  1. Why not just play on experimental? I stopped playing on stable weeks ago because of hackers and I don't intend on going back any time soon. Any security fixes will generally go on exp. first plus most people with paid hacks aren't going to risk playing on a version the hack isn't stated to work on. The only hackers on exp. will probably be hack authors and most people who use hacks don't have the technical knowledge to write them. In terms of risk, even if we accept there are hackers on exp., there's still a far lesser opportunity of meeting one.
  2. as I suspected a european server. haven't played the vid, presume it was an eastern european.

    Woot! No more poor mans UAV!

    Posted about this in the exp thread (and another thread that got deleted) but yes had multiple contacts and no red chain warning. Hopefully it's gone for good.

    First-Aid Kits disappearing

    They aren't always empty. They just appear to be. Try putting something in them. Or pick them up and then drop them. Happened to me a couple of times too.

    The spirit of day z is dieing

    concern troll is concerned. Honestly I love this game. I've never played as many hours in an online game as this. Yeah it's super flawed at the moment but it's still a unique gaming experience despite being nowhere near finished. Also I'm getting a bit tired of these people stating that dayz should be something it never was and if it's not what they want then it's dying.

    Will we ever get the 100 player servers?

    Could be wrong but I think he said the sweet spot was something like 60 players. The 100 person servers were amazing. I starved to death with two cans and no can opener.

    Not new, returning...what's changed?

    It's like arriving at charles de gaulle and saying "ok I was here on my holidays twenty years ago, I demand you tell me exactly what's changed and for free" Honestly, I'd just deport you immediately

    compass is not pointing straight

    is it damaged? Is the north slightly to the left?
  9. header or footer would do. We are currently 3 clicks away from the tracker. Let's make it one click. Thank you for reading

    [meta] Add a link to the tracker in the forums

    I'm not saying it's a waste of my time or anyone elses. What I noticed myself and with other people is that in general we would moan about this problem or that in posts but rarely if ever report the bugs to the tracker even though we know it's there. The idea of a header link to the tracker is to both make it easier to get to the tracker but to also remind people that the tracker is the place to file bug reports. It is an alpha after all and the tracker is central to that. This is just chat. The tracker is the real interface with the devs.

    [meta] Add a link to the tracker in the forums

    Accepted. Let's make it one click from any page on the forum. It's two clicks from here.

    location of balota airstrip?

    I think it's gone from stable too now. It's replaced by a civilian airfield with an atc, warehouse and little else. It's a work in progress.
  14. Should see a big improvement on stable today. I didn't notice any on experimental but I stayed well clear of berezino and the neaf isn't the hotspot it once was.

    How would you combat player suicide?

    I think the variety of spawn points mitigates things.

    I'm new here, but I need help

    apart from the initial start up of the game does a ssd actually make a big difference?

    I'm new here, but I need help

    OP listen to this man! I'd say you want i5 minimum. I have an i7 but not as good a gpu as you've listed and it's certainly playable. fyi I have an i7-2670qm and gtx570m

    location of balota airstrip?

    if you are playing on stable then there's an airfield west and slightly north of where you are. balota is the the furthest away airfield from you. It's in the south west of the map on the coast. http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus You are north east on the map...south of svetlo, east of khelm, north of berezino
  19. saw three chase and kill a cow last night:(

    Are people still only at NE and Berizino?

    Seems to be plenty of action at Balota once more. Reminded me a lot of the old neaf in terms of action.
  21. A while ago I finished someone off by shooting their foot. I had hit him once in the torso then he bandaged out of sight but his foot was just slightly sticking out.
  22. Move to experimental for the time being. That's what I did. I'm sure there are hackers on exp. too but they just aren't as noticeable. Also any security fixes will usually be tried out on exp first. I felt the same way you did and playing exp. is what saved it for me.

    Are there tents yet?

    If you click on "change theme" (bottom left) then select "IP.Board" you should be able to see things more clearly
  24. The law wasn't the point really. The point is payment processors avoid risk and anything that is of "highly debatable" legality isn't something conservative payment processors would want to be part of.
