  1. Depends on the situation. Killing zombies, especially with a rifle, can draw a lot of attention. I prefer to use a hatchet or just run away from them.
  2. Either draw them in to a building and run away or draw them in to a building and swap to a mellee weapon to deal with them. Moving around with anything other than a rifle equipped isn't smart unless you're hoping whoever you run in to won't attack you as you're unable to defend yourself.
  3. Oh, nice. Didn't know that. I took a break before 1.7.6 and have only been back on in the past couple of days. I'll have to get myself a crowbar then! Has the damage been buffed or is it still a bit 'meh' compared to the hatchet?
  4. Moved to Ban Appeals. Hopefully an admin from the server will see you're topic and you can talk to them about it. Good luck.

    Not played dayz, and i love it!

    The new specs will handle DayZ fine. If you have any more questions please use the Can I Run It? thread which you can find here... http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/64576-can-i-run-it-ask-here/page__st__4680 Normally I'd just merge the threads but there are too many posts and it would make everything out of place and confusing, sorry! Locked. ARMA 2 only uses 2Gb RAM regardless of how much you have, lol. It's more about quality of RAM here.
  6. I'd go with part of the build up or main section for the intro and then more of a decrescendo/end of main section type thing for the outro.
  7. I like the 28 Days Later one better.

    The Bandit Recon Skin

    I'll be burned at the stake for saying this but I prefer the new one...
  9. The zombie bush bug pretty much killed the game for me, I've given it up completely and it's made the mod enjoyable for me again, lol. Yup, hatcheting in DayZ is an art form. I've got to the point where i'm profficient with a hatchet in 3rd person without crosshairs now. xD
  10. It worked! 1) Someone actually gave me a set of camo clothing. 2) It actually fixed my skin! ;D
  11. 1) Lead zombies indoors. 2) Drop primary and bust out hatchet. 3) Keep swinging as the zombies walk towards you. 4) ????? 5) Profit. Killed 150 zombies yesterday without firing a shot and didn't lose much blood at all, lol.
  12. I'm no expert but PHPs are script files so it would make sense that they could be used to perform simple tasks like retrieving keys from a set location and forwarding them to someone.

    Regarding Optimization

    Haha, no problem!

    Regarding Optimization

    With $400 you'd probably be able to get youself a decent i5 and an ASUS mobo for it. You would be bottlenecked by the GPU but I doubt you were planning on hanging on to that card forever? I'd just make that the next componant on the upgrade list, lol.
  15. Yeah, that and 'I want to slip in and out of your ghillie' sounds a bit...

    Regarding Optimization

    Trying to convince mummy dearest to give me a large chunk of cash towards the GTX Titan for my birthday. xD Failing that I'll probably go with a 680 though, they're great GPUs. They pack a lot of punch and in a year or so when it starts to struggle the price will have dropped and you'll be able to just chuck another one in there and run them in SLi instead of breaking your bank over another new top-tier card. That's my plan anyway... Well the problem that you're gonna have is that you'll need a new motherboard too which is obviously gonna cost you a bit more. Honestly, I'd sit tight and save up til you can afford something like an i5 3750k with a decent motherboard. Maybe a bit of tweaking can get the game running a bit better in the mean time... Have you made any changes to your config at all? And are you using any startup parameters when you load the game at present?
  17. I'm not sure what happened... Had a bandit kill and 2 murders after a rough night at the airfield, the next time I logged in my kill stats and humanity all reset to 0 and my skin refuses to change. I'm hoping that either finding a ghillie or camo and changing in and out of it might reset my skin but obviously, now that I want them I can't find them... :(
  18. Notice the humanity. ^^ My stats bugged and I'm stuck in a bandit skin, lol.

    Regarding Optimization

    That's BS. I don't trust their CPU's but for power:price AMD GPUs are the way to go. If you're looking for pure power and price isn't an issue however, then I would go with a top-tier Nvidia card.

    Regarding Optimization

    I've got a 6970 OC and I'm running max settings just fine, thankyouverymuch. ARMA isn't so keen on the AMD CPUs though, that's undeniable.
  21. Mos1ey

    Regarding Optimization

    Aren't those FX-4100s dual-cores with 2 logical cores per physical? That and the fact that your GPU is a bit weak are the source of your problems in ARMA 2.
  22. Mos1ey

    Regarding Optimization

    It's pretty much the same. It's optimised a bit better, but the graphical fidelity has been ramped up too.

    Install ArmA II + OA for DayZ?

    You NEED ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead. The map (Chernarus) is from ARMA 2 so you can get away with using ARMA 2: Free and ARMA 2: OA but you'll have crappy, low resolution textures. If you buy ARMA 2 you will have high resolution map textures and audio quality. If you buy the PMC DLC you will have high resolution survivor skins. If you buy the BAF DLC you will have the high resolution gillie suit and came clothing. Hope this helps. :)

    DayZ Screenshots!

    After a bit more tweaking I finally got ARMA 2 to run at a point where I can crank my settings right up. ;D Playing in 1920x1080 with everything maxed and PPE disabled, turned it on for a bit of extra eye candy for a couple of screenies though... That would be the edge of the map. xD
