Yeah I know I know i am jumping into this fully knowing that this is even more of a beta then the beta... .-_-....... anyway yeah this patch fixed fps somewhat it is not nearly as bad as it was by any means But the first major town ran to my fps went down to 28 even with my low settings still set up. I am still hoping for improvements with the fps but I am still also sharing my concern. IF i am not able to run it with my set up Intel i7 4790K 16gb ram 970 4gb I kinda worry about AMD users. Also of course my self, I can't play and shoot anything or defend at anything lower then 60fps. Does anyone else have issues at all with fps? I talked with others in game and they said the fps couldn't be better and until i made it to a couple of the main towns/citys and it dropped like it normally does.

I didn't upgrade for this game but i did go from amd to intel and lets just say If i did it for this game alone it would have been the biggest waste of money EVER. i dont advise it. game was still unplayable still is

I figure amd would struggle but intel shouldn't, I am hoping that there is going to be more improvement with fps

Heya, So I have a Idea with the spawn system if its possible to even be done with this engine. I kinda got thinking on this idea today when I was inside of a building at the NW airfield early today (12/23/14). I was in the Building with the jail and I closed the doors, I was looking for a vest because my vest got ruined because a zombie hit me a couple of times. While I was in there I cleared the whole Area and then went down stairs. I still had not heard anything on the outside so I thought I was good and I am watching the doors for a little while just because I am always very careful when I am in that area. Well I am watching the Door and suddenly someone comes up behind me and kills me. My figure is ether it was a hacker who went through the building or it was someone who Server hops trying to get the best loot. I have no clue ether what gun he had but it sounded Powerful and overpowered to hell with a silencer on it. So to go on. Spawns, If this guy Server hopped then the only solution I can think to fight someone that does this is to Change where they spawn. In which Case I would have to say that that needs to be the case for everyone. So anytime you log off when you log back into the game at any point in time you spawn in a completely different location away from anyone else in the server. Maybe in the middle of the forest or something. Now if you have friends you are playing with, DayZ needs some type of a grouping system or a friend system so that this way You spawn in next to a friend you are joining in on. However you still Spawn in a little ways away from them but still close enough to where you can find them without spending hours on end finding them one night and then waiting for another day to play together to do what you wanted to do the night before but could not because it took way to long to find each other.

So I think Servers when the game actually Releases in a finished state need to be done Differently then they are currently ( I am sorry btw for using Caps randomly I tend to do that and Idk why and I am trying to break that habit) So Servers are not bad, I just think that there are to many of them up. I dislike that and I also dislike that Most of them if not all of them are privately owned servers where people can set the loot amount and all that and still go on to other servers with that loot. Which means one can get on and get all the guns in the world and then spawn into another server and kill people I do not like that. Personally I think Private Servers should not be allowed. They do not work for Survival games and can be cheaply used to get a decent amount about others. I am not talking here about the Locked private servers I am talking about the ones that are open for everyone but owned by someone else. Not only that but it causes more servers to be listed then need to be and slows down loading them all in. On here right now I see prolly 50-100 servers Empty and the top 20 to have people in it There are to many servers and it needs to be Limited. They need Offical servers...about 30 of them and that be it

You seem to have missed where I had the word ABOUT added in that sentence. Im sorry but having over lets say 100 servers and all but 20 are being used that is a huge waste. Secondly as I said these servers some of them can control the loot, If they can not then I need to have explained to me how on these Private public servers that say they have more look Actually have more loot. I have been to Building that are just loaded with loot and I pretty much have everything I need after 30 mins. allowing things like that kill the game Allowing people to go on servers alone Kill the point of the game. It allows them go freely traveling all over and get all the loot in the world and then switch to a different server thats Populated and to then camp and kill players This also ruins the game Maybe there are other ways to actually fix this but This is what i found ruined DayZ the mod and they are doing the same thing with the standalone Another Reason I can not stand Private servers is that they can go off without warning and so If you are here playing for hours on end on this one server setting up a base camp and all that and collecting It happened TOOOOOO god dang much on The mod After Me and my friends Spent hours and days Building it up. After dealing with that crap about 20 times We quit playing because we were sick of it. We could not have fun at all It was not fun spending hours collecting things to build someone just to never be able to use it later because the server went down forever

Steam just does not want to open dayZ at all. I can get around it by going straight into the folder dayZ is in and clicking on the EXE however I am unable to Change to Experimental when ever I feel like playing on it. This Is getting annoying. I uninstalled the game Deleted everything re-installed the game and it still will not open on through steam what so ever. IS there really no fix? I know there is a bugs page but I do not feel like creating another account just so I can post about this bug. I am sorry but I would rather not have a separate site just for bugs.

Nope, I thought ahead and actually went through trying each launch parameter in one at a time and trying to start it up and it did not work with any of them. It updates I guess as I was playing it just through the EXE but ya know it would be nice when the Experimental servers are back up to be able to play on that a bit

Still does it after removing it

Just the Cpu -cpuCount=4 -exThreads= 7

Does not matter ether way Steam Will not Launch the game. I was just saying that IF i wanted to switch from the 2 builds I can not because No matter what I do Steam just refuses to launch the game

So DayZ does not wan't to start up through steam after this update. I was on it last night before the update as well as tried to get on it when the update was happening not realizing there was an update....This was at id say around 5 am est Wed Dec 3rd. So i go to bed and i wake up go through what i normally do, Get on my computer and go to try out this new patch in stable and I can not. What is does is basically just nothing. I click play, Steam lights up in green around my name at the bottom right and then goes back to blue and nothing opens up... I re installed the game, I verified the game. I changed it over to Experimental and then back to stable and nothing....nothing worked. Nothing comes up about battle eye so yeah i do not figure that is the problem

Yeah the only thing I got running is the Nvidia experience , Steam, and Tt Esports mouse software, and Microsoft Security Essientals

Well I found a sort of work around....Open up the file location and click on the exe and run as Admin and it opens up and works.......Makes no since but it seems to be tied to steam in some way....even though by doing it like I said steam still works with it and so does the overlay

anyone?

