i still don't get it... what is the reasoning behind this decission?
-
Thats actually the reason NOT to keep it in. Play game xyz if the challenge in is too much for you.

No support for new custom maps, unless there already exist at least a shit ton of servers running them No servers with new custom maps, unless there is support for them via dayzcommander. I fear new and yet unpopular maps will die a slow and horrible death in dayz due to that. i made a suggestion on their forums and had a feeling it wasn't welcome, it was turned down rather snooty. well, if they don't need me, i sure as hell don't need them. i am trying playwithsix. used sixlauncher before and found it too complicated and not very userfriendly. playwithsix is simple, easy to use and it supports all the known maps for dayz, plus alot of other arma2 mods. only issue i still have, playwithsix finds way less servers then dayzcommander or ingame. not sure, maybe i messed up my filters? oops i just noticed... sorry for OT :blush:

have you checked the server list recently? i have not seen any 3rdp=off for a while now. maybe server hosters are scared that they loose their carebears standalone better be different.

DayZ goldsellers and ingame spam reports, handling and solutions?
Azrail (DayZ) replied to Serious Stan's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
it takes two brains for a trade. the brains of "item sellers" work quite differently. being a mmo player for a while i had to deal with RMT alot. not as a buyer, of course xD -

DayZ goldsellers and ingame spam reports, handling and solutions?
Azrail (DayZ) replied to Serious Stan's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
why in the hell would i buy something in dayz for real money, and why would i care if anyone else does? trading is happening in dayz without RMT, i personally couldn't care less if someone is getting money for the trade, its not like other mmo's where RMT is a severe pain in the rear. bohemia will likely have a different view on that, but i fail to see how it would affect me as a player. its not like you die, buy new gear on some website, and be full equipped again within 5 minutes. neither would it be realistic to think people would pay real money for items, when loosing them is so easy in a game with perma death. that concept would die really quickly. -
If you were an in game item what would you be?

SweetFX Shader Suite Bannable?
Azrail (DayZ) replied to girdisorder's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
dayz nav is a hack, sweetfx is a graphic enhencer. that comparsion does not show any glimpse of a sense. -
what a bullshit excuse. what does 3rd person view do? all it does is move the POV from the actual eyes of your character to some point above/behind your head. that is LESS realistic then using 1st person view, and it also allows to see things you shouldn't be able to see. if you can not agree on this, you are simply ignorant. also, if you don't like your FOV you can manually adjust it, guides for that are easily found via google. i am now running a resolution of 5760x1080 (triple monitor setup) and obviously this allows for a nice spread of view. i would think it comes close to the real human FOV, as when sitting infront of them i can barely peek from one end to the other. so if you are out for REALISTIC FOV, better get hands on a triple monitor setup, but don't pretend to use 3rd person for "realism", thats pathetic.

building a base right now is not gonna work due to lack of proper base building material. you get fence, sandbags and tank traps. none of these allow for proper block of movement/line of sight. plus you still need active people for defense, since everyone with a toolbox/entrenching tool can still sneak in to your fort in no time, no matter how many fences and sandbags you set up. its not a good idea anyways because i take it, you won't be able to defend it 24hr a day. just wander about the map and pick a random place in the woods to place tents. make sure to either pick a distinctive spot or note down the gps grid. don't use any tent spots given by advice, chances are theay are already popular and can be farmed by server hoppers. don't build tent cities. one tent at a spot if you want to keep them as hidden as possible. also, you want to make sure to capture all helicopters on the server, because with a helicopter your tents are easily spotted from above, no matter where you place them. good luck.

you got killed by a cheater.

What was your very first ever DayZ death?
Azrail (DayZ) replied to Shadow Man's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
after 2 hours of crawling and sneaking through the beatiful night of cherno, terrified from hearing zeds all around me and shadows walking by, suddenly i see my first ever dayz sunlight, and then i run into a bunch of zeds tearing me apart. -

i demand a statement >:( too many snipers and campers complaining? is there any private hive planning to keep it?
-
if 3rd person enables you to turn your head into a giant telescope and look over walls/around corners without leaving your cover, then no to 3rd person. in a realism shooter i expect everything to be as realistic as possible. granted, i already play 1st person only. and so i expect everyone to do the same, at least in combat. because - why play a realism shooter when you don't like realism and cheat.

there is this one thing that happened when helicopters made their way back in 1.7.2.4. of course we went out to find us one and see if there are any dumb things we can do with it. skalisty island is said to be the best place to check, so we went to look there and found something completely unexpected. when we prepared to set over, someone saw something below in the water, it didn't look like it belongs there. by a closer look it appeared to be the helicopter we were out to find, just not quite in the spot where we expected it. so, what to do? god knows what happened, mostlikely it was some newb pilot, trying to fly the helicopter off the island without repairing it, it would fall of the sky within seconds due to fuel leaking out. chances are the helicopter is only damaged and still inact as a vehicle, that would mean it would take like a week for it to respawn. not on one of our regular severs, so we thought of a way to make sure its in fact fully destroyed. throwing a nade of a boat is not possible, so we decided to dive down and check whats up point blank. now to anyone who doesn't know, it IS possible to dive in dayz, sort of. if you happen to get into deep water with a broken leg, you don't swim but sink to the ground. you don't take damage, and you can move on the ground. good to know if you lost something valueable after taking a bath... so. one guy volunteered for the mission. we broke his leg, banaged his wounds and brought him out on the sea right above the helicopter. our pilot approached the helicopter and got on the driver seat, and then... *BOOM* the helicopter turned into a giant light bulb for a split second. sometimes, when you enter a helicopter, it starts the engine right away. and a damaged helicopter on sea-ground apparently takes offense at that. an explosion from a helicopter under water, caused by a guy with a broken leg crawling across the sea ground with a flashlight. i laughed so hard that i hurt my stomach. it also blew the boat apart. the boater found himself bleeding in the water, but he was able to swim to the coast in time to bandage himself. the pilot was also still alive, bleeding to his death because he didn't take any bandages with him. here is a recording of the event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0MZdWZIZ78&feature=plcp voice chat is german. the video appears very dark on youtube for some odd reason, the video i made is way more bright. the youtube enhencer didn't help either. and yea, thats me at the end :S

why is the L85 AWS getting the boot?

going after playercount is useless, in no time you have 10 less or more players on a server, but that doesn't even mean anything as they can be anywhere on the map, usually crowding around popular places of course. just pick a server with active admins and decent ping, apply common sense, and hope for the best.

Use DayZCommander, jump on any random server, check out the mod names on youtube to see what the custom maps look like. chernarus is just big, namalsk is more pvp oriented, lingor is for hanging out at the beach. and don't listen to people telling you to play on a private hive. custom maps are always on private hives, but playing chernarus on a private hive is only for carebears and wannabee-bandits.. private hives have cheaters too and usually you have only one server where you can play on - when it goes down, your character goes down with it. and usually admins are even more retarded then on public servers. chernarus is nice, but the other maps are worth a look if you can live with the private hive concept.

I would like to see the reason why I am on the Community banlist.
Azrail (DayZ) replied to axe_killer123's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
i dont know about a community banlist. but if you get banned on every server, you should probably take it to battleeye. and good luck about that.
