    Quentin's Troubleshooting Topic

    ANOTHER question instead of making a completely new topic. As of now I am planning to get the GTX 970. It will me a tight squeeze into my computer but it should be fine. On the other hand, the recommended watts for the GTX 970 is 500. The total power for the stock Dell power supply with my XPS is 460 watts. I know I'd never end up using 500 watts but I want to be safe. Can anyone point me in the direction of a 500-550 watt power supply that is compatible with my computer?

    Quentin's Troubleshooting Topic

    Thank ya! I have an XPS 8700 Special Edition and I haven't upgraded it at all. It plays most games great! But I'm looking for more powerr. I checked out the GTX 970, I'll probably end up getting it.

    Sniper Rifle?

    It was supposed to be released last wendsay from what I had heard. But then they said it might've come out last Friday if they were fast about it, when Friday passed, they said "definitely next Wednesday". Which is in two days.

    This is why I never try to be a hero anymore

    Being a hero is if you actually saved your friend. You were both fresh spawns anyways. It doesn't count. :p

    wind direction/speed feedback to the player

    Wouldn't it be nice if they added in Wind for whenever you are sniping? You'd have to have a speedometer for extremely long distances, though. The devs are all about realism, right? wind Is real.

    No servers on Windows 8.1

    Have you tried re-installing it?

    Sniper Rifle?

    There are currently Mosins, which are just bolt action military rifles. Until SVDs are added to the game sometime this week, you have to find a Mosin. Don't try too hard, though. This week everyone's characters are being reset. If you want to find a Mosin, look in big houses and industrial areas. Or look on dead bodies.. Cheers.

    Dayz really blurry and zoomed in

    /"pretend" moved to Troubleshooting Step One: Go to your Desktop Step Two: Click on the Documents Folder on your Taskbar Step Three: Under "This PC" Go to Documents Step Four: Click on the DayZ Folder Step Five: Right click the DayZ.cfg file and click "open with" Step Six: Open the DayZ.cfg file with notepad or a different text editing program Step Seven: Find where it says "Resolution_W=----; and "Render_W=----; Resolution_H=----;" Render_H=----" Step Eight: Most monitors have a screen resolution of 1920x1080p. So if this is your monitors screen resolution, change the file to this: Resolution_W=1920; Render_W=1920; Resolution_H=1080; Render_H=1080; Step Nine: Overwrite the DayZ.cfg file Step Ten: Have fun! Hope this helped! :)

    How can I find servers that aren't fully looted?

    With persistence, finding loot will always be someone difficult. (especially to newer members). The servers you are playing on are not fully looted, you just are not looking in the right places. Here are a couple of tips: 1- Make sure that the server has between 1-5 people on it. You won't find squat if you join a server with 50 other fresh spawns running around. 2- Get your butt off that coast! I stay on the coast until I have a backpack and some food and a basic way to defend myself (a baseball bat). Once you have enough food and something to protect yourself. Face the ocean. Turn to your right with the water to your left. Turn 90° to your right. Now run straight. If you get hungry, then eat. Just keep running until you find a town. And there's your loot. :)

    Please, stop building villages everywhere

    There have actually been multiple conversations where the developers speak of expanding the map. They will. What do you think debug land is there for?

    Please, stop building villages everywhere

    They are going to pack Chernarus tight with towns and buildings. When the map is expanded, they will work on huge patches of wilderness.

    Handgun Holsters

    I'm sure that he meant handgun holsters for the waist.

    Government anti-infestation measures

    They're already adding in the Stary evac camp. If they add a few more of those things around then that will be sufficient.

    DayZ "Land Mines"

    The "DayZ Logo" you used in the video was REALLY blurry. Use this instead.

    Will my PC run DayZ?

    It will not be the best.. not quite. If you asked me what to get, i'd say to get a better processor. a more 'recent' one. At LEAST 8gb of ram (even though that doesn't matter too much). and that graphics card that you currently have will be totally and utterly engulfed into the dark trenches of DayZ, to barely escape with it's life would be a sign from god. (better graphics card, too) Cheers! :)

    Going bandit hunting before wipe tonight

    Bandit hunting isn't killing people who try to kill others. That's called pvp, buddy. If someone kills someone for their loot, or robs them, then that's taking from them, and making them a bandit. but if someone attempts to kill others, and you kill them, then you both are just pvp-ing. No banditry involved.

    Some suggestions about upcoming mushroom foraging.

    If mushrooms are added into the game, then you can bet they're going to add other types of edible things that don't come in cans. I love it. Walking through Chernarus like:

    Going bandit hunting before wipe tonight

    'Bandit Hunting' is impossible. When you kill someone, you don't ask them "by the way, are you killing people for loot?". So if by bandit hunting, you mean killing people that have guns and know how to use them, good luck. ;)

    What is it that drives you to play DayZ a lot?

    I personally play on DayZRP. The interactions and gameplay there is MUCH, MUCH better. But I play DayZ with friends to have fun. I mean, its a video game. We get together, grab a few AKMs and pvp down in elektro. Or start a farm in berizino and snipe zombies and handcuff bambi's. You just gotta do

    Dont Smoke Kids

    At 6:44 and 6:48 you can see a player in the hills to the right. I don't know If that was one of your friends, or one of the guys you were trying to kill. Just wanted to point it out.

    DayZ map development

    Time will tell everything you wish to know. When boats hit experimental in the foreseeable future, you'll know what's next.

    Question

    A friend told me that you can die if you go too long with ruined shoes, or no shoes at all. Is this true?
