Well tbh I've been trying to stay alive up north and haven't got into a fight yet so that's only part of why I like it, like I said 3rd person over the shoulder is an appealing look to me. I don't think I'm at a huge disadvantage losing a bit of extra peripheral vision. I'm also not big on the whole 3rd person around cover and with a closer FOV in 3rd it feels more immersive like 1st person but I am still aware of what my body is doing on screen. I imagine a mid-high FOV is most common and I might end up going higher in the future but for now I'm liking it closer in.

I don't think B.I are looking to tempt everyone on steam in until the game has progressed further so it wouldn't make sense to put it on sale, Rocket himself discourages people on the fence about getting Dayz until it has more to it. Also they have a pretty large and devoted crowd already that will advertise and generate interest via twitch, youtube and word of mouth besides £20 is pretty cheap imo.

Is Arma Engine not AMD processor friendly ?
melvindorf replied to [email protected]'s topic in General Discussion
Yeah I have Fx-8120 and a GTX 670 and get 35-60 in the wild and 18-30 in citys. like mudbutt says sceneComplexity will give you a better frame rate but don't go too low because objects like fences and bushes will disappear and leave you with bland textures in the near distance. Also how are guys with lower end amd processers than me reporting better fps in citys? 30 fps really? in Cherno/Berezino/Elektro constant 30 fps? I find it really hard to belive. -
I use a really low FOV, like 1/10. I prefer the zoomed in sights on my weapon and seem to get a around 5 frames more on average. I know I have to turn my head a bit more than a higher FOV but i like it and the over the shoulder 3rd person looks really good to me Low FOV=better zoom on scopes/iron sights. High FOV=better awareness of your surroundings.

I had problems with shadowplay in Dayz Epoch Mod and then again when standalone came out. It would have a red line through the icon and would also make my pc freeze when I alt tabbed out. Launching in window mode then waiting for the main menu before going full-screen seems to have solved this issue for me in the mods and now the standalone. Hope that helps :)

I don't think Mick watered down the truth, but even if he did at least he didn't lie and make false accusations like you did. Yeah ill stop coming back to the thread I started, i'm sorry how rude of me. As stupid as not knowing when a question is rhetorical or when a matter doesn't concern you? If you still feel the need to get the last word go ahead i'm done talking to you. -

Just so you know duff it was me that sent the "just play the game ffs" message. I have no idea why you got so offended because I wasn't even talking to you! Like johnny has stated before it makes no sense what so ever for you to post on here as you are no longer a member of the community. This post is a advertisement for this server, not where we discuss community matters, that is done on our forum (which you know full well as you are a member of it). The only reason you are posting hate in here is just you being spiteful because you didn't get your way, the same spite that offers a pm of the "truth" and the spite that got two of our members killed in the greenzone (not one johnny). You were trying to loot a body in cherno and some other people told you to leave, when you didn't they led some zeds your way (I am not condoning this behaver just stating facts) you then tried to shoot out a tire and ended up blowing up the car, after that you legged it rather than help the guy who was bleeding out (awesome doctor btw). After this incident I was going to outright ban you but both Ricky and Johny said you deserved another chance. Now I know Johnny has spoke on this topic but I want to just clarify that a few things you have said are outright lies; 1. KOS by admins. When have we ever killed on sight? How could you possibly know this? 2. So many restarts without notice. What that one time where I did a manual restart and my warning message didn't get displayed? Mistakes happen, get over it. We are certainly not infallible and are prone to make mistakes like anybody. 3. Reset the hive 3 times in a week. As we explained in OUR FORUM, dayz.st the guys who host are server upgraded our database to the latest version of bliss which for whatever reason wiped everything. This upset me because it was a let down for our player base (which you wasn't even a part of because you left), However its dayz shit happens you spawn on the beach and play the game again. By my count that's 1 time in a week not 3. It is such a contradiction that you tell Johnny that you didn't ask for his opinion whilst forcing yours on everyone. I suggest you go back a few pages on the forum where you said that you wasn't going to post and it was the end of the matter. Or was that another famous dr.duff "truth"? Also a massive contradiction to call most of the word ignorant, you met them all? -
Hi guys just wondering if there was a program or tool that would allow me to monitor what's happening on my server in real time. Would specificly like to see who has been killing each other to help keep our greenzone friendly. Any help would be appreciated.

Probaly gona try DarT out as an alternative to BE Rcon. I don't think it tells me who killed who though, that's what I'm realy after.

I agree that making toolboxes needed for setting up the wire would help the issue alot. Also apos respect. Wish more people would do that and next time i get a tool box ill go wire hunting. Still dont understand the mentality behind it, alot of effort just to grief.
