I'm sure it will upon release, OP. Hopefully it's better than Arma 3's SLI support, though. :T Currently, DayZ has next to no SLI support. There are a couple of custom Nvidia profiles out there like a couple of people have already linked, but they're not worth using, imo. They reduce your frame rate in cities and increase it everywhere else -- unfortunately, it's generally cities you want it increased in -- not further decreased. Nvidia released 'SLI support' in a driver around Christmas time, but it did virtually nothing. I have DayZ set to 'Single GPU' in the Nvidia Control Panel. Works much better.

I still don't know why I bought DayZ. I question myself everyday.

This thread just goes to show you that sentence structure has nothing to do with one's ability to hoard in DayZ. 9.11/10

There's a technical support forum, FYI. That aside, mind posting some computer specs? Sounds like your video card is dying, whether or not it gets hot.

There are no good Dayz SA youtubers?
Grimey Rick replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
They're all pretty boring/bad. The only one I semi-regularly watch is WOBO, and that's mostly just because he releases a pretty good post-patch breakdown of any changes made. -
Any ideas on increasing my FPS (AMD)
Grimey Rick replied to Senodog's topic in New Player Discussion
It didn't do jack for me on my old 2600K. I was running that, 32GB of RAM, and the same video cards on a RAID 0 Vertex 3 SSD setup. It actually made DayZ take longer to load. I've never found they do anything useful. They just disable some Windows services that you could do yourself beforehand. -
The final goal for most people in DayZ is to stumble upon the forums and endlessly rant about how bad it is. I wish fewer people would make it to end game.

The Bone Condition Stat (Why you get one hit)... Why does it exist?
Grimey Rick replied to Beizs's topic in General Discussion
I would rather have more accurate zombie animations pertaining specifically to attacks and have one hit that draws blood infect/kill you. I'm not a fan of being able to take dozens and dozens of hits from infected only to bandage and move on. In every zombie flick ever, if you get hit, you're fucked. Your friends then have moral dilemmas figuring out what to do with you. TL;DR: More concise zombie movements which make avoiding attacks a little more straightforward coupled with severe penalties for not managing to dodge said attacks. -
What next development milestone gets you most excited?
Grimey Rick replied to ebrim's topic in General Discussion
I'll be excited for the day when DayZ doesn't take forever to load and shut down. -
I vote that the DayZ community stops replying to these threads. They're pointless. On top of that, if the OP used the search function, he'd find multiple solutions to his "problem" within minutes. Thoughts?

I hate DayZ but I love it so much...
Grimey Rick replied to EpicTickles's topic in General Discussion
I love how every second person ranting about DayZ is a fucking software developer. It makes me lol. -
What's with the long-ass explanation? Persistence enabled = shit stays in the same place after restart. Leave a truck parked in your base, it'll be there later. Persistence disabled = shit spawns randomly after every restart. Leave a truck parked in your base, kiss it goodbye.

How to play DayZ when there are no servers within 170 ping?
Grimey Rick replied to sorenackerman's topic in New Player Discussion
Haha. Probably because to them, you appeared to be Neo. 600ms ping ftw. -
Getting stuffed faster than I can drink.
Grimey Rick replied to jmvars's topic in General Discussion
My wife got stuffed faster than she could drink after I got home from a three week turnaround at work. -
Let's be realistic, now. C'mon. Three mags.

Nvidia Users: Potential FPS Increase
Grimey Rick replied to UKA Harrysoon's topic in General Discussion
This didn't do jack shit for me. Just another redditor looking for upvotes, imo. "Why did you try disabling this service?" "More FPS in DayZ!" "Cool, why this service?" "I dunno." "Cool, does it actually increase FPS?" "I think so. Maybe. I'll post it anyway. MOAR UPVOTEZ!!" -
If you can't play DayZ in its current state, you're bad at video games. Honestly. Back in my day we played DayZ for five minutes at a time before the memory leak crashed the game. What did we do then? Why, we logged back in for another five minutes, of course. (;
-
These ideas are so bad. Just murder people until you're bored, then wait until the next patch. /thread
-
What the fuck? We already HAVE this.
-
Is... is that your setup...?

I refuse to farm. In a game where people complain about so many things being unrealistic, planting and harvesting a garden should take a lot longer than five minutes.

Let's continue recommending that someone server hop hoping to find a glitch. EDIT: 10/10

I shouldn't have to explain it to someone such as yourself just for the sake of an argument. You should know better. DayZ Mod is strictly a PvP-fest. While the Standalone currently has excessive amounts of PvP, it also encourages survival. Very, very, VERY few Mod servers run vanilla DayZ, and even fewer make surviving difficult (besides other players). The OP didn't specify what kind of game he is looking for, so I gave my opinion. Imagine that, someone giving their opinion based on experience on a forum on the internet. Cray.
