Uncle Zed

Gotta find a server with less people on it. :) Luckily for me, even on busy servers, I've never been killed right at spawn. If I did, I'd probably leave that server and not come back.

Sometimes when you spawn, the weapon in your hand isn't selected. As it's been suggested,hitting F selects the weapon (or other things that can be used, like empty cans or smoke nades.)

A re-write for ArmA 4? :)

DayZ has killed gaming or me too. Since I started playing DayZ, I can't play any other game because this game ROCKS!

I've got a vanilla server that might interest you. Search for KillinZedz thee browser or click on my signature.

Don't like Chocolate? Come try some VANILLA! :)

I've got a few.. :)

Sounds good. Look forward to seeing you on the server!

The sun is rising on the server. Now is the time to jump on and experience it!

The Killin Zedz gaming community has been around for a couple of years, formerly as "GrossKopf's Servers", then as "No Smacktards". We initially ran servers for the alterIW mod for MW2. From there we progressed to the IW4M and IW5M mods for MW2 and MW3. A couple of months ago I shut the whole thing down due to members who didn't want to donate to help pay for the servers, and because of rampant cheating and asshattery, some of which was perpetrated by the developers themselves! I'm here to revive the community in the DayZ mod, the most awesome game I've played to date! I've set up 2 St Louis servers. Complete details about the servers and why they are so friggin' awesome can be found here: http://dayzmod.com/f..._hl__killinzedz and here: http://dayzmod.com/f..._hl__killinzedz. One of our servers is modded. It has new bases, all the junk/blockades/wrecked vehicles removed. There's an all new Stary Sobor, tons of vehicles, starting loadouts, custom loadouts for donating members, soldier, suvivor and bandit AI roaming the map and more. The second server is pure stock dayz. Name tags, crosshairs and waypoints are all turned off. Third person is on and it's a standard day/night cycle (-10GMT) so we have something for everyone! I'm looking for members of all ages. I'm also going to need admins eventually as the server becomes more popular. Obviously the community will be more US based than anything else due to the location of the server, but if you've got a decent ping to the server and want to become one of us, visit the community at http://killinzedz.net. Signup and post a general "Hello" message in our introductions forum. You will need to apply for the community via the "Applications" link on the homepage, and you will need to be accepted before becoming an official members. Thanks and I hope to see you soon!

Updated the original post again to include information about our new second server.

You could give this one a try: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/130753-killinzedz-chernarus-hardcorescoff-3pon-wpoff-choff1761103419-veteran-private-hive-hosted-by-killinzedznet

It was an old rule cut and pasted from a previous post and it has been altered, but I would appreciate this reply, along with the last two to be deleted. Thanks.

Can't get registered how? Does the registration link not work? Not getting the confirmation email? *edit* There was an issue with my forum's registration that I was unaware of. It's been fixed.

It just went online less than an hour ago. I have another Chernarus server that is modded, with vehicles, starting loadout and all, but this one is stock vehicles, stock starting loadout (no weapons, a bandage, etc...). It will be Whitelisted, but right now since it's just starting, I don't have the whitelist turned on.

It's not a DayZ problem. It's BattlEye Extended Controls. I set up my messages through the scheduler.xml file. I just can't get the timing right on it.

There's 5000 servers out there. You can't find one that fits your gaming preferences?

The DayZ standalone is not going to be released soon. The Alpha is possibly slated to start in June, then you have closed and open betas, then the release. I'd be surprised to see it released in September. I'd think that November/December is probably a more accurate estimate. There are servers on the public hive and then there are private hive servers. The public hive servers are the original DayZ game. No modifications. No items upon spawning, items are retained from one server to the next. Private hives allow server admins to edit the maps, add items, give starting loadouts and more. There's a server for everyone in DayZ, be it find all your own stuff from the start, or begin with some basic weapons and tools. Definitely worth getting.

Anyone? Bump...

They shouldn't go as fast as cars (I never paid attention..). They do make some noise and they DO attract zedz. Sure, they're easy to repair... they're bicycles.... Oh, and flying is easy. :)

If you have a good ping to my server in St Louis, MO USA, we've got friendly folks ready to help bambi's!

In the north end of the map you have a couple of airfields and Stary Sobor. All those locations generally have military loot. I've got a customized Stary Sobor on my server with plenty of military loot. The north is where the cool people hang out. :)

Mine's got all that. :)

When you see spawn locations for bikes on the various website, it's not a guarentee that they will be there. First off, by default, there's a 60% chance that the bike will spawn (same for all vehicles), then there's a limit to the number of bikes that can spawn on one map by default. On my server, I have custom spawn points for all vehicles and I have bikes all along the coast. They are very common. I also placed a number of bikes in small villages throughout Chernarus. All of my vehicles are respawned on Sunday mornings and start will full repair and fuel.

I bought Arma 2 when it first came out, but only played about 15 minutes. The controls were overwhelming to me so it sat in my list of Steam games for a long time until I happened upon a DayZ video. After watching that, I bought OA and set up DayZ and never looked back! I've probably got a total of 30 - 45 minutes playing time on Arma 2. This mod is definitely worth getting and it's worth spending the money for Arma 2 and OA.
