Hetstaine

Min requirements ? I was running current build with what i posted above and maxed out, all on very high. Only thing i have upgraded is my card to a gtx560ti. Game runs sweet and smooth as. Latest drivers, lean out your machine with background processess killed etc. Shut down all of your uneeded crap, game face on.

I would suggest that the first system requirements ( xp , core2duo and 8800gt) would be low graphics settings, choppy in built up areas and probably look like shit. Definitely do yourself a favour and go at least two gen beyond that if you can afford it. 8800GT is a damn old card and so is the cpu. Arma ran average on that four odd years ago. I wouldnt want to play it ..even current version , with under 4 gb ram , gtx460 or above and win 7 with a 3.33ghz cpu. Anything lower and you are dropping settings for playability. Did they even mention vista..what was that thing ?

Close but no cigar..Rocket comes over and hatchets you to death when you open the door.

If i enter a church my hair instantly catches fire and my face IMFUCKINGPLODES! ..so no..that would be a game breaker for me i am afraid. :)

Been stuck in that exact spot, nothing i did worked so i walked away ..let him starve out. Lost my fucking Mak. Respawned near Balota and Raged hard killing goats and running down rabbits across four servers. Took a tree to the forehead and slid down an incline snapping all my shit and bending my back upside down on a rock. Died in the woods alone while the fucking rabbit looked at me with its lifeless eye. Fuck that room amd fuck that rabbit.

Gonna need heat packs :)

Partner and i were running down from Novy to a bicycle spawn on the main road near Guglovo. Zeds spawned just near a few crappy buildings halfway between Guglovo and Novy , instead of taking them out we cut a right into a plowed dirt field to take a curve around them. Halfway across this field i hear this slight droning in my headphones..'shhhhh be quiet ..i think i can hear a vehicle ..' its about 1.25 am and cloudy, we both have nvgs though. I crept up towards the road going from bush to bush when this motorbike comes roaring up the road with two dudes on it..she has moved back towards the treeline. I tell her to go prone behind a tree and scope them, but she had lost her DMR previously and only had an ak74 kob and m1911. No matter, i tell her if shit hits the fan just try and cover me as best you can and pissbolt for the full forest if you need too. The bike dives off the road and heads into the field, they would have known we were there as they would have spotted the zeds when they came up the road. They head for me and my partner is like ' they are comin staight at you ! ' i am crouched and have them mscoped but i always have this stupid plan that we can try and hook up with other survivors, or just say gday and head our seperate ways.. 50/50 it works..really. So they must have spotted me scoping them from beside my small bit of scrub bush as they suddenly veer away full noise back to the road. I crouch follow and get to beside the road and prone in some bushes trying to spot them. The road here is higher than the field so i am fully covered on one side from being spotted. I assume they have thermal and tell my partner to try and stay as concealed as possible or work her way to the rise behind her so she get down the other side and be fully hidden. She says she is too scared too move lol..we can both hear th bike faintly, then it goes quiet. We wait. About ten seconds later shooting erupts and i can hear the thwip noise over ts of the bullets passing by her..'they are shooting at me fuk fuk fuk! ' i tell her to get up and boss it over the rise , i will see if i can spot them if they follow. Then she says she is hit and bleeding. So far they have fired at least ten or so times , she is still at about 6 blood and has made the rise and going down the other side. She tells me she sees a barn directly in front and is going in to bandage. I am just looking around waiting for someone to pop their head up somewhere. She makes the barn and immediately has to cap a zed, and as she starts to bandage another zed is on her, broken legs, timer..dead. Fuk. I am wanting to bolt for the opposite forest but only have a general idea of where these two guys are, the forest i want to get to is a good 30-45 second sprint so chances of death are possibly high. Where i am is a nice little spot as like i said they could only see me from one side and since me and my partner where seperated by a couple of hundred metres i dont know if they would be looking for me there. I decide to chance it and get up ready to piss bolt..then i am diconnected from game. Fuuuuck. Try three times to reconnect but my partner who has spawned at Drakon says i am getting some sort of error on her screen when i enter. Ten or so minutes later i finally get in after i do a steam verify (thanks guys who i asked last night for help) , i spawn at the same spot, go to the barn and grab her nvgs and gps and head down the road to meet her halfway. Every know and again i can hear the bike in the distance so i stick to the treeline all the way down and we meet up again jsut south of Staroye. Was a good heart pumpin little sesh even though i never fired a shot, and never saw the shooters after they booked it through the field on their bike. Just knowing that they were out there looking for us, possibly with thermals and that we were going to lose all of our shit and have to start afresh had me keyed up. Flip side was when i got booted at least the guys would have seen my char name get booted becasue of the error code so they knew we did not log, obviously they would have notched up a kill as well. Because we dont log unless it is a teleport or the Alice message it just isnt a factor when it comes to our gameplay. In a shoot out or an ambush wether it is with suspected thermal equipped players, snipers or some crazy fuk with an axe, doesnt matter , stay and play. If we would log in situations like that the whole feel of the game and being in a tight situation where you more than likely do not have the upper hand becomes a moot point. All you are doing is hanging onto your gear and nothing more. tldr..wall of text..meh.

mmmmmmmm cod...i could so go some fish and chips after reading this thread. Decent ones that are fresh..not that frozen shit from the local take away.That charge ou extra for the tartare. Fuckers.

