Whats wrong with 1988? 1988 was a great year. It braught us super mario bros 2 and 3, zelda 2 the adventure of link, and megaman 2. Not to mention its only 3 years behind lemmings and duke nukem. You could even go way farther back then that. Oregon trail is from 1971 and its a Funkin masterpiece!

one of the guys i keep in touch with very regularily i met because of dayz. a friend of mine had a broken leg and was stuck and calling for help and a strange totally geared player showed up amd saved him. he introduced rob to all of us and we all still game regularily. share photos. is probably one of the only people in my life i would call a friend even though we have never shaken hands. never throw away the chance at an amazing interaction just to kos. you may get killed 100 times for saying a friendly hello amd only have one good interaction but i promis when it happens it will be worth it.

so i am going to update tonight but wont be able to get on till monday. Am thinking i want to find a good private server to call home for myself and a few friends but will have to be something that backs up persistance regularily. anyone have any suggestions? would be open to an rp server as long as it isnt all care bears, everyone has to love each other and bullets are replaced with hugs and kisses.

this is what i was referring to.... and it is your post too.... i always do the reading, and the sound effects for all of these states are different.

turning up gamma in obs doesnt affect gameplay. obs is the recording software he uses..... and for the record.... sound would more than easily enough tell u if u are swimming or on solid ground

maybe delaying it would be good news but as long as they are continuing to work on the game after 1.0 i couldn't care less. as for releasing with xbox.... no one cares, true dayz fans have been playing for years on pc and couldnt care less if it hits console at all. (and this is coming from someone who consol games far more often than pc as im too lazy to go downstairs when ps4 is in living room)

......did you have ammo?

hahaha good point. was so busy trying to think of something they could do to balance raiding that i didnt realize how unrealistic it woild be to ruin a sledge, well ever really. its a solid chunk of metal on the end of a solid handle, the damn thing woild last forever. just figured if the items u used to break the walls degraded fast it would either force ppl to come in numbers, or make multiple trips. that woild increase destruction time without having to make the walls out of adamantium. silly me..... i thought the fix would be to make the hammers out of glass instead...... dammit

i agree it should funk up ur sledge pretty good, but 4 hrs for a wall? i would have no incentive whatsoever to protect my base as the ammount of time and materials to break in would be insane. i would say if they went ur route and had to break 4 parts, to use a absolute max of 5 mins per part and to allow multiple parts to be taken down at a time with multiple players. grenades/mines would obliterate a wall instantly and crashing a car into them would do the same with the expense of the car. hiding, multiple perimiters, actually defending, should be how u keep ur shit safe not in game mechanics keeping it safe for u.

best way to keep your base safe will always be the same. have someone online to defend it, or keep it small and hidden. other than that expect that it wil be raided/trolled/destroyed. to avoid ghosting just make sure u are on a private server. don't feel bad if you lose everything, it happens to us all. it will teach you new wayd to defend and will give you a reason to rebuild. safety is great because you never lose any of your own stuff but stockpiling will only eventually get boring.

havent tested it yet so my opinion really doesnt matter much but i like the idea of being able to chop your way into a base with an axe or saw. i just think it should be heavily taxing on the tool you use to break in. for instance make it so that to break 2 fence panels would eliminate 2 pristine fire axes. or driving a car through would destroy the vehicle. this would force people coming to break in to be prepaired. as for defending... you would have to build multiple perimiters to make raiding more difficult. if you think about it most modern homes built with pristine modern materials could probably be chopped into with an axe rather quickly. one of the exterior walls of my current home is stucco, then sheeting of some kind, then studds and hollow cavity (filled with insulation) then a measily layer of drywall. given a good axe and half an hour to an hour i could probably chop my way into almost any house on the block.

if you are having an issue with the forums i would talk to a moderator. try orlok he is awesome at his job and im sure will be able to help you.

please devs do not listen to the people whining about night being dark and please for god sake dont bring back gamma slider. i absolutely love the concept of dark nights being the ultimate equalizer. if people cant handle a little dark they can play on another server. though i would agree time probably shouldnt be 1:1 as then it would always be dark cuz night is the best time to get a few good hours of gaming time for us parents. as for the "grainyness" i have seen many screenshots of nice clear blackness so far. maybe if you are having this issue u should stop trying to exploit gamma through out of game settings

can u refill at petrol stations? just curious, havent booted pc in months. think i will give up waiting and fire it up this week tho

i thought we were just going into beta in a couple months not calling it feature complete. are they skipping beta?

if there is no pressure from xbox, and no pressure from pc, and the fanbase all just wants a complete product released for beta and is willing to wait then what is the point of releasing an unfinished product? you guys have been very transparent in the past but i cant help but feel something is being hidden from us. there has to be some reason to release it evennif it isnt done even though the consumers dont want you to. pressure from investors? threats from big companys? washing your hands of a project? i love the game and would wait 10 more years for the game if it came with all the crafting and survival features, i just would love to not only know whats happening but why.

^^ so much effort. u litterally made a new account just so that you could anonymously troll and flame a heavily contibuting member of the dayz community.... sounds like your time coulda been better spent gaming... even if the servers of whatever game u chose were empty....

is anyone else taken back by the fact that a thread whining (yes whining) about timelines and impatience, has 95 replies and almost 2k views yet the last status report (information of actual significance) has 12 replies and 800ish views? bitching and moaning (pardon my language) doesnt get anything done any faster. the game will get finished, and it will happen when it happens. grab a tissue, whipe ur eyes and blow your nose and then chill. conversations like these do not promote accountability, they do not speed things up, in fact i would say they do nothing but spread salt. just my 2 cents, but i still have faith that the devs will release an amazing feature complete game and if it take 23 more years to do it, im still going to be patiently waiting.

when they speak of basebuilding are they talking about bringing back tents? or are they talking about constructing structures? either would be awesome really, but it would definately be cool to fence or wall in a small spot and build a few small buildings in the forest somewhere.

the point of the game is to survive as long as u can, die, and START AGAIN. not to mention that character wipes are and have been very common throughout the dev process. dont get ur panties in a bunch bro. if you cant handle starting again then maybe its just not the game for you, and i severely doubt lacking patience to get gear is a valid excuse for a refund. were you planning on rage quitting and asking for a refund WHEN (not if) you eventually died?

hahaha why u gotta be such a care bear bro?

they are developing something new on a new engine. i cant imagine how hard it would be to promis anything at all never mind with certainty. it doesnt nake them liars just because they keep hitting road blocks. so one day you tell your (im guessing x from op) girlfriend you will be over in an hour and you start walking over. halfway there some old lady in a rusted out pinto runs you over and you dont get to ur girlfriends till a week later.... should she look at it as you are a liar and a douchebag just because something unexpected happened?

not trolling just responding in sarcasm to the 8000000000th whiny post by someone complaining that dayz is in early access and isnt going as fast as they hoped. we get it. we all want dayz to be finished yesterday so we can park ourselves back in front of our computers till we grow roots. it will be done when its done and complaining about it isnt doing anything productive.

sounds like she cut you deep bro but i dont see why u gotta bring dayz into it.

you should start in .62 just so you can experience the magic of going from .62 to .63. play .62 till they addmore content and then it will be an even more epic moment to switch.
