They took 2 weeks off over christmas and new years after a year of hard work. They would have only got got back stuck into it a week ago. That's barely enough time to add anything at all. Be patient young one.

I don't like the sound of the idea, the game is already copping flack due to them spending so much time on fiddly little details like this. Can you imagine? "Hey, hey guy! Wait up! I've got to brush my teeth real quick!"

Personally, I wouldn't want any more than 70-80 on a map the size of Chernarus. Maybe in the future we'll see larger maps that can accommodate more players, and have large northern cities that entice players to actually roam the map instead of sticking to the coast.

There's no cheat system in place yet. Not much we can do at the moment, hackers will have their fun for awhile, and then when Rocket sneaks in a cheat system without the hackers realising, hopefully they'll all be banned, and laughter ensues.

That's a PC streaming DayZ to an Android. The Android tablet is not running the game, it is just recieving it via Wifi from a beefy PC

I voted yes, but it doesn't really worry me that much. The only issue I have with mouse movement is the god damned mouse acceleration.

FTFY ;)

When you have to jog several k's with over 30kgs of gear, a rifle and a chest rig that restricts the capacity of your lungs, it sure as fuck feels like you've got asthma!

I believe there was a movement for beards about a year ago. Not much was mentioned after though EDIT: Oh hey, I've still got the signature :)

I love my Alt+tabbing, maybe you should just try a different combination of key bindings. Obviously you've been running along holding down Alt and pressing tab to check your inventory like I have so many times before. Just change one of your keys, like your inventory, to another button. Problem solved! :D

Am I the only one that thinks this just looks like it makes everything lighter?

Everyone's used to DayZ Mod where when you eat or drink once, it fills the entire bar. DayZ is clearly different, it only fills a small portion of your hunger or thirst

I agree with you to be honest. Bohemia's idea of recommended graphics is like 20fps average which is crazy, and a minimum PC would struggle to run it at 15 fps. That's far from ideal, and often unplayable. My backup PC, which I've been using due to the fact that I'm away from home for 2 weeks, is well above the recommended, with a FX-6100, 8gb 1600mhz memory and a GTX 560ti OC'd. Yet I get about 20fps average in cities, sometimes dropping to 15, and about 30-35 in fields and forests all on very low-normal graphics. Not to say I'm complaining, because I'm used to it after years of Arma now, but I'd personally say that it's borderline minimum for DayZ

Seems like a placebo effect, because there is nothing in the notes about changes to loot and zombies. I haven't noticed a change since yesterday either. Maybe you just got unlucky yesterday?

At the moment, everyone is struggling to get off the coast because they die of thirst within 10 minutes. Wait until everyone realises that you actually need to head north to get good gear, then gear like this will be much less common as it only spawns once. People will get in firefights over M4's and larger backpacks. The game's barely been out for over a day yet.

You must venture north, young one

I remember having this convosation about 6 months ago before I left. Still going on hey? As much as I agree that the game would be way better if everyone used in game chat, it's completely unrealistic. I like to talk to friends a whole group of friends, some of which I'm in game with, some of which aren't. The sound quality in game is well below average, and I don't know where my friends are in game if I want to meet up.

Played for 3 hours. Got myself an M4, a .45, a 35 slot back pack, heaps of food and water, med kit, military helmet, boots and chest rig along with heaps of other stuff. Died because I got hit by a zombie and couldn't figure out how to bandage myself :(

When I was first playing DayZ, back in the days when about 50% of players you ran into were friendly and looking to group up, I'd die once every few days which wasn't too bad considering I played so much. But I absolutely hated the thought of walking into a town and having some one sneak up on you and kill you. One second you've got a 3 hour old character with decent gear, and a split second later, you're dead. It didn't help that all the servers were lined up with NZ time, so whenever I got a chance to play DayZ, it was dusk or night time in game, which made everything 10x more intense for a new player If I ever died, I was scared to go into elektro or cherno, because of that feeling. At one point, I literally stopped playing for a week because I hated it that much, but I eventually got over it, and I haven't been scared while playing it in about a year. I'd trade all my knowledge about DayZ just to go back to those days where the game was fresh and scary. I've never in my life played a game even remotely close to the feeling that DayZ gave off, just writing this now I have a smile on my face remembering how immersive and exciting it was. It's so unique, it's a shame that it wears off so quickly.

Greatest thread of all time :lol:

But Arma 2 is just such a clunky game. Playing wasteland I feel the pain of only having 3 different stances. If you go into one of the big bunkers, you'll notice that if you're kneeling, you're to low to shoot over the edge, and if you're standing up, you are extremely open to being shot from every angle, there is no mid ground like there is in Arma 3. You aren't forced to use the extra movements/stances, they are there for when you need them. Trust you lot to complain when the devs give you something extra.

If you change ATOC from disable to "All Tree's and Grass", you won't lose any more than a frame or 2. I personally think they need to pick a tree and grass setting, and enforce it. The performance gain of putting it on 0 is almost non-existent, and I feel like the game would benefit 10x more from having proper tree's, rather than 1-2 extra FPS.

What am I even reading As long as you didn't go onto a hack website and download the hacks yourself, then you have nothing to worry about.

This was captured in the same studio as Rockets video. No it is not a video of Rocket, it's a video of the guy behind the mod I assume. Dean didn't buy a mo-cap studio just to do a days worth of work, other people use it as well.

Combined Assault? I've never heard of such a thing before. Maybe you should check exactly what version you bought. You might have the right one. It should be called "Combined Operations" or "Operation Arrowhead" As for the graphics. Arma 2 can work really well for some, and not so well for others. If you can play every other PC game out there, you shouldn't have a problem. You will be able to fiddle with your settings once you're in the game to make sure you run it as best as possible.
