    Where to find a sniper rifle in 0.60

    3out of 4 showed 0 in, 1 Winchester on the construction site. the 4th was littered on the crane. could be possible, it may have been a master hive and not a slave hive. I was pretty much the first on those servers to test it out, pretty much most of them missing spawns or very low numbers. just 1 had 4 Winchesters, and 1 cr527

    It appears they might have taken the massive spawns away, rarity maybe back in.

    Can't launch DayZ since windows10 update

    That is possible my updates might work again. Ill try to update once again. -dayz is fine.
  4. The reason why some like to be playing offline is to learn the map, build a base without someone just plan stealing everything you locate in a matter of time either by exploits or broken engine updates. the next mode is to reduce the number of players greifing you while your on the coast, after death or getting killed in pvp. Exploiters and random campers. I do agree some people just want to pve and have problems finding a good server. (they deserve an offline mode or a pve server) I respect that. Buying the game today is only experiencing what is done, not promises of the past reports. Every thing should be taken down on the web, because we are no where near that point or maybe never be. the game works, but expect tons of exploits, and tons of issues with the game client. They are repairing everything we are reporting as suggested by the devs. Its still buyers beware your interacting with others in a hostile environment and never get attached to your gear. I am a kos, pvp player so i do know where this player is coming from. I have some on our squad that do not want to pvp just pve.

    Does SSD will improve my gameplay?

    actually anything that runs the same or better then gpu - cpu to stream line a -------------------- flat read and write is always a good thing. anything that reads and writes faster or has that ability to is good for the future. Anything that reads and writes slower then your gpu-cpu ability is going to crap out, bottleneck and cause random hick ups. So why wouldn't a SSD be a huge performance increase? it maybe over kill for some, but benefits other reasons. Taken from my CNC repairs.

    State of the game?

    Infected are in most cities, and high military locations. Your first statement how is the state of the game? it is massive repair to re catalog the items to the new render engine. Otherwise if your looking for a finished game it is not and it is broken.

    Does SSD will improve my gameplay?

    2 @ ssd mirror raid is nice with solid state. It does improve over sata drives. I recommend learning how to mirror you drives. Do the samsung evo pro drives because they are the top of the line. 256gb or better, the prices have been dropping. Review articles like this what raid you may want. Gaming systems, with sata drive backups are nice with raid -0 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_RAID_levels#Performance Example from the article Some benchmarks of desktop applications show RAID 0 performance to be marginally better than a single drive mine are doubling the speed of the ssd over 1000 for read and 700ish for write, but those are approx, i would need to review the old tests i did. I am forgetting. some sata 3 drives will be 170ish. ssd is 550/550 + in some cases.

    You mean private with a password, as server admin ping restrictions have not been banning people with 1200 pings. For the people you trust in, should be the way but alias not all private have been safe. True story too.

    DayZ Not working

    I really feel badly for people who buy laptops under the assumption from the seller (usually a box store) it will play video games for years to come. In fact the real costs are huge to play what we can on a cheaper pc. I have been in this industry for too long and sometimes i do sound sour, it usually isn't against the person in general it is the people that sell the shit to you i am so aggressive with. Believe me i do help where and when i can even if i come off a sour puss.

    DayZ Not working

    Here is what should be posted as a sticky, not going to explain it. I5 or i7 CPU Quad core, 8gb or 16gb recommended, SSD drive recommend, 500gb sata 3 or better, gtx 900 series or greater. Not going to recommend AMD until all the issues are solved for gaming.

    DayZ Not working

    300 dollar laptop doesn't play games. 700 dollar laptop doesn't play games 1500 dollar laptop doesn't play games very well 3000+ well your good most likely with the gamers logo w/gpu a desktop 1000 + gets you into the game. So you tell me general zod how that doesn't help anyone? edit= we need a sticky of the real requirements not some laptop that was suppose to be used for homework. It once worked now it doesnt thread. Cranky? yeah i just got up and need a coffee first, post.

    High Capacity Vest not spawning in 0.60

    yup can confirm seen over 10 of them spawn, on all the people i saw tonight.
  15. I got one of those troop trucks today, had 2 front tires, 1 spare tire was ready to turn over np, there was tires missing on the rear side but it still flew down the road at a whooping 15-30 mph. I tried to turn it worked fine, but would not move through the grassy areas, and onto the road. There was no sloop. So i went and found a rear tire in hopes the v3s or whatever troop truck would get over a centimeter hill. Everything was worn to pristine. No matter what i tried to do, it would not climb any hills i kept getting speeds of 10 mph or less and it wanted to keep reversing on me. Like is there some trick to it? Because i remember a standard truck with Loads of horsepower no matter what the ages are. These trucks are suppose to be built like tanks. Working as intended? I put over 60 rounds in it in hopes i would blow the thing up. Help me??? i spent a ton of time trying to get over a small hill.

