    Disconnecting to avoid death

    Having a stable internet connection is not an unreasonable requirement for an online game. As for having to log out due to real life, just play when you aren't likely to be disturbed, that's what I do. Don't play at work, on the bus, while cooking, etc. There are plenty of games out there that can be played casually for 10 minutes at a time and won't be ruined because you have to answer the phone. DayZ is different, let's keep it that way. Also, don't answer the phone - it's always some jerk. If something is so important that you have to deal with it *right now*, it is probably more important than your pixelguy.

    Bleeding Out-

    Hello. During my nurse training I witnessed a man bleed out completely through a central line he had opened. It took about a minute, then there was about four liters of blood on the bathroom floor. It doesn't 'dry up', it really doesn't. Did I say a life threatening injury? Basic cuts dry and scab. I think the ingame bleeding is supposed to reflect life threatening injuries. That's why we can, you know, die from it. When that cross is blinking, it's not a papercut.

    Help me choose a graphic card please.

    Then why post it? OT: I agree that you should upgrade your power supply, It just might be the most important part of your system. If the PSU craps out, the rest of your bits are likely to die along with it. Use something like this: http://www.thermaltake.outervision.com/ to get an idea of your power needs. Personally I have a 5770 gpu and the game runs just fine, but then again, I don't care that much about eye candy. Get something better and you'll be set, it should be possible within your price range.

    n-sec 'logout-timer' + n-sec 'login-freeze'

    I don't think 'death by login freeze' would be inevitable, you just have to log out in a sensible place. Lying prone under a tree in the forest springs to mind. I go afk like that every time I have to go to the loo or similar, and I never died from it.

    Disconnecting to avoid death

    Agree. I would also be problematic if "your" server was down or got blacklisted. Besides, there are better ways to fix the problem. I believe I have one in my signature, please reply to it if you agree/disagree. It's the same stuff I've been posting in this thead, I just thought I'd make it 'official'. Of course it got trolled to hell but such is life.

I swear I predicted that in my Limerick thread, here: The minesweeper 'HMS Fairfield' was seen at the northwestern airfield a glitch or a bug? or maybe some schmuck has spawned it to use as a gun shield It was just a matter of time.

    n-sec 'logout-timer' + n-sec 'login-freeze'

    I have read the discussion and I took part in it, thanks. But as I tried to tell you, it is the wrong place for it. This place on the other hand, is known to the natives as 'The Suggestion Forum'. Fancy fucking that. If you don't have anything to add, and can't link to another thread on the same suggestion, kindly fuck away off. Does anyone have anything on topic to say?

    n-sec 'logout-timer' + n-sec 'login-freeze'

    Your first link is a different suggestion, I'm not going to hijack someone elses thread with different ideas. Your second link is to the new patch announcement, are you taking the piss?? That's for discussing the upcoming patch, I thought that was bleeding obvious. Thanks for pissing all over my thread you little gimp. Now would you kindly go troll somewhere else? EDIT: "Heh see as i was writing this another one pops up" What the buggery fuck does that have to do with my suggestion?

    n-sec 'logout-timer' + n-sec 'login-freeze'

    I have plowed through the first 10 (ten) pages of the suggestion forum, it is not there. Link, or it didn't happen. Does anybody else wanna chip in? I've been discussing this with people in the wrong places for a while now, thought it might be neat to do it in the actual suggestion forum.

    Teargas & Gasmasks

    This is a fantastic idea, I love gas masks! No, not in that way, quit looking at me like that!

    Please read OP before commenting. Please read OP before commenting. I knew this would happen. Note the second point: The bit about logging in to a server. That is not part of the usual timeout suggestion.

    Disconnecting to avoid death

    This would prevent teleporting but not server hopping for loot. If you add a n-second freeze in connect' date=' you get the best of both worlds. [/quote'] I agree 1 hr ban for leaving is too long and arbitrary, I say if you leave server A you can rejoin server A without penalty... unless you connected to another server (Server B) in which case you have a 10min ban on server A. That would stop the more obnoxious ghosting and wouldn't unduly inconvenience people either. 20 sec staying on server when disconnecting + 20 sec freeze on connecting. How about that?

    I did' date=' and I didn't ask, but it's not easy thumbing through all these constantly growing pages. It might not be a bad idea to update the main post with the new time. [/quote'] McTitties is right, if the OP gets updated, there will be less of those when-is-it-out questions.

    OP haven't said anything since the first page. This thread man, this thread.

    You can. I do. Just use the ARMA2_OA_Build_94103 beta patch. Not the latest Or' date=' just use the latest.

    Pending Update: Build 1.7.2

    Agree. I like how the community has been saying "hey, Rocket, our legs break to often", and he replies "here, have some beartraps!". I'm really looking forward to this patch. That said, I never break my legs, and hospitals have more morphine than God. Tips to not breaking legs: *Walk through doorways, don't crawl. If Z'ds are near, wait. *Sneak, that means assholes and elbows people. *Stay away from walls. Hudson already told you in Aliens, didn't he? "They're coming outta the walls. They're coming outta the goddamn walls. Let's book!" He did.
