So it;s night time and I have no items - Help...

Do we need to add more servers for this game? I see we now have 6 NZ servers x50 slots as Orcon has decided to host 4.

This has been me, every single time I've played! Apart from a small half hour stint today, but that didn't last long thanks to some tosser.

Yea, more servers would be a charm.

I know there has been a bit of discussion about it in other threads, but has it been figured out yet how to change the game time? such as set it back a few hours so it gets dark around, 1 a.m(irl time)

This. Orcon servers are morning time when I get home from work.

Be good to enable vehilces and change time in GetSome ones.

and if it is not disabled......get rid of name tags popping up and if you appear on in game map. Other wise its too easy for peeps to find each other. Having vehilces enabled will also give some of us something to focus on because many are all kitted up and looted out with not much else to do expect kill wayward survivors to pass the time.

I found out Internode (or games.on.net) have Aus servers that are day for some time at real life night time so I've played on them a couple nights after work. I probably would play on GetSome servers if it was day at that time.
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: .osiRiS on May 30, 2012, 06:03:21 pm
I don't know if it changes much or not but I have shifted the servers time by 3 hours so 11pm it should get dark rather than 8pm. Will see if it actually works though.

I'm trying to get rocket to post on the forums but understandably he is very busy. I have also asked about the vehicles but as HandofBlood posted it will eventually come in an update.

Edit : Possibly take effect 2mrw or when I restart the server.

Night time can be very good if your looting by yourself and want to be sneaky. It might be in the tips thread already but to see in the dark all you need to do is turn you gamma and brightness all the way up and put HDR on very high, You basically have black and white vision. Might seem lame to some but ALOT of people do it

Hit the motherload, a little bit further I found a big pack, took so fucking long figuring out how to switch my stuff that someone managed to sneak up on me and kill me from somewhere.
I seemed to lose stuff transferring? It just went into the void?
Whoever did the pack UI needs a slap.
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: BushySB on May 31, 2012, 11:56:39 am
Dam that is one stacked deer hut lol. Yes the pack system is retarded but you just need to get to know how to use it and what you can and cant do. takes a while and a few lost guns but you get there
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: EuphoricBliss on May 31, 2012, 12:00:39 pm
what a haul!

Don't transfer anything from your inventory/backpack into something you're looting.. I've had issues with items disappearing while doing this. There is also a bug where if you pick up stuff/heal while the red chain icon is on screen and you log off before the red chain clears, your stuff won't be in your inventory/the heals won't have taken place when you log back in.
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: weap0nX on May 31, 2012, 01:09:14 pm
I usually pick up the new pack which drops your current one and then rearm(spelling) at my old one which transfers everything. Have not lost anything so far by doing it this way

Emrico, I drop my existing pack first, look at the new pack, select take pack, then look at the old pack and transfer items across (while opening the new pack) *_*

Spent a good few hours lone-wolfing it to the NW Airfield this evening, acquired an AK-74 on the way up, and a whole lot of nice loot. Got there and chilled for a bit, arranged to meet with some randoms but of course, didn't tell them exactly was, just said I was in the general area, then a few minutes later, see some guy cap another guy. So I watched him for a while from the roof of the fire station, kept a low profile so I wouldn't be seen and was going to kill him as I'd given him plenty of chances to identify himself, but with no response every time. As he got within accurate AK range from the building, he just stopped, in a prone position, facing the building, I didn't want to get up(I was prone behind a knee high wall on the buildings roof) as he could've killed me by the time my guy had stood up. I waited for a few minutes, but he didn't move, then out of no where, without any warning, I start getting shot from the airfield control tower, so I quickly spun around and tried to crawl to cover, but alas, it was to late. I was unconscious before I could make it to cover, and dead a second later. I did not know who the person I was tracking was, nor the other who could've been watching me the entire time. I guess I wasn't angry or anything at being killed, 'cause it's all part of the game; you die, you start again, I was just a bit annoyed that I didn't know the persons name, or what reason they had for shooting me, but, it's cool.

TL;DR: DayZ
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Kayne on June 02, 2012, 12:34:05 am
Jumped on for the first time.

Spawned where ever, Right next to some road and small factory / town thingie.

At first, I can't see anything hostile. Just looks like i'm all alone in this zombie stricken world.
Then I see movement about 50m down the road, Zombie. So I decide that there is no way i'm moving past him.
So I start to head toward the other end of the road and see that there is another zombie. Shit.
Looting the little factory / town seems like the best bet, so I then move to the walled area of the factory, Then I see that theres a zombie no less than 5m away from me.
Backing up, I turn around, and walk straight into another zombie. My gaming instincts kick in, and I shoot him in the head. Realising what I had just done..

I legged it down the road, in which I said i'd never go.

With about 8 zombies chasing me, and slowly Heavily bleeding, I slowly take them off 1 by 1, while doing a backward sprint.
I manage to take them all out, but now have no ammo left. I start looting their bodies to see if one of them has a health pack or ammo ( I realise I started with health packs here ).
Then I see something hopping around. One of those bloody monkey zombies. I being to run, but with no ammo, I realise there isn't much I can do. So I stop, Turn around, and welcome my fate.
Fuck this games fun.

How do you bandage yourself? ^ pretty much the same story for me

First go, load in, I see some hunched over zombie running around so try to crouch and sneak away. Crouch no work, need to do key binds, and mouse feels very wrong. Zombie comes over, no time to sort keys out so I aim with the gun and then hit left click, throws a flare, WTF, a second zombie starts to comes over, i'm seeing this gun in my hand and firing and it throws another flare. At this point i'm frustrated and try to quit but the menu system makes no sense and I die.

Game #2. Load pretty much same place, can see a few buildings so head there, a few zombies so I sneak around and up to a door. Door doesn't work. Sneak to next building, none of the doors work. Okay, so there are no working doors in this 4th world country. Out of no where a zombie sprints up to me at breakneck unbelieveable speed, panicked I let off 3 rounds and kill it but not after I got hit. I scarp it but can hear a zombie so I keep legging it then turn and nail it. No more zombies after me but i'm bleeding out and have no idea how to heal so quit.

I will assume that when I resume either i'll still be bleeding or dead. I went through the keys and there is not heal/bandage key bind. How do I heal?

Yeah sometimes it gets a bug when you sit on waiting for server response. Basicaly if you abort out to the server menu and the text "waiting for server resoponse" is still in the background you have to exit all the way out to the main menu and then click on multiplayer again.

Errr..... is that your screenshot HandofBlood?

Because the weapon you have there isn't included as default in DayZ. There's a silenced M4 - the M4A1 CCO SD -  but it comes without the torch and the grenade launcher, it also has a red dot scope. Yours has the holographic one (and is an M4A1 HOLO SD). If you picked it up off a dead body, you might wanna get rid of it (if you haven't already), and if you obtained it another way - you might wanna get rid of it.

Using weapons not in the game can get you banned permanently.

When will servers be updated to 1.7?
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Cdr on June 02, 2012, 06:56:00 pm
Problem with 1.7 is that its kind of an unfinished patch, Rocket released it before going to E3 but it introduced a fair few bugs (no backpacks spawning being a big one).

Can get 1.6.0.1 at http://cdn.armafiles.info/old/dayz_code_v1.6.0.1.rar

I'd personally stay away from 1.7 atm.

