agreed, sometimes I got hit while I should not have been because I was circle-strafing.

not a bug if you are pressing and holding the throw item key to run uphill (exploit). two handed items can now be thrown as well, just as the changelog says.

agreed, melee is kinda whack.

While I do support a better stealth system I also think the view distance of the zeds is too far (especially if they respawned. the "original" ones seem to see you only from around 100m, respawned ones from around 500m)

works for me. check the content of the mag. they seem to be somewhat bugged so that they display rounds while in truth they are empty.

no such thing as an anti-buttet vest in the game.

to fix that you have to drop the container item (backpack/jacket/pants) and pick it back up. the locked slot bug is then fixed.

the known issues in the changelog state clearly:
"Persistent items & STORAGE are DISABLED server side pending hot fix to stable branch"

http://store.steampowered.com/news/?appids=221100

same here

same goes for ammo boxes, yellow cases etc. if I drop a full ammo box other players can't see the content!

you realize with this system if you are unhappy with the server performance and you switch server you will have to wait 5 minutes and spawn in a random location on the new server, right? I doubt you would like it yourself.

happens to ALL kinds of mags, clips, speedloaders etc

you might have joined a different hive, happens to me all the time

Confirmed. Same goes for everything else that is edible or drinkable!

chem lights are waaaayyy to strong now. one single chemlight lights up a building like disco lights. It's insane.

you are not supposed to be able to run back to get your stuff. you got killed and now instead of poor dead Peter your are fresh awoken Jack.

neither do tainted helmet windshields. nor do the helmets reduce sound loundness. the aurora borealis is also not visible at night. and cows are not milkable. and I can't cut off a rabbits foot. darn it!

in your rendering options set your Postprocess Quality to either Low, Very Low or Disabled. Should get even sharper if you set "Edge Smoothing" to any FXAA setting below "High".

Also the blurryness and color loss are indications of your health. Stay hydrated and energized and keep your blood level high to have a sharp, clean and colorful picture.

See Merino's youtube videos on how the health system works for more detailed information. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9YSGX22B6Z3k9-hJzJcz4w

yep. I always pray I don't get killed while I'm so vulnerable WALKING down the stairs.

yeah, it's terrible. it's called headshot. for less realistic deaths play COD. have you seen that last Tom Cruise movie where he dies a million times, often very surprisingly? yeah, death can occur so quick leaving you clueless.

also it's not random. you are exposed like a mazafaka up there. no wonder you keep getting sniped.

the only thing you can do is be smart about where you move (think about your exposure - ask yourself "am I going to be a snipers breakfast if I move there?") and be very, very, VERY healthy before you are attacked. eat a lot, drink a lot. always. even when it says you are energized and hydrated in bright green. also study how the health system works. there's a few youtube videos out there made by a german guy called Merino who explains how it works in a bunch of videos. here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9YSGX22B6Z3k9-hJzJcz4w/videos

known bug, move along. dev's are devils, they like to keep us paranoid.

Agreed, controls are annoyingly un-survivalist now.

agreed, I'm not fond of the reorganizing either. I like to have a system in my inventory order too.

I say do your thing and listen to the community later

Rico is right. The world around you does not tilt if you tilt your head, so why should this be the case in DayZ. As a matter of fact Ghost Recon and CoD4 are the only ones who get it wrong.

The Mosin definetly can have a bipod, as this picture proves:

Addiotionally one can mount a rail at the sling holes as well, as this picture proves:

I think 45 PROS vs 3 CONS should be a clear message from the community. Bring it back please!

I recommend you read the message that pops up when you load up the game. You will lose your character many more times, better get used to it and man up. The magic word is: ALPHA.

that's the northern edge of the map, dummy.

hell no! I'd slap you for even suggesting this.

lol@Snake.

a clan with 170+ dayz players? - you're doing it wrong!

pretty sure every streamer is against this.

use the friends tab to have friends join on you.

yeah only REGULAR servers allow 3rd person perspective. HARDCORE servers do not.

glad to see the anti-cheat software works :)

agreed, it's a bit off in long ranges. I understand wind is now somehow in the game - whether it is limited to cloud movement or includes ballistics trajectory manipulation - I don't know.

with the audio loudness negative effects it might get tricky, people are going to be talking to other people never knowing if they can hear them or not. unless is minimal and adds interior/exterior reverb for the masks.

Yeah, this is a SURVIVAL game. Not a chicken-out game. Tho I guess there's nothing wrong with Quazoosls suggestion to do it when you have a gun or a knife (harakiri style only tho, no wrist slitting please!)

yeah this is so unrealistic. people never have broken their legs when they run up or down some stairs. tztztztzt.. (please read soome intense sarcasm here)

high blood level, high health level, lots of pristine items, tactical vest.. yup absolutely possible. game characters are not as weak as you may think. which is awesome because it actually can save your life from scum backstabbers like you. :P

you might wanna look up how the health system actually works http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7-m7Hjc8zk

your solution is a joke. every combat logger will be able to exploit this. if they are under fire they will move a little bit, around a corner or w/e and start the countdown. the way it is is much better. too bad you died, but seriously, stop whining.

use the search function and get over it, this is well known.

desynch after joining is ABSOLUTELY NORMAL. you are synching to the server's changes, closed/opened doors, items dropped/taken/consumed etc.

I put it on too (before the last patch), and it said I wear the burlap sack on my head, but it didn't go dark at all. Everything was normal.

wow, this yelnik guy comes across like a real dick, all demanding and whatnot.

glad he's dead.

can't confirm this. I always get stuffed and never puked unless I kept eating a bunch more.

of course it's geometry. what else would be that cpu-intense? all you have to do to prove it is change the object quality settings from very low to very high and watch the fps drop with fraps or any other fps tool running.

@itchypantz: you wouldn't even see the difference. textures stay the same.

@R834: why have a SINGLE concrete block render 8 triangles PER SIDE (= 48 triangles total) while you can have the same block rendered with 2 triangles per side (= 12 triangles total). Of course it doesn't make a noticeable difference with a single block but the sum of ALL objects with unnecessary vertexes and extra triangles do cause slowdowns. I've made complex models of buildings myself (22000+ vertices) and I see how rotating the models becomes slower and slower the more detail I add to them. And we're not talking about a single model here, we're talking a huge amount of objects that shape the environment. It sums up.

the game has realistic moon cycles. it will be full moon about once a month.

I noticed this, I had to reconnect to a server and I noticed how a zombie was attacking the spot where I logged out/logged back in.

well good luck finding your sh#t when you need it.

Morphine also cures moaning

So where are the suggestions?

+1000000

will that boost your otherwise miserable ego to be able to brag about the days you survived or why is it of any relevance to you?

how about a counter that shows you how often you died while we're at it?

hm? would you like that?

just wondering.

EDIT note: by the way, the word you were looking for is "alive", with a "v", not an "f". derives from the word "living", an adjective defining a state or set of properties of a subject. not deriving directly from the word "life", a noun with an entirely different meaning. don't they teach you any grammar in school nowadays?

There is no shame in admitting you were server-hopping to find more stuff. ;)

Go to the wall next to the ships hallway, press V to vault (not the jump tho') and exit the server when you are mostly through the wall. Reconnect and you're back in the accessible area.

not a bug. you are quick-accessing the protector case and putting the gun in your hands.
