I've never had to server hop due to lack of loot. I did run into a few server which had problems spawning ANY loot, but I'd imagine that was just a problem with the server. I'd hate to see frequently respawning loot as it gives people an excuse not to move around (you know, like you would have to do in a real survival situation).

Honestly, the level of luck in this gameplay is over 9000, especially considering I've never been in a gunfight in this game, but man was it intense! These are the moments that elevate a game. This is why I love DayZ: http://youtu.be/kym0GhUP0_M

LOL. I never played Arma and I had no idea how bullets, magazines and guns work in this game, so we tried to figure out as much as we could on the fly. If we made it out alive, I would have shared more of what I had. I'm a pretty passive player and avoid conflicts, but I had no choice but to defend myself. I can't wait to get online tonight!

Thanks for the tips! The depth to this game takes some getting use to, but it's so satisfying. I wish my friend stayed alive... there was so much loot to go around! LOL
-
I know, I fully expected to get killed, but luck was on our side. This was the second time with a working gun - the first time I never had a chance to shoot it. This time you could see us trying to figure out how the thing works! LOL

I've been testing several recorders and I'm currently using MSI afterburner... with this particular video, it was on a 2+ hour haul and I forgot to end the recording before exiting DayZ, which resulted in hours of trying to recover a corrupt AVI... hence the poor quality, audio, etc.. I record at 16:9 720p at 30fps. The game takes a slight performance hit, but you don't miss gameplay like this! Yeah, sorry about that... I'll add a shortcut to the fight, but I think the leadup is what makes the fight worth while (since we were starving and without weapons just minutes earlier).

Before shelling out $30 for this game, I thought hard and long about it. I usually mull over $0.99 app purchases and I'm use to being paid to test alpha/beta software/games, but... a) I intended to purchase DayZ at some point. b) The full release won't be available for at least another year. c) watching a game develop with new features and stuff is entertaining and interesting. So, now I've been enjoying DayZ and have no problems with the $30 it cost. The experiences I've had already in the game are priceless.

Combat logger = coward. There's no point of playing a multiplayer game if everyone around you is using god mode.

What is the most annoying bug in the game [Poll/Be constructive!]

"Ghost zombies" (showstopper) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMFW_VllDTo "Invisible Zombies" (huge showstopper) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAZCsKr616s Rubberbanding (incredible annoyance) Random deaths off ladders, roofs, stairs, being to close to walls, etc... (annoyance and showstopper) -
Anyone else not seeing loot or even zombies since last update?
InvisiMan2013 replied to turdpocalypse's topic in General Discussion
I entered several servers since the last update (Jan 5th) and there wasn't a single thing to pick up in any of the buildings... I did eventually find servers which worked, but the problem is certainly there for some - never was an issue before the last update. -

For those with low fps, it is probably not your setup.
InvisiMan2013 replied to thejoshknight's topic in General Discussion
If you can run other games at very high/ultra and get close to 60fps, but DayZ SA is getting less than 30fps on the low setting, it's not your hardware. I don't think the dev team can perform miracles with this game engine, but I'm sure there will be some needed optimizations before the game is completed. -
20 Plus Million Dollars Later...
InvisiMan2013 replied to Hero of Suburbia's topic in General Discussion
I enjoyed the developer vlog on Deans youtube account, but they ended before the alpha started. I learned a lot from them as he explained about the features they were working on. I've love to have monthly vlogs about recent updates to the alpha to keep us "in the loop". For the $30 we paid, I'm sure we'd all appreciate it. -
Rubberbanding has quadrupled since the rolling update
InvisiMan2013 replied to omgwtfbbq (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Yeah, I didn't have any issues with rubberbanding until I read about it in the changelog before the update was issued, and now it's something that happens constantly. -
I was on a Battleye-enabled server and was killed by, what I would imagine to be, a hacker. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WeNIwp_p_k What's Battleye suppose to do?

Battleye... I'm thinking it's not good
InvisiMan2013 replied to InvisiMan2013's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, I count two ricochets out of 21 shots... if you listen with headphones, the sound isn't one way or another until one point where you hear it clearly on the right side (which would be the window closest to the door... that would make it impossible to have come from the hospital. Now, if there was a second shooter........ LOLZ!!!! I ain't even mad. I play for fun and don't concern myself with life or death during alpha/beta periods. If I capture something that doesn't look right, I post it - if it's legit, so be it. If it's a bug or other problem, then it's out in the open. -
Battleye... I'm thinking it's not good
InvisiMan2013 replied to InvisiMan2013's topic in General Discussion
Right now, I'm not concerned about staying alive in game and would rather record bugs that I can later report. When I heard the shots (which sounded far) and then saw no bullet splash anywhere near me, even after a dozen shots, I simply assumed that I was either not the target or these magic bullets were finding me through walls (I didn't realize this game has bullet penetration). Watching other videos of players being shot and the hit detection being way off, I would have never expect someone to legitimately kill me from the middle of a room while crouched. LOL Perhaps the invisible zombie bug and random phantom sound bug has got me too paranoid for my own good. :lol: -
Just got the 240gb version of this: http://www.kingston.com/en/ssd/hyperx One of the biggest pain in a$$ games to load is Battlefield 3... now it takes like 20 seconds to load. Windows 8.1 boots in less than 25 seconds. Chrome loads almost instantly with multiple tabs populating just as fast. My computer (Dell Inspiron 17r SE) had a 32gb mSATA SSD for caching and a regular drive for data, but a pure SSD can't be beat.

Yeah, this must be the only spot. Feels like the JFK assassination conspiracy. :D -

Battleye... I'm thinking it's not good
InvisiMan2013 replied to InvisiMan2013's topic in General Discussion
I'd love to know where they were shooting from, since I was killed when crouched (there was no line of sight to any buildings where a shooter could have been). But if bullets can go through those types of walls, then I'll accept that it was a clean kill. From the sound of the shots, I assumed there was some fight going off way off in the distance, so I looked out the winder to see what the commotion was all about. :blush: -
Now I know what to do with the rope. LOL :P

Just started happening to me tonight... every server sees me being killed by invisible zombies :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAZCsKr616s

Rolling Update Rev. 0.30.113953

Hmmm... I've never experienced rubberbanding until today and apparently today is when rubberbanding was fixed. :blush: -
How to authentically strike the right balance of PvP in DayZ SA.
InvisiMan2013 replied to Zeds_Undead_baby's topic in General Discussion
Make it so that when people become murders, zombies are more easily attracted to them and they become zombie bate for an hour after their last murder... that'll cause people to think twice about kos.
