I think this showcases one of the many reasons why people play Dayz. It seems like your group has fun. Mine does too. Keep having fun and keep supporting Dayz. :)

Yea I guess I would consider myself lucky. I also don't go to pvp rooms much. As hackers tend to go to those. And I've seen many hacker videos on the forums. Every game and I mean every game has hackers! It just takes time to patch them and make them obsolete. I know many people say this, but the game is in alpha and lots of bugs are exploited to make hacks. Developers have stated that alpha is a gem because they get people using hacks now, so later they can patch up the game more and more and secure it so less and less hacks are possible. And like I've stated from my personal experience. I was in a full room and Battle Eye actually caught, kicked, and banned a hacker. So they definitely are working on it. I agree. Let the hackers use there hacks. Once the developers gets a hold of the hacks. They'll dissect them and see how they work. Once that's done they'll make even better hack detection, prevention, and intervention. :)

Where in my post did I say to get rid of military gear? Lol I just said I prefer there be more civilian gear than military. I also stated that it should be hard to get military gear. I.e. rarer or harder to get via army zombies like I stated.

Haha good thing you didn't give in or he would of healed you and did weird kinky things to you....dang hackers need to stop. But you took it pretty well. LOL

I like some of your ideas. But for some I'm half and half on. I prefer Dayz to be less militarize and more civilian. More focus on the civilian clothing like you stated such as belts, fanny packs, necklaces, etc...As for military items they should be at bases where there is a heap load of army zombies making it harder to get military items. My 2 cents. Also I really like your idea on the belts. I'm sure they'll have it in the future.

Have you tried re-installing Dayz? Also make sure you have the latest drivers. Have you also tried lowering the settings and sees if it reduces the lag and crashes? Dayz is diffrent from bf3 and tomb raider. It's an unfinished game with unfinished rendering and such which causes the game to not be optimized. If you are having FPS issues you can go to the link below. And it should help you get better gameplay/fps. It has for me. :) http://www.dayztv.com/standalone/dayz-performance-guide-crash-fix/ I would suggest re-installing also. It seems like windows isn't able to verify information about the dayz application or has an issue accessing dayz info. Here is a couple of links with similar issues. I would advise googling before posting btw. :P http://forums.civfanatics.com/archive/index.php/t-440950.html http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/526010/windows-has-recovered/ http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f59/bf3-isnt-working-and-is-stupid-623965.html So in conclusion it could be: - The game itself - not likely - Outdated drivers - probably - Cracked version - maybe - Using hacks - maybe - Hard Drive Issues - probably First of all I would re-install the game and make sure all your drivers are up to date and don't have any issues. If you are hacking, trying a crack version, or to modify it in anyway then we can't help you. If not then do what I stated above and see if it helps. Good luck.

Since they are going to introduce more wild life. I'm sure they also planned to have them in there natural habitats. I.e A forest. I think once they hone and polish hunting and fishing we'll see more ponds, forests, and maybe even ocean fishing. Maybe even sharks! Lol

I think it'll get better once they roll out the 64-bit servers and clients. On both sides we are limited to 2 gb of memory. Not much they can do until they get those out first. IMO. Yea like I stated, it's in part the server and in part the coding. It's incomplete on both sides as in the 64bit servers and the items I listed in my earlier post. They are aware of it as I've looked at numerous reports in the dev hub. In time hopefully they can fix it. :)

Haha I don't know. But it still works, you just have to change your control key binds. :)

They are working in conjunction with battle eye to improve security and cheat detection. There was an article from a dev stating that most public hacks are patched or prevented in the code, but the ones that are hard to stop are the private ones. There isn't an ETA as to when they'll push out more security fixes, but in time I'm sure they'll fix it. :) Btw in my experience I haven't met or seen a hacker in person. But I have seen one get kicked and banned by battle eye. :D

Rocket has stated that in the future he wants to maximize the use of the physics system. For example instead of using the action menu to open doors you actually have to grab the door nob and push forward. Something along those lines. But you never know.

I highly doubt it. I.e. the weapon system is a good indicator. Not all scopes, ammo, etc are universal. So tires, air filters, oil, etc won't be either. But we'll find out sooner or later.

I hope they take off the persistent helicopters. Make it all dynamic. It'll make Dayz more immersive. It'll also make it so people actually have to go look and find a crash site then knowing where it is and gearing up. Might be why they took the loot off the persistent ones. You never know.

Yes it will be. Rocket has stated that once they shift the player controls and movements to the full physics system, then they will implement the dragging of bodies.

Read the latest status report. They are working on duping and such. http://t.co/m5UPH61msU

It's like that now, but when they start to implement more pve features it'll force people to work together. For instance increased zombies, smarter zombies, base building, vehicles, etc...For now there is KOS, but it'll improve over time. But in my experience I've never ran into KOS. Most people I meet are nice and I help them with food and water and vice versa. Try to go into servers that says pve or doesn't have pvp in the servername. Also if they are broadcasting berizino then get out of the server...

You never know. Maybe they'll let you shoot down crows in the future and make black feathered arrows. Lol

If you search in the feedback system. You'll see that people are reporting it all the time. Go look at it and vote up some of them. If you find a building or places like that report it and let the devs know. It's hard to debug and fix a problem if they don't know which buildings and such it happens too. One building reported that it happens to is the police station. One of the devs replied they'll fix it. So report away...

There is still issues with looting. Sometimes you can loot sometimes you can't. But like Zarniwoop said. There's the trick of equipping his backpack, then throwing it back on the ground. It should in a sense refresh. And be able to see the contents of the backpack. But then again the player could of had nothing in the backpack to begin with too. 0_0 lol

I'm sure they'll implement motorcycle crashes in the future. But more than likely motorcycle helmets is a prelude to the motorcycle vehicle to be released way later on. Or the bicycle. :)

At the moment there is not much of a difference. They are still working on server optimizations and 64 bit servers. Once they have that done, they can then implement ballistics, bullet trajectory, weapon statistics, etc... They still have issues with the scopes. One instance is if it's raining and you look through the scope you see no rain. There's lots of bugs and yet to be implemented items. But if you feel the need for it to be fixed, report it in the feedback link on the dayz website.

I believe this issue partially depends on the server your on. It is in part the coding as they are still working on the navmesh, netcode, AI, new animations, and collision detection. But I personally never encountered this issue and I have 34 hours of game time. Try to stay to low ping servers and servers that have a low dsync. If your on a server with high ping or high dysnc it could cause invisible zombies or zombies that attack from far away.

Like Sutinen said. Get some paper in-game and a pen then just keep a tally of how many you kill. In the future they'll improve on it, but it works. Hopefully they'll implement a diary of some sort where you can keep track of it yourself. More realistic. Also NO! No counters or anything. It's a realistic survival game. If you die in real life you don't have a log of how you died or know why you died. Your dead...LOL It's frustrating not knowing, but that's what makes Dayz, Dayz.

Go to your settings and look at your controls. Look for the movement key binds and just bind the run control to what you like. I still have mine set to double tap 'w' to run. Still works on 0.48.

Rocket already stated before that vehicles will be "end game" material. Vehicles will definitely need multiple parts to get it working. Once you get it working it will take quite a bit to maintain it. But do keep in mind that previously Rocket has stated that vehicles will be one of the last things implemented. I'm not sure if the road map changed, but I believe next patch will lay the foundation or be the initial implementation of vehicles, but vehicles themselves won't be implemented. But I could be wrong. At the most I can only see them implementing bicycles.
