thinking of buying a gaming pc and need advice
grandclerical replied to resistence1993's topic in Technology/Programming
Celsius or Fahrenheit my friend? Factory OC or your own personal clocking on the card? Maybe that is a good case for airflow, most of my experience/what i've heard about the corsiar full towers like the 800D and such. My Corsiar 600T with i7 2600k standard clock and factory OC 6970 run hot lol. Only a mid tower case but its insanely big for a mid if you've ever seen one you'd back me up on it. 6970 is a hot card in general really so my 85 under battlefield on ultra at 1920x1200 res is normal. The Cpu has a real bad cooler on it and looking back i should have bought a self contained water cooler instead of the high mount noctua cooler i got to clear my ultra handy high heatsinked corsiar ram :P hits 50-52 on cool days but hot aussie days in summer, 60 degrees here we come. Got a mate who works PC's for a living and they just wouldn't have a full tower unless they were water cooling (which he is) Then you have my Mates 600T (same case as mine) better cooler that the CPU never gets above 50 and his Msi 580 lightning edition at battlefield loads never gets hotter than 55 degrees, and his PC is whisper quiet. All of this is Celsius of course. The other thing about it is why do you need a full tower really, my mid is bulky/ heavy enough as it is. -

While I don't doubt you AT all on that being true, the person that you were replying too was mentioning the fact that the OP wants a PC that will last the next couple years games on the highest settings as well. Need to spend more if you want that long term lasting of a gaming rig -

Full tower cases are really only good for if your water cooling the PC. TERRIBLE airflow in full tower cases. -
They are doing their best to realise patches to make the game better, guess what.... THIS IS AN ALPHA TEST STAGE SO YES! YOU ARE HERE TO TEST SHIT. Why don't some people understand alpha stage and beta stages?

Was just playing and was heading for a deer stand near a town when omg no! Shots rang out and I copped a couple hits as I scramble up the tower to try for safety. I go prone as soon as I can as soon as possible as bullets impact the tower. Strapping myself with a bandage I type friendly, unarmed into chat. Shots continue to rain into the side of the tower. The only weapon I had that he would have seen is my hatchet, I had an Winchester in my pack but hadn't been fortunate to find any ammo. I hunkered down into the corner of the deer stand as he strode around the tower trying to get a hit on me. At this stage I reach over to my bed head and remove my headset that is slung over the bar, quickly I plugged it in and put it on. I hold down the button to communicate. "Friendly cease fire, I only have a hatchet no weaponry other than that (he should have seen that as I ran for/climbed the tower) My call out was in vain as more bullet's hailed against the side of the tower, by this stage I hoped I was frustrating him at the amount of ammo being required. "friendly, friendly, cease fire I will share some goods with you in swap for my life" I paused then unsure what he might want. "I have a water bottle I can share and possibly some food, I'm friendly cease fire" After that he got the inevitable head shot on me, finishing me for the first death by player i've experienced since I started playing (not long mind you) Is this thread a complaint? Absolutely not. Do I love the fact that this game just installed genuine panic and fear within me while I cowered for my life, unarmed and backed into a corner. Absolutely. This game doesn't have to go the path of a cheap scare or fear instalment by way of things jumping out or suddenly running screaming at you like other zombie games. Immerse yourself in the games universe and you will fear for the life of your character at the hands of these such "people" just looking to survive in this wasteland. Loving the game but all I have to say right now is, Boy, some people sure are dicks. I apologise for any terrible spelling and bad grammar or post structure, I just wanted to share and words are not my strength. Good luck surviving, if I meet you on my travels then I look forward to speaking with you before I decide if your a threat or not. Grandclerical

His comment was generally too harsh I thought but the only other piece of advice I can give for ANY game for a manual on controls is to just hit ESC and take a look in controls. Its how I figured out how to use the torch. His comment was too harsh but for anything controls related I look in the controls menu, usually gets me what I need. Happy adventuring P.s.- flash lights are dangerous to use at night, says to anyone near by, HEY look over here and this strange light source. :) good luck mate Edit- didn't see that you said you knew about the buttons already so I'm sorry :P I probley come across as a dick but it isn't what I ment. unsure of what the issue is then as I used my torch once on a night server and it lit up fine. sorry I cant be of more help than that :P

I really love your story and the way that you see the game, It's a bleak world out there but if I got to hang out with someone like you then I think id enjoy discovering all these things with you in-game. You've seen more/different things then I have but we have something in common, we love this game. My only thing I don't like about it is that I don't want to just play for 30 minutes even if I have the time. I feel like I need 1+ hours to immerse myself :) Happy adventures and survive well my friend
-
Exactly what I was thinking :P
-
D'Cing is a dick move, ive only done it once and that was cause i stopped playing immediately because a hacker picked everyone on the server up and dropped us. I got frustrated and logged out to play another time, when I got back on the next day the hourglass wound down and I got back up. Had no idea that would happen and I was like opps didn't mean to do that. I'm not 100% sure where the final hit came from, I didn't happen to see it but he used alot of ammo to find it :P
-
Where does it say i was crying? I was simply sharing a story. learn to read son.
-
Haha I would have kept running but I happened to be at the bottom of the dear stands ladder, thought maybe I could talk to this guy. alas I could not. So be the way of DayZ. oh well better luck next time :P

Lost in the woods! Help?
grandclerical replied to Marcellus Wallace's topic in New Player Discussion
I believe if you press ESC and then hit respawn in that menu, it will kill you. Then you can follow the way through the menu's to respawn and you will respawn fresh. -
You say I would have done so, but you say it not knowing who I am/what I'm like. I really enjoyed your story and I feel sorry for the person who lost his life while helping, such is the way that things go. Had I known he was there? I would have hidden in a bush near him and tried to talk with him. Never did I say all people are dicks, the title clearly says some people are dicks. Maybe some day you and I will team up in game, and do the right thing by others because its a bleak environment if no one is nice. (EDIT)- I commend your actions for doing the least that you could do, being exacting revenge on the person who wiped out someone who couldn't have deserved it less at that point.

Hehe, Yeah I understand this but he was defiantly close enough to hear me. I could see him moving around really close to the tower from the small opening where the ladder goes up. Would have been the same distance if not less than the other night when my friend and I were on top of the Balota airfield tower roof due to hearing another player and getting scared so we climbed up there away from zombies. He was down on the ground probably 10 metres from the tower and we could hear him talking and his D & B music over the mic lol. After us telling him we are armed but friendly (myself with an axe and my friend with a pistol) we found out that he was unarmed, we killed the zombies and preceded to have an excellent adventure with him collecting weapons and the like. So judging by that, he was definitely close enough to hear me talking in my mic. Good point though

In your situation then your movements were justified, had he not reached into his pack then you could have left him be, covering your own backs on the way out. He made a bad move at the wrong time. Feel bad but at the same time realise that you didn't put 2 in his chest and one in the forehead at first chance, you made the effort of contact but ultimately had to protect yourself. Its the situation we are all stuck in. It's a wasteland hell, but its our (characters) reality.
-
In no way has it put me off playing, I understand from your and the player who killed me's point of view and I'm just saying that I did my best to communicate with this person, as I would do with you. Maybe if he had made an attempt to communicate with me through text/voice while I was backed into a corner then it would have turned out differently/more fun for the both of us. I only hope that you haven't been so scorned by people within this game that you still wouldn't even try that small basic amount of effort to communicate with someone backed into a corner.

The best thing to do is only try at the beginning to play with people you know, Unfortunately no one is trustworthy in this game. If it wasn't so late here I would join you, but its a bit late for me tonight sorry mate :(
