hydra i'd give you double beans if i could just for your sig :beans: :beans:

isn't it great when a game like this can inspire someone to go buy a new computer just to be able to play it? i bought mine just for bf3. and discovered so many other great games with it.

i've always said, i don't need to be able to out-run the zombie, i just need to be able to out-run you B)

*raises hand* :(

as a side note, unless you do a lot of graphics design, you do not need the 12GB of ram. your gpu and cpu will become obsolete far before games start requiring 12 gigs of ram. so if this is something you customized, and you have the option to do so, i advise dropping that number to 8.

the 5000 visibility setting would only take effect in non-dayz servers, as its set at 500 server side so changing that setting on your client would make no difference

all the servers running lingor and takistan are on their own private hive, meaning that none of your gear or your position is synced between any of the maps or any of the other hives.

i know how you feel. i tried doing the same thing in another thread (you actually just posted beneath my post) but i finally got it to work

dude. maybe english isn't his first language. on another note, i do absolutely despise people who's first language is english, but couldn't speak it correctly if a bandit were about to steal his beans

Ok, so how about we balance it. Heroes can give themselves blood transfusions, and bandits start the game with a makarov or some other low-end weapon. people stradling the fence..... get their balls crushed, cause, you really shouldn't be sitting on the fence. it's bad for you jewels. also, if I had designed the new skin for the hero,probably would have given him one of those red cross arm band thingys

where did he say he discovered it six weeks ago? all I see is "By chance I discovered dayz EIGHT weeks ago...." This is alpha, we are the testers. a lot of the bugs are from the arma engine itself, not the mod. and, i might be wrong on this as i'm not a modder, but alpha is where they introduce features and gather feedback on them, beta is where they work out all the bugs. I will agree with you on the hacking. it seems like over half the servers i join now have a hacker on them, from teleporting to me and my pals and hatcheting us to death, while his god-mode character bleeds and bleeds endlessly from being run over then shot with an as-50 in the face, to setting all of elektro on fire. When i first started playing dayz it seemed like there were a lot fewer hackers. now i can't seem to stop seeing them.

I was chilling at the top of a crane at the docks in Cherno when I heard someone ask me what I was doing up there, told him hiding from the zeds (i was really sniping people). he started climbing up the ladder, I shot him several times with my sidearm, he didn't even start bleeding, all he said was "owe" in a very drone-ish voice, then he 1-hit me with an axe (are they that strong? i've never gone pk'ing with one before). His name at the time of the incident: Smallson Time of the incident: approximately 10:45 pm US Eastern time Server: US 2834 Hosted by: Hobo the Great | SurvivalServers.com

I remember the first time I came to the dayz website. There was this beautiful feature on it called "Average Life Expectancy:" It used to hover around 30-40 min. But now, it's over an hour. The game needs to become tougher: •Zombies need to be stronger, faster, more aware, there should be more of them, and they need more hit-points. •Food and water should be scarcer. •The effects from becoming hungry or thirsty need to be more punishing. •Fewer servers means meeting another survivor is much more likely, even in the wilderness. Cut their number in half. Empty servers shouldn't be an option. I miss the days when surviving was a challenge; when i had no idea where my next meal was coming from, or if I'd get shot on my way to find food. Right now I could find an empty server and crawl through all of Cherno collecting beans (running at times even) without aggroing a single zombie, much less getting my legs broken by one.

wow. that sounds terrible. I'm sorry you had to go through that :(

there was no "losing" a zombie back then? they followed you until you disconnected or shot them

I'm saying that there should be few enough servers that there's gonna be at least one other person on any given server I've seen a lot of new, unskilled, players able to survive several hours with all these new patches. I remember one time way back in 1.7.0.0 where I aggroed a crawler, got away, and like 1km later i looked back and he was still chasing me.

i use msi afterburner. i was using bandicam cause it compresses as it records and so the files are super small even with almost best quality. but i switched over to msi just cause i use that to overclock and i dont want a lot of programs on my computer. msi's files are much smaller than fraps but not quite as small as bandicam

lol

i went solo everywhere during the first month or so that i had this game, including the nw airfield and stary both on several occasions. i only ever got killed by n00bs camping the shore when i would spawn. and i call them n00bs cause that type of kill takes the least skill

haha, wish i had read the text just below the video earlier -_- anyway, that sucks. people like that should be banned from using any type of technology.

according to the rules for hosting a server, it -MAY NEVER BE PASSWORDED -NO LOCKING THE SERVER and - You may only kick for disruptive behavior (such as continued VOIP over side channel). But you may not kick due to race or language or because the person does something you do not like. since the admin kicked the player for "doing something [he/she] did not like" (joining a server when the admin didn't want him to), the admin is in the wrong in this situation the admin isn't allowed to lock the server or password the server

Nothing. People just used different symbols to mark the crash sites ok thanks

absolutely. dayz is much more cpu intensive than it is gpu intensive, and you're i7 is more than enough to get the job done.

what's the difference between the x's and the o's?
