guns should not even be allowed on nametag servers let alone sniper weapons. Everyone should only get a melee weapon. Fucking nametags + sniper..noobness extreme.

Pc reboot has done the job for me a few times, the only time i have had any major lag/fps issues is after an update. Same happens with a mates pc as well, similar to Yusho's story above, sometime he gets it, sometimes i do. Reboot = sweet.

My six launcher needs an epi pen. Dissconect issues, ping kicks, timeouts, serving desyncing and dropping off like flies. Steam is a joke for Dayz atm and Commander is dropping in and out. No dayz tonight.

Nice to see you helping out and offering solutions Detta. Should just troll the OP instead, cause that'll definitely get these guys in game.

i felt more for the guy you capped in the head who was trying to fight of the zeds at the beginning. the bold part seems even more lamer to me .

I like the red dot sight on the Kobra, plus it seems quieter than all of the other automatic weapons.

It used to keep track of most time alive, most zed kills, most murders etc

Have had two nvidia cards since dayz release, gtx460 and gtx560ti and my mate has a gtx680, all with no dramas at maz settings with brilliant frames. Only machine in our group that struggles and has had to lower some settingsfor playability is an ati rig (sorry ) Posting some specs will help. :)

Not bad Rocket :)

The stench of pew pew in here is overpowering.

this i like. There is a third type of player you fail to mention, one who goes about his business not by sitting in a bush and waiting for his thirst or hunger to flash and thus satiate the need with a swift right click to the water bottle or meat stash. Not by wanting simply the highest tier gear and not by killing other players. One who observes all of the mad happenings and sometimes takes part to help if he/she can. One who silently amasses a score of dead living dead, flitting through dangerous areas and leaves the others to kill each other mindlessly and fill their thirst for their own ends. One who doesnt mind a nice evening bicycle ride with the chance of a gunshot cracking across the fields. Always ready to flee at the sign of danger but ensconed in a hidden position with several chances of escape. One who doesn't lose their shit every time they spot a player and spray lead everywhere. One who is playing for survival whilst everyone around is running madly to the cities unarmed and looking for a weapon then popping off shots at anyone within distance or endlessly teleporting military spots to aqquire. More than likely a lot of these types of players do not frequent the forums as they do not feel the need, they know what they are doing and what they have set for themselves within the game and the forum offers nothing for them. They do not grief, they know how the game works insofar as glitches so they avoid them as much as they can, they know how to take out zeds, how to last, how to observe and not be seen. Watching the chaos around them smile bemusedly. These players are enjoying the esperience, lazily visiting towns and other places of interest ..death always lurking at their shoulder. Its like the old fighter pilots saying...hours and hours of boredom with split seconds of sheer terror and andrenaline.

Nice thread Max, glad to see it got pinned. Inbound beans my man :)

revenge..sweet sweet revenge. I wish you luck on your quest sir.

Cant beat that logic. :)

Not a fan of the PDW , if i find one i will just waste all of its ammo on any close in zeds then throw it away and pick up whatever sidearm i dropped. M9 SD i will do the same. I find it's accuracy is worse than..well.. anything. I would rather throw blunt toothpicks. M1911 i like because it is a killer, noisy yeah ..but if i have it in hand i feel safe if i come around the corner and meet a player.Bonus using revolver mags to convert. G17..gotta love the light and the big mag , bit noisy but the light ( for me) compensates when i am out and about in the dark. Can be a bitch to get mags, if i pick up a g17 i will shuffle whatever other handgun i have into my backpack in case i run outta ammo. I really use it more as a torch than anything..a torch that can shoot. Mak..yeah baby, i love this thing! Mags are absolutely everywhere , she nevers goes dry. Can pop shots as fast as you can pull the trigger and leave a trail of zeds wherever you go. My constant companion and the only gun that have ever used to kill players with..two were stalking me for my beans, my mak said no. I love you baby. Revolver..reminds me of cowboys and indians as a kid, i always wanted the rifle but ...nooooooo... "be nice and give your sister the rifle.. " but daaaad..GIVE HER THE DAMN RIFLE! ..plus slow reload..not a fan.But it will kill just like all of the other guns. If i had to pick just one..i would take the Mak. Never going to run out of ammo, and that is my main consideration over all else.

