  2. It just barely reaches around the 25% mark, and then it will stop. Would unzipping the incomplete file work? Reinstall what? Arma 2 and OA? I'd rather not, it is a hefty download again via Steam and DayZ functions normally. I suppose I could uninstall and reinstall DayZ commander, but something tells me by the error reports that the master server is dropping out or attempting to do something on my computer that perhaps my firewall isn't allowing?
  3. I have attempted to install the latest version, previous versions, and even .34 which indicates there is no such file. Each time I keep getting the following ! in a red triangle box. Anyone know how to resolve this?
  4. A dream of mine would be sandbox creation of strongholds/fortification. Defending it from roaming hordes, stocking it, ensuring it remains secure. Or. An ability to barracade a building, and place an anti-spawning flooring to prevent spawn hopping behind lines. If a player spawns in the non spawn area, they are teleported 20 yards away and outside of the building.
  5. I had a good solo play through for 2 months, burnt out. Came back after a break for a month and started playing with mates only to have the hacking/scripting begin to reach a climax. We put up with it for a few weeks, had a break until BE sneakily claimed they resolved it. But it didn't take long for them to return, and on a nightly basis we had to start over and over again. We had the tent stashes, but even that began to dwindle with each thunderdome or insta-death. Until stand-alone, me and my mates are just playing Borderlands 2 and will probably get WarZ when it goes live before DayZ. Whichever peaks our fancy will retain our interest at that point. I'd just like to point out that DayZ stand-alone is going to be 'locked' ie: no mods, no community changes etc, as stated by Dean Hall. This isn't going to be the holy grail of back to the future gaming, those days have come and gone. DLC and the innovation of those creating it are all we can pin our hopes and dreams on.

    Convince me to buy the game.

    As it stands it is not really worth it. A lot of the hype has come and gone, the remaining players suffer nightly hack/scripts. A few months ago I would've tried to convince you, now just save that $30 and wait for the stand-alone.
  7. If they haven't broken any laws or legislation they will be freed regardless of internet speculation or petitions. I personally want no involvement in the decision of this, as there are no hard facts. It's for the courts to decide.

    Free Gear IS GONE

    Anyone with a thermal is going to have a field day.
  9. There is no need to be concerned re: balance and such. Stand-alone will have it's own alpha state in which balance will be fiddled with no doubt. Remain calm, keep stroking the furry wall, and wait for stand alone. I personally can't believe that games like WarZ and DayZ are pushing for retail within a few months. It is shocking to me from my past experience in software development alone, barely near game development. The masses of statistics that you blokes are claiming won't buy the stand alone, eh I don't think that is the case at all, they know little can be done about the mod hackers. They also know to expect a more polished experience and minimal hacking come stand alone. OP and others say the masses won't but ilike it's a threat, but in reality they will buy it. There are very few decent PC games lately, fewer cover zombie and survivalism, fewer attempt to create an all encompassing reality experience - namely DayZ. It will be successful because it is basically innovative, something rare these days if you look at hollywood, and sequel after sequel of game development. PS. I've never even seen another lead developer like Rocket post in the games own forums - eg. ghost recon, borderlands 2, so on and other games. But for Dayz this is something I've seen him and his fellow developers and team do time and time again. Communication alone is clear to me that they do listen, and it will show in the end product.

    Wipe tents, not player hive.

    It really won't make a difference. People want a hive wipe to clear out the scripted/hacked guns that are stored and used. Seeing as the hackers/scripters have updated their software to bypass the updated BE, there is no point at all, as they will just spawn in the same loot and it will become widespread again throughout the hive. Without eliminating the hacker issue, wiping the hive resolves nothing. The only solution is to wait for stand alone.
  11. Crashed heli spawned nothing but FN FALs - 5 of them.
  12. With the update to the scripts/hacks bypassing BE globals again, it is getting tiresome. I'll wait for WarZ and DayZ retail, jump on with some mates when we're bored. But half the time we get insta-killed or thermal sniped. Plenty of games releasing soon that will tide us over such as Borderlands 2 until retail.
  13. Yes. I presume this won't mean the removal of sandbags or tank traps.

    Why are dayz players so hated?

    Most like it isn't any representation of the Arma 2 community as a whole, but rather some elitist jerk. Water off a ducks back and don't generalise that it is the community as a whole. Before they know it we'll all have moved onto stand-alone and they can have fun with Arma 3.
  15. I'm very sorry that you don't like DayZ. Here is something that you may enjoy more: http://www.hellokittyonline.com/
