Well it looks like any position for white knight that rocket may have had available has been filled.

A moment or two of fiddling with the memory size option clears them up a treat for me.

I think there are going to be a lot of disappointed people when the standalone releases and it's exactly what the title suggests, a standalone release of the current mod. Where everybody has got this idea of a second coming of christ like, entirely new game with entirely new engine from I have no idea.

Randomly spawned clues as to the cause of the infection and ongoing stories of non player characters could easily be scattered completely randomly around the world. It might even promote more conversation and less killing everyone in sight too if you could hunker down round a campfire and share these snippets of info with other players.

Sandbox gaming isn't for you. You should be looking for Call of Battlefield duty 9.

...I'm pretty sure that's not movie or videogame logic, taking a high velocity, large caliber round to the face isn't just gonna leave a scratch.

Not with the amount I keep finding on choppers it isn't.

If it's taking a few minutes I back out and find a server that doesn't take a few minutes to load.

Bandits in ghillie suits should have lovely bouquets of flowers growing out of their heads.

There's something deliciously annoying but also hilarious about stomping round the wilderness with a Coyote backpack, ghillie suit, sniper rifle + assault rifle + pistol, full medical supplies, and still jonesing for soda and beans because the loot gods haven't delivered you matches or any water bottles.

While the point is being made in a ridiculous way, it still does stand. Common sense would have dictated releasing a hotfix ASAP so people can actually play the game take precedence over adding dogs.

I need an option for "hammer the voice comms key and scream like a girl while running in the opposite direction".

Because the people paying €20 for their game are in countries with much higher taxes and various other charges than those who are paying $20.

I'm not sure what the nativity has to do with it.

Apparently you're failing to see the other 90% of DayZ players who haven't even registered on the forum.

I found some AS50 bullets I don't need, log on in an area of my choice with lots of surrounding cover and you can have them one by one.

I'm not entirely sure where this idea comes from. If the standalone release uses an existing game engine, there will be 0day hacks. If it uses a newly created engine, hacks will appear within the first week.

I've never personally seen oxygen, yet I'm still alive.

I'm pretty sure the problem is that many people suffering from game breaking graphical artifacting issues were waiting on said hotfix that was estimated to be out already. Then rocket already announced on the Machinima live stream that he had fixed the graphical artifacting issues but the hotfix was being delayed regardless.

I fiddled about changing the memory size option a few times tonight and managed to get rid of the artifacting of death at least.

Probably not the best example, the Bloodlines early build Source engine was in such a terrible state it makes Arma 2s engine look like poetry in motion.

I had zombies come roaming round me while laid out in a bush way outside range of a barn earlier, scared the crap out of me when I tabbed back in.

I'm still using my shortcut from beta, the official 1.62 release didn't remove the beta patch.

It didn't do anything to mine. I get the feeling a lot of people are experiencing shortcut startup issues.
