Unfortunately we're having to close the server on 2nd April 2015. We've had the server for nearly a year and appreciate all the players that like to visit the server and call it home. There's been some great sessions on there and we hope the guests have enjoyed it too. But alas all good things must come to an end and due to increasing costs it's not been possible to carry on with the server. Still be on the look out for the [XSG] tag in another server near you. :D

Still one of the highest ranked Hardcore (1st Person) Top 20 servers in the world. Regularly full, even after the crappy crashes that 0.49 patch added. >:(

The random and frequent server restarts are crashes, nothing more. GSP's can't do anything about them currently and we're waiting on a Hotfix, hopefully early next week. They should auto-restart, but you'll have the same issue until the fix is released.

Still running along nicely & good games each day & night :D

Well done to all the players braving the North East airfield tonight, it was a bit of a massacre up there for an hour or so. Good fun as always though

I'm not sure, seeing as you're new here, but did you miss all the Tweets and Posts from the Devs in various social media, interviews and blogs that outline why there's no private server files yet? You could have a Cray super computer for all the good it'll do you when the server files are not ready for public release

Big thank you to the regulars, including the Clans that visit. You make the server what it is and for that you have our Beans! ;)

I've seen 3 hackers get global banned via our server, although non recently, but it's the usual cat and mouse affair with all anti-cheat systems. The game is so in it's infancy that the tools just aren't ready or there yet but they will appear eventually. If you feel you're pissing money down the drain then you need to stop renting a server and wait. If you can't wait and you're aware of the conditions that Administrating a server currently brings, then you can't complain as you knew before signing up. We all want what you want, but you have to be patient as we're all very aware development isn't the speediest with this game.

If people could rent a Private server then that's fine, however all servers at the moment are Public and connect to the Public Hive. Private Server + Private Hive - Have your own rules & loot as much as you like. Public Server + Public Hive - Follow the BI terms of service <<< This is what we have at the moment. You rent the server hardware/game software, you never own it.

Top #8 and working hard. Clans are welcome :)

If you have access to the BEC error logs in your control panel, check there as it will tell you were the problems are. Also, make sure you end the schedule with </schedule> too. I couldn't get mine to work for a while but after checking the error logs and ensuring at the commands where all in there it works fine.

And we're into the Top 20 on Gametracker which is pretty amazing for a hardcore server & we dont restart every hour just to get server hoppers in ;) Thanks to all the regular clans and players who drop by every day and make playing DayZ what it is! New players always welcome.

Currently ranking #26 on GameTracker which is great for a Hardcore server. Most people seem to stick to the manby-pamby regular ones with their (almost a wallhack) 3rd person view ;)

This is the flipside of reporting servers that kick people so the owners can loot everything themselves. The only way I can see something being workable is there being a message in chat when a player dies and who their killer was. That and only that is shown, no location etc, just a kill message. That would give Admins the opportunity to identify the potential cheater. Unfortunately it still won't stop the reports to GSP's who can issue warnings etc

Finally we have Battleye Extended Commands working to provide player info about restarts and website info. Warnings are issued prior to any restarts.
