    Didn't see that coming! Woop woop! Very good video.

    Well at least I know there will be couple Finnish FPV servers in standalone so I'm not that much worried about low populance. In mod there's only one and it's mostly empty because everyone has moved in play some other mods, missions or games to wait the standalone.

    We have alrady huge amount of videos etc from the gamescom so I don't expect much until the end of the month maybe.

    HACKER! Sad to hear that the interviewer got banned. I just hope it's only serverside that he hasn't realized yet and not a global ban. Good interview.

    Is ARMA 2 worth buying for Dayz?

    St. Jimmy replied to Dazalf's topic in New Player Discussion

    He said Arma 3...

    - Player interaction is the same in both persons except in 3rd person you can see someone before they have a chance to see you - Both person encourage role playing as much. Sounds like an illusion of rpg = 3rd person - How about peek your head over the wall and observe and move your head with alt and increase fov if you want - Well self awarness yes, surrounding can be increased with fov and triple screens or just looking around bit more - If this means getting stuck then this is true in Arma 2 so it's true in the mod. In Arma 3 and very likely in Standalone this isn't an issue anymore

    Well if someone says that first person sucks in DayZ/Arma 2 then I suggest you to test Arma 3 somewhere (maybe there will be demo available in the release). I believe that FPV in DayZ will be as fluid as in Arma 3 and believe me it's much more friendly, less mouse lag and you can easily move inside buildings because of the different paces. I just tested again Arma 2 after Arma 3 and A2 movement just feels awful. I believe many compensate the Arma 2 clunkyness with 3rd person so that's why I suggest this.
  8. St. Jimmy
    No Arma 3 :/

    In the end we are asking about nerf the 3rd person so much that it's the same if you're playing in the 1st person? It would be just better to leave it as it is and spent resources on other things or just remove the 3rd person.

    Woah woah! Wired may need to cut out that one. Probably just a target like other release targets and not a release date.

    We have the gear menu in the Standalone where you can see the character... Pretty much I don't even get what's your point. If there's 3rd person option OF COURSE people will check how things look. But if there's somehow one wo/man who hasn't done those then s/he has seen how things look when s/he has watched other people in FPV. All of those things can be asked from a friend how things look if it's really needed so there's no need for 3rd person for those things.

    When I played more I played in Finnish FPV server but it slowly went down after the hack fest. After that I haven't played that much actively but when I play I play in private Finnish FPV server but there's only 0-3 players so basically I haven't played much since January. Everyone plays Wasteland nowadays.
  13. St. Jimmy
    Yep here's one in action http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=mg-RSZ1hV94#t=1320

    So, we killed Gooogle today.

    Lol armed cars in DayZ. I don't accept this one.
  15. St. Jimmy
    The amount of butt-hurt is touchable :D These comments are even more hardcore than youtube. Btw Arma 3 wasn't in the poll? At least I don't remember that.
  16. St. Jimmy
    Just some ideas to improve FPV players so we really don't need to use TPV. Dean just made it sound that TPV is a feature that without we couldn't be aware of things in our character and not an option so I had to respond.
  17. St. Jimmy
    I've the same problem with cars. It's harder to play racing games or control a car from 3rd person. I always turn too much in 3rd person.
  18. St. Jimmy
    Because the older is so small that anything is better for the time they've to wait for the even bigger office?

    Is it EGAM3RS that has been the only one that discovered the readable books in Gamescom? /Oh PurePassion also got some look about the books. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/146143-my-detailed-dayz-standalone-report-from-gamescom-2013/?p=1447852 It's those little details that makes me love this game when it's released. Learning another language which wouldn't be even possible in the school that I educated is such a fun thing.

    Drink, drank, have drunk. Maybe it would be better "You drank a soda can"

    Rocket have you seen what Sakura_Chan is doing for the action menu in Arma 3? This would help people to pick stuff from the ground and open the doors without drinking your water bottle for example or whatever you've put in the action menu. He just hasn't changed action menu but he has changed how you interact with doors and objects way better than before in Arma games so you won't open the wrong door. http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?161146-KEYS-No-action-menu No more clunky door opening: Now you can see what item you're watching on the ground: What Sakura is doing is amazing improvement.

    Tons of 3rd person view servers doesn't mean it's the right way. There are tons of 300+ vehicles, auto refuel, starter kit etc. but that doesn't mean DayZ should be like that. So _Anubis_ please stop there are already enough of trolls like you in the thread. It's better to pretend that there never was 3rd person view in Arma. Let's now think how we can provide 3rd person view in the game so it isn't exploitable. /By the sound of couple Gamescom interview Rocket doesn't want to get rid off completely of 3rd person view.
  23. St. Jimmy
    You can find it from the forums too just saying... http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/146143-my-detailed-dayz-standalone-report-from-gamescom-2013/

    Thanks for this very good and deep report and keep the Bohemia forums clean also in the future :) Some cool details in the report so I really recommend to check it.
  25. St. Jimmy
    Check the Arma 3 stuff at and see how big Chernarus is. Chernarus is really 180km² and not 225km²? And Rocket is saying that Chernarus+ will be 260km² so is it expansion from 180km² or from 225km² -> 260km²?I was a bit shocked when I noticed that because 45km² (more than two Stratis) is pretty big difference.
