    Trading? Wait... how?

    I don't see how that's a lot of effort. Organize a meeting point, get in position on any random server, find an empty server and send a message to said person via steam or skype w/e with the name of the server and that you're ready to make the trade. Do the trade and log off. Simple.

    Trading? Wait... how?

    You can't be 100% safe trading, that's a risk you take by opening yourself up to trading. There are things you can do to make it safer. Use an empty server. Have a mate in a vantage point with a sniper so he can back you up in case things go south. Don't take much of value with you except for the item/s you're trading. There's a list of whitelisted traders / people to avoid so that might be handy to read. Be prepared for the possibility that you and your buddy will both be killed, this is DayZ after all.

    New Zealand survivors!

    Hook the ipod up to direct mic chat, grab some flares, head to school in Chern or Electro and have a rave.

    New Zealand survivors!

    huehuehuehue. Haven't been on a NZ server in ages, too populated for me. Might check one out.

    Littlebird vs the UH1H

    Pretty sure I saw something about rocket saying he would rather the little bird than the UH1H. Might be wrong though.

    Can my iMac play, or no?

    It'd be doable with boot camp but it depends on the specs. You wouldn't be able to run it on the mac OS I don't believe, hence the need for boot camp.

    Suggestions inspired by The Walking Dead.

    2. 'We are all infected'. Nobody really knows what triggered the zombie-apocalypse in the first place. So let's say we live in a world in which we are all infected with this virus and once dead we become zombies ourselfs. Now the virus has a side-effect which kills you after a big amount of time, and it can only be stopped temporarily by drinking an 'elixer'. This rare item spawns only in one of the 4 improvised command center's,which are set up strategically across the map, right before the outbreak. The fact that you have to actually go and get some of this medicine regularly in order to survive, will cause players never to run out of an objective. It also brings a new element in the game when playing in teams. What do you do when your running out of time while your mate has one elixer in his backpack? Can you still trust eachother? It would have to be "a big amount of time" like every 12 hours of in game life starts the affect and it keeps getting worse until 3 hours later which is when you die. 3. Vehicle vs. zombie interaction. You remember the scene on the highway with all the broken cars? As if now, vehicles can't be damaged by zombie-attacks and are a safe haven for payers while under attack. Wouldn't it be more realistic if zombies we're able to damage a car and the player in it? On the other hand, I would like to add that vehicle should be stronger then they are at the moment. Sometimes running over a stopsign causes the car to explode. Vehicles definitely need to be much stronger althought I can't see them damaging things like the engine or fuel tank, bodywork and windows however would be damaged. This would also give a point to windscreen glass as they would need to break through that first before they could start attacking the players inside. Some idea's; 3.2 Wheeltype's; There should be 2 type of wheels in-game, offroad and regular. Offroad have +50% speed on offroad terrain, and visa verca. The car only works if 4 sets of wheels match. Maybe not +50% but I like the idea except for "The car only works if 4 sets of wheels match". The car wouldn't not work if it had different types of tires. But it should affect different types of vehicles differently, eg: A Skoda (which is front-wheel drive) with two offroad tires on the front and two street tires on the back would have good grip off-road (with slightly increased speed but not as much as if it had all four) while having less speed on the tarmac. A Gaz (Which is rear wheel drive) on the other hand if it had the same tire setup with two offroad tires on the front and two street tires on the back would have accurate turning off-road but the rear would have less traction and tend to slide out or lose grip and not be very fast, on the street it would be faster then having four off-road tires but not as fast as four street tires. 3.3 Toolbox; A toolbox should be required for every single repair. If your saying that you need a new toolbox for every repair, just no. A toolbox doesn't disappear after one use and you shouldn't need one to change the tires or put fuel in (engine, fuel tank, scrap metal and windscreen repairs should require one though). 3.4 Carkeys; Each type of vehicle requires a set of keys which can be found in residential spawnpoints. This way vehicles can't be stolen from campsites without having the right type of key at hand. I like this idea and would add the fact that you can hot-wire a car as long as you have the kit on your tool belt. YOu would be vulnerable while doing this and it wouldn't be a 100% chance of it working every time. Also car alarms could be another thing where if they try and get in without the keys it sets off an alarm which would draw in zombies and players in the area. Maybe even able to fit a car with a gps and you could track it with your own. 4. Zombie characteristics. If you are a fan of The Walking Dead, you proparbly noticed the huge effort that were made by the stylists of the show. You tryna tell me children cant be zombies to? I would like to see different type of zombies, each with their own characteristics. Kid zombies; They can outrun you but are easy to kill. The only problem is the outrage of everyone who doesn't like the depicting of a child being killed (even a zombie child). Just my thoughts on some of the ideas. The ones I missed out I like the way they are and haven't had anything extra to add / suggest.

    Will this computer run it? Please help

    It may. But it won't be a huge increase (if any at all).

    Crossbow arrows?

    Arrows shot into a zombie should show up in corpse's inventory when they die. Would make it so much easier to get them back off the bodies.
  12. Laptop graphics can't be upgraded which is why I always prefer to use a desktop. With laptop graphics, you want at least a gig of GDDR5 with the graphics card.
  13. Graphics card is a bit average but it should run it on Medium-high just fine at the laptop resolution.

    Prevent Hacking Guide

    Also if someone says something that looks like a server message but isn't (like a grey side chat basically). Had this happen a couple of times.
  15. It all sounds very nice but I can't do 1st person only. Arma's first person is rubbish (opinion) for everything except shooting but I can see why you want it off. Best of luck.
  16. Minimum: Windows XP Processor: Intel Core Duo 2.2 Ghz or AMD Athlon 2.5 Ghz Memory: 4gb Graphics Nividia Geforce 8600GT or ATI 4650 or faster with Shader Model 3 and 512 MB VRAM DayZ is more demanding than normal ArmA 2 so I've upped some of the specs a little. Remember this is minimum so it will probably run averagely on pretty much all the lowest settings.

    DayZ Standalone Confirmed

    Arma was never meant to be an "Everyones game" that is heavily marketed and readily available everywhere. Arma is a mil sim, not some run and gun, die and respawn instantly deathmatch FPS. All the people who bought this just to play DayZ will probably never touch the campaign or even an online server that isn't DayZ, and that's a little saddening if you ask me.
  18. Kyzahh

    Would these specs run DayZ

    Processor: Intel Celeron CPU 2.20GHz (Might be okay to run it if it had a decent graphics card, not well though.) Graphics Card: Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family. (Definitely Won't work with this.) Ram: 3.00 GB (Not enough) Virtual memory: Irrelevant.
  19. http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/Weapons List o' weaps for yah to check against.
  20. By no means am I accusing you but i'm pretty sure that gun isn't in the normal DayZ loot table. But people will still probably want it so w/e.
  21. Kyzahh

    Will these specs run DayZ

    Nope, even adding a gfx card to that won't improve it much.

    Flashlight idea

    I'd think if you were able to find these, it'd be quite good. http://ledstuff.co.nz/images/LED-HL21X1a.jpg
  23. Will also have a look. On the upcoming poll for the maps, how about including Fallujah as an option also? http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/93863-new-dayz-fallujah-map-released/
  24. If you brought it on steam, can't you hit up BEye to unban you because it was stolen?
