Pretty much this. I use to play daisy mod when i would travel for work and didn't have the internet(it was a single player version of DayZ mod) the experience wasnt great but then the PvE side of DayZ mod was never great so i guess if they can make it hard to survive it might be interesting again for times with no net..

My god your not the sharpest tool in the shed are you... Log out timer is a mechanic yes?? we realize this yes ?? As a mechanic it is working as intended you log out your body stays behind for 30 seconds , thus there is NO BUG IN THIS CODE , hence it does not belong in bugtracker... Now do you believe the devs intend you to log out when you believe you may die from combat to merely log straight into another server where your not being chased or wait a few minutes for the enemy to pass by then log back in ??? That is combat logging........IN a game where they have stated they want to inspire authentic emotions interactions between players , where they have put a deterent to logging out in a battle you honestly believe they intend you to log out when faced with possible death from combat not for any other reason but to escape death from other players. You would have to be a total fucking moron to believe that was the devs intent hence it is a mechanic being used in a manner NOT INTENDED by the devs making it an EXPLOIT.... Its a minor one for sure it doesnt even rate against hacking or duping but at the end its still an exploit of a working game mechanic and had you been smart enough to know what an exploit was you wouldnt have made an ass of yourself lying about being anything at all to do with software...

LOL strange i got the definition of an exploit as it relates to a game dead on but i still wouldnt say i was any kind of an expert. You have shown a lack of understanding of the terminology and your only rebuttal has been i work as a tester meh( like your the first person to lie about being in software development on these forums). So i am glad you found that article interesting it is quite obvious which test group you fall into...

They actually did a decent job of it to(was it them or a third party who did the conversion??) . It didnt have the game editor of the pc version but i know i was surprised at how close they managed to get the console version of OFP to the pc version. OFF TOPIC i thought i had been playing there games for 8 to 10 years but it has almost been 14 years for me as i got the pc version of OFP christmas 2001. BACK ON TOPIC. i wouldnt worry to much guys as this is a pc game being converted to console rather than the reverse which is usually when you start getting simpler features and UI's designed for controller use rather than KB&M etc etc ...

LOL not a huge fan of wiki pages but they got the definition down pretty good ... You might want to read it there captain delusional https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploit_%28video_gaming%29 Damn man i hope that career works out for you because if you cant see the difference between a game mechanic being exploited and a bug and how they would relate in dealing with it ,and how it should be expressed to the developers..

The old saying is true you can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink (lol i hope you looked up the definition of a exploit as it relates to the gaming industry, might help your, um career if you actually know what the terminology means..........

AH i see the problem now your not smart enough to know what an exploit is... Definition of an exploit is the use of a bug or the use of a game mechanic in a manner NOT INTENDED BY THE DEVELOPER (some times things that have been classed as an exploit have ended as a feature of the game , combat logging is not one of those.) It would be closed on the bug tracker because it is not a bug it is a game mechanic..(same as use of the fov slider for on the fly increased magnification . not a bug but use of game mechanic in non intended manner and the use of the gamma slider at night time, not a bug to be listed on the tracker as its a mechanic being EXPLOITED.... My god do they require an IQ test when you become a software tester ( i guess not)....

I never said it was in the same league as duping (is reading my bad writing the problem or you just making stuff up because you made your self look like a tosser??). Hmm so what your saying its intentional for them to let you log out when you wish , well no shit sherlock, what is not intended is loging out during combat for the express purpose of survival . Its possible and if you need to log out due to real life it is an option to do so with possible consequences. Now the only person talking about software (which is a load of shit) is you , the thread is about everyone being able to play as they want and as such are free to combat log (which they are with possible consequences)Both duping and combat logging ARE CLASSED AS EXPLOITS! one is way more damaging than the other and yes has had more resources applied to it , but both have had work done to prevent them as combat logging is not intended behavior(thats player behaviour AS THE WHOLE THREAD HAS BEEN ABOUT PLAYER BEHAVIOUR) which is what you wrote and underlined like you knew what you were saying, not this stupid cover up garbage you try to retort with.

combat logging is an intended behaviour ?? are you for real ... Why did they bother to take time out of there busy schedule to implement the 30 second your body stays in game mechanic, if they had as you say ment you to just combat log they wouldnt have put any time limit in at all. Next you will be tellin g people they ment for players to ghost , that they implemented it that way :facepalm: Personally i couldnt give a fuck if people combat log i am not out for a kill but my god you guys talk some serious bull shit....