Same, best i have found is an AKM and the m1014 with flash. Generally it is trash, chemlights, bandages, pepsi. I find it very hard to waste my time going to stands now..but i still fucking do, just in case i find the fabled deer stand DMR.. Ooooh look, another fukn pepsi !

refer bold text :) Some people actually have an interest , some do not.No biggie. It is definitely a far more interesting and informative post than OMG i lost my gear..hackers are wrecking my life..NO GUN WHAT DO I DO 1!!?? ..Fucking pvp lame game im leaving..This game sux and will be dead in three dayz..Warz is the winnerz ,, etfuckingcetera. He is also trying to save his sanity, we all know that is beyond saving in this day and age..but hey..you got to give him props for trying :)

This thread shows why you dont see the tldr and dont give a fuck attitude people in serious flight simulation or on flight sim forums.. most get eaten alive because of their lack of knowledge and lack of ability to want to aqquire new knowledge, their simple dont give a fuckness and inability to engage in a discussion debate is rather amusing :) tldr..see you packing shelves at coles.

Hi retard feeling newb guy who has no clue. I would suggest browsing the forums as there is a plethora of posts contained within that will help you out in all of the areas you ask advice on. To make it easier on yourself i would suggest to run through the ARMA tutorials that are part of the stock game. This more than anything will get you used to the game and how to interact with your backpack and items. Talk is through direct chat, 80 metres and people can hear you or 40 metres range and they can see your typed text, it is hit and miss buggy though and more than likely you will get a cap in the forehead. Dont cruise around Cherno or Elektro and expect much help , refer forehead capping. Hatchet is your friend as it is silent and deadly but requires a reload once you pick it up so you can deploy mad axe skillage. Do not waste your time picking up the double barrell shottie. It is not your friend. Read the forums. Do the tutorials. Dont come back and whine in a day about how everyone is killing you and you lost your gear that took you hours to collect. The forums are overfull of these inane posts already. Watch, observe and learn. This is not run and gun and achievement driven, and hopefully never will be. enjoy :)

can you even get a mobo without onboard ? Are you sure you do not have onboard sound ? There is basically no need for a soundcard these days unless you are an audiophile. The difference you would notice whilst gaming would be neglible at best.

Don't they call prime movers tractors in the States ? and lorries in the UK ? Fucking lorries ??? Sounds like a small plastic object a child pushes around. 'Ooooh yes i remember Oxford Johnnie..wasnt he clipped by a lorry full of magazines ? ' What about if i only manage to clip someone after emptying a full mag from my Kobra, should i call it clip or wing, i always call it wing and my missus says it makes no sense as we are not birds and therefore cannot be 'winged'. My argument with her is ' would you rather i say i armed him ? or legged him ? She begrudgingly lets me use wing or winged but i see her forehead crease eveytime i wing another zed. Its actually amazing how many i can wing in a single session. clip, mag ..got it and thanks, its pretty basic stuff. I was thinking clip was slang for a pistol only magazine maybe, i was never really sure. I have also always understood that a magazine is a place ( i thought it was just a ship term though and didnt relate to land storage) where the ammo is stored. Guessing the Barham was not a fan ;)

Direct works randomly. Players within 80m can hear you, within a 40m range they can see your text. I say randomly because we have tried to use it in our small group and they can see the mouth animation but a lot of the time they do not hear anything. Same with text..sometimes works sometimes does not. Definitely not a good thing in a tight situation. We bailed from the in game comms and use skype or ts, i have tried direct a few times when other players are near but very rarely get a result so i assume they are not hearing me either.

Do not go anywhere without at least one morph in your ready to use items and a few in your backpack. Crawling for an hour sux the big one.Morph imo is the most important item in the game, especially if you are a lone traveller. Try to always stay above 10 thou blood, when under be more wary. Zig zagging zeds aside..when they are chasing you if you look over your shoulder while running, you will see when they get close they go into attack mode, turn quickly and headshoot them , you have a few seconds while they are standing still. Dont go anywhere without morphine. Zeds get through walls , its a glitch or whatever..be aware of it always :) When in buildings stay the fuck away from walls that give zeds the chance to get at you, especially if they know you are there. Dont go anywhere without morphine.

Words fail me, but thanks for the lol :D
