Dayz Service Down / DDoS Attack

it's not safety! -
I don't want to labour the point but a decision was made and then much later you posted a couple of examples that you considered proved the decision wrong. That's all there is too it.
-
you are here to shut down this thread. I'm against that and I will speak up against that every time. If the mods want to close the thread then fine but, unlike you, I'm not going to question them and paint them as hypocrites by quoting old posts etc. I'm not upset by your post at all btw. If I was a mod and you were basically calling me a hypocrite then maybe I'd be upset.
-
wow seems like a pretty innocent thread has really upset you. Could you not just ignore the thread? Is there not a rule about second guessing mods/questioning mod decisions?
-
anyone wondering why firefights are shit

If my past experiences are anything to go with I expect the op to be called a troll and this thread labelled as slander :D -
Can someone explain how loot spawn/respawn works?
freethink replied to shokaloop's topic in General Discussion
Most servers are persistent atm even if they say they aren't. I'd guesstimate 5% of servers have persistence off. The akm only spawns in mil locations. Lots of mosins. Try the small one room log cabin in the corner. -

freethink replied to shokaloop's topic in General Discussion
if a server is persistent then loot generally doesn't respawn on restart but instead certain locations will have thousands of items all spawning in together - most other places will just have books etc. on non persistent servers loot respawn on restart. -
To the op: The best thing you can do(next time) is report it to the tracker. They'll ask for various details - crash dumps etc and will look at the issue closely. The odd thing about trackers is almost everyone presumes someone else reported it. Even if your report is a duplicate that means at least you aren't alone experiencing the bug.

do ammo boxes spawn at fire stations? I thought they only spawned at crash sites now? I'd guess what happened was someone killed a duper then unpacked their stuff. They are having dupe parties ffs! On the plus side, I think bi/be are basically giving these people enough rope to hang themselves until the big anti-cheat update happens so that's why we are seeing so many aholes. Eugene practically dared them to cheat. For now they are just monitoring afaik.

I've had the thing where I'm playing with friends and we all crash simultaneously. Mostly I've been lucky and been able to log back in with my gear (unusually way back further than I expect) but once I got back and was a freshie. I presume it's someone killed me as I was lagging/crashing. It may be a hack but I wouldn't say it's 100% sure to be one. And I'm not one of those guys in denial re hacks. Said to a pal recently that I can barely remember the last time I was killed by a legit player or glitch.
-
They removed the neaf. Obviously you'll see less people at rify. If you want to snipe a steady stream of people go to cherno/balota.
-
Yes.
-
congrats man. ignore the haters. they tend to just bump the thread anyway.

http://www.zombieskelper.com/index.php is great. It's just in the middle of changing to new servers hence the low numbers on board but typically it's 2x50/50 Register on the site to get whitelisted. For 1st person only try: http://oldschooldayz.net/index.php

Problem with this merge is that I don't think the game is shit and want my money back.
freethink replied to Barbosa1955's topic in General Discussion
the unmerge...oft spoken of rarely seen. -
congratulations you have correctly identified the least of my worries!
-
I found the pump action very inconsistent. I've had one shot kills and also 3 shots fired and not much happened. The double barrel unsawn is the best shotgun in my experience.
-
With me basically the vent out was blocked. So instead of hot air being expelled it was just being recirculated and the insides would get hotter and hotter until the gpu said "no more!" and shut down. You need to open up your pc and visually check - it's probably be obvious that where the hot air is supposed to be expelled is clogged. In my case I didn't need compressed air or replacement thermal paste all I had to do is clear a blockage.
-
It's probably your gpu over heating and shutting the pc down to protect itself. Used to happen to me.
-
I shot a fresh spawn because I needed a battery for my rangefinder. And he obviously didn't have a battery anymore. Apart from fresh spawns requesting being killed or being killed after trying to attack me that was the only fresh spawn I've ever killed. Never again.
-
nothing is longterm, once you start shooting.
-
It wasn't that exact video but that's a million times better. I think that's probably the same mod I'm thinking of. to me that's perfect bar the shouting.
-
That's kind of what I was getting at. I've seen an arma3 mod that achieves this better than the ones posted but unfortunately can't find it.
-
I think it looks a bit odd. When I look through a (tele)scope I tend to close the other eye and even if i do open it the scoped view will be to the right not in the middle. I'm not saying the scopes are great atm but there was a better arma3 scope video posted before that seemed a lot more realistic. (No idea where it is sorry)

If it's persistence enabled just get the fuck out of cherno
