I like the idea of trying to set some kind of context to you being on the beach all of a sudden but placing wrecks like that would only give griefers/spawncampers something to aim at while waiting.

Would it not be better if the theif makes some sort of unique animation when he checks the bag? And that the animations only stops when he stops looking in your bag. That way you can still do it to people having their volume turned up and got their backs against you. If it's a sound like when you eat food or open a can of coke it would be really easy to hear. How about you hear a subtle noise when something 5+ blocks big gets removed. But other than that you need to see the thiefs animation to know if he is trying to steal stuff.

I did acknowledge that there are flaws in the game and I get what you're saying. Bugs need fixing. The thing is that most people that complain on this forum seem to want a fundamental balance-change to how the zombies work. They want static numbers like "you should only be in risk of getting unconscious after you get below X blood". The thing is that those people only say stuff like that because they dont EXPECT passing out after being hit at 11k blood. They get mad about it and make a post. The result of this? Worst case scenario - zombies get easier to kill and avoid. Realism is not for everyone. There are other options if you dislike it. I am not telling everybody to f- off.

Scripting free? I dont think that's possible due to the arma-engine.

I dont know where you live exactly but I live far north in Scandinavia and when it turns into night time here it gets PITCH-black. Not even kidding here, you cant see your own feet. So yeah, it IS realistic.

1. Would be extremely boring. Where is the element of surprise? 2. So that you can spawn closer to your friends? That would turn this game into an ugly version of Battlefield. 3. You can survive just fine without any weapons if you play smart. You should spawn without ANYTHING. 4. You can already see this in dayz commander. 5. This is not World of Warcraft. Please dont try and turn this original game into just another crappy mmo.

I just noticed that when you look at a wirefence from a certain distance the graphics go crazy and give all sorts of weird artifacts on the screen. When I walked closer, it llooks just fine. But as soon as I am a certain distance from it it goes crazy again.

Please remove the "was killed" message along with the corpseflies & debugwindow. That way you can pretend like you died and trick your attacker. An alternative to the corpseflies is that they appear after X number of minutes after the person was killed or simply after that somebody looted the corpse. The murder- and banditkills would be shown to you when you have died. This would make the game better seeing it as it would add to the realism. There is no way for you to tell if the guy you shot got killed or not without walking up to him or her and checking the pulse.

There is no point in being insulting just because you disagree with me. I see what you mean, but all that stuff could still be logged and viewed by the server-host or hive server. You suspect cheating? You make a report or contact the server host. That way the bancannon can still be pointed and fired. Regarding the bugwindow - you could still keep the icons. You see how much blood you got from the tint on the drop. You suspect you're really low? Use a bloodbag or eat.

Just like the title says, is it safe to use Riva Tuner overlay with DayZ? I have heard that some anticheat-software can detect Riva Tuner as a cheat and potentially get you banned. I want to use it to view my cpu and gpu load along with fps.

It's good since you can still break legs, make somebody bleed or even kill with a headshot. Zombies should be something to fear, not something that's just annoying. This was a step in the right direction.

Try running the game as an administrator. It worked for me when I had microphone problems.

Been seeing some freezing too after the latest patch. I am running 95417 and 1.7.2.4. Got an i7 3770 and a ASUS Radeon 7970. 6 gb ram.

I saw this sign from the distance just outside Cherno. Observe how the arrow-sign points left when zoomed out and right when you zoom in. Zoomed in: http://i.imgur.com/aRQ7u.jpg Zoomed out: http://i.imgur.com/ZqKCD.jpg Viewed from the distance this might trick the player into going into Cherno instead of Prigorodky. Not a huge bug but I thought i'd put it out there. The sign is located here, in the 3-way crossing - http://dayzdb.com/map#6.074.120

Hello. If the "X was killed" notification gets removed from the bottom left corner I would like the sound of flies to go as well. Why? I'd like the possibility to fake my death and surprise my attacker. If there is no sound of flies and the attacker is not mentally challanged he will know that I am still alive. What if the sound of flies start ~10 minutes after death instead of instantly? This is ofc not even relevant if the notification in the bottom left corner doesnt get removed but I am assuming it will be removed eventually since this is a game about realism.

Oh crap. I meant to post it under bugs. Hopefully a mod can move it

I just want to say that this is the game that I always wanted to play but never thought would be made. You (rocket) and your staff are awesome. Best gaming-experience so far! Never give up on the realism, that's what makes it original and fun to play.

what is your server ip?

Im an idiot for not agreeing with you? Thats classic and pretty adorable. I blush.

Please, please, please dont fix this. I really like zombies actually being something to FEAR instead of something annoying that hits you while you fire away at real players. With zombies being this dangerous you really need to plan what to do. If you keep getting killed by zombies you should be more careful. Patience pays off. Try it! Once you drop your guard in this game, you die. Simple as that. It's not the games fault. It's your fault.

I stole an ATV from a guy close to Stary and a while later me and my buddy got teleported right in front of two guys with guns blazing towards us. I did alt+f4 and survived their bullshit but my buddy got killed. This happened 17:15-17:20 UTC+1 my time.

Thats the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPtmG_EN8JU His username is RussiaSovietIn.

View it in fullscreen with HD-quality. You see the script in the middle of the screen. White text on a black background.

I have run into a LOT of tents in the woods that contain lots of epic items and I mean too many to be legit. I've also seen people talking about the "bug" and how its not a cheat (because its just a bug) on other forums. So it seems pretty common that people use this in order to maintain an arsenal without really playing to get it. The alt+f4 bullshit is pretty annoying too but the duping and invisibilty ... thats really gamebreaking for me.