Been having the weirdest problems in the last 20 minutes. Got killed once coming out of a house, so aborted, respawned, but spawned back in that house, with all my gear on me, and when i went outside, my body was there with everything on it(had an alice pack full of gear, so couldn't fit anything) then went to the powerstation in Elektro, which was about 80 metres from the house I was, went up the tall firestation building and got killed in there, and as the guy was shooting at me, I caught a glimspe of his name and it said Wrench, but when I aborted then respawned, I was back in that same house again(spawned in the doorway this time) and asked why wrench killed me, and he said it wasn't him and a guy called Necriss owned up to it. So all in all, the f@$k kinda bugs am I having?! lol

Got away safe the third time, but then the game went to a black screen for me with zombies around me so quickly ended the arma process in task manager. God this is f@$ked =P

Some good times on this game. I fucking love it.

This one time...

I was walking, and saw it say "Survivor, 1500m", so i run up, and get more and more cautious as I approach. Turns out its something called Debug forrest, where players sit for some reason. Not knowing this was against the rules, i loot one of the guys for a sniper. I then spend an hour walking, end up coming across another survivor thats 200m away from me. Turns out, I've just walked in a giant circle for an hour. So I set off straight in one direction. I finally see a town. Trying to find some ammo, I walk into a little shed, nothing, so I go outside and a zombie sees me, So I shoot as a first reaction.

Of course, a sniper rifle is fucking loud. So now 50 zombies start chasing me, I start running down the towns dirt path, then hit a asphalt road. Start running down that and I hit another town, with about 50 zombies on my tail. I see some guy (BakermanNZ) is looking away from me, being cautious. You can see he's holding shift as he's crouching, being very sly. Because I didn't want to get lost again, I stuck to the road, but I was heading right for him. I didn't want to swarm him with zombies, So I did the best thing I could.

I shot my (last bullet btw) sniper rifle at the ground by his feet. He realised someone shot at him, He pulls out his rifle and turns to face me.  He then shows me the fastest reaction i've ever seen. He doesn't wait a few seconds for it to click, that a guy is running at him with 50 zombies behind him. He instantly got up, as soon as he saw me, turned around, and legged it. as fast as he could.

Thats the best part of the story. I end up trying to drop the rifle in hopes that it would make me faster, All the zombies hit me , breaking my legs, and k.o'ing me.

And then there was this other time...

Walked up to a light house in hopes of finding loot, right on top of a hill. Right before I get to the door, some guy comes running out backwards. All I can do is squeal "FRIENDLY!!! FRRRRIIEEENDLY!!!", Turns out this guy and his friend were both on mic, so I joined up with them. Then out of no where some random just comes running up the hill. So we now have a team of 4. We start walking down a hill to loot a town, we're shooting the zombies. Then all of a sudden bullets are flying past my face. 2 random survivors has snuck up on us and were now opening fire :(. was a fun little pvp showdown.

and then me and obbles made some hot topic conversations.

True story.


One thing I think this game needs, Is that when you've got your pistol out, and you're holding alt, You should be able to hold your gun, very flimsily, in the direction your looking. That way you'd be able to run, and just shoot a few bullets behind you when you're being chased. Accuracy could get worse depending on your speed.

I have my i5 750 cranked to 3.5ghz with 4gb @ 2000mhz and a 6950 2gb @ 900/1300, and I usually get a constant 60 frames, sometimes more @1920 x 1080 with everything high, except post processing and antialiasing down at the middle setting(I think it's very high on the middle setting)

But I do agree about the server and game bugs, it then drops down to around a constant 20 or so

Keen to meet up with a few guys after looking at sc thread

One question, Is there a chat that allows me to talk to people near by, off mic, without telling the whole entire server what i'm doing.

and does direct chat off mic mean that someone is near by?

Maybe to put that better

Emrico, when the team speak server went down tonight and I was on, and you started using in game mic, were you anywhere near North of balota, or atleast somewhere around there?

Cannot wait til they fix the inventory woes, lost two good weapons last night along with badly needed knife and matches, need to always scroll choose. Also seems you can't store items in bags if they get opened by someone else, creates a black hole.

Noice! I finally spotted my first ever vehicle tonight with Emrico whilst stalking our way up to Kabanino from Staroye. It was a a heli in the fields just north of Stary, But of course it had to overrun with about 30 Zeds, and no idea in hell where parts would be, we just walked on by where we made it to Kabanino and looked around a few barns. Server crash end our night short though unfortunately.

Need to go on another hunt some time, but actually search for a vehicle, looking for parts as we go. Keen to see how awesome and less time consuming(though I do love a good running simulator) they make the game.
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Cdr on June 06, 2012, 02:35:44 am
Was it a grey Marines Huey? Cos those ones can't be fixed - they're meant to contain 'uber' loot, AS50, L85s, NVGs etc, but they've been broken now for a few patches (I've yet to ever find anything either in or around them). I've heard that they're fixed in servers running the latest OA Beta Patch and 1.7, but I've yet to confirm that.

The choppers that can be repaired look exactly like the one I posted up there - with no external damage, except for the broken windscreen.

The best way to find vehicles is to search the places that most likely contain tents - they also usually have cars etc located close by, particularly if its a large camp. Biggest score our group found was about 8 or so tents containing various type of military grade stuff, and 3 cars. Naturally, we emptied the tents into the back of the cars, then ran over the tents with the vehicles before driving off. Sadly (karma if you will), when we logged back in the next day the tents and cars had disappeared from where we saved them :(

The cars / choppers are set spawn points tho, and will always spawn in the same place on each server. They are limited, and one would have to be destroyed before it gets respawned. In a bit of searching, I found 3 fixable choppers in exactly the same spot on 3 different servers.

Post by: Dr. Acula on June 06, 2012, 02:43:23 am
Ah I see, yea it was a Marines Huey, and that's what Emrico must've been on about with the 'uber loot'. Yea, also heard something about them being broken and 1.7 fixing them. Definitely be keeping an eye on those ones as well from now one.

I've only just started venturing inland more(been to the NW airfield once or twice, but apart from that usually keep to the shore line) So I'm sure I'll be seeing a lot more vehicles to fix and loot.

Wouldn't a mash up of DayZ and Stalker just make the ultimate game?

Also, Rockets been at E3 meeting fans and conducting interviews. Someone posted this up on Reddit:

