  1. Lucky. It would overpower the gun way to much. You could... Actually aim it. Sometimes, balances is a key, even to this game.

    Need help. arma 2 free + steamOA

    http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/How_to_install_DayZ You have to download Free to Play off the website. Free to play works fine compared to Combined Ops by the way. I have it and very few problems (Usually my fault anyhow.)

    DayZ on consoles

    Are we brother's lost at birth. Crysis i think was one of the best PC games of all times. ***************************************************************************************************************************************** I made a similar thread: http://dayzmod.com/f...ayz-on-console/ The thread states my opinion about going console. Its meant to be a discussion about it, possible convinces others of a different idea. Its meant to make people think. Something a lot of people I'm noticing can't do. (I read through all the post in this thread, I'm not a complete moron.)

    DogZ!

    Great find. I want a dog so bad now. Edit: The point of a Alpha is to test new features, and figure out how to fix big bugs. Make it know that the bugs exist, but don't go crazy over it.

    Rocket, Please don't. (Dayz on Console).

    @Console trolls how don't know about there own system. When your answer is intelligent, i will listen. You do know that Xbox 360 and PS3 only support DX8 right. You know that BF3's frame rate on consoles is 24, and it runs under 720p. You do know that COD is very linear, and small. There is not a lot of rendering going on. Most is pretty pictures placed in the game. You do know that all game trailers are filmed on PC. You do know that the Console is 7 Years old, and PC is 100% + stronger. (Example: Crysis can run decently on a Intel HD 3000, well Crysis 2 with it more streamline engine can't. Crysis engine was made for PC first, way before the Console port was a idea. Crysis 2 was ported to PC.) You do know that the ARMA 2 engine continually updates, putting new graphically features in. Im sure there is more things, but this is to just show how your statement is wrong and non intelligent. ***************************************************************************************************************************************** Again, To port this game, he would have to streamline it (Simplify) which would effect the game quality on PC. Or rebuild it from the ground up. Which would mean that you basically are making a new game. That much support would have to come out of somewhere (A.K.A: The PC update team). ***************************************************************************************************************************************** As to the people talking about putting the game on the Next Gen Console, which would come out in years, and be made by a completely separate team. (Minecraft Model). I actually kinda have to agree. Minecraft in final game does have really good support. The Minecraft model is something i would give my support. But if Rocket follows the Minecraft model, he is missing one key thing which is a whole thread in it's self. Mods. (Do not discuss them please here, this idea deserves its own threads). ***************************************************************************************************************************************** But within the near future (2 Years), this game would be ruined by going to console. Until the Next Gen Consoles are out and stable, Going console is a no no in my mind and logically if you want a good game. 2 Years is a long time, and that is not the point of the current discussion.

    Rocket, Please don't. (Dayz on Console).

    Can see that many people don't read the post, or understand it. I care because he has to decide soon. He has to think of how he makes the game within a few months. Or else the port to console will be impossible. And, I'm not a Fan-boy. I am thinking about making the best gaming experiences possible. I don't want a good game to die (As i have stated). Not sure if $$$ are ringing through his head, but what you said is true. Look at BF3. The game is completely broken (At-least at higher level of game play). Crysis 2 was ported from console. Anyone noticed that it was first only DX9. Before they patched it months later for DX11. ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************* What people don't understand is that consoles are to weak for this game. Read my post's please's. This game would have to be dumb down a lot for: engine wise / game-play wise / graphics wise. Im happy people are putting there opinions, but alot of them of them are ignorant. People don't seem to understand the limitations of the current consoles. They are 7 Years old. PC performances has gone up over 100% sense's then. To restate for the people who can't read this post, or are to lazy to. I will post this in bold. Sorry for the people who do. ***************************************************************************************************************************************** Consoles are to weak to run this engine. They would have to downsize the whole thing to barely play this game. That would effect PC because he would have to dumb down PC version to port it.

    Rocket, Please don't. (Dayz on Console).

    I don't state my opinion because I'm a PC Fan-boy. Or think PC is the Master race. I'm looking at the performances of past games and the outcome both Game-play and graphics wise. Console games tend to degrade in both. I don't want such a successful game like Dayz to end up like those's games. And Dayz unique community makes me believe i might be able to make a small differences. Possible change Rockets opinion if he reads this, or convinces enough users to disagree and get some changes done. ******************************************************************************************************************************************** To the trolls / users who don't read my post fully. Please do or get out. Your not helping this possible great game reach it's highest potential.

    Living without a L85

    Carefully.
  10. Agreed. As to the story, weird. Wish that stuff would happen to me.
  11. There a poll feature on the forums first off. And as a player who has played both maps. I like them equally. They have there own feel to them. Lingor is more,fast, play for a little while, done Cherarus is slower, more open, organized.
  12. Um, your problem there is the graphics card, not the CPU. Well that to. Its your ram actually. Textures where rendering in your RAM when you had it on low.

    No one up north! WHYYYYYYY?!

    Most players are spawning on the coast / Getting graphic glitch's there. Also, hackers generally kill players before they get off the coast. The hacking problem took a turn for the worse :( a few days ago with a undetectable hack that's free.
  14. alcatraz968

    met my first hacker -.-

    There's a new undetectable hack out. And it free... Thats why in the last few days, there so many script kiddys. Don't worry tho, when the hack gets found, many people are going to be banned at once's.
  15. You seems to never have used punkbuster. It don't usually ban the person the first time to start with, only resets there stats...
  16. alcatraz968

    Am i the only one doing this?

    Was in electro / cherno today. Die 3 times to hackers (Three different servers) all with the space of three hours. Dam godmod, one shooting (Still had my blood left), aimbotting, teloporting, Hackers.
  17. alcatraz968

    SSD, DayZ and You...

    mklink/j in the command window. Like the steam tool, but works for anything. :)
  18. alcatraz968

    Global Bans for legit players?

    Still better then Punk-buster.

    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    This is the first game i would donate to, too see it get off the ground. Defiantly going to buy it. Mod support for a mod / turn standalone. That actually a good idea. BUT only if Rocket makes it still have balanced game play. Would love to see end game and way more players helping each other. End game of dayz right now is player hunting. An with a locked engine, hopefully way less hackers. I know people with no hacking ability making small scripts for this game. Usually to get gear. Its to simple.
  20. The chopper was destroyed by my friends. But we did not find any other vehicles. The chopper was found in a field...
  21. alcatraz968

    Why destroy tents?

    Me and my friends don't dope. We dont need to, with are As-50s and M4A1 (Where both on like day 20). But after someone got the chopper on a server and fixed it by duping before us, might dupe engine parts if we have to. The totally unfair that we spent 2 days legit to get the parts and they dupe it to get it in a day.
  22. alcatraz968

    anyone find it weird that in dayz...

    I can't flip a ATV back over. Helicopters fall from the sky fully loaded with High end Military Gear. You can't open doors to many buildings. You can go in 3D person.
  23. I noticed that the link to the Teamspeak for Dayz is gone. Can anyone tell me what it is. I will update this to include the IP after someone tells me it. Thanks.