    Can't launch DayZ since windows10 update

    https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/fix-windows-10-no-sound-issue/ Read aug 1st thats exactly what i found first, then TS and dayz wouldn't work. August 1, 2016 at am4:53 After following instructions here I have my sound back but it’s so low that I can not hear it as it’s so faint. It’s fine on YouTube but Netflix or any other such programs volumn is so low I can’t hear the programs. reasons are why windows 10 had to be fixed as far as i know was the problem with UE4 AMD sound?? and poor performances AMD had in general with games. It was outdated in windows from what i gathered months ago. Example info As I mentioned UE4 uses Microsofts XAudio2 engine. Since windows Vista (~2007) games using this API offload all sound processing onto the CPU, the sound card will then do its portion afterwords filtering or enhancing based on the cards specs. However the CPU is still processing the sound primarily. FX processors are processing the sounds 6 times slower than intel, there is a UE4 forum with Epic employees stating these figures. They are working on a replacement for XAudio2 Tack on everything else going through the single core on top of that and you see it get bogged down. Even Intel + Nvidia cards have a limited FPS on larger servers, albeit much higher FPS overall, due to server limitations which will be optimized in the future. So this maybe the update we where waiting for but it damaged something in my system with audio.

    Can't launch DayZ since windows10 update

    OK it was the sound patch i got with updates that would not launch dayz. I had to revert my windows 10 to last, and the soundblaster z worked again. I did updates too last week and the same issue happened.

    A doctor's suggestions for DayZ's medical system

    No we get more raincoats, hats, footwear, changes of buildings around cities and more bugs. I have only seen a few weapons actually spawning, the rest are being worked on. i forgot heatpacks, batteries, pens, clothing, shovels, hoes, hardhats, seeds, and more seeds and did i say hoes? oh and tons of tires.

    A doctor's suggestions for DayZ's medical system

    don't we still die like that? oh wait that's hyper-thermal my face is melting bug... clothing heat and the accelerated hunger - water is crazy... they need to fix that, it is so unrealistic.

    Identify players with Binoculars, Longrange scope etc.

    BI devs wont add it possible? but most of us will most likely add it to modded servers. As long as the scripting side of things are fairly close to the arma2, arma3. Having clan only ones for pvp isnt a bad thing, having scoped, bio's over a long distanced range is ok with me, but not the map icons. I would rather just have map icons for grouped/clan players, like sat view. Not the whole server it is abused.

    Trucks is there a trick to them now?

    The hatchback and the sedan drive very well, you have to still be careful. FSP will drop in rain by a ton, your drawing too much graphics at very high going from 120 fps to 7 fps in 3rd person. the trick is to switch to 1st person it will go from 7fps to 50+ fps while in 1st. Right now they might as well take 3rd person off and get 1st person working right. then put in 3rd person. If only they could raise the bus and truck from 1-2 kms to 20kms from 0 to max 1st gear rpms we would have no issues driving it up and down hills. But the way it stands right now, its dangerous to drive and also dangerous to try and change a tire with. Make sure you don't hit obstacles in the ground such as arrows someone does on purpose and trees. I give the hatchback 10/10 with minor tweaks. i give the sedan 10/10 with minor tweaks. I give road signs -10/10 for not destructing when you hit them :)

    DayZ Not working

    I am going to tell you something, laptops where not designed to play pc games in the first place, you have to spend a ton of money which does you no good in 4-6 years after. Being in the industry for so long i can tell you they over heat, they bottleneck, and your finding non support now. Now real way to upgrade them, because they are designed for today's game not tomorrows. A standard laptop may have worked before,how good is a good question. A gamer laptop is very costly. So do yourself a favor if you want to play newer games, build a gamer pc with the option to upgrade or simply wait until it comes on Play station or Xbox if it ever does. All a laptop is really good for is space.

    Trucks is there a trick to them now?

    Started to transport my camp to the middle of the map for event server on saturday night. Bus did a whole 360 on me, and killed me. 3 ak101's 1ak 2 mp5 a ton of ammo, full ammo can, gillies, all the bus was full of equipment for a server event. You know what i can say about/to your game devs ............... Best you remove vehicles as arrows, objects spins them or pushes them across the map. Because right now i don't think you guys know how to deal with them. Safety tip of the day Don't get attached to your gear folks as the vehicles will kill you. In this case the bus on the railroad tracks spun, with the tires in my hand and went a full 360 degrees.

    Where are the animals in 0.60?

    I have seen tons of deer, and cows all over the map from cherno north, and west. They are in herds and run away when you see them.
