Pending Changelog: Experimental Branch: 0.42.116002
monolith1985 replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
breaking point zombies are quite derpy. i think people who complain about the state of the game should just come back in a year when its actually released -
DayZ Commander Downloads Mods Slowly
monolith1985 replied to Lockdown Loaded's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
i had this problem last night when updating to the latest build of epoch, just restarted commander and it went fine -
Pending Changelog: Experimental Branch: 0.42.116002
monolith1985 replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
i agree it would be nice to get more info/updates on the official forum, rather than every social media site i dont wanna join. -
id suggest setting your vram in graphics settings to match your card, rather than auto. i have a 1gb card yet it moved up to 2gb somehow and my screen went blank, maybe try older drivers like fish suggested? I have a gts450 which is a really old card and it usually handles fine
-
i think i seen in someones youtube video they had a group of guys running around looking to fight while playing mortal kombat, no idea who it was though I think such random encounters is a great part of dayz, means not everyone takes the game too serious, and some people would actually turn crazy if a zombie apocalypse broke out

Do You Belive Players Who Shot Unarmed And Friendly Fresh Spawns Are Bad?
monolith1985 replied to leefriendfield's topic in General Discussion
yeah they suck, a good bandit would try take control of the situation, such as injuring the fresh spawn, or handcuffing or putting a sack on their head before leaving, rather than just kill pointlessly -
so me and my brother share a pc, and could normally play fine separately, but my brother returned recently to playing after being off for a while, and when he signs into his account and runs the game, he is my character, instead of his own. it worked fine before though. we both have separate steam accounts, and both purchased the alpha on our account
-
cant play on same pc with different accounts
monolith1985 replied to monolith1985's topic in Troubleshooting
lol yes he is, we each have to sign in each time steam launches -
How do you guys feel aboutr this as a sniping spot (Elektro)?
monolith1985 replied to thequantum's topic in General Discussion
wont make much of a difference to those who lower their graphics making bushes alot easier to see through also, you on "counter sniper hill" named that because other people go there to shoot whoever is on sniper hill, so chances are its not that safe. also, if you are there, it looks like you are just watching people going into the power plant just to snipe them, without motive, rather than protecting friends in town going to loot, so I hope it ends badly for you -
havnt had that issue myself, but logged into experimental tonight to find the grass and trees turning white, so i turned alpha-to-coverage off altogether. could help?

3 New pistols in DayZ Standalone Experimental
monolith1985 replied to GriefSlicer (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
i also wondered why the put in the 1911, simply because i dev wrote in the devtracker saying he didnt see the point in adding another .3 revolver aswell as the python. still, it means i have better chance of finding a gun that takes 45acp instead of finding lots of ammo but no fnx to use it with didnt manage to find any of the new guns myself tonight, just 9mm ammo :( -
i would of said it would be a more upper class coat and flat cap, though the cap would work well as a farmer hat
-
yeah can't remember seeing that at least in the recent season, what episode?
-
Is this a new Zombie being added in? New pistol?
monolith1985 replied to Irish.'s topic in General Discussion
ive seen one of them zeds around elektro i think, might of also been experimental branch hope the mk 2 isnt too weak against zombies and players when at close range -
never really thought about firefighter clothes before, but it looks really good, maybe also some doctor/medic clothing
-
Please add a death playback /killcam optional function into the GAME
monolith1985 replied to msy's topic in Suggestions
death is meant to be the way it is in dayz, sudden, and empty, thats why you get a plain "you are dead" message. if you got shot in the back of the head you would just die with no clue how, just like in real life. dayz isn't the place for action replays -
problem with light sources in game is although they are good and look awesome, people wont use them for fear of being spotted easier. Personally in the mod i liked going around with a chem-light at night in the standalone i tested using a gas lamp to go around in, i was in elektro police station, turned it on, then after a few seconds walked outside with it, barely out the the door and someone shot me, but they also damaged the light, which allowed me to escape in the dark
-
We are inducting a large number of new people to the team, effectively doubling the whole project. Explain.
monolith1985 replied to 360Nation's topic in General Discussion
more people to work on more features and more bugs fixes. Also i think new staff that might have better or different skills to work on certain things. Such as the new team working on hunting, think i heard rocket say some are people who have worked on hunting games before? I could be wrong -
thats why i think some people dont understand the eating/healing system, because they die too easily not realising their health is low, thinking they are in good shape because they have full blood. to be honest i didnt fully understand it until about 2 weeks ago when i seen a video that explained the blood and health systems, as well as the difference between not being hungry, and fully fed (energized)
-
yeah i understand it pretty well thanks. my statement to his eating habits was that after he got shot that is when he chose to binge eat, much like you would in the mod. However in the standalone you would typically binge eat in advance, to get your status up to healing/healthy, so if you get shot you can just bandage at let the healing process start right away
-
i like the new healing system, makes sense you would recover health and regain blood through keeping healthy. unlike some people who think since they have full color they must have full blood, and therefore health. I dont think everybody understands the healing system, i shot a guy then ran off, he ran into a building, and i could hear him constantly eating, must of thought it still works the old way
-
I was dying of hunger then ate, then was dying of thirst, got water and now screen is pixelated.
monolith1985 replied to wmike20052's topic in General Discussion
your health is probably low, so eat and drink til you are energised and hydrated and you will eventually get a healing indicator -
personally i would like to see the bag at the right of the gear, so you can see all and sort it without scrolling up and down
-
theres the mass grave, one beside the bus at krutoy cap. otherwise im mixed about this. on one hand it would allow for more scenery, on the other hand, id rather see dead zombies and players as the bodies, instead of them disappearing immediately or after 10 minutes. i think that would tell a better story than prop corpses
