No animals were in any stress builds for .63

The gamma trick is still a thing. I can alt-tab out and then back in and adjust the brightness slider to be able to see in pitch black. I don't use it because i'm a fan of flashlights/ headlamps etc. but it is still not 100% fixed yet. The player base is coming back with every patch, slowly but surely. Even just to check it out and then go back to fork knife to dance the night away. A fair amount of people are on A3 dayz or exile mod variants right now. They will also return because of how janky those mods play, but for now they are waaaaaay more feature complete.

Had the BSoD last night, rebooted only to find steam not recognize my dayz files. Had to delete and reinstall, which will be an issue for people who have limited data on their plan (not me but still). Pretty annoying.

Have faith in the modders, they will have what you want.

Go play fork knife and dance, son. We don't fucking care.

Sad

I haven't bought a "finished" game in damn near 20 years. I can't even remember buying a game that wasn't updated the second I put the disc into my system. You can thank the advent of the internet for that one. So no whining about it. ALL games get shipped unfinished these days technically speaking.

Omg new guy joins 44 mins ago and is salty as my sweaty ass. Fork knife is out. Go dance.

Wow, new guys come in and make a bunch of dumb claims. Who would have saw that coming?

I agree with the view distance, I hope they don't cater to the console crowd with their weak systems. I spent money specifically so I can have nice shiny games not some kind of ghetto console port on PC.

Arma4 which is in dev is gonna use Enfusion. Arma has a large player base, and people are chomping at the bit for more info on Arma 4 right now. Unreal sucks as far as big instances and tons of players running around. Thats why Vigor has low player count. Looks interesting though. Just because they licensed another companies tech doesn't mean squat. BI is in the business to make money, and if they want to use an engine that works well for most applications then they can. Why not use an engine that is documented and has tech support already? Dayz on the other hand is a different beast, with a lot more going on under the hood. Nothing more to say. Weak argument at best.

$800 is kinda low, most of it will be spent on the graphics card. Good news is he will have plenty of time to save up and upgrade. Btw, I play settings maxed with a gtx 970. 60 fps all day every day with v-sync on. The new tech they have added to the game has improved fps so much that a beefy card is no longer needed IMO.

16GB of ram would be a good option, plus a SSD.

Salty kid is salty.

Odd isn't it all that these new members on the forums first posts are nothing but nerdrage?

My only issue is that only in video games do people aim for the head. Anyone trained to kill with a firearm aims for center mass every single time unless there is absolutely no other option. I do want dispersion though.

This is what an irrational sense of entitlement gets you. Also there are plenty of testers. Have a great day.

Don't worry, easy mode will be modded in.

Nice first post

This thread is like a flat-earther group or maybe anti-vaxxers, full of misinformation and nothing but conjecture. @Hicks_206 (DayZ) has stated the only facts in this thread. I would not be mad at you if you chose another profession after having to deal with the butthole of the internet for the past 4 years. Thanks for your valuable time and considerable effort you put forth in this project.

Could be they want it a bit more simple than ArmA mechanics, I don't know. I like dispersion, but someone could mod it in. Or even go further and add barrel heat to the equation. First shot will be dead on, all shots afterwards will not be unless compensated for. But that is an extreme real world condition. Coriolis effect for example. It's not in the base A3 game but people modded it in.

Some video capture programs mess with the gamma, that could be it.

No such thing. Yet.

Diablo 3

ArmA 4 is in development right now, and they are going to use the new tech that Dayz and its crew is pioneering now. I know ya'll like to think they did it just to piss ya'll off, as if they give two fucks about your precious feelings. It's business. Maybe use a search engine? Read up on a subject before the tears flow?
