Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
Killawife replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
Its just how it is now. Its been different before but caused some issues. Its way better than No zombies. In the end it will most likely be thousands of zombies in every town, super aggressive and able to bite an arm off and eat players that are KOS:ing. -
I'm a guy with a 1000 post on this forum, you have this and the previous one. Thats about it.

Hicks has specifically stated that they do not spawn. He should know as the lead developer of the game. I aslo believed earlier that they were just rare, especially after finding an AK101 mag but it turned out it was wrong.
-
Lol! wtf dude? I thought you were asking for help and it turns out you are just a fucking douche? I ALSO bought the game when it was released and has spent 2100 hours on it already, so without a doubt, BEST 20 bucks spent on a game ever.
-
Lol! You could have saved a lot of time by just googling "dayz sa m4 spawn" adn gotten the info right away. its not like 0.59 hasn't been out for quite some time.

Player stats shouldn't show players killed
Killawife replied to WilliamTheConqueror's topic in General Discussion
People play this game differently, some people play it as a survivalist game and others as a PVP shooter. If you don't want a killcounter in the game, don't look at it. As a whole, it is not really a big thing, made a big thing by some whiners. Let it go and be happy about the new renderer instead. -
Nobody here has anything to do with your ban. If you got banend from a private server, talk to the server owner. if you got global banned, talk to BEC. Nobody gets banned for no reason though so stop being a lying crybaby about it.

All these three suggestions are things that are almost already in the game but not quite but could probably be implenmeted with an hour of programming. - Breathing: As it is now you can only hold your breath by aiming down the sight and theres no sound or effect when doing so. I suggest that holding your breath should be applicable elsewhere. When swimming for example, enabling diving, or more importantly when sneaking or hiding. Right now you can hear someones breathing from 10-15 metres away and that just isnt realistic but thats what we got. However if I am being chased i would like an option for me to, when quickly ducking away, hold my breath for a little bit, removing the noise so my would-be assassins dont hear me and run past instead. - Scope repair: Scopes often spawn as damaged making them a completely useless spawn as they are of no use(hunting scopes excepted). Why not make it so you can repair a damaged or badly damaged scope to worn status using the weapon cleaning kit. it would make damaged scopes AND weapon cleaning kits desired items. - Molotov cocktails: I actually saw these in .....another game where they were simple but effective. Dayz already has everyhting needed for crafting and item implementation. Theres alcohol and gasoline, glass flasks(theres supposed to be Vodka too, whatever happened to that?), rags and matches. Nothing else is needed. As a placeholder the grenade function could be used, only without the timed explosion. It would ofcourse be nice with fire effects and stuff but not really nessecary right now. An easily craftable explosive is all that I want.

Do Zombies Dream Of A Good Nights Sleep? (Zombie feedback)
Killawife replied to SmashT's topic in General Discussion
There are quite a lot of infected at high value plces like Myshkino, Pavlovo, NWAF, zeleno, Vybor etc. They dont seem to respawn when they die properly though so that might be why people dont find them. They do need to be 0.55-typoe dangerous though as most people dont even care about them now and I cant even remember when i died from one last. -
Dayz and 7dtd are quite different and have nothing in common but survival. I would just wait if I were you. When the new renderes been worked on for a bit the game will most likely run great on our computers. Give it six months or so. Right now is not the best time to start playing Dayz as I expect bugs aplenty to come.

With a beast of a computer you might see a stable 30 fps in cities but with a normal high-end computer(4790k, 79070) it will sometimes drop to 15 fps when the server gets busy. You might be able to play fallout 4 on ultra in 4k but his isnt a finished game so theres no optimization being made yet. The new renderer will mostly make things better and when it is finalyl optimized the game will run fine. As of now there is not a lot you can do. There are a few things that make a difference though. Playing without edge smoothing makes the game look like crap but gives quite a boost. Also, lowering the range you can actually see things also gives a few fps. as does playing with the new ui. I cant stand playing the game with these things though as it looks so bland and H1Z1:ish. Heres a few guides on what you can do: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=dayz+graphics+settings

I alt-tab out of the game ten-twenty times every day and occasionally the game will crash, maybe once in a fifty times. It has never killed me though so not sure what is going on there, The new ui is just a placeholder right now and bound to change. Use the old ui instead, its much better in every regard.
-
I'd like to see vehicles become more stable and user-friendly. I'd also like to be able to see my fps, ping and latency with a single button click built into the game. Shouldnt be to hard as the info already exists. And an auto run feature. Also the ability to spraypaint other items besides guns and helmets like clothes, boxes. backpacks and other stuff. And a return to 0.55 zombies. Mad, fast, hard-hitting monsters that feast on the flesh of men.

