Endgame content in Standalone
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to Inception.'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
your new "updated" post sounds like it is asking for a harder more refined version of the game. As we all know the developer stopped adding content to the Mod so that he could push forward and dedicate more time to the standalone. What we currently have is a small percent of what the end product "standalone" will have. The standalone is and will be yours/our answer to more content. We just have to wait for it to release. -
Endgame content in Standalone
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to Inception.'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
What do you hope for? If they added some kind of super zombie that required you and 20 other guys to kill and fRm artifacts to assemble a flaming sword to deafeat. Would that make you happy? Or perhaps The Players can work together to complete a quest line that leads towards a miracle drug that is used to cure all zombies and return them to there previous uneffected state? Or! We use eyes of zombies to open a portal to a world inhabited by zombies and ruled by mythical dragon! Only way back to our world is to kill it! Or maybe your character just wakes up and the infection turns out to be just a dream forcing the player to take on a sim type game. -
Your opinion on scarcer food and harsher temperatures.
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to xx_fr0st-w0lf_xx's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You cant survive off of eating your gun and drinking your bullets. You can have all the guns in the game and all the ammo you could ever need, but once your food and water starts flashing you can say good bye to that m4a1 cco d and all those stanag SD clips. -
People overreacting about Namalsk?

People overreacting about Namalsk?
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to morgan32's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Opinions are like ass holes. Everyone has one. Its a great map if you are looking for a change. Unlike all the rest of the maps survival on this one is much harder and makes it so you have to change up your style. In cherno I can gear up with all tool belt supplies, Alice pack, canteen and food/drinks in less then half an hour and get an AK/AKM from one of the main cities or one of the three air fields.In the 20+ hours I have invested into Namalsk I have died more times to starvation and dehydration then I have to other players. I have never been able to complete my tool belt. Sure weapons are common, but good luck using that AKM you just found if you are dead from lack of food/water. Also your temperature will only drop if you A. Go into the water for a prolonged period of time or B. go into one of the snowy areas. Which if you use the Dayzdb/map/namalsk you will clearly see which areas are snowy due to there White color on the map. At the end of the day the loudest people are the minority. Go huff and puff all you want, the 1000's of people who do enjoy this map will remain silent (unlike myself) and continue playing the challenge that is Namalsk. Also consider my 20+ hours of Namalsk a fraction of my time playing Dayz. Ive been playing religiously since May. -
Calling "friendly!" in towns
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to flether's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
The second day I had this game a buddy and I that I had over for a weekend of lanning were in the northern firehouse in Electro. We noticed two guys running around outside so we took up a position. THey bother noticed inside and started yellling friendly. We dropped our guard and moments later they came running in shooting. Later that day different server. The hangars at balota airfield. Buddy and I were lootting the hangars and we catch two guys running around looting the adjacent hangar. THey approached us yelling friendly!! dont shoot! momenta later I was dead and my buddy was standing over both there bodies. Fool me once shame on you! fool me twice shame on me!! Now if you yell friendly I will shoot you in the fucking head then hide your "friendly" body. -
Are low value loot spawns worth looking in?
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to thezoq2's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I found a M4a1 cco SD and 2 mags in a low value military.. Usually only find shotguns and akm/ak74's in low value military and the odd m4a3 cco. So yes all values are worth investigating if you are in need of something that spawns at the particular spot -
Please dont let the DayZ mod die yet.... SA is (said) to come!
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to Serious Stan's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Wtf is this? The mod is very much alive. we have thousands of servers up and running with anywhere from 0-40 players in each of them. Rocket said when he told us about the standalone that he would continue to develop and fix known bugs in the game. He hasnt been dedicating as much time and power as he was before confirmation of the standalone, but he has continued to work on both. As for the standalone taking months for it to release. We were told end of october/beginning of November for a release date. Scratch october off the list and cross your fingers for november. In the mean time go play the free mod with the thousands of other fans who are continuing to support and enjoy the beautiful game mod that is Dayz -
Which games did you abandon for DayZ?
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to Octopus0nFire's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My girlfriend upgraded her PC and bought Arma2 Just so she could "spend" more time with me. Not sure if it worked since we play on the same server but are never together. Anyways Starcraft2 Diablo3 Battlefield 3 Minecraft Then quit dayz out of frustration (debugging after joining every server) and now minecraft -

Was reading a post earlier in the day about why people first started playing Dayz and how they were introduced to it. I feel that the story on why Rocket first tried Arma2 and why he felt arma2 was the best possible engine for a game like dayz. I realize that the easy scripting is most likely directly related to why he chose it, but how did he come up with the idea to make it into a zombie survival game and where did the idea come from. Also much like DOTA, rocket made this game originally for himself and a small group of friends and due to its rapid growing popularity decided to continue adding more content along with bug fixes. Rocket may not see this post, but if he does I'd love to hear his story. Also if this was already asked in an earlier post or if rocket had already come out and told the community I apologize for my ignorant spam and would greatly appreciate a link. Thanks

It sure as hell better not be happening in anyway what so ever. Thankfully what he is saying isnt true and cant happen. Atleast it isnt an option through the company we lease our servers through.

