what i'd like to see: work on audio ( #1 to hear Z's, and #2 fix that day1 problem of hearing people across the map combine ammo/munching etc due to some other player being near you) remove, or severely cripple, gamma adjustment (used to love stumbling in the dark, being forced to use torches, glowsticks etc from time to time) denser/more remote forests as mentioned above couple more basic vehicles (common gaz etc for road, rare but offroad/easier to hide uaz)

eating canned food much quicker/easier/cheaper than preparing fresh food

what fix do you believe is required for private hives?

just checked it again right now. could use two steam accounts on same dayz server fine (using single install of dayz through steam) the character name at the main menu stays the same regardless of what steam account i was logged in as, but in-game it was different characters.

logging out in steam, then logging in with another steam account...allows two people here to use two separate characters on same machine. the character (i.e. equipment/clothes) you see at main screen i think are representative of whoever played last on the machine, not necessarily who is currently logged into steam. But once you join server...it will be under the character associated with that steam account

i hope they are persistent. walk behind another person? crawl along prodding dirt with knife?

yawn, yet another another thread on tent persistence. i put several tents down last saturday, and they were still there this morning (i.e. survived wednesday maintenance)

smersh backpack - just found one in outhouse

i would have thought the quarry NE of the NWAF would be a go'er (not that i've managed to find any there myself yet)

well that would be funny if all these disappearing tents attributed to persistence problems, were indeed still on the server but popping up elsewhere :) should put a message on your server asking people to contact you if they lost a tent... confirm the contents match what you saw, then you two can pass on coords to the dev, of where the tent was placed, vs where it magically appeared. might help dev identify a cause.

server renting companies (vilayer at least) have made persistence OFF an option again Due to the problems with persistence and the master/slave servers we have been given permission to enable the persistence tool again, you can now remove persistence from your server if you are having problems with loot.

with persistence OFF, the deployed tents will be gone also after a restart. with persistence ON, there are currently issues...some servers seem to maintain (persist) deployed tents after a restart some/most of the time...others are not at all. hence them 'being bugged'. and being wednesday "server maintenance day"...tents may be wiped anyway (unless packed up and held on a character)

well to add to that: even if the OP has a good connection, his target could be a 400 'HPB' so if killing people is your primary reason for playing , you would need to ensure you're on a server that kicks people with >150 (i made that number up) pings.

no ego here cupcake. mods agreed they needed to be merged, clearly you do not - go get yourself a box of tissues until you are a moderator

look you pathetic creature, my comment #45 was responding to one of the other hundreds of threads whinging about tent persistence admins merged it into here grow the fuck up, my posts in this thread have been trying to establish a correlation of server type/timings etc
