if it is incompatible ver on the main menu (of the game) it says what version you're running (most servers have their version in their title) you should be version 0.30.114008 if not youve activated the test servers in steam fix that in the properties tab on steam and unsub the beta and let it revert back to the standard version.

it's desync, i had it; called my ISP and they fixed my net perfect ever since.

I'd be around 3 but it's random really sometimes it's a lot other times it's none just depends how i feel like playing at the time and normally i approach people or stand out in obvious areas under the guise of being friendly so really depends who comes across me.

Spray paints are coming i believe, their use i have no idea.

I'm not against the servers existing at all but there should never be a friendly fire off option and killing should be the same as it is normally, just a way for like minded people to meet up (even though i feel it encourages KoS). honestly i'd kinda like a solo mode when (if) the zombies get done, are an actual threat and there are masses of them just to see how i do alone, but even then it's something i'd like to mess around with not something i would actively play in.

I don't dislike the idea all ideas are good (minus the bad ones :P) but then the question comes how long does it take for tooth decay to happen and whose character will live long enough to even have this happen some character has been alive for 15 years then all of a sudden his molars collapse on him, I like the idea it's just too infrequent for me to get behind i guess, where as hair growing and beards is relatively fast in comparison to dental hygiene. Something i would like though (kinda off topic but being a migraine sufferer myself) is looking to long towards the sun without sunglasses gives your character a headache, least sunglasses will then have a use other than just being badass haha

It's meant to represent focusing with human eyes seeing on a monitor you can't truly represent focus as there is no depth on a monitor and the normal focus or blur you get in games is not how human eyes work i think its a nice middle ground

lol you're playing the wrong game theres no shame in being a bandit (a core part of the game), the only shaming here is you complaining when he bested you :)

l4d2 combined with the sims, that's all you need to say i'm sure shes played L4D yeah? most girls i know that play dem video games love the L4D if not get her to play that first i guess haha Edit: oh and clothing customization bitches love the clothing customization haha

I'm sure they would love us all to buy multiple copies haha

C'mon guys this isn't a 1pp vs 3pp thread again, just stay on topic. I think you're right i've experienced the same thing with server titles being incorrect it could even just be the host changing it and forgetting to update the name *shrug* that is a terrible example as 3pp is in game already, it's part of the game and part of the mod if you don't like it you don't have to just don't play on 3pp servers (quite simple really) i dunno why it's so hard for people to grasp, we don't all have to agree all the time to get along as you are no more right than someone else with differing opinions on a purely preference based opinion seeing as what he enjoys is part of the game itself a hack comparison is silly seeing it's not a normal part of the game. both crowds are being tended too and we all have servers to play on so whats the problem? NOTE: i am saying this as a 1pp preferring player. can't we all just get along *cries*

yeah i lean towards realistic as to me the simulation aspect is what separates dayz from the masses of copy-cat games and the competitors tend to focus on balance / gameplay where as dayz's specialness is in the fact it is based on reality which is what makes it interesting to me and even though dayz doesn't typically lean towards focusing so much on gameplay i'd still say dayz is still the king of open world zombie games and i feel it is because it is unique. Focusing too much on gameplay i personally feel would remove that specialness of dayz.

at the moment my playstyle is carrying just above spawn gear (some kind of melee other than axe and preferably a friendly looking flannel top), once i attain these items i attempt to befriend other players, once i establish their trust, i lure them out into the open for my friend to murder (he hides in bushes / buildings with a mossin) and then we remove their pants and tickle their naughty bits just a lil bit while yelling friendly at them :)

there will never be a lockout mechanic of any kind that physically stops a player being able to play the game, as for a quality of life there are so many of these posts already. think of a new spawn like a newborn a new spawn has no experiences to lose, thus no incentive to stay alive; similar to a new born baby as it would crawl up to a lion and pull it's whiskas not even realising it is dangerous just like a newborn spawn runs up to an armed man and punching him in the face, what i'm saying is newspawns are retarded but once they've been alive a bit and had some funny / scary / close moments (thus experiences) that is the incentive to keep their particular character alive. I just think this is a non issue as honestly it effects nothing and has no bearing on the way the majority play the game, people will always play how they want to play, it's a sandbox and you can't control how someone wants to play even if you do not agree with their approach and once theres more content and more things to do this non issue won't even be memory as again it has no real relevance on the game itself.

