Wow people can really complain about anything.

Earlier at Balota I was desyncing so bad it wouldn't let me change weapons or open doors. After all the desync stops, I hear a bunch of zombie growls bunched together then I'm suddenly getting the crap beaten out of me by invisible zombies. Great way to go from healthy to almost dead :C

Hate to be that guy but, "It's alpha". The net code is always going to be shit relatively, but give it a year or two and you'll find that a lot of these issues are going to be resolved or greatly improved. But you are right about the engine limitations, this whole engine needs to be scrapped. If ArmA 4 is still on the same damn engine I'm gonna kill myself.

I don't see how you got to that conclusion at all. He just asked what places we think look the best..

Mind sharing what has upset you?

This happens to the best of us, when you first start playing you will find yourself making stupid mistakes and getting yourself killed. Over time you'll become the one killing these people who make stupid mistakes.

This is already part of Chernarus, it's called Green Mountain. Chernarus is based on a real country.

I don't see how it would work in DayZ. You'd be better off buying ArmA 3, because it doesn't sound very likely. I am very hopeful for an Altis Life Standalone though :D.

There's really no developer team, Dean just sits in his basement and codes on a laptop all day.

It's applicable to any game that involves aiming and shooting. It is simply a fact that a mouse can aim way more precisely than a controller, and if you think aiming precisely isn't an important part of DayZ you might be insane. OT: How does using a controller play out for you, is the game more or less clunky? Also do you not fear that you will be at a disadvantage in firefights?(no aim assist in DayZ).

Honestly even if they got the game up to battlefield 3 in terms of optimization then his rig will still struggle. Getting a whole new PC seems like the most logical thing to do, $200 isn't going to get him anywhere in upgrading terms.

Why is everything you say on every post completely unhelpful or simply rude. Though I think it is time to get a whole new PC, you're going to be spending quite a bit if you want DayZ to run a lot better and why not throw a couple hundred ontop of that and get yourself a whole new rig? No need to spend a whole grand though.

I'm pretty sure that processor has a locked multiplier anyway, so he can't overclock it. Really even if he could he would be still seeing poor performance because his whole rig is out of date. My advice, just save to buy a whole new rig, I really suggest building it but if you're positive you don't want to and are okay with lower performance for more money then go ahead and buy what you can.

For only $150, I don't think there's anything you can do. To make the game play better you're gonna need a new graphics card, processor, power supply, motherboard, and a ram upgrade would help a bit.

I hope it's better than ArmA 3's rag doll physics.

I don't really think you can. If you can you're probably not gonna get more than 15 FPS anywhere, and thats if you lower your resolution a lot and play at the absolute lowest.

What are the specs of your new laptop?

If you're getting like 2 fps, then that PC will be a great boost from that. The graphics card is pretty low end, i'd suggest atleast a radeon hd 6670/gtx 640 or something higher. Is this a custom built PC or a pre-built? And how much are you buying it for?

Even with the terrible grammar, I agree. It seems a lot of the people here didn't actually take the time to understand the post and just bashed on him. It really does make no sense to shoot someone in the chest then every single thing they have is damaged, but I'm pretty sure they're working on that.

It's definetly possible to stop teleport hacks, and has been before. There will always be some sort of hacking but it is very possible to stop teleporters.

I'm pretty sure a baby crying for 30 seconds would be too much, people could easily hear something like that when they didn't even know you were there and kill you when you wouldn't have even been killed. A little "beep-boop" sound or something would suffice.

Even if you made it so I instantly died as soon as I killed another player, I'd still shoot someone on sight every once and a while just for shits and giggles.

This isn't really a problem, more of a solution. If you could see tall grass everywhere, only people with high end rigs would be able to get anything above 30 fps. I think snipers being able to see you is less of a problem then getting 13 fps everywhere.

The zoom isn't an unrealistic magical feature as it seems to be. As said by one of the mods before(forgot which one) your eyes have a much better "resolution" than your monitor does, allowing you to see much further than you could in DayZ. The zoom is added to compensate for this fact. Don't imagine zooming as a magical advantage, but imagine not being zoomed in as a crippling disadvantage. As for the actual topic of this post, I 100% support adding binoculars. Binoculars are one of the core things to the game that I expected to already be in the game when it was released for alpha testing, but since I don't own the game yet this is my first time hearing that binoculars have not been added. Dean give binoc pls

I don't see what you mean about DayZ mod. The mod has barely changed, all they really did that was major was add as50 and add the infections you can get easier.
