Too true, gotta love alpha. Its like rolling dice every time you log in, walk up some stairs, climb a ladder. Cannot wait for 2 years from now when we can joke about it.

I mean lets be honest, there is only so much you and your buddies can do at this point before it comes to, "lets go camp here and kill people"

Admins cannot "erase databases" and the only thing an instant reset would do would be prevent you or anyone including himself from looting the corpse.

Suggestion - disable VOIP during gameplay
JPWiser replied to conan the librarian's topic in Suggestions
Welcome to online gaming. Ill sell you a ventrilo server and maybe when you meet some friends you should try it. -
Heres an even better one. Sitting at the military base north of kamenka scoping it out with some buddies and all of a sudden BAM. Our one friend goes down to a mosin snipe. I immedietely go prone beside a rock, frantically trying to look around and see the shooter. M4 shots come blasting in at the rocks now, theres obviously more than one of them. We spot the mosin shooter at the end of the stone fence so I get ready to make a break for it to get close enough. Go to sprint down the hill towards him and UGH..... Slow walk time... free kill lol.... Down hill is even worse.

lol turning your gamma up doesnt even do that much ....

Curious about peoples 'Rules of Engagement'
JPWiser replied to UNDERWORLD's topic in General Discussion
If you have only melee weapons ... we steal your blood.... blood type 0 ftw -
One of the most precious innocent things ive ever read ;P

These are the rules I abide by. There also were no "rules" or "agreements" I had to sign with Fragnet to get my server. Posted 26 December 2013 - 02:21 PM Here is a list of DayZ Standalone hosting rules as per the Devs: You may NOT change your servers slotsYou may NOT password your serverYour server must contain the version number and whether it is 3PP:ON or OFF i.e. "DayZ UK 5-xx (Public/3PP:OFF) 113925 - Hosted by GamingDeluxe.co.uk"Your server must NOT have a NO KILL policyHicks has further clarified the following on twitter: Server operators MAY frequently restart their rented instances in order to keep the time at a certain point. <=========Failure to comply with these rules could result in a suspension of your server without a refund. Servers are caught and shut down as rapidly as can be expected. GSPs deal with them and most if not all have some sort of warning about the above. If you want to expedite the process, write the IPs down and report them to the GSPs directly. If you don't know who hosts it, report it to them all (Multiplay, Gameservers, Vilayer, Fragnet, GamingDeluxe), or find the GSP this way. Edited by SmashT, Yesterday, 12:43 PM. I'n in your base, editing your doodles. Not only is there nothing about kicking anyone in this list but there is also a rule stating a server operator MAY restart their rented instances to keep the time at a certain point. Id say the game is better off with me as a host and without your misleading information.
-
Id also like to add, is there a rule somewhere that a server admin is not allowed to kick someone, or reset his server? I must have missed the fine print.
-
Would never rent a server if I was told I am not allowed to restart it as I saw fit. Or kick someone I thought should be kicked etc. If you want to rent a server and be the only person to ever play on it that should definitely be an option for you if you chose to do so. Without being able to password your server your only left with a couple options. If you get kicked from a server cause that specific admin would like to have a lone wolf server just for himself, its his dam money and he should be allowed to without question, I mean there is only what? Hundreds of other servers to chose from. Why would you even want to play on a server where the admin doesnt want others to play on it? /boggle
-
I think a "Last played" tab with the time and date of your last log on to that server would make the most sense.

Solving Both End-Game/Meta-Game and KoS Problems At Once
JPWiser replied to Pendulum Effect's topic in General Discussion
Jesus give the game some time. Alot of your suggestions are being looked at however theres alot more to worry about at the moment then what your talking about. AI and NPC should never be in this game ever. But this kind of discussion in my opinion is for a LONG time down the road. \ Of course there is nothing to do but kos... the games been out in pre alpha for like 3 weeks. Theres currently 2 rifles and 2 pistols in the game, lol. Once all the items, vehicles, and stash sites are implemented, and zombies are added in fully and tweaked to work properly, while all the FPS is maintained after adding all that, then maybe its worth even exploring a "zombie island". How about we get the existing game up to its potential first. -

DayZ SA - Stuck inside a building and cant get out
JPWiser replied to Tyler_Sharp's topic in Troubleshooting
Continuous running and jumping via the V key seems to get me out when it happens to me. Has happened to me in about 4-5 different places, have got out every time. This is a known issue in the bug tracker. -
Yup just start over. Have lost about 4 characters so far to the wipe.

Hacker just Teleported me to middle of water.
JPWiser replied to DagNabit's topic in General Discussion
Why just cause it happened to your friend does that mean its not a bug? Did he know a hacker did this to him? -
Killed by a Bug, No more playing for me.

Should I invest my time in 1st Person Servers?
JPWiser replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
Thats why I mentioned it requires both options for proper fields of view. One offers what the other cant. Just fix the camera from scrolling when your against a wall and no one can wallhack... -
Should I invest my time in 1st Person Servers?
JPWiser replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
Still doesnt change the fact that you need both views for you to be able to see all potential angles you would be able to, as effortlessly as you would in RL. Aka you need both. But thanks for the lesson on dimensions Bill Nye.... -
Should I invest my time in 1st Person Servers?
JPWiser replied to crazyandlazy's topic in General Discussion
I dont understand how a 2d fpv is considered to be "more realistic" My field of view and perhifial vision is so much greater than what fpv offers. Unless I have a head tracker I have to take my hand off of the mouse and use my keypad to look around. They both have their benefits but both have their weaknesses. And were both implemented in the game to balance eachother out. When im runnin through a field third person offers a much more realistic view of what you would see and feel actually running through a field. Where as in close quarters, first person makes a lot more sense. Yes third person has the problem of being able to see around corners that needs to be addressed. But you guys making it seem that one view or the other being available as an option, is a game breaking feature, are ridiculous. For full immersion in a TWO DIMENSIONAL world.... You need both views. -
