Agree'd for speed. But stealth is also a useful factor that we need to take into consideration. Stalking a player, or if you're in a town full of zombies that will undoubtedly cause bother if sparked.

Some people, eh Korsbaek? ;) It'd be pretty ballsy if Rocket went ahead and released the game with only we have so far.

Balanced rock on the coast. Small cave system.

I'm a fan of Amnesia's door mechanics. Outlast was a little more simple; press button to open quickly (louder), hold button to open slower (quieter).

I agree with Darryl. However, I'd like to see a demo of sorts other than in a Youtube video. It certainly looks interesting.

Agree'd. Vanilla - best flavour of all. Apart from mint.

First of all, I recommend finding a syringe and blood-test kit. You can get sick (fatally) if you inject the wrong blood. Blood bags spawn empty now, so you'll need to take the blood to inject it. You can either take it from a willing donor, or the subject him/herself. Hold the blood-bag in your hand, and scrollwheel on the person to get the interaction. It's as simple as that.

Like: Books Hate: Random people

I kid you not, my good friend Hwaet makes a point of collecting them wherever he finds them. Recently, we found a protective case (the yellow one) and he'd rather put books in there, than something such as medical gear. I won't lie; I actually enjoy the reading mechanic. I carry around a New Testament with me, and will occasionally sit down to read some of them. Kudos for forcing upon people, though!

Highest I had was 28 FPS indoors, and an average of 15 in the streets of Guba. Launch parameters - -malloc=system -cpuCount=6 -exThreads=7 -maxMem=8192 -maxVRAM=2047

I'm actually going to give this a go, heh. OP - Will report back on my findings. AndarneEdit: OP, you might've hit on something. I did a quick benchmark without the TMger, then one with it open, and a final one without it. When the task manager is open I gained around 7-11 frames where I logged in. Without it, they drop to poor levels.

Thank you, thank you. I'm here all night! All the red hoodies I've came across were red in description, and red when I put them on. I don't play as a female character, so I don't know if it's the same for them as me. Who knows? Maybe Rocket is trying to make things pretty for the ladies of DayZ.

Haha, ditto. I've made a point of exploring that part of the world, and I find it absolutely lovely. The only downside that I've seen is the distance between water sources.

Let me introduce myself. My name's Andrew. I was born in bonnie Scotland just over twenty-one years past. A computer technician by trade, I have had some limited survival and combat training from my local army centre, but didn't stick around. A couple of months ago, I decided to take a trip to Russia on a sightseeing/wanderlust impulse. I took my fiancée with me, as we both thought it'd be quite an adventure. Around two weeks into the journey, we chartered a boat along with a few other tourists in the area, to check the coastlines for some photographic shots. By midday we had a place called Skalisty on our starboard side. That's when it happened; the mate on the ship collapsed in a pool of black, coagulated blood. Not long after others began to fall too. The worst part was when they began to twitch and stand back up, and attack the healthy or dying. Melissa and I made the choice to jump overboard. The boat wasn't too far from the coast, and the weather was favourable. Plus we were both good swimmers. When I made it to the shore, though, I couldn't find her. All I saw was the boat in the distance; there were figures shuffling to and fro on its deck. I searched for hours, but couldn't find her anywhere. All along the coast near the island, there was no sign. But when I looked over the water to that damnable place, I saw her lifeless body float near its beach. I would've went and retrieved her, to make sure she was okay. But I heard gunshots not too far, and raised voices in Russian. So in my sorrow, in the confusion that clouded my mind, I fled into the forest. I ran, and ran, for hours. It's all fuzzy, but I do remember passing through a small town or two on the way. I swapped my wet clothes with some loose-fitting ones in an abandoned house, as I thought the inhabitants wouldn't mind - especially after what I had seen. I continued on, until I came across the railway tracks. I followed them onward. My boots sore on my feet, kept knocking against the sleepers and I often tripped and fell over. But I kept on. At night I would camp on the line, huddled into some blankets and bushes where I could find them. I don't know how long I had been wandering, but I came at last to a small town with a decent-sized dockyard. From what little cyrilic I knew, I deciphered the road-signs nearby to discover this place was called 'Guba'. To this day, even as I write on these scraps of paper, I remain here. My vigil. I have no intention of leaving this place; I don't think this place was alone in the incident. Plus I've seen more of them, wandering in the fields and towns. The only thing I have left is my sanity.

This.

Ditto. Sometimes it's the little people who make the best videos. Me? I'm nothing special, but I try. Since we're all sharing - DayZ Standalone

Female model, perhaps?

I thought the base building was coming from Origins? That, of all the mods for DayZ, was the one I preferred the most.

I'll admit to have tried several of the DayZ Mod mods. Notably Panthera, Lingor, Epoch. Some of them were enjoyable, and added nice features. Others were just over the top. Epoch, for one, was like that. Ultimately, I prefer Vanilla over all other flavours. Though I've yet to see what Rocket actually meant by 'modding'.

What ports? I've yet to come across an official list.

How's your ping to the server? It might be that. Often when I join a server, and have problems manipulating things, it's down to bad connection.

At least the mods of the Feedback site know now where to get some cheap Nike ripoffs. Has the site always had a 'Guests can post' policy? Seems a bit tricky, no?

10 SSD's!? Boneboys, my good friend! Pleeeeeease.... === Got my eyes on a SanDisk 128GB SSD on Amazon. Just need to get the funds together, now...

That's the deadlands you've ran into. The 'Dev Zone' is the unfinished part of the North.
