  1. You can still do the launch options thing. Right click on the short cut (it has to be a shortcut. If you don't have one, find the arma 2 oa folder and find thje Arma2oa exe and create a shortcut) for Arma 2 oa. You should a text box with the word "target" beside it. Put -mod=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\ArmA 2;EXPANSION;ca after all of the text in the box and save. after that, try running the game.
  2. First, try running steam as administrator. if that doesn't work, go into steam and right click on Arma 2 OA. Go to local files and click set launch option. Copy and paste this into the text box: -mod=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\ArmA 2;EXPANSION;ca
  3. The way I see it, this is just a basic skeleton. In other words, we keep it skill and button press based, but then we modify it to fit DayZ from there.
  4. It's either hackers, which can be avoided by going on a whitelisted private hive (http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/92982-community-private-hive-server-listing/) Or you need to learn the hotspots where other players tend to hang out.
  5. I kinda like the idea. Like every idea, it needs work. The main thing I like about it is that it's not a QTE. As long as we keep QTE's out of it, I think I'm good. The main thing that worries me is that a player who has low ping might have the upper hand over someone with high ping.
  6. I'd say no. In fact, it's already been talked about. Use the search function before you post because it will help cut down on repeat posts.

    Looking to upgrade my processor/need help

    I can tell for a fact that your system needs work. For that, I'm gonna turn it over to the can I run it thread. Post your specs (all of them) int the can I run it thread, because the guys over there know what they're talking about better than I do. I would help, but there are some things that confuse me and I wanna be sure I don't steer you in the wrong direction.

    How will these run DayZ

    A 660 is $100 dollars less.
  9. I was skeptical, because something similar to this has been discussed before and it was passed off as "having your story told to you". However, I woudn't mind having some sort of recap, or proof of my exploits for friends and stuff. Like others said, it needs to be blocked from you downloading it for a couple hours or so and doesn't need to reveal the shooters location.

    Looking to upgrade my processor/need help

    Tell me the rest of your specs first, just to be sure that it's the processor you need.

    Construction/Fortifications

    Use the search function. Not only has this been posted many times by users, Rocket himself has said that base building will be a major part of the game.
  12. They are infected not dead, so no.

    How will these run DayZ

    That'll do great. 8gbs, by the way, is more than enough for any game today. You can run on high with 35-45 fps. One more thing: post stuff like this is the can I run it thread.

    New Game

    Oh wait, no you HAVE to delete your current CD key first. Do your research first before you do anything. Use google and check out some stuff there.

    New Game

    I'd try googling it first, but I think you can delete your CD key in the registry then buy a game with your current account. Maybe. I'm not sure. Google it.

    Might buy this pc if...

    That's not a very good computer at all.
  17. Slow zombies? No. It's been discussed multiple times. First off, you don't like the animations. Those will be fixed in standalone. Second, while slow zombies might be kinda cool, couldn't we just, I don't know.... run? Third, that many zombies isn't exactly plausible for DayZ's engine, standalone or otherwise. Finally, DayZ is going to have a zombie lifecycle, meaning new zombies start out fast, and older zombies get slower.

    Screen goes Black after 5 Minutes

    I've got an idea. Post your specs.

    Arma II free gone?

    Try making a backup through steam itself then copying it over to your new computer. If that doesn't work, wait for standalone.

    Day Z Standalone:preventing farming and ghosting

    And what about when a server happens to go down, or you have to switch servers because of high ping? Or you wanna play with some buddies who play on different servers? No.

    Need to reset my character

    Post this here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/forum/8-bug-reports/ after reading this: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/2-please-read-before-starting-thread/ Post it along with your character ID (go into arma 2, go to your character, and it should be in the bottom left corner of the menu) and you should be good, even if it doesn't get approved.

    Make Sniping more realistic

    You could, you know, go on YouTube and look at the ACE mod.
  23. colekern

    Official faction/clan support?

    I'm gonna have to say no. First off, its not realistic. Second, it just doesn't fit with DayZ. Sorry. It would be better and whole lot more dynamic of there was no faction system whatsoever.
  24. You're being kind of a jerk now. One one of your poll options is literally making fun of people who disagree with you. I'm not really sure why you would do that.
  25. Qte's? No. Why not have an actual fight that tales skill rather than button mashing? Why not have certain actions (punch, kick, etc...) assigned to certain keys instead?
