Maybe you haven't been here long enough to notice that what Rocket 'says' and what Rocket 'does' are often very different things. You'll get used to it after awhile....

I just got back from NWA, no glitches at all (1.7.5). What beta are you guys running? EDIT: Sorry, meant 1.7.2.5

This was fixed in the patch released today. This was fixed in the patch released today. This was fixed in the patch released today. This was fixed in the patch released today.

I would suggest looking in the last place where you know for sure that you had it....it should be in that general area.

Details. Generally they include things like what patch you are running, what your previous patch was. What beta version you are running. You know, details.

Lately I've been bored as well. A buddy and I found someone on the forum who needed a transfusion and figured what the hell, lets make a run down to Balota and fix him up, maybe give him some gear. In itself it was no big deal but the events that happened after that in Cherno were a blast (we ultimately ended up dead) but the point was that the medic run took us out of our normal routine up north and we had a great time afterwards in a place we would never have been otherwise. If you are bored and you think you might have it in you to not shoot a wounded player in the face the moment you see him, maybe help someone out. God knows, there are only so many new things to try at this point in the game, might as well try them all. On the surface, playing a medic role sounds pretty dull, but it's that fact that you may find yourself far from your usual shit that could add some spice to your game.

You have to be an admin on the server to see this log.

Because the DayZ mod has likely sold more copies of Arma 2 than all of Bohemia's other games COMBINED. DayZ has launched Bohemia from a niche developer, to a player on the big stage in only 4 months time and now with a standalone in the works they stand to easily double if not triple what they have already made from DayZ so far. A lot of DayZ players will also be buying Arma 3 on release who would have never even given it a second glance previously. Once the standalone has released I'd estimate that they will have generated 30 to 80 million dollars revenue thanks to DayZ. That is a lot of cheese. DayZ has become a cash cow of epic proportions for Bohemia, for them to give the DayZ standalone anything other than what is best for it would be to shoot themselves in the foot. Add to that what others have already mentioned about being able to test the Arma 3 engine on a large scale and they have very little reason not to open the source code to the DayZ project. It simply makes sense.

An even better bet than the Six program is DayZ Commander. Its a really nice launcher / updater and completely blows away the arma 2 server browser. http://www.dayzcommander.com

His name was Bob. Nobody at Bohemia really liked him much and he was fired recently. Are you happy now?

Usually when a tent is that deep in a tree you will eventually find a "sweet spot" were you can access it. Keep looking a bit before giving up....

Yup. Bohemia have spent the last year and a half building a new game that only governments will be able to play. Sorry.....this game is not for the people.

It's usually server related. Join another server for awhile and then check back to your usual awhile later.

It's nothing to be ashamed about if you can't handle the pressure of testing this mod. Clearly a lot of people can't deal with the strain. There are a lot of less stressful games out there, maybe you could find another that does not make you so upset?

Bohemia (and I assume Rocket as well) are going to be attending GameCon next week. Instead of asking random people to speculate on the price, why don't you just wait a few days more and see what they announce? I would bet my next paycheck that they will have a whole shitload to say about this.....

If you are unwilling to part with a few bucks more, you can simply continue playing the DayZ mod, same as you have been so far, the mod will be supported for some amount of time into the future. If you are willing to pony up a few more (probably around $15) you will gain acess to the standalone alpha/beta. Just because the game is going standalone does not mean a finished version will suddenly appear for sale. Just like with Minecraft, you will be given the opportunity to participate in the development of the standalone for a small price. Some day down the road, if you bought in early you will already own what gets released. If you waited, you will have to pay a higher price for the final release. This is what Rocket is referring to when he talks about the Minecraft pricing model.

Rocket has already said that EXISTING new arma maps could be converted in about an hour. What many people may not realize though is that it took a team of Bohemia devs an entire year to create the Chernarus map. Dont hold your breath for brand new custom DayZ maps, if ever, they are a long ways away. Take a look at some of the already existing maps though, these can easily be added to the game.

Just some food for thought.....it took a team of bohemia devs an entire year to make Chernarus. I'm sure we'll get to see more maps in DayZ (rocket has said he wants this), but new maps are not going to happen anytime very soon.

A lot of people seem to confuse standalone with a finished game. DayZ is extremely likely to be released this fall as a standalone alpha or beta version (not a finished product). This is why the pricing will be low, similar to Minecraft's pricing model, people who paid up front to play the beta recieved a discounted price, and their money went toward further development of the game. SO many people here on the forums seem to think they will be buying a finished product in September. Very unlikely. You are going to pay to play the standalone alpha/beta or you can continue to play the mod for free (yes they are going to support the mod for the time being). Bohemia is going to be attending GamesCon next week, I'd be very surprised if they don't have a helluva lot to say about the new project at that time.

Bohemia is going to be at GamesCon next week. You can bet your ass they (and probably Rocket as well) will have PLENTY to say about the new project then...I doubt there will be much new info before then.

Bohemia is going to be at GamesCom next week. You can bet your ass they will have PLENTY to say about the new project then...

KK. See you in a few months...

I think the resulting bbQQ would be epic!

If we can eat other peoples dogz, I think the resulting bbQQ will be epic!

Tents often don't respawn properly after a server restart. Just check again after the next restart, the tents will usually be back.
