Hello there AFAIK the whole avatar controller will be overhauled and (I assume) inertia etc will be a part of it. it's definitely something the devs will have taken on board but whether its "fixed" only time will tell. Anyone remember when you could run faster diagonally rather than straight forward? Avatar control is a vitally important thing IMHO and is a bit of a stumbling block from putting DAYZ and Arma in their rightful gaming position (on top of everything else!) and is an issue that is often commented on both by players and press. If the devs can pull off a good compromise tween the existing control and the traditional FPS controller it will be an ENORMOUS coup for DAYZ and BI. Rgds LoK

Why would they do that? Why is it "the right thing"? L

Hello there When you *do* post assertions which are untrue you will be challenged on them. if not by me then by someone else. This is not some personal attack on you rather on your "facts". You can be critical if you wish but you must expect some debate about your stance, again nothing wrong with that. Healthy debate is great. My issue is you steer off from facts and go into insults and slurs as well as asserting things that simply are not correct and could be confirmed with a modicum of Googling. Now, if you had an opinion on a game mechanic and why you liked/disliked it then thats fine and you could try to convince me otherwise and I you, or we could both agree to disagree. It's nothing to do with me being a staff member its about facts. Again terms like "This whole "buying a game on the pre-tense that it will be finished eventually" thing" and "JUST BECAUSE its not blind optimistic, positive reinforcement is hilarious" just dont help your case as a)Early Access is clearly marked and disclaimers tell one not to purchase unless one is sure about supporting development etc and b. who wants blind fanboi ism, we certainly dont. Its unhealthy. Disagreeing with you is not being blind or positive reinforcement its simply disagreeing with you. And where is see a factual error espoused as truth by anyone I will correct that. Rgds LoK

You see it's things like this which dont help your credibility. L

hello there Firstly i *have* been openly critical of some development design decisions in the past, the thing is I did it without being rude and using facts as I saw them rightly or wrongly and I attempted to educate myself. Secondly, there are other games in a very similar position and they're moving through development just fine. see Miscreated for example. Thirdly, Alpha. As we are in development elements *will* be broken missing etc Zeds/infected are no exception to this. If a FM in a sim is broken in alpha then although it might be annoying it's more than expected. You *can* express your displeasure if you wish, we encourage constructive criticism but using facts to back up your argument is key. Hardly ridiculous. Rgds LoK

or you can use facts. L

Hello there Waaaaayyyyyy off topic. Also, personal insults will not be tolerated even if it is "hip and groovy" street slang. I *know* its the internet but just try to be pleasant to each other while you are in these forums. Back on topic, please. Rgds LoK

Hello there I wouldnt buy a new rig *just* for DAYZ, especially at this stage, its just far too incomplete. But I suppose it depends on one's disposable income. Rgds LoK

Hello there http://withsix.com/ Also supports DAYZ AFAIK. Its not to everyone's taste but i like it alot. Rdgs LoK

Hello there Note in this thread a member I assisted a day or so ago reported a bunch of servers and successfully had them taken down etc. Keep reporting in the correct way. Rdgs LoK

Let's stick to pies in this thread, shall we? Specifically Apple. L

Hello there I think, "why" is a better question. I don't disagree, but give us your "workings" Rdgs LoK

Hello there I sense some angst towards the possible "biased" moderation on these forums. I, for one, don't wholly agree with that. I personally am happy to let those with legitimate concerns and complaints air their views, but they have to be prepared to accept counter argument. We only yard/hide threads that deserve it. If you think otherwise then PM a mod and we'll discuss it. I won't tolerate insults or abusive behavior be it from a "fanboi" or a "hater" or anyone else. If you can be bothered to trawl through my earlier posts you'll find that I have been openly critical of some design decisions in the past but I didn't rant and rave or make sly insinuations about "shady practices","lazy devs" etc ad nauseum. You can be a critic here and remain for as long as one wants. Its how one does it that counts. As to Steam, well their review system is lacklustre to say the least as are their built in mod tools (or the one's we are currently allowed access to). Only use steam reviews as an indicator, not your sole point of reviews. Rdgs LoK

Hello there We neither issue nor administrate BE bans here. As to purchasing the games again, Google is your friend. Closing. Rgds LoK

Hello there Next time dont make alt accounts to promote your own video. Also, do some research. Rdgs LoK

Hello there Do you think this will only happen because the devs have implemented these rules? If people are going to sell stuff, they don't feel they *need* dev permission. What this does is put in place a clear ruleset to halt that kind of behavior. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, but I expect rules to be far tighter (enforced) once the game launches. I wouldnt compare the mod to the SA. Different beasts entirely. Rdgs LoK

Hello there I dont see the video as completely staged. Im sure elements may well have been such as the placement of the "groups" and the scaring off of the deer. One can emulate this scenario (roughly) in Arma2/3 in the editor. The end result will be similar but it will never play out in the same way 100 percent. I've worked on several Alpha/Beta "promo" videos from different games to know how they are generally done (IMHO) and this one doesnt look like a complete fabrication. I think depending on the AI factors in play that this is pretty much the behaviour we will see on a day to day basis of player/Animal interaction. Look at games like Skyrim (with mods) one can see quite an interesting ecosystem at work with their wildlife and some semi realistic behaviours as well. I think this is all well within the AI teams capabilities. Im really interested to see more of their work as an SP kinda guy Id like to see more of a PvE experience when modding hits and their stuff is key to that experience. Rdgs LoK

You *know* exactly what I mean. behave and get back on topic. L

Hello there Wolves do indeed get a bad press. Dogs are far nastier, Ive encountered in real life angry feral dogs and they do not give a plop about us humans. Although based in reality we have to remember that this is a game and just like the English in movies, we are not in reality always the bad guy. Brfore that it was the South Africans then the Russians etc ad nauseum. I dont have an issue with wolves being an enemy, perhaps the virus has affected them too in a different vector and made them more aggressive? But, I do feel sorry for poor wolfy in real life. Naughty devs. Rdgs LoK

Hello there I too am generally "against" monetization but if one bothers to actually look into what BI are/will be doing there is little to no P2W and there are built in safeguards to stop/deter exploitation. The worst I can imagine is a shirt with a clan logo on it, yes it might protect one against exposure but its hardly P2W. Dont forget that the legit servers will have to be approved and any other servers exploiting the system will be dealt with. I think there's too much "knee jerk" hate and not enough comprehension on this issue. Rdgs LoK

Hello there Very few (if any) vanilla items do not affect gameplay. This is for modded stuff and for post release to ensure there's no P2W. Rdgs LoK
