Hi all. I've been playing days on a private server for a while now. Getting too easy,. I left the main hive because of too many dicks and assholes that shoot newcomers on the south beach, destroy vehicles, cheat, turn me into a goat then shoot me, etc. So, are there any servers you can recommend a server with "normal" bandits that at least have some reason for killing instead of killing for pain killer and a Makarov PM? You know - playing the game like it's really a survival game. Or everyone should shoot everyone else on site? thanks!

EDIT: It works! Just need the Toolbox. Then it works BETTER than before - you know what to fix exactly.

I also can't repair vehicles anymore (ATV, Tractor, etc). All going dark yellow and red - even when I have the parts - there is no repair option.

Hi all. I will LOVE if Dayz has NPCs, like in Stalker (or most games). - in the MOD or a future stand-alone. NPCs can be survivors (all friendly), bandits, or heroes (can offer a bandage or blood). Also possible for the server admin to set ratios. Something like 10 survivors, 2 bandits, 1 hero. Also provide some way to broadcast a general location where a bandit was last seen. This addition will add variety and be even more helpful in a future offline version of the game. Just to keep zombies from being the only things walking around when the players are gone. thanks!

I DO like to play online with real people the way most people play Dayz. That's just not always possible. If I didn't think Dayz was awesome the way it is, then I would not have bothered to register to this forum :D I looked at Warz, looks good. But after playing Arma 2, all other FPS looks like toys to me.

Hi all. Thanks again for the posts. All the points are taken.

Not an offline game? I have a LAN game running now and I'm the only one playing. This worked great for a long airplane ride :) The benifit will be more obvious in a offline stand-alone title.

I think you missed my point. Without NPCs, playing Dayz OFFLINE will be a very lonely place. When I said the admin can change ratios, I was referring to you - the one playing the game. Zeppa, what category should this thread go? Yes, I am new here. Thanks for the posts!

Hi all. I got the LAN server running on my PC and I'm able to see my server in gamespy in the localhost. - When I click on Multiplayer. So, how can I have my server viewable on the Internet so friends can join or connect a friend to my LAN server (without a VPN)? In the config.cfg, I have reportingip = arma2oapc.master.gamespy.com"; and BattlEye = 1; I don't expect this to be part of the main hive on DayzCommander. thanks! I really did try to search for an answer first.

Thanks. Which ports or where to find the specific ports? - I'm using the port I see on the Server Console. I added the port in the router and the windows firewall. Nothing. I think I'm missing some step to get the Remote function working. EDIT: It's working now an hour after doing the above! It seemed to have fixed its self.
