Azrail (DayZ)

Panthera or Taviana.

for rocket-ing out loud ™, shit just got real.... i always say to myself, this can not possibly get any better. and then it does anyways. @rocket any chance you can look at my suggestions on reddit? http://www.reddit.com/user/LarsGG/ thanks!

it actually doesn't matter you have to take into account that anyone can be anywhere, watching you, stalking you, shooting bambies just for the lolz. the L85 can't make that any worse. what it does, it removes the element of stealth. this will help against campers, but it will also reduce the amount of tactics that can be applied. still the freedom of choice has a higher priority imo, so fixing the actual problem is better then just removing the whole gun. you can actually get killed by a tree, so dying to a L85 would at least be a legit kill i can agree with. if someone is camping solo with this beast, and i die to it, i call my friends to get there and grab it, i mean free L85 ftw :D a group camping with high gear in low risk low reward spots is annoying, but you just suck it up and just don't go there for the time being. dayz has been like that since the start and yet it got this far. and the L85 didn't magically become sooo imbalanced over night, it makes no sense to remove it now.

by the looks of it, the whiners win because those who have no problem with it will not likely come to the forums specifically to diskuss this matter. making this vote flawed to begin with. any chance to at least re-do the poll with adding my suggestion? my opinion + suggestion on this matter: rocket wants to give us options, and patching guns out is actually limiting options. so removing the L85 can't be in rocket's interest. instead, thermal sights should be adjusted, so that warm clothing (like you can get in namalsk) would actually reduce your thermal signature. then people can have a counter to thermal sights, but then again they can't wear a ghillie suit. so they have to decide which kind of cover is needed more likely. options :) and then i remember rocket stating, that he doesn't want DayZ to be a balanced game, much more like an anti-game, unfair and harsh and making you pull your hair out. maybe we should respect this and get back to the roots, DayZ is becomming to carebear friendly. i will admit that any gun with thermal sights has to be super rare, but i don't agree to take something out, just because people complain about it enough. by that argument we also need to remove 3rd person, nameplates and waypoints.

thats actually a sweet idea, install the DLC, rename the DLC folders, then install again for the other characters. then i only have to rename those folders when switching characters, gonna make me a batchfile to import registry keys & rename folders. i will post again if this one succeeded.

or... ...use the svd ...like a bouws B)

when you play namalsk on dayzcommander, you can't just install another dayz patch, because the namalsk mod doesn't include the dayz files and relies on the actual @dayz mod folder. and in play with six you can't easily install previos versions. you'll have to do things manually, easiest is to use dayzcommander, put namalsk & corresponding dayz version into one mod folder, name it "@DayZNamalskVesionXYZ" and put that one as dayz directory in settings. viola, you can now join servers running this verison of namalsk. if you want to go back to standard dayz, just untick the override option for your dayz directory.

posting that perfect spot on a public forum is exactly a genius idea, tell me more!! i won't abuse this and steal your chopper, promise!

here is what i use: dxtory it will still eat your harddisk alive depending on the codec you use, so make sure you have plenty GB free (80GB for 1 hour for me), according to the length of your footage, but it allows for best recording quality there is. it has a ton of features you don't get with fraps, like recording from multiple audio sources, writing two multiple disks at once to maximize recording fps, support for 3rd party codecs, etc.... and i think its even cheaper then fraps, while still being updated. edit: the settings are complex, but nothing you won't get to work within a reasonable time. especially setting up multiple audio channels is actually straight forward and self explanatory. if i can do that... and if you have additional sound apps running, like skype or media player you don't want to record, use virtual audio cable, its freeware i think. edit 2: reading your post once again, more carefully, it appears you actually have to use virtual audio cable. because you can't seperate the sound output from multiple apps otherwise, unless you use multiple soundcards which may cause trouble. i had the same problem when i started recording games, so this tool was a blessing. virtual audio cable will allow you to set up virtual soundcards. i use 4 virtual cards, set one as default, to play game and windows sound on. one for teamspeak, skype one for media player all three soundcards i will obviously route to output on speaker. now to record only game + ts + mic, i route those to the 4th soundcard i set in dxtory to record from. of if i'd want them to be seperate channels on the output file, i could create two more soundcards and set all three to record from seperately in dxtory, this allows to manually fix mic static or cut out that annoying burp. hope this helps, if you need further assistance send a pm.

