No it officially starts tomorrow the 11th, but Sony, Microsoft and some other companies are having press conferences the day before E3 begins usually. Source: http://www.ign.com/wikis/e3/E3_2013_Press_Conferences

When did you get your graphics card btw? If it's quite new and you find no other solutions you can send it back for warranty.

Damn it Krihelion you're the kind of people that pushes other people to buy new stuff. AbusivePoptart: I have a 5770(which according to krihelion would be very outdated then) and Dayz runs fine. If a 5770 can run DayZ fine then a 6800series can run DayZ more than fine :D. If you have problems on DayZ then it might be because of your CPU(processor). It might be too old. Also a lack of memory could be a problem(you really need a minimum of 4Gb).

Obviously a small dev team cannot focus on improving graphics which, as rocket said, can take a very long time to do. If the functionality is pleasing than that's perfect for now! DayZ is a great game that hopefully will carry a legacy so that bigger developers can make great similar games in the future.

Not sure if trolling or serious.. If serious, you obviously haven't heard of this concept called "Video Game".

That would actually be very helpful yes! The performance is certainly different than before so some info would always prove helpful for some people. However, Rocket did say the performance should be around the same as in Dayz(optimization coupled with better engine).. but that was a few months ago.

Given a nice UI, reading books in DayZ would be an amaaazing addition! However, I understand you Katana. Having player houses/underground bases would be a good place for those books instead of being an prey in the open ground.

Hah, I can already imagine the madmen running around covered in blood shouting "Friendly in Cherno!!" :D

The blood seems like an interesting and more subtle idea, but it's not really authentic is it? I mean if you just shot somebody in the head, taking his gear doesn't neccesary mean you got blood all over yourself. It would be amazing if you'd be able to implement a system that puts blood on people's clothes when they killed people with melee weapons. People will say this is unbalanced as people using guns don't get affected by that, but I don't think this game is about balance/nerfing.. This means that people using guns wouldn't be able to be spotted as bandits, but I think that's a good thing! There'd be more stress and tension in player encounters as they wouldn't know if the person they're facing is a good or bad guy.

Awesome! I really hope the zombies feel much more realistic than before :D, and looking that that screenshot it looks like they are going to be amazing.

It would very very highly surprise me if they'd release today lol. However, deducing from Rocket's tweets the release is soon, which means anywhere from 1 week to 4-6weeks.

Some people..

No, you need a new laptop or a new desktop.

The most annoying thing was when on the main stream the map was on instead of the real stream. But you could always switch over to another stream so in the end yeah it seemed to go pretty smooth. Btw I don't understand all the people in the chat raging at the Staff(in the last phase) for rigging the game. The players knew there were staff members present at the last phase to act as last-standing enemy NPC's. That's also the reason zombies are included, to act as annoying things that can disrupt normal gameplay and thus improve the experience imo.

If a 660ti Ain't enough for a good performance on DayZ for you then 2 won't do the cut either. If you're having low performance think of upgrading CPU/RAM/get an SSD to run DayZ on. Or it might simply be that your system has the malfortune to run DayZ poorly(because DayZ is badly optimized). But really I play DayZ just fine on a AMD HD 5770, which is a card from 2009.

He'll be at the office this monday :). According to his twitter we can expect lots of info! source: https://twitter.com/rocket2guns/status/337835454873354241

wut.. ? First of all CoD & BF not being as good as Arma is purely subjective+ they are entirely different games meant to played differently. So what you're saying is we are not allowed to play DayZ if we play any other FPS than Arma & DayZ? Bro you've got problems.

Honestly to all people who are thinking of buying DayZ now I think is a waste a money. The standalone alpha is almost there and Arma 3 also, so it's better to wait for both :)

Dont Know if trolling or serious. If serious: bro you obviously haven't played BF3 multiplayer for more than 10 hours.

I'm sorry if I offended you. If people are rich well 12,50 won't mean a thing :) But generally speaking I believe 12,50 euros could be better spent on another great steam winter sale!

I'm sorry but paying 12,50 euros(or whatever currency) for Arma 2:CO only to play dayz is pretty damn retarded at this moment. The standalone version of DayZ will come out shortly(could be in a week.. maximum 2months)

Oh gawd.. what a tragic death Demon ^^ My most embarassing death is very simple.. I was proning on the egde of a roof (apartment in cherno) when I pressed the wrong key and rolled to my death -.-" edit: PS: I was with a friend on skype and he pissed his pants of laughter, made it even worse haha :D

I hope that in the standalone the L85 will stay and that the thermal scopes will be removed.

Hi all, I've started a passworded private server with some friends. The idea was to have more relaxed gameplay at start and then escalate into clan wars. -> First we scavenge for supplies and remain friendly, but once geared up we form 2 clans and wars may be started. Gamemodes like "Capture the ...(whatever)" could also be played and much other stuff that you couldn't do on a central hive server. If you are interested and are looking to play on a relaxed server add me on steam: Alpha_Mat