I fell into the same old trap. I had a low-geared character with a pump action shotgun as my only weapon. I go into cherno and meet a newspawn who asks for food and a knife to open it which i give to him. As we are talking a guy runs up and starts shooting. I calm him down with my shotty but as he drops another appears and hits me so i blast him point blank and he drops. I go unconcious but have some hopes that the newspawn will help me when he starts talking. I quickly realize he was just the bait and those two were his friends. I then die. And they were french as well which added insult. I then meet one of them at Polana when I respawn there but decide to let him go.

How would the no of copies sold affect the number of maps developed? The team is still the same size and they are still working on finishing the game as they have for some time now. Other maps will surely appear as mods for the game later.

Heres a quite fun way to do it: http://dawnbreakerg Thatamihttp://dawnbreakergaming.com/dayz-hub/dice/ng.com/dayz-hub/dice/

Yes, you can hear other people breathe if they have been running or doing other things. I believe the radius of the sound is like 5-10 metres or so but it doesnt seem that height is properly calculated as you can hear people on several floors up in a house. Normally the sound of you running masks it but in a sneaky peaky scenario this could be important. Sounds aren't really working well right now as some things are heard way too much and others not at all.

Whats the best way or place to find vss
Killawife replied to kirky-uk's topic in New Player Discussion
Ive found one. On a guy I shot. So thats my best place to find them. -
I did my first KoS since the early dayz tonight. I felt bad about it though so I apologized and left all the guys gear. He was climbing a chimney in Cherno with a scoped Whinnie on his back so probably up to no good but still......
-
I found a heli crash in kamenka, I had no idea they actually spawned there. Got me an Ump but no mag for it :/ Other than that ive had a few good days where ive gotten into gunfights and survived, surprisingly enough. The funiest ones where in the school in cherno and the school in elektro on the same night with two different characters! And both times both me and my assailant got wounded but survived. Or rather, I survived and the cherno guy got murdered by some guys a few minutes after. I tried to avenge him but my trumpet didnt even make a dent so i ran and hid instead.
-
I would like to see a more prolonged death of the character and this would fit in nicely. Unconcious is boring as you cant talk or do anything and it would be better if it was used if you are knocked unconcious and not dying from it. You die way too easy in this game. If there was a greater chance you could be revived more people would stay on their corpses hoping to be rescued instead of respawning the second they go unconcious. I usually wait til Im dead.
-
Sometimes I wonder if this game wouldn't be better if they removed all the players and put zombies in instead.
-
Glad to see that insta-death on the police stairs is still a thing
Killawife replied to The Daryl Dixon's topic in General Discussion
It used to happen all the time then it went away. Now it happens once in a while. Its annoying when you are geared and die from nothing. It has nothing to do with ping. Desync doesn't happen because of bad ping. -
Quite a funny thing happened y-day. I logged in near cherno with a geared character adn went into town as I heard gunfire there. I went around the town lookign for culprits and finally found them in the police station area. I made my way to the docks TEC building roof and checked out the area. I hear shots and see a guy sitting on a catwalk outside and it looks like he just shot someone. I aim my scoped blaze and got his skull in my crosshairs when I press the trigger and it goes "CLICK!". He bolted away adn i go prone. I check my gear and it seems the blaze wasn't loaded and i didn't have any Ammo, lol! I write in chat "If I had ammo you'd be dead" and log out.

Well they do look pretty special, nothing like an ak, ump, svd or aug. It was a 100 metres away though but I'm pretty sure. The sound was m4 non-silenced and as far as i know the only other gun that sounds like it right now is the Aug. It was on a public server as well, don't remember which one, just the character.
