Glowing White Orbs?

[Phizzle 0]

Hello, I am a new DayZ player and I have a quick question. Why is it on some servers I can see a glowing orb around where the Z are, even through walls? Makes things a little too easy IMO, and I'm not even good at this game in the least. How can I tell which servers have this and which do not?

I've noticed this as well, not sure why. Does make things very easy though and should be fixed.

It's called peripheral vision. It's supposed to be in the game.

The game is centered around realism and although in real life we don't visually see white dots floating around we do see things in our peripheral vision often without even trying.

This game is trying to mimick that, or so I'm told :).

Yes I was actually going to ask about as this, little circle spheres that appear on the edge of the screen.

I find I get it on all servers but only after I have been logged on for like 10 minutes, I can walk towards a town and I can see white spheres appear at the edge of the screen, the larger they are the closer the zombies are and the opposite obviously. Can be unbelievably helpful when one is crouching behind a door not making a noise, though seems a bit unfair to have though, I'm not batman or anything.

Edit: As soon as I have looked up "peripheral vision" on the tubes I found this

Interesting, why does it seems to be on and off at times?

Server side.

I noticed that too and basicly those are zeds that are not in your field of vision and the bigger the white dot is the closer the zeds are to you. It is kinda cheap and basicly need to be removed.

It is disabled on many veteran/expert servers. It's not something that needs to removed, choose a server of your liking! It can be hard to find, though!
