DayZ literally made me soil myself
taco241 replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
yuck. Was it wet or solid? If wet, it's easy for it to sneak out. -
You have been shamed ghoster.
-
I also suggest you migh have a motherboard issue. Maybe some other hardware coflict. Very shity thing to diagnose. You might need to take it into local shop if you know one where the guys actually do something to diagnose issues rather than talk you into a new system. GL. Feel sorry for you. If the machine is new, complain like crazy.

More sandbox Pvp then survival?
taco241 replied to Evilsausage's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I highly suggest you try DayZ origins. Customizable vehicles, building houses (if you're willing to do a lot of work/scavenging), NPC island if you want to test your skills against elite guards. Leveling as a hero or bandit, etc, etc,. -
Easier way to switch gun from backpack to main slot?
taco241 replied to buzzcut13's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
As others havepointed out, open your bag, and move the gun from your bag, to your main inventory. This will swap guns as well as ammo quickly. -
:) this is obviously not serious. Thanks for the troll/lols.

I still think instanced bases is the worst thing you could do to Dayz.
taco241 replied to scaramoosh's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I agree with Gews and most of the sentiments here. Underground bases seem silly. Why would a survivor start excavating and pouring concrete, buttressing dirt walls, trying to waterproof it , etc. etc.? LEt's make use of existing structure. Add a few more buildings (which I believe will happen anyway), and maybe some old APCs that can be used as locked storage and barricaded shelter. A clan or group could take over a small village but would have to stick around to protect it or risk being pillaged. Locks/boarded windows, etc. could be added, without the need to design an elaborate instancing system. -
Meet up with people, try helping others, try some mods or different maps (I highly suggest trying Origins). There's a lot of fun to be had besides gearing up.

Fastest way to switch weapon in your hand with weapon in your bag?
taco241 replied to KlinkKlink's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
do what mZLY said^ go into your bag, double click your gun, and it'll quickly swap places with your hatchet - gun in hand, hatchet in pack. Remember though that this quick-swap only works if you move items FROM your backpack to your hand not the other way around. I hope this gets patched. Hell, I'd prefer if you could just swap to hatchet when it's on the toolbelt. -
DayZ Commander isn't bloatware. I'm glad you know your way around the patches and manual updates but for those who don't,it a very easy and intuitive interface. It chews up an excessive bit of RAM but you can just shut it down once you're in game
-
Yeah I agree with Terminalboy^. Can you imagine how immersion breaking it would be to see someone running around, taking a shot at him, and him LOLing t you due to invulnerability, plus you'll probably aggro some Zs and players with your shooting. I see no benefit to this.

Hi there. You have a great video card but a terrible processor for gaming. Arma II and dayZ are CPU intensive programs. you will need to upgrade your CPU, and your motherboard. I highly suggest you get an intel CPU. you might find a good deal on an i5 2500K or i5 3570 and pair it with a budget motherboard ($50). If you shop right, you can do it for $200-$250.
-
When you log out, you keep your gear. tents/vehicles you own will likely also stay around,unless someone finds and loots or destroys them. You only start a new character when you die.

Toss in some cotton candy and I'm there.

Always incorrect version. Help. Now.
taco241 replied to ThatCampingOwl's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
I don't get it. It's always worked fine for me. And I've installed it 3 separate times (due to me fucking around with things) Try uninstalling everything, and deleting all steam your ARMA steam folders, reinstalling ARMA II and then installing ARMA II:OA. Run both again (until you get to the menu). Then, download DayZ commander and install the DayZ mod (and Arma Beta Patch) through that. GL -
New Computer, Will Dayz run on max?
taco241 replied to FishyPwns's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
If you have the new rig,why not just install dayZ and run it to find your answer? -
Iagree. DayZ Commander, is easy and intuitive. It features a favourites and recent list as well as friends, plus all the server filter you want. Origins servers are there. Use the filter.
-
How about your character can have an ID card/wallet on him (this is what you can use to identify kills). So you can only change the name when your current character dies.
-
I don't believe you'll be able to play the game effectively. If you plan on upgrading soon, go ahead and try it though.
-
You just have to remember that in Eastern states (and much of the world) Gun shops are very uncommon. The US seems to have a fair share but I think it would look odd in Chernarus. Cop-stations on the other hand sound good to me...not for adding more guns but maybe shifting some from places like the fire station and deer stands.
-
Sorry. You'll need to invest in a new motherboard, CPU, and a dedicated video card. about a $300-ish upgrade
-
Why do we need fancy new features anyways?
taco241 replied to AfterShave's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I don't think new features will be EA/Big Hollywood Movie Producer type of features. They'll be new features that will enhance upon the game you actually enjoy now. Let's raise a glass to the SA! -
Also stay away from: 1 - ATVs 2 - Don't use vault to get into those log homes that are raised up a bit where you can't quite walk into them
-
Finally, a use for the toilet paper!
