DayZ Mod - Crawling Simulator 2012 Dammit rocket what did you break this time? - Games

Guys, I have to admit to something, if you were in the FP Group, then you will maybe know what I'm talking about. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEJkHKUdbyg[/media] [sp] sorry :c [/sp]

Random thing that happened, to me right now. [video=youtube;6zvwS_0cAJk]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zvwS_0cAJk&feature=youtu.be[/video]

Next to every DayZ server (even US133) there's a yellow box with a ? and whenever I join it tells me I'm missing content that's deleted (and it says something like cherner). I've put a clean install of Arma OA and Arma 2 and it doesn't fix it. Fuck. I've also installed it perfectly. I get into the server for two seconds then I'm booted for missing content.

Dagitnabitall. The hatchet's hitboxes are so rubbish, usually you have to slash a zed multiple times to kill them, and even if you land an accurate shot, they hit you first and bleed.

[QUOTE=Muertos13;36585339]are you running Operation Arrowhead as Combined Operations?[/QUOTE] Yeah. I've just deleted Operation Arrowhead and will attempt everything again for the second time on a clean install... Just to make sure. If it doesn't work this time, I literally don't know what else to do. DayZ was showing up top right when I started the game so I really don't know what the problem is.

[url]http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=25308[/url] There was a thread on the DayZ forum earlier today that was doing an analysis of DayZ and its gameplay mechanics. The first point the guy made was that the game is too hard. I've gotten really tired of seeing these complaints, and I'm not the kind of person who simply writes people off as "carebear" or "casuals," so I had this to say: [quote]The game is not that hard... It is not "impossibly difficult." The game simply doesn't hold your hand like every other game in today's industry does. It's actually quite frustrating, seeing how developers have resorted to informing gamers on how every single thing in a game works before presenting it to them. There's no thought required from the gamers: They just read what's on the screen and then do it in mimic like some kind of chimp. I'm not an advocate for exclusive retro gaming nor am I a hardcore retro gamer (Though I love retro games, of course.), but back then there was no "Press A to pick your nose." The game didn't tell you shit, and you had to figure it out for yourself. DayZ isn't pants-shittingly difficult. It just requires a bit of thought and a pinch of patience. I knew literally nothing about Arma2 or DayZ before playing it other than that Arma is a military simulator and DayZ has zombies and bandits. I started playing just after 1.7.1.5 was released (Roughly a week and a half ago?) and I have never had an issue with not having a weapon on spawn or with zombie detection. I'm not the kind of person to call someone a carebear or a CoD kiddie on the grounds that it poorly represents this community. However, the game is not as hard as people make it out to be and I believe that everyone who says so is only complaining because they died a few times and have become inanely frustrated with the game for no reason other than they aren't "super 1337" the minute they picked up the game. Adapt and overcome, I say. Adapt and overcome.[/quote] Seriously, what is it with people getting all upset with a game before even giving it a chance? In older games, the developer didn't tell me what to do, I just had to figure it out by using my head and a little bit of trial and error.

To the two guys that are tossing out flares in Mogilevka: You're so damn lucky you're on the other side of town and I have this AKM and not a sniper...

[QUOTE=Porcupine162;36585555]Copy everything from arma 2/addons/ over to arma 2 operation arrowhead/expansion/addons/, but DON'T replace any of the files.[/QUOTE] Ah! Thank you. Someone told me to do that but I replaced the files, that must have been why I was being screwed over. Thanks a million.

So apparently driving in a tractor through every major city along the coast with your lights on and your horn blaring will not draw any fire..

I'm sorry BKirby, we killed you after letting you live... we didnt know it was you. SERIOUSLY IM SORRY <3

I hope you guys are in Cherno right about now. :v:

Slowly bleeding out in Cher 10k blood and counting. Stuck on top of crane. I ran for 2-3 miles to cher and used 2 bandages. [thumb]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/10790421/fraps/ArmA2OA%202012-07-02%2001-25-51-35.png[/thumb]

Don't post edited screenshots. There's no way you hit 42 FPS in DayZ.

My average fps is 45 so, you are WRONG

I average 70FPS

Apparently word in [url=http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1193927]the Steam Summer Sale 2012 thread[/url] is that Bohemia Interactive announced that Arma2 won't be on sale (if there is a Steam summer sale), but I don't have a source for that.

[QUOTE=Chernarus;36587337][url]https://store.bistudio.com/[/url] Its on sale right now, -25%[/QUOTE] I'm aware of that, but I was hoping my friends would be able to pick it up for like 75% off during the Steam summer sale, but apparently BIS said they aren't going to let it go on sale. (According to what someone said in the thread I linked, but that's hearsay until I find a source.)

I can't fathom why they would put it on sale, enough people have shown they'll pay the current price for it to the point where it's a top seller on Steam without a sale. Now it's on sale on their own website for 25% off, why would they cheat themselves out of more money?

I can't see the world after the restart like 4 minutes ago. Disconnect, Reconnect, and even Restarted still no luck seeing the world. [thumb]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/10790421/fraps/ArmA2OA%202012-07-02%2002-40-16-65.png[/thumb]

Found an MK48 with 350 bullets today, I'm happy

I am still invisible and invincible Seriously I'm worried I'm going to get banned for hacking by mistake Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp

Heh, my birthday turned how to be kind of shitty; only got a skii jacket that I'll wear a total of zero times before I wont need it. Anyway to relieve that disappointment I'm kneecaping people in Elektro with my M24. If I kneecap you, just salute and I'll leave you alone :v:

Looks like night to me.

Is it still possible to Play DayZ using the ARMA2Free on steam? Or Am I going to have to muck around with my Retail non steam copy of ARMA 2?