Quote
"Hey, I was at E3 today and met Rocket, the developer of this mod. I talked to him for about five minutes about the mod, so I'm just gonna go through how the conversation went.
I first addressed him by saying that I love his mod, and that he should never stop punishing the carebears who want it to be made into a 'fun' game. He laughed, clearly loving that sentiment. I first asked him if he was going to get a team to help him out. He responded that Bohemia Interactive is very supportive of games that don't really have any marketability or exposure, and is willing to take risks in this way on games that may or may not clearly make money right away. I agreed, considering that Arma is basically a simulation engine and not necessarily a game. Because of this attitude, he said, he has been instructed directly to stop his work as a multiplayer designer so that he can focus exclusively on Day Z, and that he believes that Day Z is the first step towards Bohemia gearing up to make it into a full standalone game out of recognition for the opportunity to make something very different and the clear interest people have in it. He went on to say that it being a standalone title is important if only for the sake of consistency and ease of play, as mods are not the most stable or easy-to-use games, and that the only determining factor for the mod's future is the stability of the unpredictable fanbase.
I told him that the fans are playing it in droves, and with great fervor, even in spite of its clearly-alpha state; in fact, on that note, the forums are blowing up with "WHERES ROCKET" and bug reports while he's here at E3. He laughed and said he's been trying to not visit the forums while he's gone cuz he knows he's gonna get pissed. I then went ahead and asked him if he thought the mod would end up on Arma 3. He said he'd already sort of ported it to try it out (!!!), and that it works great. The main reason he "released" Day Z so early as an alpha was to allow for it to be stress-tested, as it is primarily a network-based game. At this juncture, I asked if he saw it ending up with more players-per-server in the future. He said DEFINITELY, that it's been tested internally and he thinks it could handle between 100-200 players easily (!!!!!). The thought of the anti-bandit rage this would induce gave me a semi. Anyway, he said that the engine was developed for such incredible strains, and that such numbers are in fact a natural fit.
I asked him if he thought he'd be doing away with 'meta' elements, such as server-wide chat and in-game player lists. He said not only is he doing this for sure, but that he's only waiting on the next beta patch of Arma 2 and then it is definitely happening. This excited me greatly. At this point, opportunely enough, I noticed his shirt. He said he'd had a bunch made, but that they didn't ship in time for the show so he had a small batch printed up when he got here so he could wear one. Said he took the idea from 4chan. I asked him if he'd let 'them' know about it yet, and by 'them' that I meant the entire internet. He said no, so I said "well shall we?""

TL;DR DayZ ports well to Arma3, planning to have 100-200 player servers, potential for a standalone DayZ.

Whatever you did to the GetSome servers yesterday Osi, (or maybe just NZ7) seemed to really improve it, played around 4 hours on it yesterday and it didn't crash/reset/restart for the entire time...nice work (even if you didn't do anything).


Also, with the mention of Stalker, if they used the inventory and quick keys from stalker (bandage) but with the "can't access pack easily" simulation it would be sweet. Pack as it is is infuriating but I do like the idea that you can only quickly access what's in your belt and pockets.

Fuck yes.

On that, would make all the more believable storyline - rather than infected zombies they're radiation mutated zombies.

Alliances, territories, safezones (group and radiation), suits, trading depots...VODKA!!!

Game needs more vodka IMO, so not a believable former soviet block.

about a month ago, I played through and finished the entire STALKER series, and got very depressed when they announced they were cancelling work on STALKER 2 :(. DayZ has been the best substitute for it and would love to see a few ideas taken from there and put into a game like this. So much potential!

Managed to find a UAZ last night which needed some extensive repairs. After an hour we gather parts for the fuel tank, one wheel and some fuel, then the server crashed and it was gone :/

still very happy about actually finally finding one though, it gives me hope. Also apparently some people had a bus going on NZ2 ?

Post by: Dr. Acula on June 08, 2012, 09:53:15 am
I finally found a vehicle too in Stary, all it needed was a wheel and some gas, so found the gas, went for a look around to find a wheel, but needed blood, so gathered wood, cooked some shit, then realised the wood had taken over my jerry can and it was gone :( But as Weap0nX said, happy to finally find one.

All in all, I spent around 6 hours playing tonight, from 3 am to 9 am lol, most of it was trawling Stary's military camp, but with no luck of finding anything, I headed down to Zelenogorsk, and again, no luck down there apart from wasted food and ammo, so went back to Stary for a wee while longer, where I FINALLY found a M4A1 CCO, feels good to have a powerful weapon, though I still reverted back to a Winnie and put the M4A1 in my bag for when it's needed most. <3 Winnie.

Man, our little group of 3 had such fun last night running around trawling through villages, throwing flares and smoke at zeds, pushing over some cows, roasting marshmellows over open fire, getting swarmed with zeds in a church, going for a swim in a flare infested pond but that's where the fun ended fuck you coward in the ghillie suit hiding in wait.

Game is so much fun messing around, just think the pvp is a little gay as no one is friendly, should save the pvp for the NW IMO and leave the south for noobs to frollick and play.

The bugs are annoying at times but it just adds another random element to the game. Most of the time there are ways around it.
People have been trying to make FPS have ultra teamwork elements for years and ironically, this game is the only one I have played where people actually co-ordinate for an objective.
I've always liked sandbox shooters with rpg elements like borderlands and fallout but this is even better as it adds the fps and the leveling is simply your equipment. That can all be taken away.

It helps that Obble is a stupidly funny mofo too.

The originality of the game style and the enormity of the map makes it a must play.
We should as PC gamers support this kind of game because it is what we want, rather than the current trend of money first, games second like blizzard, EA and activision.
Also, it's only $30 US on steam (cheaper elsewhere).

Load up arma2 and do the bootcamp tutorial, it gives you a chance to get your configs away from that clunky mother of a setup.

The server can enforce settings to prevent people turning things off for advantages. View distance is locked server side along with grass, you cannot disable grass in multi-player like you can in single player.

TBH, you should shoot all children that can't write good proper English.

I spent a good couple of hours on NZ8 last night and enjoyed skulking around a few towns and not running into any of the other 45+ people on the server. I enjoy knowing some loser could be camping a spot for hours waiting for a kill and I don't give that person any satisfaction - especially when I trigger a horde and go all out revolver loudness blazing.

Just need some matches so I can go bush and roast some goat.

        * [REVERT]     5 second delay for disconnecting (will need to wait till new method developed)

        * [REVERT]    Infected sight based on head not body direction (infected  glace around alot, this meant that they had super view directions. Now  locked at body direction)
        * [FIXED]    Area not checked for existing infected before spawning new  ones ("blind faith" that it had not made a mistake didn't work)
        * [FIXED]    Crippling performance issues caused by loot items never being cleaned up (loot now cleaned up)

Suggestion:
Melee attacks with knife and hatchet. I understand the engine doesn't support melee weapons, but i wonder if a hunting knife could be made to be equiped as a throwable object and then "thrown" as an attack using a melee animation instead of a throw animation, having a throw range of 1m and an invisible projectile, and causing instant splash damage and pushback to anything within the 1m diameter splash zone, and off course having infinite ammo. Also, could add chance of losing melee weapon during an attack.

E (http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/06/01/robert-bowlings-human-element-announced)x - cod strategist Robert Bowling has come up with the innovative idea of a zombie game, where the biggest problem, isn't the zombies, its the human interaction. One of the game ideas is "You spend hours racking up experience, Then you get shot. You now need food, and to do things you don't want to do".

It's not even released yet and already had a part in my gaming magazine, Wonder when DayZ will be shown? Will they wait for Arma 3? or wat.

Will be interesting to see the competition.

This loot drop thing is bugged, after updating to 1.7.1.1 and getting passed the character create boss I straight away found a cammo suit, tent, knife, compass, watch, and ghillie suit but then after two hours roaming (crawling mainly) towns found only empty whisk(e)y bottles and empty cans.

I couldn't find a single animal in any field so now i'm starving and in need of blood as the zeds still have great vision and will chase you down endlessly even across fields from town to town.

Osiris, when you do find me, I still have a cammo suit, watch, knife, compass, and ammo for you - but I need beans!!!

