the point is the appeal to tradition isn't valid

idk, but it seemed you never looked at the roof of the hospital

how exactly does one use 3rd person correctly when being followed/hunted?

you sure about that? I think some people here would fight any significant changes made to 3rd person

when did that happen?

a lot of good ideas in here. I think these things could help the game become more dynamic and interesting

version 0.30.113953 is live, and the servers I saw were using it

there's supposed to eventually be a separate official hardcore hive. they've mentioned things like not being able to hide bodies, but I don't thing that has been implemented yet. whatever 'rules' they come up with, they should be standard for all the servers using that official hardcore hive. if people want to craft their own hardcore rule set, they can do that on private hives

yep. it gets confusing when people call poor fps "lag"

I would NOT recommend skimping on the PSU. get an Antec, Corsair, or Silverstone

start with the motherboard and cpu. you probably want to go intel for this game there's a lot of places to get suggestions on the rest. try the 'build a pc' subreddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc

the whole game would end up revolving around server restarts. there would be a lot of importance put on knowing what server restarts when. not to mention how it's already being abused by server owners

and don't follow up by calling it a "stupid" idea. I don't think some people realize how disrespectful their 'tone' is

how about we make it easier for the devs by not trying to constantly dictate what should be their 'priority'

it's not impossible if you have a general idea of your bearings anyway, I really like the current compass

a desktop would be cheaper and give you better performance

it they did something like that, I imagine people would be pretty upset. it might expose that people are full of crap when they claim they need 3rd person for all this other stuff. but ultimate I think many people would fight it if they can't see other players over/around cover I also think it would be kind of awkward not being able to see certain things in 3rd person. it just seems like a kind of messy solution

it would be interesting if a game could better simulate how our two eyes focus on things, but I imagine it would take some rather complicated (and taxing) DOF effects I think the mini zoom is a good compromise

I'm just an 'old school' dude and think that kind of stuff is no one's business. not to mention trying to figure these things out with some simple arithmetic is a great way to be wrong

I think this shit gets kind of weird when people start trying to calculate how much money someone has made

I hope the fatigue system becomes so harsh that you won't be able to run forever

yep, it's a dangerous way to play IMO. in the mod I killed a few players that just obliviously ran by me. I'm not a KOS type of player, but them just running by me in such a high risk game made me think they had to die

these kids should stick their tongue in the electric socket to see if they can take the power grid down

that's what I just noticed. I was confused because I spawned on the shore, so I tried some other servers, and each time I spawned somewhere else
