  1. Object detail does infact greatly lower the amount of grass rendered in game so can CAN affect seeing a player im not saying it makes a huge difference but it does make a difference other than that i agree lol ..
  2. From a gaming point of view i can understand this i mean it makes it fair a level playing ground lol now from a developers point of view wishing to get paid you want as many people as possible to run the game not the top 30% you want to make money you aim for the market as a whole or as close to it as possible. RV isnt an easy to run engine for many pc as it is could you imagine the backlash from people who have bought SA can barely play it and suddenly graphic options they need to run the game are removed wow thatsa public relations nightmare ( followed by refunding possible or atleast a hurt on future sales due to bad reaction. I wish we all could play on VH i do ( apart from clouds there off as they are were bugged should check if they still are actually) EDIT pay to win lol he said set to 2km if your rig better go further i have to ask how many more than 2km sniper shots have you guys made??? i could be mistaking him but i thought he ment a standard set of main options (distance what is rendered so we all have it then the better rigs can make it prettier lol could be wrong though )

    why does one blow to head knock you out?

    Now your just lying mate i tell you what put a helmut on as the balistic one in game that leaves ya face and more importantly your chin exposed and i will come round do some testing with you. Ill make you a bet ill give you a years wages if you can stay on your feet after 3 hits. I dont think you will stand after 1 shot to the chin from an upper cut. When i knock you out /down i get your years wages deal? time to nut up or shut up.... EDIT yes the motor bike helmut offers punch protection not the balistic one.

    Unarmed fighting needs to be severely nerfed

    perhaps in real life they wouldnt ya know fear of death but you start down the real life path so many things hit the wouldnt happen mark lol .... It is very easy in real life to 1 hit ko people sorry thats just a fact you let someone get a shot on ya chin hard as you may think you are your either 1 going nighty night 2 going down dazed but not fully out (hence can be punched again till you are out 3 stagering back again to be able to be punched ( ya know boxers train to not get hit or roll with the hit to lessen blows etc etc. A balistic helmut as in game doesnt stop you from being hit on the chin sorry wearing 1 wont stop you getting knocked out a bike helmut should and all the testing i have done it seems to work well against punches as it should. They dont need to nerf punching at all not one little bit lol maybe refine the process and at best add some sort of blocking animation ( which wouldnt be easy. There are plenty of records of armed assialiantes being handled disarmed by un armed people sorry it happens in real life but yes not everyone is chuck norris difference is again no real fear of death in game you just re spawn lol . Stop letting yourself in a situation where you can be punched real life armed robbers bandits etc dont usually allow some one to get right up in there face perhaps apply some real life methods to prevent this aye. AH real life vs a game its argument can be used both ways........

    Baffled!?!?!

    have you upvoted this in the bug tracker so the devs know how big of a problem it is?? most info you will recieve here in general chat will be speculation as i doubt a dev memeber will come to post on this ( could be wrong ) They do post from time to time but i havent seeen one answer a direct question like this here. Remember we here to test the game and post on the tracker...

    Excited for Shotguns!

    Ah not mention you need to be able to hit something in 2 shots vs x mount in rifle clip ( 60 for double mag) But as a medium range weapon in game if your good you can do alright ( time to practice i am bettng you will find more shotguns than high grade mil weapons the further we go lol ..

    Excited for Shotguns!

    well i hope this to the only side by side shot gun i have fired belongs to my farther ( he is in his mid 80s) and it is a standard staged trigger so if you pull hard it pretty much fires both at once ( yes techinquely there is a slight delay but you dont notice) id only attempt it 1 if your strong 2 it your target is close the old boys kicks like a mule fired this way ...
  8. Just joking here but the whole RV engine does a pretty good job of fps limiting on its own without vsync lol As suggested adjust in your cfg file make sure to set the file to read only so the game cant over right it...

    I think he may have missed you subtle joke i mean you forum name and pic i would have no idea why you would want a crossbow no idea at all lol

    Why all this "need hunting rifles not sniper rifles"?

    This is very much what i hope.. If gear is our only level so to speak in the game then it needs to be wide and varied in the amount of types merely in lower numbers to be found... Work ya but off for that nice rifle get lucky loot a guy but when i meet a group i want to see alot of different stuff all the way down to the double barrel side by side ( along the lines of what i was leading at the age of general equipment found does anyone make a side by side anymore i havent seen one in many many years and i am kinda old lol )

    Why all this "need hunting rifles not sniper rifles"?

