    How do you Pronounce the name?

    Day Zed, because, after all, they're Zeds.

    Arma2's big rise to the top.

    Something tells me Gabe's probably got plenty of empty cans of beans.

    Official disconnect thread

    Blaaaaaaang: (Sorry if I've gotten the wrong amount of a's there :p) If when you DC'd you became AFK for a few moments (say, 20 seconds), then you wouldn't be in any danger. Someone who had DC'd in the middle of a firefight would have been.
  4. I don't see a problem with judging people who exploit.

    Trains

    Not at all, Shimmler.

    Great Mod; Just one Problem.

    If you have a suggestion, please use the Suggestions forum. If you have an opinion that does not warrant a new thread, please use your blog. Threaaaaad closed.

    Will DayZ cost money after Alpha?

    ~Read the fucking existing threads~ Rocket has said it's most likely that if it becomes a full-fledged game it will be a one time purchase.

    Player "Login" is a skilogger

    Yet again, I find myself agreeing with Mr 'Bandit Scum' Delicious. I loathe alt-f4'ers as much as the next man, but getting angry about them on the forums, or even in-game, does nothing to help.

    Game is growing too fast?

    You are an alpha tester. You are not here to have fun.

    Official disconnect thread

    It is most certainly against the rules.

    Some servers still running 1.5.6

    DaPessimist, again, I don't think you understand your duties as an alpha tester if you think it's okay to play a previous version because it's not 'broken.'

    The PvP Discussion Thread

    I don't think it was that hurtful. :p

    Some servers still running 1.5.6

    Trolls trolling trolls. Bayers, I already warned you once, and so I'm warning you again. Next time, you'll be banned. Drewmaw, you get a warning too.
  14. Please, for the love of God, stop using the word Carebear. I'm not going to ban someone for doing it, but fuck, it doesn't make anyone reading your post go, 'Ha, boy, he sure showed him! Nice one!'. It just makes them go 'For fucks sake, not again.' If you HAVE to use it, just do what Rocket did in some recent patch notes. Call them a pussy. :p

    Why kill yourself?

    I suspect he was killed by a bandit, perhaps one who had no intention of ever looting the corpse.
  16. I was expecting this thread to be about muting players whining about the Zed count. :p I believe this was intended as a test for a more dynamic audio system. It's not perfect right now, for sure - but it's a start down a long road.
  17. I'd like to point out that punishment is not the only reason people avoid crime, in real life or in DayZ. I help other Survivors because I feel that it's helping them enjoy the game, as well as giving Bandits a more challenging quarry. Whatever the eventual state of the bandit system, there will always be nice guys. Of that I can promise you.

    How populated is this Mod?

    As an Australian, it's a sign of an incredible online mod to see about 50 people playing under 150 ping. This mod usually has about 200. 'Nuff said.

    More Zs = <3

    While I totally agree with you (Seriously, I am loving 5.7), there is already another thread present on the same subject. Please use the existing one.

    The New Zombie Count is AWESOME

    This patch has finally made me feel like being in a true Romero situation. (Despite the differing speed of Zeds. ;)) I suspect teamwork is already on the rise.

    roll back to 1.5.6

    Locked. This is an alpha, and testing needs to be done. Rolling back is simply inexcuseable. (There is also a thread already present on the topic of servers running 1.5.6.) If a Dev disagrees, feel free to unlock it. But I strongly suspect that any server refusing to update will get a stern talking to by Rocket and Co.
  22. oilman

    Some servers still running 1.5.6

    An alpha is made for testing. Those refusing to test further because they like it how it was a few days ago are exactly the kind of people who you don't want to test a videogame. Leaving this in General and not moving to Server General because I suspect we may see a debate arise. ;)

    1.5.7 update

    The only problem with Zoombinis is their ability to climb ladders. Remove that, and suddenly there are several 'safe zones' in cities, but ones which will only last as long as your rations do.
  24. Green Mountain is a second Brain Scorcher, set up by the C-Con- oh wait wrong game
  25. The real issue is that as many players (including me) have worked out, a horde of zombies is no match for a steep hill.
