three, yes THREE PRISTINE m4 sights in a single military compound. Urgh the rage

F3 doesn't actually do anything, its just an animation. Rocket confirmed it himself in sacriels stream. Also I'm not sure running hastens how fast you lose healing/healthy status, and unless you have concrete proof that it does I don't think people should spread that info. I've been healthy now for over an hour without eating and I'm on the move constantly moving and looting.

Random freezes for 1-3 secs every 1-3minutes.
MattGL replied to BratExecutioner's topic in General Discussion
Yes especially if you are playing on 24/7 daylight, you have to disable clouds. The way it stays day all the time is by resetting the cycle every couple minutes, and the clouds resetting will lag you. -
It works it just takes a ton of food and drink to get it above the healing level. You'll have to stuff yourself from an empty stomach half a dozen times or more. When you are stuffed it isn't saying anything about your food/water levels, just how full your stomach is. So, eat 2-3 tins of food, then drink from a well until completely full. Go about your business for 10-15 min and repeat. The nice thing is that once you reach the healing/healthy level its easy to maintain it. I also take vitamins like once a day, not sure if it helps though.

How to improve Night gameplay - Rocket please read
MattGL replied to gamer222's topic in General Discussion
You probably have clouds disabled. Set clouds to low and see the world in a whole new light. -
What are your specs? When I used to play on my old outdated vid card everything was delayed. Once I got my new one it went away.

Why to open preserves requires opener?
MattGL replied to PacoOfficial (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I enjoy his road side safety vest. Wouldn't want to get ran over out there. -
i have an i5 2520k at 3ghz and a 7700 8gb ram and by following the online guides for fps I have 50ish in woods and mid 30s in big towns. I suggest everyone googles optimizing dayz sa and follows through with it

Super sadface

I really hope not. I finally got geared up good last night for the first time, but it was getting late so I had to log. Was really looking forward to playing today.

Do you just need to be full on food to regen blood? I've been full on food but I've never been able to get unthirsty. Even chilling around a pump for an hour drinking periodically. Also I've never been able to regen blood at full food, unless it is so slow its practically unnoticeable.

What if you see one

FYI, there are trap servers that wipe your character.
MattGL replied to mark3236 (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Happened to me also. Was no patch. Edit: to clarify, I was on a server and suddenly I could here peoples voice coms, so I logged out to try a different server and upon logging in I was fresh on the beach. Since then I found one decent server that I haven't deviated from and I've had no issues. -
Wait wait, he has a white... ARMA?!?! Loool Cough

But it would be due to the large military presence that got overrun and slaughtered

I personally feel the default controls are terrible, and remapped almost every key. Especially when they have keys that do actions you need on the fly, but they are on the right side of the keyboard? what the heck

Doesn't the dmr mag turn into four, five round m24 mags? Why is this praised as a plus? To have the same amount of m24 ammo in your inventory as dmr ammo, you're taking up 4x as much space.. Also, mildots are simple. Center is 400, each dot below that is +100. If the m24 AUTO zero'd or had a built in range finder I could see the advantage. If you can't count from 4-8 then I could also see the advantage. DMR is semi auto with a much larger clip, and does the same damage . Everyone is entitled to their personal preference, but the DMR outclasses the m24, and is simply better, in almost every way. The only minor downside is counting a dot or two, which isn't much different than having to punch the page key a couple times.

Where will you take a dump in the Standalone?
MattGL replied to pr3llox's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm just curious where this whole dump thing comes from. Someone referred me to that euro con video, but he never mentions ANYTHING about pooping in game. He mentions areas with high traffic being disease ridden, and mentions someone doing motion capture for vomiting, but besides mentioning the word poop he never hints towards the idea that you are going to be able to hunch over and pinch a loaf. Can anyone link me to where this idea comes from? It kind of didturbs me, and I've read several threads about it, but I can't find any real backing from where this idea comes from.
