3 of us died from a hacker last night
Mos1ey replied to DirtyscumbagLith's topic in General Discussion
I've never seen even a shred of evidence that would suggest that anyone was unfairly banned by BE. -
*Door bell rings* GIMME 15 MINUTES! I don't think so somehow... A 30 second logout timer will be added later in development.

The fact that they ban in waves is actually a good thing. It's much more difficult to tell if the new cheat that you just made really is undetected if you won't get banned instantly when you test it. -

Mos1ey replied to DirtyscumbagLith's topic in General Discussion
If the number of tears shed in the ban appeals sub-forum is anything to judge by I'd say BE do an alright job of catching cheaters, even in the mod. -
I definitely think this should be added. It adds a much more authentic scavenging vibe when you have to rummage through useless old crap.
-
A Phenom would be better than the Athlon but they still aren't great for DayZ. Intel just perform way better for some reason.
-
IMO it should be locked at the default FOV setting.
-
Honestly, I would consider this to be an exploit. I hope they lock FOV while aimed down sights at some point as the zoom while aiming feature has been removed.
-
To be fair you blamed the game and said that you were sure it wasn't your hardware, I was just informing you that that was not correct. Anyway, have a look through that topic and you'll probably be able to squeeze out a few more FPS. Stuff like the scene complexity and render distance commands should help. I'd recommend an i5 if you can stretch to one, they're by far the best CPUs for DayZ.

I never played the original, why is there 3rd person?
Mos1ey replied to infiltrator's topic in General Discussion
Whether or not 3DP should be removed has been debated many times and it's a topic that both sides are quite vocal about, the devs decided to leave it in place so there is the option to play without it if you don't like it. -
No, traditional MMORPG games aren't really comparable either as they tend not to require huge chunks of the map to be loaded at one time. Those games aren't particularly hardware intensive. Try PlanetSide 2 (which actually loads much smaller areas than DayZ and still requires a pretty good system to play), ArmA 2 or ArmA 3... I'm not calling you an idiot, what I am saying is that you seem to be slightly misguided regarding how games actually work and why DayZ requires as much power as it does, regardless of the fact that it isn't very well optimised at the minute.

Mos1ey replied to infiltrator's topic in General Discussion
I always thought the headbob was fine in the mod, it was the narrow FOV that I wasn't a fan of. I'm quite limited on the number of servers that I can connect to while maintaining a reasonable ping so I haven't been able to find any 3DP:OFF servers to play on, but I'm sure if you'll be able to find one if you're in a more agreeable area. -
I don't mean to be rude but upgrade your outdated hardware then. You can't compare performance in a singleplayer game like Crysis to performance in a massively open world multiplayer game that requires huge amounts of rendering to be done at one time. It simply doesn't work like that.

Mos1ey replied to infiltrator's topic in General Discussion
Third-person view is a feature of the game. Look for servers with "3DP:OFF" in the title. -
You can drop your render distance and other settings via the config (should be detailed in the topic Porter linked to) but no, there is no "miracle cure". You won't see a massive improvement without upgrading.
-
The difference is that Crysis isn't particularly CPU intensive, whereas DayZ is.
-
30-40 FPS on low sounds about right for an Athlon in all honesty.
-
It will just about run on low settings, but will not perform very well. I'm not sure what processor you have, probably an Intel Core 2 or something? But I do not think you will be able to run DayZ. Sorry!

Change server staring items/gear
Mos1ey replied to XTheDarKnezZx's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Please look at the date of a post before replying to it... This topic is 18 months old and you could not mod the mod at the time. Locked. -
Is Operation Arrowhead compatible with ARMA2 Free?
Mos1ey replied to shacothemadjester's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
This is correct. You can indeed use ArmA 2: Free and Operation Arrowhead to play DayZ. http://kodabar.blogspot.dk/2012/05/how-to-install-dayz-with-arma-2-free.html -
I kill more or less every zombie that I see once I have a fire axe. I wouldn't say that I particularly enjoy it at this point, I just do it so they don't cause problems later. I imagine it will be more fun later in development once there are a lot more zombies and they're functioning corrently though. I broke 1000+ zombie kills a few times in the mod.

Should i buy the SA? (Frame rate related)
Mos1ey replied to DisfunctionaaL's topic in General Discussion
Post your system specs here... http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/154395-can-i-run-dayz-retail-post-here/ Honestly though, if you struggled with the mod I don't think DayZ retail will perform much better for you. -
I think this will come when the ability to hunt animals for meat is implemented and more food sources are available.
-
^This. No need to get personal, guys.

With the OP taking a well deserved vacation from the forums I think it's time to lock this...
