Where are all these hackers that are apparently on every server? 270 hours in on 40/40 servers and I have yet to see one.

You be the one that needs to read the patch notes again...

Not the queue timer. Again, not the queue timer. What I said was in reference to what I underlined in the OP below.

Just so you know... while you have a queue timer, your character is NOT in the server.

Welcome to the world of people acting how they really want to act.

Why would rain damage clothing?

You could also think of the dot as being your index finger. While shooting at targets that are within 100m it is very easy to just have your finger pointed forward at at the target and hit it.

Fuck no to spawn protection, there is no point in adding something new for a bug that will be fixed. Spawn protection is for the weak. I still log out where I always have, in the woods under a pine tree, well away from any town. I have yet to log back in at the shore or being beaten by zombie.

Version numbers have nothing to do with time.

I found 3 1911 mags in the Zelenogorsk military base last night, but no 1911 yet. I probably wont end up keeping one if i find it though, since I already have an FNX. I wouldn't might testing it out to hear the sound of it.

Restarting DayZ a few times fixed this for me. It's not a permanent fix obviously, but it might stop it from happening until you stop and then start playing again.

This is what I was thinking as well. I'm not for or against having LMGs in game. I do think that if they are put in they will be pretty rare and firing it will put a massive target on your head(not literally of course...), but everyone and their brother will be looking for you if they hear it. Also... Lol @ all the "M249 is not really accurate" comments.

I kill or get killed by most of the armed players I run into, but every so often I also have some great conversations with armed players while I am also armed. One thing that certainly keeps me from shooting someone is if they get the jump on me and don't shoot. This obviously sounds like the right and easy thing to do, but a friend that I play with wants and tries to kill almost everyone he sees and always have to talk him down from wanting to kill people that I don't want to. I also try to help people when I can and don't kill people unless they are asking for it. I've mended plenty of broken bones and fed the hungry. Like Real Meatshield said, play how you want to play and don't let anyone tell you any different.

I honestly don't think they are going to make it raw mouse input, unless after redoing it they just say fuck it.

How is mouse acceleration a bug?

Sigh... in the end, pointless thread is pointless. If the Devs wanted the mouse acceleration gone, it would be.

I for one have never said that there isn't issues with the mouse acceleration. I'm just for mouse acceleration and understand why it is in the game. And I know what a 1:1 ratio means. If this were actually 1:1, you would literally have to move your mouse the distance it would take to turn around, so whats that? 4-5 feet? Then comes changing your sensitivity, which you could make it so you can turn around by moving your mouse just a few millimeters. Super realistic am I right? Again, I am NOT saying that the mouse acceleration doesn't need some work, but I strongly agree that mouse acceleration should be in the game.

First of all I never compared DayZ as a whole to being like a twitch shooter, so I concede to nothing. Second of all, I also use a high DPI, 8200 to be exact and I have no issue. Ill give you a scenario, someone is behind you, you try to do a 180 and shot them. The weight of the weapon is not something you're used to and you aren't military trained so you don't know techniques. You go too far and get shot in the face.

Nothing it your first paragraph has to do with this topic, which is mouse acceleration, which mainly affect shooting, which is what we're talking about. If mouse acceleration is removed, the shooting in DayZ will turn into the same as it is in all twitch shooters.

I've have this happen to me after playing from 1-4+ hours. After it happened I have to restart my PC or it will happen within minutes of joining a server. At first I thought it was my graphics card, because when I force close DayZ I get a message from windows saying that my graphics driver crashed and has been restored. But with this happening to multiple people and also my friend who has a nVidia card and I have a Radeon, I really do believe that this is an issue with the game and not people graphics cards. Edit: Neither my friend or I run Windows XP or use -winxp.

This made my day, I almost hope that this will happen to me. Best of luck with the issue though, might need to delete and reinstall.

If mouse acceleration is disabled, that is exactly what shooting will turn into in DayZ.

HA! Based on what? Guesses? Based on real life experience, my picture is of me in Iraq... Also based on the simple facts of momentum and not to mention that your character is not military trained and should not move like they are.

Pointless post is pointless... The guy was just explaining that, even though there is only one other person on the server and you think "there is no way that they are near me", you're probably server hopping in a military loot area. Tons of other people do this and it is very likely that you will run into someone and being killed while there is only one other person on is not a sign of hacks.

I live in Vermont, US, which is around the same latitude that Chernarus is suspected to be and during the winter months it can be completely dark outside before its even 5pm.
