Your cow appears undernourished and in need of milking...

Had this happen to 6 of us once at NWAF... pilot got kicked for 'battleye script exception #55' or something similar... luckily we weren't that high, and we 'crash landed' on the runway, just causing large amounts of damage to the chopper... so we ran around for the next 45 minutes trying to find parts to fix it, until we eventually all got taken out by a hostile squad that had moved in during that time... epic fail on battle-eye's behalf!

Hrm, is it bad that i laughed?

I did a search but couldn't really see anything related to this, so I thought I would put this out there... 'To me', I believe it to be a fairly simple tweak, but obviously I haven't seen the code myself... When you currently throw a grenade, zombies seem to aggro from quite a large distance away (which is fine) however the zombie aggro currently seems to come back to the person who threw the grenade, and not to the point of the explosion itself to investigate the sound, even if the explosion was 40 - 50m away... This isn't realistic in that they wouldn't know the point of origin for the grenade throw, they'd only know where the explosion was... Would it be possible to implement a similar 'investigate' routine, similar to that used when you throw a tin can/bottle/smoke grenade, where the zombie will investigate the actual explosion, rather than the originating source? Anyway, just thought i'd put my 2 cents in! Cheers, Azz

Congratulations... you killed an unarmed new spawn... :rolleyes:

Happened to me twice last night - on NZ 19 and US 766 Edit: Should also mention that the hacker on NZ 19 was flying around in a chopper about 30 minutes before the teleport

M14, not M4... M14 uses DMR mags

Torch works... I've used the acog and the Cco... Different rifles for different purposes... Acog is more of a longer range rifle, (out to 800m) while the cco is more suited to close in engagements due to no zoom and full auto

Ok, so i tested this out over a few hours last night, and it hasn't really changed my FPS much when compared to what it was previously... The other issue that i encountered is that my gfx card was hitting 90+ degrees, however, not sure if that was due to this change or if it was something completely unrelated...

I'm using a GTX285 (yeah yeah, its a dinosaur, I know)

Have changed these settings and quickly logged in... seemed to notice about a 10fps increase in the few seconds that I was logged in for... will give this a more thorough test tonight... Thanks for the info!

Subscribed, so I can try later tonight

Just played 1.7.2.1 with 94876 for the last ~3 hours... seemed to work perfectly ok for me?

will there be a new thread posted with links etc?

Here are my observations so far after I played it for about 2 hours last night... * Lag/Desynchs - The worst lag i have seen yet... Friend and I were both getting constant desynchs with the server * Zombies - Now aggro from what seems to be the other side of Chernarus, while this in itself isn't so bad, when mixed with the next point, it makes it pretty much impossible... * Zombies - As soon as you kill them, they respawn. Usually in groups of 5 or 6 - never-ending popup targets! * Loot - Doesn't seem to be respawning very often, if at all * Lag/Desynchs - Did i mention these before? * Zombies - Spawning right on top of players and insta-aggro'ing Also, a friend and I were in the barracks at the NWAF, when another player came in... my friend unloaded a full clip of M16A2 into this guy on burst at point blank... the other guy didn't seem to notice and just ran away and disappeared... and the kicker is that I didn't even hear my friend shoot (I was standing literally 5m from him) the desynch was so bad...

Thanks for this change... I think it will make it a much fairer and more interesting gaming experience overall!

This thread is relevant to my interests

A friend of mine just managed to connect to a server after ~30 minutes of trying, and he spawned as a bird and got the 'You are Dead' message... i really hope that's just a bug and he hasn't just lost everything... i'm too scared to try and log in at the moment...
