BIS has never done anything like that in the past so i wouldnt think they would do it now ( that looks more like the free to play model of H1Z1 style game.) but they do make expansions for there games but rest assured IF they make an expansion for Dayz it will be a BIG expansion worth the money to buy i would guess from there past record and me having played there games for a more than 8 years(shit probably closer to 10 years)

Oh i get your american where gun control is an oxymoron.... still doesnt seem funny though but meh what do i know..(ps i am actually jealous with your laws as in australia gun laws are super tight there are many guns id like to add to my collection but are just not legal here..)

A trench coat would be cool, some fingerless gloves and seeing we have fancy dress shoes in game some cloths to match ,id laugh seeing someone battling the zeds in a nice dinner jacket or even a tuxedo...

You sure he is joking?? there is nothing indicating a joke ( like it actually being funny ) Its actually a fairly common belief( or excuse used for shooting people there gun there cloths. But hey ill bow to your determining of jokes i mean anyone who can throw out a tired racist joke must know whats funny and when someone is joking right???

HUH?? you know a gun that is designed for shooting people would also be pretty good for shooting zombies right?? Now currently the zombies arent all that hard but i am hoping they get to the point were sneaking will be your only option then blasting a way through when things go wrong.. A gun doesnt make someone a bandit ( hey say your playing a hero and you find a m4 and attachments you going to leave it behind why?? the cloths dont make someone a bandit ( the use of masks is debatable ) what a character does makes you a bandit.... Most you guys use any excuse to start blasting truth is most of you ARE BANDITS...

I dont think melee has been changed in the new experimental patch so i am not sure they are hotfixing melee. But meh could be wrong but havent heard about any incoming fixes other than what was mentioned about turning on the persistance ..

lets be honest here 75% of the players will shoot you what ever cloths your wearing what ever gun or melee your carrying or even if you dont have anything lol.most of those will go yeah got another bandit.. Dont want to get shot dont be seen want to still have interaction stalk a player and when you got them dead to rights then say hello and go from there if you think there trust worthy friendly etc ( if they run shoot them if they try turn around before some trust is had shoot them if they dont talk or there is long breaks in the talking shoot them , if they are moving in slight bits here and there in any given direction shoot them ,) i am no hero but i am not a KOSer or bandit either if i feel there some trust to be built ill trade or offer help or shoot the breeze but most guys just try to get the jump on ya so atleast 60% of my interaction ends in me shooting them lol.

When i am unconcious i generally go for a toilet break have a smoke make a coffee or a really stiff drink , to be honest there is very very few times i have ever woken up from it. I did have to laugh once coming in from a smoke to hear some drip trying to torture me in a very sexual manner and was pissed i wasnt responding i just shut the audio off and waited for him to eventually kill me ( didnt take long). Some you guys have some serious issues while playing this game not sure how telling guys yeah i got you mother f@#$#% now suck it etc etc is entertaining game play lol each to there own i guess... Dont really care if they allow respawn when out cold or only when dead doesnt really affect me or how i play ( but i can see those that do want a removal of it seem to be of the mind of a griefer that likes to play out some twisted rp fantasy why else are they worried if someone is dead or just out cause when i shoot someone i shoot them again in the head to make sure there dead i dont need to strip them naked cuff them break there legs etc etc i am not an asshole...

Hey there has been nothing wrong with your reasoning in regards to the game being driven by player interaction it is indeed a major part of the game.. My question what the hell has that got to do with how the movement works. BIS has always in its FPS games attempted to add a level of realistic movement to the titles ( is it realistic no but it simulates it better than arcade shooters. Games like CS UT COD BF Halo etc etc do not attempt any realisim to there movement there aim is really smooth controls for a great PvP experience it is the aim of there games. Now titles like Arma Dayz and red orchestra they do it a little different they try to limit the player movement in a way that is more like real movement is limited , is it currently a little to clunky yes it is will they smooth animation transitions etc i am hoping so ( arma 3 is about the level of movement i would like them to get to lol. But it is never going to feel move like CS UT or any other game of that ilk because that is NOT THE DIRECTION THEY FOLLOW and that is an absolute for you. This shit reminds me of the shit storm on the red orchestra forums with all the complaints there and it was the same old shit i cant super fast side strafe in and out like i can in COD BF etc its hurting my play style well hello its not ment to play into that play style. So for the TLDR will they smooth the movement out yes will it ever feel like other FPS games that dont fall into the mil sim style nope and you will be waiting a LONG LONG time if your hoping it will..

I say bloody death to the evil pigs in this bloody game LOL. I was making my way through the trees about to break out into a clearing that lead into ( insert un spellable name here) and i see this pig come flying past me through the trees. I thought thats wierd , i didnt see the 5 zeds that were chasing it that now rushed at me from behind while i stood watching the pig run off. I gotten beaten badly barely lived and had to toss my 357 away as it got ruined in my hands while i was shooting( a first never had an equiped gun get ruined one in my inventory sure. So i say the pigs are evil and must die , the fact they taste good is just a bonus...

yeah got to say i did find it quite impressive what a small indie team are doing with that game. As for what i would barricade hmmm that small country inn building looks quite nice not sure if there is one further west as the only 1 i have checked out thus far is not to far south of novo so that be to hot but if there is one in the deep west it might be worth a try...

Nah your advice is still valid the things that make the stand alone hard on the cpu are pretty much the same as they were for the mod( i have no experience with the 6300 series cpu when i built my wifes rig i put fx 8350 in it and a evga gtx770 sc that handles dayz very nicely but then i over clocked the cpu to 5 ghz and i personally run i7's...

