dissaifer

someone lock this thread before it gets worse.

some one hacked the server, and whoever did it doesn't know the hintsilent command.

I like how people are hacking dayz to play normal Arma...

I know asked this in another thread but this was just started yesterday. - trending logins (how often, what time, areas of the world) - new logins vs old (basically are there new players) - repeat logins (how often does the average player come back) - average time logged in - time (in game) users are logged in (night statistics versus day) - most common weapons carried - average time between weapon changes (finding a new one and switching - with and without ammo need) - time spent crawling - time spent hunched over - average time alive (old vs new logins) - place most people die - most common reason for death (old vs new logins) - and just for fun, average per day of non-hostile deaths, falling, starving, etc.

BI is really a good group, I've never seen a studio so dedicated to a community. Kinda sad some of these players won't visit vanilla Arma and see all the other amazing mods. "Checkout his Chernarus Apocalypse mission, requires no addons (a feat it itself)" Haha, already did. I took his zombies and added some stuff (sounds on zombie hits, camera shake [in and out of a car]) to make it feel more real in a mission, it's called 11th Plague. Only let out a beta, Celery didn't like the balance but praised me for atmosphere. Speaking of is smook (smookie) - BI or contracted? I had this urge to jump a wall today and realized I couldn't. :( And go do yourself a favor, stay away for the forums for a bit.

Well, I've read the whole thing and wow. Rocket, I got to tell you man, coming from a guy who mods Arma 2, this is an amazing mod. I realize how much work this takes because I've been there, the scripting learning curve makes this game and EVE combined look like nap time and I have a programming background. Sadly, I wasn't as committed and you beat me to the punch, but I'm actually glad about that. I should still go back and try to finish it, but hey, I like playing your stuff better (and it's more playable currently). For those who don't know, the Arma modders tend to be a pretty cool lot. Celery was kind enough to let people borrow his stuff. Charon is MIA. Most people, if you ask, are willing to share the scripts, but there is always a line that you don't cross. If they ask you to take it out and you don't or if you are claiming it as your own... that's bad news. Anyway, yeah there's drama, but hey man all these new people are playing Arma because of you... and more importantly, BI is fixing the engine (finally) because of it. I'd get you drunk our of your mind if I'd ever meet you. :)

I'm not impressed... for many reasons. Regardless of play style, you shot two guys in the chest at maybe 100m and the second at 150m when they aren't moving with a DMR. One guy after he was attacked by zombies, the other you even miss a shot - and that's the whole video, really there isn't much there.

Anyone in Cherno?

Rocket you thread whore and... if that's true I may man-love you.

I don't know, something about that squeaky noise that the zombies (infected) make... just doesn't go in the game. I don't know it breaks the tension of sneaking around them. Please replace/remove it.

Reign19k - didn't you see the thread? Life expectancy is going up = less noobs

@Wade_parker - it is 'your' auditory response to seeing them, like your gut instinct.

Abandon the coast, noob tsunami imminent

Yes because it forces you to learn the basics of sneaking and throwing the cans to avoid zombies. From the videos I'm watching almost no one has learned this.

Without the actual data, I can guess. Are we allowed to have data? Things that need to be looked at: - Trending Logins - Trending total time played - Trending new logins vs old logins - Population migration (where are most players in a given time frame) - Population deaths (location and reason) And that is off the top of my head.

YES with the following additions, -volume or speed increase based on % of humanity of bandit (determines how bad) - randomness variable included (changing volume/speed) based on time player (not bandit) is alive (advantage of a seasoned survivor) - some time near bandit (5 mins or whatever) the mechanic turns off (odds are player is grouped with bandit)

Yes I've purposely dropped my guns to do in the last 3 game sessions to see if it is possible. It is.

Put your guns down and sneak. If you have no guns you have to sneak... also it's a lot more thrilling.
