    The problem of DayZ SA - thread #999

    Hello there. There is tonnes of info out there on DAYZ dev, most of it linked directly into these forums. As to the old Tumblr, well I dont know what's up with that, but Im sure there's a reason for it being in the state it is. Claims of "no progress", "dead game" etc ad nauseum can be (wrongly)levelled at any developing game (see Derek Smart and Star Citizen) it does not, however , mean that its true. Rdgs LoK

    Vehicle Windows WTF?

    Hello there Im going to close this as its essentially a duplicate of a locked post. I will notify Boney to have a peek though. What I will say is that whilst your OP has a point, it could be worded far better as if it were directed at me, I wouldn't acknowledge it if I were a dev. I too have noticed odd camera heights in certain vehicle in Arma, ive not driven in DAYZ. Dont make another thread on the issue until you hear back from one of us, thanks! Rdgs LoK

    Spawning with something to suicide with

    Hello there DAYZ is supposed to be *hard* Suiciding etc because one does not like their spawn etc should not be an easy option. DAYZ was never meant to be "simple". Games like H1Z1 cater for that audience. Rgds LoK
  4. Hello there Not arguing per game (it is a game we are talking about and concealed carry in this way *could* work) but this is an interesting article as well as arguments on both sides in the comments. http://www.outdoorhub.com/stories/2015/07/27/concealed-carry-myths-dont-need-holster/ Rdgs LoK

    Strategy for Killing Ground Swimmers?

    Hello there You can always report hackers via a private report on the feedback tracker if you have the required proof. As to combating folk exploiting this, just be patient, its a known issue to be addressed. Rdgs LoK
  6. Hello there Also, dont forget that many folk you see putting their "pistol in their pants' will actually have a holster there but on the inside of the trouser/pant. ie https://www.copsplus.com/inside-the-pantholsters.php As it *is* the apocalypse and gun safety, for many, wont be an issue i can see folk trying this. Whether they are successful or blow their bums off is another matter. Rdgs LoK Ps dont forget guns are surprisingly heavy for their size.

    Concept of what I'd like to see in-game

    Hello there I think we've all spotted the flaws inherent in OP's post but the ethos is sound. Lets focus on what we *could* do, not what OP has got wrong. What feasibly could be attached to weapons? If it's doable, one can assume there are pics of it on the net. So, home made suppressors for .22s taping mags together 2 or 3 stack. attaching a torch/flashlight to a rifle/smg What else? Rdgs LoK

    How to Fix the Fashion Issue

    Hello there Ive said it before and I'll say it again. Inventory systems are so 1987 IMHO it needs a drastic rethink, not just DAYZ, rather all games. Rdgs LoK

    How to Fix the Fashion Issue

    Hello there id like to wear *my* clothes in game. Dark Brown Leather Greatcoat. Biker Jacket Black Jumper Black Combat Trousers/Black waxed Jeans Black combat boots Optional: Black Fingerless Leather gloves. I Like the colour black btw. waterproofing and slots are not really a concern for me personally. Rdgs LoK
  12. Hello there Check your CPU temps, perhaps as happened with me your thermal paste is failing. I only noticed issues with one or two highly CPU reliant games the rest worked fine. see if you can find ant stress test apps to try to isolate the faile. Rdgs LoK

    How did you discover DayZ?

    Hello there I first heard about the mod from the Bohemia forums where us old milsimmers looked upon this silly "zombiemod" with scorn. I had played some older zombie Arma 2 mods which I actually found fun (against my expectations) and so had a peek in here. I arrived with a bit of a chip on my shoulder I must say and many pre judgements but soon found I really liked the mod and the forums. I think I turned up about the same time as the official/unofficial Kronzky SP release and the fallout of that datewise. Its been an hugely interesting experience for me, both as a mod and as a player. Rgds LoK
  17. Hello there Dont take roadmaps as the word of God written in stone. @edwin dont be so distrusting, everything will come when it's ready. There are no "evasive" answers. If there isnt a definite timescale, well, that's because there isn't a definite timescale. All this guff about "promises" makes it sound like you believe BI are a very shady company deliberately lying to you. Its silly. Apologies if I have the wrong end of the stick but have a bit more faith. Rgds LoK

    To report piracy?

    Hello there Please either contact BI directly or PM a moderator here with the info, we can pass it on. Whilst rewards have been discussed they are not fixed as of yet. I cannot guarantee any reward at this time. Rdgs LoK
  19. Hello there If you dont like Early Access Alphas then I cannot recommend DAYZ to you. Its in EA. Its Alpha. Its a work in progress. Do not expect a finished fully playable game. Expect bugs. Expect broken aspects of play. Expect missing game mechanics. If you can cope with those you will find the dev process really interesting but its not for everyone. Rdgs LoK
  20. Hello there Dont forget that many of the descriptors are place holders etc. Dont put too much faith in them. However, if an item doesnt work as it *should* check the bugtracker and see if its been reported. Feedback is wanted! Rgds LoK

    increase Map size

    Hello there You can probably expect Avatars and vehicles to be able to travel so quickly overland. At the moment its far too fast. also, theres a new interview coming up where Hicks will describe "No go zones" (radiation?) etc. Keep an eye open for that. Rgds LoK

    Smear yourself with blood

    Hello there I dunno if any of you have delt with quantities of human blood but it coagulates (dries) very quickly, turns brown and cracks so you wont get a "Carrie" effect for long. Its also initially very sticky and smelly. Think of blood like guns in films, looking cool but not always realistic. Oh, and dont forget disease vectors. Still, it *is* a game and who knows what could happen? Animal blood *can* be nutritious. Also no need to go to Africa for animal blood food. We eat it here. Black Pudding anyone? Rgds LoK
