The barracks - did a run through NWAF last night and saw like 15 of them.

Because it is good advice? Old system: AMD FX-8150 Zambezi 8-Core 3.6 GHz GTX560ti FPS in Cherno: 13-15 if I was lucky- settings hobbled New System: Skylake 6700k GTX980ti FPS in Cherno and everywhere else I go: 60 - all settings to MAX It would likely be more if I turned off vsync but honestly 60 fps is perfectly fine for me at the moment. Everything looks great and it is stable as hell. High end hardware works wonders on this game.

LOL. "Worst optimization" ? You know the game has not actually been optimized yet? I've same specs as you with exception of 6700k (same Ghz though) - my steam FPS readout is pegged at 60 FPS no matter where I go. Everything set to MAX.

HEY! I'm trying to eat lunch here. Yeash.

lots of handrails spawn at the guard posts. also look for crashed humvees, I've seen them there too. wood and plastic

you forgot one: SSD ! Made a huge difference for my AMD (FX-8150 Zambezi 8-Core 3.6GHz) + GTX550Ti machine.

my biggest gripe about zombies- even beyond what you mention, WATER! Human bodies whether zombie or infected or whatever do not work without water. You've got maybe 1 week without fluids. After that cells just don't work. There's no way a body is going to run after not having a drink of something after a week. dessicated cells ain't gonna do their thing. No virus is gonna get around basic cellular biology. So unless these infected are popping cans of kvas on the DL, the whole discussion is just silly.

La Palma restaurant in SF's mission district. Get the Chicharrones tacos de canasta.

Positive, dragged the bottle icon onto the rags and chose spray disinfectant on rags and immediately got the 'sick' notification. There was no 'I have drank disinfectant' message or anything like that.

PFPFf... And you call yourself British?! Gordon Bennett, what a muppet.

I got the sick message immediately after spraying some rags with disinfectant. Nothing I did would help. charcoal, constant eating and drinking only prolonged my life. It took about an hour to kill me. /beta

Go boil some haddock you silly walking, grimy limey!

Tried the ladder with tent in my hands. Didn’t work. I tried throwing it. Didn’t work. Jumped. Broke leg, ruined pants and boots. Is there a way to do it without injury?

yeah, tried that a few times before getting too close to the opening and fell, with the tent still in the stand. D'oh! Two pairs of boots and two broken legs later I got it down, took two days before someone found where I stashed it. I now think tents are not worth the effort.

Thanks. what a pain.

I understand the removal of easy to find cans of food. But since .55 dropped I haven't seen 1 deer, cow, boar or rabbit. I've got a trap sitting empty for hours... my stomach grumbles.

You are correct that certain physical parts of the brain control certain physical functions, sight, motor control, lymbic response etc. But the notion that "Logic" is controlled by the left hemisphere of the brain and "creativity" is controlled by the right side is proven to be utter balderdash. Logic and creativity are far too complex and require lots of input from lots of different regions of our brains. Another scientific study debunking the claim that (for example) "the left side of the brain is responsible for logic" An Evaluation of the Left-Brain vs. Right-Brain Hypothesis with Resting State Functional Connectivity Magnetic Resonance Imaging Lateralized brain regions subserve functions such as language and visuospatial processing. It has been conjectured that individuals may be left-brain dominant or right-brain dominant based on personality and cognitive style, but neuroimaging data has not provided clear evidence whether such phenotypic differences in the strength of left-dominant or right-dominant networks exist.

That whole 'Left Brain / Right Brain' thing has been debunked. Most people use their whole brain unless they have had a physical injury to a specific region. Lateralization of brain function Broad generalizations are often made in "pop" psychology about one side or the other having characteristic labels, such as "logical" for the left side or "creative" for the right. These labels are not supported by studies on lateralization, as lateralization does not add specialized usage from either hemisphere.[2] Both hemispheres contribute to both kinds of processes,[3] and experimental evidence provides little support for correlating the structural differences between the sides with such broadly-defined functional differences.

yep. Vybor. Turned into one of the barracks rooms and there he was, I had even scoped out the building for a few ticks before going in. We both surprised the hell out of each other. Me: double barrel shotty Him: AK no one came out alive that day...

No, you are talking about an 'I win' button. I never brought it up: I'm no more inclined to argue YOUR 'I win' button than I would be arguing over who would win in a fist-fight Jesus or Santa Claus? Neither exists so the argument is really just pointless. And dangit! OP said there would be peaches! All I see is people with their knickers all twisted up.

LOL. A Dayz dev who aims to encourage server hopping. Hey Jexter! Look who's not playing the game right now! HAHHHAHAERRRRR. Oh Gord that's rich.

Until I see an 'I win' button, any argument that extreme is pointless. Some folks have fun server hopping, some don't. If you don't, then unwedge the pink lace fringed low-rise polkadot thong from betwixt your cheeks and don't hop. Seems the easiest solution.

Oh, that must be just horrible for you. You have my deepest sympathies for your tragic loss of uh, ... something. Just so I can have a more accurate mental picture, please tell me, are they the frilly kind or the satin kind?

Exactly right. I play for fun. I wouldn't find a 'I win' button fun. Since Dayz doesn't really have an end per se, your extreme lacks relevance. If I'm lucky I get about an hour of gameplay every other day. Most of the time is spent getting all of my home made leather goods going. I'll travel from one base to another while hunting. I get to my destination, loot the barracks etc. and log out. If time permits (it usually doesn't) I'll hit another server, loot the same barracks and go hunting to the next base, loot and log out. Next time I play I loot the same barracks and hunt during my journey to the next MB. Rinse repeat. It's not like I just sit there at the barracks and go from server to server for hours on end. But I will hit the same barracks at least once on a different server before I go back into the bush. If I were better at shooting arrows I'd probably ditch the MBs altogether. But they are where I get ammo mostly. This game affords different play styles. I don't get why people get their panties in sucha twist over hoppers.
