    My game is really choppy and glitchy...

    I turned post-processing completely off and the really huge fps loss episodes stopped. still gets choppy though, in cities, and outside of the cities, but not grinding to a halt is a big step forward.

    So I finally found a tent... any tips?

    you either risk losing a TON of stuff by leaving it somewhere, or you carry it and lose a TON of pack storage space. ooo, where can I get one? :-p just trade it for something, and get another one when persistence is trustworthy. or park the character with the tent and just play the other until persistence is trustworthy.
  3. prettymuch nothing in this game is an intended feature. just placeholders and glitches. and they aren't zombies - they're really ugly wizards.

    How to survive

    get a coat or stay out of the rain go where the food is everywhere (I call it chernarus) don't use a gun on zombies, unless you want lots more zombies to fight avoid people armed better than you are
  5. making them harder should involve making them hit harder or something, not defy physics.

    Dayz Performance

    in the bios I think you should be able to disable the on-board video, and then everything would default to the nvidia.

    1st person dying breed

    relax, people. some people like playing one way, some like it the other way. I play both. what we lose if we lose hardcore is two games for the price of one.

    1st person dying breed

    I hope hardcore doesn't die out - it's nice to run two characters. my reg is for lootwhoring and my hc is for roleplaying.

    Looking for someone to lend me a Hacksaw

    I have one. I'm way over in the west though. had 2 but I dropped one to carry more boar steaks. :-p
  10. the people shooting bambis on the beach would still shoot bambis on the beach.

    Homemade phosgene gas grenade

    Resolution problem

    to set your resolution, first change your interface resolution. then all your proper resolutions will show up as options for the game resolution. why? I dunno.

    What ever happened to jumping?

    if you remapped your movement (like to the arrow keys), you can't jump over things or look at your inventory while running. if you go back to wasd you'll be able to jump etc..

    My last 20 minutes in Dayz.

    dunno about other melee weapons, but with an axe I prettymuch aim for the heart and hit more often than not. only time I have trouble is when there's desync - then no amount of aiming will help. as for player encounters, the last one I had followed me after I gave him some gear (jacket, can opener, extra rags, etc). didn't do anything aggressive, just followed. the one before that ran away immediately.

    Climbed ladder, character reset

    when you log back in, your character apparently lets go of the ladder and falls to his death. they could fix stuff like that, but they're busy developing butter as food loot (bread to come 36 patches after that).

    Increase Chernarus size with the new engine.

    I'd LOVE a much much larger map, with lots of varying terrain to explore. most of the man-made resources could still be concentrated in towns and cities and on the coast and very very rare in the deep wilderness areas, forcing people to hunt or pack food to get to the middle of nowhere where the tent/base is hidden. I'd like it to take perhaps days to cross the map on foot, making tents actually useful and practical and making bad planning dangerous. I take full advantage of being able to sprint for hours without any ill effects, but I can't wait til that ability's gone. I want scale. I want journeys to be journeys. I want the woods to be so vast that trading for meat is a thing in parts of the map. I want a map big enough that everyone can't hear me chew, for fuck's sake. :-p

    The new running animation, Why?

    fat guys don't run. take it from a fat guy.

    Jumping Server Cheating and Spawning Characters

    yeah, finding berries is hard.

    how do i determine what server i should go to

    things I look for: 1. RESET WARNINGS or the longest possible time between resets 2. low enough ping (less than 150) 3. servers not named anything like 'squeaker's house of kos' 4. a time of day that won't have the sun pissing me off the entire way across the map

    FPS and Texture Drop

    since reverting to .48 (the only real cure) isn't an option, completely close down game and start it back up. fixes it for a while.
  21. been having freezes, followed by GREAT 1 fps gameplay, since .49. usually just shutting down the game and has been enough to fix it. never had to reboot the pc.

    What happened with the Yellow Chain?

    better question is why does the message say 'server hasn't recieved any messages for 30 seconds' when it hung up on you 5 or 10 minutes ago.

    Any point of 2 drum mags?

    if you're ever in a position where 75 rounds isn't enough, you made some BAD decisions leading to that moment.
  24. Red_Ensign

    Well, I combat logged.

    killing someone who's running away and has no interest in fighting is so manly. congrats on having a pair.
  25. Red_Ensign

    game freezes then gets blocky

    yeah happens all the time to me since 49. completely shut down the game, and it'll be good again. just switching servers isn't enough.
