Ya, this is a win win thread DeanRocket, can you please make less enterable buildings for this OP? I am a lazy dayz and cant handle all the loot spots woe is me

easiest fix, play on LOW PING servers. the majority of rubber banding happens because of latency and server lag.

bye bye may I suggest Call Of Duty?

you probably just logged in to a non HIVE server... If you are on a hive server, then switch to a non hive server and then back to hive or any sequence you may get a whipe. pay attention to the server names: DayZ CA-24 - Vilayer.com - GOOD DayZ UK-9 - MPGS.com - GOOD Knuzklebuster Day-Z 24/7 3pp - (possibly BAD) Random name DayZ server - (possibly BAD) I had these issues before when trying to play on various servers....I only play on vilayer.com, mpgs, frag, gameservers.com and have never had a whipe in weeks.

need to post way more details. game is heavily reliant on CPU not gpu...i run a gtx 570 and it runs amazing. if your running a 760 with a i7 of only 2.8 ghz then there is your problem...(if you have over 4 ghz you should be flying) also try the sticky pinned thread about possible fps fixes.

Is it me or is the old running up hills issue more pronounced in SA? I find it more frustrating to run up hills...constantly having to switch from turbo to jog, to diagonal, etc... How does this engine have the same wonderful issue as Arma 2? What causes this? Is it something we will have to live with in SA?

Fix? Spawn, run away from the town (ideally north to the treeline), keep running north to enjoy the fucking game, loot up, stay up north and snipe people legit. the end, thread closed

wowo i didnt mean that as a jab...Many truly think this is just part of the shitty arma 2 engine. Not a designed feature. It is also a problem in arma 3... Just figured that since it wasnt fixed by now, it was an engine issue.

Really though??? proof or? I truly thought it was a bug from arma 2 engine that manifested somehow in SA. its insane is what it is... also it happens when going down hill! I still think its a bug, because if you hold turbo, you walk...if you hold W, you jog (when it goes in to crackhead mode)

agreed on all posts, but i dont think it is a feature....i think it is some problem with both engines. curious as to the technical reason why i certainly dont go running up a hill and then instantly start walking, then turbo running, then jogging, then walking, then zig zagging, etc hahaha

this should be the splash screen in game...lol nice post. I would honestly cry and leave dayz forever if they ever tried making the game easier or holding our hands...dayz is dayz because of the freedom to do what you want. There shouldnt be honour systems or karma points or anything like that... if you want to KOS have at er, if your 12 and want to cry every time you get KOS, have at er, or you could just try to get better and enjoy the game more.

Not at all, but the inconsistency of it is what kills it. if you turbo on the right angle, you can run up the hill, then when the issue comes up, you are forced to walk...but then if you release turbo it will jog up the hill... like wholey fuck the problem is something with the terrain and pathway of the character, just make it a non issue or up hill = jog, flat = turbo. no inbetween or crazy shit.

that is an interesting concept for sure, so beans. but realistically it would work...if you couldnt transfer weapons from server hopping it would curb the hopping instantly...but so would a 2 minute timer... and at least with the simple timer you could stand to goto others servers if say one was broken. id be mightly pissed if a server crapped out and i was forced to join another without any weapons or canned food hah

hrmmm..i never rubberbanded much in the last few patches. You guys are playing on some really laggyservers, but when I did this update I now rubber band more...same old low ping servers. Like once in my whole play session, maybe 10m, so not a big deal. odd.

i think he is raging because this is him: psisyndicate knocked you out and stole your shit hahah! id be pissed as well!

Not necc in this setting...sure its easy enough to find another PU scope etc in SA, but realistically wouldnt it be easier to modify or repair certain items then hoping that luck will grace you with a new PU? sounds like a fun option though. Just adds more to crafting. Which is welcome.. maybe even just the ability to take certain items, just broken stocks or damaged optics and fix them with other parts/tools in SA would be well worth it and add things to do for us..

agreed, im sure this will come in to play in the future...just not a priority. Super cool to be able to say fix the glass on the Acog or LR scope or fix the wood on the mosin and this would improve accuracy (like bedding a rifle or something) all with a crafting system of sorts and a bit of time, like house building in epoch sort of

fist you use your brain, if that fails (which it sounds like it will), then you use the search function, then you use the WIKI, then you use google mosin nagant with a PU scope is a sniper rifle...with the long range scope it is a beast. can be found everywhere, think about...oh never mind - found in long barns, high level houses, military buildings - other players

i can live with the glitches and bugs, realistically I dont understand why so main complaints about banding and wall kills... I have banded a few meters once or twice, however I only play on local servers or at least something with an A+ ping... not sure if that is related or what. I have never been killed by a ladder, wall or anything odd like that. I frequently jump down ladders when closer to the bottom. havent had a character wipe since I started ONLY playing on servers with this Dayz CA (or whatever suffix)24 bla bla bla the typical gameservers, frag, mpg, vilayer I can not live with me enjoying my low lag, low pop, lone wolf runs around the edges of the map. I dip in for a quick look at an airfield or base and to my luck its full of loot, get all i need about to leave and as if by teleport someone shows up behind me or around the corner when 2 seconds earlier they were not, and boom I take a hidden axe to the back of the head (server hoppers) Server hopping has to be the easiest thing to fix, and yet it still runs rampant. Also it must help the servers from not having so many players jumping around the hive, thus giving better server performance maybe?

I dont think there should be any system in place that rewards one way or another or punishes one way or another. I would like to see some proof as well, im pretty sure the honour system was low on the totem pole compared to other systems! how many times must we quote dean and the website "this is your story" it aint my fucking story if your telling me who I "should" kill and shouldnt.

I would imagine if that snow mechanic was in SA the servers would implode.

I should have said GHZ GHZ GHZ... i7 vs i5 is irrelivant im on a old 930, and kick most peoples FPS...but thats due to high clock speed and understanding the optimization. I spent a solid month with arma 2 and the mod just trying to max my fps, after every tweak and suggestion I simply bought a cheap watercooler and broug her over 4 ghz and never looked back..if you want fps, make sure your clock speed is over 4ghz and you time your memory and such. It is actually quite simple to do with google and forums.

I have yet to try this, but I remember in arma 3 having to download 0.5gb-1gb files when switching builds. extremely annoying... Is this the case with steam/SA?

CPU CPU CPU, all you need is more cpu and everything is gravy. (4.25 ghz +) im still running a gtx 570 and am more than happy with my FPS. Typically 40-60.

OK op i understand your point now. Ya i think that would be pretty harsh and the forum would explode lol!
