Ok Fanboys, prepare to have your jimmies rustled. Running on a dev PC with what looks to be "Normal" graphics at best, and it lags throughout the whole demo. The hitboxes are absolutely dismal, and trying to say otherwise makes you look blind. The player is being hit from miles away, and before the animation has begun at several points. Zombies are still clipping through walls (something supposedly remedied in the newest mod patch, so what's the dev's excuse for it?) The UI is a joke. You're all talking about the excellent functionality, so I must be the only one here who notices it messing up several times. The inside of buildings is nothing to piss your pants over, either. The textures are ugly, and you still can't run up stairs. It's running on the same engine as the mod, and seems to be more poorly optimised somehow. Call it pre-alpha all you like, but I see no progress here from the gameplay demo from months ago. Inventory system is ridiculous (look at the contents of jeans vs bag), not to mention it's ugly as sin. Doors are obviously still awkward to use. They've added extra buildings (something private hives have been doing for a long, long time.) Sorry if I don't shit my pants with excitement. Rocket has specifically said on several occasions that the graphics will NOT be improved upon, so please stop fapping your guts out at how "beautiful" things look, it's making you look silly. No vehicles at release because they're reworking them... I'm sorry, what? Isn't that the point of the standalone? It's genuinely baffling me how this is exciting to anyone. It also seems that we've reverted to the old defence of "It's pre-alpha" blah blah blah. By all means, keep allowing it to blind you. I'd say the rest of us will have moved on by the time this turd comes out. To the rest of you still circle-jerking each other over it, have fun. I think I'll spend my money on a game that the developers have put in the effort to make it look like a current generation title. I wouldn't be surprised if the SA was killed by the mod. I'd like to be proven wrong, but I doubt it somehow. The fact that the forum mods here are going out of their way to give people grief because they don't share their rose-tinted perspective is nothing short of pathetic. Real classy guys, real classy.

I imagine that it's because it's leaked footage from a build they didn't want to be seen by the public. Must keep up appearances, you know. :P

Scrambled toast on eggs.

DX11 would have been awesome, but the engine can already produce beautiful visuals. If you're telling us that it will look identical graphically to ArmA II I'm perfectly happy with that. I think there are some people who are deluding themselves as far as visuals go. Anyway thanks for the reply, I'm still buying it.

I'm not saying that it's ugly, what I'm saying is that there is no improvement over ArmA II. As it stands, with everything ramped up ArmA II can be a beautiful game. The point I was making is that all of the people saying "ZOMG I CAN SMELL THE GRASS ITS SO REALISTIC" are obviously looking at these shots through some rose tinted fanboy glasses, or they're playing the current mod on very low settings. I'm still looking forward to standalone, I guess I was just expecting things to be a little prettier

To all of the guys posting about how amazing the screenshot looks; are you all playing the current mod on the lowest graphic settings or something? It looks IDENTICAL to the current DayZ, no more realistic AT ALL. I'm currently using the highest possible settings for ArmA II, and there's not a single bit of difference. I was totally psyched for everything getting a revamp, but this has thoroughly disappointed me.

You're playing a game where the dead eat the living for sustenance. What about people who are agoraphobic, or haemophobic? Should we make the whole game inside, and without blood, just so they can play it? What about the people who are kinemortophobic? Should the devs release a version without zombies because they're afraid of them? Seriously, I'm not trying to be nasty here, but either grow up, or fuck off and stop complaining.

Hey guys, I'm having a problem playing at the moment as I got damaged down to low blood (about 3k), and had flashing vision. After locating and blasting an unsuspecting cow, I cooked the meat and ate until I got to just over 10k blood. The problem now is that my vision is constantly blurry (not flashing as it does on low blood, just blurry). I'm not shaking or anything when I jump into first person perspective, and even in third person it's now difficult to see more than about 50 feet with any degree of clarity. Can anyone clear this up for me and give me advice on what I need to do? Thanks :)

It's actually TL;DR. On that note, TL;DR.

Started playing on this server this evening, been OK so far, bar the one guy who shot me up in the cowshed for no reason. Having difficulty finding any proper vehicles, I think there may be some hoarders playing on this server lol, but I'm determined to sniff out your wilderness camps!

I would approve these changes. Time frame for release?

Sweet, been looking for a local squad for a while now :)

OP is Irish? Play with a team?

What a fucking uppity whinge. Boo-fucking-hoo, I keep getting sniped, and the community doesn't live up to my expectations. Let's go bitch on the forums, where I know for a fact people will flame me for my opinion, like a self-righteous prick. You've done the exact same thing here that you keep doing in-game, you knowingly walked into a shooting gallery. I have no sympathy for the OP, seems like he has a severe stick in his ass because he sucks at the game. Don't bother saying you don't, because if you didn't this thread wouldn't exist. There is really no need for the nonsense you've spewed in this thread, and it's laughable that you're trying to condescend people who disagree with you. Take a hike, you gurning Nancy-boy.

This.

Sounds to me like you're a pack of kids, and Nick is the only one with any sense. Nobody has proof of their stories, really? What a load of horse shit. I have a fucking tonne of video of me raiding bandits camps and all sorts of stuff. So yeah, the guy's right. You have no proof whatsoever, and therefore he has the right to call bullshit. http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m67gh8jYVT1rp9ify.jpg

It's ignorant, really. You say that your clan is for Muslims, but anyone is welcome. So then, why make the distinction in the first place? It just makes you look exclusionary, whether you are or not. Anyway, crap idea and poorly organised.

Jesus Christ, someone call the daycare centre, who let these whiny little bastards out of their cages? Find another server, they don't agree with you having hacked weapons on the server they fucking pay for. So how about the pair of you drop the sense of entitlement and play elsewhere? Over 3000 of them I hear,

Ugh... just, ugh.

Whilst I know some people are of the mindset "once a cheater, always a cheater" and will flat out refuse to assist you because of it, I see no harm in telling you the truth. BattlEye bans your ID, which is tied to your Steam account. It doesn't distinguish based on IP address or anything like that. Using a different key will solve the problem. The bottom line is that people who have hacked are getting banned, and BattlEye will continue to do it. I know that people here will continue to yap about getting killed by hackers every ten minutes, but that's just bull. There's an awful lot of rage infused hyperbole bandied about these forums, just make sure you don't act the prick again and try "new scripts".

I think those are sniper traps mate lol. They set a tent up in a high traffic area so people take pause at it, then jam a .50 in their dome.

This.

Why The Fuck Do You Type Like This? Why Put A Capital Letter At The Start Of Every Single Word? I mean, really, what the fuck is wrong with you? Do you think it makes you look intelligent or something? 16 years of age and you don't know what a capital letter is for, that's a disgrace. Let's face it kid, typing like you're totally illiterate has got nothing to do with it being 5AM where you are, you're just dense.

Snore.

A gaming clan founded on a religious background, sorry but I fail to see the logic behind that, to be honest.
