This is true, but despite the bug I still manage to find trucks everywhere. Perhaps iv just been lucky.

haha this is true, although I doubt most people could maintain the maximum speed Usain Bolt was able to achieve, let along sustain it indefinitely with kg/s worth of gear on them. :P

To be honest, I loved the 24 hr cycle in the mod, but I can understand that some people can only play for a limited amount of time. Would the time acceleration be able to set up a 4hr day/4 hr night? That seemed to work with dayz origins quite well. However, to stop people just server hopping when It became night, all servers would have to be linked to the same clock. I feel like the people that dont ever want to play at night under any circumstances, are the same types of players that hated the new .55 loot system. This game is supposed to be difficult. In the mod 24/7 day servers were for people who wanted to death match on the coast. I understand that your upset that your servers doesn't allow you to make the changes that you see fit. But changes like this are likely to be changed by the devs in the future anyway. Hopefully they come up with a way to add a night cycle that doesn't restrict payers to playing in a specific timezone all the time.

Looking for fishing nets. Pm me for a trade and Ill see what i can do, iv got decent end game gear.

Yea Basically wanted to know if the new loot system changes the spawn of the fish netting, as Iv been playing a lot of .55 lately and I'm yet to find a single netting. I'm yet to try looking in the boats and wanted to confirm that's where they still exclusively spawn before I risk the coast. Thank you.

Thxs :) know now to get off the coast looking in boats and to head inland. Although I did get a great gun fight whilst I was looking. Yea it seems almost certain that the best place for netting can be anywhere really.

Good points from both sides. Personaly I think adding transport aerial vehicles will only add more challange and content to the game. However whats wrong with a simple by plane like the AN-2? It needs a runway to take off and land, or a long strip of grass/land, which means not just anyone can switch on auto hover and land. No weapons? All in all its a very limited vehicle, and yet it would be great fun to have one in the game would it not?

It would appear that the netting has the potential to spawn anywhere

well Im cruising up and down the coast in my truck, ill post here If I find netting.

If anyone finds netting post .55 let me know? Cheers

Been running along the coast checking boats. Found loot but no netting so far.

Hey guys basically the title explains it all. Iv got a 1911 with a suppressor to deal with the new world war Z zombies that you cant really melee without your clothes getting ruined. Which is fine, however im having a lot of difficulty finding 45 acp rounds. I dont think iv found a single box since the patch. So Just though id post on here and see if anyone could confirm this. Or perhaps i have terrible RNG? thxs PS: I already know that loot is more difficult to find, thats not the issue. Although loot is rarer I still find weapons/ammo for the vast majority of guns. Just not ACP.

According to an update made by dayz TV, some items have not been spawning, and the error will be corrected in the new hot fix. (Unable to post links) Perhaps the lack of 45 ACP boxes/lose rounds may be explained by this? As well as the other missing items previously mentioned in this thread.

Personally I haven't found any of those items either. But then again, I havent been searching for them either (except for the 1911 boxes) tbh I very much like the new loot system. Even if it is a pain to find some items.

In my search for ACP Iv hoarded 6 30 rnd mags and 2 drum mags haha.

nah in .54 i threw away 45 acp bullets because i had too many. Since the patch iv gone through 70 bullets easily. Also since i made this topic iv found 3 acp clips. Still no boxes or lose bullets though.

It would be interesting to know whether or not it was intentional, or simply a by-product of the new loot system.

Iv found more 7 round magezines that iv found individual bullets haha

Hey guys, I notice that servers seem to restart alot. Most servers seem to have a 4 hour cycle, but does anyone find that a server is rarely up for more than an hour? Perhaps iv just been unlucky? Cheers :)

Had a good run, decided to get over my dummy spit about the last wipe, survived for 5 days got in a couple of great gun fights. But I joined a server called "The Animal Kingdom" (an Australian hosted server) and despite exiting the game immediately upon spawning on the coast, I remained on the coast upon restarting the game and joining another server. Seems like its just luck. Sometimes leaving the server straight away can save you, but not all the time. (I thoroughly look forward to the rare occasion that I'm killed by a zed or player haha :P) EDIT: Upon further examination it would appear that I joined the server directly after a restart which would seem to support the danger of joining servers that have just restarted.

Hey all just a simple inquiry, was playing SA with some friends earlier today and we decided to try our luck on a maxed out high pop server. To say it was laggy would be an understatement. It was un-playable. Every 15-20 seconds we would lose connection to our server (simultaneously) for about 10-15 seconds. Then the server would pick the connection back up and all of us would lag teleport all over the place (simultaneously). We connected to 3 other high high pop Aussie servers to see if all would be this laggy. They were. So just though id ask, are any other Aussie's out there experiencing similar issues? Are all high pop servers this laggy? Even those that are situated in countries whose governments have had the intelligence to implement a fibre optic network? haha Perhaps the dayz hub just happened to be having network issues when we tried to play? Anyway, some thoughts from the rest of you would be nice.

Still having this issue, could perhaps be that everyone I play with has crap internet.

Thank you for picking up that error of mine, if you hadn't of been here to notice and point it out, the consequences may have been catastrophic. *Core mechanics and content* is what I should have said. Dodged a bullet there. But fair enough on the weapons, I was comparing the weapons in SA to the plentiful supply in the mod, however in retrospect I suppose that would be a little unfair.

As much as I enjoy the game, Its still disappointing me that we have mechanics such as hypothermia, many many different types of clothing, new towns, a new health system, item durability (I could go on forever with these tiny details) etc, and yet no vehicles and a limited amount of weapons. I have no experience in game design so I am not criticizing anything here. Its just a shame that so much good work and effort was put into what I would call game polish. I would have wanted core mechanics first. Vehicles, weapons, zombies. Then add all this good stuff that the devs have come up with. (because it is good stuff, just added at the wrong time in my view) Still one of my favorite games though, and Im happy to wait for these things to come eventually.

This has happened to me 3 times over the past 4 days. Iv started taking notes of the servers I joined prior to the occurrence. As much as I love dayz, my characters barely lasts long enough to die the proper way. Be very careful about which server you join, its more dangerous than any group of bandits haha