Post by: oefox on June 19, 2012, 11:37:27 am
Oh...did not think about the animal killing...now THAT I will try out for some night time stealth feeding

I am assuming it's the standard hatchet and that you scroll select, the comment about right click dropping from gear I am assuming means to actually drop it and not attack, if you have to enter gear to attack that would be frustrating...especially if not 1 hit slaughter.

IMO, the abbatoir building should contain animals.

If my original theory is correct, and that they are going to use a phantom 1m throw/splash damage attack to trick the engine into making a melee attack then it will be an option cycled by pressing F. I guess time will tell.

man it's REALLY annoying know that hatchets don't sit in the lower inventory any more but they sure do own zeds

Tonights story was sweet, I got nailed by a zed after I didn't realise crouch running is really loud now, he broke my bones but I got him before I passed out; come to, bandage and eat all 4 meats and have 7k life, but with no pain killers and morphine (after pack glitch lost all ammo and meds) I had to crawl everywhere...but, osiris kindly left a bike before he died and I managed to cycle around and find a goat (cycling into goats kills them), so cooked some goat straight away in open field and health at 10k now so cycle around looking for deer huts, first one has morphine and pain killers!!! Cycled somewhere safe and clocked out. Cycles are sweet.

Just had to repost this from reddit, for those of you who don't read reddit:

"Me walking around in dayz , just started out, no gun. I then chill on a bridge, look around. I suddenly hear over local mic 'hatchetman gonna gitcha'. I fucking run like hell under the bridge. Hear clinking boots on the bridge above me. I then hear 'where you go boy, I need to wet my axe'. Fucking stay under there for nearly 10 minutes before crawling out. I look around all paranoid like for the next 10 minutes. No sign of the guy.
That is by far the most terrified I have ever been in a game."

After a few install niggles and pissing around mapping keys to G13, I jump into a GetSome server.

I'm beached, its dark, and I cant work out how to even activate my flashlight.....

A survivor suddenly comes sprinting right past me, with torch flashing wildly as he runs. Hordes of zombies trail him like a end scene of a Benny Hill show. I am dazed and confused as they dog-pile me and the guy disappears into the night. Welcome to DayZ!
I shrug it off and load in again. Spawn in the sea, swim ashore and meet a guy holding an axe on the beach. Tell him I'm a friendly, weaponless noob..........'WHACK, WHACK' and I am murdered.

Thought, fuck this, grabbed a box of piss out of the fridge and went and watched the rugby test. Will try again when its daylight on the servers to even stand a chance of progressing and learning this game! :topsy_turvy:

Had the best first experience tbh.

Running through forest for ages with torch. See little township and decide it'd be an awesome idea to run through it. End up running for a couple km chased by 6 or so zombies. (Seriously felt like I ran for 10 mins). Until I hit a barn, inside is another survivor who tells me to get up the stairs and proceeds to save my ass hard. He gives me food/water and a gun and is a general GC. Proceeds to show me around and how things work, controls etc.

Best first play tutorial ever.

Today has been a pretty rubbish day for our group.

Lost my AS50 due to some bad inventory management on my part - dropped on ground, think a tree ate it.

Almost got capped in a supermarket while looking at my map, thankfully a mate was just behind me and was able to shoot the guy before he got me.

2 of our group got killed at the NW airfield, first guy was killed in a horrible friendly fire incident (note to him : Comms are there for a reason), and then the 2nd guy got killed while guarding the first blokes body. Lost a mk48, NVGs, GPS.

They then both spawned at the Elektro, fixed a car up, drove north to Vybor to meet up with the rest of us and promptly got killed by a guy with a DMR (who we then killed).

Overall, bad day out for the IPT boys.

And then you drove off with it all and squashed all our tents, bastards :concern:

The loss of vehicle is really the only biggie... We can re-dupe all the items we lost anyway. :/

Hah, must have been shocker day on NZ10.
After surviving for 5 days through all the shitty patches got a RIB, got owned, got a bus, we all got owned. Got back to the Bus, shot a guy... Owned.
Some dudes had our little base camped out for hours lol.
Best game ever.

Mmm, i played this game once, ran around for about 1 hr before i ran out of ammo.

found a stack of AK47's in a military medic camp, but i couldnt pick any of them up, so assumed they were just objects.

Eventually ran out of ammo, and a zombie broke my leg and ate my face.

Didnt see anyone else.


I just found the lack of item finding in general frustrating.

Whoever(s) shot us in the bus last night I had to have a laugh, emrico drove the entire map in the bus making many wrong turns and no doubtly invoking a lot of interest, to pick me and speak up from the airfield. We jump in and I make the comment - "well if I get shot now I don't really care, I'M RIDING A F*ING BUS" and then 2 seconds later speak and rico get 1 shotted from a distance as there was no gunshot report. I jump out and can't work out the direction so just crouch and wait for the inevitable 1 shot no report.

I suspect Mev, that the person(s) that killed us in the bus then took it for a joy ride and found the many tent camps all over the show. I'm assuming it was eurphoric, he is the biggest griefer around :P

Lest I have my bicycle cleverly hidden, I have now almost cycled a full loop of chernarus, my tour de if you'd like to call it.

Oh, and who was driving that little red car all up and down the coast yesterday, agro'd so many zeds it was loltastic.

^ it was you then EB cause that's where all the shit happened yesterday evening! Also, not cool on doing the duplicate glitch, pretty unecessary hax.


Oh and good work on finding that one out Osiris, for the rest of you; I had the IRB with speakman, we fill up at Solnichy after emrico got killed (by a girl character in a red car). We took off and went the whole way down and around to Kamenka where Osiris was standing on the roof of a building with someone. That someone fell off and died when we turned up. We do a really hot pick up with zeds everywhere and manage to get away. Heading back along the coast this random (turns out it's raven) is running along the coast and requests a ride so I swing her back and pick him up then we scoot the whole way back around to solnichy and decide to pull in for gas then bullets start flying from everywhere so we high tail it 500m then stop so I can bandage up speak and give him a transfusion.

There is way too much banditry going on. Here we are helping people along the coast providing a ferry service, and rude c**ts are taking pot shots. We then get a bus service up and someone promptly kills everyone only to go and hide the bus!!!

I got all equipped up. Car, tractor, bike. M4A1CCO SD. Making a camping way the fuck in the middle of nowhere and found a atv and car (nothing much in the car or ATV). So I'm moving my car filled with Aks and all sorts of mint gear (further from random camp) like never before. Bang. Over. So miles away from anywhere on a half full server. So fucking Random to get shot out there lols.
I had it so I could drive the tractor out of the forest, get the bike and roll down.
I'm going to hunt that area like a motherfucker now.

Maybe time to shift to a not so full of bandit thuggery server eh? Or are they all like that now...still think the best part of this game is having nothing and looting zed infested places to gear up, PvP is just not satisfying, although joyriding in vehicles is.

Found a hatchet and went on an enraged axe attack. Chopping through zeds like madman, before noticing there were 3 unarmed survivors following my trail of destruction and rifling through the corpses as I went along!

Somehow received a broken leg at he end of it, so I handed my bloodied axe to one grateful guy (had no meds to fix myself) and proceeded to crawl into the nearby sea to drown.....


.......but once under the sea, I found I could not drown! :concern:



Crawled out and about for 15 mins until I found a zed to molest me so I could respawn in the now full server. Early dayz, yet experiencing some epic lols.