i ask for help and already get accused for cheating and abusing the game, what did i think when i made this post? ok, while we already at it, lets give this a try. to make it easy for you, here are some examples: one for tactical squad play, one for playing with newbs, one to just fuck around with and do fun stuff. well basically that's my setup, and it works like that for quite a while now. but i would appreciate if i could use my BAF & PMC DLC for all three characters, without having to reinstall them everytime. i don't care if you like it or not, i know that i play this game legit, and mostlikely more hardcore then you do. unless you want to contribute anything useful to this topic, like a solution to my problem, gtfo please. thank you very much. damn you are so smart >.< if you troll, please at least read the OP

i am an absolute fan of realism, but this is just crap and makes the game unplayable in some situations. the first video above shows what i mean, just that its wayyyyy more intense for me. i know how the human eye adapts to incidence of light. in this game however, i look down on the floor (my location doesn't really matter) or just zoom on anything in with right mouse button, and my view turns into something that looks like my character suddenly went on a lsd trip. brightness and constrast goes up until it literally hurts my eyes, i am not kidding. i look back up at the sun just shining through leaves, everything turns into a mere shadow. if this is realistic, then maybe i should go see a doc, because something is very very odd with my eyes. that is WITHOUT adjusting any values. now trying to fix anything on my side will make it even worse. i have no idea if this might be a problem with my system, here goes: i7 2600k Asus EN6970 3GB 8GB RAM Windows 7 64bit and yea, everything is up-to-date. why am i posting this now? the problem existed before, somehow i used to just bear with it, but now i run a triple-monitor setup, and so i have to deal with the same problem, times 3. i need a fix for this, badly. @wolfstriked: the idea to simulate eye adaption is not bad, these kind of mechanics actually impress me. don't want this to be patched out, i would love if this could just be fixed: a ) adaption goes way to fast b ) the values applied are just mental (or make you go) c ) adpation shouldn't go from complete brightness to complete darkness just out in the open field

thats how people should play dayz. not whine and whine and whine about weapon x, y and z being soooo imba, until the dev's give in and remove them, just so that people finally stfu. granted, those people crying about the as50 and l85 will now jump on the dmr and m107, until those get the boot as well. and then we talk about assault rifles. up to a point when everyone gets a pistol + a hatched, and we are back at deathmatch in cherno.

why is that :( when we get rockets in a spawned helicopter, i can see no reason why we shouldn't be able to find some in military bases or helicrash sites, with very low spawn chance of course. at least as rare as the gauss rifle and ammunition, which is imho much more of a balance issue. if ammo is resupplied after a restart, it doesn't really matter anyways? after a few hours or at the latest on next day i will have another set of rockets, and finding rockets every day shouldn't really happen. either allow resupply and make it safe the state of ammunition for a restart, or remove the whole helicopter along with the ammunition, because it just make not much sense the way how it is right now... sharing 2cents for beans!

Azrail is considered being the angel of death in multiple religions, responsible to guard & guide the souls of dead people on their way to heaven. Thought that name fits well for PVP characters D: I also play under other names, but this is my "official" name i use to recognize myself in games. Edit: for anything non-gaming-related i go by the name algee, being the first letter of fore- and surname, spoken in english spelling pronunciation, making for a somewhat unique and short tag to identify myself. if you see it anywhere, chances are good it's me - reach out for a hug D:

by the way. is there any way to rearm the Ka-60 once its ammunition is depleted?

brilliant! so we spawn a char on every possible private hive and walk up to nwaf to find us a car with an mg. and then never play again on that hive.

i STILL have this issue as well. this issue is making dayz really hard to play, its either too dark or to bright when you look at something specific. like, if you look down on the floor, the contrast and brightness goes way up beyond realism. adjusting the values and look back at the sky, and the contrast and brightness goes way down, actually the problem here is dark days, not dark nights, lol might as well ask, any solution to this be found meanwhile?

yea wohoo, campers can finally camp in peace

you tame them with raw meat, and they will follow. you leave them alone for too long, they will wander off.

loosing blood means you cought an infection. coughing is just you having a cold. but people around you can hear it, so no more sneaking about. also, the jittering will nullify aiming over mid-long distance, so yes, finding stuff to keep you warm is #1 priority on namalsk. finding warm clothes is one part, it will hold the current temperature. but if you already are jittering, you will also need to find heatpacks to raise your temperature back up. i find plenty, just hang in there. check helicopter crashsites, they are scattered around the map and not as dangerous as army them bases. dayzdb.com if you want it easymode. and make sure to play with friends. namalsk solo is either suicide or boring as hell.

then why make it look like you do. how do you know your cd-key is "glitched", and what exactly does that even mean? now, try a reinstall and see how that goes.

its a planned feature. with reading the patchnotes i can find no indication that tells me otherwise. mayhaps?

oh please for the love of cake, at least any rough estimate? <3

all i hear is like a 12 yr old boy acting like he's really high roughly summarizing the info given by the patchnotes written right below what a waste of tubespace :thumbsup:

be glad you don't have to smell it i mean... immersion has its limits... ...right?
