[Help me, wise gamers] Long distance Flickering on a "gaming" rig !
FatBoyFish replied to paradogz's topic in Troubleshooting
Its not as bad on my GTX670... still there a bit though, and like you, only through the scope -
looks closet gay to me (Just kidding by the way)

Tell me you guys don't have names for your (Dayz) guns yet?

Sniper @ Berezino Docks - WP! Are you here? :)
FatBoyFish replied to e00c's topic in General Discussion
Your opinion is 100% incorrect. Most people like to see and share exactly this kind of story. This was a great game experience, and partially captured and kindly posted for us. You don't have to read it, so just move on without flaming / trolling / swearing / shouting. -

It was the most intense gaming experience I've had in a while, even though I spent most of it unconscious! Just hearing everybody scrambling to first locate then flank this guy... superb! -
I dont get kicked...?

Id also like them to just do English place names... The Russian alphabet is hard, especially being chased by 6 zeds with nothing but a coconut and pencil sharpener

Hi all. Im Paul. 42yr old Solutions Architect working for the man. Wifey & 2 kids. Huge fucking mortgage. Mostly play after 8ish after the monkeys go to bed. Trustworthy, not killed anybody yet, but been killed about 6 times. Looking for more friendlies to play with. PM me if interested. Also play BF4 sometimes. Really looking forward to DayZ developing...

Agree - right now it is pointless - just hope the Devs are keeping a beady eye on the discussions here... Looking at the rest of the 'discussions' going on here, it always amazes me how people seem to come across; scared, angry, keyboard brave, young, old, ranting, kind, homicidal, etc... I wonder what it would be like if we were all in a room chatting with the devs with a cup of tea and biscuit - very different, hilarious I recon - people wouldn't recognise the actual human from their posts.
-
I think the argument for separate PVP and PVE servers is definitely valid... I'd love to go on actual friendly servers. - Based on actual PVP kills, not some kind of hat thing or whatever (Off to play BF4 TDM now - where PVP should stay!)
-
Good post. To give it a twist, my film inspiration for the way I hope this game somehow turns out: Zombieland - clown zombie Sean of the Dead - defending a pub 28 Days later - escaping out of the tunnel Dawn of the Dead (2004) - rooftop celebrity headshot scene (And the 'Have a nice day' music at the start) Night of the living dead - slow moving dread horror type stuff ...I also wish that everybody on this and most other forums gave people the same manners they would afford someone face to face... I know, no chance - but I live in hope!

Maybe you basically were killed by a spawned bandit. I hate that, no code!
-
You said pve has no place in dayz. You mean it should be pure sb (which is looking like 90% pvp?) no rules? Id love love to try pure co op you see. Needs more zombies of course... but that will come.
-
You prefer pvp only?
-
People confuse camping outside an airfield and sniping with 'combat'. I'm preying for co op servers separate from pvp servers based on a players pvp kill count (pvp server only) or zombie count (either). Im always at a disadvantage as I try not to kos, had a guy in my sights last night, and could have fired but waited... *blam* so my style is swinging to kos I think which isn't why I bought this game, as its the co op against z herds which I think will be more fun
-
Hi all love the game so far, and cant wait for further updates... great job guys, keep going! I generally want to see less PvP 'Kill on sight' type play though, because people are preying on those who are not playing the game in that way. I'm not going to whinge about banditry, but I just think its more fun to team up to face a common enemy than ourselves, and there's frankly loads of better PvP games. How to achieve this...? Setup 'PvP' scoring, so that all the naughty bandits can all play together and shoot each other all day long - hell, you could even set up a PvP league table for them. The way it could work is, you can only get on a 'Friendly' server with PvP participation scoring, and very low PvP deaths - like if you are defending yourself, or accidentally kill somebody. Oops etc... there also should be zombies killed count, which allows extra weapons / mods etc. (Likewise, PvP servers should have their own mods for PvP death count) The other thing (that I've seen mentioned) is that the game needs more zombies, like thousands of the things (This would also encourage participation behaviour) - this would be great. I was thinking a 'world' should have a few 'herds' of say, 200+ zombies, and every town should be difficult to 'take' from them - say 20 - 50 zombies in a small town, and several hundred in a large city, but with more loot, so its more worthwhile. Nothing better than being chased by 5+ zombies, and getting away, or teaming up to take down a heard for oodles of loot? (Or at least a stack of ammo) I know thousands of zombies is server heavy and presents an infrastructure challenge, but I could maybe help with that (I design large multi-server infrastructure) - so feel free to PM me if anybody is reading. Could the code be compiled to run on AIX or something like Cobol? Looked into SMP / NUMA? (Sorry if this is dumb-ass question, I'm sure you have!) enjoy Cheers, FBF

Good idea

Bandit? Or just playing the game?
FatBoyFish replied to DirtyscumbagLith's topic in General Discussion
Im starting to think thats the right choice, but its a shame as he might have shared his food if you asked him. I would have shared if you asked me. -
Im only new on dayz, but all the posts about kos suggest to me that its decending into pure pvp, which isnt what i bought it for. As everybody gets more annoyed with kos, it will convert the middle ground over. Shame really...
