    Idea for ending Sniper abuse

    But both Zeroing and bullet drop(I think at least) are already in this game. If they want to make a standalone they are going to make a serious engine to run it on. That takes time. Im sure Rocket will get something goin on.

    How to Stop Dupers in Dayz #2

    I saw it here. Awesome video BTW.

    Potential Graphical Artifacting Fixes

    The only fix I have found is to stop playing for the day.

    why are so many children playing this game?

    Its a game. Ratings are just some arbitrary piece of crap to prevent developers from being sued. I get what you are saying, but no kid is going to play real life DayZ...at least I hope not because they are going to artifact like a motherfucker.

    Tired of whine posts, well here is another

    I get very hot and cold with this mod simply because the way I want to play I cant. For example. Yesterday I was on day 19 of my character. I apparently logged off in BAF so when i came back I immediately went to loot the hangars. Rounding the corner I saw a guy coming out of the hangar and took a shot cus he scared me. I heard him over voice saying "Woah woah" but for some reason the server i was on had tags to show if someone was a bandit or not. I said sorry you scared me and started to make my way back towards the hangar door when i hear pop pop pop. I was about to lose my shit because I thought he was being a sucker. Turns out there was a 3rd person on the runway and killed him, who I then killed. I made my way off BAF and headed to Cherno when I noticed something in the trees. There was a "debug dot" in som ebushes so I thought it was a person. Turns out it was a parked Dirtbike. So what did I do? I got on the bike and drove around beeping until I got killed. That was fun as hell I have to admit. I then respawn in Cherno, fresh off the beach I try to make my way back to where I was killed. I round the corner of a church and there is a bandit in there. He fires i escape and say "Im friendly and have nothing but your a bandit so I am sure you dont care". I then stopped in my tracks and let that loser shoot me. Congrats on getting nothing. Next spawn, meet a guy with a crossbow and I tell him I'm friendly and unarmed. He decides to NOT kill me and we loot together for a bit. We go our separate ways and then I get killed by some rooftop loser. TL;DR - Point is the game is fun sometimes, and other times its just such a piece of shit that I hate so much I want to slam my keyboard into tiny plastics. People are cool. People suck. Also..see signature.

    As50 tws is it hacked??

    You are already at the NWAF, just drop it and find another gun. I dont think you will be banned and even so maybe you can do something about it...but dont get your hopes up.

    A little interpretation

    Alpha - $14.99 Beta - $19.99 Finished release - $24.99 Please note these prices are just pulled out of thin air but that is what the minecraft model is. First release(Alpha) is cheapest and includes everything up to and including the main release. Next release(Beta) is more expensive than Alpha but will be a bit more polished. Anything up to and including the final release is included. Final release(finished product aka Version 1.0) will be the most expensive but will be(should be) stable and free of most bugs. I should also note(in case it is not clear) there wont only be 3 versions/updates of the game. What i posted above also includes all the patches/updates as well. So fear not my friend. Your best bet if you truly want the standalone is to get it as early as possible.

    You mad survivors?

    Is that a golden revolver? I call BS.
  9. LOL I love how you are just repeatedly chopping them after they are both obviously dead. Great video!

    My tent's working fine??

    Blatantly trying to dupe and posting ont he forums about it? Sorry...I had to be "THAT" guy.
  11. Hmm.... aren't Private servers still against the ToS, or with the standalone coming out have the rules relaxed a bit? I remember server you describe being blacklisted from the Hive etc, and for good reason. Whats to stop you from gearing up to the max and making a base on a pvt server, then going to a public server to ruin other peoples game. And if you die you can just pop into your private server to gear up again. I know YOU may not be thinking of doing this and may genuinely be sick of the get killed always gameplay that is dominating this mod but I wish you the best of luck.

    Prevent Spawning in locations..

    Just one question. Or suggestion perhaps. Players that CREATED the object would need an exception from this rule or else you would block off a base and then screw yourself over lol.

    What will make DayZ a better Mod?