Interesting play style, plays a survival game and logs out to stay alive.... Brilliant strategy how about you never log back in then your character will NEVER lose any of his gear .... Have you seen the not official daisy mod its a single player version of DayZ mod might be just your speed???

They work like the maps do, you need to place them in your tool bar and select them that way... You will find that most (if not all) books are complete and can be read from cover to cover as the complete book ( i know i was amazed when i checked a few)

LOL hip fire ,the act of firing without aiming down the sights, from the hip is inaccurate? Oh wow revelation, who would have thought shooting with out aiming would be anything but dead perfect accuracy ,why on earth would people need to AIM to hit things lol... Revelation 2, people who practice at something will be better than those who do it casually... I love some of these posts , all i can say is i hope your trolling, really i do...

This ^^ enjoy freezing to death when it gets cold in your scabby torn shirt and pants .....

Been using sweetfx with the SA since dec 2013(with arma 3 since the day it came out and arma 2 since 2010) numbers of bans thus far 0. As for those answering you can do the same in the controls for your respective graphics cards , no you can not get the same effects of sweetfx via a few limted sliders. The answer from the battle eye devs (unless its changed from 1 month ago ) is YES you can use the LATEST ONLY version of sweetfx...

Sorry to hear that , today i thought i was screwed as my internet dropped as i was a passenger in a truck , i was sure i would be dead from it . Logged in standing in the middle of the road just outside stary with nothing wrong(guess its like ladders some will kill some wont , roll of the dice.

Not to mention we would kill our only hope of survival ,other people. People would be logging in to find the devs of the real zed apoc to tell them it sucks cause they cant find any lootz....

Yeah hopefully someone does that testing as like you it is my default movement in and around towns/cities now. I find stealth works great i had a zombie walk 3 feet to the side of me while i was crouched hiding in a berry bush picking berries( i was shitting bricks , fresh spawn ready to hit C to stand up and run if it noticed me.)

edit: 2:42 Good info there but i am not sure why you spoon fed it to him when he even stated if it was true he still wouldnt walk for long. As they say you can lead a horse to water but you cant make it drink ( or in this case you can have them buy a survival game but you cant make them play it in a way that helps them survive..) It is a shame no mention of crouch moving , I would imagine it would/should burn alot of energy its pretty hard going doing crouch movement in real life(or maybe i am just getting old LOL)

LOL nothing elitist about it at all , you suggested dayz take a note out of the server rules of H1Z1 so that must mean your playing it yes?? i have ,didnt much like it . Your whole post was a childish stamping the ground going i know you are making the game this way BUT I WANT IT THIS WAY LISTEN TO MEEEEEEEEEEEE..... Suddenly you decide to be reasonable and you think that gives you the right to call someone elitist for answering with all the respect your self entitled ,passive aggressive , whinny post deserved... I find bitchy i want the game this way, my way rather than the clearly marked out direction of the game from the start offensive, Mr making the game for 12 people the devs should listen to us....

Salting and making into jerky would probably be the best you could do to preserve the meat (thats assuming they are going to bring food degradation )

Well ill be damned lol cheers thats much better putting stuff in the pot..... EDIT my second pot so fear not there out there

I found a cooking pot in .55. As for the size i dont think it should be made smaller as well pots are pretty big but maybe make it a container so i can put stuff in it like i would in real life. PS i found it in the kitchen of a apartment in novo ..

Im pretty sure its planned at some point to put inventory on some zeds/infected

Many people do think that is a cool idea but it wont make it into Dayz SA (although someone might mod it in after the full release of the game) . Why wont it be put in well what little back story we know is this , They are not undead zeds they are alive people infected with a rage like virus (the Z in DayZ actually stands for zero as in day zero the start of etc etc). Players are immune to the virus, hence why we are not running around chewing on peoples legs ( well some are as cannibals now) the infected are only able to (or will be not sure if they do yet ) pass diseases onto to players and also give infected wounds etc..

Do you guys have clan tags in your names?? i find those can scare people away , when they join and half the people on server have a clan tag. The private shard i play on the devs are in a clan and they actually make announcements of where there clan is to 1) for those wanting to avoid a well armed group can stay away 2) those interested in trying to tangle with a clan have a general idea where they are ,they make sighting near so and so town announcements)