Horrible run of luck on NZ10 :( Just lost another ATV and Motorbike while refueling in the middle of the forest in buttfuck nowhere outside Putushcka or whatever it's called, such a random spot to encounter three enemies...

So, since last two weeks ago I've been having chest pains, nothing major just tightness that i attributed to having a cold a while back...  Well it would seem that it's actually a combination of too much caffeine, a lack of sleep, and stress. Im going to go out on a self diagnosis limb here and attribute it entirely to dayz, no game has ever immersed me to the point hearing gunshots has given me adrenaline rushes and stressed my nervous system. I can cut the caffeine at least.

What is the process most of you guys do, to get into the action. Just run along the coast till you find houses to get stuff from, then head in land along the road>\?

Man down! Got a nice setup going and roll into a town with fox, I see three guys sitting on the mountain side watching as and panic little did I know I attracted 10 Zombies on me. I took them all out but broke my legs and was passing in and out of consciousness. Fox was only 50 metres away from me but with houses and fences he was lost. I ended up dying after 3 days alive and after all that fox didn't even kill one of them when they looted my body :(

I'll need a few days before I get back into game perhaps the new tf2 release will help.

Sorry Cat, I saw your nudge when I logged out. I could have helped out.

I made my FN FAL disappear in a tent :sorrow:
On the upside I got another m24... But my mission to get a vehicle was a failure.

I was looting the tents in Starry and a guy spawned into one. We both stopped and just watched each other, face to face. Trapped waiting to see what would happen for ages.
Then some russian voice came out and he legged it.

Was kind of like this

Also: Take your time. Best advice I got when I started. This isnt a twitch shooter, and the engine doesn't allow for it. Creep, scout before moving, line your shots up and check your surroundings before you pull that trigger. You might down one zed and agro another 8

I am in the same boat as pop/cata. Getting  pretty boned by this game. In the hour or so i played last night, picked up about 4 deaths. And 2 of those deaths involved moving inland, and finding a house. Just to get some soda cans, before a bunch of zombies pop up and kill me.

I got a little confused as to how the servers work,
If I login NZ9 say jam for a couple of hours and manage to survive. If I then logout, and say later that night log back in. In order to play from where I left off do I have to join NZ9 or if I join any of the GetSome servers it will load into where I was last before I aborted?
Title: DayZ General Chat

You can join any server, and be exactly where you left off.


The server specific stuff comes in once you have vehicles and tents, those are kept on the server you find/place them

That's pretty much the game.
All scavenging comes with danger, the better the loot in the area, the more likely to die.
Then there are the random deaths in odd places, just because they saw you first.
Aaaaand then there are the bugs, that get you quite often.

Don't get too attached to your gear, there are no friendlies in Cherno and all your loots... Belong to me.

That time you ran into me in the fire station awhile ago, I think we were on the edge of choppin' each other with our axes, until we both realised each other would hold their word after saying "friendly".

After you left to pursue and get revenge on the group of 4 guys that had shot you earlier, I thought 'wow, he's got balls to bring a knife to a gun fight!'

Is there a server you guys usually play on? I've been playing a fair bit of the game over the last week, very fun, but it is much more fun with other people, especially when you are low on blood.

Fuuu, just had my best game so far, first game where I've actually been able to start doing what I want to do, instead of running around gathering shit all the time, then I run into another player / turns out to be a bandit? I would have been able to shoot them if your player doesnt bloody stop running while changing from secondary to primary weapon...

Same sort of thing as running away from this mob of Zombies when suddenly trying to vault over thin air.

Hahaha. Don't worry, that was my killing myself so I could respawn elsewhere. They bitched out and disconnected after my first attempt I think.

You met me at my second attempt. My first only failed because he had an enfield, which allowed him to sprint faster than me for some reason. They survived because of a glitch. If I ever see them again, they will die. I don't seek revenge for ordinary murders. The fact was they had said friendly, and we had been communicating and working as a group previously.

It is a hacked weapon, whether you hacked it in or not doesn't matter. It should, in theory, be replaced by a Makarov at some point.

The question is, now that you know it's a hacked weapon, will you drop it? Bearing in mind that although you probably won't get a global ban for using it a couple of times,  you might after continuous use.
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: oefox on July 03, 2012, 09:18:42 am
My own pack called me sad names for saying the same thing when someone found a G36, I pointed out it was not a legit weapon and should be discarded, but alas they did not listen.

We should make it quite clear in the server rules, that we don't have posted yet, that bans will be given for geing caught with illegitimate weapons and vehicles like the two that were caught and banned last night.

Lead by example, I know this game is alpha but it needs more honesty, too many hackers and people cheating through telespawning and cheatingdeathdiscos.

In fairness, I actually thought that M4A1 was legit, the G36 I knew definitely wasn't. Didn't realise the attachment combination was not legit.

See here for what is valid: http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Weapons

A quick check shows there is a silenced version, and a M203 version, but not the combo. I'm sure that the gun in question will now be dropped.

It is not difficult to bring up that webpage through the steam overlay to validate weapons, if you find an illegitimate weapon on a body you should SS it. Apparently a dead giveaway is the lack of an image.
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Cdr on July 03, 2012, 02:30:52 pm
HandOfBlood posted a screenshot on the 1st page of this thread showing that he had the M4A1 with 203 + suppressor, I hadn't seen it in DayZ before, and so went to check the Wiki just to make sure. There's not that many variants of the M4 in the game, but basically the only silenced M4 is the one with the red dot.

But I've seen people with the VSS, or the SVD with a night scope on. There be some dodgy chunts around.

Not trying to troll but a gun like that gives the player a huge advantage. He can silently kill players and zeds with ease, then with one button switch to a m203, not to mention the holo sight is the best sight ingame imo lol
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: NZFez on July 03, 2012, 03:21:47 pm
The only advantage it has is the supressor, but as we already have 2 or 3 supressed guns anyway doesn't make too much of a differennce, I would understand if he was a lonewolf hunting players but he is not. Anyway that gun is most probably the least of your worries from us as we have 2xM107, an AS50 and as of last night a MK48 which I would say is more of a worry as it is machine which is a one hitter quitter, with a reddot sight, forgrip and bipod.

You sound like a bitch bro.

The pack will throw that weapon and we shall just pick up some 50cals or machine guns. Non issue.

I've not said you were hackers, i just said that using a hacked weapon is bad form - but it is hard to know what is and what isn't without specifically checking the wiki before picking it up. I know I've almost been caught out by it a couple of times.

I also know that now you've been told its a hacked weapon that you'll throw it away, because you're not hackers.

Different guns for different purposes. FAL is the devil in CQ, .50 for sniping, crossbow for stealthy looting :)

Wish they'd quiver up the bolts as it's a pain messing about getting bolts back, wish they'd just appear as loot on a dead zed.

No Name tags on Vet, Map doesn't show player locations on Vent (both compared to Reg). That's all I've noticed so far.

And then there's side channels. Direct, Group and Vehicle on Vet.

Everyone just died on the server(cant remember which number, kill3r was on maybe he knows) something happened we all fell.

update today, 1.7.2

http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=32371


By the sounds of it, its pretty buggy like last time, so may be worth holding up for a couple of incremental updates
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Lathium on July 10, 2012, 11:59:57 am
Yeah it's fairly buggy.

