Which settings/launch parameters are these, exactly? -cpuCount=4 -ExThreads=7 -maxMem=8192 -maxVRAM=1023 -malloc=system all these or only some of them? -

I have to agree with OP that this is a problem. This is, it all depends on the situation. If you have to suddenly stop because you are startled or something else unexpected happens, then yes you may have a longer stopping distance. However, if you have less than a second to prepare for stopping, your brain will already have the strategy for stopping in a short distance, moving your center of mass a bit back and using muscle power to stop (providing there is good grip to the ground). The game doesn't know if I've already made up my mind to stop at a certain point, or if I have to because a threat showed up in the last 0.5 seconds. This is the reason I think it should be removed.

Thanks for the idea. *evil laughter* 8)

To me it doesn't crash, but it seems that after a while (maybe 30 minutes) the game starts lagging badly, like less than 10 fps.

So I noticed that items hav approximate weight displayed, since the latest patch. It does this affect anything yet, or it is just for show until later? EDIT: Items HAVE weight

I'm getting mixed messages here.

It doesn't fit on mosins now, right? What does it fit on?

Makes no sense.

Rust did it and it was well received. I think it is perfectly reasonable to expect 3pp removal.

Considering DayZ is supposed to be realistic, it is more like a vegetarian walking into a vegetarian restaurant, only to find out the restaurant was just lying and does indeed serve steak. Was actually quite crappy said. /continue thread

Something that is nice regarding quiet zombies, is that when you hear the footsteps you don't know whether it is a player or a zombie. Makes for some nice tension. :)

This is what is commonly called "rubberbanding", is that correct?

If the devs won't confirm that sudden cardiac arrest is in the game, it probably isn't. Myths have a life of their on once they've gotten a foothold.

So just now, I had my first hero/good guy/bandit hunter experience. After getting into trouble and mystically killed by zombies while trying to shoot some innocent player with the MP-shotgun, I spawned near Cherno. At first, I thought I was going to to the same routine, which is spawn: start running around and looking for people to get into fights with. However, I don't see a single soul, even though it is a 40/40 server. Whole Cherno void of people, save for the occasional zombie. I run around for a while. I find basic gear, a Blaze Double Rifle but I only find five bullets for it. After running around in Cherno screaming "hello, hello" with an indian accent and running up and down the main streets, without even getting shot at by some distant sniper, I decide to instead go to Elektro. However, an impulse strike my mind: instead of running into town, getting into a fight and ding fairly quickly, why not walk into the forest, go around and come up on on one of the sniper hills from behind, and see if there are any sniping lurkers around? Said and done, I sneak through the forest, taking my time. As I get closer to Elektro, I hear shots fired and start making my way towards the sound. At this point, I have become a little less careful because of impatience, so I'm actually running instead of sneaking. Then suddenly, as I get to about here ( http://dayzdb.com/map#7.097.131) I see a faint anomaly lying on the ground. Could it be? Yes, it could be. Too close to comfort, on my right. Did he hear me coming? Raising my Blaze, I see his head turning in my direction. Remember that scene from Jurassic Park? That was pretty much what happened, except the raptor had a Blaze Double Rifle. Then the sliding corpse bug made him slide down into the open, making the looting some nervous business. Quick loot, free Mosin with attachments + High Capacity Vest. Wham, bam, tank you ma'am! So yeah, first time bandit hunting. Nice adrenalin rush. Might continue this path! Gonna have to kill a lot of bandits to make up for all my brutal murders, though.

B-but... how will I 360 noscope? :(

Did I mention I hide behind walls?

I suppose you're totally fine with me camping behind walls, waiting for people to come running so I can walk out and pop them, then? Because that's what I do when I'm on 3pp servers because 3pp is just too ridiculous to take seriously. :)

Haven't seen them either, since 0.53. :/

I think that's actually connected to his clothing, and the pespective is making it look like it is on the gun.

This would be exploited. I could see myself having insanely fun as I run around, not picking up weapons or engaging in combat, just annoying people all day since they can't hurt me.

It is not a matter of encouraging or not. I'm just playing by the rules the game set for me. If you don't want server hopping to occur, then convince the developers to force people not to by simply removing the option. I am all for removing the ability of travelling between dimesions, but as long as I am able and allowed to I will, since if I don't, it puts me at a disadvantage compared to other players.

Tall towers, two at each end and on each side of the runway.

NWAF, run to the sniper nests and check them. No Mosin? Server hop to a new server. Rinse and repeat.

I still haven't dared travel there as I'm afraid of losing my backpack in the water. :(

And here I am, shooting the ladies as fast as I can as I assume they are bait. :|
