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.

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.

Yes, the directional audio of infected is not working. It used to, then they broke it.

Has anyone encountered this? The text chat opens and types a lot of Y's. I have my chat bound to it. It happend maybe once in ten restarts. Just started for no reason.

I found two stacks of 40 rounds yesterday. Good thing I have a Mosin :/ Found a 1911 mag AND an eastern suppressor on the same char. No netting yet and no assault vests. I saw a guy with an M4 in Cherno the other day also. But he was going through ammo like theres no tomorrow so not sure it was legit. He must've used 4 mags while I was watching. Or two double ones.

As long as sounds play when they are supposed to I'm fine with them as they are. When a gun fires 100 m away I want it to sound like the gun is fired 100 metres away, not right next to you or more often than not, not making any sound. When a sound is played like birds flying up scared I want them to do so for a reason. When a chain link fence makes a noise it better be because someone just went over one nearby. Also, the ambient sounds of the forest and the waves are so damn loud. They are nice and ambient and all but take it down a notch or make it adjustable.

I have only once met a nice french dayz player. And it was a girl. All the others (many) have been douches.

Played today with a working mic and it made some difference, I believe. First a guy shot me on top of teh policestation in cherno but cuffed me and bandaged me. We talked and he relesed the cuffs AND gave me a loaded Cr75. I was amazed. Sadly we only got to the hopsital when we were assaulted and I got shot. Went unconcious but never woke up :( Second I met a guy in Kamyshovo, he had a gun and so did I but I greeted him adn we talked briefly then went our separate ways. In Elektro there was no talking though. Snipers killed people on the hospital roof and they were trying to get to their gear. I watched the show and only shot one guy when he came near me with one of my two shotgun shells. But I did notice something strange that I haven't seen before. When someone goes up the stairwell, you can see their shadow on the wall opposite of the stairwell, towards the square. Pretty weird.

Its poorly optimized as of yet. It will probably be better once the renderer is released but we dont know yet. Wait and see.

I think its a good idea too, mainly because a torch is easily craftable and more options to keep the infected at bay is always nice. Things need to be flammable though, houses, bushes, corpses etc.

Ive tried running at low resolutions too earlier but since everythig becomes super-ugly I decided against it. Frames DO become better though and the game runs more fluid. You still get slow-downs when you move into a loot-bubble and when other players are near.

Try using an older driver. I encountered a similar problem a while ago but it went away with using Catalyst 14.12

No. Your computer isnt up to the task. You need a new cpu and a proper graphics card.

Honestly? By the time its released I'll probably be playing something else. I have great fun in Dayz Sa and understand the development process is hard but its taking way too long and its taking its toll on the players. When I started playing you could have fun random encounters every day. Something really exciting happened almost every time you played and people were really up to trying new things and doing stuff. Now, Its just KoS, all the fucking time. And that gets boring really fast. I can partly understand that people are bored and cant think of anything else to do but kill other players and frankly I dont see this ever going away. It doesnt really matter how many cars, helis, new enterable buildings and other stuff comes around. They just become a short time novelty thing and then its back to the killing. The game might change but the players most likely won't.

I tried that but it didnt work. I reinstalled my soundcard and it seems to work now.

I think I found out why people have been so unresponsive to me lately. It seems my Mic isn't working in Dayz. I changed my headset to Headphones with a loose mic and it works in Teamspeak and in my sound controller but not in Dayz. Weird. Hope my Modmic turns up on monday so I can get it working. Today was a sad day. First I had a geared player get one shot outside Elektro by someone, full health, plate carrier and still scwupp!, unconcious, then killed by the assailant, then I got punched out by a newspawn even though I hit him twice with my axe first. Then I got killed in the almost exact same spot by two very well-geared guys who just had to shoot me even though I was an evident non-threat. Then I cuffed a guy looting a bus. I talked to him for a bit via text but then he turned ugly so I knocked him out and left him. I didnt have any keys for the cuffs anyways.

It actually looks like a nice FPS game.

Is this really a problem? I've been kicked once by a server admin and twice by Battleeye in 1500 hours.

I had a weird night. First I met a guy at zelno while I was popping zeds. He said "we can be friends, we dont have to kill eachother" then he started shooting. I decided he needed to die but got stuck on the dead zeds and killed. I didnt mind as my guy was fully geared and useless. As I respawned I was ataacked bu a puncher. I ran around and teased him for a bit but he kept on. I told him he could have my mosin if he stopped puncing but he didnt. I went inot the sea for a bit and got me a cup of tea. When i got back he was still there. We danced for a while adn i told him that if he just said " I'm a retard sitting in my chair drooling and wanking" I would give him my gear. But he didnt so i left. Then I got shot a Kamy policestation by someone who wasnt there. All the doors were closed on the second floor but still I got shot as soon as I got up there. Not from above. Maybe through a door. Anyways, I changed servers as my frames were hopeless on Grumys and had a medium-geared character in upper Berezino. I met a guy and talked to him then gave him a 1911 and a rak mag. Later I meet another guy so I give him a hunting scope and get some food. I then meet a girl wearing a pink raincoat and some other guy following her. I watch them for a bit through my scope but they seem to talk and then move on. I get to Kamy and theres people in the policestation. I watch them for a while but nobodys killing anyone so I move on. I get to Elektro and all is quiet so I log out.

Yes its happened to me. Usually you can sort it out by going somewhere else and dropping the stuff and picking it up again, or relogging. But Ive had a situation once where I had to throw away a plate carrier vest as there was ammo in it that couldnt be used, I couldnt attach a holster to it and items in it couldnt be used by the hotbar. Im sure the ammo made it so as it worked fine before.

I killed a guy at the NWAF y-day. I was being chased by a zed and didnt want to shoot so I led him into one of the steel hangars by the quonset hut. To my surprise a guy sits in the corner and starts shooting so i have to mow him down. Dunno how i survived but all my clothes and vest are ruined now :/
