Blurry graphics for 3 days now(6 game hours)
alascer replied to fragbastard's topic in Troubleshooting
should be yes, BUT, color will fade as well regardless. -
question. why would you hide something i comment, which is, if not LESS pointless then the topic of this thread, and the other 50,000 that include the same detail of thought. now i 100 understand my comment of "disliking mayonnaise" was pointless. but look at the topic of this thread. it's a complaint about a game that is no where near finished. not even 1% done. in the total over view of this game, the process's that have lead to where the game is right now if i logged in on any server shows just how, and excuse the bluntness, fucking pointless this game is. i'm not talking about the KOS or the BANDITS or anyone who wants to call adding some scripts "hacking" (side note; it's not, learn to computer), i'm talking about the millions of little things that make you stop what you're doing and say to yourself / anyone on your skype or team speak, "you've got to be kidding me.." or as some would say "wtf". let's discuss, 1 - as it's said SEVERAL times a day, this game is not finished, as pointed out in this very thread you even accept the fact it's not EVERY SINGLE TIME you want to play this mystery box called Dayz 2 - tracking and paths of zombies, what can we say, walls they can somehow wall into, yet a simple "step after step" aka stairs or ladder, can be a challenge 3 - random moments you some how break a bone or leg; or as i call them, bugs. (dev's, feel free to use the word "bug" as needed) this hasn't even gotten onto the topic at hand yet, how this game has no "end", it purely is just that. nothing. it's a game about nothing, shit all, absolutely bloody nothin'. why the heck do any of us even play it. to kill others?, to watch people log as soon as you KOS, to run around with an axe?.. there is no GOAL of this game, other than the mental challenge of how long you can sit in front of your desk and do the same actions over and over. now ANYONE who has played the mod knows this. anyone who's played any of the ARMA series be it old or 3, knows this. these games are about SHIT ALL. but somehow, you find it fun, it gets inside you and it makes you want to do this better or try getting this out come differently, BUT WAIT, what if i do THIS that way?!?! now lets skip some of the repeated and honestly, pointless info in the OP, and focus for a second on what was said as "the only entertainment value". there is ZERO entertainment value in this game. it's a simulation. goolge the meaning of "simulation" if you need to know what it is. i could sit here for a good hour writing all my thoughts on what everyone is saying and help out every little gamer boy and girl by posting all the info i know to help answer their cry of "this games so bad right now" considering that when they paid for it via steam it states "unfinished", however if i did this, helped and commented back with the much needed flame of what we call, stand alone, the question is raised, am i any different from those who complain and can't read any interview or dev report or even the first "what dayz SA will look like" interviews/reports. my point is this. base building has been bought up, and to be openly honest with who ever the hell read all this, most of these "cry" threads have been answered before you even thought about hitting "create new thread" do you're research, if you actually want to play this game, you'll know what to type into google, or hell.. even find on this site.

it's a glitch atm in SA, goto video settings, press the button that says "video settings", that's it.. happens ALL THE time to me, like at least once every hour.. health blurry would make your colour fade, which in your shots, it has not. -
the internet is to small for my thoughts on mayo
-
combat loggers are like mayonnaise, disgusting.
-
why dont you buy it, play it, and decide for yourself. i get why people ask "is it good" and shit like that, but fuck, thats like asking me if i like mayo on a chicken sandwhich, i hate mayo, but mayo to you might be amazing. in closing, buy the game and fuck mayonnaise.

oh we are, don't you worry.

its not summer in australia, aka, where dean/myself are. i'll ride my kangaroo over to his house and let his koala know to tell him that it's summer.

Being the nice guy is often the hardest job in dayZ.
alascer replied to OptimumVision's topic in General Discussion
i treat dayz as i would a real life situation the same way, keep to myself and look on from afar, i die a lot less, last char was 4 weeks old (playing about 2 or 3 hours a day), unless i need ammo or am running out of canned food, i will stick to the very north west of the map where i know like the back of my hand. just waiting for base building to become a thing and i'll be a very very happy camper. -
off topic mate, i have mates in yorkshire. good vids to!

THIS. in the mod, i would always stick to priv hives for that one reason, no matter what, you always played with the same people. you'd know who's who and it DID create a "world", not just community. it was some of the best gaming i've ever been apart of because you would be so indepth and included in this world that you wanted more and more. private hives are what make a good idea into a good game.

