Rawns Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Just seen an updated post from Rocket on the state of the DayZ Standalone: Where is the Standalone Release? I suppose I... | DAYZ Reading though, it sounds likes it's coming on a treat, and the detail they are implementing is epic (Killing a player with a shot to the head in order to steal his night vision goggles could destroy the actual goggles, disease tracking like cholera lingering on clothes a player wears, etc etc). ALso some nice looking screenshots at the top.
LiamH Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Somewhat related one of the developers has finally been released from prison in Greece, they were arrested for taking photo's of military installations Ivan Buchta | PC Gamer

ALso some nice looking screenshots at the top. I don't care if I have to wait a year, it's sounding awesome. I like the fact that the items are now separated rather than just in item piles. May have to dust off the mod and get back into it soon enough, maybe even go back to Chernarus rather than Lingor.
Rawns Posted January 18, 2013 Author Posted January 18, 2013 Seems Rocket has also commented on The War Z: Schildhuhn comments on Before the holidays Rocket asked for harder and more interesting questions if he were to do another AMA. Here are mine... feel free to add yours.

Here are mine... feel free to add yours. That was quite an interesting read. I can see where the confusion stems from, shame Rocket's been getting it in the neck, but I do like the way he's getting stuck in and answering the questions the community are asking.

Yea, he always seems really open and encourages any questions as long as they can be answered quickly by him!
Rawns Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 May have to dust off the mod and get back into it soon enough, maybe even go back to Chernarus rather than Lingor. Did just this yesterday, but on Lingor again. Did you know there are now planes available?! Small 2 man bi-planes. Great fun!

And you didn't think to send me a message on Steam? I are disappoint. I've just got back into TSW, and just finished the main storyline, so I'm ready to start doing the dungeons. So it could be a while before I pull myself away lol.
Theblacksheep Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Got a whitelisted server cos of hackers at every turn on public servers, still looking forward to SA but been playing ARMA2 wastelands much more...
mwbutler Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 +1 for Wasteland rather than Dayz, but if squad mechanics + base building + missions can be modded or added into Dayz SA then that would make me instantly switch games.
Rawns Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) WAT?! And you didn't think to send me a message on Steam? I are disappoint. My bad, I thought you knew! Guess who's flying this bad boy!!! And guess who landed it safely...by touching down in the middle of the runway, going into a blind panic as the fence at the end of the runway was less than 100ft away while still going at 60kph and ejecting only to fly 100ft forwards in mid air and die by crashing into the fence. @MK-2 got to the plane and let me know it was fine and I would have survived if I stayed in it!

Rawns Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 Good session last night @DMcGuigan How long do you reckon Carbon has spent with his M107 scope on that radio tower?!
DMcGuigan Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Heh, I don't even want to guess how long he's been there.. You know what Carbon's like @Rawns, he'll have been there all night if he needed to. I have a feeling when we next see him, Mr. French will be in a shallow grave.. or an impact crater from the Post-Death fall

I have a feeling when we next see him, Mr. French will be in a shallow grave.. or an impact crater from the Post-Death fall I'm guessing the chopper is on auto-hover in front of the tower and he's hopped into the gunner chair!

That really wouldn't surprise me.. I may go hunting for Allcatrax tonight, that snipe last night was a low blow. Edited January 25, 2013 by DMcGuigan
Rawns Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 That really wouldn't surprise me.. I may go hunting for Allcatrax last night, that snipe last night was a low blow. Well, I'm gonna be on later so can join the hunt. I want to get Tom too! Had him in my sights, should have took the shot. We've got a new base now in the usual spot with some gear so can fast track you there with a chopper ride?

Haven't seen anyone for a while, just hiding in the corner of a shed when I logged out.

I'm sure Carbon can oblige with a lift.

Fleetwood Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Looking forward to this coming out! I'd play DayZ again but the bugs kept annoying me and I was all alone
Rawns Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 Looking forward to this coming out! I'd play DayZ again but the bugs kept annoying me and I was all alone Well there are now five of us playing on a Lingor server, I think you need to get back in it! @DMcGuigan - Pack should be easy to find. Get geared up then we can do a 5 man strategic sweep of Calamar and the surrounding area. We have enough fire power. Or we can do 4 man with air support overhead. Either way, should be enough to make people think twice about attacking us or hanging around the area for too long.
L3OUGH Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I hate all of you. I really want to start playing DayZ but don't have a laptop or PC with enough beef to run it well. I really don't have the funds to buy or build one either being on a apprentice wage! Booooooooooooo

I really don't have the funds to buy or build one either being on a apprentice wage! Booooooooooooo To be fair, my PC is borderline for running it. I really want to upgrade as it's almost 6 years old now. What kind of spec is your machine?
L3OUGH Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I was ripped off when I brought this, however I purchased this before I had any real IT Knowledge, but hay. Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit AMD Turion II Dual-Core Processor P520, 2.3GHz, Level 2 cache 2MB 4GB DDR3 (2x 2048MB) RAM 500GB SATA Hard Disk Drive 7200rpm LightScribe SuperMulti DVD±R/RW with Double Layer Support HP TrueVision Webcam with Integrated Digital Microphone Integrated 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN 802.11 b/g/n Bluetooth wireless networking 5-in-1 integrated Digital Media Reader for Secure Digital cards, MultiMedia cards, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro or xD Picture 15.6in diagonal High-Definition LED HP BrightView Display: 1366 x 768 ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470 Graphics Sound Altec Lansing speakers Plus my Internet Connection is poor and probably wouldn't help in terms of playing DayZ but hopefully that will change soon.
L3OUGH Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Plus it had 3GB RAM when I brought it not 4GB.
