oh I see.

stable and experimental are on separate hives so its two distinct characters that cannot interact in any way. just curious how do you plan to deploy each version on a separate hard drive?

wow, just wow. the reason I gave up men years ago. my father must have been the last gentleman because there is a distinct lack around here.

seriously dude I am not the only woman that reads this forum. that was just vile and perhaps better shared with your brother as opposed to the rest of us. next time you have the "urge" resist. a lot. edit: I forgot to mention. if you think it might be offensive in the least don't post it.

the book of job and the new testament are both books available in the game. as for the vestments, not yet if ever. I would love to have a nun's habit, I would carry bibles and a magnum. I would work to be famous for being heard to share the word or spread the lead till everyones dead, of course I would offer the choice. I would prefer not to shoot but how else to protect the sanctity of the church in the apocalypse? that would be just the kind of RP that might change my playstyle.

if you spawned in a forest and you have a shirt you can tear up your shirt for rags then search the forest floor for sticks to make a splint. apply said splint and be on your way. should take 10 mins tops and that's stretching it. if you have no rags or items to make rags you could be in for an extended wait. there is always the option to request a medic or someone else from the forum to come and fix you up, be it meds to get you going or an axe to start you over. as a rule you should ALWAYS have something to make rags, that's just good planning.

so all I can say is I don't understand the "I just killed some guy" posts at all. enlightenment on the mindset would be most welcome.

the game is a monster for CPU usage and windows has a really bad habit of parking CPU cores to save power. give this a read http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/28cla2/dayz_sa_frame_optimization_launch_options_fov/ and do some research on core parking or CPU parking. the reddit link has some .cfg changes you can make to improve your performance outside of the ingame video settings. by the way Max is correct on the amount of ram you have - I would invest in a 64bit OS upgrade so as to utilize all of your hardware.

I agree, I have seen this mentioned a couple of times and I even mentioned it once myself in another unrelated thread. What was suggested to me in the other thread was a whole topic on the subject of "missed connections". It would be nice to be able to be able to easily find someone either for the sake of offering a personal thanks for some good deed or a rebuke for bad behavior (keeping it civil of course). Who knows.... it could turn into "DayZ dating" or "Pistols at dawn".

That server restart was very unfortunate. Your goods were still there when I managed to find the server again, I completed your backpack and placed your items inside so they would attract much less attention. The backpack is behind the bush you chopped for sticks (now respawned), I did verify that it is accessible but if for some reason you cannot pick it up just chop down the bush again and it should be plainly visible. Oh and I did find a nice fire axe on the way to look for the one you dropped so I have left town for an extended camping trip. Good luck on your travels fair stranger, Elle, Collector of all things pristine. PS: As has been mentioned before, a pinned Topic for "missed connections" is an excellent idea.

thanks guys. I work hard for my gear and I assume others do too so it was a shame that the server restarted right after he dropped it all to craft the backpack. it was the least I could do for another friendly. indeed and I agree competely but a pinned topic might happen quicker than a whole forum section. but ya never know.

hehe yeah this might be something that would have me people hunting to acquire if I end up unable to find it otherwise.

hrm my late stepfather carried one of these in WWII and according to him the ping was not a problem with having your position given away, in fact your position was generally known by the enemy but you were under/behind cover when the small skirmishes would break out. he and his brothers in arms used the ping as bait to lure the enemy that had not yet gotten wise to the tactic of pinging an empty clip on someone's helmet. he said it much like this... ping! they peek, you shoot. of course the tactic faded as the enemy got used to it. its funny that people would think the ping would give away your position considering the ping only occurred when the clip was ejected (or when baiting the enemy), meaning that you were already firing your weapon (like that don't give away your position) when it happened. the M1 Garand is a dream to fire and I would love to tote one of these around chernarus.

in whatever is the quietest and safest manner. sometimes its an axe to head and sometimes its a round or two from whatever firearm I may be carrying and sometimes its my fists in a frustrating toe to toe. I will note that occasionally I just run and when I run I usually aim to have the zed suicide over a hill or get distracted with some local wildlife. mostly I decide how to deal with them depending on where we are on the map and how many of them I have to deal with.

strongly resisting the urge to insult you off the internet for even suggesting such a nasty thing - if you wanna shove stuff up your butt go do in your own home but don't ever EVER suggest such atrocities be added to a game, particularly a game that I paid for. sickos everywhere I swear.

golden. man that was funny :)

you have my deepest sympathies.

oh look some more stuff for modded private hives.....

so I inadvertently tested persistence earlier this week when I was switching out backpacks. I dropped a child's briefcase in favor of a hunter's pack and went about my looting, about 3 or 4 mins later the server restarted and I rejoined. as I was only about 3 or 4 mins from the child's briefcase I made my way back to it to see if it did indeed remain and low and behold the very same pack I had dropped was still there. also in the area were a few new items that were not present before the restart and as far as I can tell everything else that was there when I originally arrived at the location. as to how long that pack would stay, I really couldn't say but probably not too long due to its badly damaged condition but it did make it through one server restart. no we cannot repair bags at this time - is that even going to be a thing?

perhaps you should go spend some time reading up on the current state of development before you come here and cry a lot. zeds are getting some major rework, which you would know had you been following along.

OP have a good look thru the gallery. there are a lot of regular youtubers with vids there.

hehe I was stuck under the apartments at dubkey once so I set my character to running and jammed the run key on my keyboard and went off to do some housework. she was fully hydrated, energized and healthy when I started that exercise and an hour later she was still healthy and energized but not yet thirsty. I unjammed the run key and subimitted a ticket - much less painful.

if you keep checking on your ticket, it's status will change to "resolved" when they have you unstuck. my ticket was resolved in a few hours after I submitted it (which is like light speed compared to some other game's tech support).

umm there is a place for trash like this....http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/6794-i-give-up-this-game-is-bull-i-want-my-money-back/ your welcome.

maybe in your neighborhood but in my neighborhood we are all pretty much locked and loaded 24/7 and we would have the KoSer types hanging from the telephone poles in short order to server as a warning to other KoSer types. maybe you need to find a better neighborhood dude.
