most exclusively in US = console gamers > PC gamers

It won't come out until long after the PC release is finished. -
The flashlight has pistol animations as a placeholder for now. I'm sure sure they'll improve down the road.

mkay bye

I would think som in the mod you could throw empty cans to make a distraction for zombies.

Lets Troll Infestation:Survivor Stories (The WarZ)
colekern replied to Save F10's topic in General Discussion
Could this be anymore childish? -
Probably a sniper.

Nothing wrong with posting about it. And being inexperienced is something everyone goes through, it's because of inexperience that I have some of my fondest memories of DayZ. Just remember, be extremely careful. Always log out in safe spots, and play as if someone were always watching you. Also, you logged out on a coastal town, which are almost always swarming with players, even on low population servers. In DayZ, every life is a lesson, and that's the greatest things about the game. Live and learn.

Figure out how to open dxdiag and post the results from the "display" section here.

No. You misunderstand the timer. There are two timers. One is the combat timer. When you log out, you character sits down ingame and stays for thirty seconds before despawning. This is to prevent people from logging off to avoid combat. The second is the server timer, the one you're referring to. When you log out, a set time is given to you until you can log back on. This is to prevent what's called server hopping, the practice of jumping from server to server to get more loot. A simple fix would be to remove the server timer if you log back onto the same server. This way you can easily get back into the game when it crashes, and there's still server hopping prevention.
-
It should be fine, just as long as you don't hop from server to server to get more loot. Choose one server, and stick with it.
-
Your game still has to render after your character is loaded into the server. Log out in safer spots.
-
Stop assuming.
-
Well, i like it. Good job, OP!
-
It's a bug. Arma and it's sequels have always had the issues, it's just not a big deal in a game where most of the time you run around outside. it becomes noticeable in a game like DayZ. I would imagine it will be fixed later on.
-
Interesting. But then, how exactly would that sound?
-
How can I make DayZ run better? Its already on the lowest!
colekern replied to Leonidas1357's topic in Troubleshooting
It's pretty close. Try reducing your render resolution. -
Umm... they're already in...
-
Nope. Might wanna check the Epoch forums.
-
This has been suggested about 200 times, and every time the idea is shot down. No.
-
what do you guys do when you meet zombies without weapons?
colekern replied to bioned's topic in General Discussion
Punch them in the face. -
Have you tried updating your drivers?
-
Agreed, but keep in mind that having the art team make different colored variants of gear doesn't slow down programmers. As for the suggestion, yes. I'm pretty sure melee is mostly just a placeholder for now.
-
He posted the specs. He can run it, albeit not smoothly.
-
I have a friend that has similar specs, and he can run it. Expect to run the game in medium/low settings in 720p or 900p. You should get an average of around 35-45 fps in forests, and 20 in large towns (30 FPS in generally considered the minimum standard, it's what a lot of Xbox 360/PS3 games run in). Not smooth, but playable. As for upgrades, that's sadly not how it works. Upgrading generally refers to replacing hardware. Hardware is the internal parts of your computer. for example, if my processor is weak, I can buy a new one and replace it. Unfortunately, you can't upgrade a laptop. If you have any questions about in-game settings, shoot me a PM. I'd be happy to help.

Same thing for me, few days ago on a full server, me and a group of guys looted the airfield for 4 hours straight because the server restarted so often. Not another soul in sight.
