or note down your kills? How can you not know if you've killed someone? Dont you loot em? Or do just snipe away constantly? L

I would like to hook up with a girl on the eve of 31st dec/1st Jan. But, it's my personal goal so, if i fail I'll be quite happy to succeed at a later date. Don't hate me if i miss my target. Most of all wish me luck. Rgds LoK

Hello there Have a lovely one everyone, and thanks for having me on board. It's really appreciated. Take care, go mental but dont go too mental. Hugs LoK

Hey guys, let's not get personal. Not to add fuel to the fire, I used to get the two weeks off as the marketing dept closed down over the hols and we had one poor old secretary who manned our dept in case of an emergency. It does happen, although it does depend on the company and the sector they are in. So even us old fogies (im 42) get to play sometimes :) Rgds LoK

Well again there was no hard and fast date. The xmas release was R's personal goal. As was stated. Again if someone in the organisation says no to info releases then although others may want to, they simply cannot post. If your marketing dept doesn't have the go ahead, there is nothing one can do. It's no other depts remit. It IS simple in theory, but in reality can be very hard indeed. L

promises? where?

Hello there I'm old school, so I prefer Chenarus and Lingor (although recently Lingor's sea keeps changing colours drastically). Rgds LoK

Hello there The last would be nice. Very nice indeed. But, I think that if I were in their shoes, if I had missed Xmas (just due to it being a good sale time rather than any arbitrary deadline), then I personally would hold off until late Jan early Feb (perhaps Valentines day) to release the SA. This give a tiny amount of time for final tweakage and a good date to generate PR with. Just my HO. Rgds LoK

Hello there We can all agree that some info would be good. There is no denying that. None whatsoever. My point is, that I think that the lack of comms is not being done deliberately to keep us in the dark or to annoy us, rather there are descisions being made/or have been taken that we are not privy to which have resulted in this quiet time. Tbh it's not been that long. There are quite a few folk who are desperate for further info, but it's surely not a vast amount or the forums would be flooded. I think the majority are just happy to wait. Again that's my speculation and could be wrong. rgds LoK

@electroban "if I print it on my T-Shirts in my merchandise shop" If the chap make any cash out of it then there could be issues. Making a fan tshirt wouldnt be an issue. The devil is in the detail. Rgds LoK

On further reflection this thread has derailed so im locking it. Continue the discussion the the SA thread as it's more appropriate. http://dayzmod.com/f...one-discussion/ Rgds LoK

Hmm well I'm not going to debate with you over two threads. take it to the other one. Lastly, no the word doesn't offend me even if I choose not to use it. It was the sentence I thought was daft. L

Hello there Again, we're guessing at what's happening and drawing conclusions from that. Its just not fair. Until we know FACTS neither of us can say anything on the subject with any authority. Would I personally like the situation to be different? Yes of course! But, the belief in the fact the dev's are just being lazy,stupid, arrogant, etc for me just doesn't wash. If there is quiet on the PR front, then I think (and hope) that there's a damn good reason for it. If it turns out I'm wrong, then I'll be just as miffed as everyone else. I just believe the angst this is generating in a few posters is a little out of whack with reality. rgds LoK

Oh, dear. ****ing arrogance? No, just no. L

hello there All the info you need really has been covered in depth in the forum. Try using the search function as it really does work :) Google also is useful. I recommend you download Arma2free and see if you like the vanilla game as well. Arma2CO has a vast amount to offer and literally thousands of mods/maps/missions to add for free. I recommend it. It's also on sale at the moment, so if you have spare xmas cash, think about it :) @everyone else. Thank you guys for being patient and helping out a new user. Muffins for everyone.

Hullo there Without being picky, many business over this period, are run by skeleton staff and whilst "open" are not running at 100pc, so key members may be absent. But really we don't know about BiS so we are just speculating. I suppose what I am getting at is we don't have all the facts. Perhaps Dean is desperate to get info out to us, but his bosses are stopping him. Perhaps its the other way round? Who knows? I've worked for multi-nationals and also in their marketing depts. It's very, very easy to have some chap/chapess with influence on the chain of command to halt comms. Plus, if I had gone over their head and released a PR without it being signed off, I would have faced disciplinary actions. I'v e been in similar situations as the one I have alluded to and frustrating though it is, especially as the rest of the team knows this info has to "hit the streets" one can only do what one is allowed. Its not exactly a "wikileasks" situation. More info and the game will come when it's ready too. No one is harmed by a perceived delay, I'm sure we can find something else to occupy our selves in the meantime. Rgds LoK

Hello there Bohemia Interactive is the place to be asking this. http://www.bistudio.com/english/company/contacts/44-public-contacts/38-business-licensing Get their permission first. They're nice chaps but will not stand for any naughtyness when it comes to infringement. rgds LoK

hello there No flames. I don't like flames. Also remember, this isnt just Rocket now. He's part of a business. A business based in a different timezone that has probably shut down over the holidays. Perhaps he and the main dev's are unable to post/tweet etc due to contractual obligations. Mix that in with real life happenings and the holidays, it's not surprising that things have gone quiet. Also remember that the "deadline" was a personal goal of Rocket, not anyone else's. Is it an ideal situation for us gamers? No. In an ideal world would we have done differently? Yes. A last thing to remember is you, me and that bloke over there don't have all the details and insider info. Any number of things for good or ill could be occouring, so we cannot judge or lay blame at any specific doorstep. I think many folk should just get on with enjoying the holidays and stop obsessing over what is just a game. rgds LoK

IMHO any hit from a rifle or pistol should be severely delibitating. If i stub my toe, im pretty much out of action for a few minutes, step on a wall plug and im pretty much incapacitated for 5-10 mins. Paper cut? damn that hurts. Stops me from what im doing. Having a piece of lead pushed through my skin, muscles and bone, possibly resulting in bone fractures, lead and bone splinters being left in my body to mane but a few unpleasantries, now that's really going to screw up my week. I dont subscribe to the "stopping power" theory. If I put a hole in you be it with a pencil or a bullet, that's gonna hurt. Yes there arre other factors and one may be able to function (poorly) for a while. But if one is hit one should be "out of combat" so to speak. Rgds LoK

We've had the idea of infected animals before, but not one that includes the dangers of eating infected meat afaik. Interesting possibilities. L

Splendid, thanks for the share.

ditto. Nice to see a progression on from Ragdoll. Will be very interesting to see ingame in a year or two. L

A bump already? we don't like bumps.

Contacting BE is very simple indeed.

Hello there I believe Inception is busy handing out infractions elsewhere in this thread. If you guys cant play nice, then you wont be playing here at all. Be civil. Rgds LoK
