What the hell? I've never one-shot a zombie with any pistols unless it was to the head. You can give them 4-5 shots to the body often and still not kill them.

Like anyone wants tactical advice from someone with a gay pony as their avatar.

Does it being on the same engine as Arma2 OA mean that we still have to put up with the terrible lighting system? I was hoping for some better night-time play with the more advanced lighting of Arma 3 :(

I'll find a new board-game then, cause this one is badly designed.

If someone is enough of a selfish asshat to cheat in an online game, they get what's coming to them. It's alot safer for these morons now that the internet is around. Natural selection was reducing the numbers of these idiots in the past, as to be a sociopathic asshat wasn't protected by internet anonymity and they would get punched in the throat alot more than nowadays.

This thread Moo-ved me to tears.

I would have gotten myself to soemwhere I knew exactly where I was and just let myself die. Then run back when respawned and pick up all the gear. You'd have to be pretty unlucky for soomeone to come by and loot your corpse before you got back to it. That's the only nice thing about dying to zombies or the environment, at least your loot will still be sitting there on your body when you get back.

I got shot yesterday by a guy holding nothing in his hands. He had no visible weapon, but was shooting rounds that sounded like a Minigun and had green tracers on them O.o

Also in lingor, you can attach the military flashlight to your shoulder and use different filters on it. :D

Someone got banned, can't figure out how to add his new CD key he bought so he comes here with the lame "my sister got banned on this PC" excuse. It's pretty fucking transparent. Hopefully you learned your lesson OP and stop the cheating, but I have a feeling you'll end up getting this new CD key banned too shortly.

The average person is a selfish asshole. Many average people play games.

You need to "see" them in game. Like if you haven't looked in that direction, you won't see the map markers. It only reveals units that you have had your screen-view on recently.

If they were cheating, why would they be insisting others should see them too?

You won't see the little dots if you haven't moved your view over them yet. Maybe your friends just look around more than you.

Lol someone's scared to lose his tent full of AS50 TWS.

Just leave your game running till your guy catches cold and dies while you watch some netflix or something. Annoying for sure. I've noticed a new "wave" of cheaters lately too. They are running amok on many servers.

Do us all a favor OP and use the gun in your Avatar instead.

I use teamspeak set with push-to-talk all the time in game. Works fine for me.

It seems to be worse lately. Ive been having a hard time finding servers that don't just murder my framerates. Usually I can get 70-100 FPS in Arma2/Dayz but on many servers I see crap like 25-40 FPS or even worse sometimes. It makes finding a server very annoying when there is no way of telling if you'll have playable framerates.

I haven't found a way yet, but if you click your M button to open the map, you can see the GPS display the coords there. Also, in the normal mode, you can see the grid co-ordinates around the edges of the GPS screen.

Nothing can be made "hack proof". The thing is, the Arma2 engine is just not set up as a Multiplayer game focusing on PvP. It trusts the client far too much, letting alot of these issues happen. The standalone will actually be intended from the ground up to not allow these scripts to be run, meaning people will actually have to develop hacks for it instead of just using the scripting system already in the game.

They need to fix this so you can change between axe/firearm more easily. Probably not going to happen in the mod though. As melee weapons are pretty "hacked-in" right now.

I get crappy framerates on most of the servers now too. Something in the client-server interaction is killing my FPS, as I know I can get 60-80 frames avg in this game with my beast of a rig. I'm not sure why, but something in the netcode is causing our clients to run very badly when the servers are having issues. Could it be that this is how the sync is maintained? Not letting the clients run faster than the server? Ever hear of interpolation? Geez.

I haven't been able to get a tent to save since the last patch. This needs fixing asap. No wonder everyone just deathmatches in the cities now. No point to gathering gear that's just going to dissapear on your in hours when the server resets.
