    It does work, but only with the "Wood Rifle", Mooshin or something.

    Can I Run DayZ Retail (POST HERE)

    So many trolls in here saying they got nice fps (nice = over 50fps) with shitty setups... I get 40-70fps in the wilderness. (1920x1200 resolution) 19-35fps in citys depending on the size. (1920x1200 resolution) Worth noticing is that I get the exact same values even if I change to a Nvidia MSI GTX660 card with 2GB VRAM. In other words, the game is extremely un-optimized. Apparantly the GTX570 and GTX660 is pretty much equal in peformarance in this game. The only thing that is better with the 660 is that im able to use the extra 1GB of VRAM for a little bit highres textures. My config: CPU: AMD Phenom II X6, 1090T @ 3.20Ghz, 6 Cores, 6 Threads. GPU: Nvidia Gainward GTX570, 1280MB VRAM, clocked to: 2000Mhz @ Memory, 920Mhz @ Core. RAM: 8GB I also run the game with these parameters: -maxMem=8192 -maxVRAM=2048 -cpuCount=6 -exThreads=6 + GPU_MaxFramesAhead=1; AND GPU_DetectedFramesAhead=1; in my config. I have also lowered the viewdistance a bit. What you should add? You should throw that computer in the trash and buy a new one. That one was outdated YEARS ago.. :D

    How the alpha could be MUCH BETTER

    Word, the combatlogging HAS to be stopped. Implement a timer on logout now and disable alt+f4. On top of that, make it so the server keeps the character online for the same amount of seconds as the logout timer is on before your actually getting dc, this prevents people from ninjadc by pulling their internetcable...

    Remove gamma and brightness settings

    - I'd say, keep the night as it is, just a tiny bit lighter. - Fix the lightning from lamps, and lamps in some buildings to light up cities during nighttime. - BUFF the flashlights and/or add different types of flashlights with a better and brighter spread of the light. - Make it so the gamma/brightness slider works like in Arma 3, in other words, the dark places stay dark. OR - FORCE CLOUDS, having at least the lowest setting on, makes it so you can't cheat with the gamma/brightness sliders. - Also, FORCE SHADOWS, at least to the very lowest settings. In games like these it's VERY VERY important that all players view the world in the same way.
  5. Well, this is my new character, finally got some gear! But, my colors are black and white, sort of. Why? I read that your screen turns black and white if you have lost a lot of blood, but I've not taken any damage. Is this a common bug? As you can see, the first one is from the menu, and the second one is from ingame. However, for a split second when I enter a new server there are colors, but they immediately disappear... :(

    Drinking from wells

    Works for me, don't know which town I where in tho since I'm pretty new to the game.

    Loss of colors, new character.

    Hm okey, Well if there are no known bug, I guess I'll eat and drink all my food and water, thanks. Thought it was very weird to start out this way tho.

    every server is dark

    Why would it be cheating, we can't play without it. The flashlight is extremely tiring for your eyes and really frustrating, sure they want it to be realistic, but that's NOTHING like real life.

    every server is dark

    Here is a fix that solves the complete darkness on every server, it's for us workers who can't play during the day. The night cycle is fucking idiotic right now, it should be day for 2½ hours and then night for 2 hours. It's impossible to find anything in the dark when you start a new character. Either fix the night-cycle or make the flashlight ALOT better. The fix: 1. Crank gamma and brightness to the max! 2. Turn on Cluds, best quality. 3. Problem solved, but the game looks like shit.

    Me want the stand alooooone! Just release it and make patches for it, Minecraft Style. It can't be more buggier than the mod right? Personally I think people will get tired of waiting, and just ignore the game when you guys finally releases it. The saying, "We will release it when it's done." it old and not funny anymore.

    I'd say, scratch the third-person view. Third person, does not make any sense at all in these type of games. It's silly. Since it's somewhat a simulation of a real zombie-apocalypse. Without It, the game would be even more realistic and harder, which is a good thing, because you would have to be on your guard all the time. :) And yes, I think third-person view in these kind of games are cheating. Because you have a huge advantage compared to those who plays in first-person. Being able to choose between the two, forces you to use third-person, simply because you have a better overview with it.

    DayZ Mod 1.7.5.1 Update

    I'm sorry but you are wrong, I've been playing too much Counter-Strike through out my life (about 13 years) to know that VAC is FAR from flawless. But it certainly helps.

    Euhm, there is no difference in shooting kids vs grown-ups. Well if they were alive, that's one thing, but now they are zombies and the kids would probably be even more dangerous than large zombies since they are harder to spot, etc. I'd say bring in the kids! It would make the game even scarier, and way more realistic.
