Best update yet? :D

When I first started playing pretty much every server was on it's local timezone. It used to be either play in the dark or with a huge ping at night time and TBH I thought that was much better. Why not just make all servers use their local timezone?

Mate, every time I see your avatar there's something retarded next to it. Go home.

For me either dumping stuff on the floor or using a tent/vehicle is fine. I don't see the issue. :S The only thing I would like is for dropping items from your backpack to be easier. Hate the way you 'drop' something and it tries to go in to your main inventory, lol.

The loot system is getting an overhaul for the standalone. I'm hoping for something like this. Vehicles should sometimes spawn with some random items in them too.

If you need to lower your graphics via config in L4D2 then I don't think you're gonna have much luck with ArmA II mate. My laptop runs L4D2 maxed out with 90 FPS and even stock ArmA is unplayable, lol.

The fact that you don't have a mic will put a lot of people off, typing in direct comms the whole time is a one way ticket to an early grave, lol. I'd think about getting yourself a headset if I were you. You can pick up a decent one that will give you a good few years of use for

Do we get killstreaks too?

Having a weapon isn't actually THAT important mate. You want to be running away from zombies instead of killing them most of the time, shooting them will just attract more. Your best bet is drawing them in to a building and then leaving through the back door. Failing that run in to a bush or pine tree and they'll lose interest pretty quickly. It is advisable to carry a weapon in case you run in to players though, you'll find military weapons in Cherno or Elektro firehouses or Balota airstrip. I wouldn't head to Stary just yet.

Trading should stay as is - meet people and trade with them. There shouldn't be some magical third party handling the transaction. If you get screwed over then you get screwed over, your own fault for trying to trade with people in a post-apocalyptic society where rule #1 is trust no one, lol. Such is life...

DayZ is currently a mod, meaning you need ArmA II: Combined Operations to play it. But other than that - yes, it's open and free. Just download and install it.

Stop running around with 9k blood then?

This is a nice idea but would be horrible in reality. Griefer heaven. And a 2 week lockout is insane! 24 hours max. xD

No, ArmA II's all about the CPU. I can't really see two 560 Ti's running the game a whole lot better than one.

Frame rate in cities? You can expect as little as half your usual performance, that's normal.

This. Rocket already said he isn't taking any money until the game is ready.

If someone runs in to the room that I'm in, armed and without warning then I'll kill them, or at least knock them out, bandage them and run away. Sucks but it's the only way to survive these DayZ... If I see them approaching I'll call out and ask if they're friendly, if they don't reply I'll type it, if they still don't reply I'll pop 'em. If they do reply I'll ask them to switch to a handgun or flashlight and tell them that I'm not looking to team up but I won't hurt them and ask if they need anything (food/drink/meds, assuming I'm geared myself). If I see someone near me but not coming towards me I'll just watch them to make sure they don't get the drop on me and allow them to go about their day. I prefer not to team up with randoms I meet in game, can't trust them and a lot of them make really bad decisions and get themselves killed while I watch in horror... xD

Maybe you're cursed. I suffer from the curse of the coyote backpack. Every time I find one something horrible and usually completely inexplicable happens...

The dogs update probably isn't going to happen. The devs are too busy with DayZ standalone and I'd rather have that anyway. I'm fully burned out on the mod, don't really play any more.

1) This makes absolutely no sense. Why would a gun only be found on one side of the map? 2) If they're all the same but look slightly different then really, what's the point?

I prefer dayzmap.info, I just use the DayZDB one for vehicle spawns. I have both open in the Steam in-game browser most of the time anyway, lol.

I really don't understand where this 'there are only Russian-made weapons in Russia' idea comes from. Especially when the the Enfield spawns in residential areas... :S As for the bayonet, I'd rather have an attachable scope.

It's pretty much inevitable when talking about using a controller in a game made to be played with a mouse and keyboard, lol. And we're keeping it civilised so I really don't see the problem... If you want help you might want to elaborate on your problem a little more BTW. 'Can't get it to work' is a bit vague...

Well there are a lot of ill-informed people out there, so I wouldn't be surprised, lol... But the vast majority of people I've seen talking about things like 'auto-aim' type in broken English so I always assumed they were foreign and the language wasn't their strong point. Maybe they're just retarded though, who knows. You haven't played with good rushers then. xD In arcadey shooters like the old CoD games, CS, Quake etc. a good player shouldn't have to spray. The engines are tight enough that you can develop insanely twitchey aim if you play a lot. I still get accused of hacking every time I have a good game and I don even play much these days, lol. The 'aim-assist' setting in the Xbox options just sets your default preferences in games, and in CoD the option only affects the singleplayer campaign. You know that crazy aimbot style aim-assist where it locks on to enemies when you pull the trigger. I don't think it does anything at all in multiplayer.

'One fucking shot!'? What about the 50 you missed, lmao. Sick aim mate...
