JESUSARIUS REX (DayZ)

one thing i wonder is if it is going to be through steam or like BI's website. I would honestly prefer steam, but I know that would raise the price point a bit.

The mod seems to be running a lot better for me now. Thanks to everyone who worked on it. :)

People always say that they don't like official servers because there are way more hackers, so they play on private hives. Over my 7 to 8 months of playing dayz, I've never seen hackers anywhere except private hives. Why? Because the chances of them getting global ban are a lot less high on private servers. If they get banned from a private hive, it doesn't matter. A ban from the actual hive matters.

First thing I did was shoot a zombie in the head when I got the update :). Also I have yet to ever see a hacker on dayz. In fact, I've seen one hacked weapon since I started playing in what was it, March or April? Maybe I'm just really lucky, but then again no one in my squad except for one member has seen a hacker.

Lol rocket just posted a thing on the tumblr basically saying what I was saying but with more knowledge :P

In arma, every single bullet is processed in real time. Also the players don't have hit boxes like in battlefield or call of duty. And yes the AI take a lot too, even the zombies in dayz. The zombies in dayz basically use a modified arma enemy ai, so basically instead of finding cover and stuff, they are to run at you at the best path they can find and smack you. In the standalone, much of the AI mechanics that are not needed will be gone, and the code will be directly involved with the engine. Can't wait till this come out :), so much more fun without zig zaggy zoombiezz.

In humans the water in your cells freezes, and destroys the cells, much like an icicle to the stomach could kill you. I also think it expands the cells too.

by gods name they better. The arma 2 water is too dangerous for the sane mind.

Ya make sure to release the game before akbar kony mayan zombie batman 2012 arrives to kill everyone on earth lol. I think its due sometime in november, from what rocket has said. About 3 to 4 weeks from now

Making a game is like building a house. Theirs no point in building a house with a bunch of holes in the wall, and constantly patching them. Hence why many fear that warz is going to be bad. It was built with war incs engine, which is an unfinished house itself. Dayz is built in real virtuality, a tried and true engine. I'm happy rockets taking his time too, because it means it's going to be fun to play when it comes out.

Lol COD. I doubt it. Really the only game I see that has frequent aimbotters is COD. I think I've seen one or two on battlefield. Never on the dayz mod.

Seriously, can't wait. The screenshots amazed me and my friends. Looks purty :)

Sorry for the off topic post but, it would be cool if radios served this purpose.

Do you think you could add cats that scare away the zombies, like how in minecraft they scare away creepers. Just a suggestion since you said you was going for the minecraft model. Also can't wait for the standalone. Gunna be great having a less resource hoggy dayz!

You can run it over

It's so dumb that Greece is keeping them still. It makes sense to arrest them and question them, but they know by now they aren't terrorists, so why don't they just let them go.

First off, I don't blame Greece for arresting them. Who the hell is dumb enough to go around filming military installations without permission. I'm sorry, but getting arrested is there fault for doing something stupid. But, I think its retarded that Greece is actually keeping them in custody for more than a couple of days... they're obviously not a threat. I mean yes they were taking picture of a military base, but who the hell would want to attack Greece... Have fun getting blown up by terrorists :)

Ya +1. As much as loot maps help, they ruin the play experience. The most fun I had with dayz is when I ran around the coast with my friend, and then making our way up north to the unknown.

Cool that you guys support private hives. Makes sense now that your not working on the mod as much.

Can I haz cheezburgerz?

Ya I understand that, but my server hoster overstepped their boundries and made it so we literally couldn't ban anyone, and we had to constantly kick the same hacker over and over. Probably why we just let the server payment end lol. But +1 to official servers.

That angers me... being an admin on a good server we got very aggravated that we didn't have very much control. In fact, we couldn't ban, even when we found hacker for sure. We also had a strong community of the same players. All you have to do is report a server, and once maybe 2-5 people complain, it will be investigated and dealt with

I see what your saying, but when you have a gun with rare ammo like the svd or m4 sd its a good idea to stock up on ammo. In my clan it's not so we have an instant respawn. If you die in our clan, you have to scavenge and work your way to camp, hopefully finding some cool stuff along the way. Although my clan doesn't do what you're talking about, I see the same flaws you see, but I still need tents lol. It's people like this that get the thread locked lol

TBH, I've been behind rocket all the way, but how many updates has it been? 3? and main reason for the update is graphical bugs, and they're still not fixed. I mean, I'm a patient person. I've been fine with the graphical bugs not being fixed, but seriously... still after this many updates? I mean, I'd still rather have you work on the standalone, but come on lol. Oh well, I won't be mad as long as you give me a REALLYYYYY FUNNNNNN standalone :)

Your good looking rocket :)
