  1. Sure there is a fix. I also noticed this shit. I just updated the DayZ Commander client in Version. Then it works
  2. A kayak or canoe is an ideal survival prep, especially if you live near the coast. As a supplement to bicycles which are fuel free and super-awesome to ride in a zombie situation, it would also be great to have kayaks or canoes. Rowboats should be just sitting there on the piers. These sorts of cheap vehicles should be highly available imo i included a few pictures from row-ables in arma cold crisis, which could possibly be converted although i understand there is no animation for the long canoe shown.

    canoe/kayak/row boat

    I would hope fuel-less vehicles can become save-free.. it makes sense. must be much more of them also. it turns out there is also animations for the long canoe. they are OFP originals but theres a guy on a forum saying that it could be ported easily to cwc http://ofp.gamepark.cz/index.php?showthis=9905
  4. There should be heaps of bikes and you shouldnt be able to save them at all
  5. Please, dont think that your PC performance running that console tripe BF3 means anything. Your computer must SUCK if you have problems and thats that. I play on a laptop and it's freaking sweet. A laptop ffs.. so your computer must SUCK. answer? get a better one

    Falling damage, very unrealistic!

    I have had that exact barn problem before, it was just a couple of steps but gave me a broken leg. However I did that more recently and it didnt happen. The player was stuck for a second but then could move again. I tried again. Didnt break again. So maybe they have already made an alteration in fall damage to a very small drop like that (its like 1 ft). But 1ft is different to dropping upto 2 meters and ROLLING bro.. come on. thats not something you should try in a survival situation so why ask for it i like that theorising about jump by Urishi above; being a long slow one.. if at all. the day that it is tempting to just randomly jump as you run along is the day its not a milsim anymore. but that wont happen
  7. Yours is a good post. But the static nature and hoarding of the vehicles actually makes sense in a post apoclyptic sense. I think the solution for the majority of the playerbase however lies in easily available fast respawning SHIT vehicles i.e. bicycles and also KAYAKs.. kayaks would be fucking sweet for non-server owning proletariat to meet up with friends on the coast without any bs from the zeds along the way and getting sniped from a dude in a shiny pickup truck up a hill with his pro buddies. same for bikes ya know. they should be everywhere. they should spawn over and over. it needs doing imo.

    Falling damage, very unrealistic!

    "crouch-n-roll" after falling 2 meters onto uneven ground carrying a rifle, vest with ammo and a backpack almost your own weight and tell me you are ok

    What is my purpose?

    Good post OP. Just because there arent MONSTER KILLS, unlocks, marked objectives and so on the sheep are lost. i dont understand these so called AAA games; isnt playing them kind of like working? why would anyone want to do that? there are millions of people who spend their own day just grinding and grinding away on metro in bf3.. getting all the same unlocks for weapons that are precisely similar anyway.. you dont see these ppl asking what the endgame is or what to do now.. they are happy to just keep hammering away at it like lemmings, because they know that is their task

    fall 2 meters onto uneven ground carrying a rifle, vest with ammo and a backpack almost your own weight and tell me you are ok this system forces you to take your time most importantly. i hope they dont change fall damage at all
  11. "It is not realistic for the night to be as dark as it is. The human eye takes 20-30 minutes to become fully adjusted to complete darkness. The level of darkness in game is ridiculous." You sound like a city boy. You have no idea what kind of darkness I mean and have experienced much of. basically it's the kind of darkness that's in this milsim, which was created with the help of military consultants "And the fact that you admit willingly that you only play on day servers really makes you sound foolish to begin with...why am I even replying to you..." why does it make me foolish? i dont have NV so i dont play night servers. i sure dont "server hop" to get there tho, since i started on a day server lol. like everyone else i imagine..wtf. you either set out to join a day or a night server, unless you are a dooch who cant work out the filter. you are just poorly informed and raging. calm down. either the map needs more NV or needs a shorter moon cycle if anything etc. you just choose your words poorly man, not sure what you are trying to achieve here. personally as soon as i get some NV (yet to find one) i will be joining a (busy) night server and i hope that shits pitch black lol
  12. well jay since a long time you can set the day month and weather of any scenario in OPF/arma. so it's not a "limitation" of the arma engine. it's a feature and a realistic one and you are just approching the subject in an irritating fashion like that. also it's netiher good or bad that someone changes server for day time - it's just not server hopping - a term applied to collecting loot or avoiding being killed. Furthermore - who seriously ever had to disconnect from a server because it went from day to night time? Maybe one or twice a few people? Me, never. I always just join day servers. wtf.. so there is little to no server changing due to day turning to night anyhow. some servers are pitch black and others moon lit. i am not sure if a server owner can set those details. sure it would be better if it was always moonlit as a tradeoff for not having NVG in every building (which is equally as immersion killing as a permanent full moon perhaps.) but understand that when you are in a pitch black server and can literally see nothing - this is precisely realistic in a low moon cloudy environment far from artificial light..you cant tell if your eyes are open or closed. so its not a limitation of the engine either - arma can do different types of night you should probably stop saying you can not find night servers with ppl on tho, as it just makes you look pretty clueless. are you upto date version wise?

    New laptop. Any advice?

