    mauser pistol

    I like the idea of rare handguns. It comes with a bit of friendly bragging rights and street cred. Silly, sure, but a little bit of show-n-tell between friends isn't a bad thing.

    Map stuff.

    Always a favorite in my book. Rather than some high tech gps gizmo, I'd like to see a tinkerer's radio transmitter that could be tracked with the proper gear and frequency. Might make tracking down baddies interesting and give us older gents some Red Dawn flashbacks.
  4. Most kids are more sweary than me but it's true, we shouldn't make it cool to skips school. Negative. The mod is in alpha. The standalone, which shares the concept of the mods is a completely different beast written from the ground up (edit: mostly) and not a mod of another game at all. It's in alpha as well but not publicly being tested. Hope that makes sense.
  5. I've been a tad too sweary lately. Thanks Orlok.
  6. Hire me to the P.R. I'll put one of those clever media blackout/gag order things on them and then tell them the most ridiculous shit I could make up with my feet kicked up on a folding table with a 10' x 10' painting of drunk David Hasselhoff on the wall behind me. Just match my current payrate and force the media outlets to come to my hot ass snake infested state and it's a deal.

    I keep spawning at the coast?

    We're testing it. It is your mission to test it.

    They won't. I hope you guys have your helmets strapped on tight for the trolls and slow-witted are gathering at the gates. I'm still looking for the perfect image for an 'it's an alpha' meme.

    They've been working for me since the site went back up.. I think.

    Serious FPS problems.

    K. None of that is going to help OP. Nice ads bro.

    Pitch Black have a place in the standalone? Flashlight Play?

    IF time was advanced at all.. I'd like to see at least a 2.5-3 hour night cycle. Enough time to enjoy sunset and sunrise and some nice nighttime gameplay but not enough to completely kill a server. Personally, I'd play nothing but night if NVGs and gamma wasn't an issue. It offers a much better pve experience and sunset/sunrise can be pretty gorgeous if the weather permits.

    Serious FPS problems.

    Your processor to start with. No clue on what gfx card you have. I struggled on a 2.4 dual core. You need to up that monster to get good frames. You have everything cranked down but did you turn off mouse smoothing and just your 'framesahead'? You might get slightly better frames with that but not much. Playable if you can stand it. I did for quite a while but you honestly need to upgrade.

    No, I'm always this sexy. Unless it's sexier to be confused in your culture.

    I've never been more confused....
  17. I think the only solution that offers much merit given the limited size of the map (yes, it's too small, especially for 100 players) is the use of pre-existing houses. It comes with a lot of problems though. For starters, they shouldn't be completely locked. We should be able to break into them otherwise it's awfully lame. It would only be a matter of time before a lot of the houses are blocked off and that would create a lot of problems as we've seen in the past with barbed wire spammers. Barricades would only really be effective against zombies but that's okay in my book. Stashing loot in a house could be interesting though. If items are unique in the world I don't see why we couldn't just jam a rifle behind a bookcase or something, for example, and come back for it later. It would make searching standard buildings and fortified player homes a little more interesting than mouse clicking some action icon and viewing it's inventory. You could also stash stuff and not even barricade the building to throw off nosey players. Imagine a lockbox under a house, stuffing a compass in an airvent, that type of thing. There could be a lot of clever hiding spots depending on how the interiors are designed. I think building is cool too. There's just something natural about it but I just don't see how to make it work well in the spirit of dayz.

    because only a madman would keep so many razors and toilet paper.

    ARMA 3 DAYZ VS STANDALONE

    I'm pretty sure the textures of the guns will be just as good as A3's. It's the models that are changing to increase performance, no the textures. I doubt many people will even be able to tell the difference, assuming the guns retain some basic animations. A Glock 17 will look like a Glock 17. You want survival but nothing that actually makes survival interesting? Running barefoot for your entire life and running barefoot for the first time in your life, on rocky terrain, pavement, and probably broken glass, are two entirely different things. No thanks to unlocks.
