[Questionable] New military grade spawn area?
FrostDMG replied to wasrad's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
M14 ONLY spawns from crashed helis. Pics or it didnt happen -
Li actually agree with the last reply. I don't want every building spawning loot, but what I meant is the best loot comes from barracks - not including a ghillie - and this causes a massive number of players to camp there. Oh well thanks for your thoughts anyway
-
Why cant there simply be more good lootspawns spread around the map?
-
Can anyone tell me if it's because the 1.7.2 is rolling out or WTF is happening? Kinda confused and wanted to kill some zeds :/
-
i wish the HIVE server could actually handle a DDOS.. I haven't seen a game this vulnerable to DDOS in ages, then again it's alpha
-
>_< DDOS Alpha mod ftw... feels so pro

Stuck on "Waiting for character to create"
FrostDMG replied to MacFu's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
apparently shit got DDOS'd and now we are stuck... I'm guessng the HIVE server is a POS :\ -
yeah with massive lag it takes AGES to pick up/consume/drop items... dont worry bout it and reconnect to the servers once we can ACTUALLY PLAY AGAIN

how noob do you have to be to run for 2h to NWAF? Did you spawn in Cherno, run to Brezinio and then to NWAF? Seriously? Also.. LOL looting hangars = dethtrap! dont do it

1. When a player is killed, how long does the body stay for 2. When you hear flies but see no body, does that mean the body is gone, or is it a glitch and you can't see it? 3. How far do you have to be from e.g. Deer Stand to spawn zombies? 4. WTF Does General Channel do 5. Where does the loot spawn on heli crash sites? On the heli? Around it? 6. How does the loot in buildings spawn? Does it despawn when you log in? Knowing these things will help me out so much, especially with figuring out how long ago a person has been in the area I'm about to move into.

Couple of questions regarding the mod

ahh i thought it was the US heli... that's the one i have seen in videos.

I've been having this problem yesterday - and only yesterday. Basically sometimes my FPS would only go as high as mid 30s, EVEN WHEN LOOKING AT THE SKY. I do not have everything set to VERY HIGH, in fact everything is either disabled, low or normal. I've noticed that on some servers I get more FPS then on others. I honestly cannot play an FPS with less than 60 frames, as aiming just gets so sketchy it's ridiculous. I have the Radeon 6870, not too old, but this GPU run BF3 on High at higher FPS than DayZ on medium/low... I have also never had any problems running Crysis (original) almost completely maxed out with just under 60fps. I'm not sure if there's a fix for this, but it makes the PVP kinda difficult. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Drop in FPS depending on server/random

The difference is that the "hacked" heli is the UHZ 1 Cobra which is an attack helicopter, while the repairable one is the UH 1 Huey or some later variation of that model. The UH 1 is more of a support/transport heli while the UHZ 1 is for basically blowing shit up

Arma 2 Engine - Reality and common sense questions
FrostDMG replied to [email protected]'s topic in New Player Discussion
Yeah... I even recon the game would run better in CE2... I dont wanna say it but this is almost as bad as STALKER's engine... seriously not a fan of it... -
Was the game better or worse with bandit skin?
FrostDMG replied to zalman's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
and why is it "casual" to have a bandit skin? I think it added another dimension to the game TBH... -
Last time I don't kill on sight
FrostDMG replied to richard_b's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
clearly nick and silent are two fucktard griefers, so just ignore them. But OT, if it aint a member of your party and he spotted you then its hostile and kill it. Since you can't tell who's bandit and who aint, just assume they are... Don't wait for heartbeat or name -
Was the game better or worse with bandit skin?
FrostDMG replied to zalman's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I think that the bandit skin made people think twice about pulling the trigger on another player. Right now there is no consequence for murdering players and I think the bandit skin provided a perfect balance. Should have stayed in defo -
Ok I'm calling BS on anyone that says they play legit at night without the NVGs. It is simply not possible unless you run around with the torch and miraculously avoid zombies which for some reason can see you almost as good in the night as during the day. Oh also, wanna use the torch? Guess what you need to put a weapon in your backpack for some reason >_< Anyhow, not sure if just madcuzbad or what, but I honestly do not think anyone can play during the nighttime without NVGs and WITHOUT ABUSING GRAPHICS SETTINGS!!

[GUIDE] Best route to NWAF for newspawns
FrostDMG replied to FrostDMG's topic in New Player Discussion
I do. I do this too... Wow... How sad do you have to be to camp a market in the middle of nowhere? I mean seriously, snipers and DCers aside, this is a whole new level... -
Can anyone actually play at night?
FrostDMG replied to FrostDMG's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
that's actually a very good point.. maybe only the chosen ones with NVGs should be able to venture into the night :\ -

[GUIDE] Best route to NWAF for newspawns
FrostDMG replied to FrostDMG's topic in New Player Discussion
Thanks. I've never had problems with that market but next time I'm gonna pay more attention to it! Also, I used straight lines just as an indicator you know, so when you're actually playing you should decide whether you're gonna go into the woods or go the quick way. It's just a general pointer :) -
Can anyone actually play at night?
FrostDMG replied to FrostDMG's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
yeah i think the day/night cycle should be faster, but i think it would also help if every night had a full moon - yes i know its not realistic but then you could actually see where you're going. Also, i think the zombies should be almost blind, cause aggroing at night is a death sentence, and trying to see zeds is impossible without NVGs or cheating
