Pending Update: Build 1.7.3 (community edition)
Azrail (DayZ) replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
i think it rather adds to immersion. think of logging out of the game like putting your character to sleep. now you don't go to sleep when there are people around shooting. obviously there might be exceptional circumstances, but lets take one step at a time. the other question is, how long does combat log last? if its 5 minutes after last bullet shot/impact i guess thats about fine. so i don't need to stay about for like an hour just because some jerk likes to troll me. i can forsee a solution with a grouping system, like if you shoot nearby a player in your group/clan, that guy won't be combat logged. -
Pending Update: Build 1.7.3 (community edition)
Azrail (DayZ) replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
the dogs were on gamescom, which was like a million years ago, and imo the gameplay worked well enough to suffice a release on the public hive. which is still an alpha test for a reason, why not just let us do the work, while they do the coding? rocket has enough to do with his standalone anyways. then again, thats just my daily morning brainfart - i am more then happy with everything rocket & crew throw at us, and if it takes another year until we see dogs, i will wait right here. but sometimes like in this example i don't agree with their train of development, and put that into words. nothing wrong with that. that brain was definetly smarter then yours, for a start yea i always wonder, people say "rocket, alt+f4 sucks, pls disable that" rocket does that, and now people say "rocket, i can't ragequit from hackers, enable alt+f4" yea if you don't like it go play some private crap, i just played on one few days ago and it was the most cheat infested game i ever witnessed, but each to their own i guess? i loved when rocket kept the radio silence. now we get some serious updates, initial post already flooding with braindead zombies. rocket rocking out loud with his lee enfield in cherno. like a bous! -

Should we remove barbed wire in the next update
Azrail (DayZ) replied to mattlightfoot's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
if its possible that by removing a fence with a kit, it would also save its state, keep them otherwise - remove until a solution to that problem is found -
this post is in a hell of a wrong section. if i encounter a bug like this, i would usually post a bug report & request unstuck/reset. i smell some cheese.

actually, they can not. vehicle positions are saved on the main hive, which is not gonna be prunned for problems just on one host. however, i do support the idea of regular wipes to reduce inflation from duping. right now its like every other noob we stumble across has a TWS. once every 2 weeks or at least every month would be cool with me.

i personally think, silence is a blessing in this specific case. see how the counter for active players within the last 24h went down to below 100k? but at the same time, see how many less haters we see on threads like this throwing out their meaningless comments? i have noticed this trend grow over a couple of threads within the last weeks. when rocket was still actively posting, a thread with patchnotes like 1.7.2.6 would have been overrun by kids calling rocket an [insert stupid insult], why did this take so long? shouting why didnt you also fix this and that, why do you allow to remove the debug monitor? there is THIS BUG you need to fix RIGHT NOW!!12 instead, we saw people happily appreciate the work done, i only read the first page tbh xD but this is a refreshing experience for me... sure, there still are always idiots whom just refuse to get the message. maybe thats a good thing, what else would be left to do for me if im bored, if not pester raging haters with sexy sacrasm. but i think this period of silence rid most of the dumbsters and we have a more mature community at hand now. i like! ready to move forward then D: i myself had a brief break from dayz, not because of any bugs/hacks/lack of updates, but because i just need something different and not let dayz grow boring on me. so if you ever think there is nothing left to do in dayz (which is actually hard to achieve, unless you are a hardcore addict like i am xD) and additional content just isn't on the horizont yet, its urgent time to step out and do something else. in the unlikely case you don't play ANY other games except dayz, you can always try arma2 - there are some really kickass multiplayer maps you can play with your friends, and at the same time practise your gameplay so you won't get rusty when you hop back into action xD

Hotfix Build 1.7.2.5 Rolling Update
Azrail (DayZ) replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
Griff for Community Manager!!!!! Then again, CM's have like the most thankless task in the world. Are you sure you want to do that D: Keep in mind, as a CM, its you vs. them. And you spawn without pistol and hatchet D: -
Steal chopper, server gets reboot
Azrail (DayZ) replied to Allie (DayZ)'s topic in New Player Discussion
welcome to dayz ;) report server with evidence and hopefully it will get blacklisted. on another note, what you can try as an answer... when you crash a chopper, it will respawn at the crash site after a restart. so if you happen to loose a chopper to cheating admins, you can try again and just crash it into the sea. use a fresh spawn as pilot so you don't lose any gear. we actually found one between the island and the cap, apparently someone tried to fly the chopper without fixing it and it instantly crashed into the sea. one guy dived down (you need a broken leg to sink to the ground) and the chopper instantly blew up when he started it. next day it respawned at the same position. here is a video i made of that session: language is german, and for some unknown reason, the uploaded video became very dark. ignore my stupid laugh at the end, pretty much lost it at that point :P it will eventually reset to the initial spawn point, but you can still harass them for like a week :) would be worth it for me. good luck. -
talk about immersion D:
-
wait and see what happens when 1.7.3 hits
-
the standalone will just be different the mod will be made open for modders, so they can add their own stuff people can run their own servers with their own rules and stuff they will keep working on the mod, but not all features can be realised in the mod, thats why they go for the standalone version to begin with.

and noone really gives a damn. how sad. (except me, but then again i'm hijacking this thread for my evening entertainment) i can see two possible reasons why you seem to be so eager to get your point across. 1) you are an attention whore or 2) you are working for some 'competitive' game which is said to also be currently in development. tough call but i will put my bet on 2), and i am almost never wrong with my bets. if you say neither 1) or 2) is true, you lie. stop with them lies already.

your money, your problem. you should inform yourself before you buy something.

No, its just average trolling.. welcome to networking with kids.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I guess we all will sleep better tonight. He did in the past. And who are you to come here and call him a liar?

no.

no steam version = no luck other than complete reinstall. steam version = right click -> backup

maybe its just easier to post things from mobile devices on reddit, it for sure is on twitter, which is actually used even by big companies to announce news around their products. also both are platforms which will reach people who never heard about dayz, nice promotion for free. i don't care for reddit, i will wait for rocket to get back here to unleash dogs. that will happen when he wants it to happen, and i am totally fine with that.

you miss the point where they just came back from germany after 4 days filled with lot of action, maybe they just need some REST. updates will appear as soon as they are ready to push them out, and as soon you are meant to see them.
