Not sure why in the OP you said not to suggest anything about the Arma 3 engine.. But, I do hope they use the Arma 3 engine solely for the fact of combat realism. That's what makes Dayz so much fun. If Dayz had an engine like say, Call Of Duty, then I dont believe 1/4 of the people would be playing right now. I think they should work on the combat simulator part of the game first, and then implement Dayz into it again. Because obviously having the knowledge of both now, I'd assume that they could make it a much smoother integration than the current.

Just a warning, everyone on US 104 just got killed by a hacker, stay away.

You're a sniper, which means you went out to a military post or airfield or wherever to find your rifle. Then you thought, hey i'll go down to cherno again and shoot some nubs on the coast, so you ran all the way back down... I guarantee of those 11 you killed that probably just spawned in cherno/elektro, most of them were unarmed. Otherwise they wouldn't have been running around there. Only an idiot gets geared up and then goes back to cherno just to run and search buildings for tin cans. I wouldn't boast too much about your play style, makes you look kinda like a pussy. And then you come on here and bitch when you die after killing a bunch of respawns in elektro? Seriously? mfw little girls crying about karma.

I feel the same.. Yogs is for a bunch of little kiddies. I don't really mind if a bunch of kids start playing, gives me more easy targets to shoot at. Then they will rage and just stop playing... They'll leave soon enough.

You're not missing much. The M249 sucks, it's weak.

I think a sale would be a good idea for them, I've got a bunch of friends who are wary about dropping 30 bucks on a game that's in alpha. Well, not a bunch, but at least 3-4 friends that wont give in just because all of the crap negative reviews the game has had because people are butthurt about little things in the game. *edit* I say "30 bucks on a game", but I mean mod, but generally speaking... All the new players buy Arma II for Dayz, so it sorta fits.

On my way.

Troll detected. :sleepy:

At the end of 2010 it was estimated that 45% of Americans own guns. That's a pretty decent amount, my friends and I, most relatives etc. own guns. No we aren't redneck, we like to hunt though. I'd have enough guns for a few people, as would most of the other people that I know own guns. Most people don't just own ONE gun. And yeah, I agree with the water/food thing. Its funny how back and fourth people are on realism with this game. "Let's take away everything, that makes it more realistic!" Christ, why do we even have a backpack? I'm going to pack this backpack to survive, better put just this flashlight in there so I don't have to hold onto it because my hands will be so full. Oh yeah, and one bandaid and some advil, I'm set!

Haha, I think the same thing. Who cares wtf people call it, you know what they are talking about. Some people just love to bitch about the smallest insignificant little things.

Yeah, CZ has zeroing. Set the zeroing to what ever the distance your target is at, and put the crosshair exactly where you want it to go. Just have to know how far the target is. But if the target is 800m away and you set the zeroing to 800, it should be dead on.

People are still using 32-bit windows? 0_0 You'll have to reinstall windows to go from 32->64.

Learn to headshot and it only takes one bullet. I'd rather have the revolver or 1911 just because I dont have to take my time and aim for the head, but ammo capacity is nice for the PDW. Not to mention the PDW can shoot PDW mags, MP5, MP5SD, and I believe M9/M9SD magazines..

+1 for sidechat coming back.. I mean, wtf. Completely makes his shirt that he wore to E3 just look dumb now. Because now you cant even ask that in the game, well you can but 40m sure doesn't go far, or even if you use voice, 80m is still super short. If you don't like the side chat, then don't use it. Don't take it away from the ones who actually read and use it. We play multiplayer games online because they are MULTIPLAYER. Running around not being able to talk to anyone else detracts from the sense of actually playing with other people. (not talking about playing with your friends) Might as well just port this to single player then too.

If I get the drop on people, I usually KOS just because that's what everyone else does, and I'm not about to lose all of my gear that took hours to aquire, JUST to see if someone is friendly. I don't really care, all I'm worried about is surviving and keeping the 5 others I play with alive as well.

Are you guys recruiting still?

Arma 2 isn't free, but there is a free version with restricted graphics quality. It looks pretty bad. But it's free and then all you need is the OA expansion for day z to work.

I like how he states "Now, this is not a cry post, believe me you." When that is exactly what this is, asking for some of his gear back. Not really sure how that could be construed differently. You have to start over. We've all had to do it, its your turn.

dude, I thought my system was bad... You're going to have to buy a new computer to keep up... Its not an option but its the only solution.. My computer running this game has problems and i've got a 2.8ghz overclocked to 3.0ghz dual core, 4gb ddr2 ram, 9800GTX+ video card, 850w PS. You dont have much of a choice.. Not everything is possible.. you'll have to upgrade everything to make it run this game.. or find a used system for cheap thats got better than what i've listed for my computer. All of which can be done for $700+/- building your own PC from newegg with a 3.4ghz quad core, 8gb 1600mhz memory, 500gb HD and, including a decent $200 video card. If you want me to personally build you a PC to your budget, send me a PM. I have fun building systems.

Go for it.

I dont see a problem with starting with a weapon. If this were real life, i'd have rifles and pistols already at my disposal that I own, as would many of other Americans. (not so much for europeans) I think that starting off with no weapon was a big mistake and I agree with the OP. I died a couple of times restarting because I had no weapon and it was dark out, flashlight doesn't really do squat. Run into a zombie and you're fked. Probably wont be playing until the next patch.

I dunno about you but I think that watches are spawning like crazy. I found 4 watches in one building, ended up finding about 10 watches in 45mins

I basically gave up after dying in the new patch. I dont even have any interest in starting over. Started over once, tried sneaking to a barn and got attacked by the horde. No weapon to defend myself? Ok, guess I have to keep running to stay alive. Run into more zombies? Stupid. This needs to be changed. The last patch v1.7 was fun imo. This? Threw everything way off balance. Made the zombies tougher AND you take away our defense from them? Makes sense.

I dont really know how removing the side chat is going to promote more people talking together? Just today, I installed the beta, and of course I couldn't use the side chat. Well I'm running along the coast to cherno and 2 people spot me and ask if i'm friendly in the side chat. Well, I cant very well respond at all so I sit there and I salute them and they clearly see me. So I continue up the coast and one of them runs up behind me as I take off running and kills me.. Sure they were dicks, but not being able to communicate definitely didn't help the si
