we need a seperate forum for KOS complaining threads... seriously op, what was the point

agreed on more civ weapons...but you should know the sks and mosin are civ weapons "these days" mil surp rifles are extremely affordable and very durable. they are very popular for civilians. hey, i own a mosin and an sks in real life... the sks is known to be "the poor mans deer rifle" here in Canada haha. also if i had a .22, id be right up the m4 dudes arse with it. .22 rimfile is plenty to kill a man

yes it will. also because we dont have bloody loot spawn timers...which go hand in hand with server hop timer...damn you rock-i-t

I will defer to the experts, but there are plenty of threads about this argument. The conencus seems to be that 225sq km map with all the resources that TOH, Arma use they are the big boys. no other game has the map size and resources. keep in mind too the difference between MMO birds eye view/texture quality, etc (WoW, diablo 3, etc) to the fps/3rd person

bingo!

not true we use mosins and sks's with PU or LRS... no gear damage with a head shot!

it wont run it very well. 4+ ghz for great fps 3+ ghz for OK fps your graphics card is not a gaming card, thus will have issues getting max fps. at this time a $60 used gtx 460 and a $100 intel i5 processor should server you well. my work computer is 2.8 ghz 9550 with gtx 460 and it does OK... but then my home pc with 4.2 ghz blazes the fps past 60 so for a small investment you should be good to go. also research overclocking your CPU, may help immensly as SA and Arma are CPU reliant. you could possibly get a $50 all in one water cooler for your cpu and over clock to 3.5 ghz and be happy

Not true... there are no games that take as much resources

im now fapping thank you

understood, but my main concern is my download speed....if it changes by enough its not worth it for me.

what he said ^ you can hold sprint all you want, after a while they go slower than the jog speed. some sort of fatigue mechanic

proof please !

going to test this asap, also test the ping/download speed before and after with speedtest.net will post results as soon as my prego wife waddles downtstairs and turns on teamviewer...

Good stuff, cant wait for this one. however a big issue: I am the first person to advocate for a server hop timer, as proven in some of the mods of the mod and breaking point arma 3. It is necessary and it works wonders. (however unfair some may think it is) In the case of SA, where you have yet to implement loot spawn timers, this will not work properly. The reason server hopping is so prevalent is of course its an easy way to loot up, but also because you havent implemented the standard loot spawn timers! (forcing honest players to HOP just to get a can of beans...or a mosin) Start with adding a loot spawn timer, then do the log out timer and server hop timer. I personally dont care at this point, as im a lone wolf and tend to keep my gear for weeks. Any time you want player interaction, which is a big part of DayZ, you will be forced to enter high pop server fully knowing there wont be any loot...

No, the devs are only focusing on shiny new weapons lol no bug fixes until q4 2014 its beta first, then alpha haha

use google, learn about ammo types answer is no

Im both a graphical programmer and a graphic artist. I can program optimizations till the cows come home and I can also do art... I am not a minority... you know what else I can do? I can help the secretary with just about any computer problem she has too... its called multitasking and applying work force where needed stop this ridiculous notion that people only do 1 job and 1 job only

?? giving endgame ideas... its alpha, little to no content or features or endgame. douche or not, doesnt matter. just dont go killing fresh spawns on the coast OP...or do...who cares. its a vijeo game

in a game where you can be KO'd by one punch to the head..trying to be a hero is a fools errand. Im not sure about trying to be like ANY youtuber...just say you want to be hero, non KOS. as for playstyle, its just too early at this point. Unless you really dont mind loosing your gear a lot then go ahead and be good. at the moment its just infuriating. Id say once they put a Log out timer (/ fake player so alt-f4 doesnt work) and a server hop timer (so players cant ghost kill or loot hop) you can enjoy a proper play style. for now, KOS

this is duping, not a ban-able offense...try again more like taking advantage of the bugs the devs missed... OP im in the same boat, minus the duping... Im resorting to setting up a nice blind and hunting server hoppers in the airfield.

wholey fanboys, you tolerate KOS threads from 12 yr old newbs, but the minute someone has a logical thought process you jump all over him. jesus fuck good post OP. I always wondered why they are worrying more about mosin paint/features, instead of 100% focus on optimization and actually fixing what the community wants (log out timer & server loot spawn timer, /server hop timer)

try google, or the forum search function would be easier and more fruitful for the obvious questions/answers. there is at least 10 threads right now about gear wipes. also common sense approach helps... "when i play on vilayer.com servers I never wipe, but when i play on RandomCrazyPersonServer DayZ Server, my character gets wiped...conclusion...its maybe not an official server or not config'd correctly"

also try googling...it often yields the answers quicker than posting redundant questions on the forums. also the search function up top. specifically this question has been answered minimum 1000 times

2 points go on low population servers...loot is abundant. - this is because loot only spawns on server restarts...to be fixed once stable for loot timers. get off the coast, head inland. enjoy the game proper. - contrary to youtube, the game is most certainly not a boxing fightclub/stickup simulator. great things to do? - goto airfields / military bases (low pop (night) servers make traveling safer and the loot is available) - find mosin / scope - snipe people/be stealthy - actually hold some bandits up and not just fresh spawns - see the north of the map, some amazing stuff north west corner/north east corner

Sir, may I introduce you to google...its this new thing that can tell you anything about anything. pretty cool stuff. C mags and P mags are aftermarket and typically advantageous to the AR platform because they are plastic (lighter) and offer more capacity due to their length/design. The Stanag mag is just their terminology in SA for a standard 30 round AR mag.
