There are just as many cons on private hives as public ones,if not more Badmin,madmins,clan dominated,pay for weapons private hives just to name a few .

The K/D,zombie slaying thing. I guess the next step to making the standalone a marketing $uccess is to have a stats page like BF3,COD

Nobody in their right mind would rent a server when their in this state of disrepair. This morning I was doing a emergency morphine,blood run to my sons character and server after server the same,down,not working and rolling back to 1.7.6 same shite. We did find one server that was working and the three others that joined in had the same problems. 17 public servers and one functioning..yer..I wont to throw money on the ground....Ef that

Im getting the BF3ism as well "something went wrong"

Edit: none of the 1.7.6.1 public server are running now. 7 server of the above were down for three weeks at one stage( Hosted by Orcon) and now back up are hit and miss as to when they are working. The 1.7.6 servers have 10 players,and they are randomly working as well. Things don't look good for the standalone down this way anyway.

Well down this way. 17 public servers ,of that 10 are running 1.7.6.1 and the remaining are 1.7.6. Of the 10 1.7.6.1 servers only one is functional.I couldn't be bothered rolling back to 1.7.6

The game/app would just load quicker

Buff aggro and hearing. I was setting up a tent and got aggro zombies coming at me..WTF zombies spawning near me no matter where I am ..now we are talking.Those camping AS50 bush wookies will have to shoot and run with a horde of zombies on their ass...hahaha. And then the next time I log in, blind and deaf and back to the bush wookies paradise

The better the GPU/CPU and the eye candy that comes with it,the worse off you are in this game as Iv found out. I got sniped and was thinking ..How the frig did he see me in all that grass and shrubs?....Haxor Then my son told me.. dad,turn your graphics to low and the grass disappears,that's how he seen you.So I had the 7950s maxed out and couldn't see my son in the grass. Turned everything down to minecraft very low and it was like he was lying on the sands of a desert. I have an old Nvidia GT 9400 and Im better of with that than xfire 7950s..Go Figure

I found one last night in cherno and a can of mountain dew next to it.Drank the dew and kept on moving.

I just got sniped today after 54 day run. So I went back to my body and they hadn't touched a thing.Just sniped for something to do .

Not many servers to play on theses days. I see the NZ/Orcon servers are up today after being down for the last 3 weeks.Some of the AU#500 servers are just as unreliable. So this just leaves the privet hives and they are Wastelands with zombies.

Not far enough if you ask me. [NEW] - Cutting down trees now attracts zeds. There are no zeds in the forest...needs some,lots of. Killing/killed animals and cooking meat should also attract with in a particular range.

Id rather the animals that are there harder to hunt and kill. Why you stand there while I smack you in the head with an hatchet for moo cow?

The only fix Iv found is to load up my sons character and keep him on stand by. Worse thing is ,Iv found "the" spot.No one has found it in over a 30 day period,but only to find its gone..bugger

Firstly. I own the game and Ill play it how I like and its not for you to tell others how to play. 2nd) If you are to scared to come down from your tree fort(Elektro) and come out in to the open,then stay camping there and stop complaining. Now that Iv got the hang survival thing worked out,I have no need to go to Elektro or any other sniper/bush wookie fodder locations. So Im started a expedition from Kamanka to go around to whole map back to Kamanka.Been a changeling so far.Almost got killed by zombie at Sosnovka,very low blood and desperately hunting for meat to get my blood up,following tree lines and tops of ridges so not to expose my self. They tell there are some boats to be had at Berezino and I heard rumors of a mythical Island of the coast ...this true?..Oh wait,you wouldn't know.

It happen 3 times in row once and others were complaining in chat about it And I just got killed by/again a server hopping prick. Runs into a building after being shot at knowing there is only one way in...and we all know the rest. Iv not had this game for 2 week and can say that the game mechanics are wide open to exploitation. Iv played on some privet hives and almost trip over guns ammo,food at every turn,so their not for me,plus the issue of Badmins and Madmins running the servers just for them and their mates. Best bet is to wait for the standalone and if its still open to the same abuse,Im not going to buy it,Arma 3 yes

Its a nightmare. I found a goat at night and decided to kill it for the meat and was low on ammo and I had to use the axe to kill it. I had to go to a road,drop almost my whole kit.Pick up the axe and chemlight and kill goat.go back to piles of my kit.Drop axe,pick up knife,go back to goat,gut it and then go back and pick up my kit.

Im only play night time now to avoid the "Cod Deathmatch type of gameplay". One thing that needs a tweak is NVGs/scopes...a limited battery life and hard to find or removed from the game. So after camping for 20mins looking for some easy kills, the NVGs are now flat and all you have is flares, chem-lights and torch. Ill bet alot of snipers will wish they hadn't camped on that building/hill.Only now having flares, chem-lights, torch to find their way down after the NGVs have gone flat and sticking out like dogs balls.

The spawning system is awesome...for snipers and bandits. Just sit/camp at one of the predictable spawning locations/loot and let the game bring them to you.If the pickings slow down,just server hop for some more spawn kills. OP has a cool story when you leave out what is really going on.

Request sent on Skype. Steam.."you haven't set up your community profile"

Ill pass this onto my son and you might get an invite from cookiepannda or what ever he calls him self these days

Iv been killed 3 times in a matter of hours using this exploit. Examples. Someone shoots at me,I run up stairs knowing there is only one way to get to me..up the stairs and Ill nail them if they do come up stairs.. WTF..The player is behind me and kills me..how? Sees bandit going to house,takes pot shot,missed and there is only one way out of house..I can wait.. WTF..Bandit is now beside me and shots me. So now I know what "some players"are doing. Log-out,log-in to another server move behind player or what ever,log-out and then back into the server to be in the position you wish. There needs to be a cool down of 20mins longer before rejoining the same server or any in the future release of DayZ. Not sure if this comes under cheating or the theme of this thread...move or remove. Ask me..Its cheating,buts it a suggestion on how to stop it
