Even with references it's not a reputable source. As I stated, anyone and I mean anyone can write on Wikipedia. Try to use Wikipedia on an educational paper. The teachers would give you an "F".

I didn't even bother to read what you wrote. Let me tell you why. Wikipedia is a not reputable source. Any college student knows that anyone can go on there and post whatever they want. If your going to make an argument first find a reputable source. Second do your due diligence and research the subject matter. Look at developers posts and use them as evidence to support your claim. Good day. Also if you don't like how development is going. Then wait and play beta or release. Or don't play at all.

You should do a bit of searching on the forums and reddit. To answer your question. Yes they are! :D http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/2fe0h3/older_cities_will_be_upgraded_when_the_new_ones/

I like your idea. I think later on they might or might not added it. But it would be nice to have even a simple set of tools to customize your player to make them unique. Like changing face features, height, body features, etc...

That's weird. It's only maintenance. Nothing should have changed. Did you try to switch servers and see if it still happens? It might be server lag or dsync.

I just want to say it's an on-going fix. The developers said so. Also the first steps in addressing this issue is actually in the experimental build 0.49. If you do some searching and reading you'll see that they have started the initial implementation of 64-bit servers. Also added a new zombie AI, zombies clipping, etc...Search and look up your topic first then make a post. :) Lastly like stated above, use melee weapons for now, until the in-progress zombies are finished. Have fun!

I wasn't going to reply to your thread, but this post got me going. As a coder/programmer you think 10 months is a lot of time to develop a game of this magnitude? Don't make me laugh. This game came out last year in December and they've come a long way. I'm not fan boying, but you have to realize and do the research before you spout nonsense. Coding takes time and lots of it. There are many stages to coding. Design, code, implementation, bug identification, debuging, etc...There is a lot of things that are going on behind the scenes that you as a player don't see. It's a lot of hard work and long hours to give you what you see today. So please do your due diligence and research before you speak. My 2 cents.

I think you misread my post. I said persistence will be on all servers in 0.49 as stated in the status report. Which is still in experimental. We are in 0.48 and persistence is only on a few servers.

Have you tried completely uninstalling Dayz SA and re-installing it? I would suggest you do so. Even erase everything and re-download Dayz SA and re-install. Good Luck. Also make sure you aren't trying to play stable on experimental or experimental on stable. Could be the issue too.

Just a little input to clear your suggestion. Dayz SA will in no shape or form go towards a traditional skill/profession mmo. Rocket has already stated in an interview that he wants the game to be based on gear and not kill collecting, leveling, etc...He basically stated that how you level up in Dayz SA is getting better gear and loot. So sorry it won't happen. Honestly I like Dayz SA the way it is. It's different from all other MMOs and it's unique. If they add classes, jobs, professions, etc...it'll ruing the Dayz experience. My 2 cents.

Although your suggestions are good. Many people have posted the exact same thing and the bugs you found are in the devhub. Just a heads up. But yes there are lots of problems and some yet to be implemented features. Like many people say it is in "Alpha." So just be patient and wait for beta or release. If you think of a suggestion look it up and see if people posted the same thing if not then make a new thread and share away. Have fun with Dayz SA!

No it depends on what server your on. For patch 0.48 persistence isn't on all servers. Only a select few has it enabled. When patch 0.49 is out of experimental and into stable is when we'll see persistence across all servers. So right now on 0.48 some servers are without persistence and the body and loot will disappear. On persistence servers they shouldn't.

It's possible, but to have that kind of attachment to the existing guns would require new gun models or simpler a new gun attachment. Either way it'll be a bit of work for it to happen. It would be awesome to do.

I agree with them completely. Ask yourself some questions and I'll give you some things to think about: 1. When you were playing with them and they got banned were you right there watching them play on their computers? 2. It's also possible that they were hacking before they were playing with you and BE had a ban wave and it caught up to them? 2. BE and other anti-hack programs and software is not known to ban randomly. 3. For any player to get banned they have to do something to even make the anit-hack system flag their account. 4. What I'm trying to say is if they did nothing wrong then there is no reason to ban them. So they wouldn't of gotten banned. 5. You never know how someone plays and what they do. People are cunning and you never know. 6. Lastly like Mystic Bagel said sometime people use very subtle hacks and not the obvious ones. So even if you play with them you can't tell. The percentage is high that your friends use hacks at one time or the other. There is a very very low chance to get banned out of no where. If they hacked I hope they learned there lesson and don't use them anymore. If they didn't good luck on proving and getting there accounts unbanned.

