I just recently updated to the new patch and I keep hearing flies. It's a faint sound like there's only one, but I never remember hearing flies in this game other than when I was near dead bodies. Has anyone else noticed this or has this always been a sound effect?

I didn't find this thread until today... and reading it I felt as though I had lived through over a week of waiting with the rest of you. My heart is heavy with the lack of OP delivery. But rest assured there will be deliverance for all of us who waited... OP will squeal like a pig. :)

1st person can be dizzying and it's not like it's all that realistic. Your field of view is tiny compared to real life, making situational awareness frustrating at times. I understand the lack of realism in looking around corners but overall I think 3rd person is a better experience. Edit: Just saw that someone said you can turn head bob off. Wasn't aware of that. I think that's a good feature because the head bob thing is stupid. In real life, your brain and body naturally seem to absorb a lot of head movement and compensate for vibrations. I don't get motion sickness from running.

Yeah I wouldn't recommend the shooting one, that's stupid. I just let other people know I'm friendly and if they kill me then they kill me. I am devoted to being a good person in the game so I will sacrifice myself for the chance of meeting another friendly :). If someone shoots me though and I have the opportunity to shoot back then I will.

So it's either really slow forums or nothing at all? I don't believe there is anything wrong with letting the powers that be know that the website is being really slow, especially if it's a fixable problem.

Now that's preposterous! Chilly is no state for a turtle.

I was noticing yesterday that it was quite slow.

A lot of poor souls have suffered at your hands :(

Nice TimBob. I got a good laugh out of that.

I haven't been able to sleep since I heard about the horrors of mountain. I haven't even been there yet, but when I close my eyes to sleep at night, it calls to me.

I don't know what the hell ghosting is, but I'm guessing it has something to do with mountain.

What is this? Am I misunderstanding something or did the OP just write a lighthearted positive thread about the game and you decided it was a great opportunity to prove you're a dick? Sorry if I'm wrong.

*Thumbs up.* Like. Beans.

So you read the dice wrong? Suppose your vision might be a little blurry.

I thought he was sort making a point about a certain mindset, not about dying and whining about it. Let me just say though that I'm amazed you used the proper Than/Then but somehow couldn't get "By." I suppose it was 50/50 with the Then/Than option but you had three options for "By" (By/Bye/Buy). Just a roll of the dice I guess.

I guess that sums this whole thread up nicely. Beans.

Why not help? What you said makes no sense. Even leaving him there alone would have been a better option, even if it meant he would probably die. Getting yourself killed just to kill a new spawn is possibly the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. Hence, why I made the argument above that sometimes it's just stupid people who are killing the new spawns.

While I think there is some truth to what you say, there is also the other possibility that some people are just really not that smart and shoot on sight may be the easiest decision for them. You don't have to think about what the other person might be thinking when you shoot on sight. You don't have to think "Are they going to kill me," "What weapons do they have," "What condition are they in," "Are they being chased by zombies already," "What are their motives for being in the area," "What is the risk to me," and any other questions that assess threat level. Instead they have programmed their minds into "Move mouse, press button." It's just easiest that way for a simple mind.

Can you read? It is old when it becomes such a go-to phrase that people use it in situations where it doesn't apply. Of course Rocket can take the game in whatever direction he wants. Does anyone here honestly think that the direction he wants to take it in is severe artifacting everywhere? Absolutely not. So when someone makes the argument that artifacting is annoying/has been made worse and what the hell are the developers doing, "It's Rocket's game and he can do what he wants" is just stupid. Like I pointed out, people were able to make completely valid arguments that point out the stupidity of this thread. Don't turn DayZ into a community of fucktards with brainless responses.

I'm still trying to figure out the whole killing new spawns thing. I've seen many people try to explain why they do it but it doesn't make any sense. Dying as a new spawn certainly doesn't ruin my night. What it does do is make me think "Huh... well that was a waste of time." And then I start again. When I have decent gear and I get into a firefight then dying can actually be fun. My heart rate goes up and I'm like "Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit" the whole time. That's exciting and fun no matter what the outcome is. Dying as a new spawn is just a waste of everyone's time. I think it's a legit statement to make to say that real PvPers go to the North to fight other PvPers, not to take out easy bait. Or hell, stay in Elektro and Cherno, but kill people who can fight back. Again, I don't care if I get killed as a new spawn. But it is a concept I struggle to understand, shooting unarmed or very lightly armed people who aren't a threat.

^These would be legitimate arguments against the "It didn't fix anything oh my god what are you guys doing?" argument. "It's Rocket's mod, it's free, he can do whatever he wants, therefore fuck off." is getting really old on the forums. My point was only that if morons come on the forums with stupid threads like this, don't respond with equal stupidity.

As much as I am not condoning a bitching thread like this, this form of defense for Rocket doesn't apply here. I'm beginning to see it everywhere. If something's wrong "Oh, it's alpha, quit complaining." Sometimes that absolutely applies, sometimes it doesn't. In this case the argument being made is why the hell was there a patch released at all if it didn't work or made things worse. Rocket didn't make the decision to make a shitty update. So it's not "...his idea. Don't like it? Fuck off." That being said from what it sounds like it didn't really do anything so what was the point? What new code were they testing before they released it that told them everything was fixed? Still though, Intensity obviously went about his/her criticism in a bitchy way. Go be passive aggressive somewhere else, we're here to provide feedback.

I'm confused. I see paragraphs... anyways I liked the story :). It's situations like this that make dying just as exciting as winning a firefight. Unlike if you get sniped when you have a flashlight and a bandage... Then it becomes annoying.
