I don't get it, what kind of combo are you doing that you are holding alt, i know tab is the inventory but still. I havent alt tabbed by accident even once. And yes they should deactivate alt+f4 and put a 10 second timer on the exit button.

Im afraid to say i just hold down the W key and contract carpel tunnel.

I fell for it, well done. You already have my beans but i owe you another for making rocket fall for it to.

The fps you are stating is hardly unplayable, you have the right to complain about fps but consider the game is early Alpha and they are very aware of this already so just have patience and you can expect from them they will be improving the engine.

I love the rage post. Let me take this moment to welcome back all the hardcore testers from the original mods beta. The people who spend hours of their day trying to get into a server because the connecting was so shoddy, who started in a world that was even buggier then this one, with an inventory system that sucked so bad you needed a guide on how to use it. Who could not even defend themselves by melee because it was not present yet and died in droves at the coast because of the zombie horde. The state of the mod back then was so much worse then this is now, by todays standards the standalone is done. You payed more for your shitty call of duty and battlefield 4 which were unfinished, still arent finished and had millions invested in it and made by a company of hundreds. You are just a disappointed fanboy, and when the mod kicks off after a couple dozen patches you will be playing just like the rest of us, so go sit in your sad little corner and wait.

Just make the military loot rare on the coast and better the further you head inland. On light of this, enable the deer stand loot pretty please and add a random small building like a hunting shed/tent with better then average loot that spawns randomly in forested area across the map.

Seeing the stuff they still have to do you might want to repost this idea in about half a year. Love the food poison idea though, it has real merit but the poison itself would have to be uber rare. And i would employ it myself by poisoning something in my bag and making sure i get revenge on whomever killed me later. In light of this idea, a check option on food would have to be introduced. But who knows, the dev team might bite.

Get used to it for now, with all the other stuff needs doing this might be very last thing on the todo list. Run in third person, you shouldnt be bothered by it all that much that way.

The two storey barns currently dont have loot so skip those completely, the long barn with the large indoor floor spawns some normal items and could contain anything. The cow barns spawns quite a lot of items and can contain good finds. Havent found the defib yet but i saw on someones twitch stream they could use it on a dead person from the dropdown but its not confirmed if this actually works. It would be a pretty cool mechanic if it did. Albeit the defib would be have to be very rare.

i was greyscale when logging in earlier, and was sick. I cleaned my wounds with alcohol, and ate and drank a lot. After about an hour the world started to have more colour. Then green message popped up stating my wounds were clean and i stopped being sick and now the colours are like when i spawned. Weird thing is i have yet to see the i am full message on either drink or food. Might be a bug because this char is still alive from 2 patches ago though.

I suggest you make a new topic about this, this one started a year ago. We need a small refresh in this section.

Timestamps mate, original post is a year old, they were about the mod and not the standalone. Lets get out of here, this place gives me the creeps. *runs away*

Been testing the patch on Wireworld and so far im not impressed. The suped up zombies are to hard to handle and to glitchy to properly defend their current behaviour. Its like all the old patches where zombies were overpowered have been mixed together. I know people were looking for a harder dayz, well thats what it is now but personally i dont find it very fun. Zombies are supposed to be a challenge yes but not one thats more threatening then other players. Two kinds of infected, the soft ones and hard ones. Regardless they can hear you crouch running from across a field, they are so fast you cant lose them. You might have a chance when they are still far off but when close you are basically screwed. Like i said before, challenging zeds are fine but when you make them more powerfull and agile then players are, its missing the mark. They can hit faster, manouvre better then players. They can hit lightning fast, while running and then moving again while players cant. The melee is still utter shit, and firing a weapon now is like ringing the dinner bell. Add to that the chance of getting beat down, getting infected while bleeding and needing to headshot every one of the harder zeds because they wont go down otherwise. I dont know about you guys but i play this game to have fun and even weirder to relax! Not possible with how it is right now. I can't even run trough a forest or open field without zombies chasing me from the distance. Nice "Community" patch but try testing it on a broader audience before deploying, i foresee a lot of people stopping to play because of the current difficulty. (flame me all you want btw if thats what makes you feel better, im giving my honest opinion and i wont be logging back into my forum account untill stand alone 07)

Tops The Netherlands 9ff4666491865ae74e27116a472633a1 I stopped playing Dayz for a while because of patch issues (tents giving unlimited gear) I recently started to have fun again and my friends advised me to play on a whitelist server, yours looks very good so here i am!

My char was 22 days old, every gear imaginable. I log into a field between Polana and Gorka and i see this car come driving down the hill from the side of berezino. Im thinking to shoot or just dodge, i cant decide. My legs freeze up and i just stand there.... And he runs me over.. I think my char had become suiicidal after being alive for so long. Weird..

Nice poll, not sure why you used it seeing you start talking about things that have nothing to do with the poll, you are not really investigating anything but just using it to draw more attention to yourself. I'd recommend you actually start reading the forums first before you start making topics and bitching about things, there are countless posts on all of the subjects you want to remove/be fixed and they are generally much better defended then yours.

Right click speakers in the windows right bottom corner, click open Volume Mixer and drag the sound of Arma2 back up, whenever skype sees a game it drops the volume on it.

Check your filters, if its set to a specific parameter like Do not show when full, then whenever the server is max pop it disappears from the list or it could simple be offline, most server restart 4 times a day.

This is one of the main reasons i do not use the AS50, it keeps disappearing on me. I've heard people say that if you keep 1 free space in your backpack it shouldnt happen but i have not yet tested this and i dont think i ever will. I'm using the 107 and it has yet to disappear for me.

Im not sure what to make of that video or why you call it evidence. If this is really about an admin locking the server then yes its against the rules but that's about it.

Most players use the third person point of view and that doesnt interact well with being shaken up, try starting out on a server that has first person locked in. If you do anything with zombies you'll be using them pretty soon.

Rocket will eventually fix the buildings slowing down zombies glitch. He removed the starter pistol to make the game harder, he will do this when the other stuff is fixed. The pathing is a bit weird but its not remotely hard to kill a zombie, sure you might get hit but thats the tradeoff of getting in a good shot.

You won't be able to see someone at 1300 i think, i have yet to be able to see someone over 1000. In any case, you just need to get a feel for the rifle to be able to guess it. Im getting pretty good at it with the 107, first shot showing me the distance and overshot and then the second one usually hits right on target. But ive been using it for a while now.

You have to think a bit more engine wise, Arma2 does not have keys required to enter a vehicle so neither does DayZ. I think the idea isn't bad per se but finding rare keys AND finding super rare vehicles is a bit overkill. With my luck i would find the keys then die repeatedly and losing them again every time, then finding a vehicle but no keys... No ill stick with finding rare vehicles and then the parts to fix them which take a lot of work and are pretty rare themselves. Good try though!

You missed an option in the poll that counts for the majority of the people currently playing. 3. Lean over the keyboard and Alt+F4. Not trying to be a jerk but i hardly see anyone run away, they just log out...
