Ugly (DayZ)

quick quesiton- weren't the 64 bit servers announced before this announcement?

cmon roy.... for shame. Just not you, man.

I heard him, but I dont necessarily believe him. Those are exactly the things I would have expected ANY OTHER COMPANY EXECUTIVE to say. That is standard fair. To be honest he did NOTHING to assuage my fears that we will get a watered down product. What he said on stage was absolute lip service, corporate speak. I can hold out hope, however. edit for grammer

Pessimist: A dumbed-down version of DayZ gets developed, with gameplay focusing more on the casual, easy-to-grasp mechanics of your standard console fare. Development is pushed back as developers decide which features to include or to axe, based on publisher feedback. The game feels a lot more "arcade"-ee than the currect ArmA "simulator". Money shop. Optimist: Bohemia Int now have access to a lot more funding, creating the PC-centric, hardcore-simulator feel that all 1 million people who pre-ordered on Steam were expecting. Because it must eventually reach a mass market, things like sloggy frame rates, sluggish controls, and bug-riddled gameplay are fleshed out, and the whole game feels better for it. It runs smooth, everything is optimized, there are no,- and I mean NO- features left out of the PC version simply because of the difficulty to implement them onto a console. If there are absolutely NO, and I mean ZERO concessions made to the PC version of this great alpha I have been enjoying so far, and final release isn't pushed back TOO far, then I am 100% ok with this, and I wish BI all the best, and cannot await a final release. Diablo 3 was revised half way through production to eventually be released on console. Not a good precedent.

DLC Beards.

new account same avatar?

i believe it has been mentioned at gamescom (?) australia (iirc) there will be friendly pets, such as horses and dogs. link anyone?

because this is a "simulator" of sorts, it is unrealistic to be able to 180-headshot with a sniper rifle as easily as in other games (CoD etc.) So when tracking a target very quickly, holding a pistol you can track your target more quickly than with a mosin. The CQB allows you to move your rifle more quickly from side to side than if you had the MP parts. What about mouse sensitivity and all that? Another can of worms my friend.

screen grab?

61. any chance OP is joining a hardcore server?

someone call Admiral Ackbar, quick!

wrong page

i am SO holding you to this

nobody repairs electronics they just toss em and buy new ones

just eat some food and your stomach will stop grumbling. All good bro!

It's all part of it though, right?

Hey Cap'N! Great read. thanks for that. I also didnt realize they removed a large portion of the game. must be a reason.

So lately I've been writting down messages on paper and leaving them for other players to find. Usually someone kayfabe things like "Searching Cherno before heading north" kinda bs. I know players tend to leave a note on their person for potential looters. Anyone find notes in the wild? Do you leave em?

LOVE your sig!

:)

I completely agree. In fact, sometimes their damage state causes them to appear written on. This would also give the developers another potential game mechanic. There could be survivor "stash spots", and these notes are a confession to them, allowing Player Characters to hunt for a good amount of loot (ie a backpack full of gear, or a pistol with a clip and ammo, or a stash of food). i.e. found written on a note on the ground "To anyone who can read this, I've fallen ill. I survived for 3 months but all is lost for me. All my wordly possessions can be found at my camp, coordinates xyz" or "Crashed helicopter. need to investigate. East of Zelenogorsk" "Trust no one wearing a gas mask"

gtx560M. Noticeable smoothness increase. is what I came here to comment on.

it's your doppleganger. Shoot it if you want to be a new spawn. Or make a game of it and aggro players and zombies to it and try to keep it alive.

Well this is a first for me. Someone recently got the jump on me. Not only am I alive out of the ordeal, but i wasn't even robbed! I was running around Balota air field, someone in a Barracks heard me. I clumsily run into the top room. "Freeze." I turn to my right, and there is an SKS pointed at me from not 3 feet away. There is a man knelt in the corner, his gun drawn on me. I shoulder my gun and put my hands up. "Oh good." He says. SItuation completely diffused. I kneel down, we chat for a bit, he asks me to lay down as he leaves the building. No handcuffs, no rotten fruit or disinfectant. He just carried on. On his way out he asked me if I had any friends outside. I told him the truth, "No, I am solo". Glad I could repay his kindness by not lying to him. Thanks random guy!
