    Vehicles (and wheels) – spawn, despawn, persistence

    Hey I got one too.

    Exp Update: 0.59 (+hotfix).

    I took the perfect picture to encapsulate 0.59.

    Vehicles (and wheels) – spawn, despawn, persistence

    We have destroyed multiple vehicles with bullets by the way. Just throwing that out there.
  4. Left4Dead: Chernarussian Edition will require a smaller map or some special zombie powers like the ability to sniff out survivors. Otherwise, I will hang out in Belaya Polana and troll the server by keeping myself out of harm's way and not following the goals of the gamemode. Three days later, when a single zombie finally finds me, I will shoot it and then move to Black Lake. See what I'm getting at here? Also, I have to point out that if the goal here is to make the survivors work together, that's not going to happen. The survivors will kill each other. Guaranteed. It even happens in games like Halo where some idiot will get annoyed that you picked up the sniper rifle and kill you to get it. That principle applies to the power of 1000 for this game.

    Which GPU should I go with for DayZ?

    What I'm saying is that if I were to max every single setting, not do any config tweaks, and go into Cherno, Elektro, Novo, etc., I would have a minimum framerate of 23. It would not go lower than that as far as I can tell. However, you can do a few config file tweaks to make that minimum number a solid 30 FPS. Outside of cities, I get 45-60, but I do use Vsync and I have done some extra tweaking via editing my config file. Most PC players don't use Vsync, but I hate screen tearing with an absolute passion. I didn't spend $1500 on my rig to look at choppy lines all the time. If you turn off Vsync, you can get 70-90, perhaps more depending on scene composition and the settings under the Video -> Rendering section of the menu. Also, those numbers are all only going to increase. The new renderer and subsequent optimizations have not been implemented yet. DX 12 should represent another improvement later down the line as well. EDIT: Also, continue to do research and get other opinions before you buy anything. I am of the opinion that one should learn as much as they can before they buy stuff like this. You might decide, for example, that an AMD FX series processor is more in line with what you are looking for.

    Then go for an i5-4690k and a Z97 mobo that has the features and price you are looking for. BI games like Intel's per core performance. Get a GTX 960 to go with it. Should come in around the price point you are aiming for. The 960 should do well once optimzations have taken place for DayZ as well. With a little cfg tweaking, you can get 30 minimum FPS in DayZ on the 4690k. Doesn't take too much either. My 970 + 4690k gets a minimum of 23 FPS on all max settings @ 1080p.

    DayZ SA Modding: A New Map

    The government probably is out to get you but having an M4 in your hand only guarantees that you get shot and killed immediately and won't have the opportunity to help us with the underground resistance later when Hugo Weaving shows up. Please at least consider keeping it on topic.

    Which GPU should I go with for DayZ?

    $550 for all three upgrades?

    Dayz Reviews on Steam

    Bookmarking so I can hold Synystr to his "eating my words" post next year.

    Thank you. :D :beans:

    Exp Update: 0.59 (+hotfix).

    Yeah, I forgot to report that one. I stole this thumbnail from the internet. I saw it many years ago and always loved it. It just fits too perfectly here.

    Exp Update: 0.59 (+hotfix).

    Can confirm. Same issue with M1911 and CR75. Just won't work if the gun has attachments on it. I'm guessing this is similar to how you can only mount a bipod when the AK Rail Handguard is painted black. EDIT: Also, I forgot about this - https://feedback.dayz.com/view.php?id=29241 I guess I already reported it.

    VSS is as loud as an unsuppresed weapon

    They already did a fair amount of the recording. The Audio subforum of the Developer section has a post about it. The UMP45 and the SVD just got new sounds so I imagine the VSS will to. As far as I can tell, the VSS is really just using the same sound as a suppressed AK.

    VSS is as loud as an unsuppresed weapon

    But surely you would agree that the VSS as it is currently in game is much louder than it is supposed to be?

    Steyr AUG magazines?

    You CAN PAINT IT BLACK?!?!?! You win. (Not sarcasm) This changes everything. Side note: It still amazes me how much I learn about this game after 1200 hours.

    Steyr AUG magazines?

    I assumed this was fixed in the last hotfix. I've been using a Kashtan for a week with zero issues. Also, the RV1 and M68 both work perfectly fine (except on the MP5 which has misaligned sights no matter what sight you are using). You know what's funny about that? Both of these guns have a higher DPS than the AKS-74u. The UMP-45 is second only to the Vintorez.

    A huge problem with V3S

    #1 reason I've been completely against the very idea since the moment I heard about it. Then I flew around in Arma 3 on the old Chernarus map. Took me 4 or 5 minutes to get from take off around NWAF to Elektro and landing. In a relatively slow chopper that I only used because I happened to enjoy it aesthetically. Don't worry. I know it's happening no matter what I think or say so I will keep my grumblings to a minimum. :P

    Steyr AUG magazines?

    Super easy to replace. Another tick in the "Pro" column for AKM.
  19. ColdAtrophy

    Steyr AUG magazines?

    Good choice, imo. That's what I did. There aren't many problems that a bipodded, drum-fed AKM with a Kashtan can't fix. Ammo is now rarely available in civilian locations in addition to mil spawns too.
  20. ColdAtrophy

    Steyr AUG magazines?

    Once you find the mags (I found two in approximately 30-40 heli crashes), you then have to contend with a general lack of ammo availability. I suggest ditching it for an AKM.
  21. How would your idea not penalize people who aren't kicking constantly?

    Stable Branch - 0.59 Discussion

    Paint the AK Handguard Rail with black spray paint.

    M4 Spawning in 0.59?

    Hey buddy. I've gone way out of my way to ignore you and specifically NOT reignite your asinine argument. You've made it very difficult to maintain a mature attitude and take the high road. I've also not stated anything specifically with regard to 0.59 and the M4. Keep in mind: It's not what you are saying. IT WAS NEVER WHAT YOU WERE SAYING. It was ALWAYS how you are saying it. You pestered me for an entire fucking day in PM, throwing a temper tantrum and getting yourself timed out and watched by mods. You can have whatever opinion you want. You cannot and will not bad mouth the devs like a 2 year old and the rest of us will just roll over for you while you act like a fucking assshole. I'm perfectly okay with you thinking the M4 doesn't spawn. I mean it. I really couldn't find a way to give less of a fuck if I tried. I do not like you continually calling me out by name and treating the devs with zero respect. These guys bend over backwards for us and put up with a retarded amount of shit from people like you and the re-re squads on Twitter and Reddit. Go pull that shit elsewhere. NOT HERE. I'm reporting your post, just so you know. I've had enough of your harassing bullshit.
