last night i was playing, and we picked up a guy who couldnt respond to anything, turns out he cant see direct chat text for some reason. anyone got any ideas why this is?

dayz+ uses that skin with the cowboy hat and jeans. and dayz epoch has some great civilian skins including some listed above, aswell as police officer and even the priest one lol and i think the female skins listed by the OP are actually good, definitly better than the males

i have ran into someone called gordon freeman on a few different servers, dont think he had a crowbar though

lol at the daryl dixon crying thing :D I think audio helps, im only using speakers at the minute, but when i have tried turtlebeach headphones i could better judge where gunshots were coming from etc, just didnt like being scared when someone decides to be annoying in side chat

sounds good, is it whitelist only at the minute? was thinking of stopping by and checking it out and does it require rmod?

looking for a good server to join to make a long term/permanent home on, with me and 1 or 2 people joining. Things I would like: new features such as auto-refuel, dogs, salvaging, more clothing/skins, high amount of vehicle spawns, decent loadout (pistol, few clips, bandages, maybe some tools) so far my experience with AI added to servers has been me getting auto-aimed and killed in seconds, so im not sure if i want that, but if its in the server and works better id really enjoy it. uk based server would be ideal but not essential things i dont like: having to join a website or teamspeak just to get the server password to play requiring rMod - as a new player i dont know much about it and any risk involved with installing it, so for the time-being im not gonna use it admins that use tools to their advantage, such as spawning things in Chernarus ideally but I am interested in checking out other maps. So please feel free to make suggestions about servers you play on or own and il check them out Thanks :)

hi, Ive just started playing dayz+ and have been doing a bit of base building, but i was wondering if anyone knew a good place that lists all that you can make as I cant find all the recipes anywhere online?

I have never seen my temp meter change from red, whether im in water, in rain at night or anything

i think control wise it would work ok. i use a controller on the pc version and have most of my controls mapped, and could easily have them all the important stuff with context-sensitive controls

First time reading this topic and even I understood what it meant lol I like the idea, people shouldnt be able to run back to their bodies, and it would make for great random loot finds, and encourage people to kill zombies rather than just run around them also it would add more horror if the infected player didnt reanimate right away, but at a random time, which could catch a different player offguard should it happen when they dont expect it

i have been looking at different servers to join, and some require rMod. I understand this is needed for new features in the modded servers, but i was wondering is there any downside? Such as being banned from battle eye/anti-hack servers, or the official servers?

ah yeah, i never put together the "start of the apocalypse" name with the theme, in which case i can accept the helis and stuff, its just the AI raping me abit much lol but still definatly a great server and one of the most advanced I have seen in terms of new features, self blood-bag is definatly a welcome addition

thanks for the feedback guys still dont have any info on balota bunnies I dont think i will check out bmrf, as i like being able to use 3rd person and il check out sanctum of chaos :)

its more of a personal preference than a problem. just starting out with a pistol i like to have maybe 3 clips, but since a revolver is slower and carries less bullets per clip, i feel it would be better off having an extra clip or 2, especially since most people wouldnt know their way around lingor cause it could be there first time. an extra bandage would be nice too :)

and what makes it good? lol

been playing this server abit recently and i really enjoy it. the dogs are great and make very handy companions when looting. alot more vehicles is always a plus to me as i hate the walking part of dayz my only issue is with the AI, i like that there is AI, but between survivor groups going through towns shooting every zombie in sight, making survival easy when they are around. bandits being so tough its usually be killed rather than kill, and helis flying over every couple of minutes, it does kinda drain the atmosphere abit. What i would suggest (bearing in mind i dont know anything about modding or how dayz works) would be to lower the amount of survivors in groups, say to maybe 3 or 4. make bandits and AI a little less intellligent or tough, so they dont kill so easy. and decrease the amount of flying heli spawns. Apart from that id definatly recommend more people checking it out, its very fun and fills alot gaps in vanilla dayz. plus it would be good to have more people in instead of rocks creeping out me and my cousin at night lol

played on this twice, its pretty good, plenty of vehicles around that work. my only (personal) problem is spawning with revolver, 2 clips and a bandage. but otherwise i enjoy it, definatly will go back next time i want to try lingor

whenever im on dayz, my brother cant play ghost recon on playstation 3 at the same time. and if he is on dayz, my skype will cut out video calls all the time only have standard broadband with unlimited download/upload usage, but its a cheap enough UK package, will definatly need an upgrade if we are to ever play dayz at the same time

so i have been playing dayz for about a week or 2 now, jumping from server to server trying to settle in, but not finding anything ideal so was wondering: could anybody recommend a really good server, or at least 1 that fits my preferences (that being no sniper spawns, but still getting to spawn with a pistol and maybe some tools. has a decent amount of vehicles that dont require alot of time to get working and pvp welcome but not required) also would like to try something with new features, been hearing alot about AI and more vehicles/buildings/guns etc aswell as other new features i know nothing about Also, anybody got a recommended controller configuration? I have mine set up pretty well but i still have to use keyboard and mouse for some things like arranging my inventory and so on Thanks in advance, and im sorry if this is in the wrong place?

thanks for the responses, i will definatly check them servers out was looking on here for some new private hives to join so im making a list and yeah i have always used dayz commander, and so far have tried a few maps like lingor island, but for now gonna stick to chernarus while i find my way around. just got lost in the north of the map lol so how do you play normally? just go into the dayz game then multiplayer? and then you can jump from server to server? and do all the official servers have basic start equipment? (no gun, no tools, just a torch and bandage) Lastly, ive noticed there is dayz, dayz+, dayz origins, and probably more, are they just different maps? or are they different in some other way?