    Meh...id call that sanity, not intuition lol.

    What will make DayZ a better Mod?

    I'll just say this. If Arma 2 was deployed as CONSOLE ONLY...there would be no DayZ forums. Why is that? What breathes life into any game that developers hand the controls over to the community? You guessed it. Mods. Go mod your xbox then tell me how that works out for you. Also i believe one of your arguments was KB+M vs controller. Well guess what. My "inferior" device can use BOTH setups, and numerous others. IRtracker, Kinect, joystick, etc.

    What will make DayZ a better Mod?

    You are a fucking idiot. "hacking" in the "traditional" sense does NOT exist on consoles. Ever heard of stat padders, modders and all that? I could give a shit less about "hackers", I'm talking about "professional" douchebags that ruin the game. All I am advising Rocket here is to develop the game for the platform that made it a hit. The motherfucking PC. I swear to god if I have to adjust my controls around a clearly console-based layout*cough...CS:GO...cough* then I will be pissed. It is really time for developers to stop burning PC gamers when in reality PC gaming makes the longevity of a game advance 2fold. Most every game that is still active, and not "Hammer Legioned" these days is due to modding. Bottom line...and take this to the bank. If DayZ goes console oriented or even console consideration before its fully released...it will fucking FAIL. I have a 360 and a PS3, I am not saying consoles are useless...i jsut hate when developers lose sight of what MADE them, and what is really way more benficial to the product itself.
  16. You dont have a controller plugged in do you? If so check that puppy. If not use the numpad to look around the different directions. If that dosent work press your directional keys to move the direction. I know exactly what you are talking about though. Had this happen as the guy said above when you are looking around and pass out .

    I mean honestly. You and your buddies had to be on TS or something just dying laughing. I would love to do this. I play with 1 other person I know and we always try to get CZs and then raid some shit up. But what you described just sounds so glorious, and I'm not even a bandit!

    What will make DayZ a better Mod?

    I wish i could TAKE beans from you... Rocket. please don't cater to the console crowd in the beginning. I dont care if you release a port to them or something, but please, please, PLEASE DONT MAKE THIS GAME WITH A CONSOLE EVEN IN YOUR MIND. Do not "DICE/EA" us. Worry about porting that puppy later.

    What will make DayZ a better Mod?

    I wish the Standalone would debut with a DIFFERENT MAP. Everyone knew Chernarus. No one is suprised by getting killed in certain areas. I would LOVE to see a different map(not an Arma map basically). One "control" i would love to see changed is the ladder climbing. There is nothing more stupid that having to roll you mouse wheel and click it or enter next to an already glitchy ladder. I cant wait for the standalone. For example the "instancing" of underground bases. Imagine finding a hole(finding a tent in the mod) and going in it and not knowing if they entire base is full of dudes planning a raid. Perhaps its full of survivors planning a scavenge mission. Maybe nobody. Those will be the "new"(old) exciting moments that you rush to the forums to type about. Also the ability to lock down the standalone better, ensuring at the very best "LESS" hackers.

    LOL so deliciously dickish. +1 friend.

    Bad Advice.

    I have played both ways and I have to say that both have pros and cons. Sure making new friends is fun, but so is sniping troublemakers from a far. Sure telling someone to run to you and you will help them then shooting them is fun, but so is saving someone running for their life. My point is I personally like to change my experience with every life. The only thing that remains the same is my looting path(depending on if i want military grade gear or if i want joe the hunters gear from his barn). I like your post though because there needs to be advocated for both sides of the coin. I think that luckily the Nvidia fix fixed my gfx errors, so I should really start playing more.

    Launch OA without Day Z

    What is "Expansion"? Perhaps DayZ Commander or whatever you use named it that? Have you tried disablng them 1 by 1(not Arma 2 or operation arrowhead obviously).

    Launch OA without Day Z

    I quote myself because i KNOW that this works as I have to do that exact thing when i want to use the mission editor or play Domination/Insurgency Mod.
