    A mixture of different engines.

    It's actually a branch of the Take on Helicopters version of Real Virtuality.

    I don't ever spawn kill as I think its a dick thing to do. If a guy is clearly unarmed I will let him go. I do understand it is a pain in the arse, has happened to me a lot too. But it is part of the game, nothing should be easy in the game.

    Do what I do, if a guy is camping a spawn town & kills you just re spawn until get the same place again & sneak up on him & kill him. Easy :)

    I generally now run straight to the hills and hide for 5 mins before trying to get some crap in a moderately sized town.

    Which is primarily based on the Arma 2 engine.

    Real Virtuality is the ArmA engine, it's been updated since Flashpoint.

    Its just random loot,it has no use,other than to sneak into peoples backpacks when they're not looking.

    First thing I tried after finding toilet paper was to try TP the shop,I was left bitterly disappointed.

    Yeah, I meant to say it's based on the same version of the engine as Arma 2, I'm nearly sure?

    We can look forward to your body getting blasted into space with no ragdoll at all :) I'm fairly sure that helis will be used as in TOH.

    BAF an PMC are only 3.50 on Steam at the moment, worth it to pick them up for the higher res models!

    Dayz standalone is Arma 2.5 according to the dev blog.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,861 ✭✭✭FlyingIrishMan


    Rocket likes to call it a new engine because of how much code they changed, not sure how true that is but sounds promising.

    you know i have missed this game so much, i just took out 3 guys on a german server from a distance with my aks, i make my way to their bodies, loads of good stuff, sniper rifles etc, then all of a sudden the 3 of them are back on the roof, they shoot me, then i get spawn raped by them teleporting to me for a few minutes, then i get banned from the server...

    WTF people... dont they understand its not personal, its just about the beans...

    Thats how bad dayz has become, can't go on a server that has no hackers unless its whitelisted.

    thats why i left in the first place, i dont mind loosing stuff at all, its part of the game but i hated script kiddies just teleporting all over the map killing everyone,
    but i suppose some people just cant handle the darker aspects of the game and want to make friends with everyone..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 775 ✭✭✭simon360


    A recent enough thing is the thunderdome, it creates a large arena on NWAF and you have to get weapons from the crate in the middle and kill everyone and in 30 secs a chopper spawn. You never win tho, all the hackers just kill you anyway ... :(

    Played on a server with NPCs, was fun, spawned with a silenced pistol and m4 though, with all the gear. Almost died about 10 times despite this.

    I was playing on a server last night with Migs F16 and loads of tanks, great laugh, there were loads of helicopters next to the spawn sites so, when you died it was straight back up to get another jet...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 584 ✭✭✭dizzywizlw


    Can't remember was just a drop in and play.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,203 ✭✭✭Squaredude


    Those damn NPCs can be deadly accurate when they want to be.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 584 ✭✭✭dizzywizlw


    My lag was so bad I missed a Zombie from 3 feet so I bailed.

    Really? Surprised they're not just using 3 seeing as people are already modding it pre-release.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,213 ✭✭✭MajesticDonkey


    Interview with one of the the lead devs. He says "it'll hopefully be out this year" when asked what quarter it'll be released.

    Will the Day Z full game have fast or slow zombies?