Anywho, had about 263 kills. Went to NW airfield, saw heaps of Stationary zombies didn't add to the kill count. Killed a few, got a few pieces of loot, left, then headed east. Found an M24 with a mag, used it, and then found a bloudy helicopter crash site - First one I've found since I started playing. Started to snipe a few of the zombies, went up to try and loot it, and low-and-behold - I couldn't. Couldn't find the loot location anywhere over it.

Anyway, I see one zombie spawn in front of me, and then I back away. Instantly, one zombie - literally 100 meters away from me agros onto me, I shoot him, then I get all the bloudy Corps on my ass, I run backwards and try to shoot, yet they knock me down, and I die.

Had that character for a while. Oh well, time to Rambo again.

EDIT:

HOLY SHIT. Thank god for NZ10 Disconnecting/crashing. I load up the game expecting to start a new character, but my toon is still alive. The Server must of rebooted/DC'd right before I got facked up.

Thank the lord for bugs for saving my character. *Breathes huge sigh of relief*.

Post by: dirtyape on July 10, 2012, 12:27:05 pm
Heli loot is on the ground around it. Check under the tail there's usually something there. It only spawns loot once. Heli crash sites respawn at heli crash nodes per server restart.

DON'T CHANGE CLOTHES IN 1.7.2 or you will lose everything, wait for hotfix.

Anyone else noticed that since the patch the zombies aggro from a much greater distance and even crouch walking will set them off from quite a way away in grass? Can hardly get anywhere without having to chop my way through a ton of zombies, whereas before the patch I had survived for about 7 hours of total playtime in my previous character and only killed about 30 or so zombies(I only kill them when i really have to)
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Lathium on July 10, 2012, 05:05:50 pm
Yup, if they're looking at you from a fairly decent distance they'll generally notice that you're 'edible' and chase after you.

Bad luck if you happen to fire off a shot when there are other zombies in the vicinity as well.

Double post, different events.

Found another camp site with roughly 6 tents and 3 vehicles outside it on NZ10. Whoever you are (If you frequent these forums) you had Ghillie suits for Africa. I took the liberty of freeing them to some poor souls (when they get fixed) and sent them to my own tent.

Oh also. I may have taken some ammo and possibly your FN FAL NV gun...  Was pretty tempted to take the DMR as well, and the M249. I might be back for those later :P

Went round looking for choppers and found these two beautys, one with a l85 (with the most ridiculously overpowered scope in existence), and a m107 and more nightvision.

The L85 heat vision is insane i watched a dude go through a town and get chased out the other side by zombies all from 700m away without losing sight of him lol

Some goood stuff from the interview;

- They are working towards a stand alone version by the end of the year @ around $30US
- A lot of problems will be put aside until the stand alone, because they wll be easily fixed then, inventory, loot etc
- Alt f4 and duping will be fixed when the game goes stand alone, along with server hopping
- They will continue to pull radical experiments while they still can
- The servers that control hackers are not set up for such a volume at this point and they are working on it
- Rocket has big offers from many publishers and devs wanting a slice but he's resisting so he can follow the minecraft model

Aiming? Or hiding in a bush across a runway with a thermal scope and DCing if someone fires back?
You sound so sure that there were only 5 when I know there were many more and that the person firing at you survived.

Nub question time:

Which would be the best server to jump on and learn the game without having to worry about people stealing the rags from my back?  I've had a quick blast with Arma2 and have the basics down, however I've spent more time playing Peggle than I have DayZ.

Also how can we check which version we're running?  I'm using the DayZ Updater that Osiris mentioned in the Newbie guide, so I'm guessing that accesses the latest version.

Find an empty daylight server, use an online map and go hard. If you're using the 6 updater you should be good.

Since I didnt waste u guys yesterday on NZ20 while u were all dancing around your broken helicopter loooking spastic (i was lying right next to u guys in the grass for ages, im sure you know when im talking about....I was armed to the teeth but didnt want to cause any trouble)  Anyways Do you think you could return the favour and come give me some assistance ? I broke my legs near Zelenogorsk,  I have two tents in that region of the lands, I'm willing to pack one up and give it to the person who can bring me some morphine this evening ....  Surely you guys can help, your such a large group and I know you have plenty of transport ;)

At the time when I was near you guys I didnt  yell out cause I was worried you might turn on me for laughs, but quite frankly if u kill me now I dnot care, I cant go anywhere and its your loss if you kill me since im willing to give u a tent and all I got on my body at the moment is two empty guns and some food/water :P

Sick to death of this fucking game and its shit prick bloody glitches.

1. I was running along with an invent and pack full of shit, ran into a house and randomly fell over dead (no noise to say that I was killed).

2. Ran from Drakon up north, bout 20 minutes running, ran through a zombie - knocked me out in one hit and I went unconscious for about a minute while it ate me down to about 5k health, got back to being alive, bandaged myself up and it knocked me out straight away again.

3. Pretty much the same thing as above happened.

Also, seems like I've just been penalised for server hopping.

I'm at Stary, cleared out what I wanted from nz20, hop on over to 19, find an M4A1 CCO (And am extremely happy that I did), go back to a safe place to go back to NZ20 to bugger off, log over, and I lose everything. Weapon, Backpack (with 2 guns in it) and toolbelt.

I spawned infront of someone back at the tents, compared to where I logged out previously in my safe zone. I yelled out friendly, and thank the lord they didn't shoot, sorta hoping it was oeFox?

Anyway, I feel really bummed about that. Binoc's lost as well.

Oh...that might have been me, I logged off around 11:30, so if you someone that I disappeared then that was probably me otherwise it was spork as I think he said he was heading on.

I died btw, lots of gun smoke but couldn't actually see anyone, a little disappointed in unfair fights but all those tents are mine so make sure they keep getting used or they might vanish.

Yea, That was bullshit, especially how he waited long enough for us to get somewhere/ I had found all the kit tools like map compass axe matches and stuff, then he killed everyone again.

Even when they spawned next to me and started haxin like a mad man, spawning heaps f shit infront of me, but they were invincible and I couldn't get then to type anything so I could see their name.. They spawned a bike so I just got on that and tried to get away before they killed me, but they spawned another bike Nd rode after me, then killed everyone again.

Noob question, but srsly: What is the most fun thing about Dayz (i.e. what makes people keep playing it?)

I ask this as I am contemplating purchasing ARMA for Dayz (as it looks pretty awesome) but I need a little nudge to convince me to do it, and that Dayz will be able to hold my attention. Is it worth getting it or the money be better spent on another game?
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Th3.Dud3.Abid3s on July 22, 2012, 04:26:10 pm
For me personally, the main fun is starting from scratch, feeling naked and vulnerable and then managing to successfully scrounge my way into a position of stable survivability.

Once I'm 'all geared up' as it were, the game loses its appeal for me and merely becomes a sub-standard fps version of Bf2; albeit way more campy and far less action.

The team play is awesome and filled with lol's though, so that replicates the tight bf2 comradery that I miss. That is the most fun about DayZ, for me anyway. :loyal:
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Spork on July 22, 2012, 05:25:37 pm
One thing which I love about day z is that it isn't a quick game, you have use a bit of patience to do most things - or at least if you want to beat the average lifetime of 45 minutes! (yes I know it's askewed a bit).

Also just teaming up with mates and spending a while scouting then raiding the towns, seeing another 'survivor' run into a building and spending the next while taking them down with help from friendly snipers up in the hills or a situation similar to that.