I like his idea, but the only effective place to put it is where the scope would go on a gun. So that would be the only issue. I think it'll just be easier if they just implement a way to double wield per Se certain items with what's currently in your hand. I think that would be using the existing system and just building on top of it. My 2 cents.

It should be fixed or partially fixed next patch in 0.49. As they are implementing a lot of zombie stuff. Read the weekly status report.

Read the status report. They stated they are implementing 64-bit servers. Once they get those in they'll be able to increase the number of zombies and more. Search for it and look for the info.

Think about it logically. The more people use hacks now the more security vulnerabilities is found and patched. Not only that, but they tend to wait and let many people hack to gather data then roll out waves of bans. It'll always be an ongoing issues, but I'm sure they have hacking as a high priority and is constantly working with battle eye.

One thing is weird/fishy. I don't think you guys switched servers at all. To my knowledge once you leave a server and join another, in no way shape or form can a hacker know which server you went to. The only way is if your friends on steam and they join you. You guys probably logged off the server and clicked play again and logged back into the same server. But I do hope they patch the game up so there are less hackers.

First and foremost you should really use the search box. As there are lots of topics about this and fixes for them. Now that's said go to this website and follow the instructions. http://www.dayztv.com/standalone/dayz-performance-guide-crash-fix/

I explain it clearer. You have 32-bit and 64-bit computers/servers. Before they had 32-bit servers which limited there ram or memory capacity to around 3 GB. Now with the 64-bit servers they can have up to 16 Exabytes of ram. Of course they won't have that much, but they'll probably have around 64-128 GB of ram as of now. No what does that translate to? - Capability to increase player per server to more than 40. Possibly the 150 Rocket talked about. - Capability to increase AI on both Zombie and Animals. - Capability to increase Zombie Spawns/Numbers. - And the list goes on. Basically it lets the developers add more things to the game and at the same time the server will be able to keep up and stay optimize so you don't have lag/dsync. Hope this answers your question. :)

In a sense it's a good idea and a bad one. To list a few reasons why it's bad: - It will impact the server even more if it is added to the AI. - It will cause a conflict with the zombies being attracted to survivors and corpses. They'll have to design a new AI system to handle it. - Have items degrade over time as the zombie eats will definitely take a lot of server resources. And dsync and lag will be a big issue. Now I think it's a good idea, but I think about it in a simple and basic way. I think if they do implement this it should just be an animation. For example if zombie knocks down survivor, then start eating survivor and kill. This way it takes the existing system and just adds a couple of animations. And it wouldn't require the zombie to look for corpses as it already is by one. Nothing else would be needed in my opinion. Just my 2 cents. :) Yes they are infected, but Rocket or any of his team hasn't given a back story as of what caused it or what the infected eat. As far as we know the zombies or "infected" attack the survivors only. And just in patch 0.48 they attack wild life. One can assume the only reason they attack survivors and wild life is to eat them. That's why people make the link. Now we won't know for sure until Rocket implements it into the game via in-game items like books.

20 fps isn't to bad. Now lag on the other hand could be many things. Your internet, the host internet, the server, the game, the central hive. Try to play low ping servers. You should have less lag. Also it's fine to quit Dayz. You bought it so you can play and quit anytime you want. Lol

Not sure why your having issues. Most likely it's the game as it's still in Alpha. But one other thing you can try is using sweetfx. Use it as a separate render. Also what's your setting in-game. Did you try to disable all anti-aliasing? And set all settings on low?

What you need to do is take a break. It seems like your playing Dayz to much. Also I would suggest you be more vigilant and scout an area before you enter. Lastly if you have friends or find people here on the forums to play with it's less likely people would engage you.
