    Rocket's contribution

    BCB and klesh already nailed it on what I was saying, and what rocket meant KOS doesn't ruin the game, it makes it what it is, when done right, when people kill each other just for sport, and it's usually by being sniped or shot in the back, that's not interaction, that's death matching, I can play halo if I want that with no conversation with players. I'd rather not know if the guy in front of me is a douche or not, and find out through interaction

    Rocket's contribution

    My understanding is that 1. He was homesick and always planned to return to his family. 2. He could see how dayz was turning out and knew it's biggest flaw - the people, can't be fixed, and there will always be KOS and stuff. 3. He wanted to work on a new project, which I believe he had ideas for many, and being that most games he enjoys is cult indie games like prison architect he will probably come out with something original again. 4. The community could be cruel, always giving abuse about the state of the game, or release dates on patches, even reddit users mocking his cat that had just died, making him close his reddit account I also believe he said that him being project lead had got to a point of not beneficial and essentially holding the team back creatively

    I run slow, is it lag, or something else?

    Back in the mod days I would always fall behind, because I was getting a constant low fps. Then when I tried a different dayz mod that improved performance, within seconds I thought wow they really increased the run speed, but the person I was playing with who had a better computer said it's the same as usual. Turns out I was just getting a constant good fps instead

    The Forest and dugouts!

    I remember this too, he compared it to separate instances in skyrim, where you walk through a door to a house and get a loading screen, and then can be loaded into the underground base separate from the main world Think that idea has been scrapped though

    Final Thoughts from an Early MOD player....

    I also agree and disagree. Standalone doesn't capture the same feeling the mod did, but at the same time it does have greater immersion and is a more authentic zombie apocalypse. I don't see why people say you are whining etc, you put up a descriptive post, instead of just saying it's crap. I would say wait and come back at final release, there might be enough change and additions that will recapture the glory days of the mod, perhaps even surpass them

    [Suggestion] Add effects before 'You are Dead' sign

    I like the colour fade, but the blurryness is too much, and is pretty sudden rather than gradual I get what you mean though, keep you are dead screen, but maybe if you are on almost no blood you might fall down and start dying, rather than waiting til you have no blood and just just dropping dead. This could work, especislly watching other people's reactions as you slowly and painfully die, some might mercy kill, some might try to help, some may just start searching your pockets before your body is cold

    [Suggestion] Add effects before 'You are Dead' sign

    I like the sudden totality of the simple you are dead text, so plain and empty, gives you a feeling of emptyness when you suddenly die and you stare trying to comprehend I would however prefer better effects for unconsciousness though, such as fading to black, or drifting in and out of consciousness like arma 3

    [poll] Please bring back the Burlap Gun Wrap!

    Great idea, id love to see it back, tried making one recently with the intention of NOT making it into a ghillie wrap. I think it looks nice, and can cover your gun without having to go full army dude

    see no more join=kick servers? you're welcome

    Good job man, seriously Though I think some claim to be running events and stuff and kick ya, even though there's only 1 person on the server

    Where to go when I first spawn...?

    I'd say either East or West is fine, if you get south coast, you will end up in elektro or cherno, East is berezino and elektro, can't go wrong either way
  11. Alpher but seriously, they have improved quite abit, used to go through just about anything, now only sometimes go through doors, that's Improvement, and now they don't open doors (I think) just sometimes pass through a door that was recently closed. stone knife suicide was taken out as people could easily spawn cycle, being that that you mention that and drowning yourself, you probably do that alot Lastly, if the server lags it can slow down hot bar switching, however dragging to your hands works well. Or open your gear, then press the hot bar key, should be instant every time

    DayZ interface resolution is at 1920x1080x32

    Aswell as interface resolution, there's another setting in graphics for rendering r solution, make sure they are the same. Also try adjusting aspect ratio 16.9 or 10 is usually for, wider screens, 4.3 I think is for standard square monitors

    One thing: View server name in game.

    Also been wanting this for some time, mainly when a friend is joining and you can't remember the many you tried. even if It just showed up in the player list menu, rather than a dedicated button

    Cannot see my mouse in DayZ

    Seems like a compromise, though think it was the same for me in windowed did the text settings in control not help?

    Cannot see my mouse in DayZ

    Did you try the tetext setting? That's what did it for me csn you still click things if you move the cursor around and randomly click?
