    Can I Run DayZ Mod? (POST HERE)

    Thats what he / she's saying. The website lets you build a computer.
  2. Maybe, on some servers, I get into alot of really funny coversations on global chat. No, there is a moon, the sun relfects it, creating light. At night it is unplayable. Fix the flashlights seizure inducing shaking and I'll gain a bit more respect for this suggestion. So how am I to know if me and my friend have joined the correct server? Agreed. Agreed. Agreed. Agreed; this should definately encourage people to use 1st person more, and use iron sights. They are going to try to stop server-hopping in the SA, but otherwise agreed. The E3 footage has a surrender animation, but I like the hands behind head idea: point a gun at someones head and move them along with their hands behind their head... No zombiefication. Otherwise, yes.
  3. I don't know what it is. I am reinstalling ArmA II OA right now, but every time I try to join a server, it says 'No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgVehicles/M119.turnCoef'. Then puts me back at the main menu. Every single server. Both PlaywithSIX and DayZ Commander do this. Also when searching for servers, none come up. It is blank, I can search for servers, but most, if not all have 10000 ping. Please help!
  4. OK, now that I've reinstalled ArmA II, I can make it to 'joining game' before I am disconnected because 'Battleshit failed to initialize'. Help?

    Pro tips for a newbie?

    Dont go near doors or gates, they are as dangerous as a bandit with a M107, before the update...you know what I mean. Cities are a very dangerous place, if you need to go in, know where to go, go in, and get out fast. Dont waste your ammo on zombies, use a hatchet or your sidearm to take them down. Other than that I would strongly reccomend playing a bit of ArmA II to get used to the controls, weapon physics, movement etc... Good luck!

    Can I Run DayZ Mod? (POST HERE)

    Yes, that will not run DayZ. Definately go for a i5 or i7. But if you want to go really cheap, go for an AMD CPU. Here is a pretty cheap build, all from PCPartpicker. Assuming you're American, this was $393.51, and should play DayZ on medium - high settings at 30+ FPS. AMD FX-4100 @ 3.6GHz 4 cores - $97.99 ASRock 970 Extreme3 - $84.99 Asus Radeon HD 7770 1GB GHz - $121.98 Raidmax ATX238WU ATX Mid tower case - $34.99 Antec High Current Gamer 400w -$73.56 I left out the RAM and HDD because you can take them from your old computer, and put them in. If you want to save $34.99, you can reuse your old case too, and really lower your cost.

    DayZ Mod 1.7.7 Patch

    Hey R4Z0R, I (and I'm sure many other people) are faced with a dilemma. Very limited internet. Downloading heaps of patches and updates can be a problem, and with the SA just around the corner, I wanted to know, how internet hungry will the SA be? And if you can, a rough estimate on how big the Steam download will be. Thanks

    Found a Holy Book?

    I'm offensive and I find this atheist.

    Can I Run DayZ Mod? (POST HERE)

    Maybe 20 - 30 on low -normal, still can't make up your mind? You've posted about 50 builds already... The CPU and GPU are pretty weak, maybe 10 - 20 everything disabled / low.
  10. For me I would like to see more junk stuff; just random rubbish as well as some new weapons, melee and ranged. Junk items - Broken glass - Pieces of metal - Broken electronics - Pieces of paper - Newspapers - Could be saying things like 'Unknown infection quickly spreading - Chernarussians urged to stay inside' Just anything, really. To add a bit more immersion; not everything you would find in the apocalypse would be useful. Weapons More Russian weapons - civilian or not, its better than finding an M240 and a M4A1 in a apocalyptic Russian country. - SVT-40 - MP-443 Grach - Tokarev - MTs-255 - PPsH (<3) - PP-2000 - DP-28 - Galil - M1 Garand - M1 Carbine - VSK - 94 - Broken glass bottle (Use for empty whiskey bottles?) - Spears - Chainsaw - Hedge trimmer - Shovel - Pitchfork - Hoe - Kitchen knife Medical items - Homemade bandage - Could be created by using a shirt, it fails easily, works for a shorter time than a normal bandage, and if your clothing is infected with Cholera(?), it has a chance to infect you. - Maybe you could use whiskey or vodka as a temprary painkiller - You could use knifes to remove bullets or shrapnel, at the risk of bleeding. - Scalpel - Better way to remove bullets / shrapnel, much lower risk of bleeding. - Dismemberment, too. Not from handguns and smaller caliber guns, from bladed weapons, and high powered weapons: KSVK, sniper rifles, some LMGs etc. Losing an arm or leg would knock you down and you would bleed profusely, at like 350 blood loss per second. Losing a head would kill you instantly. You could use this to your advantage too, getting chased by a zombie? Just cut off his legs! Problem solved! Also I would say to replace the M16 with a slightly more common AR-15. It is more available to civilians, aside form the M16, which is mainly military. I think it'd be cool to have shrapnel wounds in DayZ aswell, a grenade that goes off near you could give you wounds that bleed over time, requiring a knife or scalpel to remove the pieces. Well, what do you think should be put into the SA, focusing mainly on items and weapons?

