    Frustrated With FPS/Performance, Need Help

    It varies from person to person, but i found without it set to very high my fps is never stable. To be honest, the only way your going to get a steady high frame rate is by spending a large amount of money on a reliable desktop. Just tinker around a little with the settings until you find the optimal settings for your PC.

    Ouch, post processing is not nice, the blur is horrible...

    I didn't see a server thread for this, so I thought I would set one up. I only play on this server with my friends and am not an admin or anything, just was wondering if anyone else was regularly playing this server...

    Nah hosted by Raphex, I prefer it as less populated most the time...

    Lower some of the core video settings (texture detail) and set your video memory usage to very high. That seems to work for me.
  7. What you talking about?! We have the tools to kill, THE RABBITS!!!!!!! They...must...die!!!! ;)
  8. On many occasions I seem to run into this problem where after running a reasonably long distance to find loot in an area, that no loot spawns and occasionally no zombies spawn. I don't think it's a server problem as none of my group seem to have this problem so I usually put it down to my IP not syncing with the server correctly, therefore causing the server not to trigger the spawning near to me. However it seems to happen more and more so I was wondering if anyone else experiences this/has any fixes? Sorry if this is a duplicate, but I have no idea how I would search for this :P

    Anyone else experiencing this???

    I don't know, why would people take EVERY tin can and whiskey bottle?

    Anyone else experiencing this???

    I think stuff spawns (zombies/loot) as you trigger it when close enough. so this could mean that it could be related to connection and how fast our PCs can sync with the server telling it where we are. Thats the only possible reason I see for this happening...

    It's pretty good, I get a much more steady connection than on most.

    Poll: DayZ or The War Z?

    Ahhhh, SideStrafe, what a legend...xD

    Poll: DayZ or The War Z?

    Still doesn't mean they haven't just changed the direction of the game in that period...they could have developed a game and engine then in the last 6 months changed it to fit the clear demand for this genre of game.

    Poll: DayZ or The War Z?

    I agree but disagree. I can agree that: yes I would not want to see War Z become better than Day Z because it is original and what I believe to be the beginning of a gaming genre that would be very successful. I want to and would love to see Day Z become as successful it deserves to be and hope that the mod would reach the success of a standalone title which would give the development team and Dean a lot of respect for developing such a fantastic idea. However, you have very much jumped the gun on what I am saying: I am not 'bashing' War Z, I am simply annoyed that many ''Narrow minded fanboys'' would look at War Z and think it to be a huge success and deserves the credit, without acknowledging Day Z to be the original idea that began the genre (which it is, and is even acknowledged by War Z after they stated that they did take some inspiration from Day Z). Don't go ape at me because of what 'fanboys' have annoyed you with...

    Anyone else experiencing this???

    No, usually when I go to loot spawns which are a long distance away...For example I ran from Balota to Zelengorsk supermarket: Nothing spawned there, no zeds, not even a tin can...
  17. HAHA BS matt, you hang back, egging us on to murder them on your behalf ;)
  18. Heres the best way to find friendly players/identify yourself as friendly: Run into player hotspots singing 'Why can't we be friends' in VOIP :D Works everytime...

    Damage Nerf...

    As of the new beta patch rolled out by Bohemia, weapon damage with the core common weaponry in day z, as i am sure most people have noticed. I was wondering if anyone knew if it would stay that way, as 2-4 shots from a .45 M1911 should not be what it takes to take down a zombie, 2 shots seems reasonable and 1 shot was seemed the most appropriate. Does anyone else feel this damage nerf is utter BS???

    Vehicle Protection

    I recently acquired and repaired a bus but to my disappointment found it stolen when i logged in this morning. This got me thinking of ways to protect/secure vehicles to an extent that doesn't compromise certain player styles. My idea is; What if when you finish repairing/save a vehicle for the first time, you acquire a sort of key to the vehicle which can even set it to locked or unlocked. When locked, no one can enter or interact with the vehicle. When unlocked, anyone can enter or interact with the vehicle. I can tell this idea would anouy multiple people already (including myself) so heres the good part. One could possibly utilise a weapon or piece of equipment which would act as a way off damaging the locks on a vehicle. This piece of equipment already exists: a crowbar or hunting knife could be used to damage the locks on a vehicle so no play style is affected by a vehicle security system. This may be considered to tip the scale in favourite of the bandit/criminal so perhaps by damaging these locks, a car alarm would activate, attracting zombies and players a-like to that location. I believe this mechanism suits everyones play style and would be a great feature. Thoughts?
