I have experienced some heavy ghosting; resulting in other players disappering/getting stuck in front of me or me disappering from other players (been told so by a friend I play with). That might be a plausible solution.

The one mentioned above didn´t work for me when I started playing. You will have to tweak your graphic settings, that will do the trick. Hit ESC button, click Video and you get four different red tabs - go to one on the bottom right (can´t remember at the moment what it is called) and turn down/off everything in that menu - that did it for me and also a friend of mine.

I got this message the whole time last night, has nothing to do with Green Mountain. The "stories" of Green Mountain are as old as the mod itself, can´t believe that players bother to start this joke all over again. Went to Green Mountain myself and it is the same as always, although it is not as good as the Day Zero-version. All the "feeling dizzy", "you need to rest" etc messages is just a mess at his point

After building my first PC the direct voice (hitting caps lock) doesn´t work anymore. The mic icon pops up on the screen, but players doesn´t hear my voice. The rest of the game works fine and I hear other players using direct voice. I´ve tested it with a friend, so I know it´s not my headset (Tritton 720+) that is causing the problem; and I´m also using Mumble to communicate with my friend in-game. I´m an experienced DayZ player and used direct voice many times on my previous computer. My parts are ASUS Zabertooth Z77 MoBo ASUS Xonar Phoebus Solo soundcard Inten i7-3770 core EVGA GTX 780 Win 8 Tritton 720+ headset Everything works fine with the mic in other games; except the in-game voice in DayZ. It´s very weird not being able to talk to other players and everybody now count me as hostile since I don´t respond and there is usually no time to sit down and type. And what´s the point doing a co-op with a non-communicating player? Anyone have a clue what to do to get this working again? This is my first PC after +15 years owning Macs, so please be specific if I need to tweak something

*** SOLVED *** Thanks to JSparks this issue is now solved :D It worked after setting the Tritton 720+ as Default; and I also ran ARMA II as admin - now it sings like a bird :beans:

Direct voice worked on the DE1 server (Zombies.nu) two nights ago

Hmm, that´s a good point. Been playing mostly on two Zombies.nu (DayZero) servers lately, but as far as I remember this has also been the case on other servers too. Been playing some hours on different servers and after a while I got this nagging feeling that no one did hear me since they didn´t respond at all when I was talking. I´m pretty sure this isn´t the case, but not 100%

Have you checked out this very good guide? This gave me and a friend a lot better performance, both fps and visual. Now I can finally spot people in the distance http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/28160-guide-how-to-set-up-your-graphics-properly/

No one has yet mentioned the new air drops that can be found out in the fields. Have come across 4 or 5 of them and have found AKM´s, AKS´ and Chez Backpack around them; also ammo and the usual garbage. The funny thing is that after the latest patch I have found 1, ONE, heli crash after hours and hours of playing. At this point I would say that there is almost no heli crashes at all. Am I right?

The adrelaline rush and the fact that you never know what gonna happen next. It´s just unpredictable in a postive way

I use Bootcamp and it works well. Doesn´t get the best FPS, around 20-30 but it works fine for me. I´ve got a Macbook Pro, 2.6 Ghz Intel Core i7 with 16 16Gb 1600 Mhz DDR3 But you must tweak the graphic settings: follow these instructions and you wil lsing like a bird :) http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/28160-guide-how-to-set-up-your-graphics-properly/

2) I shot a guy a couple of days ago with a CZ 550 and let the zombies finnish him off. Didn´t bother to waste bullets on the two zombies that approached; I was just a few meter away from the victim. The zeds fed on him while he was bleeding out. Didn´t get a kill for that.

Seems to me that the deer stands has been serioulsy nerfed after the latest patch. Haven´t found ANY guns in these now. Mainly garbage, chemligts and a little ammo now and then :(

Haven´t almost played any End Game (BF3) after it´s release or BF3 for that matter. Found on this forum some graphics tweaks that gave me a huge boost and made the game so much more enjoyable three weeks ago :D And yeah, no more Skyrim :)

if you´re using DayZ Commander to launch the mod; there is tab named "Recent" that lists up your recent server in historical order so you don´t need to write the server name down

I agree with The Designer. Absolutely nothing is rare these days. There is "rare" items everywhere. You can find dead bodies in ghilie suits with AS50 and 5 rounds and nothing more. Not a can of pepsi or bandages. Nothing but A+ weapons. Man, the hackers has just in a few weeks totally wrecked this mod. No point in spending hours searching for good loot when at least one person on each server I´ve visited the last week is a hacker and spawns with absolutely everything and can kill everybody with just a few punches on the keyboard. It´s really just a joke at the moment.

First, sorry for crashing this thread, but what is the point of this trading? At the moment there are a LOT of hacked-in stuff around. Last night at Elektro me and my friend ran over a dead gang of six players with absolutely everything on them - ghilies, AS50, nightvisions, silenced primary and secondary, military flashlights, bear traps, sandbags, rangefinder - you name it! The town was more or less a fortress, and they must have scripted inn all the barbwire, sandbags and tanktraps. It was hilarious. And lot of dead bodies and as far as I could see, they had killed themselves/logged out when they got bored. My last week of playing I´ve been killed every night by hackers, and three nights found cardboxes with scripted loot. These cardboxes contains everything you need in the game, included food and drinks. At this point the game is wrecked by hackers and it´s really sad. What is the point of heading for NW Airfield when hackers can kill you anytime and anywhere? At one point a hacker didn´t manage to kill me west of the airfield, so instead he ran a script that just ended my life. Until the standalone has been launched the only solution is to pay to get on the closed servers with private hives that are closely monitored.

Sula; tried to PM you, but got the message "This member cannot receive any messages at the moment" or something like that :/

Maybe an idea to tag if you can speak english or not?

Hopefully the standalone version will give us as much joy as the alpha has

Yeah, what´s this about missing your packback when wearing a ghillie?! This happened me too. I thought it was a glitch

To me this seems totally legit. You can be on a server with 40 player and see no one for hours, only dead bodies. And I´ve been on a servers with only a few players and have run into one of them far up in the north, just totally in the middle of nowhere. The few times I´ve been killed by hackers they have just started a script that kills multiple players at the same time. So, in DayZ expect to run into snipers / loners / bandits everywhere. And the stuff you lost is pretty common, you´ll get ´em all next time you play

This really changes from each time you play. Some rounds I´ve been filled up with beans and sodas, found binoculars, knife and mathces within 30 mins, but other rounds they are just nowhere to find. Perhaps several other players had just looted the same spots just a short time before you entered the same spots? Once I ran through all of Cherno without finding a single gun or rifle - absolutely nothing. And the city was surrounded by several snipers that killed me twice before I the third attempt managed to find an axe and flanked one of them up on the hills. He shot me before I came close enough, the bastard :( But yeah, DayZ is cruel. And that´s why I love it.

There is no reason why you should lay down if they where trying to give you blood. This works fine also when crouched. But I´ve experienced when trying to give blood to another player that I don´t get the choice in the menu to give blood, although I have the bloodbag. Perhaps they where just trying to fuck with you? I don´t know. But on the other hand; you got a helluva loot!

First; DayZ is still in alpha so rule no. 1 is to never get too attached to your equipment ´cause you will loose it at some point. DayZ has a lot of bugs. Second; if the stuff you lost was placed in a tent it will reappear next time the server is restarted. This was the case not long a ago, but this might have been changed since the last update.