    Id say thats pretty much what your going to be looking at this is a wooded poor area there are hunting (deer stands) dotted all over the place its going to have hunting rifles again more likely 20 /30 year old some new and even some american . the scopes being the hardest to find part i mean isnt that how it is now a mossin is easy to find the LR scope for it somewhat harder lol . Oh devildog i expect there to be american weapons in there but i am betting not to many as well its already been stated that the m4 was launched as first weapon basicly to test the whole new modular attachments system (m4 being noted for its diversity ). But this is speculation merely based on the hours and hours of interviews i have watched of rocket and weapons being a common question he is asked.
  13. Point taken add that i believe rocket wanted you to have.. Makes it more a personal stament i didnt intend to state it as his words lol ( besides that hard to say his words sometimes cause in nearly 2 years of interviews lol he has changed his mind on points a few times..

    Russian Roulette

    why should it depends if you lean to the evil side doesnt it id imagine being held up as a 2 man group by a squad of bandits and then having to endure a game of RR being quite intense click i live boom sorry little johny...

    DayZ Standalone And DayZ Mod.

    Everything thats in the standalone feature wise has been done in a way better than the mod but BUT there isnt alot of features yet at this stage early release alpha and all. So there is no doubt which will give the better Dayz experience at the end of the day but currently i play test and bug report dayz SA but i play Breaking Point arma 3 dayz mod. For now it has well alot more to it but never fear SA still has some meat on her meagre bones and in the end will be EPIC.

    Why all this "need hunting rifles not sniper rifles"?

    Diference between expensive modern hunting rifle and military sniper rifle not alot really ( expensive remembering this is a realitivly poor economic enviroment. Im not from this area so id only be making a eductated guess but id bet there would be alot more older russian/eastern rifles then there would be top of the line hunting rifles and well the loot should reflect this. But i also believe though there is always the place for high grade military weapons i am just reminded of an interview with rocket in regards to NVG and he spoke of a global economy ( as in the dayz economy ) and with control over the public hive would allow him to only let a hundred or so of these things out across the servers to be found ( no idea if he will stick to that number it was a late in the day interview and i think he was using it as an example) Id assume he would do the same with the high grade mil rifles( to what numbers no idea lol )
  17. i dont believe he has said it directly no the fact they discussed not having 3rd at one point the fact he and the dev team play 1st that there hardcore mode will be first ( and he is trying to make the game for lack of a better word hardcore. Was it matt lighfoot( sorry if i am spelling his name wrong ) that tweeted about those not playing in1st person where missing out on alot ( paraphrasing i cant be bothered finding his tweet again.) But no NO he has not directly said that ( that i recall lol )
  18. Without sounding like some elitist twat (to much like one). Welcome to Dayz how Rocket would like you to experience it! its like a completely different game lol . To those who havent tried it give it a go it may not be for you but try it for 2 days only play 1st person and when you return to 3rd i am sure you will feel something missing lol

    Incremental stances

    Please SA dec team i know you have used some assets from arma 3 please for the love of making this game great add arma3 incremental stances. That extra height you can get usefull or that slower lower stance can save your life allow to hide better etc. Its just a far better system than the plain stand crouch prone if your not goinjg to already please consider it. I doubt any one who has played arma3 or understands what i mean could be against such being implemented into SA. PS if i am wrong please state here why not forum goers....

    Incremental stances

    Yeah if they need to re do animations (different skeleton they do ) its strangely not that hard to do animations ( not easy lol but not hard for a developer) I am a pure amature i have been modding since about 2005 started in total war games making models textures and eventually went to making animations ( crude not to a pro level mind you ) but it honestly didnt take all that long to do animations harder to code in those animations assigned to the model ( yeah i know part of same job just the part i found hardest again cause i am an amature) This would be a very small barrier to a dev team even a small dev team who have a year long alpha planned.... Ah well ill just cross my fingers and hope ( something that has never helped me before with BIS games lol i always end up adding my own scripts to simulate best i can things i wished they had put in like weapon resting lol)
  21. Yeah i am hoping incremental stances from arma 3 are brought to SA as that little bit of extra height you can get to look over on things and that little bit lower when crouch still has to much exposed. Rocket please Please incremental stances from arma 3 is all i want for a late christmas gift ( well not thr only thing but i cant get greedy)
  22. I believe they have a system like what you are wanting coming just not implemented yet . Where cloths that are badly damaged ruined will loose items when you run etc. (from falling out of torn pockets. May make looting more interesting when ya start scanning the well travelled paths for lost loot...

    names of the towns and what they mean

    I just want to know why the signs only have the russian( or the language used) and the maps only have the english names for cities towns etc lol . I know the map pretty well ( not perfect but well enough lol been on chernarus a few years now) but as it is if you dont know the area it kinda makes things hard and realisticly wouldnt help anyone in real lifeeg your a tourist or a russian it wont tell you were you are have to figure it out ....

    Building variety

    A little more variety in the houses even in the lay out of furniture and cosmetic appearance of a zed apoc would be nice but maybe not the hiighest priority. They are doing more work for the north of the map hopefully time permitting these things can be shown a little more love.....
