DayZ Standalone

Aye, the passage of time in video games is usually 1:1, because that makes it so exciting.

My favourite parts of Half-Life 2 were the bits where you had to roll out your sleeping bag and lie down for 7 hours while the screen faded to black.

:pac::pac:

Has Rocket said when they plan to have vehicles back in the game?

Just take it that we'll be lucky to get them before the end of the year. Probably Q1 2015.

Hey guys, if anybody is interested in a dayz overpoch server, i've been playing on this one for a few months now. It's fully militarised and is great craic, easy to make money on too. If ye join the game give me a shout on this or in game and i'll try and help you get started. Note, i'm not an admin, i'm just trying to populate the server more!

Or else search for "militarised" in Dayz Commander, and you should find one called "v1.0.5.1 alpha cherno overpoch..."

The Standalone has come a long way if it's already got an Epoch Mod.

Lol! I wonder how many would have the bought the standalone on release if you told them there wasn't going to be any vehicles, not even a fúcking bicycle until Q1 2015 at the earliest :pac:

I've been playing the overpoch mod a bit on the CCG servers. Its quite enjoyable, especially lingor. It's strange to be back on lingor again, the last time I played on that map was on IE2 when a few of the lads on here were running their own servers. Seems like a long time ago.

I fecking love Lingor Island, that & Namalsk were the best 3rd party maps. Sahrani is also nice!

The game is still in alpha & has made huge improvements since the initial alpha release. With patches every week the game is only going to get better. The combat & intensity of firefights up at the northwest is as good as the mod ever was.

I suggest you read the image I post again and stay away from alpha release games until you can be patient.

You'll still be showing me this this time next year.

Meanwhile, everybody else will be playing H1Z1.

That sign applies to ALL games in Alpha really. Rust is another game in Alpha, they've gone and completely thrown out the whole game and restarted it from the ground up allowing people to play it bit by bit as they update it love. I along with many others have still gotten hundreds of hours out of it

Hopefully not, I have no allegiances to DayZ, I can't fecking wait for H1Z1 to come out. I'm hoping it will become my go-to game like the DayZ mod was.

Building your own really isn't that hard. There's youtube videos to follow if you need them.

Otherwise you can choose what parts you want and have some websites build with them parts and ship to you.

Best place to ask is post here: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=842

Just fill out this questionnaire and post it in your own new thread in that forum above:

1. What is your budget?
2. What will be the main purpose of the computer?
3. Do you need a copy of Windows?
4. Can you use any parts from an old computer?
5. Do you need a monitor?
5a. If yes, what size do you need.
5b. If no, what resolution is your current monitor and do you plan to upgrade in the near future?
6. Do you need any of these peripherals? [Keyboard/Mouse/Wireless Card/Card Reader/Speakers/etc.]
7. Are you willing to try overclocking?
8. How can you pay?
9. When are you purchasing?
10. If you need help building it, where are you based?

(Sorry DayZ forum people for this non related post )

Been playing dayz over the WiFi the last few months, eventually hard wired it yesterday and I had to keep slowing down for the rest of my gang to catch up! It was weird. I was getting 123mbps!

It was the cause of our demise ad they kept lagging back while I was after activating the zombies by running ahead and they kept dying

DayZ is coming to the PS4. Be interesting to see how that's going to work.

Pretty sure it will be coming to the Xbox One and Ps4 whenever they getting around to actually releasing it. Probably no shorter than 2 years away...

Getting stable 30fps will be quite a challenge, just sayin...

It really won't be, at all in fairness.

I had a stable 30 fps on my old Geforce 540m laptop.

Unless they come through on their engine changes it will, the game is not well optimized and runs badly even on some of the best setups!

I agree that it runs badly in comparison with other engines, but not so badly that getting 30fps is a challenge. I think you're overstating the issue a bit.

Well it was on mostly low settings. :pac:

The PS4 release is 3 years away remember. The game & engine will be in a completely different(let's hope better) place by then. I'm interested to see how this is even playable with a controller

Pretty sure he said he was surprised with how he got from designing a small mod for a game, to on stage at Sony's conference within 3 years.

Timmyctc

He confirmed that its got two completely different teams working on console and PS version and the PS version would basically get what it can handle.
