housedyourpiece 0 Posted February 8, 2014 Hey, I saw a trailer for this game yesterday and started watching some gameplay videos and it seems really fun. I like the element of having to survive and not really being able to trust anyone. I have never played a PC game, I usually am strictly a console player. I put my specs on the Can I run DayZ? topic and am waiting for a reply. If I am able to, what game do I buy? The supporter edition or the early access edition? I am confused about the difference of the two. Also any bit of knowledge you can send my way would be helpful. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Advent1 126 Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) The supported edition and the early access edition are the same game, but I believe the supporter edition is simply that, to help support the developers in cost. You get no added perks or anything towards your in game character. Edited February 8, 2014 by Advent1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Judopunch 523 Posted February 8, 2014 The game is not optimized right now. People with really good computers are sometimes having trouble, sometimes not. It all depends. Post your specs. However AMD processors really seem to suffer more than intels. The truth of the matter is this is not currently a game, its an alpha. If you dont know what that means I would suggest you wait about 6 months and come back. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaix12 34 Posted February 8, 2014 Yeah post your specs, I am able to run everything on medium to high at around 24+ fps in towns and countryside on a HD4670, intel G620 and 4gb of ddr3 ram. Although cities 'cough' Cherno only 'cough' drop it down to like 6-2 fps because of those god damn skyscrapers everywhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yogi92 50 Posted February 8, 2014 Remember what Rocket (creator) himself said about Dayz's early access: Don't buy it if you want to play and enjoy a game. Buy it, if you want to support developers and help them find and fix bugs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
housedyourpiece 0 Posted February 8, 2014 Thanks for the all the responses, sorry I didn't see them earlier. I posted my specs on the topic that says Can I run DayZ? and I was told i would not enjoy it with the computer I have lol. Maybe some of you can give me a second opinion. Desktop or laptop?

kaix12 34 Posted February 8, 2014 Well um I thought mine was bad, yours is only just as good as my previous computer (exactly same but without GPU) and well you might get away with all low in towns and countryside but cities... Nope... So you can play just stay away from most big loot locations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
