Hmm, this 'flailing' idea brings me to the idea of missing limbs? How cool would it be if the crawling zombies were crawling because it was missing 1 or possibly both of it's legs. Or imagine a zombie running towards you flinging it's one and only arm around in the air. Maybe a bit violent or extreme for dayz, but still an idea.

They should run straight, but faster, so you have minimal time to turn around and shoot them.

i-i'm not quite sure this is relevant to the "Christmas BBQ" that happened 6 weeks ago in any way.

I'm afraid that having lots of players, and few hackers are not something that go together. Hackers target big servers, and all anti-hax do nothing until the damage is done, ie. the whole server being killed. Balota Buddies was probably the best I've been on so far though. I only played on there for a few weeks because most of the admins need a reality check, but I encountered a hacker only once in the weeks I was on there. The server was always at atleast 50 players when I was on as well.

Nice way to change the words that came out of his mouth, jerk. Giving you my beans just so I can take them away again.

I just had a look at your MOHW video again, and you clearly stated at the start is that you're struggling with commentating itself. I think you should talk about what's happening in game, what you're doing, why you're doing it, what you did wrong etc. My favourite youtube currently and has been for about 2 years now is THERUSSIANBADGER, what he manages to do is upload average everyday gameplay footage and make it interesting by talking about it in a certain way, and keeping it funny. Try not to force anything, just talk like it's normal. You'll get used to it eventually, and it will come naturally.

Tell one of your friends where you are, then have them come kill you and watch your gear while you come back to get it.

NOELonPC? Really? Do you do it in 1080p as well? How unoriginal.

'Helo' is slang for helicopter in the military. It is pronounced 'he-low'.

I said this on another thread yesterday, but I'll say it again. When you're recording for video's, don't get very engaged in the game. You can laugh and stuff like that, but when you're 100% focused on the game you're playing you tend to start to say things like "umm, errrm, come on!, yess! uggggh" and shit like that. Try to do regular uploads, and do longer video's. Try to make a series if possible on something you enjoy doing. Maybe it's a certain type of dayz, for example you might want to do a DayZ Panthera series where all you do is play dayz panthera. Make sure the video's are entertaining. If you haven't already, make sure you get a good quality desk mic, you'll be surprised how much it improves the quality of your voice. Make sure you're always confident with your voice too, don't be quiet.

"GUYS I PUT MY VIEW DISTANCE AT 10,000 CAUSE I'M A REAL PLAYER EVEN THOUGH CHANGING YOUR VIEW DISTANCE DOES NOTHING AT ALL IN DAYZ BECAUSE IT'S SET SERVER SIDE" This is you right now.

Chernarus is based on a real place, only in real life it's on a much larger scale. Namalsk on the other hand, in vorkuta it really does feel like your in Chernobyl.

If the whole purpose is to get excellent frame rates, you're going to get a heap of players. A heap of players = bad performance. But it's not just down to the fact there are 50 players on the server, it's the dead players, dead zombies, and also the amount of zombies around the map ie. if there is one player on a server in elektro, there will probably be max 70 zombies on the whole server, but if there are 50 players in most of the towns on the map, that's a whole load of zombies. tl;dr performance is more relative to the amount of people playing than anything else.

I look forward to the times where we actually have to avoid the zombies in the first place, instead of running through a town gathering them all, and then worrying about them when you're finished looting.

Hackers that play on a server regularly is not a good sign to be honest.

Shame you play on AU #500. They are pretty much the most hacked australian servers out there. I also heard a week or 2 ago that the owner of the server uses hacks as well.

There is only so much he can do about hacking, and it's already done. As far as bugs go, he can't sort out bugs with the new game until there are large numbers of people playing it. He's doing what he should be doing, experimenting with new ideas, not just fixing little bugs that have no effect on the game. It's in alpha, there's no need to be fixing bugs just yet, he needs to toy with how the game plays to make it better.

If you hit a person in real life with an ATV it would most likely flip it, or atleast throw you off you off it. Be happy you didn't die.

It's the headset that's holding your rig back for sure. But seriously. Arma is a CPU intensive game, and you have a pretty bad CPU to be honest. Your ram is also very outdated. There are often 700+ zombies on a map, so that really drops your fps in dayz.

I don't think you can judge a map on whether or not you can find a sniper quickly. I personally think that it fits the 'zombie apocalypse' theme a lot more. It's not colourful really, there are a lot of thick forest to hide in as well. Not to mention it is the official dayz map, as in the official hive is hosted for chernarus only, and it is the only map edited by rocket for dayz use. Every other map has been community edited and hosted. The map was also obviously made by BIS for Arma 2 by professionals who are employed to make maps, where as taviana and every other user made map is just made by keen community members with spare time.

Most certainly don't do this. Almost all free hacks are key stealers. The key stealer will stay on your computer, even after you delete the hacks. Unless he's prepared to do a fresh install of windows after he gets it banned, then don't do this at all. EDIT: wtf, the word "hack" was censored? lol?

I never said you did, but the name "SweetFX", combined with the fact that you have high res textures for everything and you add "real life" onto the end will surely fool a lot of people into thinking it's more than just a colour tweaker.

Just join a random server, wait for the "BattlEye client initiallized" or whatever it says, and it will tell you your GUID. Once it does, take a screen cap with recording software, because you can't print screen unless you're in windowed mode.

Dean suggested this mod to one of his twitter followers on his twitter account, so he's obviously for it.

He's using bloom to make the game look more 'realistic'. Don't be fooled by his pictures into thinking you get high res texture or something like that, it just plays around with the colours to make some stand out more than others.
