you can find weapons easy depending on where you look, but getting to them would be difficult due to bandits. Plus think about all the unique situations you might have that you normally wouldn't have. Gun or not, "I HAVE THE GUN SO IM IN CHARGE" "OH SHIT, HE GOT A GUN! RUN"

You're not giving this enough thought. Think about it, being shot on sight would be a very rarer occurrence. Players would be for forced to confront each other which can allow them to communicate and possible team up more. Gun spawns just need to be a little more realistic. Military weapons : high chance to find in military camps/ air feilds. Shotguns and scoped rifles: medium to low chance of finding them at barns. Makerovs and colts: low chance of finding them in houses.

You're not seeing what I'm saying. When you see a guy with a gun you're thinking " no surprise here" If guns were rarer then you would be thinking "OH SHIT, HE HAS A GUN" and it's just a makerov.

I admit, make guns rarer and melee weapons more common would make this game more balanced and possible more fun. But there is no way Arma's engine could support that.

The first zombie aggro'd in this video pretty much shows how broken the aggroing is in this game. He's behind it, crawling and still gets aggro'd, its as if the zombie is psychic.

he's saying if he doesn't agree with the majority of the group or the games difficulty then he should go back to cod or go play some other easy game

So i've been using a cpu and gpu monitoring tool recently to see which of my hardware is doing most of the work. Obviously my gpu is at 99% which is expected. Surprisingly my cpu performance never goes about 60% which i think is good. But i noticed something that isn't right. I notice a lot of cpu speed dips, i look at the bars for each core and the bars for all of them are constantly going up and down. For example core 1,3, and 4's bar is really low but core 2's bar is really high and then it keeps shifting every second and its never really consistent. Is there any way to keep the performance of each core the same so each of them are doing an equal amount of work and not cause any cpu speed dips?

As many of you already know, surviving on your own can be rough. Especially for me since my computer barely plays at a decent frame rate with low-normal graphics. I would like to play this game with other fellow survivors(friendly ofcourse) and take on chernoraus together. But before we can do that, there must be a few conditions that must be met. 1. You MUST have a mic for direct communication. 2. Must have a skype 3. Must live on the east coast, I don't mind playing with others from different time zones but it can be frustrating waiting for someone from a different time zone to hop on. I'm currently outside of chernogorsk, by the barn next to the road that leads north to kozlovka. If you're interested in teaming up then pm me.

Now that is is a psychopath. He should be the final boss of the game.

Waiting and saving up sounds good, but I really wanna play this game with better settings now. Especially because my first year of college starts in August and once that begins I wont have the time I would like to spend in day z. I'm on a really low budget so I would like to spend no more then 120 dollars on the psu and gpu. The CPU will just have to do. This is gonna be my only upgrade and it's only for dayz. If there is ever another game on PC that I would wanna play then I would just wait until I can afford a new computer. So what are my options?

sounds like a fine idea, one bike per town wouldn't be too bad IMO

The more Independence rocket removes from the player the more dependent players are on others. That is either by killing them for loot or working with them. In real life survival, not everyone has to work with other people to survive. Some are just better at surviving alone than others and that doesn't mean they kill everyone they see either. I get the impression that most players think "If your a soloist, than you must be a murderous bandit." As of right now, no one can get by without working together or killing each other for loot. That needs to be changed so players can avoid human interaction without being punished for it. B4 you say its only kill or work together, that is true as of right now but it doesn't have to be so black and white. There is a middle ground that rocket isn't allowing, players should be allowed to survive without killing or working together. The only fix I can think of off the top of my head is to just give the player more. Give the player a weapon and a decent amount of items at spawn because REALISTICALLY no one would of made this far in the zombie apocalypse with no weapon or food, that is ludicrous. Also, some items should in specific places in plentiful but moderate amounts. Like if I go to a hospital for morphine and risk getting shot, then there should be morphine. Every risk has its reward, that may not always true in real life but this isn't real life,a simulator of anything can never be like the real thing so there is no point in going overboard to make it a real as possible. And that is my 2 cents.

Really good idea, it could work just like the demon's/ dark souls way of messaging people. You can use the radio to help people or be deceitful. While we're at it, how about adding generators that allow us to turn on the power in enterable buildings or even entire towns and cities! that would be really cool, imagine wandering in the dark until you see a bright light over a hill, you walk up to see what it is and you see a city with power. This city could be either a sign of hope or a sign of a trap and people will have to choose whether they wanna take their chances with the pure darkness or other players.

I get where you're coming from about it being abused. But I have a brother that wants to play the game just like me, we don't want to share the same character. Think about the people that would use a multiple character file feature who are in the same boat as me. If this was implemented, i can have my own character and my brother can have his and everybody is happy. We shouldn't give up on this idea too soon. If we put our heads together, we might find a way this can be implemented without it being abused.
