I just hope they will keep playing DayZ instead of invading us for zillionth time.

Personally, when speaking about postapo world with limited resources, I would rather bet my life on "everlasting" AK, then M4. Ofc what would also matter is what kind of ammo would be around for picking. In USA I guess I would stick with 5,56 rifle. Regarding patch notes, things are shaping nicely, I hope this list will be updated before this patch is released :-). Wish impatient players would rather wait for game to be atleast in beta stage.You have chosen to ignore Alpha version warnings, now you either deal with game being in alpha, or you wait several months, before it is closer to being finished. QQing about alpha being alpha will not help anybody.

I liked how in Witcher 2, you had proper holster for every sword you carried. Looked much more cool then if the swords were just glued to the back. Oh well, maybe down the road to the beta we might get rifle straps/slings.

If backpack can have straps, I sure hope that guns could get them too. Also machete could get it's "holster" and be hanged from belt, rather then on back.

I would be happy just for patch notes, to learn whats around the corner.

Where I can relate to OP is, that I get also slightly annoyed, when people talk trash at me, once they down me. Then again if there is voice chat, then there's gonna be trash talk. Same as with ability to write on paper, you will see all kind of rubbish :-). p.s. did anybody manage to talk to strangers via walkie talkie? That's my dream. That's perfectly ok to take a break and wait for more stuff to be added.....cars, maybe some base building, crazy diseases, generaly more stuff like clothing and weapons, crafting....gonna be good times!

Please do not judge the final state of game based on how it is now. Once we get loot to respawn regularly, it can be town down, so that you will not find that many of it as it is now after server restart. Devs also want to control very good items, such as military weapons, by the total numbers, so rest assured, there will not be tons of AK's or M4's in every barracks. If they pull it out well, you might get into the situation where only so many folks have assault rifles or such and you are forced to craft a spear or maybe a bow or something. Also once zombies are completed, their numbers upped A LOT, and once they respawn once folks leave the cleared area, this will also change the game noticeably. If zombies are plenty, if they do considerable damage and might infect you, you might feel some respect towards them again and know, that if you fire that shotgun of yours, the whole town will swarm you and you might get eaten. Just please DO NOT turn Dayz SA into a game, where you just can't find anything and have to eat grass and get water from licking moist of the stones. p.s. Also please do not forget that once private hives are allowed, you might as well get what you want. There surely will be crazy hardcore servers with zero loot or anything :-).

Because they were preying on the weak? Anyway to each it's own, it's all fair in DayZ unless you cheat/hack or glitch ofc.

Adding ability to make fireplace will be nice, might also make playing on night servers more interesting. Plus they are adding sickness from being drenched from rain, so we might need to actually hide from rain, in some barn or something, and huddle around campfire. Perfect time to tell stories and cook some food. Would also love to be able to make torch (rags + sticks), plus putting flares back in game will be nice. Nothing like Elektro lit up by flares :-). Also I wonder if they will add vodka to the game. Nothing like being drenched by rain and keeping warm by drinking good old vodka :D. Plus they would make great molotov cocktails.

Really looking for next patch notes for experimental, yay

I understand you like this weapon, looks nice, but devs have to be carefull with what weapons to add. They kinda should fit the theme, so majority of weapons should be of russian & eastern origin, although NATO & Western weapons are also there (M4 and pistols so far). What I am trying to say is, that it is not for the good of the game to add every cool looking weapon there is.

Ahh....please aducate me how is my forum avatar relevant to my ingame looks?

I highly dont trust folks with masks. Ofc I realise, even the most friendly dude can wear mask, but still. Have no problem with cowboy hats though.

For me, at the moment, sun is glitched and shines even through damned buildings or hills. Does not make game very pretty O_o. Also when I turn ambient oclusion ON, it literally eats like 50% of my FPS. My rig i-7 4770K, 8GD DDR3 and Radeon HD7870 2GB, game on SSD. I believe this hw should be more then enough to run this game on max, but as we all know, it just ain't. Oh well, I will patiently await client optimalisation, after last patch of two the game feels more fluid indeed. I just wish I could play SA on max O_o. edit: dat is the prettyness!

Was actually thinking the same except that zombies would need to stop glitching through walls.

Just the other day I was axed by random dude in a barn. I think it was around Mogilevka or something. I went in (red roof barn), looked at the bottom floor, thought I heard something but then he was upon me swinging fireman axe at me...game over.

Devs gotta fix that at some point.

Well usualy, when you need it, you can't find it. I carry 40x rounds for SKS, but I have hunting rifle and I've managed to find only 9 rounds for it + snap loader. Also found 3x box of ammo for Magnum, hopefully found magnum in office building top floor (love that little snuggly room giving us weapons).

Would be cool to see, what's on experimental server at the moment. I've downloaded 205 MB when I switched to experimental, so there's gotta be few new things in there....or are all data just for the optimalisation I wonder?

Hope its not wildly offtopic, I bought Avermedia live gamer HD lite to record gameplay. What is nice: Almost zero FPS loss Recorded stuff is in mp4 so it does not take that much of HDD space Quality of vid is good What is not so nice: You are limited to Full HD only Connecting everything when you also use USB Headset with mic, can be a problem Btw I've read that shadowplay can cause some serious lags or performance loss, but maybe they polished it out in new drivers? I was thinking about buying Nvidia 760 or 770, but in the end I kept my Radeon HD7870 and bought that Avermedia lite, which was kinda cheap (1/4 of the new GPU).

Heh I know the feeling. Dragging burlap sack with me....hoping for rope to create courier backpack, only to never find the damned rope :-/.

Scumbags and bored kids do. I believe you are wrong. They have changed the architecture to be more server sided, then it is in Arma 2 - 3. So there should be noticeable difference in hacking in mod (which was piss easy) to hacking in DayZ SA.

For me, it now rains a lot! Like it. When the weather clears and sun shines, I can still see the shine of it even through frikkin buildings or hills.

I went from spawn up to the north west, we went through several villages and pretty much everything was looted. Me and my buddy almost died of starvation and let me tell you, it was NOT fun. We found just 1x powderem milk and 1 - 2 can of tuna. When you travel the way, that many before you did, you really will not find much. Let's not forget, that now you spawn just on eastern side of the map, so logically there is less "directions" you can take, that nobody before you went. It's not like there is dozen of main places where you can head to or is it? You have 2 airfields, wrecked ship and places with barracks and it just can happen, that no matter where you spawn, the way ahead of you is just picked clean, when server is up for 3 hours. So I don't know, maybe you were lucky or server was not that full. TL;DR Loot not spawning is a considerable issue.

Ammo does not seem that uber common though, or maybe I was just unlucky. Anyway to get SKS I'd go to office/school top floor small room and the piano house.