I love fishing and it is a very viable food source for when canned food becomes alot rarer. keep your axe to cut ashwood when you want to fish, every now and then when you find a garden hoe or shovel collect a few worms toss the shovel away. Wear a boonie hat to put your fishing hook on , so really all you need to carry is rope because the axe your already going to carry for you melee and the stick you throw away when done fishing. But wait how can i pvp if i am off fishing in some small lake that sucks etc etc hello survival game try it you might like it lol..

He is not doing rapid side straffing not even close he is using angles leans and stepping off one foot by all means if they can make the engine replicate this god yes put it in. But for your Doom arcade style side straffing ya can jam that it doesnt belong in this sort of game. If they put it in i hope they add a chaingun then ill just do what i did in Doom and thats strafe while firing like crazy worked great in a arcade game

Please pick up a gun aim it then try side stepping as fast as you can out then back in behind a wall and tell me how smooth and natural it feels in real life.... There is a reason soliders lean around corners to shoot because it doesnt have you off balance it gives you a steady position to fire from where you might actually hit something without a spray and prey mentality. People say they dont want arcade handling but this is what they want sorry that IS arcade handling....

Could the handling be made smoother the animation transitions hell yeah and i am betting they will get there but it will never feel like CS or UT. They will tweak and smooth out the system they have thats all i am saying not adopt a completely different handling model.

Twitch shooter ,tournement shooter vs what is ment to be a survival game that has mil sim back ground they have different handling as they are very VERY different kinds of game. Hey its cool you want to play PvP death match nothing wrong with that but your going to have to do it while getting use to the control systems used in RV engine games. Has the feel changed from arma yeah it has but it isnt light years away from it as the feel of CS and UT are these are things your going to have to deal with. Do i go on the CS forums and go we needed way bigger maps like over 200km2 becuase thats what Dayz arma has ?? NO because that would be retarded there different sorts of games trying to portray very different experiences. But trying to point this out to you 2 is pointless ( i know rick is a troll lol and i love him for it ) We all play the games we enjoy but if you think the devs should change there game to make it more like another very different sort of game then there is some serious failing in logic and in what the devs would and wouldnt be willing to do. As rick pointed out we can enjoy all sorts of different games shit i still play bloody halo very different experience very different feel to the game but when we get to the point were we want all these games ( even when there direction and intent is very different ) to have the same handling model then the cheese has slipped off your cracker...

Thank you mr 20 years pro experience at FPS shooters i own CS and back in the day owned UT i am bloody 41 i have more than 20 years playing FPS games nope not to your astounding level maybe but yeah pull ya head out ya butt.. He said they were better games and to some people they very well maybe ( i enjoyed the shit out of both ) but if you believe them to be better why are you playing an inferior game??? Doesnt make sense you play what you like the most and with 1200 hours its seems obvious what he likes playing. Sand in panties it seems a serious problem on these forums specially in you experts... Logic is seems a lost art the art of talking shit seems the wave of the future..

On 95% of games id agree with you on a game running on a RV engine id very much disagree with you and the fact he is running a gtx 770 and getting such shit FPS kinda proves it . RV games are very cpu heavy and worse yet not well multi threaded lol so it really rides heavily on single core performance thus making intell a better choice for running them ( i prey one day they will improve multicore support)

Oh dear god NO if i want to play counter strike guess what ill play counter strike.. I dont have as many hours as grimey rick in the game a mere 450 hours logged but i have played OFP arma , arma 2 , arma 3 for good knows how long. Rick i find it strange you rag on the game so hard and yet have played 1200 hours of it ?? Honestly if you think CS or UT are better games why arent you playing them ??? Thank god the devs dont listen to 95% of this community cause the game would be a cluster fuck if they did....

Havent you guys learned by now when logging out you have to sacrifice a virgin on a stone alter in the name of the dark lord dean rocket hall.... But seriously yeah try sticking with official named servers, rather than billy bobs awesome pvp server ( unless its one you have played on for a long time as i play on hell in a handbasket australian servers when playing stable but these i know are being profesionally run and configured to properly connect with the hive.. Sorry to hear about your loss though...

Hit boxes need some work yes zombies attacks need some work yes the basic mechanics of melee are not to bad but if they improve them further great if they dont but they sort hit boxes still good..

Hmmm i wonder if the devs or forum mods have crystal balls because thats what they will need to give you your answer. In short as good as they can get it figuring in the HUGE range of hardware that people run playing it...

LOL i dont think you understand the terminology a bambi IS A FRESHSPAWN. They got this name during the mod because there was no melee punching so a freshspawn was helpless and easy to kill for a geared played, just like killing a baby dear hence the name BAMBI. I give guns to fresh spawns all the time. I find it can be a good test if i give them a single chambered pistol in there haste they think its fully loaded and if there of the mind they will shoot and you can usually survive a single shot ( doesnt always work has bitten me in the arse a few times lol)

You can run arma 2 at max settings but struggle with dayz at lowest settings in the city?? Strange very strange seeing they are ( currently ) on a very similiar engine... Even stranger you say you can run Rome2 on max settings a loaded 32 bit game that struggles for resources at the extreme setting ( which is highest including ultra sized units) i would clearly say any rig that can run extreme settings on R2 with 40000 men on screen in a siege battle would do quite easily with dayz ( or do you actually mean you play sort of high settings with lower men per army counts and avoid sieges like the plague because it turns into a slide show for you because unless your doing 40 k men in siege at extreme settings you are not maxing the settings( i get 25 fps in this situation.)
