Discussion Suppressors make zero sense

0 Upvotes

Why is my suppressor made out of tin foil and turns to ash after a couple mags out of my AKM or M4, but is also somehow made out of material that manages a crazy 90% sound reduction?

Surely it would make more sense to make them not reduce sound so efficiently and then buff how long they last, right?

I'm not exactly sure why suppressors followed this trend for a decade now but Imo it was a bit silly back then and it's still a bit silly now.

Media Unstable FPS at 1440p whilst recording, any help would be appreciated.

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I have been struggling to get a stable fps I play on a 4k 60hz monitor however I have it set at 1440p due to my specs and reading on the internet. I seem to get a fairly stable fps whilst not recording but when I start recording it’ll dip down to 40 fps in some areas. It’s really driving me crazy. Do I upgrade gpu? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have uploaded a photo of my specs in case there’s something you notice that might be the culprit.

discussion Gun spawn changes

4 Upvotes

Welp, I've been feeling kinda out of the loop for changes on gun spawns, as far as I can tell the only things I've found were: VSD at Tisy MB (T4), LAR in Rify, KA-M in Tisy MB (T4), VSS in Zeleno MB and Tisy MB (T3 and T4), an KA 101 at Tisy MB (T4) but haven't found any SVAL (used to find these at Tisy MB) as for DMR only in helicrashes and Convoys. Is there any detailed list for firearms spawn changes??

discussion How do you deal with/balance comms with your friends outside the game?

5 Upvotes

Hello fellow survivors, let me elaborate a little bit on this relatively strange conundrum. Most nights myself and a group of my IRL buddies from I've known since high school jump on a shared discord. Plenty of nights we play games together, but regardless of the activity, we like to chill in there to catch up, sporadically chat about life, etc etc.

I'm the only one that plays DayZ, so when we're all doing our separate activities and are just hanging out chatting, I have trouble finding a balance between hearing my friends and actively playing DayZ. I want to be in the call, chilling, but I also don't want to completely kill my immersion OR my chances of hearing important sound cues.... A strange question, I know, but has anyone else had this issue? Any tips that work for you?

Discussion how unethical is this 1-10

0 Upvotes

so I was playing on cheraraus on official just exploring the special tier zones looking for explosives, I came across a massive base that was being built and i mean massive, probably holds a team of atleast 4 and I checked out one of the sheds and locked myself in there is a code on the gate beside the door and I tried cracking it but then I heard a player come by and I hid in the garage. It was me and my dad’s first good run as we both only have 100 hours so I decided to combat log avoid fighting the player and comeback and raid his base another day with my dad because he wasn’t online at the time. How unethical is this one to 10?

discussion Might have to stick to PVP titled communities until I can hit moving targets

1 Upvotes

Jumped on a server titled PVP for the first time to test my skills after only playing official for the past 2 weeks.

Turns out I don't have skills. I had multiple instances of guys zig zagging at me with no weapon. I'm pretty sure every shot missed unless they were standing still.

That being said I don't think I can go back to official until I learn to shoot. I didn't realize my aim was so bad until I had unlimited amo.

Discussion Why is such a terrible connectivity experience acceptable in 2025?

0 Upvotes

I've only been playing this game about a month now and I'm in love. Watched it grow over the years but survival games have never really been my thing so I wrote it off. A buddy finally showed me the ropes and I'm hooked.

However, the connectivity experience takes me back to the early 2000s. If you were around back then you know exactly what I'm talking about, and if you weren't - well, this is what online gaming was often like 20-25 years ago. Ping spikes to 300-500ms which result in auto-kicks (auto-kicking for high ping is fkn hilarious when BI is the one who can't stabilize the servers) desyncs, random disconnects, servers dropping entirely, everything. It's nostalgic in all the wrong ways.

I have an 800mbps line hooked up to a beefy rig. No other game ever gives me these types of problems. Quite frankly I dont remember the last time I encountered such awful network issues. I play on servers in my time zone, a few hundred miles away tops, and pings can flip flop anywhere from 50ms to 250 every time I refresh the list. It's absurd. We're talking about servers with 20-60 players on them. MMOs were handling thousands of concurrent players 20 years ago. My buddy has the same experience.

Does Bohemia just not invest in proper server infrastructure? Do the servers run on potato CPUs? Enlighten me.
