    Who decided to make hacksaw's so rare?

    Were you looking under the small roof of the shed we talked about? Or most industrial spawns? Like McWendy said, DayZ knows what you're looking for, and works hard keeping you away from it. B) Just roam around not looking for anything and M4s will fall from the sky! :lol:

    I decided to quickly log into a server to post a screen of the shed Whyherro123 was talking about. Look what I found! :lol:

    Find pistol silencers yet? or mp5 compensators?

    The pistol suppressor (the only one I know is the .45 suppressor which seem to work with the CR75 9MM pistol and the MP5k also) was re-added in the first 0.52 experimental we had which lasted only 1 day, with every item spawning randomly everywhere, no matter the location. (sheds seemed to have a bit more AKM, AUG, attachments and "military" items than even the barracks or camo buildings...) A day after, it returned to normal with the exception of the teddy bears under xmas trees around the map, which add the assault rifles suppressors, but the .45 suppressor was gone. Quivers and a few other items are also missing from the current loot tables.

    Stable Branch - 0.52 Discussion

    Seriously, with 5 posts under your belt, I dunno who's trolling. Enjoy your wipes till this bug of yours, and 95.68% of players who can't play because their characters always gets wiped, is fixed. Blame the internets for anything online with hives not correctly connecting to clients/servers. Edit: Not sure if it's worth it, but... 1- There's confirmed reports that logging back into a server that just restarted was prone to wipe your character. (Waiting for 60 to 120 seconds prior to entering the server again might be a good idea.) 2- This bug, is not really in the same category as many others, as we know bugs have to be within the game, and shared by most if not all users with a reproducibility to be able to pinpoint the bug and fix it. Like others, I've somehow avoided this bug for the entire time I've played DayZ, since I got it on December 18th 2013. Since I don't have this bug, there's a possibility it's more of a client side problem than a server side one. Might even be hardware related. (Though I highly doubt it.) 3- It will be pretty difficult to pinpoint the actual reason why it's happening to some, and not others, but eventually with might see an increased stability for everyone.
  7. :thumbsup: This is indeed very useful, and interesting. I think when we get basic "base building" and a more stable persistence we might see an overhaul for bullet penetration and most object "durability". This is just an assumption though.

    There are no "character wipes" apart from the ones the devs do with complete hive wipes to get rid of duped, or glitched items. Some players experience "character wipes" when changing hives or servers, but it's mostly due to mistakes reading the server info (private, public, 1PP, 3PP, etc.) and some servers are even made by admins to wipe glitched characters. (Don't join, character will be wipe or Character reset if joining.) Those servers always have the possibility to be hoax to keep players away from them, but some of them are legit and made that way. I have 7 different characters on private hives, plus the 2 public ones (3pp and 1pp) and more than 900+ hrs, and I have to say that I never had a character wipe that wasn't intentional. Even back in 0.47 and 0.48, when we used to get the "Server wasn't able to connect to the public hive to retrieve your character info." message and spawned fresh on the shores, you just had to leave the server, and rejoin to get your character back. This happened to me at least 40 times, but never lost the character from it. DayZ, as a software, is a bit more complicated than others, more user friendly ones.

    Damn French always make me so nervous

    Bandana, armed ghillie "snipers" makes me more nervous... <_< But great improvised team work there. Interesting to see people team up on the fly like that. :thumbsup: (If you were nervous in any way, it really didn't show. Very nice aim and reflexes.)

    Experimental Branch: 0.53 Discussion

    I enjoyed reading that. :thumbsup: I wish I could have tested exp a bit before it went down. Never got around to play experimental after the first few hours, the first day 0.53 came out. Really hoping for my exp fix this week. (There's really no reason to push 0.53 to stable currently, right? ;) ) We'll see in the beginning of next week how it goes.

    This is probably the "expect rolldbacks" Eugene talked about. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/219042-twitter-eugen-in-todays-experimental-update-you-can-expect-quite-a-bit-of-desync-and-rollbacks-sanity-checks-that-will-need-tweaking/

    You need to add 5 sticks (take them in your hands and mouse whell over for the option) or 3 logs now. You can now add stones to make a furnace, and the "cooking stand" to attach the cooking pot.
  13. Are the background voices from S.T.A.L.K.E.R.?? It really sounds like the voice actor for the NPCs! :lol: When I saw the first sneak peak screenshot of the track suit jacket and pants, first thing that came to my mind was this: (Original version)
  14. Man, I miss the Sherif of Berezino... It seems that since he's left, thise place has gone to hell! :( I wish you a great 2015 Kata! If you ever read this! Take care man! (P.S.: Will you ever come back to DayZ? Is your brother still playing?)

    Sooo i saw this...

    This was the teddy bears under the Christmas trees for the holidays. A week or so prior to Xmas, Christmas trees were added in major cities and other locations across Chernarus, and under these trees are Teddy with gifts inside them. (fruits, ammo, can openers, suppressors, etc.) Since we didn't get another Stable build patch, they are still across the map. See 0.52 Happy Holidays on the top left corner of the screen when you log into a server.
  16. :thumbsup: It will go in perfect harmony with the slave clothes! B) Black or blue track suit jacket and pants, check! Vodka, check! Crazy Russian Party, it's on!
  17. It seems to be the opposite for me 109.70.149.10 is 3PP/1PP and 109.70.149.80 is 1PP only.

    Guitar Melee weapons.

    Seriously I'd love to have a playable guitar in game. I doubt that we'll get this anytime soon, if we ever get playable guitars. :lol: In Two Worlds 2, there's something almost identical to what you say, and I have to admit that I spent a lot of time playing guitar in that game! Had mods in Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim that added instruments, and a mod in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky too. Maybe when we get mods for the Stand Alone, someone will add something similar. (Mods: That was something Dean Hall was looking forward, but since he's gone, I have no clue if we ever gonna see player based mods in the game...)

    :thumbsup: Definitely. (But you could also have added that idea to the already started thread in suggestions. The search function is very easy to use and is your friend!) http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/207497-guitar-melee-weapons/?hl=guitar

    Quick question: Is the forum thread with screens and videos of happenings on the server still going to be used/updated? This one? http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/216717-fog-clans-4040-club-gallery-share-your-experiences-with-all-photos-videos-inside/#entry2177849

    Menu and inventory all in French

    Click on "configurer" then "jouabilité" and choose english instead of french.

    Lets post some screen shots (Standalone)

    Having some electricity here and there and be able to turn on some lights in houses would be awesome. I always liked some soft lighting around villages and towns. I missed those days when some lamp posts were still lit. I wonder if it will eventually be possible to have some kind of generator and build similar light sources instead of only using chemlights, flares, or camp fires. Old shots from around February and early March 2014.
