Perhaps the OP just had a really bad HDD which wasn't loading all the objects and textures quickly enough and just moving to a new drive fixed the issue.

IDK maybe you might. If you could leave all your stuff at your base and head out unarmed (except maybe an aex for zeds) nobody is going to shoot you down unless they're a dick which will happen from time to time. I guess how you approach people plays an important part in it.

Oh quit whining you butthurt little twit. You obviously hate BIS and Hate dayz so why are you even here? All you do is bitch about how you know every single fact in the universe and you know everything there is about game development and the gaming industry and you know fuck all but please, prove me wrong. Let's see your resume. Let's see the proof of your industry experience. Let's see the evidence of your research and let's see all the articles you've written on the gaming world. You're the ignorant one here and you're pathetic. Yes you're right, BIS are a bunch of money grabbing assholes and we're all fan boys now piss off Sergey - Warz was utter shite just as much as Big Rigs was and you're not fooling anyone here.

I tried a similar approach with a boat builder lol. "Why haven't you put the doors on my cabinet!!! I want the doors!!!" "Because I haven't even made the frame yet now fuck off and let me finish it!"

I used to get that too for a couple of seconds, this time it lasted about 20 lol

On a server restart the other day I spawned inside the Jail at NEAF and I could see through all the walls, even the guy in the top room looting it who I could have easily killed. I ran out and left him to it then logged off - kind of dampened my spirit to play,

You quoted someone quoting me, thereby directly linking me with your reply. I see nothing there that omit's me from a 1st person fanatic lol.

Point out my strawmen please and the rest of my post was making a point. You can highlight a million reasons why development might be slow to you, and they can all still be wrong. It still isn't understanding the alpha process or what issues and obstacles the dev team have in coding the game. Until you are privy to that information why do we have to put up with whiners demanding the game gets made quicker when they have no understanding of what is going on. People are making out that BIS are making a cash grab, my post went someway to try and explain why I think that isn't the case by providing information some information that has already been posted.

A lot of people cannot grasp this concept that you explain and think that because both have access to 3rd person, both are on equal footing yet demonstrably it is provable that both are not equal. The one time someone responded to this line of thought was to say "Well if they're both at the end of a brick wall." This however never happens in DayZ (or if it does is so rare to be discounted) and what you describe about the jackass coming out from cover is exactly how these people use it. Wait until they aren't looking your way for a cheap and easy kill that you could not have gotten if you were playing via first person. It's the cheapness of the kill that people don't like, not to mention all the other things 3rd person ruin.

ok.

AFAIK BIS bought a software house from the profits, thus expanding the company and that software house is working on the zeds. The team working on the hunting is being paid to do the work but haven't been purchased by BIS. BIS also have other projects they are working on i suspect (why wouldn't they? They still need to work on Arma3). They are also a small company so it would be stupid to just throw out money on buying a hundred staff just so they could make the game a little quicker because of some self entitled gamers that think they should have a fully working game yesterday. Whiney selfish knobs tend to get ignored in reality. I don't think BIS are selfish. I remember reading Dean saying in an interview that he wanted BIS CEO to charge more for the SA EA but the CEO said no. They could have charged more and people would have paid it like BIS could cut their modding ability and charge for DLC's or they could make arma just like cod and sell out to the idiot crowd of players and make 10 times the money. What you need to ask is why in all these years BIS haven't sold out and have a solid community behind them (even if they do wind us up with every new release of Arma).

Yeah when you learn how the real world works you'll understand how ridiculous that sounds. I don't pretend to know anything about game development so I don't come howling onto the forums demanding things like a 2 year old throwing his teddy out the pram (I'm not sya you are like this, btw). I did a little coding at college but that was years ago so I have at least a basic understanding of how things work. So can you tell me why you think BIS are so incompetent by drawing on your vast knowledge of making video games? Could you provide references on titles you've worked on in the past? Could you also show you business acumen and list corporations you have started which have been successful? No you can't so why do you think you have the answer to how BIS should run their business and code their games? It sounds like you're just demanding they make the game quicker because you want to play it. You do realise that you can still play it 6 months from now, right? So what's the rush?

