klesh 2423 Posted October 25, 2013 Yes. Thats the whole network bubble thing they've been working on for awhile. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DemonGroover 8836 Posted October 25, 2013 I think they are pretty confident that things will be better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deviant (DayZ) 43 Posted October 25, 2013 The main reason they're doing standalone is because they need to re-purpose the arma engine in order to make it run effectively with lots of zombies and loot. Arma 2 doesn't like having thousands of items and units spawned in at once. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creature 1189 Posted October 26, 2013 I'll go with "Yes! But, exactly how much is yet to be determined." :thumbsup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colekern 1364 Posted October 26, 2013 They've estimated it will be on-par with Arma 2 singleplayer due to fewer CPU calculations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AbhChallenger 4 Posted October 26, 2013 The engine started from the Take on Helicopters source code so while that is a bad benchmark to use considering how much they have likely changed that for the DayZ engine. It is likely closer to that than Arma 2 in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strongtent 74 Posted October 26, 2013 Any progress made from what we have now will be a great relief. Then maybe I can throw some change down for a nice graphics card come the holiday season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted October 26, 2013 I'd be extremely surprised if there isn't a good improvement. As I keep saying in these kinds of topics though, remember that true optimisation takes place further on in development. I still think/hope people will be pleasantly surprised though, we will see... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King of kong 1117 Posted October 26, 2013 Thanks for the helpful ansers. I got 10 FPS in Cherno and Elektro in ArmA 2 and 5-6 FPS in DayZ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 1631 Posted October 26, 2013 Thanks for the helpful ansers. I got 10 FPS in Cherno and Elektro in ArmA 2 and 5-6 FPS in DayZ.OK I wouldn't wait that big increase. If you can't run Arma 2 in the editor with decent fps don't wait to run DayZ with decent fps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indeed. If you look at PlanetSide 2 for example the severe game breaking optimisation issues were taken care of in beta and now (a good 6 months+ after final release) they're looking to finish the optimisation process and really get the game running faster. I think DayZ will be better optimised than ArmA 2, but I wouldn't expect any miracles when the alpha build is released. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gummy52 57 Posted October 26, 2013 In theory it should be much, much more efficient. In practice... who knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