    Elvibi I looked at them and the first one Asus G74SX.. I have the same processor (Intel® Core™ i7 2630QM) and almost gfx; NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 560M (well mine is GT 540M) This game runs at 30-35FPS on No AA, 1160x?res, V high text/obj/terrain It looks good. Plays good. I think that will be enough. I worried because the processor is 2Ghz but its i7 maybe that makes the difference. It also "boosts" to 2.8 or can be OCd to 3. Here are the values for OC that processor; http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware-m18x/599225-help-overclock-intel-core-i7-2630qm-3.html I have not OC the gfx yet but do have the driver for that. it just hasnt been necessary as the gaming is ok without
  14. Why do people have to be made to want to play night? If they didnt have NV, even a short night time would be impossible and still lead to disconnects. And what the hell would a shorter one be? 6 hours? 3 hours? People will still have the problem you have; no NV and join a day time server. Do you mean a 1 hour night time? Still the same problem? Also that would mean a one hour day time? Realism would be killed totally. How would weather cycles fit into this btw? The complex realism of the healing system is no reasoning for changing this - which wont happen anyway so this is a pointless discussion generally. Server hop? You mean, change server because its night time... That's not server hopping for loot. It's changing server so you can play in the day. Poor logic. Afraid not there are night servers with players on, that's just a fact anyone can see with or without NV :) You seem to be full of plenty of shit though, just generally. You are mad because you don't know how to use a Day time only server setting and try to reason this awesome part of the sandbox experience should be made much shorter even tho the same issue would exist. If anything the map just needs more NV.
  15. Be reminded? By who? The BF/COD proletariat? We have surely lots to learn from them. Realism should directly deduct from "gameplay" and be realistic. That's what the audience who buy this kind of product want. I find that night servers have about 10 or so ppl on normally. I also don't play them because I am lucky to survive long enough to get an AK nevermind NV goggles. But there's no reason to come on here and slate the awesome real-time system in Arma. Some people actually seem to be enjoying it anyway so let em i say It beats a chucking med packs over and and over at people who just stand there holding down fire? It beats dropping to the ground and zapping someone with paddles who just got shot, then getting back up all within 1 second? It's relatively realistic, so it is therefore realistic. There are multiple kinds of injury and multiple kinds of treatment - the complexity is the realism. The patience required is the realism. Edit: If you are just getting mad every time a character eventually loads and it is on a server at night time i can understand that is annoying. You should use DayZ Commander, which has a Day Time only server setting. No more griefs..

    Killed by furniture and a doorframe.

    I havent died from a door or furniture. I also dont break my legs going down stairs. Try to move around in this game as you would in RL as an adult and you wont have a problem. jump on the furniture running around, opening doors with your face plastered up against it whilst running forward for example is full retard. get what deserved

    Law to Lawless Lands

    Tho I wish the game could cater to groups like this, like an online version of Fallout, unfortunately it does not. How the hell can you judge, from server to server, who is good and bad? From a distance or even from close up? How will you help ppl? Let's say you hear gunfire in a town. You head there and see 2 ppl firing at eachother.. How do you know who started that? If you open fire on the guy with the alice and sniper rifle and kill him you might only just be done patting yourselves on teh back for that when you get shot through the skull by the man you saved

    Fix this deathmatch junk

    Basically if you own a server or are in a clan who owns a server, hoarding of vehicles/best weapons is extremely easy and you can use the latter on other servers, tooling up, and not facing any serious consequences when dead since you can go back to ur server and tool up again (after ur bro picks your ass up in a helicopter from the coast.) Meanwhile for the vast vast majority of players the game is like this -- > Run, Loot shitty stuff, Run, Die, Repeat. All operations are inherently risky, even the operations of getting shitty loot and trying to run out the area immediately to the forest. Have to be honest that even I am starting to tire of running expressly up and down the coast to meet friends.. theres no vehicles of course. It's working as the game intended because i am frustrated with it i guess
  19. Very good question. I have been mass transported once and planned to alt f4 immediately the next time to avoid being nailed by other transportees and be able to walk out on another server. Now I suppose there is nothing to be done for it. And all for what - the Average Lifespan data?
  20. Just because rocket says its Alpha doesn't make it so. i'm not the first to say it, but this obviously isn't an alpha.. that's a total misnomer. it's an open beta/finished mod that will continue to be updated, fact. not an ALPHA. N.O.T. A.L.P.H.A. I just pulled this from wiki for you: Alpha testing Alpha testing is simulated or actual operational testing by potential users/customers or an independent test team at the developers' site. Alpha testing is often employed for off-the-shelf software as a form of internal acceptance testing, before the software goes to beta testing.[34] So to summerise: Are you playing DayZ on site, i.e. at Bohemia Interactive Studios? Is it an internal test? No? No? Is it before beta testing? No, we are in it. gg
  21. i only play no plates and no crosshair servers firstly with plates you can accidently spot an enemy over a 1000 yards away just as you are running along, as your cursor passes by chance over that pixel.. secondly for immersion. crosshairs are just phail. ironsights ftw
  22. Quoted for truth. Waa waa, its too hard, too many keys, where am i going, waaa waaa, i cant figure out the patches, the guns are unrealistic i cant machine gun people WTF omg waaaa waaaa the game runs too slow waaa waaa STOP trying to fit into a gaming engine which is above your threshold and not designed for your breed
  23. I call bullshit on this being an Arma change. It's DayZ. Of course the easiest thing of all to change is the stats of weapons. It's a few changes of numbers in a textfile don't you know. It's a DayZ thing. If they dont roll it back i for one am getting the fuck outta here
  24. OP you are the wrong kind of person for this game. It's just simple. You don't get it. So uninstall and go back to your ultra fake ass cod gaming.
  25. As soon as its confirmed this game goes the GAMEPLAY direction I will quit it immediately. All the firearms should stick with their well judged Arma stats which reflect real life. This is a realistic zombie sim. If the guns get weak and get evened out, for the pleasure of the unknown COD masses, I repeat I will quit this shit fast
