    Dayz mod fps problem

    if you get good FPS on SA then you should be able to get awesome FPS in the mod look at the guid the above poster linked or just mess with your options. i get sort of crap FPS in SA but the mod for me runs smooth as hell but i spent awhile just messing with the video options. its the vanilla mod i hope you speak of compared to overwatch and epoch it has the best FPS IMO for me atleast.

    Dayz Realisim

    i'm pumped for that car it looks like it should do decent off-road with those kinds of tires seems like a gremlin with more balls. i hope we get a cherry picker when bases or camps become a thing it would be cool to modify the engine with different parts that make sense like a turbo or a extra fuel cell or things like re enforced doors and windows with run flat tires. of course if things aren't viable on these models of cars oh well i'm glad we have 3 vehicles with modifications that they are adding beggars can't be choosers i say.

    Resting - The fourth survival need.

    I think a sleeping bag would be cool to slow your metabolism maybe you could kinda rest as OP said. say you just spawned and your starving your friend has food you have none you could sleep which also gives a black screen or shows you sleeping either or and it slows your use of food and drink. maybe its a crap idea oh well. as survivors we probably wouldn't really sleep much but a few hours if we were lucky and i'm sure it would be nightmarish indeed. this resting could be tied into stamina somehow no buffs or anything but maybe it could be tied to the healthy buff which then they could add amphetamines and with those you could eliminate the need for rest for a few days then madness and disease would occur same with alcohol maybe it can give you a the ability to not be knocked out or feel shock from minor gunshots and melee.
  4. wor do n the street is we are getting a taser soon so there's that. as of now the folks above have the answer.
  5. it does make more sense they way whyherro put it. I wish they would put up signs that warn of infected areas and maybe even quarantine zones with lab equipment and that kind of atmosphere. mobile command outposts and maybe use exiting buildings for some of these as it was stated the government probably wouldn't have time to build from scratch they would use what structures and areas that would be most effective and easiest to maintain and these areas of course should have the most infected as well as good gear not meaning just guns but other tools and supplies.

    So is DayZ 58% done?

    i feel this conversation happened before woooooo scary
  7. we are getting a bull horn and those well the one i had you could turn an alarm on and it could be heard for blocks since they already have the bullhorn or are working on it just add the alarm function turn on and drop on the ground and it can irritate everyone in cluding zeds with in a few 100m till the batteries run out lol.
  8. though that idea sounds good it won't turn out as planned instead of using said barrels and ladders for the intended use they will be used for griefing blocking doors into barracks and any other place or area that is of interest. then there will be folks that come on and say its a sandbox i can do what i want then we all start bitching how there's to many griefers and it becomes shit. i like the idea though but like i said there would need to be building rules no blocking of doors or if you can they need to be able to be destroyed with fists yes fists. oh and zombies need to first be able to climb said ladders or satchel charges drop buildings cause i know you want to camp the spot with your rifle and not worry bout zeds and other players gettin ya i know thats the intended use so there also needs to be a negative side effect to this and that zeds or destruction or good grenade throwing mechanics.
  9. you just gotta think outside the box i used to use a little paper weight device that fits right on my run key i know others use it to it usually get me in trouble for the simple fact i'm drinkin coffee smokin a cig BS'n on TS then bam gunfight ensues and i'm bumbling around trying to get right and i'm dead all because i'm lazy. such is the woes of the autorun and the reason i don't use it anymore.

    My first kill

    you were in NWAF like another said thats a dead zone all there are the real living dead hehe. and did you get the shakes i did my first real oh shit moment only game that gives the ol adrenaline boost.

    Unconscious

    indeed i've been known to step over a enemy and put a few magnum rounds in them to make sure.

    Rarely survive headshots

    and most folks aren't going to play with serious debilitating issues i would though i'm sick but folks play the game to get different things and most would simply crush the pill so to speak.
  13. gannon46

    Rarely survive headshots

    though i agree some headshots are survivable we have no functioning hospitals or highly trained doctors they are all busy killing each other lol. to survive something like that would require the aid of friends family and as i said doctors and at a time like this in chenarus it would better to put one down anyway because of the amount of rations,medical supplies and just time that would required to save ones life would just be to great for both sides. so if they want to add in this ability to survive a head wound from a .308 or 7.62 there should be a serious wound that occurs and requires healing from a group if they decide your worth it then so be it if not you gotta do the long run.

