I agree. I think this would feel more authentic, although I don't really have a problem with the way aggro works at the minute.

Please edit your previous post instead of double-posting in future. Thanks!

I agree with the OP but as nothing's final yet I think we need to wait and see how much they improve before the alpha before making these suggestions. Also, the new player animations are great but they look a bit clunky because you instantly go from standing still in to full walking pace or into a full sprint. There needs to be a different animation for the first few steps between standing, walking and running to smooth everything out, but again we need to wait and see what they're like in the alpha build.

Unfortunately, he's right. You'll need a whole new machine if you plan on playing hardware intensive games like the ARMA series.

Was it a backpack with the ability to store weapons? If the backpack doesn't have weapon slots then the weapon will just disappear.

Can you post the full quote please? To me that sounds like he means that they've chosen the week that they plan to release in, but it's easy to misinterpret out of context quotes.

I figured this stuff was all subject to change. I don't think the jumping lunge thing will be their only attack. I agree it did look weird in the E3 video when they were all jumping though, lol.

A pistol round to the head usually does the job for me. Failing that you could always throw empty cans at him.

Can you give a brief run through of your current graphics settings please? Also have you made any changes to the stock arma2oa.cfg and are you using any startup parameters?

The slightly-more-open-closed-alpha-testing hasn't started yet, there's still a little bit more waiting to do. Sorry! It's more of a 'when it's ready' than a 'when will maximise sales' at this point. Also, last I heard the price was going to be around 18 GBP, but that was a long time ago now.

You'll just about scrape by on 'very low/low' settings. It would run on 'normal' settings if you put a dedicated graphics card (would recommend GTX 560Ti or better) in there.

Yeah, you get the high res ghillie, camo, survivor, hero and a few weapons with the DLCs. If you don't mind paying the extra money and think you might play the campaigns then they're definitely worth picking up in the sale. Here are some comparison shots... I'd run them once each just to to make sure that they load into the OA directory, but I think they actually do it automatically.

I loot and then hide everyone's body. Hue.

Well the 560Ti is a bit average. Your CPU and RAM (assuming it's 1333mhz or faster, which it probably is) would be fine for 'high' settings but you need something a bit more powerful GPU-wise (580 or better, really) to run with decent FPS and you'd need a (preferably OC'd) ivy bridge with a really good graphics card to run on very high/max settings. ARMA 2 and DayZ mod are super hardware intensive and with BiS being the small indie dev team that they are, the optimisation could be better, so you need pretty good hardware. I'm currently playing on an i5 3570k @ 4.4Ghz with a Gigabyte HD 6970 OC 2Gb and that gets me by with 40-60 FPS on 'high' settings with a few things bumped up to 'very high'. Upgrading to a GTX 780 next month and then my system will be good enough to run the mod more or less maxed out. Don't despair though, the game looks fine on 'normal' settings and actually pretty damn nice once you get up to 'high'.

As above - the problem is your graphics card. I'd upgrade to a 560Ti (or AMD equivalent) at the very least, but even then you'd still be playing on 'normal' settings, just with better FPS.

That's the original bandit skin, it replaced the 'new' one again in 1.7.7. Players with less than -2500 humanity wear the bandit skin and will keep it until they reach 0 humanity again. You passively gain 30 humanity per minute up to a maximum of +2500.

Cannibalism = game banned in Germany. I don't know that there's much need for urine drinking either when Chernarus is covered in lakes and houses/supermarkets filled with canned drinks and water canteens, lol.

How to fool half a forum into necro-posting. Locked.

There is nothing of interest in Cherno and Elektro other than the absolute basics, lol.

I don't think what you did was particularly right or wrong. He died, therefore should accept that he's lost his gear.

It's just called DayZ, have you not got it on Steam already? :S

I'm not sure if there are still any servers up because the devs abandoned it in favour of starting a new project but DayZ+ was pretty much what you describe. Weapons are definitely less common in 2017 but the zombies are pretty much the same as in stock DayZ.

Because it isn't an intended feature of DayZ. Side chat was removed a long, long time ago but it's impossible to stop private hive server owners from turning it back on again.

Indeed, I would delete your @DayZ folder and install again with DayZ Commander. 1.62 is your ARMA 2 beta version, you can also update that easily with DayZ Commander.
