    Have we forgotten our roots?

    hello there We have to remember the DAYZ Mod was not the end result the Devs wanted, although it did appeal to the masses. I think many folk are expecting DAYZ to be more of a "Battle Royale jump in and PvP with added Zeds" sort of experience. That's not what DAYZ was ever about, although one can have that type of experience if one chooses. DAYZ was never community driven although obviously user/community feedback and input was and *is* valuable. DAYZ is DEV driven. This doesnt mean the devs are blind or deaf to our input, but they have their own singular idea of what DAYZ should be and this is what we are heading towards. Modding will be the thing many folk turn to in the future. Me? I want a survival sim, leaning towards realism with added infected and the occasional PvP. So, for me, DAYZ is on track. Rgds LoK

    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
  6. 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
  8. 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.
  9. Hello there Using a larger size monitor at a lower resolution has never been an issue for me as I find one quickly adapts. Also, having a larger monitor at least means that part of you set up is a little more future proof. I often use my 26' monitor at scales way lower than 1080, but because Im used to them I dont personally see an issue. Its when you start to whack em up and compare them is where the green eyed monster of jealousy sets in. Rgds LoK

    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
  15. 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
  20. 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
  22. 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
  23. 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
