Do you have .NET Framework 4.0 installed? If not, install it, otherwise reinstall it. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17851 Also I think this: http://www.dayzcommander.com/Faq might help you.

Well you can change the FOV slider to zoom in(guessing you don't play with default settings).

M14, definetly that one. Add the long range scope for it, and voila, DMR :) They should probably nerf it though. Also the M1911 handgun and the AK-s. I think they should also add Thompson Submachine gun and STG 44 not from the mod but it feels like they belong there.

Remember drama with shosho on Rust? Frankie is a part of that group.

Oh, most definetly, saying that there are a lot of hero's on DayZ is nonsense, as it is 80% KoS out there. Anyway, I hate frankie. @OP: You probably haven't encountered frankie "off camera".

+100 times this^^

Yes, relog timer is excellent in case of server hopping/switching, but when your game crashes and you join back into the same server, there is no need for that. Only thing what it does, is making people more frustrated.

Oh man... I really hoped this would be real, then it would atleast be a little bit like a survival game.

I'll belive it when I see it ingame.

So, umn... is the update gonna happen or not? Nvm, saw the dev post. Do you mean Bor?

After the latest maintenance my game has started to crash constantly and when it does, I cannot go back into the same server, otherwise it crashes again almost instantly. And it is not only me, my buddies, who I play with, have the same problem. We start crashing randomly and usually end up switching servers. I know this is pre-alpha(or pre-pre-pre-aplha, whatever you wanna call it), but this is too strange even for that. Well I was wondering if the latest maintenance had anything to do with it, or is it just the servers?(We all have different computer setups, so you can't blame it on that) Also I hope this is in the right section.

Oh I forgot to add this aswell. All those crashes have happened around or in Elektro. Most of them near the west Firestation.

Well, tehnically as the title says. I was wondering if switching from 3rd pov regular server to a hardcore(1st pov) one deletes my current character? I know they are on different hives and I found couple of comments people mentioning something about this, but nothing certain about this build. If there is a sticky about this, could someone link it to me?

Nice, thanks for your answers ;)

Yea the wipes are still happening. Had the same problem last night, as my game crashed and after logging back into server my character was deleted. And no, I was not killed and there were no zombies around me(I know because I had my mates around me).

They'll never come back in. There is a reason why they were removed from DayZ. Some other DayZ mods still have 50cals in, for example Overwatch.

Played it some more, it is just horrible. Every single zombie can hit you to the ground, and if you get up, you get knocked down again, which makes it really hard to search for stuff(inb4 this is a survival game and it is ment to be hard). Someone mentioned they reverted zombie hearing back to 1.7.5.1 which accordingly to a lot of people was broken as zombie can see/hear you 100m crouch walking. Infection rate is a bit too high, first hit by a zombie after spawning in got me infected. It is ridiculous. What if you could balance zombies out with loot? Earlier today I had struggle even finding a hatchet, well, I never found one. I searched the entire Solnichy factory area and barns behind it. Most of the loot spots were empty. Only things you can find are tin cans, which seems to have a spawnrate of 60%. (Note: This is my rant and opinion about 1.7.7, changelog seemed to be promising, but...^)

I think these are called infected camps.

Have you incresed the range of which zombies spawn in? Afaik it used to be 200, but yesterday when playing random zombies spawned 300m away. What do you mean under these tricks?

Nice place with a lot of active players. Eventhough their servers have whitelist on, most of them are almost full 24/7. Admins are very active, just go on to IRC if you encounter a cheater, which is unlikely to happen. I have encountered like only 1 cheater(who got taken care of within minutes) in my 6 months of playtime in there(compared to official ones in which you see them daily bases). Nothing much is changed from original DayZ Chernaus, except for some custom buildings which fit in perfectly, for example firestation in Kamenka. It is good to have a high building there where you can climb on to jump off :D

I noticed loot and zombie spawning is off. Could be caused by server, not sure yet though. I agree. We need a good hive wipe. Everyone starts off fresh.

Are there actually any servers running on 1.7.7?
