    The new 3pp camera and FOV Slider

    There's already fixed version called 1pp. I don't think 3pp cam "abuse" will ever be completely fixed, unless they put massive amount of resources in it. I honestly think some of you are asking for impossible. Only way you could really stop players from using it is to make other players not render at all once your behind a solid non transparent hard cover. I don't know about you, but something like that sounds pretty complex to me and they will have to invest massive amounts of work hrs to make it happen.Do you think the server would really be capable of tracking each players LOS and do all the correct player rendering in realtime without any additional desyncs or whatever issues? I'm really curious how many % 3pp players want this "abusive" mechanic to be fixed, because im getting a feeling this is being pushed forward by the same group of a few hundred people who just cant get used to it. I guess the only thing that bothers me is knowing that they will re-adjust the camera for at least some 5 times and what not for the next n-updates, whilst they could work on something else. And each time they will do it, there will be a new reddit post saying "hey if lean to this corner i can still try-hard peak out". Well, dohhhhhhh > :( . Besides, how will you make it so i wont be able to hug a tree/bush/garbage bin/insert obj. name here and peek left/right? And guys, for real, parking at the corner peeking might be lame because you don't see the bad bad exploiter, but honestly, you don't stand a chance spotting me on 1pp if i hug a bush either. Or if i hug a tree. Or pretty much any object as long as i stay still and keep one obj. in our LOS/LOF. I dont need 3pp for that. I had hrs of sessions on 50/50 berezino where people would literally slaughter themselves 3m away from the bush i was standing in. I think some of you put way too much death credit to 3pp cam. That being said, just be grateful for whatever change the devs. are trying to do to please you. Majority of people doesn't have a problem with this cam. because we all stand on equal grounds, so the way i see it, they're actually trying to satisfy the minority. And they try to fix something that's very hard to fix. Be happy :) I guess this post belongs more to reddit and it's never ending /dayz bitching, but i cant bother making an account there for that very reason.

    I'm sorry guys but all these updates got me a bit confused, once the 0.5.7 hits stable, we are getting the persistence:ON (tents. backpacks, gardens, trucks) CLE, right? And if im not mistaken Helis won't randomly respawn across the map and will not respawn loot?

    edit lol nvm a moment of stupidity
  4. Same. I like limiting myself to go without the backpack and if my first thing i find is a cowboy hat.. same as you .)
  5. Civilian planes, sure. Nothing with guns. Altho Il2 sturmovik indeed was mass produced, it had everything from wing mounted MGs, tail gunner, rockets and cassettess... If that would not be OP i dunno what would it be. Same for choppers, i dont want to get rekt over and over by the server owner. This. Even now (0.55) i find it ridiculous to play on some private servers since only admin&his band of brothers know when the restart is going to happen. They obviously make sure they hold all the key locations before doing it, so yeah, feels like you play for their leftovers. Pass.
  6. 2. Now that you mention it, i was going to say a "worn" mine probably gives you a %chance to detonate but since i don't know that for sure I didn't. I got blown by a damaged mine once(altho i saw wobos guide..), and worn one twice (because i really thought i can make it the 2nd time around if i only stand back a bit further... :blush: )

    Tell us why we died

    i would be okay knowing why i died on experimental. Never on stable. uh uh, one more ! You are in 2nd floor of firestation you are dead :D
  8. The mine must be pristine. Damaged and worn ones will blow up the second u activate it. If it's pristine, you will have a luxury of a 3sec. countdown before it goes active.

    Oh, i would always prefer it to stay open, it was still worth a trip. I only said it because he probably thinks he missed some epic mines with rails&cards and so much of awesome... Taking it back, it was a nice location :P Does this removal mean they wont rework the cave at all (leave the entrance shut) ?

    Lol, im avoiding those towers since 2002 :D RIP... Dont worry the mines were really poor. there was only a small tunnel, 1 minute walk. no nice textures just a hole. You have nicer "caves" around svetlo-berezhki "peninsula" Too bad the pits are going. Those were awesome. I remember the first time i looked down the massive grave one, muh immersion. Im wondering, is this being done due to world objects hitting its limit? Didn't they say they are reaching the hard obj. limit (or something lik that?) just before 0.55 hit stable ? The pits were great, only reason to remove them would be "more resources" for Tisy ...

    if i would have to loot accordingly to FPS i would yet need to see more than half of the cities.. the thing is, you're pretty silly if u dont go loot chapa if u get cherno spawn. It's the best of the dubky-novoselky-chapa trio. its a love-hate thing. The area around the hospital/school and tech building seems to be the worse since theres so many tall buildings surrounding you. i wouldnt mind one or two of them being destroyed in a same fashion as the hotel in cherno. i tottaly understand some of you love the area as it is, thats why i didnt say i would raze them all. There can be a middle ground :) :/ why?

    i dont think the buildings are out of the place but i really hate chapa for the fps drops u get there, god forbid u meet someone. If u log in/out from chapa u can see how much stress it gives to your pc trying to render every floor and every item 12 stories above you.. tbh, i was hoping they will raze half of them or make them spawn no loot or only have 1 floor that's accessible. I dont think people enjoy looting them, they are just nice sniper platforms.

    How was your Day(Z)?

    Id blame the desync. I once tried to hold up a guy sniping chapaevsk. I shot him unconscious, bandaged him and told him not to draw his weapon once he gains conscious. Well, that was the first thing he did and altho i was ready for it, i still got shot by his dead body 2-3 seconds later whilst i was already prone. This happened in elevator shaft in the tall apartment building overlooking the beachside, so there was no higher point where i could get shot from. Also, i know it was his ak74su that sprayed me. It sucked 'cause i was giving him a chance, not to mention i reacted in order to save my life but still got screwed. I also had a fail attempt of holding two guys at prison island from 10m whilst they were showing me their backs.one just simply moonwalked-desynced some 20m on my flank and i was basicly fked. I tried to kite them off so they couldn't use their numerical superiority. I knew i want a tight spot - a choke point if youd like, so i ran towards the hallways that leads to barracks. They both felt for it and went insta aggro on me thinking im running for my life. With their weapons lowered and sprinting inside the hall, i knew this is my time. I stepped out of the cover some 10m (if not less) infront of them. The fact none of the 30rnds on my mp5 hit any of the guys only lead to an embarrassing death. It was basicly tottaly like this from my POV You just dont wanna fk with Marcellus Wallace desync...

    How was your Day(Z)?

    I think some people just like to roleplay an annoying hyperactive child. Ive encountered "this" kid a few times aswell. I dont know if the main reason is boredom, quick backstab opportunities or just imitating that youtuber(who?) who did it first. I learned that if you make them think that you are more bored than them, they will leave you alone... Or they will want to team up lol. I usually just show them no interest and treat them like the old zombies. i don't fight them, i just sidestep his punches untill he gets bored and walks away. :D
  25. Mostly it was the making of my character and his "upgrading", just to die in style. I also find walking around the woods helluva relaxing. Once I am fully geared and super bored i just go to a high traffic place. There's usually players already waiting for me.
