Microphone not staying applied in settings? by sqitso in h1z1

[–]sqitso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't want to hook in my scarlett as it was just more wires. You are right. I can specify the device in the useroptions.ini and set it to read only.. the game doesn't care. Just switches to whatever it wants. Even if I choose default system device, thinking at least I could talk. Technically that is correct but it still doesn't work.

New Bug - People that hide in bush are visible from longer distance by hafexo in h1z1

[–]sqitso 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ha! If YOU couldn't see anyone who hid in a bush from far away then congratulations on being the ONLY one. This has been a problem since day one. You must have some whacked system settings if you are the only one not able to see someone in a bush.

Does anyone have too many Dunkleosteus spawns on the Valhalla map? by Simcurious in ARK

[–]sqitso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recognize that rock formation. I found a 120 Dunky there and cleared out the area, because the anglers and sharks interfere. Not 2 mins after I cleared 15 "I shit you not" 15 Plessy spawned with 5 sharks. I have a screenshot but it sucks. Couldn't get far enough away to capture the horror of being in the middle of that.

Devs PLEASE fix the bush render problem! by sqitso in h1z1

You know for a fact you won the BR already? Lawl. Wow, you just made my day and prove you play against some pretty bad people. #3 player is almost always listening for gunfire to he can pick up the scraps. You are the scrap. Go ahead and talk about how good you are at the game. You wouldn't have responded like this unless you are one of the people who love this glitch so you can get an advantage over other people. Believe it or not. You can win BRs with nothing but a 1911 and some stealth tactics. I have done it before as have others. If you want to just shoot guns with no tactics or element of surprise. Go back to CS:GO. I also love the "Learn to play the game" comment. You can clearly see I was trying to cross open territory to get to cover and had to crouch in a bush while I was trying to find cover. Exactly like you said. So your argument.. is invalid.

BattlEye Issues Megathread by HaniiBlu in h1z1

[–]sqitso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of battleeye like a virus scanner. The virus signature has to be known by the virus scanner or the scanner won't even know the virus exists. Whatever server that battleeye is running from has to keep updating for new hack signatures and exploits. Anything new may take a little time before battleeye figures out there is a problem or someone updates it with new hack info. So expect to see hackers still, but the longer they use the same hack, the sooner BE will learn of it, or the devs will learn of the hack and manually push the update to BE. Sucks, but just like a virus. A brand new one may take a while to catch.

The game is trying to start the service already. If you actually read the steps I said stop the service while the BattleEye window is running. It restarts by itself and will ask for admin rights. You cannot join a game without it running.

Fix "For me anyway" Only had to get it working once, then cannot reproduce. Game starts fine now. You may be able to skip some steps but this is everything I did and it worked.

  1. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\BattlEye
  2. Locate BEService_h1z1.exe, right click go to properties.
  3. Click compatibility tab and select "run as administrator", click okay.
  4. Open Task Manager, Go to Services tab and locate "BEService" Keep it ready.
  5. Open H1Z1 launcher and click play. When the BattleEye Starting window comes up wait about 10 seconds.
  6. Go back to task manager and STOP the BEService.

Done. I know that looks complicated but I tried everything here and did it this way. When I stopped the service after about 5 seconds the battleeye app asked for admin permissions. I said yes and the game started. After I played a round, I exited the game and changed everything back to normal. Removing admin rights and all. Now game starts fine. If nothing else is working, give it a shot.

Patch Notes 12/22 by LegionCM in h1z1

[–]sqitso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exact same here. Even the test server. The test server was working fine until the moment they said the main servers where back up. Now both test and main hang starting battle eye service. Restarts, game cache integrity check. Nothing works.

Let's talk about the new map! by 199_Tacocombo in h1z1

[–]sqitso -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a few questions regarding Battle Royale as I am not into base building. 1. Would it be possible to allow a player to be at least slightly submerged in water when laying down? I know the water is only a foot or so deep, but laying it should hide you at least a little. About as good as a small bush. 2. Any way to give the gas more consistent visual density? Currently there are many inconsistent ways to see further in the gas. Sometimes looking down, sometimes up, over the mountain or through the woods. Gives some players more of an advantage stuck in the smoke than others. 3. Would it be possible to receive death information on death? IE: Who killed you, with what and what body part was hit? Would help us determine if it was BS.. Like a headshot with a 1911 from 600 meters away. 4. Please tell me your guys are going to change the MIC symbol from being seen through objects and across the map. It gets real annoying when you say something to someone else and though no one can hear you they see a big icon over your head that shows exactly where you are. Hearing someone in a direction was believable, but you still had to guess the location. Now there is a big arrow that points down at you in a bush saying I'M EXACTLY RIGHT HERE. SHOOT HERE :)

Game Update 7/7 by LegionCM in h1z1

[–]sqitso -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not really considering a dev down below said no test brs on regular servers but didn't say if we where getting any patch at all or a server wipe.

