Why is this advertised as a Zombie game?
jay.pis replied to SolarClipz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's just funny when people say this though because this holds true for any time of multiplayer game that has players and NPC mobs. It's even worse if you apply this to lets say to PvE only games such as Dead Island, you take out the zombies and now what do you get? what about L4D? OR worse what if you did this for MMO's, lets say you remove ALL NPC mobs in World of Warcraft?!? I'm just sayin... -
Zombies "agro" from ridiculous distances
jay.pis replied to Coebear33's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Haha, this happened to me last night. This zombie was tough as shit too, I emptied a clip on him but still kept coming he was able to get some good hits on me so I started bleeding. He chased me for a good while until I finally died. -

I'm talking about your previous post and that it seems like you're playing a released game. Why do you think there isn't much to do in the game? that's because it is pretty much still Arma2 with barebones features. -

But why do you think that is? it's fairly obvious and I just mentioned it in my previous posts :D -

We all get frustrated sometimes but that doesn't mean we should completely bash on a game that's clearly still in development, why not just go in the suggestions forum and create a thread on what is bothering him and suggest things that can improve gameplay for him? -

Because if Z's were real and 10 of them were chasing me, brought me down and started eating me alive you best bet that with my last ounce of strength that I'm gonna shoot your ass for being a douche by just standing there and watching. -

The thing is that it's not just the zombies there are so many more things that needs to be done, you seem to forget that this mod is still in development, it has barebones features. Features such as item/weapon maintenance/degrading system would do wonders, more map variety, a lot more zombies with better animation and AI, less chances of of obtaining high grade weapons and ammo and add in a good murder system that lets players know that you're either friendly or not but does not penalize players for being bandits. Those are just some suggestions and there are many more that can be added to the game without completely changing the whole concept, which is to SURVIVE. So instead of whining what about coming into terms that this is still in development and you're just one of the 800K+ testers of this mod. Also how is making the zombies more threatening going to change that persons attitude towards shooting you? and shoot first and ask later is a survival tactic. -
DayZ = Unreal Tournament Deathmatch.
jay.pis replied to moisan4's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Do any of these people realize that this is a still in development MOD? Is it just me or am I taking crazy pills or something? I'm guessing you want to add in WoW features and remove pvp right? Typical. -

If you have a PS3 you might want to check out a game on the PSN called I Am Alive. -

jay.pis replied to SolarClipz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The fact still remains, you're still trying to survive from players or zombies alike. We would all like to hear your version of a zombie SURVIVAL game and please don't say Dead Island or L4D. Those games are straight up coop shooters. -

I'll leave it at ZERO survival skills. You're basically playing it like those other games. LOL, not gonna work. I've kept alive for 12 hours, stocked with food/drink and some pretty good gear and I've killed ZERO other players. Get smart and play smart. -

How is bringing back the bandit skins going to help? -

Seriously? you really honestly think that this is just another Dead Island or Left 4 Dead clone? Obviously you have no survival skills. :thumbsup: -
If DayZ wasn't situated in Chernarus
jay.pis replied to shemashko's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yes, but how many with the same concept and gameplay as DayZ? Having an extra city map doesn't hurt, if you are sick of it then stick to Chernarus. -
If DayZ wasn't situated in Chernarus
jay.pis replied to shemashko's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Or what about another map same size as Chernarus but just one big city, all buildings enter-able. :thumbsup: What would top it off is if they had features from games such as I Am Alive and Assassins Creed where you can climb structures. :D -

jay.pis replied to shemashko's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
For me I think that Chernarus just needs to add like a big major city and more rocky terrain and some dense jungles. -
Steam autoupdate fucked my Operation Arrowhead please help
jay.pis replied to Donkamints's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
That had happened to me last night, I just closed Steam and restarted my laptop and it worked after. -
Euphoria is a good engine, my cousin worked on Red Dead Redemption as an animator and I loved the Undead Nightmare version. It is not a full game engine though, mostly for animation and physics. It should be fine if he sticks to Arma3 engine as long as he can implement all the features that he wants in Dayz.

What kind of landscape would you like to see in a DayZ stand alone game?
jay.pis replied to scouski's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
That's because of the Arma2 engine, it's outdated, and I'm not entirely sure if it is using it but occlusion culling would alleviate some of the problem. For those that don't know what that is it's basically this - Occlusion Culling what it does is it only renders what is in view of the camera. Hopefully they've updated their engine for Arma3 with some focus in performance, specially if DayZ decides to use it. Also, they can have different maps as well so a big city map can be on different servers. -
Someone blew up the hospital in Cherno earlier today.
jay.pis replied to Thortimer's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Meh, hack or not at least it's something that adds to the game. -
If standalone is released by the end of the year.....
jay.pis replied to entelin's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Can you imagine, instead of buying Arma 3 everyone goes for the standalone DayZ instead.
