TBH, this isn't going to be the game for you. The low spawn rate for guns now is still probably higher than it's going to be at release. Once Bows & Arrows are in it is Rockets stated aim to 'reduce' military gun spawns, at least, even further. As to those who are saying this will only encourage server hopping: you're probably right, in the short term. There are plans afoot by the dev team to address that. The main one being that they will be able to restrict item numbers across ALL servers. Server hopping will not get you much if there are no more items of a type available. And you won't know which are and aren't available at any one time. So if you find a gun in non-pristine repair, you better take it. It might be the only one you'll get close enough to see. Not to mention the fact that once you have one, can you risk using it and losing it! A shotty: maybe. A Mosin: No. That's only for church on Sunday! Loot respawn is on the todo list, and will be implemented once the technical BS is all sorted. Using its lack ATM as a justification for anything is a red herring. We're just going to have to wait for that. Last point: The first word on DayZgame.com (after Feedback), is SURVIVORS. You don't necessarily need a gun to survive.

Yep. Sorry 'bout that. It appears the player base has indeed broken this game.

Stay away from the shotgun(s), here is why.

Shots to Kill: head: 1 <--- Get closer, else you're just doing it wrong! And 'It's a f'king shotgun. What did you expect!'. -
On behalf of all the players of DayZ, I would like to personally offer a heartfelt appology for ruining the game. It won't happen again (the appology, I mean!). Sorry.

I know it's Alpha but I'm gonna moan anyway thread
djporternz replied to Jonah_Hobbes's topic in General Discussion
I know its an Alpha but... ...having an awesome time already. Sorry, too busy playing to bitch and whine here! -
I think you need to look a little further south... Try BOLLOCKS!

No it's not one of those 'Nighttime' threads.... When the last patch hit, I decided to reset the Video settings to default and redo my tweaks to get better FPS to see if there was any change. (If you're interested, my results don't show anything significant either way.) One thing I did notice was that nighttime on the default gamma/brightness seems to be an order of magnitude brighter. Is this just me, or have any of you noticed this? MOD: Sorry, this should properly be in General not New Player. Move when you can. Thanks.

Post-patch cars seem to be completely nerfed. Haven't found a single item in cars in Berez or Stary and Novi Sobor. I'll keep looking tho.

I'd assume not. Patches would be definate no. Modifications based on the .dll injectors will also be problematic. Both VAC and BE can (and should) detect these and you'd be saying goodbye to your game if not Steam account. Not an issue ATM as there is no DayZ patch/mod listed. Stay clear, is my advice.

Help for DayZ Specific terrain/model developers *please take time to read*
djporternz replied to daringd's topic in Technology/Programming
As Atomizer stated, modding is confirmed. Apart from that, we'll just have to wait until we get closer to release and beyond to see just how much freedom we will be given to modify DayZ. I'm hoping for something on the order of the freedoms granted with ArmA2/3, but it will probably be considerably less i.e. expect the best, prepare for the worst. Until then, just be happy that we can access the .pbo files and take a peek under the hood, and imagine the future possibilities. -
Do you Think DayZ Should Port to Console?
djporternz replied to bebopspeedy's topic in General Discussion
Yes, what we need is a modular console where each major block - CPU / GPU / etc. - can be upgraded as technology advances... Wait! Wouldn't that just be a PC with graphics limited to 1080p. (Okay I'll let you expand to 4k, but that doesn't change much!). -
meet Alex - funniest dayz video i've seen yet..
djporternz replied to irl-calibre's topic in Gallery
ROFL Hilarious!! -
Shodowplay IFF nVidia and a 6xx or 7xx gen card. Bandicam if not or if you have a 4xx or 5xx gen nVidia card.
-
Absolutely! Let's do it... Right after

I searched multiple towns for three hours...
djporternz replied to Grumbuck's topic in General Discussion
Look for Zombies. They know where the pristine loot is. Never fails. -
+10 for the title. Unfortunately the body of the post sounds like a personal problem, and I don't do personal problems.
-
Ohhh... I like it. A trick question! Hmmm... IDK. Let's ask the guy who can spell facetious!
-
Strangely... I believe you... No wait that was just gas!
-
Known issue. Hundreds of posts in the last little while. Probably just missed them as they're still on the first page. You wouldn't even need to search for them. Yes. Sorry. Would you be so kind.
-
Feedback tracker is the place. But going by the bitching and whining around here I'm thinking it's probably a known issue already.
-
I give up! This is too meta for me.
-
I'm sure you're trying to tell me something... give me a minute... I'm sure I'll figure it out. To OP: Do you have clouds turned off. I've found after the latest patch, with clouds on that night is more than playable at default gamma/brightness.
-
Ping setting is just for the filter. It doesn't change the server search tho, just the display part.
-
Sorry to see you go. I hope your next game is everything you deserve.

The lack off loot is not right ???
djporternz replied to africanhungergames's topic in General Discussion
"DayZs got 99 problems, but the loot ain't one." Sorry, I got that tune running through my head while reading your post. For that alone, you get some beans.