Hi Brad I'm Luke, oh no sir the pleasure is all mine! As for a fix for players suicide for a better spawn i think it will sort itself out in time as players suicide for a better spawn obviously don't have much of an idea about the game if they are playing it for a loot kos grind as it really is not the heart of the game especially as more of the survivor features come into play, the people who suicide will die off as they become bored leaving the hardcore base that doesn't care about where they spawn.

I don't know if this is on the cards i've yet to see any information about it but i would love to see quality of carbs matter and by that i mean whole foods vs simple sugars a sugar is basically a temporary carbohydrate that burns quickly where as fibrous and protein rich foods are a slower longer lasting Carb source at the moment i can have some cans of soda and fill my hunger up fairly easily i'd love it for in the future if simple sugars such as the sodas only lasted 15-20 minutes. Basically what i'm saying is certain foods should be more filling for longer not just be a higher carb level but also effect the rate at the carbs are burnt! Quality of food is important and i think it should matter more, before you say ALPHA!!! i know this is an idea not a complaint haha!

haha ahhhh i think you are reading far too much into others opinions, how can you stereotype a person based off of a forum post that is pretty much anonymous? it's words words can be misinterpreted and exaggerated they do not reflect on the person unless they are stating a personal belief which none of the examples you gave are. It could also be speculated that you yourself need helps as you feel the need to judge others under the guise of wanting to help others who are not asking for it just because of their opposing (unliked) opinions.

are you saying like a hud display map i'm 90% sure they're trying to have no HUD whatsoever in the final product, if you could draw freely on paper you could draw you own map i'll support that but as for an updating explorer type map , i do not condone apologies! Edit: OH EM JEE you got my 200 post virginity it's always sweeter after the 200th time congrats

I am pro penis drawing onto maps or what have you we should always encourage penises as penises create life thus drawing a penis on a map is essentially creating life onto a map; that's deep. Just my honest unhelpful opinion, don't thank me :) But yes i would love to be able to mark locations on a map

No money means nothing to development!!!!! don't people understand game sales are the point of a company BIS want to (shockingly) make money, a game has a predetermined budget that they are contracted to (man i've said this so many times i dunno how logic completely evades some people) and the developers work within that budget, game sales DO NOT go back into the game you are not donating money into the game development, this is not kickstarter, you are not a shareholder, you simply bought a product and they turn your money into covering expenses (initial dev costs) and to make a profit. HOWEVER it selling well may mean that if BIS and the shareholders think they can milk the product for more money they may increase the games budget. Learn business please everyone for the love of my sanity, do it for me so i don't have to cry myself to sleep anymore over the lack of simple comprehension!

The problem i have with this thread (other than it's a daily occurrence) is there isn't a problem with banditry, it's fine and needs no fix / solution as it's not broken. It's harder to be a good guy than it is to be a bad guy and the game perfectly represents that; it makes the game interesting and terrifying, stop worrying about losing your gear and enjoy the game for its experiences not your loot hoarding! End.

No the game selling well doesn't entitle you, or me, or anyone, to anything. your logic is flawed they owe us nothing other than what they have already provided as we bought into the alpha agreeing to the warnings, i'm sick of people assuming that game sales reflect onto the game NO game sales (once initial costs are met) are profit this is what the investors paid for, to make money! the game already has a budget and the dev team work within that predetermined budget. Again to clarify game sales DO NOT go back into the game! However it selling well may mean they will increase the games budget if they feel they can milk the product for more money, people really need to learn how business work. This might seem blunt / harsh but people post this same thing every day under some weird delusion that the money goes back into the game and they completely disregard the costs of game development itself marketing / steams cut / free lancing / power bills / equipment / rent / programs / outsourcing / etc / etc, if the money went back into the game it would be a very unsuccessful business.

server hopping sucks but server hoppers aren't going to stay around as most aren't playing this game for the game they're playing it for the hype train and that train keeps on rollin'! i don't think anything needs to be done to prevent it; especially something as drastic as 24 hour player locks, it will sort itself out in time as the player base that is hopping get bored and move on plus when spawns are added the loot being cleared out instantly at server restarts won't even be noticeable anymore.

huh nope never seen that or the stab proof vest i wonder if that was snuck in last update craziness! Found the press vest 3 times myself though one of them even pristine!

really i liked heli never really used it myself but the fear of hearing one coming was always thrilling, hide in a bush and don't move and hope for the best lol
