Recommended Posts

No need for fog in a game like dayz.

 

This aint silent hill.

So yeah, an intrepid Reddit poster has linked these images, which are present on the new DayZ website.

Looks good. Wondering if this is going to add a better sneak element as well?

Yeah, not sure what the utility of his comment was. That's like saying, "Psh, zombies? This isn't Resident Evil."

 

The lengths people will go to, to dismiss something so innocuous is beyond me.

I would assume so, so long as a zombie's (not only the player's) sight is impaired.

 

The only thing I think needs work is the sun bleeding through everything.

OMFG yes.

 

So, now I can loot without fear of a sniper shot in the right weather. :D

This looks fantastic!! I love the atmosphere and general feel this gives DayZ!! (I use to love the fog back in Breaking Point for ArmA 2, although it was very different and didn't really feel natural. This on the other hand is amazing!!)

 

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

:D  So every video game that has fog is a Silent Hill ripoff? Or just everything in general? So, I live in Silent Hill?? (We got fog frequently where I live, and on many parts of the planet too.)

 

They're aiming for a natural environment, so being so close to the coast, it's only logical to have some fog. Anyway, I love Silent Hill, so thanks for your comment, you made me remember good times! B)

If anything they need to figure out a way to glass over that sun better during fog.

Thanks, didn't feel like scouring through all of them so I just posted the link to the Imgur gallery.

 

As an aside, two things were raised in the Reddit discussion that I think are worth mentioning - these could be "bullshots" and that, in order for them to put in fog, I was under the impression that they'd have to have ripped out the renderer.

Gibonez, I learned to respect you, but this post here is unnecessarily negative.

 

Well made fog is realistic, it is atmospheric and surely many folks would enjoy sneaking through zombie and bandits infested towns under the protective cover of fog.  

 

Fog would be problem only if it occured way too often or was implemented in horrendous way.

What does fog have to do with Silent Hill? So should there be no rain also?

He's been on some agenda to remove the infected from the start.  Myself and other have explained to him there is already a game that he's looking for and it's called Wasteland on Arma 3.  For some reason he wants DayZ to have no infected and just be a a pvp fuckfest

Lets not kid ourselfs zombies or no zombies the game will always be a pvp fuckfest.

 

Let's not pretend like zombies add some magic to the game they are merely janky sources of frustration and a complete waste of time.

 

The game could have 100k zombies in cities and people will still ignore them and waste their bullets on people.

I hope they're attempting to implement ARMA III style fog, vice Breaking Point style which was client-side and awful.

Now that I like looks like volumetric fog.

 

I can get behind volumetric fog that is affected by the player, explosives, vehicles and movement.

 

might as well post the video

Have you seen the navmesh pics? Surely arma 3 mods would be the things to play if you don't want zombies?

Personally i can't wait for the pvp 'fuckfest' to die down a little...
