    Freezing with full clothing on

    Why is my character constantly freezing with all these clothes on, and running all the time on top of that???

    Freezing with full clothing on

    I'm on Chernarus+ btw, playing on an official vanilla server as well so nothing custom.

    BETA Status Report - November 28

    https://www.dayzrp.com/forums/topic/87700-dayz-063beta-discussion-thread/?page=14&tab=comments#comment-1611939 Our community has been very supportive of DayZ for a long time but seriously, the current state of updates is seriously underwhelming and soul crushing. Nothing but disappointment.

    My Bandit Bag, What's In Yours?

    You're carrying an SKS and an AKM, which both use the same ammunition, what's the point?

    German military vehicle: LGS Fennek. An Easy addition to SA

    You're still completely ignoring the point. Dayz is meant to be a player VS environment game mostly when near completion, it is meant to get players to fight the zombie threat, not to be a militarized PVP warzone with a side dish of zombie annoyance. Military vehicles have no place in this setting, the vehicles should be common cars and trucks that can easily be repaired and maintained by the general populace, not ones that required an engineering degree to be taken care of. It's already been said that armored vehicles are going to be almost exclusively civilian vehicles that had extensive work done on them with metal plates and a makeshift armoring, maybe even wooden boards.

    Sigh. These kind of vehicles were in the mod before because it was derived from a military simulator, there's no need for military vehicles in a zombie apocalypse survival game. If you want to drive these vehicles, you're playing the wrong game. DayZ isn't supposed to be DayZ mod V 2.0, it's supposed to be stripped of everything that was unnecessary, and that includes most of the military stuff that was in only because it was in the base game assets.

    Items in your hot keys

    That's funny I used basically the same setup, except I usually have the rest of my hotbar also set for specific items. 1- Melee 2- Handgun 3- Rifle 4- First aid kit 5- Compass (don't really use it, right click and inspect in inventory instead) 6- Map 7- Binoculars 8 and 9- Items I won't always carry but might need like lockpicks, handcuffs, knife, rangefinder, etc.

    Damage and dead bodies

    You also have to take latency into account. Disparities between what is happening on your screen and what is happening on your opponent's screen will more often than not give the time to the other one to react to the shots before the actual information of being dead reaches the server.

    How do i find where i put my tent?

    Find a landmark on the map from which you can go in a straight line to the emplacement you want to put down the tent. When you want to find it again, find the landmark, point the right direction, and walk till you find your tent again. Basic navigation really.

    Punish 'Stuffed'?

    Yellow "stuffed" means you had a good meal, orange "stuffed" says you ate more than normal, why punish players for eating until they are full? We do it IRL, I don't see the issue here.

    Any role play servers

    Why not DayZRP? It's the best RP community, you got banned?

    Clearing this up: DayZ is NOT years afterwards

    If this was years after the outbreak, roads would be in much poorer conditions, and vegetation would have at least partially overgrown some parts of the less traveled road system.

    Broken legs?

    Stop perpetrating idiocies. This is a glitch that happens when there is a sync break where you client shows where you are and where the server "thinks" where you are, often resulting in your legs breaking. Mostly happens when moving up stairs or trying to pick up floating items.
  16. I thought the first guy you met was going to turn on you from the video's title, glad I was wrong.

    What Do You Consider To Be "Exploiting" In This Game?

    It's not cheating, it's abuse of game mechanics. If you exploit a game mechanic in a way that it's not meant to be used, it's an abuse, cheating would be using a third-party program. Just like duping items is a glitch and not cheating, it's just exploiting a glitch. Doesn't mean it's fair or that it should be done.

    Signs of damage (Bruises, Cuts, Bullet wounds)

    Also suggested this a long time ago. They already have an overlay to show clothing damage, one more to show wounds shouldn't be a problem.

