    Unluckiest Thing That Happened To You?

    Two things I can recall. First: Fully geared, NVG, rfinder, coyote, gps, dmr, m4sd, m9sd and a jeep stacked full of gear. I was driving nearly full speed down the road between pustoshka and vybor and a broken truck didn't stream in until the last second (literally). Kaboom, lost everything. Was also carpet bombed once with pretty much the same gear, lost a truck too. Second: I was being shot at in Berezino, I was on the top of the supermarket. Got put onto about 2k blood before I spotted the guy and put a burst of M16 in his skull. I bandaged up, took morphine and as I pressed esc to climb down the ladder my keys bugged up and my guy sprints off the roof and I fall to my death losing everything. Shortly after the server restarted so I couldn't try to retrieve my gear. Sorry for the poor typing im on my phone.
  2. To all those showing interest, I'm going to bed now but tomorrow I'll PM you all the TS details and hopefully we can sort something out.

    FPS Problems

    Hey guys, I'm a huge fan of the mod but it's getting extremely frustrating to play because I have terrible FPS the majority of the time. I've read some threads on solutions to improve your FPS and have been able to ever so slightly increase it, however it is still terrible. When I am in an open area with no trees/buildings around, I peak at around 30 FPS, it ranges from 25-30. However, when I head into a dense area like a forest or a city, or even if I look/zoom in on these areas my FPS can drop to anywhere between 10-15. This makes the game almost unplayable. I play the game with everything on very low or disabled and 1024x768 resolution, however I still lag. Some of my computer specs: Intel Core i3 Processor i3-550 4GB RAM 1TB HDD ATI Radeon HD 5450 w/ 1GB VRAM Any help would be fantastic Bump. Can anyone help? This is the second troubleshooting thread I've made and I've had no responses.
  4. Bumping this thread for any aus/nz guys who want to form a group.
  5. If anyone would like to jump on the TS server I can PM you the details, just let me know. Maybe we could even form a group if we get enough people, we don't need many.
  6. Oh awesome. Well I've got a group of guys I know that are often on TS, we aren't very organised but there's about 5-6 of us. If you wanted to get TS3 I could give you the IP?
  7. Hey guys, Just looking for a decent sized group to play with who have their own vent/teamspeak and are looking for another member. I've played the game for about two weeks, I've got decent gear and I'm very familiar with the map and the games mechanics. I'm 18 and live in Victoria (GMT+10).

    The luckiest days of your lives:

    The luckiest loot drop I have ever gotten was from my first helicopter crash site. There was an FN FAL ANPV S4, an M107 and a DMR, all with mags. The drop rates for these are ridiculously low, and it was at a crash site as well! I was stoked. My luckiest loot from an act of banditry came just moments ago, from a poor, and slightly stupid soul in Vybor. I was crawling around with my buddy, we had just raided the supermarket and were about to head out of town when I heard silenced gunfire. My buddy couldn't hear it so I went in the direction I heard the shots and ended up hearing them again, this time right on the opposite side of the wall. I hurried around the wall, leaned out and saw him firing at a group of zed's with an SD M4. He was facing away from me so I emptied a few rounds into him and he dropped. He was packing an M4 CCO SD with 3 mags, a DMR, NVG and a ghillie suit, which for some reason I couldn't pick up. Paranoid as ever as I made my way back to my campsite.

    Just a DayZ 1.7.1.5 gameplay

    The 'cod fan kids' is getting really annoying, old and ignorant. Couldn't bring myself to watch the video after I read the description.
  10. Hi guys, I'm having a little bit of trouble with the game, most of these problems occurred after I updated to 1.7. Inventory Problems I believe this is a common bug, but my version of the bug seems to be a tad different. When I press G to open my inventory and click on an item it automatically starts scrolling through all my items so I can't do things like drop an item. I've been told the way to fix this is by pressing TAB, although this never works. It also seems to be permanent, even leaving and rejoining servers does not resolve it. Vehicle Interface Ever since 1.7, each time I enter a vehicle I have only got a small box in the top left corner of my screen which shows fuel and the overall status of my vehicle (It's like a shield, sort of a HP bar), so it no longer tells me the status of the engine, hull, wheels etc. Also possibly related to this, whenever I press F to change to flares or change between semi-auto and full-auto on weapons I cannot see the text displaying whether it is Full or Semi. Spawn Location Text Whenever I spawn I can hear the sound of the text appearing, however the text does not appear so I am never told where I spawn. Sporadic Disconnects Now this is more than likely something on my end, but I'm baffled nonetheless. Often when I'm in-game, out of nowhere I will begin lagging and then receive the "No message received" message. I've noticed a pattern, every time this happens I get a red chain, which changes to a yellow chain, then the disconnect. I am not disconnecting from anything else like Teamspeak etc. Any help regarding any of these problems would be greatly appreciated.
