Some said M4 attachments, you say SKS. I got this memory leak bug, and didn't have either SKS or M4....

Alpher?! It'll change. Been said before.

I've had the bug. Bug, I don't have an M4 on the character I played when the memory leak/frame drop happened. I checked my inventory and nothing was flickering. The only thing I noticed is that the 40 round 5.56 mag was now sand instead of black.(didn't paint it)

Svetloyarsk. North East corner. I used to call it Guba before it became a town. The bay is called Guba, and there used to be nothing there back in the mod days. (except for the PBX spawn) Now the big town of Svetloyarsk is there with unique buildings too. Edit : adding screenshot of "before" Svetloyarsk... ^_^ And after... One of the two new buildings. The police station. There's a medical clinic also. Go take a look.

I would love to have Namalsk in the stand alone. (without the bloodsuckers and anomaly though, since they're from Stalker...)

There's some major memory leak since the patch. I ran everything on high, and textures on very high with 200% res and had between min 30 fps and 60 fps. Now after 5 mins it's start to drop and then it freezes/stop responding. Hope it gets fixed soon!

KoS might become most players' style, but it'll never be my style. I enjoy my style of play and won't change it. I understand what you mean, but in reality I have to admit that the KoS "problem" will always be there. Just the fact that it ruins the items might discourage players to do it, but they mostly don't need your stuff and do it for fun because they like killing players...

I've been playing mostly on Katastrophe/Katabasis' hardcore server and met a lot of friendly players. That said, there are groups there that are hostile. But I have to say that I had a much better experience n hardcore servers. (even during the experimental test, I use the hardcore servers and had a great experience) Firefights are much more enjoyable also! B)

Haven't posted many lately so I'm uploading a big batch. Enjoy! (the resolution looks better when uploading on different sites. postimage.org seem to compress them much... :( sorry for bad quality) Nice little camp site.

Hardcore hive character. Color scheme blends well in the forest and is not too much military like. I really like that they kept the old DayZ mod bandages too.

I want one too!! I really hope they implement them in the future! :lol:

This never happened to me since I got the stand alone when it came out. It happened to my friend and others. Basically just be careful when joining a server, check the server provider as different hives hold different information. I play on Vilayer servers for my regular hive character and I have an hardcore character on a private server. (still, the public hardcore hive) You might've died too since the 30sec logout has been implemented.

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing!! I found a similar place but without the tents. I dunno if it was in the mod, but I never seen it before. I really hope they implement the camp fires soon!

Exploring this place at night with only a flash light (rifle or pistol torch too, but you feel safer...) is very creepy. I love this place. I have died once from my character just walking over a ledge even when I wasn't pressing w (or triggered any animations like taking a rifle in hands or vaulting), fell from one of the escape boat on my belly and didn't feel a thing, fell from one side into the ocean and finally was looking throught one of the windows in one of the bunk beds cabins and was suddenly teleported outside the ship at the same height, fell to the ground and broke my leg.... Witnessed a player ( he claimed to be a traveling t-shirt salesman and wasn't wearing any pants) fell from the stairs exactly where I died. At that time I laughed but now that I think about , this ship is really cursed!! (bugged/glitched for sure :lol: ) Still, I like this place a lot.

:D Thanks for sharing!!

It's up to you. It depends on the ammount your magazine can carry also. But for me, I carry max 3 mags, 1 in the M4 and 2 extras. (all 60 round coupled mags). If you talk about the FNX45, then it's up to you since they're all 15 rounds each and take only 1 space.

Just sharing some more of my "classic" DayZ mod hero skin lookalike.

Really like it! :thumbsup: Deaths, Bandit kills, Survivors helped, etc. :thumbsup: :beans: Awesome mate!

I would like to see that too. But let's not forget that the zombies in Biohazard/Resident Evil were infected by the T or G virus. Those zombies were dead people coming back to "life" as zombies to spread the infection. It seems the zombies in DayZ are "infected people" running around like rabid animals. Edit. : Hmm. After some more research, I found out from the DayZ mod and SA wiki that the zombies in DayZ are called zombies. By it's definition, a zombie is an undead creature. So logic would imply that whoever said that the zombies in DayZ are just living people infected by some virus ( I really hope it's not Dean himself that said that...) is either wrong, or we need to call those infected humans differently. Like "infected" or something. (ironic/sarcastic edit) Let's not forget that most of the zombie lore did not come from cinema, and most cultures on this planet had it's own version of the zombie. Before Night of the Living Dead there was The Epic of Gilgamesh...

Honestly I've been playing DayZ since it came out, and I still play the mod. (Taviana, Namalsk, Epoch, Chernaurus origin, etc) and I been KoS, robbed and what not multiple times. It made me cautious, but it didn't corrupt me as to treat DayZ as any other FPS/TPS out there... I had more civilized encounters in the SA than in the Mod though.

:D Same thing crossed my mind while trying to read that... Blonde mustached Tom Delonge wtf

DayZ is a survival game. The part you "missed" is that it's a game. (not finished, in alpha, early stage of development, but still, a video game.) DayZ is a survival zombie apocalypse online game.

Most enjoyable DayZ story so far for me. Thanks for sharing. Absolutely fantastic!

Thanks for sharing! Although the improvised backpack was already in the stable build. I have mine since the 25th of January. (the courier bag now has a different texture in the experimental branch)

If it doesn't concern you, move along. Don't listen. Don't read. Don't care. Good tips for new players OP.
