  1. After the last Beta Patch my loading is much faster. I was up north, with lots of gear and loading times were during less then 10 seconds. I died at some point, going back to the coast, when i noticed that after my death loading times were much higher. Can't really say why, but it's weird. After some time it went a little faster again, does it have something to do with being at the coast? Funny stuff. Anyway, it seems to be improved since the last beta patch (was previously using 94876 and now using 95099).
  2. That's one of the things that ruins the game and the experience. Game is perfectly fine, but humans are broken. Just hope god send us a hotfix to that, otherwise it's impossible to trust people on a game where you can virtually do ANYTHING. No punishments for jerks and no incentive to cooperation leads to situations like this one. I hope when the game is fully released we can have some changes regarding this matter, otherwise it will be like you said a Battlefield 3 with zombies. Honestly, i don't think you're entirely wrong. Kids and their lack of maturity are frequently responsible for acts like that, but i don't want to generalize, since there are a lot of immature adults out there acting the same way.
  3. By your tone i bet you're one of the people who make the others complain. You are allowed to kill people, although it doesn't mean you have to start killing EVERYONE, even people who just started without a single weapon in their equipment. People complain most of the time due to the lack of cooperation in the game, but that's what happens when people can do virtually anything in a computer game, they just act like jerks and bash each other. I bet the main purpose of the mod - at least when it was being designed - wasn't just so people could shoot each other hiding in bushes, cooperation is still a part of the environment, but people most of the time forget about this. If you think it's fine the way it is, it's either because you roll with clan members or a group of friends or because you're one of the bush-wookies hiding out there, just think about it :D . No cooperation involved means the game is not different from the rest of the FPS shooters out there, in a 225km² free-for-all match. As soon as the developers figure out a way to promote cooperation (instead of just punishing banditry) i bet most of the complains will stop, and we'll have some peace. This is my opinion, i'm not trying to convince anyone.
  4. It doesn't matter if they are easy or not to avoid, the thing is that the zig-zagg moving is ridiculous, and i really think it should be changed in future patches. By fixing the way they move, i couldn't care less about their speed, we just need a way to shoot them while we're outside of buildings, when they are running at us.
  5. Your position and gear will be saved if you join another server (vehicles and tents will only stay in that server). One thing to notice is that there are official and private servers. Playing on official servers (connected to the DayZ hive) means your character will be saved across all the other official servers. Playing on a private server means your character will only be saved in that server, making you stuck there. Pay attention to what server you join! :thumbsup:
  6. I tried it and it didn't work for me :/ Tested using the Operation Arrowhead Benchmark (75 fps using Very High settings) with my .cfg files and with your configuration, i felt no changes in the benchmark results. It's sad, because even getting nice frame rates in the bench mark, sometimes i experience some lag while playing DayZ. Wish it worked :(
  7. This works without ANY loss of quality in the image?
  8. I'm looking forward to enter a gaming store and see DayZ in there (or maybe don't see it because they sold all the copies? :) But yeah, looking forward for the release!
  9. I was about to say this, damn. Anyway, going up north makes things more quiet, compared to the big cities like Cherno and Elektro, but it's also not safe. By going up north, you'll find more geared people, and those are the people that you won't even see if they kill you.
  10. Only hipster players love to brag about this, so please, ignore it. The game includes a lot of different features that you don't see in other games, it's bring a lot of immersion when you're playing. Just keep in mind that calling it a simulator is a little too much - zombies? Really? - but it TRIES TO SIMULATE things that we also have in real life like hungry, thirsty, tension, etc. It's an amazing game, different from every other game i have played before, but i don't agree with the simulator thing.
  11. Aside of the loading time being TOO LONG as i said before in this post, one other bug is also freaking me out big time. Got lots of broken bones by walking a little close to my friends in small areas like corridors (it's like we hit each other and BAM, broken bone). This is something that also needs a fix. And again, the loading screen! Also as a suggestion for the future, it would be amazing if when we clicked twice in the backpack, we could actually see the items inside it (seeing the items in a more intuitive way, like when we're watching our weapons in the main inventory window). Right now we can only SEE the backpack items more clearly when we are looting stuff, it would be cool if we could do this anywhere, anytime. It's very helpful so we can keep track of how many free slots we have.
  12. You will have a hard time finding your first weapon in small towns or villages. Very close to these towns, a little out of the cost, you will find a lot of farms with barns and stuff where you can actually find weapons and supplies. You can also find guns scattered all over Cherno, Elektro and Berezino, although you will find lots of players trying to do the same thing, and even players looking for people just to kill them. If you want a more random gameplay death match style, stay in the coast, you'll find lots of supplies and weapons but you will die very often. If you want something different, just go north and look for supplies there.
  13. So assuming my phone rings, i want to answer it but i just can't leave my character out there in the open, so i log out for a few seconds just to answer it, then i need to wait 30 minutes to enter the server again just because you say so? Nice. Just think harder to find a solution that will only punish the griefers without including the honest players out there.
  14. Just wait for the full release of the game, MAYBE it will get better. About the flamers, just ignore them, i bet most of them are responsible for what you just said in your post - server hoppers, griefers, etc. I love the game, i love the idea, but the community is ruining the experience for me too, but what the hell, we can't keep the kids away from their computers forever.
  15. Dude from your posts around the forum i can see that you're always willing to spend 5 hours defending your point. I have one opinion, you have a different one, case closed. I don't have that many time to try to convince you about my point, i just said what i think. Cheers :)
  16. My country ain't that big but i can assure you there are no Machine Guns and .50 guns on it. It's not a matter about being realistic, please forget this word, there is no such thing as a zombie in the first place. I'm just saying it doesn't fit the situation. but that's just my opinion, it's OK if you disagree. The map is filled with small towns and villages, so i think it would be more plausible to find civilian guns instead of military weapons all over the map. Not to mention the amount of US weapons, which also doesn't fit quite well, but regarding this i couldn't care less.
  17. LOLOLOL. I remember when i played this mission, damn you Call of Duty.
  18. I also think they shouldn't be in the game. But not just the .50, a lot of other military guns too. The game should have more civilian weapons, unless in Russia finding Machine Guns in the airport is a common thing.
  19. Six launcher will also update your game. If a new patch is released, you will be able to see the "UPDATE" button right above the "QUICK MATCH" button, so there is no need to actually open Six Updater, just the Launcher. At least that's what i do.
  20. Yes you can find guns in deer stands. http://dayzdb.com/map You can check what you can find in deer stands in this map if you want. I found an AK and a M16 a while ago, not impossible but you also need to be lucky.
  21. If i'm being "robbed", i rather shoot the bandit and take my chances than doing this surrender thing. Teaching people how to make things easier to bandits? Hell no, it's already too easy for them! Also i'm not here to be robbed, i have my share of being robbed occasionally IRL so i'll pass that, thanks!
  22. ^ This. And Lotus, just make sure you have the amount of slots free on your bag before trying to put the weapon inside it, because if you don't have the amount of space needed, the gun will just disappear and you won't be able to get it back.
  23. You're not being forced to host the server, but if you do it, just do it the right way and get over it. They set the rules, if you don't agree with them, you are free to stop hosting at any time, we'll forgive you. It sounds like blackmail to you? Haha. Even in real life it works this way, what happens when you break the law? It's not different here, there are rules to be followed. Actually, it's much better here, since here when we don't agree with the rules we can always leave, unlike real life. Like i said, stop hosting the server then. If you don't like the terms, you're free to stop it any time! God, i wish we could have studio hosted servers to end discussions like this one.
  24. #Sorry, this post can be deleted, my internet lagged and i posted the same thing more than once.
