Hi. Are you sure about this? I've read elsewhere that the MP hand guard increases accuracy as well, and don't forget the bipod when prone. Regards.

What are your biggest concerns and fears regarding the near/far future of the game?
fitzee replied to joe_mcentire's topic in General Discussion
Hi. Sorry to waste space in your thread OP, but, I had to quote this for the lulz. In my thirty something years of playing video games(dating back to pong) this is the 1st time I've ever seen someone complain about the fonts in a game. rotflmao Thanks Big_T you made my day. :) -
Hi. I admittedly don't know much about Rust, but I'm under the impression its an open empty world, with no ai, houses, towns or cities. Maybe just me, but that sounds like it would be a shitload easier to polish. O and by the way, "ITS ONLY ALFA DUDE, STFU" :P Regards.

Great another game developer. Here we go again...

Hi. How the heck are you supposed to be stealthy with a big neon name tag over your head. Hell no. Regards.
-
That sounds brutal :| Are you on dial up internet or something? :huh: Maybe I'm just lucky. Regards.

Hi. I didn't realize the servers were 70+ a month, lol, that's pretty close to a grand a year. I guess I shall take this moment to send out a big thank you to the guys paying for my playing space :blush: , even if almost every eastern US hardcore server is 24/7 daytime :( :| :) :D Regards.

Fixed :P Default view is actually zoomed out too far, I guess trying to make up for lack of FOV on the average pc monitor. Though I would use + on the numpad instead so you don't make your character hold his breath. Regards.

Character Died from 5ft drop (estimate)
fitzee replied to TiptonSamurai's topic in General Discussion
Hi. No offence OP, but your being rather silly. Do you always buy games without knowing anything about them? Even if it wasn't alpha, you still would lose all your gear when you die, that's what DayZ is all about. Regards. -
Hi. Generally speaking everything you turn off makes players easier to spot. Picture your adversary lying in a shaded treeline, he's somewhat difficult to spot. Now turn the shadows off and he is lit up, and considerably easier to see. Regards.

Zombie attack=everything ruined in backpack?
fitzee replied to firstrock1503's topic in General Discussion
Hi. I've found if your backpack or clothing is pristine it protects the gear inside, but once it gets damaged the stuff inside takes damage. Of course this is alpher and experiences are sure to vary. Regards. -
Hi. Did the devs actually announce they were going to wipe the characters with this patch? The last patch didn't wipe mine, the people that were wiped was the result of a servers connecting to the hive bug. I just lost a can of pop because it didn't exist in the newer version. Regards.
-
These duped characters don't actually stay after the server restarts do they?
-
Hello OP. I would suggest tossing it. At this point of time pristine PU scopes, are very easy to find, you don't even have to go anywhere near military zones or cities for that matter. Regards.

The current implementation of the logout timer is trollish.
fitzee replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Hi. While you have a mostly valid point, since you play with everything disabled or on the lowest setting you should know better than most, that it's easy to see other players, even if they are decked out in camo clothes. Add in that if they have the eye candy on and playing in 1PP they aren't going to see you. I've followed people around a lot longer than 5 minutes, it's one of my favorite things to do in DayZ lol. Needless to say, as you pointed out, when this patch goes live the tears are going to flow :lol: Regards. -
The current implementation of the logout timer is trollish.
fitzee replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
lol :facepalm: The only tears I've actually seen regarding this subject were before the timer was added. You know, when everyone was here crying about how people logged out before they could kill them :D I guess it might bother me if people combat logged on me too, but so far nobody I shot at actually had the chance to log out, cause well you know, they were dead :D Regards. -
The current implementation of the logout timer is trollish.
fitzee replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Hi. This is somewhat similar to what I suggested. When a player uses his weapon, him and his target get a 15 minute combat flag, which would refresh each time they use weapon again. Log out isn't possible during timer and if they lose connection or crash game the character is stuck there until the timer runs out. There's no logical reason for a player who isn't actually in combat to have a combat log out timer. Regards. -
The current implementation of the logout timer is trollish.
fitzee replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Hi. The thing I find funny about the majority of people thinking the log out method is perfect, is that they seem to assume everyone who needs to get out of the game is combat logging. Really? Trolling or just brain dead? Or maybe just 15 year old kids with 0 responsibilities in life? There's no way of winning an argument against that type of mentality. Like mah grandpappy told me when I was young "Never argue with an idiot son, first they will take you down to their level, then they will beat you with experience". :D Regards. -
Hi. Not trying to be a douche(probably am anyway), but you talk about skill and using a cross hair at the same time. I really think the RV engine isn't for you. Although Rocket for some absurd reason leaves that silly dot on screen, the skilled or veteran ArmA players/servers disable that crap. Skilled players don't even need it for accurate hip firing, at least not in ranges that real-world hip firing would be a viable option. Regards.

The current implementation of the logout timer is trollish.
fitzee replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Hi. I fully agree with you. I guess the only people that think this method is perfect are the elektro death match crowd, because they wouldn't really care if they die. They generally just want spawns but back at baloota so they can gear up in 10 minutes and get back to the death match. Which is fine, I have no problem with people who play that way, they make surviving a bit harder. But if you die because you didn't have enough time to really get into the boonies before logging out, its taking away from other peoples playing styles. Regards. -
In-game sound needs to be re-worked
fitzee replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Hi. In ArmA these indicators were used to show you which direction off-screen squadmates and/or targets were. I didn't even know they were in the mod(maybe it depended on your ArmA difficulty settings), but I would guess it showed other players or zeds that you had already spotted. Regards. -

fitzee replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
^This is the truth. I've seen plenty of zeds in the woods. Usually pretty easy to avoid, but one time after not being in a town or airfield for at least 20 minutes I was attacked by 4 zeds in the woods. I saw them first and thought I made it through the line but 2 spotted me and the other two joined the action while I fought lol. Also to the people that say you won't get spotted sitting in a bush, try playing the game with all eye candy disabled and lowest possible settings, no bushes, trees, or camo clothing will hide you from people who play that way. We need this combat log system, but as a player more interested in survival than personal kill streaks, I have to think there is a better way. Regards. -
Done :P
-
Hi. So how do you tell which berries are good? Is it color coded? Hopefully there is some brain food blueberries to help the COD kids :lol: Regards.

Hi. At this point of time there is no such thing as a PVE server. Kicking people from the server for killing people is a fast way to have your server removed without refund. There are actually people that put PVE only in the server name to attract you so they can kill you lol. I'm sure there will be some pve oriented servers once private hives are allowed. Regards.
