Moron, it's well known that the engine doesn't utilize our hardware like it should. I have a pretty quick i5-3350p and dayz runs like shit, worse than vanilla OA and much worse than Arma 3.

You kind of have to get the hang of melee in this game. It's shitty and the engine isn't designed for melee. I'm pretty sure there are ballistics involved with where the hit lands. After I got the hang of it i easily one hit zombies with it, at first I would run around swinging and not hit shit. I'm not one of those assholes that starts running around trying to kill everyone right when I find an axe like a prick though.

What? Are you retarded? .38 spc and .357 magnum. .357 isn't a cartridge, also .380 isn't rimmed, and it's a different diameter

Who cares? It's beautiful. I was hoping for a 686 but this is just as good at least. If only they'd release a damn patch sometime soon and fix the spawn

I've found about everything except: -Pristine or worn Acog sight. Only had two ever and they were both damaged-badly damaged. -Blue Press vest, seen it once on the rify and I left it because of the low capacity. However I haven't seen any again and didn't realize it was rare then or I would have grabbed it. -.357 mag pistol/ammo. I still don't believe the gun is actually spawning yet. -Never seen a walkie talkie in game -never seen the MRE, pilot helmet, cooking clock. -I FINALLY found the damn railed foregrip for the M4 once but I was killed by someone who spawned in a building with me shortly after -high powered scope is pretty rare too in my experience I'm sure there are more items in the game that I just don't know about

hah, the fucking nerd plays Magic the gathering

Go damnit, that's my spot. I've never seen evidence of anyone being there even long after a server restart. The only person I've mentioned it to was my one buddy that plays DayZ. Why have you done this!

That shit is seriously annoying as fuck. I usually just leave the game if it happens and don't play for hours.

I wouldn't mind seeing the 10/22 as it's such an insanely popular rifle. It wouldn't really be too useful until they add hunting/cooking varmints. It would have a little use as a weapon if you can't find anything else first.

I'm just a survivor, I don't go out of my way to kill or camp for kills. I will kill anyone with a weapon that seems like a threat. If they holster their weapon I will spare them. Even if they just have an axe if they are running towards me I'll drop them. I've been hit in the back by assholes with just an axe too many times

Usually I take it really well. When I was younger and a huge gamer I would get pissed at dying in games, but now I usually just *sigh* and respawn. The only time I've gotten really pissed when I died in DayZ was when my survivor that was like 3 days old died. I finally found the railed foregrip for the m4, and had all the attachments. I decided to go to the military camp by Starry (which I knew was risky and I usually avoid that place, but I scouted it out for like 10 minutes from a distance before entering it. I made sure no one was going in or out of that place and that it was clear. I went in and checked one of the camo buildings, and as I came out, I got shot in the back from the building. So I know for sure it was a server hopper or maybe someone just logged in behind me. That's the only time I really got pissed and slammed my fist down on my keyboard and almost broke the keyboard stand off.

Except Arma 3 runs 10x better than Arma 2.Now OPs points are pretty moot, because they've already chosen to stick with this shitty engine which makes everything he wants mostly impossible. I know Arma 2 had "destructible" buildings, but not really dynamic

It would be cool and I'm all for it for the novelty, But certainly not a priority.

Unfortunately, as the damage is pretty realistic. If you are not the one to take the first shots, you're pretty much fucked. Either you see the other guy first, or he spots you first and you're fucked.

There's really no point in complaining about the abundance of M4s in the game right now. There are only 3 lootable weapons in the game at this point so of course the availability of m4s are going to be high. Once there are more civilian weapons I bet you will be satisfied. As to the question, I'd like to see civilian bolt action rifles and shotguns be pretty available to most players, but have m4s and whatnot in military areas which will be a higher risk to get to when the player count goes up.

I'm sure it'll be addressed as the accuracy is undeniably off, but there's no point in releasing a patch to fix a single line of code which requires every server to be updated along with pushing it through steam. So the developers aren't going to instantly fix it,.

Finally someone who has a grasp of how guns work.

Fuck that, you've been playing too much Rust. Not everyone can play 24/7 to protect your character. This would make exploring a huge pain in the ass. Seriously, I fucking hate you because of this post.

It will probably run, but probably will get like 15 fps in cities. I'd go with an i5, you can get a 3350p for a few extra bucks and it will make a huge difference. Also for the video card you should look at a 270x or 280x. They are newer versions of he 7xxx series, but they are cheaper and have higher clock speeds. Also I personally don't like how cramped micro atx motherboards are. Unless you're going for a small case, but a mid tower will house a full sized motherboard. This is personal taste of course. You should really shell out more on RAM, it's not something you want to skimp on, I'd get 2x3gb or 2x4gb. 4GB is kind of low in this day and age, especially because Dayz will hog a lot. Get a 600w power supply at least too.

I know it's annoying to say this, but it's an Alpha. When all of the items and gear are in the gaming, it will feel like there is a lot more purpose. Eventually you'll be able to have camps, you can stockpile gear and whatnot. You'll be able to search for a lot more things that are more rare.

It doesn't need to be lowered, it will fix itself when more weapons are added. You realize that there are only 4 weapons in the game right?(Or 3, I still don't believe the .357 mag is spawning)

When I started playing the SA, I came at it with the same mind set that I did when I first played the mod, and when I started playing rust. I always start out pretty friendly, never KOS yet always be suspicious of other players. It only takes me about a day to realize that being friendly will get you fucking killed. Even if you come across a fresh spawn and decide to spare him, he'll probably come up behind you and start punching you when you turn your back. Or if you are a fresh spawn, they will come at you with an axe and chase you for eternity because they have nothing better to do. People act like fucking idiots in this game. One time I was in cherno, about an hour in on a new character and I happened to have a mosin with like 20 rounds of ammo. I ran into two guys with axes, I didn't shoot on sight, but they kept creeping closer to me, I kept aiming at them and telling them to back the fuck off. They'd back up a bit, I'd turn around to leave them I see them trying to come at me from behind, this happened a few times until I said fuck it and shot one of them in the gut, he started bleeding profusely and his buddy ran like a bitch, I thought that was enough to show them I'm not playing. Every person I've run into that has a gun has opened fire on me instantly, whether I saw them first or not. It doesn't matter if I'm completely unarmed. Also I've been playing with a buddy ,and it's too often that one of us dies and the other has to run all the way back and meet up because of people KOS. So needless to say, from now on we'll be killing anyone whose gear even looks threatening if we are able to. Edit: One day I was feeling really jaded after being killed a few times, I had an m4 in one of the towns on the east coast, maybe Berezino. I was walking towards one of the hospital buildings and I realize someone is behind me. I sprint to the building, up the stairs, and to the balcony and aim at him. He instantly puts his hands on his head and surrenders. I pause for a few seconds to contemplate, and put two in his chest. See what this game has done to me already?

I can't turn the fucking acceleration off, is it just me? I can't stand it

Wtf?
