Hello? Just a thought really. Why not find scraps or something and add more of a realism. Metal, gunpowder, cartridges etc, and then when you get enough craft or create a few rounds that you can use in whatever gun you have. So crafting 5 extra bullets to use, which those 5 extra ones might help just that little bit better you know. I am sure this has been suggested before but I do not know what you would really call it, because the options could be added to more stuff. Creating molotovs, ammo, traps, etc. Could be taken a long way for a post acpocolypse which is what you would do in real life. Kind regards

I know what you mean which is why I said etc. Just allow crafting to be apart of the game. You can choose where you want to craft or just leave if and find the desired gear you want without crafting. Still good to craft stuff.

E47 yeah that could work but then it kinda steps to Dead Island I think but then what everyone forgets is that crafting is optional. You do not have to craft. You can leave stuff there you know and just continue.

Fair enough. We all have a view and I accept everyone's. Was just a thought :)

True enforcer but why not this... The tools to create the stuff you must find in warehouses or something and they cannot be moved. Like a bench. So to make a real bullet you need a press and it is a heavy bit of kit which I do not suspect you carry it around. Just stationary gear to create just a thought.

Yeah I know which is why I submitted a basic idea which can be edited and things changed. I just thought the ability to craft or create items to help your survival more would be greatly used and helpful

Hello, I am playing using Steam and using Six Launcher. If you use the beta patch and cannot play in Steam, I've got a way. I now have no problems with the game as of now. Been playing a while and nothing has happened. Here is what I did. Steam Client> Arma 2: OA (Right Click properties) > set launch options and typed in this "-nosplash -mod=@dayz-beta=Expansion\beta;Expansion\beta\Expansion -mod=@dayz" without the quotes Then ran the latest beta patch. Then went to my Steam install> Steamapps> Common> Arma 2 OA> in there the Arma2oa.exe I renamed to Arma2OADayz.exe then went into expansion> Beta> Copied the Arma2OA.exe and went back to places into the original install file and pasted there. Ran the game in Steam was it shown the latest version at the bottom. If you ever do a beta patch, just delete the arma2OA.exe. Go into the expansion> beta and copy it and back two places and paste it. Load the game and it's updated WITHIN steam. That is what I done. For the 1.7.2.4. Basically manual install the file. IF you are stuck on loading it is because you are showing 1.7.2.4 and trying to join a 1.7.2.5. So for that manual install download. Into @dayz> addons and copy and replace those files you download into that folder. Done. I hope this helps you all, and I thought I would post it for you because mine is working well.............. So far. Enjoy!

So sorry for the triple post. Iphone 4s sent it ALOT of times.

Okay nevermind. The graphics glitch has return and not been fixed!!!!

That may be true BUT and it is a big BUT. All my friends who use Dayz Commander and they still have the graphics bug. Did what I said and now no more and now they've removed the commander because to me.. It is not as good.

Wondered the same thing. Just removed it and corrected it. Dayz Commander I do not like, and I prefer the Playsix or Six Launcher. Tried the commander and don't like it so do not use it.

Hello, So if you are getting stuck on loading screen it is because you are trying to join a 1.7.2.5 and your version is 1.7.2.4. Basically update by downloading them direct from the website mirrors, do not use Six Launcher or anything because they are on 1.7.2.4. As soon as I did that and replaced old files it all worked fine and no problems. Back to the game... The graphics bugs still persists. I am running 1.7.2.5 with V95883 and still getting the stupid crazy graphics glitches all over the screen. Thought I would say.

I am at Berezino and there are graphics glitches all around this place. Annoying! Enjoy :)

Wait this comment I am a little confused. Should I uninstalled the Six Launcher and updater, and install the new PlaySix thing?

I kinda get the same problem. Sometimes I will start off with a fine game and then after a while 30minutes an hour whatever, the game becomes slow and fps laggy. Othertimes I will start off straight away with a laggy game. It might be the servers, I am running a high end gaming machine and got problems. Sorry to say this, but I think it is the poorly made Arma game. They have more bugs in 1 game than any other put together, they seem to be just quickly thrown together and not bothered with. All of the Arma games are terribly made with insane amount of problems. That being said, Bohemia are making the standalone DayZ game? This makes me very very worried. I hope they put time into the game. You google the arma bugs and you'll be bombarded with sites with people complaining about bugs, glitches etc. Sorry dude but I cannot help you as I am in the same boat. Only thing seems to fix is turn the game off, reboot your pc and log back in and it's fine again for me... For the next hour of it's life..

I am waiting for six launcher to update the game. I do not do the downloads and Rocket has said. He will release to Six when it is stable because as of right now. The game is not stable.

Annoyed like hell at this game. Lots of the Six Launcher are showing 1.7.2.5 and I do not know how to update it, if Six doesn't say to udpate then I won't bother. Anyway, it best be fixed tomorrow specially the graphics bug, random spawning location and game working. The graphics bug is still there, and the spawning is annoying as hell. I want to play so sort it please!!!

Hello, Just had a conversation with another bloke about this and got me thinking. If you made a character right, ran around abit and then disconnected and didn't play for a week... You load in and the time will say Day 7 survived. Even though you played like 20minutes. So why not correcting this and all the hours you play adds on, so you play days on end and it all adds up. Say you die, make a new character and start. You play for 3hours. Disconnect. Then day after you log in, instead of saying day 2, it shows 3hours. You play... 5 hours more, that then adds ontop... Eventually it all builds up and becomes more and more days? Reason being during this conversation this bloke was like "I've been alive for 30days now" and I said doing what... He goes "I've put myself on a light house and left him there, I've not played in ages but he's safe" Well then sorry you've not survived for 30days at all... You've merly put him some where and turned it off. Little bit of cheating on saying how many days you been alive when in actual fact... You've survived a few hours. What you all think? Menphuess

Hello, Just thought I would spark some interest. How much you do all think it will cost on release and when do you think it's due? Also do you think it will be preorder or straight away on Steam or a download from their website? What do you all think? I think... It will be a download from their website and the discount thing be... To enter your CD keys of Arma and you get money off. Showing you played Combined Ops... Think? kyle939

Sorry but I disagree. I've been on a few Battleye servers and come across a few hackers.... Was with some friends and hackers stormed in..

I too am having the same problem! Build 95883. This was surpose to be fixed but happened again. This is getting worse and worse lmao.

Hello, I was just playing online and I thought I would take a break. Upon doing this I come back and joined a different server and now I am in a different location? With some of my stuff, and some lost. I changed back to the other server and different spawn again. Anyone got any idea why this is happening. I am running the latest version, 95883. Really really stupid and annoying if this is apart of the game.. and should be put back to the original way. Annoyed! Thank you!

I play using Steam, so all I do is completely remove the game, deleting the folder from the Steamapps folder. Then reinstall the game and then sixlauncher and install there. Then running it all once done the copy over and rename stuff.... Updates every time to latest. You could run the Beta Patch and then the launch game from in the folder.

Thank you all. Wow lots of beans, going to make me fat :P Also we see if they actually add this because I've noticed ALOT well actually all the suggestions from us lot has done nothing. Not one single thing being added, only what "they" want to add. I think it is just here so we feel like we've helped...
