I'll be honest, OP, what your are saying makes absolutely zero sense. This "zoom", I see it as your eyes having the ability to actually focus on an object like you can focus in real life, both 3PP and Hardcore get this "zoom" option, when your weapon is sighted, like said above you can't "zoom" any further unless using a scope. If you want "zoom" removed then it should also removed it from 3PP servers, lets also make it so the camera in 3PP can't go around doorways or over fences. Honestly, with all the respect possible, you sound like you went to a Hardcore server and got owned in a fire fight or something. Please take a moment to sit back, catch your breath and think about what you just posted. So totally cereal. -a person that plays 3PP and Hardcore, enjoy both.

Great post, Sounds like my experiences in DayZ Beans Sir +1

PvE Servers DO NOT exist.

Thank you for this video, I find it completely amazing you did this and posted it, especially since it took over 2 hours and 30 minutes. Post-Processing though, I don't use it for the reasons Mos1ey stated. Many thanks, have my beans

I have seen some that had TP already on the heat sink or CPU, although the last two computers I built didn't. Yes you have to use TP or else heat wont be released from the CPU correctly and the life span will be shortened greatly or you will just straight burn it up.

The only thing that I find worry-some about building my own computers, is putting the thermal paste on the CPU and heat sink. Even then though its not that bad. You also save money in the long run if you build your own. Yes, that PC you linked is enough to run DayZ, but it is over priced imo. Currently I am running this: Case: Cooler Master 932 HAF case CPU: Intel® Core i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.7GHz GPU: EVGA GTX670 Superclocked Ram: 12 gigs. Power: OCZ 800watt power supply Mobo: EVGA X58 FTW3 Those are the basics to mine, I probably have about 12-1400 dollars total into my computer, wanted to make sure it would last a long time. DayZ is very CPU heavy and even after "un-parking" all my cores I still get noticeable lag in Cherno and Elektro, but only those two cities. My other thoughts are to try and stick with Win7, I haven't heard anything good about Win8 yet, make sure you get something with a really good CPU and GPU. edit: If you have made your mind up about building your own computer this is my biggest advice TAKE YOUR TIME, do not get discouraged if something does not go exactly right, just take your time and have fun doing it.

I have one very simple KoS rule If the other player has any weapon and it is raised and pointed at me, I will always shoot. Just like real life training, it's all about threat levels. To the OP, I've been playing DayZ since, well, I don't remember when I started but it was long before private hives and extra maps (in the mod). Don't get bent out of shape over a few bad lives, there are people on these forums that have had many many more bad ones then just two and their still friendly.

Hit the nail on the head there, yes I do not agree with certain play styles, but I do sympathize with all play styles and the standalone game has brought out even more play styles, all of which I find amazing. Whether it be players running the coast helping each other, that guy that you get in a fist fight with as a new spawn, or the group that cuffs you and forces you to drink Disinfectant (favorite video to date was Lirik's Tragedy). Yes, all play styles in my book are welcomed (except those hackers, go to hell hackers/scripters), though I may not agree/play those styles strictly per-say, I can see that the 900k people that have bought the game so far are not all the same, everyone has their style and they will play their style, in some cases though they should/may have to wait. on another note: And I actually ended my trek south somewhere near, well, I can't say and I've decided that I'm going to kill coast campers and try helping who I can until my next life. I'm thinking that life will be a strictly survival life.

I bought Rust last night to see what it was about and instantly regretted playing 20$ for it. Played for an hour, never go anything more then a stone axe and a bullet to the face. Never again I think. DayZ isn't broken, its actually quite good for an Alpher

As a player that will NEVER go to a PvE server I will say this: My opinion is that PvE servers should not be allowed at all until private hive servers are. The amount of gear farming from PvE servers and then going to coast camp and shoot new spawns would be atrocious. I fully understand that players want to play the game the way they want to play it I'm all for that, but this is an "Alpher" and until the game is fully released rules must be set in place so proper testing and game mechanics can be evaluated, PvE severs would not benefit the production of this game at the moment. Plus If you as a player want a PvE experience, all you have to do is spawn and run North, I have been North of Stary Sobor for about a week now and still alive and constantly running between NWAF and NEAF while visiting Guba. Although I'm about to head to Kamyshovo or Solnichniy and make at attempt at shooting bandits or helping new players. Let'em play the way they want to play, but only after DayZ is a fully released game.

Seriously man, you just need to take a break when shit like this happens. Earlier today I "fell" more like skipped out of the apartment buildings north of Balota, of course I died, re-spawned, died again and took a break. Never did get my body back, but in the end it was for the better, I have better gear then I had then and I'm avoiding high rises until the lag is fixed. There is nothing ti rage about, like everyone has said you paid for an alpha and your going to rage about an alpha, then in my opinion, like everyone, you should quit and play again at a later date. Second thought judging by your signature and demeanor I would say your a bandit, and you expect to not run into combat loggers, especially if your rolling 10 people deep and going against 1 or 2 new spawns at a time. Grow a pair bro and go north, or at least find people that are a challenge. edit: Don't try to flame me about judging you for possibly being a bandit, I could care less, I never combat log and I'm neither a bandit or a hero, just a survivor doing whatever it takes to survive.

My entire group of about 15 people have been reset, and reset every time they change a server, seems like the hive itself is down.

So the hive is down, servers are working but it sounds like the hive itself is down.

I find that my screen tends to freeze at the exact time the ambient sound loops, meaning it starts over again

Thanks, I simply misread the post as I didn't see the "Experimental" part, my bad for checking the forums while trying to take care of my five month old and spending time with my family. All I care about is bodies not disappearing if and when I shoot some one.
