Lost Huey, little bird and off road jeep, took nearly all day to fix up an ATV.. drove through electro and Cherno with the bean warz raging, have got as far as green mountain looking for jeep respawn, all in all pretty shit day, thanks for asking!

in fairness anyone who hasn't run round electro / or cherno at night, with it lit mainly by flares and loads of Z's spawned have missed one of the truly great horror experiences of Dayz, particularly when you get hemed in by Z's and the light slowly fades!!

tents are essential. i've managed to keep them going on busy servers all the time for ages, lost a good one last night which had a m4 acog innit which i was looking forward to using again and a few other tasty goods, but, cest la vie! non?

yeah, i'd recommend 108 Roderz.. it starts getting bright usually around 7pm GMT, if you play earlier it's always a full moon so the server is bright enough to move around without NVG's, it has its fair share of assholes & faces the same challenges all public hive servers do, but, I don't play anywhere else unless its completely dead, this last while it's been busy most nights there was around 50 on last night for most of the evening so gun fire could be heard ringing out all over the shop, sounded like there was a war going on..

Today for our mission, we decided to try and help players stop killing themselves because of a bad spawn on UK 108. Filled up a couple of alice packs with loads of loot from shops, placed a tent at "Suicide" lighthouse between Kamenka & kamarovo, stuck in it 10 maps, a load of water botttles, medical supplies, a few hatchets, etc etc.. came back a few hours later and there were 4 bodies dead around the tent - which was pretty much cleared apart from 5 maps! so looted all the dead bodies back into the tent for others to find.. Back, to the drawing board.

Yeah UK108 gets my vote, I play on it all the time, though you really shouldn't get attached to your gear as wankers usually turn up like flies to shite as soon as more than twenty are on the server, though the recent addition of Gotcha to the server has greatly improved the situation to how it was recently. Last night someone pretty much emptied the server with this [see image]. I told the others it was probably just bullshit and played on, but we went from around 48 players to 7.

on the subjct of backpacks, could we not have a simple permission system, a simple y/n to alow other players access to them - if they are on the back of a living person? same for cars with a driver sitting in their seat? k thx bye..

Hey could any of you community Dev whizzes get the torch to work on the M4A1 Holo like it does on the M4A3 CCO? pretty please? sugar on top, best christmas prezzie eva please? . i've been playing this game for ages and i've only just found one for the first time. * *sty if posted before, I did try to search, honest..

why the fuck won't fires warm me up in Namalsk? i've now got sick twice, because apparently sitting ontop of a fucking fire doesn't warm you up..

wow, well i'm glad you really enjoyed scenario one Heiduk, but it just sounds like an awful fucking unnecessary grind of shitness for two hours imo, as someone else stated earlier, they should not extend beyond the visual range of a player and should be line of sight, job would be a good un..

Oh well, I guess when I lose it, thats fair enough. If they are taken out completely in 1.7.5 I expect it to be replaced by which ever variant they intend to use replacing it in my backpack, until then it's my go to gun for hunting..

My TrackIR has been lying gathering dust for years, I now just use the left alt and mouse to move my head ingame now, works perfectly imho..

hope they are, tbh I think they were a great idea that was poorly implemented, they just need to be line of sight, as in if there is any obstruction between the viewer and the peripheral dot, say like a tree, wall etc etc, then they should not show..

i've had one now for about 5 weeks, no problem using it all, though it still produces about as much tears as the poster above..

did you not get the memo OP? Number 1 rule of Dayz - dont get attached to your gear..

a few good men died last night then! I lost a 47 day character, shot as I was putting food and water into a neab eaters back pack who we had picked up and were sorting out with a gun and some essentials.. only iinconvenienced me for about 5mins & got all my stuff back and was inaction again in the blink of a tear filled eye..

#Sleepy is wrong don't listen to them, if you play on Vilayer hive servers your items can be brought across different Namalsk servers - though I think their hive was attacked and had to be reset recently..

<p>Hopefully someone can help me!!<br /> <br /> the problem is this.. I get the same shitty performance in Namalsk that I used to get in DayZ until I started using a Ramdisk. So I assumed that the solution would be to add both the @namalsk + @ DayZ_Namalsk folders to my ram drive.<br /> <br /> Thing is though, I really don't think that the game is using the ramdisk. i've added the following to the "additional launch parameters" through DayZ commander -mod=D:\@namalsk -mod=D:\@DayZ_namalsk "D" being my Ramdisk,<br /> <br /> However even if I change the additional launch parameters to -mod=Z:\@namalsk -mod=Z:\@DayZ_namalsk "Z" being a nonexistant drive, the game loads and playes the same as with the correct additional Launch parameters.. any help would be greatly appreciated, would be super sweet if I could get it to run as well as DayZ does using the ramdisk.. <br /> <br /> So I guess, what am I doing wrong? how do I solve this?</p> Edit - I solved this myself! thanks anyways.. How I solved this.. I deleted the 2 Namalsk folders in the default install location.. joined a Namalsk server and the game loaded. Next step I deleted the 2 folder on my ram disk and tried to rejoin server = Failed.. game is is definately using ramdisk..

OK.. i'll just add my Namalsk woes in this existing thread, hopefully someone can help me!! the problem is this.. I get the same shitty performance in Namalsk that I used to get in DayZ until I started using a Ramdisk. So I assumed that a solution would be to add both the @namalsk + @ DayZ_Namalsk folders to my ram drive. Thing is though I really don't think that the game is using the ramdisk. i've added the following to the "additional launch parameters" -mod=D:\@namalsk -mod=D:\@DayZ_namalsk "D" being my Ramdisk, However even if I change the additional launch parameters to -mod=Z:\@namalsk -mod=Z:\@DayZ_namalsk "Z" being a nonexistant drive, the game loads and playes the same as with the correct additional Launch parameters.. any help would be greatly appreciated..

indeed m8, imma attached to my wee UAZ as well!! camp got raided the other night.. not bad though, its lasted about a month!! lost a quad & a gaz (I think its called?) but I got away with my precious UAZ. just wish I could find the white UN one again!!

So.. I log into my local server to be greeted with the select gender screen. i've a character alive on this server going on two weeks so i'm a bit wtf? log out and back in again to be greeted by the same screen. I think oh well, que sera sera. Choose my character and spawn in komorovo in the pitch dark. I remember a sneaky wee camp down in kemenka i'd found ages ago, though I haven't been down south on this server in over a week & run to check out if the three tents are still there, for a quick re-up on the essential shit like NVG's. Get to where the camp should of been and nothing is there. it's a long haul to get back to where my UAZ was parked where I logged out yesterday & i'm wondering is it worth going to all the trouble to make my way back there in the pitch dark only to find nothing there. Could the server have started over again? even though its a public hive?

has happened to me twice, on one particular server. abandoned said server (was in US so no doubt desync issue) and it hasn't happened again. only play on a UK server..

yeah... know that feeling, i'd a day 28 character die in a bizzare tracktor explosion near Berezino medical tents.. re spawned in frigging Kamenka - ran the whole way along the coast road - only stoping for food & drink in Elektro to loot my body. The server auto restarted just as I reached the outskirts of the city so lost everything... still hurts even thinking about it!!
