A simple and effective fix for night time gamma "cheating"
beardedcap replied to alleycat's topic in General Discussion
So instead of fixing the PROBLEM: night time is too damn dark, way darker than real life. You want them to make it seriously pitch fucking black by removing moon light? You're a new breed. -
Had this happen a few times. Me and a buddy had it happen to us simultaneously and we both ended up at the same spot we were like 5 minutes ago. I always have to alt-f4 after because none of the controls or menus work

The amount of crap you can carry is insane.
beardedcap replied to Ozelot (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I think the inventory space in each item is perfect. This is coming from someone who has done multiple multi day back packing trips carrying anywhere from 25-40lbs. I suppose they could add some degrading effects from it, but I'd find it annoying. In general I only end up carrying one weapon, a decent amount of food and water, and some medical supplies. It isn't unrealistic, look up what the normal infantry would carry. -
Would you like an award?
-
Looks like shit imo. I prefer the simple one that's in the alpha actually
-
Why Noctiluxx? Because it makes fucking sense? Would you rather see military grade weapons all over rural areas?

why didnt dayz SA start off where 1.8.0.3 left off? if it aint broke, dont fix it?
beardedcap replied to piffaroni's topic in General Discussion
The mod became bloated with a lot of ridiculous crap that rocket probably didn't want in the game. It seems that the development team of the SA has spent a majority of their time with optimization and rewriting the netcode, which is good. Looking back at the Dayz mod it looks and performs like shit. The mod was turned over to the community long ago and it was always going to go a different direction than the SA. If you like the mod play the mod. The SA runs on the same engine, it's just been modified/optimized. -
Item list for items with limited to no use + Tips and Rumors
beardedcap replied to IIvIIozzie's topic in General Discussion
if you did 5 minutes of searching and reading the stickies I'm pretty sure you would be able to answer all of these questions without the useless thread. -
I don't think it's a feature(at least I hope not). Because I've noticed it happens when I've joined multiple servers in a short amount of time(maybe your character hasn't timed out of the last server you were in), not because I'm server hopping, but I'm usually trying to find a specific server that I was playing in, or I'm trying to find a daytime server. I guess all you can do right now to remedy it is wait a few minutes at least before joining a new server.
-
That's a personal issue. I, as I'm sure a lot of people do, alt tab often and multitask. Change your key bindings you ass.

Will player movement always be client sided ?
beardedcap replied to Slangy's topic in General Discussion
I fucking despise companies with data limits, I had that issue when I lived in Alaska, paid $130 a month for a 22mbps connection with a 200gb data limit. It is truly disgusting that companies do this considering the cheapness of data. About the player movement, it needs to stay client side, imagine the lag you would experience trying to move or turn if it was server side. -
This game will always be a niche, that isn't a bad thing. Not everyone wants to play a harsh difficult punishing game like this.
-
Just an FYI, it seems every time I connect to the wolf pack 24/7 daylight server my character ends up getting deleted. I just accidentally connected to them again without paying attention and my character was on the coast again. Not sure if it's coincidence or not.
-
I'm aware of that, I just didn't know there was one with rails in the game as I've seen the other 3 types many times.
-
I know, I've found a few weapon lights, I was able to attach the bipod but never the light with or without the bipod
-
I haven't figured out how to attach the flashlight to the m4, can you enlighten me? I've tried dragging it to the magpul stock, the weapon, etc. Can't find anywhere where I can attach it.
-
I agreed with you when I first switched to SA. But after playing a day or two and dying multiple times, I get better each time. Once you know where to look for food/water you should have no problem staying fed, if you are just looking around the coast and not venturing north after failing a few times you're just retarded.
-
It's happened to me every time I make it up far north and get geared out pretty well. I'll log out to go take a shit or something and go back in, sometimes in a different server and I hear the ocean while the game's loading and I know I'm fucked again. Then I get pissed so I don't have the will power to get back in and start over for a while.
-
Even if it didn't go through a vest it would fuck you up due to the sheer weight.
-
A Tranquilizer or some kind of non-lethal way to take people down would be great. Maybe it would reduce the need to KOS. You could just knock them out and handcuff them if you want, maybe take a few things and leave them. At least it's better than always losing everything and ending up on the coast again.
-
I have a somewhat similar build that I put together recently. SSD as my drive for the OS/games(Then two old 500gb HDD for other shit)Same video card, except I have the i5-3350p. Every game I've thrown at it including Arma 3 runs great. Dayz still runs mediocre but that's because of the shitty engine, for the price that's a good build. Just get 2x4GB of G.skill ram or something and you should be fine.
-
Fuck that. Imagine turning into a zombie way the hell out in the middle of nowhere and having to shamble for eternity until you are possibly killed. Think about that idea.
-
I think a lot of it is just your luck. I've gone for miles without finding food/water weapons and died of starvation. Other times I've easily found multiple M4s. Most of this will go away when they add more low end weapons, so this really isn't a problem.
-
Why is everyone so worried about killing on sight?
beardedcap replied to Mao Zedong's topic in General Discussion
This. I've came across probably 20 people by now since SA launched. Every single one of them has either lit me the fuck up(Even if I do the surrender emote), ran at me punching me just to grief/annoy, one asshole chased me for like a mile with an axe just because I didn't feel like trying to fight him with my axe. It seems like most people playing now are just pure assholes. -
-Remington 870(with magazine extension you can find) -S&W 686 .357 Magnum (Scope??) -More military surplus rifles like the Mosin Nagant I.E. Springfield 1903, Garand, etc) -Not a lot of modern military weapons, I'd rather see typical civilian rifles like the Remington 700. A Remington 760 (Pump action .30-06) would be cool to see, but It's so off the wall that I doubt it. -Not a gun, but I'd like to see flak vests -Some type of 1911 obviously (with rail)
