It's still down. Some kid is having fun.

I couldn't capture videos or screenshots of the incident, and of course I don't know the hackers nick name, but here's some info: TIME: 0:32 UTC +3 SERVER: DayZ DE #34 (1.7\639666) hosted by MultiplayGameservers I was playing with a nickname "snaikku". I joined the server, I spawned near the NW airfield, I heard explosions coming from somewhere near the northern barracks (just seconds after I joined), I was about 800 meters away (outside the airfield, on the west side) hiding in a bush. It was quiet for a little while, Then suddenly, I exploded and I was killed, at 0:32 (half past mid-night) UTC +3. I hope you investigate this, as people in the chat also warned about a hacker who was at the NW airfield. I lost a DMR and a M14_AIM just because of that asshole >:( While I can't give any concrete evidence, you should see the event in the server's log.

I have the best possible gear, NVG, RangeFinder, DMR, Coyote pack, etc... I wonder what there is to do anymore. I don't want a chopper or a car because they make too much noise. Building a base alone is stupid. Exploring is pointless as the game world is quite small after all, and I already have all the gear I need. Killing other players is pointless. No reward. Co-operating with someone is too dangerous, I can survive alone and isn't that the point of this mod? This mod doesn't have an end-game. :huh:

^ I agree There should also be a game mechanic that makes it hard to stay at the top. But I have no idea what it could be. Maybe a fatigue system could also help. The more stuff you carry, the slower you move and easier the zombies can get you.

I don't use vehicles because they don't give any reward. It's just taking risks for no reason. Isn't the main goal to survive? The only point I can think of is killing other players that have good gear, just to lower the competition between the elite players, and keep a differential advantage and maintaining my top position. I think surviving should be a lot harder in the northern part of the game world - At least 3x the zombie count. Zombies should spawn in the forest as well (north). Also, right now zombies can't hit you as long as you keep running. How about making the zombies to be able to hit you as they run, so that they don't stop to bite you?

But there is no point developing the mod if the whole concept is doomed to fail because the "end-game" can't be implemented into the concept. Comparing this to minecraft, that game actually has the potential to support this kind of mod concept because it has an unlimited/generating game world.

I'm just gonna leave this here, Just an idea:

I can confirm this as well. I wasted an hour trying to find a suitable place. No luck.

How about lions and tigers

"Day Zeta" with a Finnish accent.

Is this true? If so, wow, just wow...

Brilliant idea!

I just came up with the same idea. I wonder if the creators of this mod have seen this suggestion. It would work as a great alternative to NVG. Remove the NVG and add this tool.

Game purchase only.

Anyone else think that there are way too few zombies in towns? Right now the gameplay seems to rely entirely on PVP combat, as zombies don't cause any real threat. 1 bandit is more dangerous than 20 zombies. Taken from the "About" page: I've seen a maximum of 460 zombies in the debug monitor. Why doesn't it spawn more Zeds if it's possible?

Your character dies if you don't play for a few days. What's the logic behind this? Why do you force people to constantly play this mod? This has to be the worst feature ever invented into a game. *EDIT* Forgot to mention: I'm talking about Hunger and Thirst. Your character constantly consumes food and water EVEN IF YOU ARE LOGGED OUT. What the fuck is that shit?!

The Opposition made a better argument on the first page. Some of us just aren't unemployed. We don't have the time to play every single day. If I had the time to play this game 8 hours a day, I would be fine with this feature.

LOL, nearly everyone in that thread wants the feature to be removed. I agree with them. It's just horrible game designing.

Why do you force people to play the game constantly every day?
