  1. Actually the computer power doubles ever 18 months according to Moore's law ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore%27s_law ) OT: I agree please do not bring dayz to consoles it will result in a dumbed down version of dayz and no one really wants that... (I hope =/ )

    Progress with the KOS issue?

    Enfield is good enough for almost any mid-short range combat (not extremely close though), I won a 2v6 with me and my mate equipped with enfields, our enemies had 1 m24 3 AKM 1 M16A2 and last guy I think only had a pistol. I would say the enfield is easily the best lowgrade weapon in game and you can kill people with far greater equipment as long as you know what you are doing.

    Progress with the KOS issue?

    You have no idea why that sniper was there to begin with, he migh as well have very good reason for taking you out or did you alt f4? cause you said shot at not killed. A few days ago I shot at someone (hit him ones) at stray sobor with a sniper rifle, the guy alt f4's (such a pussy really) and prolly thinks I just kill him for fun. Well my friend was down in the city and I was he's over watch so my objective was to locate and take out any threat that would arise. So just because you get killed by a sniper doesn't necessarily mean you got killed because the sniper was bored or out to get people just for the sake of killing someone. KOS is not a problem the problem is that the only viable way to play this game (efficient) is to kill people for their gear and that you really have no benefits in trusting random people.
  4. People like you deserves a perma ban for life from the game...

    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    Chieftec Smart Series 550W PSU AMD Athlon II X4 630 AM3 (2.8 Ghz) Gigabyte GA-MA785GT-UD3H, Socket-AM3 Crucial DDR3 1333MHz 4BG KIT, CL9 Hitachi Deskstar P7K1000 500 GB, 7200RPM XFX Radeon HD 4890 1GB GDDR5 Creative SB X-Fi XtreamGamer and with the screen BenQ 24" LCD G2412HD Also used my old raptor hdd to store the OS on, so that one is not included in the price. Ordered this just after xmas 2009 so the computer is almost 3 years old, I have also got few extra hdd's and upgraded the RAM while I had it. I also just check the actual price I got it a bit wrong, it is 1550 USD (with today's exchange rate though). This is obliviously bad spec's for today's standards and I need to get my self a new computer rather soon, with that said I really can't understand how the fuck you can get a _good_ (as in will run any current game on highest settings) computer for 600 USD.

    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    I custom built my computer... I know what the fuck I'm doing and I would never ever in my life buy a laptop to use for gaming.

    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    I wonder what you consider a "good" computer? You don't get much more than the worst piece of crap on the market for 600 USD.... I spent maybe 1700-2000 USD (roughly do not know what the exchange rate was at the time) on my current computer (including monitor) and it wasn't even high end when it was new, would easily have to spend the double for a really good one.

    my "DayZ is AWESOME" tribute! (compilation)

    If it was me you was chasing like that I would have killed you 10 times over >.< why are you sprinting everywhere and why are you always standing till in the open looking around? Please at least hide behind trees and stuff have some tactical awareness. The movie it self was decent though but not the game play :P

    DayZ Fan-made Trailer

    Wow, really impressed very nice video! :)
  10. I had the same thing today BUT I just relogged (cause of some desync problems) and then I spawned on the coast but my friend who did the same thing spawned in the same place. What is even more weird is that we played on 1.7.2.4 :S

    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    yeah or not.... VAC is far from a good anti-cheat...
  12. Hum I'm gonna try that
  13. Tried the build out went to NWAF and I got the graphic glitch at 2 places from very far away, not sure if it was caused barbedwire or not though. Also when I spwned in I had 0 humanity and the bandit hood and I couldn't see my bag on the back (only visual and I guess that is because the real skin covers it?). Then when I was running around I all of a sudden got into first person view and swapped to pistol (I didn't command this) and when I zoomed out to third person again the bandit hood was gone, I still had 0 humanity though.
  14. And you think that a potato console is gonna be able to run the game? Really? Get real and get a new computer I mean seriously that shit must be very old if you can't run arma 2/3... my computer is almost 3 yeas old (really the maximum age if you want at least a decent experience) and wasn't even a high end build at the time and I can run that shit. Also I don't care if we loose a lot of scrubs will make a better gaming experience for all of us :).

    I'm a guy and I would play as a girl if it wasn't for the fact that they can't wear ghillie's :(

    Hacking, an analysis

    Bohemia Interactive will never remove the possibility for scrips within arma. Arma is a game for the military (use as a training tool) and the scripts are a feature for just this kind of use. Then dayz would not exist without the scripts, dayz is essentially base on the same scripts that are used as cheats. That type of scripts will get remove in the standalone and I'm confident that this will fix a lot of issues with the hackers. @OP, Did you ever play counter strike during that games golden age? I would say there were far more cheaters in that game. I'm not only talking about the public games but also all the PCW's, the friendly online tournaments and even LAN tournaments that where you competed for big amounts of cash prices. Yes there where a few people getting caught using cheats at these events. Today you have sites that are running ladders and tournaments for CS, and many of the use the anti-cheat program EAC (Easy Anti Cheat). Not only does it look for stuff that is changing the game it self but it is also taking print screens of your screen and upload them to a web server. And it uses the ingame record function and post that video online aswell for anyone to download and look at. Basically if you meet someone that you think are cheating you can look at prints and a rec but even with this rather crazy stuff people keep using cheats that can bypass all of that shit (fake the screens etc). Conclusion is that it is literally impossible to stop ALL hackers but when the standalone is realised there will be way less amount of hackers. So best thing to do now is not care to much, you will loose all your gear etc soon enough anyway.

  18. It is really sad that you died to a hacker, but with that said the story seems pretty amazing till you look at the thread title.... Tell me what is the challenge in playing on low pop servers? That makes all that raiding pretty easy and really nothing special at all.

    noise correction.

    I like the idea but I would say that it should depend if the zombies are in line of site or not, basically zombies that can see you when you fire will attack and zombies behind things will just run in that general direction.

    dayz on consols such as xbox and ps3

    Actually he was before he made this mod :P 1. Don't post shit like this when there is at least 1000 other threads with the same topic. 2. Get yourself a PROPPER computer, why on earth would you buy a MAC if you have the intention of playing games on it? 3. Throw that shit console in the nearest river 4. ?????? 5. Profit!
  21. Ofc :) and nice to see some friendly people out there between all dem bandits. Loot spawns is not the same thing though, I dropped a m249 (is that right?) with 5 mags beside my friend and took a just swim over to the heli island. When I got back the weapon had disappeared. I have also seen a M16A1 just disappear in front of my eyes when inside a building, that was a rather sad moment :(.
  22. I was playing on some server today with a friend and all of a sudden we both die from like nothing, if I remember correctly there was some more names down at the left corner. 1 second after I died I got kicked by battle eye for script restriction #162 (I think), was a rather odd experience :S. Oh and the server keep spamming the same message about all other players on the server as well.

    This have been suggested before but it is a decent idea.
