Hi guys, so I have a question/concern based on what some friends told me. Is It true that they are done updating dayz, or is this only a rumor? I was told that since Rocket is leaving at the end of the year, the team was just gonna call it quits on the project. The dev team is awesome and have been doing great, so I didn't believe it when I heard it. There is still a lot more work to do in game, so I hope its not true. Anyway, any news or thoughts on whether this rumor is true or, well, just a rumor, please post below. Thanks!

How do I get the url that has the image brackets? In photobucket I went to my bucket, clicked on the pic I wanted, copied the url into here, and got the error message.

I have encountered the several foot fall killing me many a time, however I have yet to be catapulted off of a building. I would think this would have been fixed by now.

The first one is how many frames your GPU is anticipating and getting ready to show on the screen. the 2nd one is how many ahead it is putting on the screen at once. I know your 2nd one is correct but idk what the 1st one is supposed to be.

Mostly great ideas. Only have 2 things to say. 1: We don't need nearly that many military vehicles. Those should be rare, and only more common things such as Humvee's, trucks, etc. We don't need tanks and BTR's in-game. You wouldn't find any of those laying around in real zombie apocalypse. 2: I think there should be several different types of ATV's. 4 wheelers, 3 wheelers, off-road bikes, etc. All I saw on the list was standard 4 wheeler.

Good :) . I had another guy who didn't believe me so I tried posting a screenshot to prove it, but its way harder then it should be to upload a pic to here. Im honestly surprised it runs as good as it does, it was kind of bad for a little while but I asked around on here for best setting and took what people said and apparently found the perfect settings, because technically I shouldn't be able to run it.

well, the 40 to 50 fps is in forests and smaller towns, going into Cherno I drop to 25-30ish, but its still perfectly playable.

I agree that there should be several kinds of bows and several kinds of arrows. I also think that you should be able to find a normal bow (non-crafted one) in police stations or hunting shops once they are implemented. I also would like to add to your arrow list a stone arrowhead, this was the most common one used by Indians and other primitive peoples and would be somewhat easy to craft.

I can run it on Intel HD 4400 integrated graphics on my laptop on medium/some high settings and get around 40 fps, so you should be perfectly fine.

Hi guys, so I have a question or 2 about the new tents. 1: Whats the point of them if the stuff inside goes away after a server reset? 2: can you go inside of them, and shoot or eat or do anything from inside? 3: where do they spawn and how rare are they? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

1: can you shoot out of it when inside? 2: will the stuff inside and the tent stay after server reset? 3: how much space does it take up to carry in your inventory? Thanks

Didn't say I stopped :) . Ill take as many guns as I can get

More guns the better, I also think they should add the Mossberg 500 shotgun and the FN Scar.

I found my dxdiag info so ill copy and paste that: System Information ------------------ Time of this report: 7/29/2014, 15:40:50 Machine name: DREWS_LAPTOP Operating System: Windows 8.1 64-bit (6.3, Build 9600) (9600.winblue_gdr.140330-1035) Language: English (Regional Setting: English) System Manufacturer: Dell Inc.

Im not going to make an account on photobucket just for this. I took a screenshot in Balota and I was getting 44 fps shown by FRAPS in the pic. I also had the screenshot from one of my antivirus/cleaning tools which shows my system specs, which are exactly what I said earlier. Sorry I cant show proof, but im not trolling.

I agree, however the ATLAS bipod would not go on the mosin in real life, as its designed to mount to a rail. The mosin doesn't have a tactical rail on the bottom. However, I do think they should add a normal bipod that mounts to a gun without a rail (such as mosin) because I agree with your logic about the sniper needing a bipod.

uhh...how do I post the screenshots? I took them both and have them but cant figure out how to upload them.

Well, to answer your question, yes, it will get better once we hit beta or even before as more optimization is made. That computer shouldn't be running it chunky though. I run it on med-high settings on my $400 laptop fine. Its specs are CPU: Intel core i3 4010U 1.7Ghz GPU: Intel HD 4400 RAM: 6 GB Screen: 1366x768 Try messing with your settings a bit. disable things such as anti-aliasing. Turn motion blur very low, but not off. Set your rendering resolution to your screens maximum, (for me it would be 1366x768, idk about yours.) Also put normal resolution at anywhere from 100% to 150%. Set objects, terrain etc. at medium or high. This helped mine and I can run it at 40-50 fps with med-high settings with the above specs.

I agree that in a busy area you should be "bombarded with zombies", however I disagree with them always tracking me. I think that if you make noise they should immediately become interested, and If you do something loud like fire a shot or something then every zombie within several miles should immediately start to walk/jog to the location, but not flat-out sprint. There should also be some in the forests, but not nearly as much as in cities. The amount that's in cities now should be in the forests, maybe some more then that, but then the cities should be around 15 on every street. I think if they made them always track you though, it would be too much like COD black ops. There would be no stealth element at all.

Several of his examples were legit. I know Dicks and Wal-mart both have tents, ive purchased from both. Most large stores that have pretty much everything such as wal-mart sell tents. I hope they eventually add outdoors shops in some of the bigger cities, such as Cherno or Novo or something. these outdoors shops would be like a real-world bass pro shops or cabela's, selling anything from guns to tents to camo clothing.

Listen, I know this is a much talked about topic but it needs to be done. instead of having 4 zombies in a town, we need 40. I understand we need more optimizations to be done first and the current zombies need to be fixed, but this needs to be a top priority. I don't want it to be COD black ops like, but it needs to be close. Especially the big cities need 5-10 on every street block, not 5-10 throughout the whole town and surrounding area. It needs to be actually possible to die from zombies, they are supposed to be the main focus of the game after all. Please post if you support this idea, and if not feel welcome to post criticism, keep it civil though. Thanks.

good idea, but would be nearly impossible to implement. people would constantly be hearing random sounds or would be completely silent or way to loud etc. It would never work properly.

Its a good idea, but it would be nearly impossible to add. you would constantly be getting random adrenaline rushes, and people sniping and such would get them too and it would never work properly. good idea, just impossible to implement into the video game world.

100% agree. Once the current zombies are fixed this needs to be #1 priority, extra fun stuff can wait but more zombies needs to be done.
