I am having the same issue at the moment. Will try and see if there isn't a faster way to fix this. EDIT: Yup figured a much faster way. 1. Change your beta setting back to "NONE" 2. Restart Steam 3. Verify that DayZ now says "DayZ" and not "DayZ [experimental]" 4. If you attempt to start at this point the game errored out saying "Corrupted game files detected" 5. Right-Click > Properties > Local Files > Verify Integrity of Game Cache 6. This will bring up a loading bar and should re acquire some files. 7. Start the game!

I've had one bad encounter but 2 good ones. My first encounter was the bad one, kind of thought all the chumps had returned. I was minding my own business as a guy with a hammer came up and smacked me with it. I ran off and lost him. My next two encounters were much better. I met a group of 2 guys that were chatting together. I hid in a bush until one of them got too close and said hi over chat. He mistook me for his friend for a bit and we chatted about our experience so far and went our separate ways. My last encounter was good but unfortunate. I was up at NW and had just ate my last can of beans. I was getting more and more hungry. I was fully geared up, had a mosir with a scope I had found, a smaller pack with lots of med gear, survival stuff, and water. Then I had just found a .45 pistol, a mag, and some ammo (you need all 3 now!). Then a guy comes running in, I pulled my mosir out cause I didn't know who it was. I scared him a bit but told him I was friendly. He was asking me how to use his pistol and I told him about having to combine ammo with a mag then the mag with the gun. Then I realized I needed food, and just as he dropped some for me I pass out from starvation. For good :(

So glad Backpacks got mostly fixed in this update! Also so glad not to see any stupid artifacts Thanks Rocket, I can officially play this again.

There is no doubt this game is demanding. With everything at max, even my GTX 670 struggles staying above 30 in spots. Your mouse lag comes from this game harnessing a crap load of prerendered frames. You can minimize the effect by turning your "Mouse Smoothing" all the way low. You can find the setting under controls. I am curious how you got this game to run at all on your machine. My average RAM usage while playing is about 3.4GB and my old laptops 2.8GHz Core 2 Duo would constantly max out and cause stuttering. Plus the GT 240m graphics it had with 1GB of ram would only get me around 20-25fps with everything on very low. How ever I did play the game with a second monitor that was 1680x1050.

I can also confirm that 1.7.2.5 DOES NOT fix the artifacting. There are 2 sources that it stems from on my screen: ~Dead soldier bodies ~Wire FencingTypically I can fix this by pressing Shift + [num -] and typing "flush" This will clear the screen and usually clear all the soldier bodies eliminating the problem. Occasionally you have to use this command multiple times to fix the issue. The problem seems to be less severe at lower graphics settings, turning objects to very low and textures to very low can sometimes fix the problem. Here is a list of my hardware and the settings I play on usually. Most of the time I will get artifacts for almost every city I visit. The only times I dont get artifacts are when the military bodies are glitched and invisible. (you can only see the shadows on the ground.) Windows 7 Pro x64 Asus P8Z77 WS motherboard Intel Core i5 3570k 16GB 2133MHz RAM (2x 8GB DIMMs) Gigabyte GTX 670 Windforce x3 2x 2TB HDDs RAID 0 Manual install of DayZ on the Steam version of Arma. I run the game with everything on "Very High" although I will usually reduce Object detail and textures to "Very low" if I see artifacts. Most other settings including AA and others dont seem to make a difference. I also have Vertical Sync turned on.

I actually kind of like this bug. Prevents you stupid disconnecting night crawlers from ruining the game.

I'd certainly agree with hatchet being the most common. IMO the SVD Camo seems to be the rarest. Well really if you look at the numbers, all of the rare chopper weapons have the same spawn chance I think. (AS50, SVD, M107, L85A2, ect.)

Server: US 1831 Time: 8/10/12 1:20 AM PST (UTC -7) Player in question: Snipedasniper What Happened: Was running up north near Vybor. Suddenly a player spawned ~100m in front of me. Then an ATV spawned right next to him. I ran over and shot the guy. In the context menu it gave me the option to take an RPG18 from his body. The weapon would not show in his inventory. I have Screenshot proof of both the context menu with the RPG18 and a Screenshot confirming the player name.

Apparently not paradox, if this was in the forum database this thread would have been deleted long ago. If you think it should be merged with another forum post, then give a link :)

Just thought I would bump this, as it would be a very helpful feature. I'm starting to get tired of carrying 3 sets of morphine now.

I wouldn't recommend going dual core with this game. While the GTX 560 graphics will give you smooth FPS, you will get hangs and hitches from running the CPU at 100%. This game is RIDICULOUSLY CPU intensive. I just put together a $1500 rig based on the 3570k and I typically sit around 60% usage. The laptop my new rig replaced was a 2.8GHz Dual core that would constantly hiccup and freeze. If your budget is that low, I would recommend either really skimping on the monitor, or waiting till you have a bit more. Especially because in a year from now, your rigs not really going to play much at all. I'll play around on newegg and see if I cant put something together though.

I support this idea. BTW, military weapons are not uncommon to find in civilian hands. There is a gun store down the street from me that has a Barrett .50 on display, as well as an M60, and several different AR15s and MP5s. I even have a friend that owns a $7000 M6 with the 7.62mm barrel, 3x mag into holographic sight, and a muzzle break. There are several weapons that i really want to see in this game.

I actually really support this idea. While not being the most realistic, it does make sense and it fixes the reason why broken legs are game ending for most players. Basically, when you break your leg, you first need to make a splint, considering you can use almost any item for this, you shouldn't need to pick up anything to make the splint. All you need is like a 30 second or 1 minute animation. Then once your leg is psplinted you can get up and move around, but your movement is hampered and you have a good chance of falling or passing out. Then the morphine would be used to fix the labored movement and stop you from falling over.

Ok, I have been using the GPS in DayZ for a bit now. It does an ok job but I really want to make it better and more useful. With most GPS systems you can make waypoints, and you can zoom in and out ect. It would be really cool if you could implement some of these into the game.

I know what you mean. I can be out running around in the night while its pooring and be at nearly full temp a lot of times. Then randomly it will drop out of no where. I think weather should have a larger effect, but also be much more gradual. Really though, antibiotics need to be more common as well if this is to be messed with.
