DayZ (Mod for ARMA II: OAH) Clubhouse

[brandonwh64]

BS Brandon. I wouldn't have installed it if you said you were not sure.

LOL whatever you tell yourself. You are full of shit /end of story

 

[MT Alex]

I wouldn't doubt it if the standalone peters out. People are getting their fix right now, and things won't seem so fresh and exciting when the big hope finally drops. I know I'm not really excited about it, I'm having plenty of fun with this version, especially the newer mods and modes that won't be included in the second coming. I could see a sizable and very involved portion of the DayZ community sticking with the free mod.

Whatever. Its the last time I listen to your BS.

I just came in here to share a good zombie book with you guys and I get the third degree and called a liar. Keep your shitty game.

Yea I understand that as well. It will take some objectives to make it more interesting other than survive zombies and eat beans.

Whatever. Its the last time I listen to your BS.

Shit I stopped listening to your BS for a long time. You not listening to any of ours is no different.

Not "any of ours". Just you. Countless times I've stuck up for you. Not anymore.

Agreed. Loot always seems to be my covetous drive for playing as of now. Objectives would be nice.

I honestly do not care if that is the way you feel.

I do not wake up every morning asking myself "How can I make ben happy today"

Guiez i need to poo

poo?

I do like the objectives like wasteland but they are geared towards everyone doing the same objective and when this happens you just get pvp when you get to the location. In sense that is good to fight for something but when you have a whole server on one target then it gets dumb. Maybe multiple objects at one time so not everyone is going for a specific target.

First video gameplay of dayz standalone

The latest dev update from Dean “Rocket” Hall and the DayZ Standalone team takes you on a fifteen minute video tour of the game’s new content and systems. There are no zombies or combat – many of the game’s features have been disabled or obscured – but you do get beans, a swamp and a fashion show. So still a pretty thrilling time, all told.

There’s a lot of information packed between characters twirling for the camera. Here’s a bullet point list of new stuff to be gleaned:

The front-end has been dramatically simplified from Arma 2. Players can now quick join their last visited server and the options screen seems to strike a nice balance between simplicity and flexibility.
Clothes will have individual inventory slots. A standard pair of trousers can hold around six small items. Clothing also includes body armour and stab vests.
New location ideas were suggested by Bohemia Interactive’s Ivan Buchta while he was being held in Greece. They include a swamp.
Utes – the small island from the original Arma 2 – has also been added. That location was suggested by 4chan, of all places.
Loot no longer spawns in piles, but is instead scattered throughout buildings and behind objects. The aim is to make players feel like they’re actually scavenging for items.
That loot is now spawned in by the server, not the client. The hope is that this will stop hackers. Items can also be found out in the open world, hidden inside wrecked vehicles.
In the coming weeks the team plan to refine the inventory and put some major work into the game’s crafting system. As for the game’s switch to external beta testing, Rocket says, “There is still no timeframe for when this will happen, but we’re committed to continuing with these development updates and blog posts.”

sounds like decent progress. starting to get more interested.

 

[brandonwh64]

I finally got to watch the whole video and just to see him move around and how detailed the houses are and loot spawns is just amazing coming from the mod side. Just those updates alone blow the mod out of the water. This is good to see that there has been huge strides to the layout of the game.

 

[AphexDreamer]

Standalone is looking great. Can't wait to play it.

i am honestly surprised people still have the patience to deal with this game's BS

Such as? Bugs? I am not in defense mode but just wondering what your perspective is on "BS"?

Also have you tried the update that was released yesterday? huge performance increase I had seen.

The premise is good. A proper Zombie survival game focussing on 'survival' as opposed to mindless running and gunning.

I quit playing once i realised zombies were no longer threatening. Instead it was just idiots sniping from miles away. Now that makes the game absolutely bollocks.

If the powerful weapons were in the hands of NPC military characters then that would have been better but once people got their hands on the powerful stuff it became a run of the mill, spawn die type of thing.

You and MM should go find a quiet corner together. Don't forget the chocolates and Binaca. MM isn't as elitist in his trolling though, he doesn't come off like such a debutante.

 

[brandonwh64]

Mail man can troll with the best of them but he has an art about it that is surprising. I would like to hear easy's opinion on the subject. He was all about this game way back and I enjoyed gaming in dayz with him.

 

[Easy Rhino]

i am not trolling. i played this game for far too many hours with MT, erocker and the rest. i stopped playing because we couldn't agree on a server to play on and when we did random people would login and hack it and kill us and steal our stuff. the bugs at the time made the game slow to load and would really lag graphics. i am sure all of that has improved but i am honestly surprised people are still playing it after all of the mess.

Its a mod of a game that was already bad and end the end you could not expect much but with the announcements of the standalone and its improved server structure to prevent hacking *doubt it will stop it entirely* sounds promising. Even though there are hackers and trolls, I still love to play cause of the suspense of arma II. I actually took a short break from DayZ and started playing waistland with the TPU guys and wished you would hop in and join us to murder people.

 

[MT Alex]

Hell, in those days it would sometimes take 40 minutes just to find a damn server that worked and was preferably daylight. That was frustrating.

Stuck on loading................

I connected last night testing the new patch and it connected pretty quick to a heavy populated server.

 

[AphexDreamer]

I'm trying to get a refund of Warz because hackers are very prominent and ruining the game. Stand alone servers would help but I don't know anyone that would host one.

I'm really hoping that the Dayz standalone will be better about cheaters/hackers, else this genre is doomed...

 

[brandonwh64]

We can only hope on the hacking part. I know they are taking the server side of things when it comes to gameplay like other MMO's do such as WOW. The way it was easy for hackers is that arma II sends instructions to your PC then you send it back.

You really have no reason to post in this clubhouse. Please don't.
