If you can, copy the entire error message you receive in full and post it.

EUROPA server fills up daily. It's in your timezone and they have a teamspeak server that you could use to group up with others.

You will also need the DayZ mod files, free download, available on steam here. Hope this helps :)

Check out the vanilla server list The high pop servers from this list would be DayZ EUROPA or US434

CCG vanilla server recently had a pop crash, I think they lost a bunch of data or hard reset the server. Disorderly Conduct server pop is increasing, lightly modded from what I have seen (starter kit with winchester, water and antibiotics). Musty Gaming run a couple of vanilla server from the US, should be playable, but pop is low atm. Have you tried to approach the admin(s) of US 434 about your ban? Have you been banned from other servers? Could they be sharing a ban list?

Be sure you're attempting to connect to servers running the same version of the dayz mod that you're using.

If you're really content with mass farming pumpkins and flare gun fireworks I'd go for a quieter server. Musty's US1 is highly populated with PvP players. I managed to attend the BBQ and meet a few people and it was a pretty funny scene. I only showed up for the inevitable shitstorm and was in no way let down. The explosions by flare light was a awesome way to go out. The chaos upon returning to Otmel island was exactly what I expected to happen for this event on this server. Hungry bandits that caught wind of the bbq were picking off the returning friendly party goers once they killed off what security was present at the bbq. If you chose to host a similar event on the same server I'd definitely attend again, with friends, for the inevitable shitstorm :)

Too many voices at once. From what I see you're not muting any of your channels, so if you were attempting to talk to someone in game while your mates in ts are chatting away, could cause confusion. Confusion in dayz results in death. Only tends to happen if you're playing with a few people in a group or one really chatty type.

Nice to have it all in on one key, but I can see this causing confusion if say you're negotiating with someone you just bumped into and your buddies in ts are asking you for locale. Has this happened to you or do you have a work around it?

You can have a multi-button comms setup. Assign a 'toggle speaker mute' button in ts and just hit it if you need to communicate in game via direct.

*sigh* I feel your frustration. This is nothing new, but at a high due to their script subscriptions being useless.

Emu's just went down a couple of notches in my book.

Don't devalue the long con. This would no doubt be a highly used tactic in a real life survival of the most willing to adapt situation. Take it as a lesson to lift your game.

Any other games suffering from the same issue?