Die he mention that he parked his chopper near his truck and atv just before heading to Elektro ? Just hackin ya op :) but i thought the same as most when reading the thread..new to game, rangefinders and then svd.I have only seen two svds in many months. Duping and hackers.Bastids.

Did you ever play Saints Row ? My lad had it on ps3..some of the moves from that game would be killer. Me and my mate have talked about how low Cherno would sink if there was a bunch of melee animations :D i would end up laughing so much that im afraid i would not be able to play though..especially the one hand grab backhanding bitch slap !

Once the bullets were flying i dont think it would have mattered :D The fuckers may have been joking but..shit backfires and all of sudden its jam face. At least you were on the ball Puppet.

Using your example above of the Ghillie dude..rush that motherfucker zagging like a freak with your hatchet out ..pop shots at him, going by the amount of people that seem to think logging is ok he will probably bail anyway. It is after all only gear that you can get again, but knowing that you bested the fucker or at least gave it a shot is a game moment you dont get if you log. Dying with gear is clearly a different game emotion but to me it is still better than running scared because of some loot you have acquired.

Footage or it never happened.

Must be desyncing or something if it takes more than one headshot. I see it all the time. My mate takes three to four with the mak whilst i take one . Then next time time we jump on i am using 3-4 to take one down. If this happnes to us over a period longer than a few minutes we log and then come back in. The Mak it is a one shot headshot kill , period , for zeds. You are either desyncing or missing. Btw my mate exclusively uses the mak for zeds and is the one shot kill master. Its not the gun. And yes..boot option would be fucking great !

So you combat log unless the situation is the situation you like. What if the dude is sniping at you with a silenced gun from 50 metres away where you cant see him. You log ? wtf. Not losing your gear to someone you cant see..are you sure you are in the right game man ?? Come at me haters..aint hating..just dude..really ? Plenty go to Berezino :) ..shops, apartments, hospital, military tents, deer stands no snipers living on the hills , a short jog to the airfield..why the fuk would you want to hang around Cherno and its surrounds when Berezino has so much more to offer ? Maybe i should keep my trap shut ;)

I know right..as soon as someone and their mates have all of the gear or abort in combat or dupe they assume 99 percent of people do it. Its a way of saying..everyone does it so it makes it all good.

Hey ProGamerGov..i thought your avatar was a pair of undies..jus sayin' :D

Meh..too many have the as50. I only use the bizon to kill the zeds around the helis then throw them. It is not a bad gun though as you can put enough bullets on target to kill a player before anyone else even knows you are there.

Well dont hold us all in suspense man! What were you thinking ? Zombiekrieg ? Zipperhead ? ZigZag ? Zomg ..what lad.. what ??

Hey..its a slow friday at work man :D

If you keep going i may have an ephinany soon...i mean really. You are offering so much advice for and against dayz v leisure suit larry and other mighty games you have played that i feel like i am wasting my time enjoying myself in this game trying to compete with people and their 'arma vet' skills. btw ..i have arma since release, would not run on my home built sli machine as it was so buggy..tried t get it up and running for a long time , did not whine once on the forums and come across like a chump. Want a running race when you go outside in rl ? I got the blue ribbon in primary school for the 100 and 200 meters..yes..im a track vet. Didnt even use W once either. Love you man :)

Why do so many people quote 'everyone' ..not everyone aborts because they are worried about losing their shit. Speak for yourself man :) Your game style is not everyones game style.

Correct , its early and i am clearly not fully awake yet ..chances were he was just a really bad gamer but it turns out he is simply a troll..my mistake :)

Why do i want to look at my watch ? Wasd is always changed to my arrows..since the day i brought my first pc. As a supposed arma vet why do you come across as a full noob ? Seriously..you ran for an hour trying to lose a zed..? What did you do when you got arma..Jump on the forums and start with your 'Oh man this game blows , i get shot from 800 metres away and cannot find the shooter, i cant fly the heli , i cant drive the bmp, what a pos ' ? Or did you take your time , do some tutorials and work it out ? Come in here telling everyone the mod is shit because you cannot play it, could not be bothered to work out or even find out how to avoid the zeds..the very first basic of the game then tell everyone how long you been gaming ? My partner has only been gaming since about 2007..and i am afraid she would walk rings around you pal. Sorry sir.. Minus Beanz for your lack of skills in the way you represent yourself and come across.

I will pay money if you upload that to youtube, as well as your rl guide on how to survive in the zombie apocalypse.
