Listen, you might make a good point in general but those exaggerated statements do not help your cause. Sure, apple trees and water wells are quite common but they are not available in every settlement. Nit-picky or not, I'm pointing out the inaccuracy in your statements. I could imagine someone new to the game coming here, reading your fallacies and spending 15 minutes trying to figure out where the water well is in a settlement that doesn't have any.

That's simply not true

The new update brings a decent fps boost on my machine (HD7970) but I've noticed a severe frame drop while driving vehicles. A friend who owns a TitanX also experiences this. At first the drop is not noticeable but after several minutes of driving you'd be hitting several fps/s, especially around towns. I'm wondering what your experience with vehicles is on 0.60 and if the frame drop might be server related?

You're making some valid criticism. The problem is that people here don't like to hear that, especially people that have 1k posts (I'm not implying anything, it's just an observation). Many of these guys are bashing anyone who has anything negative to say about DayZ's development. As I've stated many times on this forum, this is counter productive. Everybody makes mistakes, the DayZ devs are no exception. Let's discuss those mistake openly and like grown up people. We have been given roadmaps (in the past) that haven't even come close to completion. Don't see anything wrong addressing that.

Op raises some legitimate criticism, all you do is make yourself look stupid.

The game has far too many other problems. Also, having 1pp and 3pp servers renders this whole debate kind of not worth having. But in all honesty, 1pp is more realistic. I think 3pp is the arcade mode in DayZ.

Pretty immature response to people that have pointed out some genuine problems with the game. With that attitude, DayZ will run out of players soon enough. With a peak of ~7k players, this game is dying before our eyes. Maybe it's time for some people to take off the pink glasses and stop bashing people with genuine critique. If you can't talk openly about the problems of DayZ, you can't have hope that anything will change for the better.

My friend ate a cooked stake yesterday and got sick. Can he survive? I have given him blood transfusions and I'm constantly keeping him light green energized and hydrated. We don't have charcoal tabs :(

What a nice way to start a fire :D

Gotta love DayZ logic, I just accidentally drunk a whole gas canister of fuel and got energized. Charcoal tabs and I'm good to go :D

The game lacks purpose at the moment. Surviving is not a problem at all but making it harder to survive will not make the game any better. What the game needs is to somehow encourage player interaction. In order for this to happen, something radical must be implemented. High zombie count would be a good start but there needs to be more. If they can't achieve that, then the game will remain a PvP shooter.

Pro tip: When you snipe, aim with the ALT key because you rotate your whole body otherwise, which draws attention and produces sound. Observation: You're a noob.

I guess you guys might be right. It's just that after playing some of the Arma3 mods, it seemed to me as if the RV4 engine provides with everything needed for the standalone. I really hope that the new engine that they write will kick ass, I really do. I love DayZ SA and want the game to be as good as possible.

It was related to our Arma3 engine discussion and the fact that it is superior to the old Arma2 engine in every way. I don't see why would they want to create a new engine from scratch (Enfusion), when the RV4 can handle everything they want to achieve (e.g. a ton of zombies, that's why I posted the video).

No it wouldn't. Let's take the new render for example. Why are they writing a new render for the SA? Because the Arma2 engine render is written for DX7/8. Arma3 is written for DX11, thereby eliminating the need for a new render. Instead of that, they could have focused on fixing the netcode, which is bad enough even in Arma3 (still better than Arma2 though). Anyway, as I already said I'm not saying the devs are lazy or stupid, I'm just being realistic. I also fail to see you provide any credible argument to your Enfusion hype. You've said it yourself - you know as much about it as I do.