Just to then walk into the next building and get killed by the door step..
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: EnjoyTheSauce on July 22, 2012, 05:27:25 pm
What The Dude said, except replace BF2 with Project Reality. My favourite part of both games is the wandering through these large open maps, vulnerable as hell while thinking "is there someone watching me right now?". Its all about the tension that builds off of that. Then theres random encounters with other survivors, not knowing if they're going to blow you head off or give you that much needed blood transfusion.

Theres no story for this game, you and the players you interact with make the story and that combination makes for any number of unique experiences.
Title: DayZ General Chat
Post by: Spork on July 22, 2012, 05:27:40 pm
I was actually going to compare the team play to bf2 before I had even read the dudes' post, being on team speak and being able to organize things makes it even more fun.

Hey oh, started to have a go at this one in the last couple of days :)
Has been quite frustrating but a lot of fun.
Just a quick nooby question please.(or two)
When you get into an GetSome server do you guys have a certain place on the map you go to?
Also last night runing around got kicked for being idle, I was moving most of the time?
Is that to do with steam not logging your time for this mod?
thanks hope to see some of you soon on a server.(i have only seen one person so far lol)

Most people have their own places where the go with friends, but there is no set location where GetSome people go, the kicked for being idle thing is a orcon server thing, I got kicked from the lobby for being idle for about 5 seconds multiple times last night.

It was just odd that we killed him and his friend (you i guess) who were both fully kitted out gps nvg snipers etc.
After we got both of you the whole server starts dying one by one. however i noticed and screamed disconnect to my friends. so we got your gear and got out.

anyway if it wasn't you the logs will show it so don't worry.

I heard a little trick with the graphical glitching that you have in that clip:

Hold left shift and hit - on the numpad, release the two keys, then type in flush (you wont see any text).

Arma2 updating for anyone in Steam?

Edit: Found info

Quote
As part of our continuous support, we released a new patch for the award-winning tactical military shooter, Arma 2. Patch 1.62 brings a lot of fixes to multiplayer, which – aside for the large scale military battles – will also make zombie hunts much less prone to crashes and should improve server stability. The other highlights of version 1.62 are:

Multiplayer optimizations, security and server improvements
Overall stability was improved with numerous tweaks and fixes
Added new video options (Post-Process Anti-Aliasing, Alpha To Coverage)
Additional AI improvements and numerous bug fixes
Resolved issues with several training missions
Added a lot of new script commands for content makers
For the full list of fixes, be sure to check out 1.62’s README file, which is provided together with the .exe file.

I half fixed the ATV, in retrospect, I should have fixed it properly...

Chin up. Its a real bitch of a game to get going. I had about 3 or 4 attempts (aka how long i could be bothered before i got pissed off) before i got it running. One thing that i found helps, is moving all the dayz plugins across both the base arma2 and the OA version.

My Arma 2 version is / was (hopefully fixing it now) stuck on 1.6.2, even though I was updating using the latest beta version. Six updater said Day-Z is up todate. Trying Day-Z commander, which said Arm2 is out of date and updating itself now.

Was unable to join the GetSome servers.

Trick is to ensure you have a water bottle in your inventory and log out when there is no red/yellow chain. That being said, game is buggy as hell and i'm currently dead due to invisibandit and not respawning til things calm down. Funny hackers turning everyone into chickens is hilarious though. Can not wait til a full version mmo is released where hacking is non-existant.

DayZ
So, with the final 1.62 patch being released, quite a few weapons had their damage nerfed. I just finished updating the weapon comparison chart at DayZDB, but here's a quick list of what changed.

Makarov: 889 damage, down from 2000

G17, M9, M9 SD, PDW, MP5A5, MP5SD6, Bizon PP-19 SD: 889 damage, down from 1389

Revolver, M1911: 1389 damage, down from 4500

M1014, Remington 870, Double-barreled: slugs do 4500 damage, down from 6722

Lee Enfield: 6722 damage, down from 12500 (audible range 162m, down from 234m)

AK-74, AKS-74U, AKS-74 Kobra: 2722 damage, down from 3555

Sidearms are super weak now. Here's to hoping rocket increases their damage again in a DayZ patch.

Nah, he got away or DCd. I fraps'd, I'll upload it. Filming stops just as he gets running. Somehow didn't the kill. Probably too ranged for the AK (got my FAL back now, that would have dropped him like buttered bread).

This house move is fucking me off.

DayZ isn't running due to the Steam update fucking it up (?), this also includes my Arma 2 and OA installs from loading (Due to a weapon_e.pbo not being able to open?) and Teamspeak constantly disconnects me within minutes of joining. Reinstalled 3 times, not really what I want for today.
Title: DayZ General Chat

Validate both your Arma 2 and OA install, you'll need to re-run Arma 2 then OA - then you should be able to launch CO again. I had the same issue, seems that it only downloaded part of the update fsr.

Bloody hackers, was having a decent amount of fun last night when suddenly BAM 50 cal from about 2 metres away (when I had just run down a corridor after making sure that nobody else except friendlies were around), broken legs then dead a second later.

Oh well, most of the fun is in starting over again, not knowing if you will live long enough to get your first gun, or that next can of food, or a hatchet, sprinting toward the next deer hut just to climb up the top, fall off and break a leg without a hospital within an hours crawl.

Yep, 100% legit (although they can still be spawned by hackers, but there's nothing you can do about that).

It's called a Ural. Troop carrier, you can fit 12 people on it? i think? or maybe just 10.

It's a V3S, the ural is covered. 20 weapons/belt items, 200 items, 8 packs. Or something.

you probably logged out to fast after getting the items so they didn't register to the hive. if you get good loot stick in the server for 5-10 mins to be safe.

Fuck this game is riddled with hackers. they spawn where ever they want, they also can turn invisible, have dogs, can drop any items.

This guy thought he was doing me a favour showing off his hacks, I just got my screen shot going so I had a list of everyone in the server.

He spawned in just after I did, they were taking the truck we had spent hours getting last night. 6 hours of work to be undone in minutes by hackers.

then he made me some antibiotics and dropped them on the ground and proceeded to show off how he could turn invisible and run round me.

What a low life.

Sucks for us legit players who spend hours trying to get somewhere.

Let strelok grief the hackers tbh. Currently hacking is so rampant and so widespread its the only way to deal with it, just today i spent the whole day looking for vehicles and when i finally find em a hacker attacks us then another steals the vehicles and another group in a heli me and a mate shot down teleport him right to them and kill him. All this all in the space of a 30min totally ruined 5 hours of hard work.

spawn at kamenka, be an idiot, run into building with one entrance, fire lee enfield. suddenly 300 spartan zombies kill me and rip me to pieces.

spawn at drakon, get teleported to some place with everyone else on the server, loot the hackers back pack for his cz 550, went to take aim. dead.

Just now I was trying to help a friend on his very first couple of hours of DayZ, he was doing a lot better than most people, was able to use the dayzdb map well enough to find Balota airfield, where I was. Then we both set off up north (me using ingame map) on NZ20 trying to find some random tents which I set up ages ago so we could get some NVGs as it was pitch black. We go three quarters of the way there when it started raining, and then it started pouring down so much that neither of us could see anything at all, so we swapped servers, ran into a small town with a supermarket, got some food and drink, attracted way too many zombies, I went down to about 900 health.
We bolted out of there, ran to the spot where the tents were, logged out, logged back into 20, I tried to swap to my torch (never even used one before, but I couldn't even see my tents), was aiming down at my feet, left mouse button to flick to torch.

