He didn't say they would be, pretty sure that comes under the 'pretty much' he stated.

A more helpful way to get people unbanned?
rossums replied to Welch (DayZ)'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
What a waste of time. Once a poster can formulate a legible thread that isn't a waste of time they will get help but instead it's always some biased shitstorm of a story about how they would never do anything bad and it's all a mistake. -
Don't even make third-person an option for DayZ standalone
rossums replied to Pomegranate's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Yeah, that's totally stupid. Avoiding PvP, a very large aspect of the game, is just going to hurt you in the long run. The other players certainly won't care that you don't want to PvP, they shoot first and ask questions when you're a pile of zombie-chow on the ground. -
This is what I am looking for in a private hive.
rossums replied to klesh's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
I think they are sorting somethingm, it was going up and down earlier when I was applying. The teamspeak is active and so far all the guys have been brilliant, the teamspeak to get yourself whitelisted is: ts.balotabuddies.com There are admins on there that can whitelist you. -
It already does get rainy and sunny. The rain currently reduces visibility slightly and quickly increases the rate that your temperature drops.

I'd check Balota Buddies. I just started again and I've been playing with them for the past few hours, brilliant servers so far. Good admins running good old Chernarus, the only thing different are a couple of extra buildings scattered around, nothing silly like extra military spawns though. They were looking for extra players here for the new US server: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/113343-we-need-some-assholes-on-us46/ http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/111771-they-gave-me-keys-to-a-us-server-whitelisted-come-in/ Ran by a few of the forum moderators here and a couple of other guys, so good admins and whitelisting. Hope you find a good server! -
You can use the Steam version perfectly fine. EDIT: Use DayZ Commander: http://www.dayzcommander.com/ and you can install DayZ with the click of a button.

Apologising for killing a bandit? You deserved to get shot for such a carebear attitude. He was a bandit. He was killed. The world is just.

dayz_anim' requires addon 'CAMisc_fix_A2
rossums replied to ferdis's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
You need to install all the latest updates and everything, I had the exact error about 5mins ago. It's a pain in the ass. -
I know what's wrong but I'm not going to help you because I'm a total dick like that.
-
Can't you just drag it out the way?
-
It will just turn into a shitty Call of Duty 'Plant Claymores because I can't kill you any other way'-fest.

I can't pick up hatchets and use them.
rossums replied to analogik's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Once it goes into your inventory it's classed as a tool and goes into your toolbelt. You must remove it fromt he toolbelt by right-clicking on it to use it as a weapon. To pick it up you just pick it up like any other item, there should be no problem. -
How long will the service last? Are the guards at least competent in case any bandits were to show up?
-
Haha, I'm joking. I wouldn't waste any satchel charges if I were to ever find one. Now grenades on the other hand... :D
-
Satchel Charges would be the best bet. I'd totally bring some satchel charges. The easiest way would be a lovely round through the head to either the bride or groom, that would certianly be a show-stopper - not much your security could do to that.
-
How are you going to handle the fact that people are (hopefully) going to start shooting everyone? ENTERTAIN ME.

A few questions about what you would like to see in a DayZ stream
rossums replied to xKaiser's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
1. I'd aim for 1080 but 720p if you need to, those with lesser bandwidths can run it in a lower quality. (I'm sure places like TwitchTV have the normal 360p, 480p and 720p etc.) 2. Bit of both, 'bandits' that just kill people for no reason are annoying as are stupid carebear heroes that ruin gameplay by doing nothing. 3. Chernarus mainly (It's what people are most familiar with) but any map really. 4. I like talking during the video if you are with a partner but I hate people who talk throughout the entire thing, it just means you can't hear what is going on. 5. Music during a game like DayZ is annoying, sound adds a lot to the game and is almost as important as what you can see. 6. I'd stream for whatever location you are in. Try stream for around 7-8pm in your own timezone, it means most people are back from school or their job and are relaxing. 7. Whatever. That's what I personally like in a stream, hope it helps. -
Satchel Charges on the roof would be the best bet. it will be like the Serenity Now raid in World of Warcraft. They were holding a funeral for a deceased guild mate and friend, it got raided and it was a massacre. A hilarious massacre!
-
That normally only appears on super easy mode, it's a pain in the ass - depends what difficulty the server is set to.
-
PlayWithSix is crap anyway. Use DayZ Commander, much better and much easier to use. Link: http://www.dayzcommander.com/ It lets you update both Arma II and DayZ with the click of a button.

[DZwT] SAW vs Armed Squad, Rolling Skirmish (TrackIR too)
rossums replied to Trizzo's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Nice recording and some good gameplay. Nice to see someone actually use flares to their advantage, brilliant for lighting up an area and blinding NVG players. +1 subscribers -
For the standalone they are going to be implementing a lot more low-end 'home-made' type weapons like planks of wood or metal bars that are common in buildings - that will allow us to more effectively fight off zombies at the start. I'm pretty sure they said they were implementing a hand-to-hand combat system too although I'm not sure if that will be in from the very start. Edit: Should probably go a bit more in depth with the 'home-made weapons'. They are also talking about implementing a 'crafting' type system where you can perhaps add a few things together to make a slightly better weapon, these will obviosuly need materials but some of the more intricate items will require you to get help from another survival to put together too. There will be a lot more melee weapons, more sort of make-shift weapons like the ones I mentioned, just stuff you've been like 'Oh fuck! Zombie! Then picked up to hit the xombie.'

Think your good at flying the little bird?
rossums replied to Shadow Man's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Nope, that's just some text. No flying skills here. -
Haha, my favourite way to kill people too. I love how immediately called hacks after dying.
