TimKuchiki 9 Posted August 4, 2012 Please Please Please release a hotfix to take away the artifacting. We can't play at all, and its really frustrating to know your trying to add content that will need testing by a private group before you let the public play without artifacts. Would it be that bad to put out a hotfix like 1.7.2.4.5 so we can actually play without ice berging? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThatGuyCalledReptile 314 Posted August 4, 2012 It's not hard to avoid it. Just stay away from the areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimKuchiki 9 Posted August 4, 2012 No. BobDole. What I don't get is he has the problems fixed but he wont just release the fix. He has to add content as well to it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lonrem 62 Posted August 4, 2012 No. BobDole. What I don't get is he has the problems fixed but he wont just release the fix. He has to add content as well to it...No, he's got to put it through a closed test so more things don't break. Would you like dead bodies to no longer cause artifacting but suddenly trees do? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lonrem 62 Posted August 4, 2012 if he has to do all that dont say its going to be released the 1stBecause things /never/ take longer than anticipated. Note that he did not say it was going to release on the first. He said that it was the 'target date'. If you've paid something for DayZ, please, feel free to be entitled. Until then, continue testing the alpha-phase mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amaROenuZ 144 Posted August 4, 2012 No no. You paid thirty bucks for Arma 2. You didn't pay a dime for Day Z. Huge difference. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I were him people like you speaking on what I should be doing would make me postpone it just in spite of you and others like you. You didn't pay a penny for DayZ, you paid for ARMA 2. Secondly, the game does not qualify as unplayable because there are a few areas you can't go to without some issues. Artifacting on barbed wire has been around for weeks, but it was always a rather rare occurrence (at least for me) until the latest patch that caused the new problems.

thekillingsmiley 18 Posted August 4, 2012 Me and a friend of mine have any easy fix for the glitch. Just switch you Video Memory setting.EX: My Video Memory is set to Default. The artifacts start going all crazy on my screen, and I just switch my Video Memory setting to Very High. Later on I run into some more artifacts doing the dance of the gypsies on my screen and switch my Video Memory from Very High to Default.Give it a shot. Works great for me and my friend.

hatfieldcw 184 Posted August 4, 2012 It's tough to avoid those areas, since they're often right near the best places for a new spawn to go to gear up. I brave it in Cherno every time I die, since I won't even try heading north without at least a little morphine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last time I checked you can't play this "MOD" with out paying $30 for Arma II.. right?! Nothing against DayZ or Rocket, but the whole you didn't pay for this mod is BS. Look at steam sales an old game like this is #1 why? Because of this mod so if you stop and use that skull of mush on your shoulders you would come to the conclusion that most did pay $30 dollars for this mod.. Oh and your " If I was like him shit" stop you aren't like him. Your Spite is amazing! Edited August 4, 2012 by solus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Spite is amazing!that honestly doesn't make any sense... if you pay money for something then you expect a level of service in return. however, AFAIK rocket didn't receive a commission from your purchase of arma2 & arma2OA. therefore he's not obligated to do anything for you. what you're saying is like giving a random person $30 of your money, then complaining to a totally different person that you're not getting the service you paid for.... nonsense.

I said you need to take your entitlement attitude and shove it. I could care less who is happy about a bug being fixed, I find it just plain disrespectful for you to even type the words that Rocket and his team SHOULD be doing something, respect your elders kiddo Rocket should be doing whatever the hell he wants to do. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoronToTheKore 57 Posted August 4, 2012 Go into video settings, click advanced, then change your video memory to any setting other than the one you're currently using. It's a temporary fix that most people have been using. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Spite is amazing!Nope you can't play the FREE mod DayZ without PAYING for Arma 2, therefore you paid for Arma 2, NOT DayZ, you spent the money with the intention of playing DayZ but that doesn't change the fact that you didn't pay for DayZ no matter how many insults you throw my way.

-AoXo- 24 Posted August 4, 2012 It's not hard to avoid it. Just stay away from the areas.Unfortunately for me the areas that have it are important areas such as towns and airfields. I have found that lowering my 3D resolution below my screen resolution helps but then the game just ends up blurry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
