Melee aiming - post your info
Robert Neville replied to Robert Neville's topic in General Discussion
Thanks all for the info. I never had any issue before 0.49 and was able to kill zombies with one blow. It's the 0.49 patch that introduced a lot of problems. -
Is it worth buying Dayz standalone yet? [With Developer responses]
Robert Neville replied to Blade4777980's topic in General Discussion
DayZ goes through stages. Release 0.46 was indeed playable and almost at the level of a finished game (many features were not included but the game was complete). The current release, 0.49, is heavily bugged concerning hitboxes and melee fighting -- I find it almost unplayable. So if you want to buy the game to be part of the development process, go ahead; however, be warned that playing can be quite frustrating. I would wait, for buying the game, that these main bugs (player & zombies hitboxes, body temperature, dry/wet status) are fixed. -
In all videos I see people opening up their inventory while continuing to run. How do you do that? Whenever I open my inventory my character stops.

Melee aiming - post your info
Robert Neville replied to Robert Neville's topic in General Discussion
So what do you do? You run? -
Since the last update, my Character popup menus are blank: I cannot select skin color, sex, shirt color etc. Additionally, my character is not shown in the DayZ main screen. Anyone else has experienced this?
-
My game cache is ok. I'll try to delete the config files. Can you tell me the names of the files I should delete?
-
What a waste of ammo. Too bad neither of you realized that you could have teamed up and get rid of all zombies.
-
The amount of a-holes in this game. Share your stories.
Robert Neville replied to Aussie Connor's topic in General Discussion
Same thing happened to me -- some bastard entered and axed me without a word while I was eating in the police station. He was a fresh spawn too. It seems that the concept of collaborating for surviving isn't something that they have in their minds. -
Ok, got it working. Thanks.

No, I haven't disabled shadows. Restoring default settings does nothing. See screenshot here: http://imgur.com/NgwpD53 (On a related note: how do you attach images in-line to posts? I tried to specify the image URL but I get an error saying that this image extension is not valid. It's a simple jpg.) EDIT: Managed to attach the screenshot, here it is:

Are you talking about cfg files? I haven't.

Good combat system with the zombies.
Robert Neville replied to SuppressionX2Q's topic in Suggestions
I have noticed that to score headhits with the axe, you have to aim a bit higher than the head. With the crowbar, to score a body hit you need to aim slightly right of the body. Any combat tips with the machete? -
You met a dick. It happens. Next time you're the one fully geared and armed, help fresh spawns and don't be a dick yourself.

[Virtual Tour] Myshkino Military Outpost
Robert Neville replied to Weyland Yutani (DayZ)'s topic in Gallery
How did you made the video? I mean, how do you get free camera view? -
Let's Play DayZ: Are You Taking The Piss! - Ep. 6
Robert Neville replied to youtubejmachine's topic in Gallery
I experienced the same today. The 0.49 patch has seriously botched the gameplay concerning fights against zombies. It's just not possible that a female zombie takes 16 rounds of melee and a male one 50+ before kicking the bucket. Oh, probably we shouldn't bother killing them anyway because they'll respawn nearby immediately and start tracking us again. There's a bugreport open, please vote it up: http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=10925 -
0.49 Stable First Impressions - DayZ Standalone
Robert Neville replied to street707's topic in Gallery
Good video. Where's the isolated house at the 15:50 mark? -
Well done, way to teach him to be friendly. Or at least to learn aiming before playing the bad bandit. Note how he kept the drinks in his backpack sorted by type.

I think that we should open a sticky thread for people looking for other survivors they met in DayZ. Shortly ago (19:00 GMT) two guys saved my ass on the shore south of Solnichniy. They got rid of a zombie, bandaged me and gave me a can of peaches and a bottle of water, as well as other precious objects. Then they ran north. One of the fellows' name was YOUEDITOR (as seen on the inscreen chat), he invited me to add him on Steam but I couldn't find him. He had a rifle and a cowboy hat. To this guy: If you read this forum send me a message (please write the objects you gave me so I can identify you), and thanks a lot for the help today.

We don't see them sniping in the video. For all we know they could be on the roof to observe or to orient themselves. Unless you saw them sniping beforehand and that wasn't captured on tape.
-
That's the karma in action for sniping people.
-
What about pricing? Any figure on that?
-
Actually, I like the tetris system too. But the biggest issue now is the random shuffling of items after logoff, which may cause you losing objects bigger than 1 slot. This is why I recommend you to organize your backpacks by placing larger items first and then filling the gaps with smaller items.

Looking for a specific person in DayZ
Robert Neville replied to Robert Neville's topic in General Discussion
One does not need to read it all; one could simply look for his/her in-game name, now and then. A text search takes only a few seconds. -
Looking for a specific person in DayZ
Robert Neville replied to Robert Neville's topic in General Discussion
More like a bulletin board for survivors, the ones you find in any disaster site. Do anything of you know these two guys? They said they roam the coast, helping survivors. I was with a black female character called Adrian, she said it was her first day in DayZ, but she managed to find a green backpack somehow. -
Hey Aggathor, I was wondering something. You run out of breath after 30 secs, which slows you down when running. Best way to regenerate breath is to sit down. How long does it take to fully regenerate breath when sitting down, compared to standing and walking?