Is it worth buying Dayz standalone yet? [With Developer responses]
alascer replied to Blade4777980's topic in General Discussion
game is being made, not finished. if you've ever owned a track car or ever built a car to the end, you'll know that it takes a long time. you start with a shell, than have to find everything to fit into it, seats, motor/s depending on your luck with heads, rims, turbo choice, cam choice.. hell.. i could be here for a while, BUT, once you start your car you've built for the last few months of year of however long it takes, and you do that first lap around the block with no bonnet on and no exhaust, you just cant get rid of the grin on your face. in closing; dayz is being built, and created. it is not finished, it is still being worked on daily. just like building a car, but everytime a new update comes out, it is one bit closer to doing that first lap around the block. buy it, support it, shut the fuck up with the complaining about the bugs, and just understand that it is something you yourself, could never of done. -
i got lost

for some reason these look way worse than what they really are, i am playing ultra everything but steam took the worst screenshots.. anyway, non the less, here's some from last night. enjoy!

The Communitys Official Vehicle/Vehicle Idea Thread Version 1.5 (Now with constantly changing polls!)
alascer replied to d.walker43's topic in Suggestions
TY BUT Think of tape to damage as you would would sewing kit to backpack, doesnt fix it 100%, patches it up kinda thing. the tractor in the mod is crap, it has no real use apart from being crap. if you could however attach things to it eg; claw, hoe etc than you'd have a different story. even an excavator so you can dig underground / into mountains to make a cave. but than you'd need to have both unleaded and diesel options of gas, however, diesel could found at bigger places such as sea ports, airport etc, where as fuel can be anywhere. -
The Communitys Official Vehicle/Vehicle Idea Thread Version 1.5 (Now with constantly changing polls!)
alascer replied to d.walker43's topic in Suggestions
one thing that really needs to be added is damage.. take for example, my old 180sx, hit a guard rail side ways and presto, it was fucked.. BUT, bit of black race tape (or really really strong masking tape if you're from USA) and bam, instant fix. something like this would make the game way more realistic. just my two cents. pre putting tape on after putting tape on -
jump onto WA server number 5 always nearly full and there's some good people on it, i'm not, but i know for a fact that there is. my in game is 666 but yeah, there's some good people on it, never lags much too if you have good net (i have cable so it's normally pretty good for me / mates on adsl)

Third Person View should be Over-the-Shoulder, NOT a bird's eye view.
alascer replied to Rags!'s topic in General Discussion
if this was purely 1st person view, i would not play it. i wouldn't support any game like this that is. if it was over the shoulder view like the last of us or some other shit arcade game, i would not play it or buy it. "if it works, there is nothing to fix" don't change something that's already good. if you feel it's to much of an advantage, play a first person hardcore server only. there are several options for everyone of every skill to enjoy this game. -
Do you carry a handgun when you have an automatic rifle?
alascer replied to roguetrooper's topic in General Discussion
I'll only ever have a pistol if for some reason I can't find a rifle, I'd rather a sks over and gun in game (atm) any day of the week. you don't need the best, you need something you can use. -
So lets discuss some weird experiences in dayz
alascer replied to Lehfeels's topic in New Player Discussion
had some guy running around novo tower the other day just repeating the "N" word over and over, just running around.. bit odd also, saw a few days ago a deer being chased by a zombie, the zombie being chased by another zombie and a player at the end just following them around, musta been watching them or something, was pretty funny cause they just kept going around in circles and the order of who chased who would change lol -
if spawns are spread, it creates a map, not just an area. it would expand the game play by at least 50% because new players would be able to actually understand what needs to happen in order to play, and it would create a better sense of "survival" as everyone / thing isn't right next to you. if you don't vote yes, you honestly don't play dayz how it should.

i'm actually a bandit in real life so..... yeah.. this is awkward

The Community's List of Suggested Weapons for Dayz Standalone (Version: 1.29)
alascer replied to alexeistukov's topic in Suggestions
yeah i pretty much thought the same, however considering the fact the winchester made it in the mod and is a gun that is mainly imported rather than held in it's country of origin, doesn't hurt to ask ;) -
Taking back Novo tower goes smoothly and without incident.
alascer replied to RADmen's topic in Gallery
it wasnt more so the camera or this or that, the only thing that kinda let me down was the fact that considering how many people you had teamed up you still kinda just held the tower, well... from the tower. i'm not gonna lie, i'd do the same, but only if it was like me and a mate, the size of the group meant you could of held that area of the city!, which would of been a bit more interesting to watch, like i said, it's not bad, but it was kinda readable as to what would happen. the main thing is that you're having a positive input to the game be it in beta alpha pastabake candycane cat state v3.40585 or what ever issue it's upto now, that's what counts. way to many dudes bash this game when it's not even a game yet, hell they even give the mod shit and that's all it was, a mod. you're gonna have a bad time in anything you do at least a few times, be it hackers / alpha state in games, or be it getting defected in your chaser for having a roll cage with no safety cert cause you were to tired to fit it 100% the sunday night before you drive it to work (true story). it's just good to see that people still want to come together (even if in one spot ;P ) to do something we all like, and that's play this game. -
