Glad they nerfed the Winchester. It was unrealistic. 15 shotgun rounds in one tube? What... is the gun 6 feet long, or are we talking about 1 and 3/4th inch shells? http://www.midwayusa.com/product/255579/aguila-minishell-ammunition-12-gauge-1-3-4-5-8-oz-7-1-2-shot-box-of-20 Please...

Hahaha! The download server is chugging.

This is great! I always thought that 15 rounds in the Winchester was a bug or something that would get fixed later. Then I looked it up and saw that indeed the Winchester does have a 15 round tube magazine, but the 12 guage model doesn't actually hold 15 rounds. Getting rid of pellets essentially makes the winchest behave more like its normal .44-40 Winchester version (which actually does hold 15 rounds in the mag tube). Now all we need are for shotguns and tube-magazine based rifles to behave properly for loading. They don't have removable mags, just tubes where you insert rounds one at a time. Finally... this patch gives me a reason to pick up 870s and M1014s. PS: This game needs more shotguns. Side by sides, over-unders, Mossbergs, etc.

Then don't play. I like the direction it's going in. Extremely unique from anything I've even seen in a decade + of gaming' date=' especially mod gaming. Though maybe if you guys keep shitting on the game more in a patch thread, Rocket will code in a Bejeweled mini game for you fellas. [/quote'] Damn straight. A game that is hard and caters to the niche players is more fun. If you can't take the heat, then GTFO. However, it isn't just about being hard. You could make zombies invincible and it would be hard, and not fun. Rocket is pushing the boundaries in a very new and interesting way. Those of you who want your fun spoon fed to you need to learn how to cook and chew your own steaks from now on. This party is just getting started.

Rocket hasn't posted since about 11:50AM Prague time. (I assume these forums use Prague time). It's 9:40PM there now. I bet they're working hard on it as we speak. They're in the middle of EU prime time right now though.

I'm connected to my normal server just fine, but there are between 1 and 50 zombies only, so no loot is spawning. It's been that way all day.

Why are you so happy? The patch still isn't out yet. I'm gonna sit here and complain until it is up. I'm auto-refreshing http://us.armafiles.info/ Each patch is like Christmas. There's always more in the patch than what shows up in the changelog. :D

Update all of the servers Let 100 people download the patch, then throttle the download to 1kb/sec for 15 minutes, unthrottle and let another 100 people download. Repeat this for the first hour and then let the floodgates open. (After an hour someone will have hosted a zip of the files somewhere so throttling won't matter anymore.) Should soften the blow pretty well.

I can't speak to any specific features that Rocket created to cater to the whiners, but I can say that I love the game (patch 1.5.7) and I'm looking forward to 1.5.8 later today (hopefully). I have nothing to complain about except buggy deaths, but those will be fixed in time. I do like bandit skins, but I think I would like custom skins more even though I won't be able to tell the bad guys from the good guys as easily. The good guys shoot me more than the bandits anyway. What's to complain about?

Are we there yet? NO! Are we there yet? NO! Are we there yet?

So obviously this means they're more likely to attack me if I have a flare in my hand or if I stand near a flare, but does it also mean that I can throw a flare down the street and they will chase it? That would be nice! I like playing PVP in the dark, but searching for car parts in the dark is a pain in the ass so I don't do it anymore. I might actually play past 7:00PM now.

I would like longer view distances just so I could see people coming to kill me from farther away.

Date/Time: 3:34PM PST 5/19/2012 What happened: Logged in, found out I was reverted to a default spawn after saving up in the castle north of Elektro. Drank a soda, logged out. Logged back in to find my thirst wasn't quenched and drank another soda. Disconnected because of crappy server. Logged back in to find my sodas were gone and my thirst still wasn't quenched. Went searching for water, got shot by a bandit. Where you were: Near Elektro What you were doing: Before my respawn reset I was going north with a full load of water and shotgun shells and after the reset i was searching for water. *Current installed version: 1.5.7 *Server(s) you were on: Seattle (Anti Sardine Alliance) *Your system specs: i5 3.1ghz 8 gigs Mem, 5830 Radeon *Timeline of events before/after error: Before, logged out near the castle in electro. After, logged in on the coast and drank a soda. My thirst didn't save though.

http://www.livestream.com/dayzmod My friend Jimmy and I are teaming up in Elektro. Enjoy.

Stream is up again.

Why is this game so full of idiots? Because only idiots and bandits stay in elektro after finding good supplies.

No... it's getting worse as more people join. I'm thinking I'll go to bed right after work and wake up early to play the game rather than stay up late to play the game and go to work in the morning.

Yep. It's lots of fun. I love the dark. I still switch to daylight servers from time to time, but night brings on a whole second half of the game. It's like two games in one!

Maybe it only goes down to 1/8th minimum when you're offline, it stops there to wait for you to get back. Sounds like a good compromise.

It's fun? I can't wait to try it. For now, I'm just in friendly co-op mode.

The numbers are awesome. I got trapped in a church with a horde outside. It was quite fun. That's how the game should work... right?

Don't care. Zombies. Kthnx.
