Gotta love the Sheriff, and already a legend in his own lunchtime. I really hope to tag along some day.

I got the same error message (recollection) as the poster by running the wins XP command line switch. Went away as soon as I removed it.

I see lots of mouse threads but never dropped in on one till now, it'll be the last one too, Cyborg RAT5 ftw. Wtf is supposed to be wrong?? This isn't Quake. I'll get my coat..

No probs doing the same thing for us, on BT.

Definitely the building sites.

:D Yeah they come and pick you up from your house, run you to your GP, then bring you back home get you some tea and biscuits and plump a cushion up for you before sitting you comfortably back at you computer. Damn nice people. Lol, sorry I couldn't resist it :D

Well I've learned something, I thought the no message received' message was due to connection problems to the server. I didn't realise it was because the server was restarting.

I can think of a football field, a quarry and always bus crash (not plane though) already in the map. They can't in too mad with stuff it would be unrealistic to the region. This map generally depicts quite a modest to slightly deprived area so I don't think higher value recreation would be that plentiful .

It's a classic trap. Normally a PC is the bait.

Yes I like the idea. Similar to the weapon degradation and jamming in STALKER, although you don't have the option to clean the weapon it stalker. Could be a nice addition although I think only going to appeal to the realists.

How do you know you'd be catching a server hopper and not someone spawning into the game minding their business? I do like the idea of Bear traps though ;)

Lol, yup.. Single player mode: You're naked, hungry and thirsty>find food>find drink>find bandages>You've been hit by a zombie, bandage yourself>go to x and find an x>now go to x and find an x, go to an island and find x, this one's broken, go back to x>now go to x and find blah blah blah... The end.

:D Basics, anyone?

Pm sent ;)

Mine does that but mouseclick as creature advised works for me. Kinda like it that way tbh.

Damn nice skin..

Wait! You say this is Alpha?!

The folks up north would love to see your stuff..

I understand completely thanks, and the facts remain. Like I said The way it's MEANT to be played.

Sounds to me like you got sniped or maybe hit by a zombie (or maybe hacked).. Anyways, it's an Alpha mate, bear with it, things are far from perfect atm. If you cant wait there's always COD.

I'm with you Bonkhead.. I'm all for realism and have considered the 'having to relieve yourself' thing myself, it makes perfect sense in a realism simulator. Unfortunately I don't see it being implemented because of the target audience's instability with the subject matter. I do agree though it could be simply handled with a text line and a non graphic animation. I support your idea but don't hold your breath (or your nose).. By the way, snipers generally wiz where they lay, for days at a stretch sometimes ;) Wasn't 'Everybody poops' a song by R.E.M?

The fact is this, but console fans don't really want to hear it.. This game is built with and built for the PC first and foremost. Maybe, BIG maybe a console port is possible way off in the future, but as BigMike has said 2-3 years is a likely time frame and as ShadyFizzle and Ratiasu have said the optimization would need to be huge. If money is a factor and for most of us it is, you have to decide which camp you're in. I've always been a PC gamer, why because aside from a few exclusive titles such as Gran Tourismo 6 which I would dearly love to play on PC, I know it's not happening and I have to go with where I'm going to get the most bang for my buck. And without wanting to insight a PC v console debate, which is very tedious and boring, the fact remains; The PC is the best and most versatile gaming machine your money will buy and you can get yourself a decent rig together for around the same price as your latest 'next gen' console with all the whistles and bells and a few discs. Don't even think about a gaming laptop being the cost effective halfway house solution, it isn't. Gaming laptops such as the Alienware's, Samsung's, MSI's etc are vastly more expensive than the desktop and have their limitations. If you want to play Dayz 'The way it's meant to be played' ;) then sell the console and the games, dig a little deeper in the piggy bank and buy a PC. For me Dayz is one of the best titles ever, and I've been gaming since the Atari (?) Anyone? It's worth the investment to play a game that's going to become a classic, or you could carry on playing COD, I know what I'd do..

Some good ideas here, they get my support. Why does your character look wider (chunky) than usual? Or is it just me?

Lol,that was pretty funny ;)

You'll get the mic icon appear if you push caps lock, whatever. Because the PTT bind is to that key. Check your audio properties to make sure everything's as it should be. I run 2 different microphones, one on and headset and one on and webcam. The game has a tendency to seize control of the output sound device on my machine.
