Blindingsun

as long as the M40 is still in game, and ghillies. I'm not fussed about the rest of the weapons. military weapons shouldn't be removed though

Personally I find 3rd person more enjoyable.. it makes moving and searching more aesthetically pleasing.. obviously I aim down scope for pvp but 3rd person is overall much better. 1st person just feels clunky and half the time in the SA I get my player model glitching onto the screen and blocking my view in 1st person.. :S

I prefer 3rd person all day. I like to see the clothing i'm in etc and it just feels better when I run around. I don't like Fps at the best of times.. I for one would be quitting if they removed 3rd person.

as stated. looking to play as a hero! ,. with some older people (i'm 32). willing to play non-vanilla dayZ but would prefer original. do have skype and headset please. Cheers... leave a message. /Blindingsun

Right for all who are interested I've settled on playing on UK 130.. public hive. if anyone wants to play a private hive let me know or hit me up on steam and we can sort something out.. Blindingsun on steam

I certainly am =D and ave been for about 14/;15 years =D

where can you even play Vanilla dayZ these days? every server I come across is "extra loot " or "500 vehicles" etc.... :(

how do you even find public hives these days? vanilla style

anyone who wants to play from this thread can add me on Steam /Blindingsun if not I might join that Bsb community =D

:inaccessible' doesn't sell games anymore I'm afraid

You know low style "gangsta" pants, were invented in prisons? so that inmates would know who was willing to receive anal sex.

Any Idea when we're gonna be able to buy into the Alpha/Beta like in the Minecraft model?

Kamenka to Pobeda damn. took ages. -_-

Fairly sure when I bought ACR it sharpened up a few textures in game too

By your logic then. if 3 of my mates bring their pc's to my house to play DayZ... we're cheating because we're in the same room? get over yourself *no disrespect.

Joining with model name such as T-500 or T-1000 would be more adequate.

it's not an exploit. the definition of exploit is something that allows an unfair advantage. everyone can download skype or teamspeak and as thus its not unfair. I spend all night on skype with family weather I'm playing or not. anyone who doesn't like it can go fudge themselves. spose Picking up the telephone and calling the person you're playing with is "exploiting" too? get over yourself.

If it bleeds, I can kill it.

Keep all character information Server side.... like on Warcraft.. 200+ servers but you can't move your character between them. problem solved.

FPS has little to do with your PC in DayZ.. Things that DO affect FPS are : when the server was last restarted, Players online. Zombies alive. dead bodies on the map. Low FPS could just mean that server needs a restart, try switching servers....

An older engine? you really know NOTHING don't you. it's running on a hybrid of the TOH and Arma3 engine, along with custom made elements.... it's getting a full inventory and clothing overhaul. it's getting hotkey assignments. and more stuff that the community just would not be even ever able to manage, they're doing new animations for the zombies and the players, as well as pathing fixes for zombies and a complete overhaul of the way loot and zombies are spawned. I'm sorry but as a whole the community is just not on that level. at all.

DayZ SA will be miles better than a Mod for Arma3. I'm not sure that people understand what they're really doing with the Standalone.. more than people think by this thread

Actually that data is incorrect. it's been noted that FPS in DayZ has more to do with the server you're on, than the system you're running;... if you read the dev blog you'd know this 4000 zombies spawned on the test server... = they had like 7fps. 3000 zombies they got it between 20-30 fps I believe. currently they're optimising it for more.. but the current servers are the same.. 400 zombies up and you'll start noticing the lag when you go on a 40/50 server and there's alot of zombies up... Fps will drop ..

Mute VOIP. Change your Profile name. Problem solved.

You can buy the Arma complete collection on steam right now... get that. there's lots of good servers...depending what you class as "good" What is the rest of your system like? that way I can determine a graphics card that will not bottleneck the system.... thanks