    Do not make DayZ SA Moddable.

    modding is how we will be able to play on different maps like namalsk and possibly NAPF or some other map someone thinks up. I understand the concern a little about the modding but we don't even know the extent they are even going to allow yet. I for one hope they don't allow modding of the loot like 10X loot or adjusting the spawns like 10x M4 spawns in barns or 100X vehicles with super speed i'm sure it will happen folks like easy mode but if thats what folks want i guess thats what will exist we'll just have to wait and see what the limitations are but i for one can't wait to play on namalsk updated with the new tech.

    Savegame Character

    i htought the fear of loss was a big part of the game having multiple toons would just destroy that entirely folks would YOLO like crazy till they had one toon left that they would then just use to server hop and get shit for the other fresh toons seems exploitive and wrong IMO. like an above person stated theres 2 hives make one to use with friends and the other as your solo who cares kinda toon thats enough. everytime you take your toon on an adventure you should have in the back of your mind he/she might not make it back alive.

    "The Towns of Chernarus" Series

    they should use your work on there game store page give folks a taste of what the map looks like and the atmosphere it provides you do good work. you do photography in RL if not you should give it a try you have the eye for it already.
  17. guard shacks for the AK-crap, SVD at heli crash the russian one, deer stands for hunting scope thats where i found all the stuff you listed. the heli crash by vybor if you can make it there for restart is where i found my SVD have some other goons with ya because that place is a meat grinder sometimes.

    Civilian semi-auto rifles

    what about the AR-15 i would love to see that introduced hell the mods for the M4 would work as well. maybe other things they could do with that rifle like finding drop in sears to make it full auto or the selector switch combined with the drop in sear could mean you would have full auto 3 rnd burst and semi auto. so many things they could do with that rifle as well as the mini-14 you suggested. and it being civilan you should find it not a heli crashes but make it uncommon in houses. and about mags i don't see an issue witht hem sapwning they just need to make the civilian mags be 10 rnds or 15 rnd i mean why is it OK to find a 74 rnd drum for an AK at a barrack yet wouldn't be ok to find a 10-15 rnd AR-mag in a house. hell you can find 10rnd sks stripper clips in houses yet no one complains bout those so again i don't see the issue with the mags.

    New Item Barrel, they are back for good!

    i hope your right with them back for good. that was the one thing i wanted out of the last stable update not for storage but because i could dye leather then again the animal count has been low so if it was added it would've only added to the frustrations of things so it was probably a good move keep up the work with you vids i'm not one to play experimental so i like how you guys take time and make these again much appreciated.

    Disease transfer to people in close vicinity.

    yeah i've been waiting on disease and stamina forever i'll wait longer but they need to add something more deadly than cholera that isn't even dangerous its to preventive they need something that you can catch like the flu or the common cold. cholera is a joke not as a mechanic or implementation but when it comes to being dangerous in game(and i'm sure in RL its bad shit) right now anyone who catches it well you suck.

    Theories on what happened to me!

    yeah as a guy said above it sounds like a setup. i did the same thing except i used the truck to bring folks to my group then we would hold them up then let them go. the best part was when they found out they were in a trap and we would come out of the brush and surround the truck. haven't did it in awhile folks get hip to the same ol tricks if you don't switch it up.

    Crafting - Using The Indoor Fireplaces Finally

    thats cool didn't know that was planned or even possible thanks for the heads up.
  23. gannon46

    Can you sneak/make no sound when walking?

    there was status report where they mentioned footwear was gonna have a difference on stealth at least with zeds. but hell if they can get footsteps to play as loud as a mouse fart stealth wise, some asshat with his super powered headphones made by nasa to hear life on other planets will hear you so in all you'll never be as quite as one would want.

    Namalsk and Mods

    http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/221758-status-report-3-mar-15/?hl=%2Bstatus+%2Breport found it.

    Namalsk and Mods

    not to derail but i second this would be nice to see levels of infected as to make them more dangerous and unique maybe some of the more dangerous could infect you easily if your ill equipped with facial and body protection. it would add tense moments where you would have to shoot which would increase your heat as well as make you have to think fast and act rather than using same old strategies and formulas. also namalsk is awesome and if i remeber there was a status reprt where they talked about getting SA to work on namalsk testing mod capability i'll search for it and post when found.
