How can I remove my account?

How to remove forum account?
extremistcouch replied to extremistcouch's topic in New Player Discussion
That way I would leave a trail of unused forum accounts that will be vunerable to abuse over a certain amount of time, is it possible to delete it for security purposes? Maybe an exception? -
How to remove forum account?
extremistcouch replied to extremistcouch's topic in New Player Discussion
Because I don't want to use it anymore, why is it not possible? -
Is there an option/hint somewhere to show or see how long a server has been up after a restart? This will help me decide which server to join as I don't want to end up running trough places all the time that already have been looted ;) Thanks in advance ^^

Ok. I will keep an eye out for those messages and add them to my favourites ;] And otherwise I'll just have to go with it! Thanks guys

Justice been done to that bandit!

I think for a chance on better/more weapons a visit to a military base/airfield will not hurt much, It's worth a shot, play careful and carry at least a fire axe.

Reduce The Common Lag In Dayz [Tutorial]
extremistcouch replied to Sanitöter's topic in General Discussion
I will test this out tonight, maybe someone can confirm this works in the meantime ;) Can you explain how this works and why this resolves the issue? Edit: Ok I have looked up some info ;] The TCP no delay parameter: The tcp no delay parameter controls TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) packet batching. The default value is 1, which means that TCP packets are not batched. TCP normally batches small logical packets into single larger physical packets (by briefly delaying packets) fill physical network frames with as much data as possible. This is intended to improve network throughput in terminal emulation environments where there are mostly keystrokes being sent across the network. However, applications that use small TDS (Tabular Data Stream) packets may benefit from disabling TCP packet batching. To disable TCP packet batching, set tcp no delay to 1. For the ACK frequency: http://forums.hexus.net/networking-broadband/194666-tcpackfrequency-gaming-latency-reducer.html So if I understand this correctly it will send smaller packets and with no delay, meaning that less data will be in each packet and thus lowers latency and ping, am I correct? -
Lack Of Points Of Interest (Central Map Part)
extremistcouch replied to donotlog's topic in Suggestions
And why? This post is not constructive at all. -
Lack Of Points Of Interest (Central Map Part)
extremistcouch replied to donotlog's topic in Suggestions
I think some small towns and cities wouldn't be too bad in those areas you mention, but if I remember correctly this will be added later into the game :) -
Scarcity of the current loot system is CAUSED by server hopping, Loot respawns can not be implemented at this stage (if it ever will) because it's unclear what the affect of the upcoming changes will be on the amount of loot in servers, if server hopping is fixed I suspect that loot will me more widely available in the common places people go like Balota. Also bare in mind that there IS a combat log fix upcoming with a 30 seconds timeout counter upon logout as mentioned by Rocket.

M4 in your hands and Mosin on your back, or visa versa?
extremistcouch replied to medium00rare's topic in General Discussion
did i just triple posted? sorry -
M4 in your hands and Mosin on your back, or visa versa?
extremistcouch replied to medium00rare's topic in General Discussion
I would say it depends on the type of area you are in, if you are in the city you can expect close combat encounters making the m4 the best choice. if you are closing in on a city or are out there in the open then mosin is generally the better choice. -

THE most hardcore, unforgiving simulator/game.. but still.. 3rd person?!
extremistcouch replied to JoakimTAA's topic in General Discussion
It's about personal preference, some players like 3rd person and some 1st so you can add both, besides there are plenty 1st person only servers out there right ;) I would like to add to this that I prefer 1st person also, because it adds more realism and more excitement as not everything can be seen as good :) -
Nice video, I should start playing 1st person, I think in overall it gives a better gaming experience as people will not be able to look over cornes and walls etc, makes it more exciting :)

Don't go up stairs with a very high ramp, and NEVER go onto balconies, best advice ever :P

<<<< [How to] Improve random player killing. >>>>
extremistcouch replied to Zeeb (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
I would not label people that shoot on KoS or after a conversation as people that should play CoD or BF4, It's just another way of playing the game. If I see someone pointing a gun at me I shoot. If he's unarmed I would cuff him take his pants off, and use him as bait, oh the JOY!! you can't take this away from the game, people should not have advantages or disadvantages just because they choose to play the game differently. You know it's just how you look at the game after all :) Sure you can walk to everyone and try to get on a conversation but sooner or later he or someone else will stab you in the back! Be carefull :) -
Just wanted to share my first experience with this game after buying it last night together with a friend of mine. I know the game is still in Alpha but we already had some fun last night, we spawned near Solnichney and did a quick exploration there hunting for food and water, we found a water pump so no thirst anymore! We were still quite new then and we would anything on our path alot of rotten stuff too (kiwis, oranges, apples), only to find out this made us sick this is obvious but how should I know right, first time! Anyways we were also still hungry till the point of starvation (hence eating the rotten stuff along the way), we made a run for dolina which I think was a bad choice, we didn't find much food there.. I did find canned stuff like beans but we had no can opener and we had to share our food so we were doomed, eventually we both died because of sickness instead of starvation falling unconscious to the ground. We are now looking for pro survival tips so here i am! ;]

Thanks I will do so!, by the way that's some very nice dutch your speaking for someone from scotland :P

Yeah thanks for the advice! Will just try to avoid the rotten stuff out there ;]
