    New patch coming soon to dayz

    Sure, to the experienced players it makes no real difference, but to the new players spawning for the first time having no weapon reinforces the sense of vulnerability, It was one of the things that really impressed me when i first started playing, you're just dumped into this hostile enviroment with no means of protecting yourself, the rest is up to you.

    That doesnt mean we should encourage it even more.

    I'll just put this right here...http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/129266-sa-start-out-sickly/
  5. As statik says we have players from all over europe who play on the server just fine,jump on and give it a try. :)
  6. Pignapped!......sorry..
  7. Public servers are paid for and run by the players but they have to be registered with the DayZ dev team, and need to meet certain hardware requirements and agree to certain terms and rules (though not always enforced) A private server is also paid for and run by the players but theres no restrictions or rules, meaning they can change the mod to suit their needs, opening up the opportunity for lots of variations of DayZ. Spawning items on the public hive is strictly not allowed,

    SA: start out 'sickly'

    Id say simply get away from the coast as soon a possible, even as things are now hanging around on the coast is just asking for trouble. Also if theres more consequences for dying people might find hanging around a high pvp area in the hope of killing a few fresh spawns is not worth the risk,

    SA: start out 'sickly'

    Anything that makes people value their characters life more is good in my book.

    There was an excellent post in the suggestions section where fresh spawns start sick and unhealthy and have to get themselves back up to full health over time. I'd love this, might actually make people want to stay alive. EDIT: here's that post http://dayzmod.com/f...art-out-sickly/
  12. Its not perfect but i think it looks pretty good when configured right, certainly not on par with that arma 3 fog though.

    I didnt notice that, that is good news.

    Its not the effectiveness of the gun thats important, its the message it gives to new players to the game, Also i personally think spawning with less increases the feeling of vulnerability when you first start which enhances the whole experience.
  15. Yeah, just kidding man, i'm all for more variety of balanced guns, personally i just want to see a crap load of AK varieties and soviet weapons, but the odd bullpup would be cool too.
  16. Actually the fog script for arma2 has been out for a while, we also have it on our DayZ server.
  17. Ok, i see how it is.. bullpups are ugly as fuck! ha!
  18. I bloody love the CZ i do, nice shooting.
  19. I'll keep it simple, If the standalone was released in december it would of just been a slightly polished version of the mod, with the same engine and server architecture, and so the same problems with hacking and same limitations. Then they saw the opportunity to completely rebuild the game engine and go with a server architecture that will prevent the vast majority of hacking exploits, so what we are going to end up with is a totally new game. Yes we have to wait a bit longer, but it's going to be well worth it. and there's still the mod to keep people occupied till then.

    Apart from causing less damage when unconcious the other changes should make them harder, zombies were something to be feared in 1.7.5.1
  21. It shows up straight away for me just from typing PICNIC Are your filters all unchecked?

    New patch coming soon to dayz

    True its not going to change much, but i feel it will just push new players towards the KoS mentality, Its like "Welcome to DayZ, Here's a gun, go and kill someone."