So I have not seen this anywhere and I am not certain how to even describe it or even if its a bug or something on my end somehow. When I log into the game and This is for both the Experimental and Non Experimental. Upon loading in my char and at first glance everything looks fine. I start to move and notice within the grass where ever I am looking there looks to be a grid of lines that moves as I do and turns as I do. It is just so to where it bothers the living crap out of me and I am unable to play the game. That is the only way I can explain it is that it looks like a Grid of sorts dark thin lines very close together like a graph would be that moves as i turn or as i walk and look around. I do not understand it. I know i seen it once before and stopped playing then to. I wanna say its due to updates with the game but I haven't a clue.

No, Everything is set to default other then the Display,power, Multithreading options and GPU frames render

All well see there is a problem with the fix for this post and that is, Well its for AMD and well I am using an Asus Nvidia 760 2gb card so the problem is not alone with AMD it seems. Also I have tried turning everything down and even installing a fresh driver and along with it my settings in the control panel and nothing worked.

Might nto see it because of youtubes compression BS. so stupid. Anyway yeah illl try a screenshot laters.

link? or term for what it is called

Doing a video uploading it soon

Hello I am Notofthiswar ^-^, Recently I got better internet and so I plan on trying to stream on twitch with a friend of mine RainbowEon. When we will be streaming and what games we will stream will be random So Please Follow us if you are interested at all. http://www.twitch.tv/notofthiswar http://www.twitch.tv/rainboweon

I am not sure how to exactly post anything when it comes to bugs with the game when the bug section is like it is. Its a bit confusing to me though then again I never go on here and read through stuff. This bug that I have to report might have been reported before and it even goes back to the mod. When walking around you can constantly hear sounds, sounds that you should not hear unless there is another player near you but yet they play in the ambient sounds, Soda can popping open, Change sounding like its dropping or being sorted through a lot. A sound of a can of food being Cracked open. And then there is Random Zombie Screams when there are no zombies near you. All this I hear through out the map Mainly when I am away from towns and out in the open fields or something when I am able to clearly see nothing is near me. Sometimes though I do hear it in towns to and it tricks me so much because I keep thinking its another person. Now I just ignore it all together because it plays so much that I just assume its the games glitching Sounds but sometimes I have gotten killed because I thought it was the game creating the sound like normal when it was really a player. Its kinda a pain in the ass and somewhat annoying The next thing though is really annoying with the sound. if I am with a couple of friends All together in one building. I hear a gun loud gun shot but none of my friends do. Then they might hear the shot if whom ever shoots again but then I wont. Not everyone seems to be able to hear gun shots correctly at the same time. So I could be being shot at and never know it because no sound played with the first shot or two. Next Breathing- Run 10 feet and start breathing Heavy as hell. I can not play hardcore servers because listing to the stupid breathing with how loud it is drives me nuts and gives me a headache. The breathing sound needs to be Lowered Dramatically that or an option to lower all these individual sounds our selfs would be amazing. You're Own footsteps Over power others. They are so loud and need to be adjusted. I think also Directional Sound is off. I can hear a gun shot to my left when its on my right sometimes. Idk if maybe the surround sound is busted on this or what but it can make it harder for the ones like myself who require Surround sound to Know where things are and are basically audio freaks. I use sound a lot to hear footsteps of others and so on but this game is sketchy.

I Seriously do not understand how it took the team a little more then a year to only get this far with the game. It has way less then the mod in it besides Buildings and new city's that they added in and clothes. What they focused on that alone?? I would have pictured them being much further then they are currently. What Surprised me more is that zombies a AI that was working good in the mod fails to work in the standalone. I do see now once I got the game that it seems to take them 3 months just to put out a patch to update the game a little bit and it is a tiny patch. I am slightly disappointed with this game knowingly buying it when its in alpha still I expected so much more then....well this. I am also sad they No effort in performance went into this game within that time. Arma 2 ran alright but it for some reason the frame rate depended completely on the server. Id get 60 frames on one and 10 in another it made no sense to me. This, the standalone is not exactly the same way but the performance is bad for my system. I mean being able to play a game like planetside 2 with all the people and moving things all over and getting 60 frames to walking around in a small 10 house town alone and getting 10 frames because the engine is not optimized at all. I can not do any kind of PVP with that frame rate and I can not lower my graphics because the frames do not change at all. I have an AMD fx 6300 OC 4.6 ghz. the game is only using 10-20% of my cpu and thats sad. It should be at 80% and if it was it would be running a lot better. My gpu is a 760 2 gb II oc and then I worry about performance most of all because after so long has gone by Arma 2 never got Optimized. Arma 3 is also Badly optimized but runs better for me then DayZ stand alone however once again there is that weird thing with frames depend on the server and again I do not understand it. So I am worried they the team will just shrug off doing the optimization and be lazy about it like they have been with all their other games. As performance is what hurt the mod for me because I would play on a server and everything would be fine ( this was when i had a 4 core AMD and a 560 ti gpu) and after i got all set up finally on the dayZ mod and got everythign the server would crap out and id go from 40-50 frames to like 8 frames and there is no reason for it.
