***Dayz: Stand Alone Thread***

Have most people forgot the awesome Zombie ai path finding that was so well worked on during interviews/teasers? What happened!

engine limitations :P ?

I hope with all the steam money made they start outsourcing texture , modeling etc to get things moving quicker like starcitizen are
 
the teleporting back and forth is from the ddos that's been happening to dayz and rust .

losing characters is often when people leave or jump servers often.
 
Meele is shocking only a full on fanboy would say otherwise. Its np for me I've realised the sloppy cluncky mechanics of it all. So can take out Zeds now np But it really is very bad.

It is beyond shocking - I was backstabbing a zombie and I nearly bled out. It wasn't even looking at me and nearly killed me.

I 100% was on the same server. I have heard of this issue going from private to official etc so have stuck to one server for now. Id played on teh afternoon yesterday with my char. Then went for dinner had a smoke did the washing up etc etc. Come back login to the exact same server... I know its the same due to the new message you get as you enter the server.

But when i came back I was on the beach in Bambi gear. Is this pure bad luck on my part? a glitch in the matrix ? or a bug ?

Im being serious here and not trying to wind you up. Im not actually to bothered but my dude was fully loaded, with a fully loaded m4 and around 800 rounds. My char had been alive for 4 days with a few kills to his name.
A lesser man could get pee'd off if thats repeatable some how.
 
Yes it can happen m8, sometimes after a few logins you go back to your old character. Although I have not had that in awhile. Probs cause I wont play it till the PBO's are fixed.
 
yes the patch has fixed rubber banding but the server you go on must be updated or it will still rubber band. i went to go on markers earlier but was 0 on it.
 
Has the patch actually fixed anything guys? Also, what are Public and Private 'Hives'?


it's where your character is stored like a cloud save on steam or origin.

your character can move from server to server and is not server specific.

a private hive would be the character save for that server being unique and not one you can arm up on a 0 player server and then transfer across

AFAIK there are no hives in SA because rocket only lets you rent servers from authorised hosts and does not allow users to run their own dedicated server at home etc
 
I had a sucky thing happen to me earlier. Was just eating in a tower in the airfield, was about to move on, pressed F to climb down, and the dude used his "step-over" instead for some reason, and yep.


Yeah, was slightly ****ed, just lucky I was testing a new livestream bitrate when it happened :o
 
This is still really frustrating.

Decided to give it another shot tonight and ran about for a while, until I reached a huge town with loads of buildings and a factory with an epic red and white chimney. Unfortunately I attracted 2 warping zombies and try as I did, (avoid LOS, stop making noise, going in dark places) they forced me up the roof of the factory where I tried to escape... and jumped off.

Does anyone else find the game blurry?
Also, melee is so messed up it hurts - I somehow defeated 2 zombies in CC with a wrench, but there was no indications that I was hitting it, or it hitting me. Then I bled to death.

yea melee is bad and you also have a chance to get infected every time a zombie hits you. I think it's a 1% chance and there is no cure?

what do you guys use to record anyway? is there anything that will only record the last 5 minutes and keep recording over it? just to catch epic fail bugs?

OMG! blatant duping exploit going down there!

EDIT:

. Please keep in mind that we do not expect to reach Beta status sooner than the end of 2014

We’re going to re-evaluate the roadmap plans in the second half of January but here is a list of the existing top priorities on our to-do list to make DayZ really meet or hopefully exceed your expectations:
  • Server performance, stability and security
  • Animals & hunting
  • Cooking & gathering resources
  • Playable user customizable vehicles
  • Player created constructions in the environment
  • More complex interactions with the environment and crafting options
  • Streamlined user actions and interface
  • Control and animations expanded and improved for fluidity
  • Upgraded graphics and physics engine (including ragdoll, etc.)
  • Support of user mods and more flexibility for user hosted servers and game types

sucks to see "control" and animations being a low priority after they introduce a crapton of stuff.

whats the point of animals and hunting if the controls and animations are gonna be terribad like they are now, probably with animals warping through buildings etc

IMO bottom 4 on that list should be 2-5

Not sure about the last 5 minute thing, but programs such as bandicam are low resource and good quality with low space. My video above was a stream using XSplit.

Best bet is hardware though, I'm ordering a Live Gamer HD tomorrow so I can record without losing some FPS on CPU intensive games.
 
Haha that was funny. Couldnt sleep so figured I would go on a wander. Was near the NE air base (never been there) figured it was worth a look. Looting the military building with the jail upstairs, about to go downstairs and 2 guys appear in front of me. Must have just loaded in. Popped them both and ran away hehe. They had a fair amount of gear as well, which was a shame as my inventory is already brimmed.