Orly? sorry to bust your bubble but this isnt true. I am owner of two private hives and I have never seen a feature that allows us to do this. Also if this was true in anyway. If I Roll back the server to an earlier save point to before buddy gets killed then doesnt every other player get rolled back as well? Wouldnt that anger the people that werent affect by the hacker? Sorry but it isnt that easy. next time try to atleast make it seem like you know wtf you are talking about before failing to help someone out. -Eracist

Whats wrong with sidechat?
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to sostronk's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
We have side chat enabled in the two servers that we own. Both of course are private hives which allow for more freedom then the official hives. We find that the side chat promotes two things. Deception along with friendly players A lot of the time we find that people tend to lure other players with the claim of teaming up and fair play. We find that players have a tendency to troll other players using the chat, but for the most part we find that it brings other players closer and promotes team work... something that people frown upon in this game. -
Why do most clans require 18+ players
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to BwobBwub's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Once you hit a certain age mommy and daddy cant control you. I myself want older clam members due to there availability as well as reliability. Also great thing about the internet is you can lie your ass off and no one will know.. -
The best solution to your problem is. Stop leaching off of open wifi's and spend the $50 a month on a better connection.

End game gear lol!. Takes only half an hour to an hour to get "end game gear" Stop off at a grocery store find a backpack, then head to one of the many barracks and find gun.. end?

So inland spawn points how about it?
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to electroban's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You already do spawn at novy sobor... You sometimes spawn inside a house that you dont have access to and are forced to glitch through the wall to get out. -

DayZ is a joke in its current form
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to seanmcloughlin7's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I seriously wonder just how over exaggerated your story is. I read these QQ/Whiney rants all the time on these forums. I can guarantee Ive played longer and more then half the QQ/whiney people like you have and NEVER have I experience such a sad SOB experience like you and many others claim to have. -
whats next for dayz soon ?
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to dgeesio's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/10jzg3/survive_dayz_mod_ready_for_stress_testing/ Is the future of the Dayzmod. Rocket said so himself that he is hoping that more members of the community continue to assist with supporting the community with updates and content while he continues to push forward with more important tasks. IE Standalone. -

man duck this ship
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to Eazy-Makaveli's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
- wasnt fun. it is what you make of it. - 90% of the time was running. Learn to find vehicles so that running isnt an option. - loot did not always appear in barns and other buildings. Loot doesnt appear in barns/buildings unless someone was in that area previous for it to spawn. if loot isnt in a barn run 100M away from the barn and it will spawn. - zombies end up running faster than you and hit you from 10 meters away. Zombies are much slower then survivors. I can crouch run away from zombies and not get it. Also getting hit 10 metres away? I would say this is caused by lag - you bleed, gotta bandage but the zombies run in zigzag and are hard to shoot due to 10-15 fps. best way to lose zombies is by going through houses with a back entrance or by exploiting pine trees. - stiff controls. Customize your controls. When I first started I had the hardest time getting past the controls,. after playing it for three months the controls are the least of my problems with this game. - stiff movements. ASk mom and dad to by you a modern computer. Decent rigs start from 700+ - lag. Have any torrents going? Maybe its time to look into a new ISP - low ass fps that i have NEVER had i any other game. What are you running for a CPU? This is most likely related to a lower end/older computer/ -
Cars still disappearing?
Pennyworth (DayZ) replied to xxblink's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
before we switched our server from Cherno to Lingor we used to have this problem. Server would do its scheduled restart and all vehicles and tents wouldnt be where they were left. After another restart the vehicles/tents would appear back in the spot they were left. We found the easiest way for us to ensure that both returned after a restart was to schedule a second restart after the first one. That way tents and vehicles would reappear and our player base wouldnt have to wait for an admin to come on and notice that all was missing. after switching our server over to to a private hive and being able to use modified files that were prohibited by the Dayz server enforcement douches we havent had this problem at all. I'd suggest ditching the main hive and playing on a more stable/better supported second party hive.
