Hey guys, my good friend Slenderman has chucked up an Overwatch server for you all. It is based in Auckland, New Zealand but Australians should get a decent ping to it as well, especially compared to the US servers we have to play on. As far as I know it is the only Australasian server up at the moment and there are no Breaking Point servers so this should be awesome! The physical server is very powerful and has absolutely no issues hosting ArmA servers. The IP to this server is 114.23.56.48:2302 You can also filter for Slendermans game Anyone can join, it isn't whitelisted at the moment but it may have to happen eventually, we'll see how it goes. See you there!

I don't see what's so funny. The fact that the DMR was the most common long rifle in the game is fucking stupid and I doubt you'd just be able to run off after being hit by such a large round. Unless you're one of these kids that think they're hardcore snipers spamming 20 rounds in 5 seconds from 300m away?

This is a stupid comment, there are thousands of different rifles that can be considered sniper rifles. Yes, some will have high recoil but there are others that won't.

Stop playing on servers with crosshairs, sorted -_- Just another case of "I'm a call of duty noob that knows everything about firearms"

Zzz people are retarded. Stop being shit

Little do many people know but DayZ actually comes with an awesome game called ArmA. Maybe you could load that up some time and have a play around?

If you're going to play like that, stick to COD.

Respawning in the ocean, spawning inside a helicopter, walking off a 3ft ledge, crashing into a road block that doesn't render until you're 15m away.... DayZ, not even once

If you can't 'snipe' at anymore than 400m then you need to reconsider your skill set

I once played on a server that you could buy bases on... These bases had barracks, lockable gates and vehicles. Unless you were a part of the clan, you weren't allowed to touch anything and would get banned. It's safe to say that we made it living hell for the base owners

Loot cycling and server hopping is a major exploit and defeats the purpose of the game completely. It you want to hear up quickly then go and play the actual ArmA game

Misleading thread title... It should say that custom servers are bad or some custom servers are bad

I like it, it'll be much more dangerous for the bitches (not bandits) camping the coastal towns like Cherno and Elektro because they can easily be killed from behind

Servers with any more than 5 helicopters are just silly. If it were upto me, I'd remove helicopters completely

Please don't confuse coast campers with bandits. Bandits roam the north when kids camp the coast

OP is a moron and probably has never fired a rifle in real life

OP is a fucking moron and should be banned for such stupidity

No private hives is the best thing that can happen,tbh. These days I hardly care if I die because I know I can jump on another server and I've got a fully geared character already to go

I like both but the M40 is worlds ahead. The SVD is one of my favourite rifles of all time but the M40 outclasses it for long distance shooting. The SVD fits in the same class as the DMR, fast rate if fire with reasonable accuracy. The M40 on the other hand is a lot more accurate and the zeroing and added zoom make it a lot better for anything over 400m. Although the SVD is capable of hitting targets over 1000m (I've done it on wasteland) it really shouldn't be used passed 800m, it's amazing in the 200-500m ranges though

I blame all of the fuckwits that camp the coast.

No, no, no and no. This is a zombie survival game, not a military simulator. Go and play Vanilla ArmA, COD or BF3 if you want that stuff

I was playing with a friend I regularly play with and we decided to start fresh on a new server. I spawned near Cherno and found a double barrel and he says "If you kill someone with that, I'll get you a new computer", at the time I was playing on a laptop that got 15-20 FPS average and just laughed the thought off. 2 minutes later I spot a player and set off for him, I take him down and head into Cherno where I hear M4 shots. I spot the guy and sneak up to him and take him out as well. This guy was a reasonably geared bandit, full toolkit and 2 M4s on him. We take his gear and get the hell out of town. We then headed to Stary where I spot another player and kill him with my M4 and do a quick loot but just as we are about to leave I spot another player on the hill. I flank around and take him out as well. That night he went through all of his old computer parts and put together a whole new computer for me, even a monitor! It arrived two weeks later and now I play on 60 FPS :D TL;DR - Double barrel kills scored me a new computer. Oh and the crowbar is the worst weapon ingame

I hope you get axed in the back for being a dick and killing people gearing up. Stop being a bitch and kill geared people, up north and on a more level playing field

To much emphasis on military equipment

Please don't confuse bandits with 12 year olds camping the coast. I'm a bandit, I travel the northern reaches looking for gear but you will never catch me camping on the coast unless we hear of people camping the hills of Elektro in which case I may venture down to kill them. But yeah, bandits and kids camping the coast are different things. Otherwise, great wee guide you have there!
