    Do we want a reward for surviving?

    Are you utter stupid or something? This game is so far from incomplete. More and more survival methods with be implemented. Hunting, cooking, hopefully fishing. Half of the items in game don't even work right now. Yay, we have matches, don't work. Oh goody, a portable gas stove, doesn't work. If you're playing this game thinking that this is how the game is you should quit right now and uninstall.

    Is anyone still Freezing every 5 seconds?

    I get the stuttering once in a while and never experienced the freezing that others did. Specs in my sig. Side note. I run everything on very high except shadows and clouds, those are on normal. AA = normal. Alpha to Coverage = All trees + Grass. Edge Smoothing = SMAA Normal. HDR Quality = Low. Ambient Occlusion = Enabled. Post Processing = Normal. 40-50fps and drops a little in the cities.

    Did characters get wiped?

    Was there? I'm guessing it wasn't a change in the version number then huh? Doh, looked at the change log in the game properties and it showed nothing. Ya, I see the update number now :P

    I don't think there is the weekly update today. They did 2 updates last week so I think their skipping this one <_<

    5 min cooldown for switching servers is way to little

    Server hopping can be stopped by making it one character per server only. This is all they had to do and you can bitch and moan all you want about, "what if the server is full blah blah blah." Go play on another, it's not like it's hard to gear up.

    Suggestion from a survivor!

    Once they add more survival elements don't expect the kos mentality to stop. In fact, it may increase the kos. Item respawn will also most likely increase kos so said players can camp and farm their favorite looting area

    Why loot is not full random?

    I'm not sure if I'm fully understanding the OP but here is my take on his post. I can spawn fresh and new and while I'm out gathering gear I skip so many houses right now because I know for a fact they don't have items in them. Understandably this is Alpha and all that is subject to change especially when they finally figure out how to implement item respawning.

    Spawned at three valleys...

    Do we want a reward for surviving?

    No you don't get it. You want a goal? Go play WoW or CoD where it's designed for people like you. The goal in DayZ is to survive and you do it by any means necessary.

    Do you feel the same?

    It's called hardcore because it puts players on a level playing field. You don't have to worry about people spotting you over walls, around corners, through windows they can't even reach. And for those who argue that "It was in ARMA" was because it was a "tactical sim" You know, like the Rainbow Six. The kind of game where you use third person to setup your orders.
  11. It's the same fucking thing buddy boo. Don't see the mods shutting this one down.
  12. So this stupid thread is ok but this one gets put in the grave yard? http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/162376-if-dayz-had-rust-minecraft-esque-style-crafting/#entry1636737
  13. That's the problem tho. Players don't want base building where they actually have to go and gather materials, ala Rust, they want map editing where they can just plop shit down and voila, magical base.

    What do you do when waiting time spawn?

    I do try to keep humor up while people are raging on these forums ;)
  15. I was going to do some performance testing just to see where I can play the game where it looks good but keeping a steady fps. Sadly fraps is a cpu hog and really doesn't help for the issue. Anyway, here is what unfolds..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H57M90Gp_T8 Moral of the story, fraps is a CPU hog and you should never rush a guy armed with an M4 while using a crowbar unless you are very sure you are going to knock his ass out. PS. I forgot to have my external audio turned on so you can't hear me offering the two players food.

    So while trying to do some performance testing....

    Thanks Max :D

    How to zero in with mosin when bolting takes eye off target?

    The way you put it was having the animation of actually adjusting the zoom, aka seeing your hand turning the knobs and you do realize the zooms are just place holder right? As this is Alpha.

    How to zero in with mosin when bolting takes eye off target?

    Well if the game engine didn't already suffer from poor performance some of those option do seem viable but they would melt a lot of players PC's

    To those whining about post-processing and gamma:

    Well at least you found your issue
  23. Caboose187 (DayZ)

    Couple things need to be addressed

    Wait, are you defending these forums getting flooded by idiots who clearly can't read the opening statement when they launch the game and have to click the "I Understand" button?

    Invincible while on sniper hill?

    You were probably shooting at a guy who had super high ping. I had the same experience like this at Kamyshovo. The guy was warping around or looked like he was standing in one spot killing players but wasn't moving. I couldn't hit him or anything then out of the blue, dead.
