Why vehicles are not in the game yet?
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to capblackshot's topic in General Discussion
rocket said dayz should be released before 2013's gamescom... so i am still carefull with dates. -
combat logging: a constructive thread ?
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to Betabyte (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
the server has to calculate the health, energy, hydration, temperature, stomach, x/y/z-coordinates, inventories, requested interactions, logins-requests for ~50 players. not to mention the pseudointelligent movement, health, attacking-moves and attentionspans of zombies and animals. do you REALLY think the logout is gonna matter? :lol: and i do not know where you are living, but here in germany most DSL-users have a forced re-dialup every 24h hours. i dont want to lose my gear everytime it happens. also gamecrashes/bluescreens happen. the idea of enforced death is just plain stupid. keep the character ingame for ~60s, emit a sound-signal when a player attempts to logout and done. -
blood regen with current notifications
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to need matches's topic in General Discussion
"im feeling over-fed" is describing your stomach. your stomach slowly converts the food you have eaten into energy and water. if you put too much in it (aka eating too much at once) you will throw up. seriously, its not that hard to understand. -
Combat Logging/Server Hopping Brainstorm Thread
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to atmaca (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
90 is excessive, 15 is a joke. if you keep it that low any mid-range encounter with little cover will be as retarded as its now, since you can never be sure if your opponent is prone and waiting for you or just behind a tree logging out. 45-60s at least. imho logging out should cause a medium-loud sound signal as well, so that every participant of the firefight realizes that someone attempts to log out. i do not want to have to rush in like a retard because my enemy might me logging out, -
blood regen with current notifications
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to need matches's topic in General Discussion
the message "i am full" is an indicator that your stomach is full. your energy and hydration is on a different page (though related, of course). -
blood regen with current notifications
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to need matches's topic in General Discussion
if you eat enough to regenerate you will have at least 20min w/o further ongoing notifications. those texts appeat at <600 energy... -

maybe it came with build 113899 - for me it works fine. -
blood regen with current notifications
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to need matches's topic in General Discussion
1) go to a well, drink until nausea (could take 50+ drinks) 2) wait ~2min 3) eat until you see "regeneration" in your inventory 4) ??? 5) profit! -
so far keeping items "rare" has not worked out in dayzmod... we will see how it is gonna go without duping, though. i'd prefer to have no modern assault rifles and snipers (AS50 is just too hard) in dayz at all - mozin-like weaponry should be sufficient.

alpha is not, but christmas may be.

you stop getting messages if your food is >600. to start regen you need 2500+ food... SWALLOW and read the wiki :)

Water Purification [MAYBE NOT SOLVED]
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to EncryptedCode's topic in General Discussion
what about you stop trolling or provide some serious sources? thank you. so far not even one sign of any illness despite several heavy bleedings and 40+ hours of gameplay with 100% well-water. stay away from the ponds and stupid rumors and you are fine. -

confirm regenerating blood is working?
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to onimaster777's topic in General Discussion
we are still lacking a reference on that soda issue, for now i am regenerating fine with drinking it. if you are regenerating or full blood/health you should see the appropriate text in the inventory (at least on build 113899): -
Difference between saline bag and blood bags?
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to flygamer1's topic in General Discussion
if you got no saline bags you can hardly use them. picking them over blood bags would be stupid, but bloodbags come with almost every first aid kit. -
Flashlight Bug? Maybe already posted. Did not see it
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to huf757's topic in General Discussion
http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=300 its the bug report with the 5th most reports - not that hard to find. -
got any source on that one?
-
cereal is 930 food and -250 water. beans are 462 food and 330 water.
-
guess so. some decent indicators would be nice... and i do not know if the source was correct about this, but it was the only serious explanation of the system that i found. i do really wonder where he has got the data from, i think about asking him/her...
-
you stop getting messages when food is 600+ and water is 2000+. regeneration of blood starts when your food is 3500+ and your water is 3000+ though. SWALLOW!

Client Ports for Standalone (Pls Help)
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to FaFFy's topic in General Discussion
if you can stand the delay your 2 mates could use a vpn-tunnel. but as i said before, fixxing your router sounds more like a plan! -
Client Ports for Standalone (Pls Help)
AlcApwn (DayZ) replied to FaFFy's topic in General Discussion
buying a decent router sounds like a pretty good solution to me. never experienced anything like this in the mod. -
the problem is that those suggestion threads are almost useless. its the nature of user suggestions, that only 1-5% of the suggestions are realistic, new and will be implemented (the rest is allready planed or rejected). with such a vast community those threads easily expand to so many pages that nobody bothers to read them completely, and thus many of those suggestions are said several times. if you want to make a serious suggestionlist and help the devs, you have to open one thread, and maintain an ordered list of all suggestions (and dev answers, if existent). update the list as soon as a user posts a new suggestion, and maybe ask a mod to pin the thread. Applied Energistics for an example maintains such a list, and i guess it reduces the spam for their devs by a great amount. same applies for bugs: the amount of duplicate threads in this forum and tickets on feedback.dayzgame.com prove that "using the search function" is too hard for most users. if we would maintain a real list (im not saying their ticketsystem is not great, but it fails to deliver a duplicate-free, ordered list of issues. the voting system is great though!) i guess the duplicate bug reports would decrease and the quality would increase, since one would unite every aspect of a certain bug. a thread with a certain amout of pages contains always duplicate information and many useless statements (useless as in: it does not provide any more information than "i got this issue too"), and you cannot expect a new user to read the whole bunch before posting. maintain a nice list(maybe even colorcoded and with links to the feedbacksystem so that users can vote for a certain issue without dealing with the feedback's search function), and users will maybe stop opening the 10th thread about zombies walking through walls. i would gladly help, if you'd give it a shot. we cant expect the devteam to do that for us, since i guess they are throwing every bit of manpower they have on their programming tasks, so that they will have a decent situation before christmas (tents/vehicles before christmas plz :P ).

you can play it. some servers apparently updated their software, but not their server name. just remove all filters and choose a server with a green dot left next to its name.