    Starting Items in 1.7.7

    No....I get along just fine with a bandage and painkillers, I'm sure theres people who get along with no starting gear at all. New players finding it too hard? Harden the fuck up then.
  12. Haven't played DayZ in AGES. Installing the new patch right now. I'll give you my opinion in a few months. Maybe years, idk depends how long I play for.

    Crafting Suggestions (no discussion)

    @Uuni, shouldn't the recipe be something like this? I don't know about you, but I don't know how you would get 'ground' or 'pond' or whatever, let alone keep it in your inventory. Input: Any weapon except handguns, crossbow, melee weapons, ghillie suit, duct tape. Output: Camoflauged weapon. Tools: None FailChance: 0 Enchantments: Adds camoflauge to weapon added ActionType: Recipe _____________________ Shotgun trap :D Input: Shotgun, string Output: Shotgun trap Tools: None Failchance: 0.1 (Chance to go off while setting it.) Enchantments: Shoots people who set off the trap, crippling / breaking their legs. ActionType: Booby trap Bayonet: Input: Any weapon, apart from handguns, crossbows, melee weapons and RPGs, combat knife, kitchen knife. Output: *Weapon* w/ bayonet Tools: None FailChance: 0 Enchantments: Can stab / slash close range targets ActionType: Adds a blade to a weapon for a close range attack Input: Baseball bat, nails Output: Nailed baseball bat Tools: Hammer Failchance: 0 Enchantments: Gives you a baseball bat with nails in it; thus giving more damage ActionType: Nailed bat Input: Satchel charge, meat (any animal, or survivor if you're that sad) string Output: Zombie attracting explosive Tools: None FailChance: 0 Enchantments: Exploding zombie attractor ActionType: Explosive Forgive me if any of these have been set out incorrectly, or have been suggested before, I didn't have enough time to go through each page checking everyones ideas.
  14. 1- One minute its zombies aren't even a threat anymore, they aren't a problem! Next minute its aww zombies are too hard, they knock you down all the time! Dont go near the zombies if you dont want to get knocked down! 2- Its still in alpha, there is loads of bugs and glitches that screw things up for everyone, you'll have to wait for the SA when the bugs and glitches are worked on. 3- I agree, people should have some variety. But there will be a MASSIVE variety of clothing in the SA, so you can say 'I'm the guy with the black and white striped shirt and jeans!' 4- Yes, but DayZ is a mod for a military simulator. I don't think BiS had zombie evasion and things like that in mind while they were making ArmA II. 5- That depends on how far away you are from the target? If you are 3ft away from a zombie you can aim right at its head and pop it. If you are 900ft away from one you will have to aim up and zero out further. 6- Finding rubbish is a good thing. The game would be boring if all you found were useful items. I'm sure everything in your house wouldn't be very useful in a zombie apocalypse. 7- Have you seen the SA footage? The inventory has been redisgned entirely. Remember DayZ is a mod for ArmA II, ArmA II is, like I said above, a military sim. They didn't think you would have to use it so much, unless I am getting ammunition or a weapon, I never open the inventory in ArmA II. 8- Again, ArmA II is a military mod. They didn't have drive bys in mind while developing it. And having maps like NYC and other cities would lag your face-hole inside out. Some people barely make it in cities with less than 20 FPS, imagine a massive map that is only a city. Anyways, most of the things you pointed out will be sorted in the SA. Have fun until then.

    Yolo should apply in SA...

    The bios are a bad idea I think, everything else sounds good.

    Can I Run DayZ Mod? (POST HERE)

    It wouldn't run at all, considering there is no GPU in that list, otherwise it should run fine with a decent middle to high class GPU with it, also if there is an option to get a quad core CPU, go for it. 30+ on high. lol, I don't think anyones that lucky. Maybe ~30+ on medium settings,but it also depends on your internet connection / speed aswell. But the canirunit site cannot give out reccomendations on what to replace or upgrade, or how much FPS you can get on what settings.

    Looking for an AS50.

    Yeah, they're pretty much useless now. Good riddance.

    Zombie AI and Zombie Physics

    1- Suggested before, I personally don't like the idea of it, unless it was very rare and avoidable. 2- As joe said above, different in terms of age / stages of infection. Newly infected zombies would be faster and stronger, where as older zombies will be slow and brain dead. 3- I hope you can get rid of them, otherwise you could end up with people doing CoD rape trains. 4- Yes, that would be awesome, I do hope they incorporate dismemberment. 5- No, way too game-y.

    Do you even realise that you are writing in black? It really annoys me when people put their specs in with font sizes at 56 and yellow letters with a pink background, I have to highlight it to read it. Whew, OK, I'm not 100% on APUs, someone else will have to tell you, otherwise, the CPU would run it, but a quad core would be better. The CPU and GPU could do with an upgrade, they are both mid-rangey.

    Can I Run DayZ Mod? (POST HERE)

    The CPU is way too weak, it should be at least 3.0GHz to run smoothly. LOL, my member title is Eaten by a grue (Zork reference, in case you were wondering), my username is dulix11. That OK though. Anywho, you didn't include a GPU with that build, I would reccomend something like a 7770+ for Radeon cards and a 650+ for Nvidia cards, other than that everything should be fine. The GPU needs an upgrade, with that build you might get 10 - 25 on low. CPU is too weak, and intergrated graphics are not very good. You'll be lucky to get to the title screen with that.
