Come back 28 dayz later. See how you feel.

This happened to me last night on the EU9 =BoB= server. I've pasted from another Game Forum that I visit more than I should, anyhow here goes... Last night I found myself with no ammo, so the only thing left to do was run, run, and run some more. I was up in the hills on my own North of Elektraoski or whatever its called. By the time I reached the town I had about 10 Zombies after me. I headed East to the other large town Chernogorsk picking up Zed's along the way, I passed through a village where some poor bugger had lit a flare to see what he was doing, he saw me coming and fired off a few shots thinking to help me when it dawned on him that it was probably not a good thing to do, he legged it... I continued on my route with about 20 odd Z's hot on my tail, by the time I reached Chernogorsk, I must of had, "I don't know how many" Zombies after my blood. A couple of turns around the industrial area, (by this time I was very thirsty and needed to eat) but it was impossible to stop for a snack, so I climbed up one of the chimney stacks, in the hope that I would have time to eat and drink and get on the chat to ask for help. No way Hosay, they all climbed up and ate me alive. Defiantly one of the funniest game moments I've ever experienced. Truth... EDIT: I rejoined the same server just after posting in this thread and my character was alive at the bottom/near the chimney. Everything was the same = no ammo and my gear was still there... go figure. Thanks.

Good news...

I've yet to find a tent, I've got a knife, matches, map, compass, beans & coke (a cola) and all. I'm led to belive that they are found in the "out houses". Guess I'll keep on seaching, until then I supose I will sleep under the stars. Thanks.

"I lone wolf through the countryside for hours on end, and it's so totally worth it when you find that one other person out there being chased by zombies and then you shoot his leg out and he gets eaten. " Ooh, you are such a meany. I try to save/help them, 9 times out of ten I regret doing so. lol.

Are you sure about the flares in N°22 ? I've tried a few times (daylight) to no effect. Smoke grenades work every time. Correct me if I'm "incorrect" !

Cool, 1.5.5 was "problematic", thanks.

Well I'm not sure about that. I was killed by another player (he attacked me) in the fire fight I put about five shots into him, so I assume he died. I respawned and made it back to the area, the dead Zombies were still there in the same place where they fell, my attackers body was there as well, my body was not. I would be interested to know how it works for sure. That was back in Vs 1.3, I think.

Thank you Rocket for explaing the why's & for's. I have not seen anything like this "success" before. The only mod that comes to mind is RO back in 20?? I've made a quick fix, get up early in the morning and play 'French Time". I doubt that this "fix"will last for long, all my interwebz mates are joining the wave. Good luck to you cobber. If I may be so familiar. Thanks.

The server was running correctly Friday night. When I joined the server yesterday afternoon (Saturday) it was already out of sync, showing a time of 21.40 . Also it seemed to me that the leaderboards were reporting players that were not correct, (it felt like it was stuck at the point where the server went awol). Also the Zombie count was stuck at 109.

Yes & Yes Also I have a 120mhz active3D screen but I have not given that a go for the moment. I tend to use it only for single player, not mp.

I'll give you 10€s now (pre purchase). If that is not an option. One time purchase. Studio Development/Community friendly : tools. Studio Development/Community : run Servers. ----------------------------------------------------- Thanks.

Well the FR1 server was stuck at 11.00pm/night time when I tried to play this afternoon, also the Zombie count was stuck at 109, I was in-game but nothing was working as it should. I connected twice. I then joined another server, DE3 I think and that was working well. So, not a Master Server problem but local server specific I believe.

I have not been able to L/shift+RMB a waypoint on the Map since the last update. I was wondering has the ability been removed or is it a server side setting. My personal opinion is that it should not be possible to mark the map for others to see or even set a waypoint for yourself, after all its not so hard to take out the map or communicate with your buddies the map reference. What do you think guys ? Thanks.

I want to know who killed me, the repercution will follow. I've been killed 3 times today at, or nearly at spawn points, wtf. There was a whole pile of bodies. This sort of murder must be stoped. "Call teh Cops..."

No. One of the indespensible "aids" to locating fallen survivors and a pretty good indicator that something serious has happened, scan your horizon and be wary!

"Heres the hard part: if made and approached by a player that you don't personally know in real life, shoot him." This attitude is ruining the "spirit" of the game.

Something that I no longer do is hit the "enter key" to pick up/swop... The original (pistol or whatever) is lost for good, correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.

Thanks, I've been struggling with my backpack since they were introduced into ArmA, this little tutorial will help me struggle a little more. Good work,, now where did I hide my gawd darn green glasses...lol. Thanks, for a much needed post.

2nd post is a little happier. I managed to connect to a server, the only thing that I changed is to launch the game as Administratorr. I created a new "player" rather than using the default, this could be the reason that I was unable to connect the first time I tried to play.. I will get back and update if needed. Thanks.

Hi people, my first post is not a happy one. I am unable to join any server, getting stuck on "waiting for server to respond" screen. I can access the menu and re-spawn/abort, I can see the player list using the 'I' key, so the game is functioning. I have given it 10/15 mins or so befoe disconnecting. This is my first install of the mod, all taken from the download section of these very forums and launching using a modified ArmAII/CO launch "-mod=@dogz". Thanks...