    DayZ 0.5 first impression after long break

    You clearly stated you stopped playing because you said and I quote "have not been able to find a better gun then a mosin for about a month". Now, unless you think a 1911 pistol is better than a mosin, you're obviously referring to the M4A1, AK101 or the AKM, which are indeed assault rifles. New features? One of them is agriculture, growing vegetable. But since you don't have enough time like I do and they don't have assault rifle seeds implemented yet, you probably won't be doing that either. You are talking about being rewarded for spending time and resources to find what you are looking for, while completely ignoring the luck factor. You also state having being shot at and having nothing to show for it. If you lived through an hostile encounter and feel like you have nothing to show for it, well all I can say is that your own perception of what is enjoyable or not is the only thing preventing you from having fun. Let me reiterate, you have been shot at, and survived. That in itself is an achievement to be proud of.

    DayZ 0.5 first impression after long break

    If you think the game's not worth playing because you can't find an automatic rifle, you're playing the wrong game. This is a survival game, not a FPS. There's plenty to do and a lot of very cool new features to explore, you shouldn't let the scarcity of high end military weapons drive you away from a very fun gaming experience.

    Time Alive

    No. That's like saying "let's take the car for a ride" when all you have is an engine and four wheel on the floor. When the game is in alpha, we are not playing it, we are testing it. Gameplay elements come in the beta. Right now the game is being fleshed out, what you don't seem to understand is that those things that are being put into the game like guns and items are not being prioritized over other elements. They are being put in because the developer has multiple departments that deal with different aspects of the game. The people that are qualified for working in the design and modeling department probably aren't familiar with what's needed for coding or testing other parts of the game. Each department deals with what their job qualifications are. Some things take more time, while things like 3D modeling is less time consuming. Take a break and come back in the beta, then you might have a point.
  22. I think that the current clothing system seriously lacks in the layering department, both for reasons of keeping yourself warm and having more inventory space. I understand the way it is currently implemented for balancing issues, but there's no reason whatsoever why you shouldn't be able to have a shirt under a raincoat for example. There are many combination that would make sense, and because of the current weather/temperature system, some pieces of clothing seems to have gone completely obsolete, unless they are the only thing you have found. I used to enjoy going around in a white plaid shirt with a vest on top, but now with the weather and rain, this option eventually leads to hypothermia and death. This seriously needs to be addressed. Here are the combinations that I think should be allowed. T-shirts and shirts should be allowed to be worn under anything. Hoodies should be able to be worn under all jackets, unless a T-shirt or shirt is already under it. Tracksuit jackets should be able to be worn under any jacket, unless a T-shirt, a shirt or a hoodie is under it. This means that at any time there can only be a combination of two chest items. In this situation, a hoodie with a tracksuit jacket on top should keep you both warm and possibly dry, and give you a total of 6 inventory spaces, separated as if they were worn by themselves (2x2 for the hoodie, 1x2 for the tracksuit jacket). An option to pull the hood up would also be nice, even necessary. Now for the belt slot. I think that the current inventory system is lacking a belt slot. We could be wearing simple leather belts, 1x2 slots fanny packs , tactical belts that pouches or first a aid kit could be attached to, a leg gun holster could also be attached to a belt. I also suggest that any pants that have a belt attached to them could hold a gun the same way one is held in a gun holster. The gun would actually be fitted on the inside of the pants, in the back or the front, and hidden/tucked under the top clothing. That would give us more options to hide pistols while remaining very realistic. The waterskin idea is one that I had recently while skinning a goat. There should be a way to make a waterskin with an large animal pelt, a knife, a sewing kit, a rope and an empty water bottle (for the top part). It could be worn outside the clothing and would hold about as much as a canteen. Discuss.
  23. Just a little tip about melee, if you have anything but a fire axe, drop it and punch the zombies in the face. It's easy and it knocks them out, repeat until they fall on their back. Any weapon other than a fire axe or anything that takes care of a zombie in 1 to 3 hits puts you at risk of retaliation, letting a zombie get free hits on you is counter productive.
  24. I got an 6+ years old PC still with the stock CPU running at 3.0 Ghz, how the hell did you spend £2000 and get a 2.8 Ghz CPU???? Also set your 3D resolution to the same resolution as your monitor, if I read your screenshot right you're currently trying to render the game at twice your monitor's resolution which should be 1440x900, a standard 16:10 monitor resolution. That's obviously your problem right there.

    I Give up... I really want my money back.

    So basically you're bad at the game?
