I built a new rig in mid 2006 for a flight sim but also had Crysis on my radar..on a budget but she was a nice thing back then. Waited a month for a P5N32SLI premium mobo from the states.2 7800gs cards, new duo core 2.4ghz clocked to 2.8.With tweaking Crysis ran fucking awesome until the big alien dome appeared towards the end of the game, then she started stuttering. Arma , which came out around the same time ran like a drunk dog, gave up on it after a month of fucking with it. Changed from sli to a 9800gtx+ after one of the 7800's died and a rerun through Crysis was beautiful all round with some tweaking. Never went back to arma until the mod, The original flight sim i built the rig for.. finally came out in 2011, 8 years in development and it was an unoptimised pos. Many tears.

Things that make me wonder about the whole DayZ deal and idea/direction of the game in general.

tjdr..yep. Apocalyptic world. Start off alone, thirsty, cold, hungry. No camp, no supplies, no place to call home, no friends. Yet..we are fit, toned, basically super healthy..just need a drink and a few cans of food. The environment looks like a streetsweeper just went through yesterday. The world is cleaner than it has ever been, minimal rubbish, decay, destruction..a severe lack of any nature takeover of any sort. Don't mow your lawn or clean your house for two months and see how you roll..place looks worse than a dump. Damn, if i don't water my plants for a few days or clean my loungeroom for a week it looks like the world ended. Yet in dayz i am running around on polished wooden floors and entering most places that look like the cleaner just left three days ago. Imagine what a even a small shithole of a town would look like after a few months with nobody maintaining it. Hoping there will some ..even some minimum focus on the actual environment in dayz besides just the addition of just another new joint, or a new dam or some dressing up with new buildings in an existing town. Of course i realise there has been some work done with some blood splattery action..and then some random ancient world war two looking bombed out buildings that don't seem to fit with the rest of the town surrounding it..and we always have that broken tile in the barracks..what about the nature factor ? nature don't fuck around..ask my lawn. Love the game like mad, love the concept since day 1, but i have always felt a real lack of the actual feeling and immersion- a disconnect with a world gone peopleless for an extended period of time. Where is the part of this game where you feel like you are struggling in a cold hard broken down world , the actual feel of DayZ ? Easy enough to capture in a nicely edited video with cinematic music and a super sexy deep voiced narrative..not so easy to actually recreate the experience in game. Namalsk would have to be the mod closest to the apoc feel because of the elemental factor and the blustery winds and worrying cold .. the environment fucked you up and made you feel the cold and desperation of needing warmth/supplies/shelter..i remember worrying about that more than anything else in my Namalsk treks rather than wondering about whether i needed a bigger backpack to fit my 160 rounds of sks or which gun i should select out of the so many options available to me. Spending more time shuffling clothes to look good like a GTA game or painting an item because i am bored and i need to do something ...because actual survival has been so easy in the SA it is null and void. Where is the worry that i am a struggling person in a world gone to shit ? Bandits ? KoS ? That's all part of any game with guns...where is the DayZ struggle ? Even something as basic as THIS is a start regards environment. I've walked down streets like that in my home town of Brisbane on a bright and sunny day in suburbia and shook my head and wondered what the hell. DayZ being a post apoc type world can't even compete with what i see in a modern, first world countries major city outer suburb. I have always been a pretty massive proponent of DayZ, i fucking love the whole idea, i like Deanos attitude..especially his early mod passion and aggressiveness but it seems to have just got far far easier as time goes by and focused more on the whole guns and items deal than any sort of immersion for the player. Sure..items are cool, new joints are cool, new gun attachments are cool..but where is the environment at all ? besides the you are are cooling off yadda yadda stuff..which is also far to easy to get past..and doesn't gel with the environment at all in any sensible way.- 63 replies

Unsure if being sarcastic, drunk or just lost on the net. Definitely could go a good lamb roast though. With spuds. That's the thing..Alpha is the implentation and beta is the bug fixing of said implementation. Beta is feature complete so if the major changes are not done in alpha, traditionally, then you don't see it in beta..once again, traditionally. What i have posted, as have many others in the same vein over at least the last year ..and much longer regards environment, has not been implemented..so will not be in beta. -

It doesn't need to be dynamic, it can be static like you said, a lot of the static objects are old carry over low texture items anyway. Like i said, it takes mere weeks of no maintenance for nature to start taking over, we aren't talking day of the triffids here :) -

Hi guys...an alpha you say..insert nic cage you don't say meme here. Jeezuz. You guys got past the coast yet ? -
I generally stay away from groups as it always ends in death..roll into Elektro or Cherno as a newbie and you will be sure to meet many idiots ;) I have no fucking idea. Just before i started recording i threw a book at her and hopefully someone took her out later.

Yiss to all of that. Re-Vehicles. The map became so small and you got geared so quick that i missed the journeys of having to trek for your hard earned gear.
