Spidey.. I'd have a look at the Sims if I were you.

..or your money, which is what I was trying to get across but his idea goes one better. Gets my vote, it's a great idea.

Okay I have an idea and its one that has far greater implications than just combatting battle logging and could probably support and thread of it's own. It's virtual currency. Similar mechanicaly to tf2's metal if you like, that had great value if found and be useable to buy items from other players. How does this help battle logging? Simple.. if a combination or mix of commands are executed within a defined time frame prior to exiting, the game reads it as combat log and you forfeit your cash on disconnection, all of it no matter how much you have. It would make you think twice before doing it and consider your actions more carefully (I think) .. No doubt there will be plenty of robust opposition to my idea but hey, the guy wanted ideas OK.

There's also a lot of power crazed children out there in a virtual world with a gun. Similar sort of effect to mixing weed killer with sugar I'm afraid. Sadly this is the part where games with guns have largely become a victim of themselves. Power is nothing without control

Yup, and use FRAPS or xfire?

Surely an Exploited fan isn't going to blush at such stuff tho mate? :)

Does anyone have any info on where to obtain a reasonable sized map for SA please ? My boy would like one on his wall. 800-1m/2 ish.. I've seen it for like $15, any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Nice one Jfiles, haven't seen that particular top one.

Yup, creature with updated info for SA, but like you say, content still to come. You could have a plasticised one and use dry wipe pens on it to mark stuff, nice!

Thought of that, but would really like a nice coloured one and maybe coated or laminated.

Yes he's wrong. You will only say the Alpha price. The only thing that I can think may alter that is talk somewhere of a special 'collectors edition' I was reading yesterday. It's possible that you may well need to stump up further for things like exclusive packaged material, DLC may be free, who knows. But for vanilla retail release you're good for the current price. Hope it helps .

:D I bet..

Don't recall which server this particular session was on, sorry. But I can tell you I found it in a small lone House on top of a little island which has a partially sunken ship near it, if it helps. Don't ask me where I was I haven't b freakin' clue :D

Well, let me run it by you..Firstly,the devs make actually be interested on how the game runs on older Systems. It was entirely my point of posting the specs. Secondly, the reason it's so old is because 3 Years ago I went through something of a crisis in life that has prevented me having the required funds to upgrade. Next year should see a turnaround so new kit should be on the cards. That OK for you?

My son and I play one up one down in the same house on the same server on BT, no problems (for what it's worth).

We bought some bananas at ASDA on Saturday that were over ripe by today! Go figure...

Agreed, completely acceptable for an alpha. Been playing on and off for the last 2 days since I purchased and I have to say I've had way more enjoyment with this than I have with some 'finished titles' over the years. I've been around PC gaming for a while it's fair to say and can't help thinking that this engine looks kinda outdated but the sheer attention to detail and vast variation with all the different scenery and modelling, way more than make up for it. There's so much to look at and settings to tweak, feedback to give, it's an alpha with polish in my opinion. If this game looks this good now, Lord knows how good it's going to be when it's finished and I'm so glad I bought into the experience at this early stage. My 13 year old watched me playing for a couple of hours today then raced off to his room to shell out £19.99 of his 'hard harvested' Christmas money and bought in too! My sincere congratulations and admiration to the development team on what they've achieved this far. (Yeah I think it's great :thumbsup: ;) )

Nice tips, mostly common sense of course.

Yep, old CPU and running W8.1 Not had the money to upgrade the last couple of years and getting married next year, hopefully upgrading end of the summer.

I'd like to see Half Life/TF2 style spray tags implemented, just as a suggestion. It would be pretty cool to be able to 'leave your mark' to say you were there. Could also have some useful purposes too, for clans or directional information? Think of the turf wars it would start.. Anyone?

Yes mate, that's a different angle on the theme, I like that too.

Hi I really love the look and concept behind the game you're creating here. I'm a big STALKER fan and this seems like something very similar. I see there is a title called RUST in development which is similar to this? I don't know which one to buy into, can anyone give me any pros or cons to help me decide? I appreciate that this is a forum for DAYZ but getting a fair and objective view is what I need to do. Thanks a lot.