Nope I'm not.What I am doing is showing how crap your arguments are and how you can't just go around asserting things and expecting everyone to take your word for it. I'm also refraining from resorting to ad hominems as I don't require those to bolster up my argument and for somebody that doesn't want to argue, why do you keep replying. I'm not forcing my opinion on anyone but I'm also not making BS claims as if they were facts.

AS do I as you'll see a few posts down from the one you quoted. However, what we are really talking about is a preponderance of hackers like it was in the mod and that simply is not the case. Hackers won't ever go but they're not ruining the game as is what is being made out here - that it's so bad it's noteworthy. If it was that bad we would see evidence of it.

Seriously, you think your opinion on everything is right and everyone else around you is wrong. Now I have to read forums the way you think I should as well as imagine up what the game industry is doing right now along your lines of thinking? Wow what other group of people from history had that attitude in wanting to force their opinion and values on everyone else?

Does anyone saying they can't understand why the zombies can't be fixed know anything about coding AI or making them interact with the 3D environment? Everyone here seems to be an expert and yet when people who know what they are talking about post up some facts, they seem to get wholly ignored.

These are the people that would die in a RL Zombie Apocalypse btw

Regardless of when you posted it, doesn't mean that's when I read it, does it you? Let me draw this in crayon for you. Read this page http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/186272-looking-back-do-you-think-that-ea-release-was-a-good-idea/page-9 Most people start from the top and work their way down so when I got to this reply of yours http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/186272-looking-back-do-you-think-that-ea-release-was-a-good-idea/page-9#entry1923494 I made a reply to it. I hadn't read further down the thread. Is that clear enough for you? You just love to argue and you can't stand being wrong. Your baseless assertions a re pathetic, you obviously hate the SA because it hasn't been made to your specifications and yet all you have to back up why it's so shit is your shitty opinion which nobody cares about. Just go and play something else if you hate it so much it's much better than getting angry about it.

Where on earth did you get me saying that one first person shooter is no different from another first person to it's the only way to play?? You both need to learn to read and stop misquoting people. Neither of your replies make any sense at all to what I posted.

You have the issue with reading here since I quoted you before I got to your reply about how you play the game? Did you not know you're meant to read posts in order, from the top down to the bottom? About cheating, once again you make assertions with clearly no evidence to back it up. Plenty of people have reported never seeing and cheaters in the game. Do they exists - of course they do they're in every game you play.

What? I am calm but it's hard to work out nonsensical claims. It's different from what? You do know I was talking about one FPS compared to DayZ right, not RL? Go back and read his post and my reply to his post again.

It's called playing regular mode way too much and being used to it. Play enough HC mode and it will be fine unless you're one of the few human beings on this planet who's brain isn't able to adapt to it's surroundings, which I don't believe for a second ;) It's the same as any other video game. WTF are you talking about? All FPS's work exactly the same except in Arma/Dayz you can move your head independent of your body. You can change the FOV too. How is moving a square window around to view the world different from moving a square window around to view the world??

To me, when I play a game, I want to immerse myself into that character. First person is where my eyes are in world. If I look around I'm not a floating camera, I have a body. When I want to play a zombie apocalypse, I don't want a cheap experience where I can cheat and look over things and never be surprised. I want to crap my pants when a zombie leaps at me when I'm not expecting it. I want challenge - I want to have to sneak around zombies knowing any mistake I make could be fatal. I want to hunt players also knowing mistakes can get me killed - 3rd person removes all of this.

Hey I am calm it's just the way I talk ;)

What gets me is how he's but hurt the SA is going in the same direction as the mod? I mean wtf? The SA IS the mod but done right, what the fuck else does anyone expect?
