I don't know what you consider acceptable some people say they can't play under 100fps I'm personally used to playing on old pieced together junk rigs. You should be able to tweak your way into the 20s which is the range of the average human eye. As far as shooting people this game is still un-optimized both graphically and net code wise so potato to beast rigs all suffer from desync and such right now.

[Goodbyes, Tributes and Apologies] Messages for the Dead
BCBasher replied to robophant's topic in General Discussion
I want to apologize to the chicken in Msta, I missed you twice with my blaze from 20 feet away and I appreciate that you sat still and let me reload and send a third shot right up your poop-chute you were delicious and nutritious. -
I'm playing on similar specs with modified medium settings to take load off the cpu at 3840X720 I get low teens to low twenties for fps so you'd probably be doing a bit better than that is you're only running a single display.

Hive / Servers temporarily out of order.
BCBasher replied to northofnowhere's topic in General Discussion
If you played during the mess for any amount of time you might be stuck, if it doesn't fix itself BI isn't going to fix it for you. -
Not last time WOBO did detailed testing awhile ago, chest holster all the way to press vest were the same. If the gaurdhouses are still puking vests on stable it would be a good time to test them all again though.
-
I was thinking about that vid, are the gaurdhouses still puking vest on stable? it'd be a good time to re-test if so.

TIL that DayZ runs much smoother on Windows 10.
BCBasher replied to Grimey Rick's topic in General Discussion
Silly question but I'm the "nerd" in my family that everyone gives their shitty old virused up laptops to when the go buy another box store pos. I don't have the sticker/serial for my desktop anymore could I use a scrap computer Windows serial for the upgrade? -
Anyone else finds more people in the mod than in SA?
BCBasher replied to mike49's topic in General Discussion
Wow, I'm just having a blast on exp, better fps, hunting for truck parts, etc. not interested in everyone having an a AK land right now. -

You haven't played exp. in awhile? .58 is less broken than stable. -
Yes, we need a gear grind and micro-transactions to motivate us to play! Seriously if the put that shit in I'm out.

FOOOOOOOOOR TUUUUUUUUUULLLLLLLGGGGGGAAAAAAA! *kicks your ass down the well*

Bows>Guns? That's exactly why we bow to our indigenous North American overlords, lol.

Not on stable, but exp. is persistent right now. We have had 3 wipes since last week but at least you can hoard for a couple days. Whenever .58 goes stable it should be back though.
-
Junior noticed the church bell for the first time last week, pretty sure I've heard it before. He froze in the middle of the street "what's that?", "is it automatic, there's no power?", "if not who's ringing it?". We rarely go in cities and i explained they're the worst place to stand in the middle of the street asking questions.

The first rule of Tulga club is?

Teaching my 9yo daughter how to recover my gear when I fuck up. First piece of loot I've seen at a humvee in .58 exp so I run up like a dummy, you see me crouch at the end when I figure out what it is and think maybe I can disarm it. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ka4esxZBywc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> **how in the hell do you get an embedded video to show here?**

I prefer playing with my 15 year old son because he's very organized and metodical. The younger ones see how much fun he's having and have to try too usually a less than one hour session ending watching a pumpkin patch, telling me "this is boring, can I just shoot you?". Over the long run it's a good setting to teach stuff like when someone tells you to "duck" you don't pause and ask "why?".

Question regarding vehicle persistence/respawning
BCBasher replied to FlimFlamm's topic in General Discussion
This was awhile back but trucks were persistent junior an I found a truck, we drove right in to nwaf, found another in front of the hangars, he got out an drove the second. We got around behind the tent city there and found a third, so we decided to blow up the first one because the 2 new ones had been reset and were full of fuel. We started a fire beside the truck and put a spray paint can in and stepped back to a safe distance. When they're destroyed all the wheels and glass is gone, the hood too I believe and it'll have a rusty charred texture on the model. It' completely despawned within a minute or two, I'm assuming to respawn back at a spawn point. We didn't stick around for a reset though. We've rolled them, blew all the tires and gas tanks and come back right after a reset to recover them but I'm pretty sure if they're "destroyed" they despawn and go back into the respawn pool. -
I run 3840X720 and the screen shots at that resolution are distorted at the edges. I can't play non WSG now that my periphery has be spoiled but I look forward to the day when they compensate spherical distortion. 21:9 obviously is a little less stretched at the edges than 16:3, I'd like to got to 5X40" 1080 tvs next time but I can just imagine the stretch and unintentional zoom on the 2 outermost displays. Here's some screens from my 3X32" with the graphics set to one click above potato to make up for my 7 year old mobo/cpu. http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198035604492/screenshots/

That makes more sense, I think you're right and they may have just lowered the temp in exp feeling things out. Overall I think it's cool though if the game is going to be a good survival sim, a wrong turn should be able to kill you just as easy as a any player.
-
Has anyone done anything to see if different servers are different temperatures? I'm starting to wonder because I spawned in fresh on exp today and I can't shake my cold status even though I'm wearing a motorcycle helmet and alternating sprint/jog. I made a wrong turn and and don't have a hope of fixing my stats because the cold is eating calories faster than I can put them in with berries and apples, usually I get through this part pretty easy.
-
Based on what I'm seeing on exp when .56/.57 rolls out rain gear will be anywhere but at the boats on the coast. I Haven't played on stable in a few weeks.
-
I don't know about you but for me living on an island I get my fill of the beach IRL. I spawn in and head for the hills and I'm not having any of the "game breaking" problems the coast rats suffer.
-
I wish the spooked bird sound meant something, that and when the birds go silent are awesome cues as to whether you are alone in the woods or not. Around here if they go silent and it's not from me that usually means one of them sees a martin (weasel type thing) or possibly a cougar actively hunting them. If they get all loud and angry sounding it's just an owl who will only strike if they're unaware. The chainlink gate in the middle of nowhere is just plain stupid though.

I'm dying for .57 on exp, been playing .56 and eating more packaged food than before. Just gather for 20-30mins until you get past the "rage quit" line and it's all there. To the guy who said kill someone for their beans it'll be more like nicely ask the survivor heading back from the north for some food so you can make it far enough to get anything to kill anything with.
