  1. Im fine with waiting longer for the standalone it will mean we get a better game, but I want to get some things off my chest. Like many many players I have over 1000 hours logged on DayZ, probaly more like 1500 hours (over 40 days played). I have been watching the gameplay builds over the last few months of the standalone builds at the various game conventions. And I have to say that instead of getting more and more excited with every new video of these, I am getting more and more upset and confused. This is the most recnt video from gamecom that made me want to post here My concerns: - We have been waiting since end of last year for this standalone. This is fine if we are going to get what we want, I have no problem waiting for a better polished game. Nothing I have seen has really impressed me. Yes it may look a little better graphics wise but thats to be expexted. - My biggest concern is this,,,, I feel you have people developing and trying to sell the idea of the standalone who are not serious dayz players. One example of this is Matt. How much game time does Matt have played? And I don't mean playtime that involves game testing or developing, I mean actual game time. - I just want an updated better polished game than what we have now on the mod, there is not much that needed changed. I feel like your trying to add all these new things when infact you should be just releasing a better version of the mod and then worrying about what to add and change. - Big Point Now..... The Hud. The DayZ Hud is what makes DayZ the game it is. I don't want spammed with text telling me Im hungry, thirsty, sore etc etc. This is one big thing that has annoyed me a lot. I do not want the Hud removed. With the normal green hud removed it won't feel like DayZ to me. Get rid of the text messages, give us the hud we have come to love, just improve it maybe like dayzero has done and give us a percentage or something on blood. - Am I right in saying we are going to get a game on release with no drivable vehicles? Instead you are too busy working on all this other superfical stuff that many of us do not really care for or need instead of bringing us a better polished version of the mod on release. - Emptying bullets from cases and then having to add them to your mag..... really? - Zombies leaping at you..... From earlier videos this is horrible also, all you had to do was sort the AI path out. Its getting to arcade like. - I do like the first aid kit idea so that one positive, but I do not like the whole blood thing. Then you went into the whole blood type crap. Your making a game we love even more complicated than it is already. - The reason I have over 40 days played is the intense feeling dayz gives us. The music, the zombies the fear of gearing up for a few hours and that it could all be un done easily. You should be making zombies more terrifying and giving us a polished version of the mod, not a version of the mod that has went arcade/minecraft I will stop now, I just feel we are waiting and waiting and waiting and you guys are going down the wrong path right now. We want the standalone of the mod we love, not a completly new game. Some of you may agree or disagree, thats fine. These are just my opinions Your trying to mass market it for new players and its getting too lame Regards
  2. 1) That is not a concern 2) Is that not a a thing many games should improve on, actually having guys that play the game help develop it. And to be completly honest they need someone better to help sell the game. I have nothing agaisnt Matt he has done a lot of great work on the mod but he is not selling the game to me. Nevermind new players or companies 3) I do not want an arcade/minecraft game 4) Yes, I want the hud, not text spamming me 5) ........ 6) I just feel there are better thing to be working on right now 7) Yes, it looks terrible. They should be making them more terryfing not making them something that looks almost funny (terrifying I mean working on noises they make and AI pathing and skins. 8) No, it is too complicated These are my reasons and Im entitiled to them like you are
  3. Thats your opinion, I feel we are going to get a standalone and many of the core players will probably end up going back to the mod. Superficial crap never lasts. Thats why you play a game and get bored of it and move onto the next big hyped game, I fear this with the standalone
  4. Agree here also, it being devolped to sell to mass market.
  5. @Inception Yeah your right, I mean most of the people I play with share these opinions
  6. That might be your opinion if you like playing games like minecraft, 7 days to die etc etc None of those games give you the adrenalin or intense feelings dayz gives you
  7. I have not heard the word "mullered" for a while

    Game Crashing

    I had this about a month ago out of the blue, It never crashed to desktop, but froze up and black screen for a few seconds. Pretty sure it was something to do with one of the recent nvidia updates or precision x, not sure which but not happened since
  9. 1k blood and a broken leg and still engaging that squad, awesome mate, shame about the ending.

    [Solved]I can't update the game...

    I have had this problem before, where you will update but arma will still launch using an older patch. Cant remeber the fix but try launching arma 2 oa beta shortcut until you see the correct patch number in the top right of the main menu, then I think you need to mess about with what expansions are enabled

    Struggling with MP Missions

    I think its something to do with him not having two sepperate folders i.e "Arma 2" and "Arma Operation Arrowhead" I think this is what he needs to fix, he basically only has 1 MPMission folder for both games

    Graphic issue

    Your pic looks normal to me The only thing that will improve some textures is the 2 dlc's, brittish and private military company, not sure about default survivor skins but I know it improves the hero and ghillie skins and some vehicle textures See here http://dayzmod.com/f...-textures-pics/

    Which PC?

    try this site, from what I have seen the bundles they sell are pretty good value (you wouldnt save much building the same pc yourself) http://www.freshtechsolutions.co.uk/ You want a quadcore cpu at 3+ ghz and a half decent gpu, I do not think you will get highest setting on that budget Im afraid aim for i5 3570k or the amd equivalent and a half decent graphics card like a 560 ti or equivalent, this is prob the recommended for smooth dayz at med settings