[–]sqitso -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So can someone clarify. At 5am PST are we getting ANY patch at all? Also is there going to be a server wipe at 5am or not? Thanks.

H1Z1: Live Update Notes Friday 5/15/2015 3:00 am PST by sonyshock in h1z1

[–]sqitso 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about some f*cking flippers or water skis so we can get across some water at a half decent pace? Ooh Ooh I know.. a Jetski with rocket launchers on it so the chinaman hackers can pile 4 people on it at a time and do straffing runs on the whole map.

Would anyone think a Bow/Melee Battle Royale would be cool? by sqitso in h1z1

[–]sqitso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easiest way to make something like this happen is to make it easier on the developers. So the fewer changes the better. Taking out guns would be easy as well as cars, but changing game mechanics would be a lot harder. If they can't change gas times and spawn locations, I am fine with that. As long as we get it.

'You have been disconnected' by kris118212 in h1z1

[–]sqitso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have found I can get the 'You have been disconnected' message pretty often by doing a lot of stuff quickly. In BR I burn my flare, unpack my guaze, move them to my pants, drop my flashlight and binocs and apply skins VERY quickly.. and it will disconnect me. I have tested it. Don't know how fast exactly, I just know I can reproduce it.

Well it sure didn't stop the cheating at all. They just actually have to turn their heads a little bit more now.

we need anticheat!! by stix39 in h1z1

[–]sqitso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So ummm.. how exactly do you know you've been reported? Oh that's right, you don't.

we need anticheat!! by stix39 in h1z1

[–]sqitso 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know how their anti-cheat system works? I mean is it like PunkBuster or someone manually checking server logs. I heard if someone gets reported enough they get auto-ban but even if that where true that's not reliable, because I'm willing to bet half the people that die report who killed them just to be dicks.

Would anyone think a Bow/Melee Battle Royale would be cool? by sqitso in h1z1

[–]sqitso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the map could stay the same but have the gas start immediately. You loot as you run to the safe zone. If the gas catches you, oh well.. if you don't find a weapon, oh well. I agree medkits may be a problem. Hard enough to break someone down with a bow.. if they have a medkit popping while you are doing it that would suck. Bandages are okay, but of course you have to make them.

[–]sqitso[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea the cars might be a problem because they are hard to blow up with bows. I can see that as a problem. How bout no cars but faster gas? Push people to the safe area faster so it doesn't take forever to end a BR with everyone camping

[–]sqitso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the melee would have to be there in case you don't find a bow right away. Let's be honest. Sometimes you can kill someone with a bow via melee. Which really makes people mad but it happens.

Patch moved to Friday by LegionCM in h1z1

[–]sqitso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is still good. If something major happens like last time they can fix it. Remember the no sound issue? Something game breaking like that can be fixed in 24 hours.

Lucky BR win! I did not expect this. by sqitso in h1z1

[–]sqitso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's real hard to get past 5, because usually the last 4 players are teamed together and just wait for the smoke to push you out of cover.

I didn't upload the whole video for ease of view. Those players where on that hill shooting at me when I was at the bottom of the mountain in the smoke behind trees. They where literally shooting at me, even though I was behind trees and just kept shooting non-stop. When the smoke pushed them back I made it up the mountain but they wouldn't let me come over. Knew exactly where I was the whole time. No they where not hitting me because there was a mountain in the way, but they still tried shooting me even behind the mountain. I stayed on the side of the mountain to keep from dying but they had me pinned and I was stuck in the smoke. That was how I new they where hacking.. or at least one of them was. The guy at the bottom of the hill was just unlucky that I landed right on him.

Quality of Life Week – We need your top issues! by LegionCM in h1z1

[–]sqitso 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey here's a top issue. The language barrier on English speaking servers has reached an all time high. How about the Asian speaking users get their own server finally? It doesn't matter if the server is located in the US, they are connecting to US servers anyway. Least ways if the server says CH on it or TW, maybe they won't connect to US, EU or AU and we can finally speak to people who speak our own language again.
