    Want to buy DayZ? Don't.

    That video has been posted many times here, sometimes even in the corrct forum area. Locked, please use one of the other threads to discuss this video.

    I thought we were gonna have radios?

    Hello HumanBeing25, you know you are not welcome around here.
  3. It's a link to his blog. @OP: Please don't use the forum to link your blog.

    Fix (not remove) Third Person Perspective

    The problem with that is, the devs will have to work on two games for the price of one. It also creates a 'brand' problem, for lack of a better word. I think there needs to be a clearer 'image' of what DayZ is. EDIT: The ninjas are getting restless.

    Fix (not remove) Third Person Perspective

    You haven't countered, or even touched upon, any of his arguments. All you did there was declare people who disagree with you 'army wannabees' and tell them to play other games. You are not being part of this debate, you are standing at the side yelling at the people who are. As for DayZ not being an army game, you are right. It is not an army game. It is, however, attempting to be authentic. Therefore, real world tactics should be viable.

    Fix (not remove) Third Person Perspective

    The purpose of suppression fire is not only to keep you from returning fire, but also to pin you down and keep you from maneuvering while someone else flanks you. With 3rdP view you aren't pinned down, as you can easily see which area is being peppered and which isn't. You don't have to take chances, you aren't being limited in the way you are when you view the world through your eyes. EDIT: Damn you guys are fast. You may be a lot more badass than I, but I would never poke my head around a corner that is being machinegunned at. Certainly not for the amount of time you get when you peek with 3rd.

    You still have to expose yourself, even if only a little, to peek around (or over) a wall in real life. If someone is spraying said wall with machinegun fire, you would not want to do that. This is another problem with 3rdP as I see it, it makes suppression fire useless.
  8. Merged. This applies to you as well: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/149462-cth-and-sth-rival-clans/?p=1487657
  9. This thread is for collecting news and updates from the developers. Post them as you find them, then I'll add them to the OP for easy reference. Please discuss updates elsewhere on the forum, posts not providing new content will mysteriously disappear. --------------------------------------------------------------*******--------------------------------------------------------- January 14th: Brian Hicks ‏@Hicks_206 A Russian gentleman going by the name Gena happens to be the 1,000,000th person to login to DayZ and create their first character. Dean Hall ‏@rocket2guns fix combat logging and some other big bugs next goal :P Chris Torchia ‏@ctorchia A 'WIP of the week' pic. You've seen it teased but soon you'll be able to find it. January 16th: Not strictly external, but... We'll keep it till patch drops. Both of these issues have already been fixed and will be pushed in our next patch. January 17th: Brian Hicks ‏@Hicks_206 Working on finalizing work on the next update, network issues slowing internal testing to a crawl though.. :( Brian Hicks ‏@Hicks_206 Prepping for patch notes and experimental branch update.

    Why don't you tell us what the problem is?

    News and Developer Updates from external sources

    And thus endeth my little experiment, what the hell was I thinking... Well, let me explain: 1. I made the thread as a response to this post by BL1P: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/165136-request-pinned-news-and-updates-from-external-sources/#entry1670061 2. I didn't want to look all over the internet for updates, so I most cleverly thought I'd let forum member help out. 3. I didn't want to look through page after page of off-topic stuff every day to find the updates, so I made it clear that off-topic posts would be hidden. 4. I thought people wouldn't ignore the OP completely. Experiment failed. Point number 4 was daft. Have it your way then. I'll release this thread, you may do with it as you please (within reason and forum rules). OP will no longer be updated. Unpinned. Unlocked. Moved to General Discussion.

    News and Developer Updates from external sources

    Patch is not out yet, I meant the patch notes. Here they are: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/165709-pending-changelog-experimental-branch-031114343/ Reading the OP makes sense. Staying on topic makes sense. Setting up a dev-tracker sub-forum is not part of my responsibilities. Please don't abuse the report system. Good luck. Maybe you can replace me?

    The patch is already out... EDIT: Sorry, I meant the patch notes are out.
  14. I think it's almost wednesday in Australia now.

    Less Concentrated Spawn Points

    I think the 'Cons' should be 'Pros' as well.

    The problem with the server

    Make sure your antivirus software isn't sandboxing the game. That could also cause it.

    From where I'm sitting, it looks like you are both just grinding against each other. Neither will budge, neither will let the other get the last word. We need a fresh perspective here, but sadly there isn't much new to be said. This discussion has been running since 2012 and just about everything has been covered. Personally, I'm taking the 'let's-wait-and-see-what-Rocket-comes-up-with' approach. It's easier, calmer and just as effective as yelling at the internet.

    Fix (not remove) Third Person Perspective

    I have asked for civility many times here, but you refuse to listen. Post any more like that above and I will make you go away. Some people are trying to have a debate in here and some are trying to ruin it. I have no more patience for the latter group. You all know which group you belong to. No, topic please.

    I need help

    Hi, and welcome. If you can't see any servers on the list, it might be because the server browser defaults to the 'lan' tab. Click 'internet' in the upper left corner. I hope it helps.

    Polaroid Cameras

    Good idea, I would love to see more of that kind of items. Normal stuff that actually works.

    Bulletin board [SA]

    Nice idea, I would definitely check such a board when entering a town. It would be fun to see what kind of crazy shit people would think of using it for.