Bang.

Spork was killed.

I shot myself in the foot.

Spork fail of the day;

Log in at Balota with M4 SD and some other stuff, head up north to meet with friend who only started playing yesterday. Get halfway (3ks) there and he dies, spawns at Cherno and wants to meet at Balota.

So I head back there, get to Cherno where he is lost, fill up on water, meet random guy with M16, he turns out to actually be friendly, we talk, then go on with business, I think that he is either going to kill us or I kill him, I shoot at him, forget th change to FAL, forget to reload weapon -> only three bullets in mag. Run out before he dies, turns out, kills both of us.


FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Fuck yes flying helicopters is awesome.

Found 5 or 6 tents full of everything my friends and I needed, then flew over cherno and killed one or two dudes.

About two hours of flight and only used up two thirds of the full tank.

Didn't even nearly crash once!

^^ Yep, my mate rents a Lingor Island server (search Green-Bear) which is hosted in New York, and I get about 200 ping but zombies and people still drop pretty well instantly (even on most servers Z's still run for a bit then drop sometimes).

Great map, I'm interested to try the other one as well. I'm currently on Takistan playing some normal Arma 2 OA.

Maybe time to take your guys advice and stick to private hives. Lingor looks pretty compact for some tight street warfare; most buildings look accessible. How do vehicles play out on this map?

Good, whenever you have a car you always feel like you'll be shot at on a full server.
It's compact enough for regular PvP and there are a lot more military loots so it's usually more dynamic.

First time I joined Lingor I was cratored by a hacker 3 times in a row.

I've just set up my own Lingor server, looks like it's the first NZ one. Will do a Takistan one soon too.

yea I knew that they had designed the map on the real like location, but I was surprised with the level of detail and that they had used actual real life buildings, like that giant red warehouse is missing the same panels as in the game and that barn with the green sliding door. I had thought they would have designed their own buildings and kept the look of the local region. Good to see the level of detail they went into.

Very nice find, pretty awesome, like how they made the south a coast instead of the river but fuck you berezino I have died there more than anywhere else. The last Zub pic is cool, even ruins get in, if the standalone is based off arm3 and has a nice interface this will be the game of the year imo.

Fucking hacker pricks. This game is so damn awesome, and I'm sure it'd still be quite popular if it wasn't for the knob jockeys coming along and spoiling the fun for everyone.

Instead of shit crap DRM, game devs need to invent a system where if you hack then all your personal details get posted online so people can hunt you down for being such a cnut.

Having a bit of a look at some War Z gameplay videos, it does seem fairly decent. It definitely gets its inspiration from Dead Island and Day Z, but that doesn't make it a bad game. If it's polished up it could be quite a good game.

They only registered the warz www in June 2012, there was no mention of it anywhere when they claimed to be developing it. They are liars, they were developing something else and then created WarZ after DayZ's success.

It's OK to take a good idea and evolve it. It's not OK to blatantly copy an entire concept from ideas, to artwork, gamestyle and even the name.

WarInc is a patchwork of poorly borrowed ideas, it's poorly made, the graphics suck hard and the hitboxes are the size of minivans.
It's fun for a blat because there are so many noobs so it's easy as fuck, all made to get you to pay for shit so you don't suck (but there is no need).
Go and play it, seriously, it's fun but geezus compared to the hardcore Arma style gaming that I like, it's for 12yo kiddies.

I migrated the DB to Bliss over the weekend and setup a second instance which i haven't made public and is just a proof of concept and testing. Still need to re-implement death messages and side chat, can do this on the 2nd instance without altering the public one.

The reason there are fk all hackers atm is because battleye detects the two common fagtools. There are still private bypasses but these are detectable theoretically, I just need to write the parser and all shall be revealed. Getting a bit sick of parsing things though, just finished a parser that highlights all the dodgy cunts on the server based upon history. Mass ban coming soon.

Thinking I might setup Panthera Island PVP server (starting gear: NVG, RF, M240, DMR, CoyoteBP) limited to 30 players just to see what happens. Will alter the spawn tables and put in some gear, remove others (no thermal). Might be fun

It will reduce the impact that hackers have on the game too, you won't be so worried about them if you spawn with a full kit, and them being able to spawn in gear will be irrelevant. I will probably put rmod on and having some different vehicles spawn. Might make it so vehicles reset to full health every map restart. Probably will need to reset location and inventory as well.

Ill start on it tommorow
Use Bliss. Not sure about anti-rocket. Tungle is a community. DayZ Control Centre might appeal to you, it privides a front end for Blizzard which is a fork of Bliss, it is n00b friendly and has an installer which sets up the mysql and apache mostly proconfigured. But I would recommend you don't use these as it is better to understand what is actually going on and how everything works, in which case be prepared to spend many hours learning. Server performance is directly proportional to cpu power. Sort out your affinities, I use a script. Watch your logs, especially kicks for script restrictions. Use the community banlist.

It'd be easier if you asked me questions rather than me provide you with random information.

how about esp hacks?  supposed to be ones that dont use scripts, can u detect those?
Hackers can, by exploiting the game engine, download files from the game server's file system providing they know what the path is. This is very bad. This is normally used to download the servers config in order to get the rcon password and is the reason why admins obfuscate the name of the config so that hackers can't find it. Hackers can also do this to other players, and download files. Lets just say it works both ways, files can be downloaded from the hackers too, in theory ;-)

Yeah for sure. those tips already help.

Im following this guide to get my head around things for now..

My plan is to use a dedicated apache/mysql that the forums use.

The server im setting up now is just a training exercise so im bound to mess it up and have some weird lagg or w/e.


Can you add me to steam/msn? link below.

Should I get DayZ? I've been wanting to play it for ages but my pc was down. Now it is up and running, it seems like i've missed the boat a bit wit the influx of hackers. Am I wasting $40 to get arma 2? Should I wait for the standalone game or check out this WarZ game?

Play WarInc before considering WarZ.

The stand alone DayZ is just around the corner, I'd hold off now if I was you and maybe get borderlands2 or roll back into Bf3 instead.

I'm sucking ass at the moment in Bf3. Am looking over towards xcom at the moment. I've got so many damn games to catch up on. So little time and money.

Xcom is good, its a lot like chess with guns. But it wont be long until DayZ is here.

Has the release date for dayz  been set?

Just replayed the original xcom. Awesome nostalgia.

From what I read, They have promised to drop something before the end of the year. Judging by the progress, I'd say it will be right at the end of 2012.

The bizarre thing I've found with hackers so far is that if you use the female skin, they magically appear around you wanting...

Then when I speak they're like oh... umm, we'll drop a box and leave in peace.

So does anyone know when the GetSome DayZ servers will be upgraded to 1.7.4.4?
Been playing on the Orcon servers, and it's been chewing my download.  Want to play unmetered!

Yea the public servers hardly get used these days due to the fuck ass hackers.

I'd like to unleash one of Australia's finest on all of those pricks and see them hack this bloke.

It's a real pitty too, as I love Chernarus, but most of the private hives tend to use the newer (smaller) maps.
