Alternatively, and more in fitting with Rocket's "skills you have in real life should be useful in game" ethos, you could just learn to read the Russian-Cyrillic road signs?

and take out all the guns. violence is for idiots.

You need to watch the presentation Dean did at Rezzed a few days ago.

I dreamed that I finally got the email saying 'The external closed testing is now open and here is your build, with installation walkthrough', with that magical attachment. I literally can remember the content of the email - the excitement transferred into real life when I woke up. Whilst this reflects on me as being an incredibly sad person, I want to get testing :(

It depends. Do they pay for your cab fare home after?

I've only just seen that American Psycho axe-murderer video for the first time and that is hands down the most acceptable behaviour I've ever seen. HEY PAUL. That's exactly all I'd do if I could be bothered to do a radio station. Just something to create more in-game atmosphere. LIKE THE MESSAGE IN LOST THAT HAS BEEN PLAYING FOR YEARS AND YEARS OMFG.

And I shall be hunting you down Het. I came into this thread, saw your reply, and it made me smile. Gone about my day, and now I've got that "I've been talking to Jesus, all maaah liiiife" song by Phil Collins on an indefinite loop in my mind. Nice one mate. Nice one...

Man, I love that some items are gonna be so rare that there's literally only one of X in existance across the entire player-base... I can't wait to go all Book of Eli on that shit.

Let your character gather his breath after running before going into ADS. ...and keep your weapon on its single shot function - this isn't Harlem.

Hahahaha, what the hell. That isn't a dodgy camera angle... That's a straight up nazi salute.

Balota Buddies foar lyf!

I'd have to assume it's legit, especially if it's coming from the BIS domain. Jiri Velek could be a member of the BIS support staff, or something... after all, if you Google my name, you don't find out what bank I work in!

lol, op is stupid hi devteam plz make it so i can put m249 machinegun into my trouser pockets thanks on a serious note, i'm going to go ahead and assume the dev team are going to make sure that weapons do not follow a generic slot-size.

I hate it when code gets involved in a conversation - it usually means I can't participate any further :(

I'm sorry but the guy has a very good point. Dan Hall should help him.

I hear Green Mountain is nice this time of year...

Ah right, I see what you mean now. I'm honestly not sure! Maybe it will work on the basis that as long as you've had LoS with the item before you access your inventory, then you're okay. But that's on the provision that you still have to crouch down every time you open your inventory, like ArmA... I've always thought it was a bit of a strange/restrictive thing that every time I wanted to use a bandage, I had to crouch down to get into my inventory.. Don't see the harm with allowing access to inventory whilst prone/standing as well.

That's not how it works. You need to be near the object, and have a clear line of sight with the object before you pick it up. It's not as if you can walk to a point in the room, open the proximity inventory and just collect everything around you before even having seen it...

To be honest, even if they do add thermal scopes back in (which I really hope they don't) - I think thermal cloaking blankets are a bit silly in the context of a survival game when you can go all Arnie and cover yourself in mud (like in Predator)

The problem with the robbing mechanic of banditry is that people are too willing to open fire. There is essentially zero value attached to your characters life, in regards to the mod, so if someone came at you telling you to relinquish your weapons, you're more likely to turn around and open fire on the guy than give away all your loot.

Any excuse!

Unanswered bump (see post #362 for my potential system spec)

People play with crosshairs on!?

If no-one answers, no-one answers man. Don't rush people - if you really want the opinions of the forum community, then hold back on buying the desktop tomorrow and wait for someone to reply. In regards to your specs, DayZ is heavily dependant on CPU power as opposed to GPU power so a 3.5GHz CPU seems more than efficient. You may want to disable hyperthreading on the i7 processor as this can cause issues, so I've heard.. All in all, your spec looks pretty good to me so I'd expect to be able to play on High with a good frame rate, but if you want an opinion from someone who really knows what they're talking about, I recommend you PM the local guru, beatSTV. Debating whether to change the HD7870 in the listing for a HD7990... Would there be much point, with the rest of the build specifications? ie. would it bottleneck or something?
