Sticky or ban? I'm undecided....

Hello there Calm it down, please. You all have your opinions, right or wrong. This does not give you the right to become abusive to each other. Chill out or I'll lock. Rgds LoK

460gtx and a 3 year old mobo here. I've no intention to upgrade in the next six months/year or so. Hopefully I'll be able to play at a decent framerate. Rgds LoK

Undies are for girls. Its a mankini or nothing.

Hello there Please do not crosspost identical topics. Rgds LoK

Just pictures.... of me...

Hello there If its a private hive, it may well have its own forum or skype. Try hunting for that. A quick google reveals Zombie Go Home! - 500+ Vehicles / 20+ Heli / Custom Map / Extra Barracks / More Heli Crash Sites /Da 159.253.145.189:3357 - DayZ Server in United States There's a place to start.

Hello there Which version of arma do you have? A2? AO CO etc? and are you using Steam etc etc. the more details the better. rgds LoK

Hello there I think Dreygar has a good few points. Now obviously, I'm under an NDA and the footage is out of date so there's areas I cannot comment on. But, there surely must be (IMHO) similarities in the engines at the end of the day. At least I'm assuming there will be at the initial release. This is due to the DAYZ engine being a "retooled" version of the RV engine. There's bound to be bits that look/feel similar. This is what I *think* will disappoint/upset many folk at the initial release. Not everyone, but many. Take Iron Front Liberation. This was also a retooling of the RV engine (albeit to a much lesser extent than DAYZ) and although it was a sterling bit of work it was panned in many quarters (poor comms and marketing didnt help it either). Lots of folk dismissed it out of hand as a simple Arma mod but missed out on its great but yet more subtle qualities. Mine handling/laying/damage systems etc Now, huge swathes of the original Arma 2 engine have been scooped out for DAYZ and replaced by other bits and bobs, many of which may not be instantly visible to the average joe. Again, I think this is where the initial issues will lie. What I think will be key, is an investment in *time* with the game and it's progression. I think you'll see the game come on in leaps and bounds once the alpha is out, much like with the A3 alpha. I think Dean mentions in his latest vid about managing folks expectations, and some wailing is inevitable. What we have is a solid foundation to build upon not a complete 5 star hotel. As to Dean and Matt going to expo's, why not? He has a laptop/phone/skype/twitter etc, there's no reason for work to halt. It didn't while he was away up a mountain. I understand why one might think he needs to be tied to his desk, but in today's environment it simply isn't needed. My point being, is that although Dreygar makes some good salient points I think if he (and all others) is realistic about what the alpha will entail he (they) will be more than happy. But expecting a Cryengine style makeover simply wont happen in the short term. Rgds LoK

right. temp locking for the moment.

M This is a little better but doesn't really explain. Movement bad? why? Fridge? rgds LoK

one doesn't dare lock a rocket thread. just let it drift to the sediment at the bottom.

Chap, try not to resurrect dead threads. L

Hello there I'm missing something. What's so wrong with A3? I'm confused. Essentially its an improvement on A2, why is that a bad thing? Where is this "hand holding"? Im completely lost. Give me some reasoning, rather than "its a let down" etc etc.. Rdgs LoK

Hello there Getting bogged down on pigeon holing the game into a traditional box is a little pointless. I couldn't care less if it's labelled as a sim/fps/mmo/small penguin etc. I'll still be playing it. Rdgs LoK

Hello there Check the sticky threads as these cover many of the issues you are having. Rgds LoK

edited title for you. Not likely you'll get any result here though. Why not try to contact the admins direct?

Hello there People are resourceful little things and will always find ways to exploit. If they cant respawn they'll just Alt f4 or find some other way to spawn where they want rather than a random position. Sad but true. Rdgs LoK

I'm not making them out to be rare, I think folk are missing my point. In the context of the game they should NOT be a common item IMHO and even when located should not be in perfect condition. Rgds LoK

Exactly! It really varies from region to region, which means there should not be a de facto large amount of them available. L

Hello there bikes should be available, but not for the reasons you state. Also as you walk around how many bikes do you see on a daily basis? Yes, they should be ingame but not common. Especially not to aid poor players getting sore fingers. Rgds LoK

Hello there Real life often takes over or folk move on to other projects etc etc etc. Have patience. If more work happens then the thread will be resurrected. Rgds LoK

Hello there No one knows what server, out of the thousands there are, that you are talking about. You *need* to include server info in your title, otherwise your post is pointless. Rgds LoK

off to Everest again?

Hello there Just because "it's all over the web" does not mean it's ok to post it here. *think* about it. Rgds LoK
