Try running it on one core, having more than one actually makes the game struggle :(

No the graphic glitches are a temporary bug for everyone, What core CPU do you have?

Take my beans good sir.

Date/Time: 19:20 BST What happened: Any server I join, I'm getting a max of 8FPS, completely unplayable (measured framerate in FRAPS). I haven't changed anything since last night (when it was running VERY smoothly). I've checked all processes etc nothing running in the background that should cause this. I've noticed there are two new options in the menu - something to do with trees and PP something, didn't look properly.. Can't stress enough I haven't changed a thing in the settings/server/connection since last night and it's all of a sudden done this. Where you were: Any server What you were doing: Anything *Current installed version: v1.7.2.4 *Server(s) you were on: Any *Your system specs: AMD Phenom II Black edition processor, HIS Radeon HD6870 IceQ edition, 8GB DDR3 RAM, 2TB free space. *Timeline of events before/after error: Last night = Playing game fine, Right now = can't do anything.

Try running the game on only one CPU, task manager/processes/right click arma2.exe/set affinity/uncheck all but CPU 0.. Arma 2's engine has difficulty handling AMD based multi-core processors..

I love playing at night, though I'm a little cheeky, I turn the gamma up a little ;)

You need Arma II & Operation Arrowhead to play, BUT I hear you can install it with a demo of Arma II (you'd still have to buy OA) - graphics wont be as good but it'll cost you less to test!.. Unfortunately I can't advise with the mac problem, my answer to any mac gaming problems is "just get a PC" ;)

They have considered it, Rocket has mentioned it several times on the forum (even created a topic asking us what we thought about it, but I can't find it).. You'll be happy to know it got a lot of responses and Rocket himself said it might be something they look into when they can start making the game 100% standalone (not dependant on having Arma II), he's also said they he would be working towards getting it on Arma III's engine.

This does make me wonder whether there'll be an age limit for this game when it's released as standalone and what it'll end up being..

This happened to me, was pretty hilarious actually.

Good ol' Fluffysauruss

Twisted and pointless imo.

This is a visual manifestation of the only thing I hate about online games :(

Find a zombie, then run at him?..

Heh.. Bendy dance. To be honest, people like that are just dumbasses, unfortunately, 50% of the population on the servers are also like that.. It's often kill or be killed. Though, if I see people with weapons, I leave them alone aha

I'm a relatively new player to Day-Z, but what i've been playing so far has been a pretty unique experience that (lets be honest) is long overdue! I understand it's in alpha, theres a great deal of bugs and these are being worked on so I won't bother mentioning any of these.. The only thing that (really) bugs me are the splash screens in the game. Specifically the "You are dead" screen. I'm actually a designer myself and was thinking that the "You are dead" screen doesn't really flow with any of the design on the site (which in opinion, looks better) I like the font for the DayZ logo (at the top of this site) and think that something like this would be better..? At least having it black and white? or something a little more atmospheric? I could mock up a few ideas if you guys wanted to see what I meant. Another thing was the loading screen, I understand their might be restrictions with modding ARMA 2, but is it possible to change this from the default tanks picture? Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of the mod/game, I just want my designers eye to be as pleased as my gamers eye is from DayZ! Submitted this as a ticket originally and Mason Henrickson suggested posting it up on here for you guys to give feedback/ideas towards this. :)

Just like to say, even though it's in alpha.. they've changed the loading screen! :D I don't know whether Mason (at Bohemia) mentioned something to Rocket after I emailed them or it was just a coincidence, but i'm proper happy I (might have) suggested something that got implemented :).

Many of you would have seen the DayZ equivalent of the image below with a grey axe/hatchet (would get in game screenie but i'm at work). Some of you may have in vain tried to pull the axe out of said tree stump, and after being unsucessfull, thought to yourself "wait.. this is the first thing i'd do in a real zombie apocalypse, so why can't I do it here?!". I think that these objects in the game should have two states, one with a removable hatchet and one that has already had the hatchet removed, just becoming a normal tree stump. Character pulling out axe animation would be nice too, see poll. Anyone else agree?

Ermwut.

Even better story, take my beans good sir.

Meh, screw all the haters. I'm also "the 1%", but at the same time, I fell into a pretty clever bandit trap the other day and I was so impressed I couldn't care about the loot I lost. I haven't had too many run-ins with bandits tbh so they don't bother me, must be quite lucky in that aspect.

Rocket loves you. :thumbsup:

I'd like to know this too!

Hiding in a tree? Genius.

Well OUYA is Android powered, this mod.. well.. it isn't. And I don't think it ever will be, not without a huge team of developers to recreate the entire ARMA2/3 (depending on timescale) engine just for a platform that (in my opinion) might not even become worthwhile due to the huge lack of graphics power/basic functionality (16gb internal memory and 1GB ram, for a start).
