Our crew only really play origins anymore, its mostly out of performance though! 3 of us have seeeeriously low end computers, and barely struggle to play normally. Origins though is running way better, getting 20-30 fps even in towns...which compared to 10-15 in chernarus is enough to keep us there really. Not over sold on origins on the whole though other than that. Are there any other mods which run notably well?

Ill be live on www.sub.fm 7-9pm GMT tonight if you fancied a listen! Will be totally out of context, but happy to pretend the apocalypse is here for a show lol Could be fun actually, going to confuse the hell out of the airwaves...

How is this meant to work by the way? Like, how would you stream to the servers? Ive been running a radio show from my house for the last 5 years. 7-9pm GMT every saturday I stream 2 hours of house and techno at sub.fm ...wondering if that could be linked up somehow I got that post apocalyptic radio patter DOWN as well

Stop arguing with the idiot lol In this world there are shit people, and there are good people. Shit people will run shit servers. Good people will run good servers. Play the good servers.

Our crew can definitely confirm at least some presence of speed change dependant on performance. We have maaany times been confused by say someone with a pistol sprint running being overtaken with ease by another of us running normally with a sniper in hand or something like that. Have tried many combinations and have never managed to work out a definitive answer. But we almost always have speed differences, and we all have veeeeery different computers. Ranging from i7s with dappa graphics cards down to dual core laptops with no seperate graphics card.

Booooyaaaahhh... now to wait for some servers!

Ahhhhhhhhhhh yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhh!!

Wow, are you actually 10? Not in a judging way, but thats crazy!! Like...I honestly didnt think 10 year olds could work computers let alone install dayz...jeeeeeez times are changing

Jeeeeeus, what has happened to music...

Butt hurt!

Adventure conslutants sounds fecking filthy... Glad rockets not missing any of those typing fingers! :)

Over the moon by the removal of the .50s! Snipers are so clearly head and shoulders above every other weapon type, it makes perfect sence to remove the absoloutely top end of them. 1 hit killing doesn't make snipers any more fun for anyone. If you dont think having a DMR is enough of a good find... This update is looking to be utterly amazing!

No, there wont. There will be a lot of very satisfied customers, and the odd whining child. Its been like, less than a year since the standalone got announced and people are getting impatient lol! How quickly do people expect this thing to be turned around??? Screw it. Lets hope they just re-release the mod. Throw in some dogs and a new type of helicopter with rocket launchers and get it out in the next week. Thats DEFINITELY whats important...not the fact they're on the verge of (as long as they dont mess it up by rushing it) creating the greatest piece of computer entertainment ever concieved

Play some new maps if you havent already! I played chernarus for a good 9/10 months before trying any other maps, as as soon as I did I totally recaptured the majority of that feeling! Maybe a little less excited to find a lee enfield, but walking around somewhere you dont know at all with no map or guns definitely brings a "shit the bed" feeling back! Ive now been playing taviana for a good month or two, and am only just beginning to get a bit jaded by it in the same way. ...next stop lingor!

I realised when i first started playing that the joy was in not knowing wtf was going on. So i never let myself look at a map i hadnt found in game, never looked on the internet for any information and just learnt it slowly. Have been playing for a year now though so yeah chernarus has gotten too familiar. But ive just started playing some other maps in the last couple months and again doing the same thing, it does feel surprisingly fresh! Have only really played taviana for a couple months now and i only just feel like im getting too familiar. Not googling is the way!

And also forgive the likelihood that this thread already exists... But what the fuck?? New starting gear added. ("Makarov","8Rnd_9x18_Makarov","8Rnd_9x18_Makarov","ItemBandage","ItemPainkiller","HandRoadFlare") Is this actually going to happen in the next update? I have...no idea how that could be justified. The most notable improvement I ever remember happening to the gameplay in dayz came when they first took the starting makarov away...I mean just...what???? I dont even...

Disagree. So glad theyve gotten rid of it again. Made SUUUCH a difference to reducing coast KOS mentality. Completely transformed the game when they originally put it in "hardcore mode". Glad the best mod update is getting reupdated!

what the fudge does Vanilla Dayz exactly mean? Public hive servers with no extra modifications? If so, why call it vanilla...1337getme?

Hey there, me and a mate been playing a nice whitelisted server for months, but its completely died in the last couple weeks. Gutted about it, only place we ever really got to play dayz properly on without hackers ruining it. Anyway yeah, looking to find somewhere else to accomodate!

In terms of CPU demand alone, how much easier as an estimated % would the standalone be to run compared to the current mod?

Im pretty sure you only run through half the animation 3 times, then once all the way through as you actually get out your weapon. Id say 6 seconds all in all max? Probably about right for waking up after being literally knocked unconscious?

thought this was going to be about the actual bug! Where sometimes after you wake up from being unconscious, your sound doesn't come back properly. You get stuck with the muffled volume of being unconscious until you disconnect/reconnect. Now THATS a bug :P

Ha, really? No idea how you reached this post. I love bandits, without them the game would be dry as hell. Some servers I used to play that had a really active side chat were just absoloutely lifeless. Would meet people without even as much as a raised voice of concern. I end up hunting people from time to time too. Still doesnt mean the game should ever be directed towards it. Its a zombie survival mod. Hes not going to water it down so people can get on with sniping bambis without having to deal with those pesky, noisy blighters. Theres an almost endless pool of games aimed towards PvP, for the very simple reason I said before, its the lowest common denominator. Its what the average person wants out of a game. And thats cool. This game just isnt for them. Any step rocket takes to accomodate for that at the expense of the survival aspect is a very literal 'selling out' of his concept for dayz, and would be a sure sign the games been affected by something other than rockets vision. And I repeat, thats not a good thing. And your point about an angry employer is pretty laughable too. Rocket made a community of millions of players out of the fundamental concept of making a ruthless, harsh, unforgiving survival game. The only reason its turned into the deathmatch it has been for the last few months (and thus also started to lose some peoples interest) is because for a while now, zombies (unintentionally) havent been an issue. Sorry there, you picked the completely wrong person to pull that post out on. I dont think anythings overpowered, have absoloutely no qualms with being shot by someone, and if anything encourage a PvP element of people APPROACH to the mod, but not the mod itself. You are all sorts of in the wrong im afraid :)

Doesnt matter why a game exploded. If rocket just wanted to make a popular game/money then yeah im sure he could go along the line of pandering to the lowest common denominator. But that is the arch-enemy of creativity. He has a vision, he will stick to it. People can like it or fuck off basically. Rocket making the game how he wants it is Jimi Hendrix holding 2 mins of savage feedback by chewing his guitar next to some stadium speakers, whereas doing what the general public wants you to do is Justin Beiber holding his crotch and blowing kisses at 12 year olds.

Its just a glitch with the update. Im sure itll get patched out soon. Especially since they removed the thermal scope gun in the same update :P
