You make a great point. Maybe since this early access thing is a pioneering event, maybe it should change the development cycle itself. It seams as though the project is moving as though people arent playing it, merely testing it. and while thats true in a sense maybe the real way to do this is cater to the playerbase a little more all the while developing.

For shits and giggles I decided to do some PS4 simulations. I clocked an amd 8350@ 1.6ghz, used a radeon 260x (which is a rebranded 7790 which is inferior to the gpu that the ps4 has) and ran me some dayz and frapsed it. Enjoy! *withdrawn sorry for any inconvenience*

I have begun to accept that the development cycle is consistent with any other alpha build and have moved towards being bitter that they used our goodwill from the mod to purchase something unplayable. But we get what we deserve. We were told its alpha, but most of us having never participated in an alpha build of anything outside of Linux programs felt it would be something other than what it is. But it is what it should be, we are foolish for having expected more.

Its a bug in my brain, turns out if your objects are tied to a different instance they don't show up. Fak im stupid

I remember this from the mod. The key is to go prone!

I wish i could say just password it, but that's not allowed. And even if this hack is patched, until they allow some sort of control over your player base, you are limited to battleye. And as soon as a new hole is patched up the hackers find a new one to crawl through. Shame really.

This happens on my server regardless of timing, player counts etc.

Sounds like a version issue or something; make sure you are running the same version of your mod(and that the mod is loaded) and arma. Honestly it just sounds like you are trying join without the mod loaded. This is a DayZ mod forum(Epoch is a dirty word round these parts), but I'm happy to help before it gets locked ;) Good luck mang. Ps if that fails to help the epoch forums might be a better place to ask for help.

Love your avatar ;)

Great job. Very well done. Have some beans

As is the case with your PC. Although I'm working on a hack to get Windows to run off my modem :P

No argument there, but as I made sure to point out in all my posts regarding this matter, the acceptability of performance assumes a more optimized (think multithreaded with gpu calls that were previously CPU calls) engine. Which they know they have to do and combined with the control scheme is probably the lions share of the porting process (chime in anytime accolyte)

That is kind of thinking is antiquated

False, higher clock speed yes but same architecture with half the amount of cores plus much higher latency between system components. And this assumes a multithreaded engine. in addition the system is optimized to run nothing but the game and related services; no print spooler, no iTunes helper. A simple look at your task manager will show you all the little things chewing up your cycles that will not be have an impact on PS4 titles. The Cpu in PS4 can also clock itself higher to an, as of yet unknown, higher clock speed. Bottom line is: it sports better specs than many, if not most, PC's that attempt to run the game in its current unoptimized state. People like us with serious hardware will always prefer to run the PC version of any game but that doesn't mean the PS4 will be incompetent in its abilities. Small PS. Sony has stated many times that it is selling PS4's at a loss so the $400 price tag isn't anything to judge its capabilities on. However even if you were so inclined $400 can get you a fairly decent bang for your buck

I'm not making it out to be anything, those are the specs. Do they have to dumb down DayZ to play on a computer with an AMD chip and a even a Radeon 7850? I fail to see your logic DD. The answer is they dont. Plus consider the development of a multithreaded engine.

Yeah I think its a leftover mentality from the PowerPC console days. The PS4 has an 8 core x86 processor and a Radeon 7870 paired with 8Gb of GDDR5. Once the engine becomes multithreaded it will run like a beast.

Not sure what everyone is arguing about. A DayZ console port has far to little impact on any of our lives to warrant such aggression as displayed above. If DayZ becomes shit due its availability on PS4 then rest assured someone will make the product you are looking for on PC so they can take your money. Arma 3 2017 is also in the works which looks promising, and the mod is better than ever. It seems to me most people (myself included) are too hung up on DayZ SA not being the game you want. Go back to the mod for a while, its still really fun and there are enough pure vanilla servers to satiate all of us. The mod is still fun and hard as shit. The Zombies work, the loot works, tents work, stashes work, there are lots of guns and TBH the Arma 2 graphics aren't too damn shabby. The graphics as well can be made a lot more bloomy with sweetfx or other shader mods. And since everyone is complaining about the hats and track pants you are in luck as you will find none of those there.....

This question cannot be answered without context. Price per $, maximum performance, single threaded vs multithreaded apps. Temps/power etc etc. So lets ask some of these questions. 1. Money be damned, who makes the best CPU? - Intel 2. Bang for your buck who gives you the best CPU? - AMD 3. Who has the best per core performance? - Intel 4. Who's related platforms(motherboard etc) are more affordable? - AMD 5. Who's CPU's are in modern consoles from which most new games are optimized and ported? - AMD 7. Who's chips run hotter? - AMD 8. Who chips use more power? - AMD We could go on, but the answer of what is best is tied to what caters to your needs.

No sir there are some left http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/208211-pure-vanilla-dayz-by-bakerland/

-=Bakerland=- PURE VANILLA DAYZ! No side chat, no mods, regular weather and time, minimal BEC messages. 6 Hour Restarts. Just pure DayZ the way Rocket/R4Z0R49 intended it. 184.164.143.123:2302 www.bakerland.ca

Time zone is "Mountain"

Thanks man. I agree ;) There arent many "DayZ" Servers anymore.

Just wanna throw this out there, I own a PS4 and the gear in my sig. If you fuggers can make a finished, polished DayZ Standalone then I'd play it on a god damned Commodore. God speed!

Many a hearts were broken that day...........
