With all the stuff wrong with the game I can't believe how many people care about ammo caliber.

Is this new? I haven't played in a few months but zeroing was a necessity...while sniping anyhow.

Couple million copies already sold times what, $30 a pop? You do the math. Minimal investment including a regurgitated, atiquated game engine.... From a business standpoint, the most profit potential would come from the game being scrapped right now so I doubt anyone there really cares.

Great game, great concepts, great everything.....Except for the engine. The game engine finally became a deal breaker for me. Too herky jerky and not appropriate for a game of this nature with melee combat, zombie AI, FPS combat. It's just too off the mark and too difficult to play comfortably. I'm sure as soon as this game releases the final product there will be 3 games identical to this one that are built on real game engines and then I'll be down to get into it hardcore.

I don't. I can understand the logout timer to stop combat logging. I get it. If you're hopping in order to manipulate the situation in battle then I can understand it if you're trying to log into a server that you were just recently on. But is a 500 second login timer really necessary in any scenario? Sometimes people just want to try a couple different servers to see what's up and where the action is. I just got 500 seconds for logging in twice. I mean really.... In the time it took me to alt tab and post that I still have 190 seconds left....

So....im stuck on the top part of the ladder in a highrise and I can't get back into the building because it's bugged and the opening is higher than the inside of the elevator shaft.... The only way seems to be logging out while running towards the opening and then logging back in but I've tried it twice now and have spend over 1000 seconds in the logout timer. I'm still in the same situation I started in. Good Job DayZ dev team.

Wont lose your guys but if you tweaked any of the configs you'll lose those.

This thread is stupid.

The current system for bug reporting and 'voting' is too much of a hassle so I personally won't bother. This game has made a TON of money already. Many millions.....they can pay an admin or two to come to these forums and extrapolate what we post here in the way of encountered bugs. It's kind of a joke.

I'm a long time OC forum member and overclocker. I've been running an i7 overclocked to 5.0Gig on liquid with an SSD and a GTX 680 for over a year now. That is a great SSD optimization guide. I've been running with all these tweaks for a while. Beans for the posting the guide Hombre, I was going to do the same thing after I was done reading this thread but you beat me to it. Also, don't forget to UNPARK YOUR CORES if you're running Windows7! If you don't know what it means JFGI.

I started carrying around a walky talky just in case anyone else happens to be doing the same. If you see one then pick it up, stick a battery in there, turn it on and leave it on the default channel!

Okay, so. Moral of the story is save your batteries and the next time you see a walky talky, pick it up. turn it on and do a sound check from time to time. Post your stories here!

In that case, here's a video I threw together of me with a Mosin/LRS on top of one of the apartment buildings Northeast of Balota. From there, I sniped a guy on top of the Northeast firehouse in Electro. The distance map has it at approximately 5,773 Meters. However, the video got cutoff a bit early so the rest is Anchorman Brian Williams singing a Snoop Dog classic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jidziKYG9jk

I was hoping we could get some phantom soda can opening sounds and maybe a bunch of random zombie grunts. Throw in some ghost reload and ammo combining audio and I'm good.

What's up with that hud display on the bottom right side btw?

HAH!!

I was mostly joking. Have my beans, Sir. ;)

Wow, for real? I don't think I'm at all out of line but okay, you got it.

I think they're use lies in voicecom with folks that you don't know and are unseen, but may be in your general vicinity. ie....If you and another person have one and are in or around the area of any of the airfields you will be able to shout out and communicate with each other. I think it would make for more interesting encounters and help to facilitate interactions with folks that normally wouldn't happen because the wouldn't even know each other were there....

Yes, just annoyed that I wasted my time with that video. If you've never died then gear up on a stable HC server and let's do this thing again, me vs. you? I'll meet you anywhere and even let you call it and post up prior to my arrival.

Next time please warn us if your going to post a horrible video that just shows you looking around uneventfully and then claiming to have killed a sniper while the video wasn't recording. I was expecting to see something good. Also, you've never died.....you're full of shit. Great idea for an event, horrible video. Don't watch, waste of time.

So I think the way they work is you put a battery inside and turn it on. Anyone that has one that is also powered and turned on can hear your voicechat from a 1000m radius. ***Note you can change channels and must be on the same channel as others to hear. I propose leaving it on the default channel*** Also, you can place one down somewhere and those nearby to it can also hear your voice transmissions, but I'm not sure if they can transmit unless it's on their posession.

You should change the title to use "to" instead of "too". :)

They definitely spawn. I found one yesterday and it's true, they spawn very frequently in the fire station more often than not. I just think it'd be cool if people started using them and communicating with each other a bit more. Let's push for this!!
