Fraggle (DayZ)

Don't worry, any development over the next year would be purely for the PC. Rocket has already discussed this and said there will be no compromises with regards to keeping consoles in mind.

If it ever does it's a LONG way off. I call it Karma, I still can't forget how badly optimised LA Noire was for the PC, it really sucked.

Mitunzz betrayed someone once, it was horrible.

You got Arma 2 free from a magazine? No you didn't. You can download a free version of Arma 2 but it has low quality textures and sounds. You can then combine this with OA (which you need to buy) and then you can play DayZ.

It really is a decision only you can make. I personally enjoy Arma and some of the other mods that are available so I would recommend getting CO. If money's tight (which for many it is) I would say hold off until the SA is released. Regarding the SA release date, ignore QuantumDrop^^. That info has literally been plucked out of thin air. Keep your eye on the announcements thread for info, as yet a date is not confirmed.

That's one of the main reasons the SA is being made. The Mod is almost impossible to secure, Arma is designed to be easily scripted, ironically that's how Dayz was created to start with. With the SA script injection won't be possible and the code will be locked down, happy days.

Now I'm drunk, merry xmas *burp*

I think we can all agree that the whole WarZ shitstorm is truly depressing. I spent some time following it on Steam yesterday, at first I found it amusing but after a while I just found the whole situation a tad too much and had to leave them to it. Rocket is having a well earned break and I'm sure he'll come back refreshed with some exciting news. it's understandable that he feels the pressure but I'm sure that once the SA is released he'll be able to take stock, breath out and start enjoying the process again. For all of the stick DayZ players get, one thing they are is patient. As long as the outcome is a good game it doesn't matter how long it takes. If we can learn one thing from the WarZ fiasco it's that rushing a game out never ends well.

:(. I'm dyslexic. Really, not kidding. I still can't see it :/ Edit - Oh balls, I see it now, thanks for the heads up. Don't tell anyone, I really can't be bothered to change it. Have some beans for being the first to notice.

I will wear a top hat and tails. My walking cane will keep the zombie hoards at bay whilst keeping things classy.

You'll need to contact Battleye as they issue the bans, not us. You might want to remove those accounts you have on various hacking sites first, including the one about WarZ hacks. Locked.

This forum has stolen my soul and my innocence. I used to be happy boy with a glint of optimism in each eye and a zest for life. Now I'm a jaded old man with a bag of chips on each shoulder and a face like a bulldog chewing a wasp.

Latest intelligence reveals that the game will indeed cost money.

It won't be lifted. Merry Xmas.

It always helps when you provide any report to be more specific, in this case the ban message would help. I'll assume that the message was an automatic admin ban. It s a known bug with some anti-cheat software (when you crash a heli) and the server admin may be unaware of this. You'll need to find a way to contact them or wait for a reply here.

Lol, not solved. How does restraining a character to one server stop someone farming a military spawn to death, it doesn't. Although that is more regarding the mod. As I said it's going to be different in the SA so hopefully there's something to mix things up a bit and make it harder to just farm one spot or use loot tables to figure out the key points without exploration and/or luck.

I like most of it. I know that the spawn system has been rewritten (or will be) for the SA but I'd like to see it more random too. I hate all of the loot tables and people that farm gear using them. It takes away for the exploration and mystery, especially for new players. However they deal with it, I'd like it so that loot tables aren't possible or at least pretty pointless.

Bubbagum, this is your second post regarding this, don't make a third.

No idea, would be nice to give her "hero" status though.

Hi Akna. You've been banned by Battleye for hacking. We can't help you, contact them.

Niiiice lol, somehow I actually survived that!

You are also associated with at least 2 hacking sites. You are banned because you hacked, it won't be overturned.

I played alone for at least 6 weeks when I first started out. I'm still a lon wolf at heart. i pretty much always have a group to play with now but I still enjoy going it alone. Just make sure your first priority is the holy trinity (matches, knife, axe) than go hunting and stock up on meat, carry as much as you can (at least 6 steaks), then you can easily recover from run-ins with zeds or people. After that set yourself up with a tent and fill it with the basics, then you're good to go! Also use that thread Derps posted, the medics will always help you out, I ended up joining them in the end and it's good fun if you want to mix up the game a bit.

We should make a vid that truly reflects the UK and all her gloriousness.

Cool, weirdness follows you like Oprah follows cake.
