    Please change the QUIVER back to previous patch

    This.. this really needs fixed. A quiver would be slung across the back or hip, and one automaticly removed when you reload. Now, we empty a quiver, that is in a back back, into the backpack, and pull one at a time from there? Really? The point of quivers was to balance the backpack space use of bolts, against single shot, long reload times. All thrown out of the window it seems.

    No Pepsi, Coca-Cola or Heinz in standalone

    No you can't, because you would be trading off a misspelling of a trademarked name. If no money was involved in the tansaction of your product (the game), and your customer (the gamer), then you are not trading off the registered brand name. However, in SA, the company taking the money for the game, is making money, and using a trademarked logo/item etc. in doing so. A deliberate misspelling is no defence when it comes to trademarks or registered company names. Also, if a registered company or company owning a trademark does NOT defend its registered assets, then they become generic, and usable by all, so you will just get sued right up the ass unless you agree a deal with the owner of the trademark or company name. Best bet, is to release with no company names, brands or logos, but after launch, depending on sales, approach companies and see if they want to pay for billboards in towns or by roadsides that display their brand. That way, you don't need to pay them for the use of the brand, they can pay you for advertising. /edit for random spelling, and beans.

    Favourite background music while on DayZ

    The ambient nosies make me jumpy enough in this game without another layer of confusion over the top; Besides, hearing distant gunshots and choppers is as good a soundtrack as I could wish for.

    Day Z Urban Legends

    I hear, from the birds, And sometimes from the bees, That there is a small group of people, That live among the trees. Thay hang around Elektro, And sometimes close to Rog, Spying out for bambies, To shoot them like a dog. These bandits have no morals, They are not like you and me, They shoot on site, don't give a shite, Maybe it's better to be a bee.

    Dayz koS would be rife irl if there was an apocalypse

    Every time I read a topic like this, it just reminds me that I haven't watched the last Walking Dead.

    Hotfix Build 1.7.2.5 Rolling Update

    FLUSH your graphics memory people.. the game stores a lot localy, shutting down the client and relaunching it will do nothing, if you have issues, you need to flush your client data.. So do one of these things : Hold left shift and double tap - twice on the keypad, then release shift and quickly type 'flush' OR, change something like the memory setting in the video options, to something else, quit the game, relaunch the game, change back to your original settings, quit again. and relaunch the client..

    Hotfix Build 1.7.2.5 Rolling Update

    1st log in with 1275, and I can't look at the horizon, without big ass triangles.. done a maual flush ( shift and double tap - twice on the keypad, then release shift and quickly type 'flush')... no glitches since Reset your gfx options to force a flush, or do a manual flush.. seems to have sorted it out for me anyway..
  9. If you're the admin, and you have read the logs.. then why the fuck are you here? If you have proof that a client is scripting, just ban the guid..
  10. 'game logs that are easily read'.. have you actually tried to read any of the dayz server logs? Please, can some admin, post an excerpt of the current logs, removing guid's and positional data, and see if Mal thinks they are easily read? To spawn vehciles, you need to be either a scripter or an admin (and reset the server)... The admins won't be caught, because they are not running scripts in their clients.. Also, are you playing on private hives or the offical hive? The sooner this goes to stand alone, the better, to get rid of cretins.. And Malphos.. if I find you bleeding out.. I'll just watch you slip into a coma, and then set a fireplace on your rotting corpse, and cook some meat on it.. Maybe that would be too good a send off..
  11. Except if it's the admins of the server... and the logs have to come from the admins.. I'm not suggesting that it is, and most of the script kiddes will get banned in the next BE wave (it's not insta-ban for cheaters, otherwise they would know what is and is not being detected), but if you're being harrased, then try and find a server that you trust. Join the clan forums and talk to the people running the server.. if you have problems, then get back to them, and give them enough details of the incident (time, conditions, weapons used etc etc), and that should give them a better angle to look in the logs..

    What a rare chance of this happening!!

    Rare chance storries.. worked my way down from north of berez.. through indy spots looking for engine parts (found an ATV in need of an engine).. No parts about at all.. on my way back up, walked around the side of a building, and found a UAV, good to go, and loaded with medical supplies.. so stuff the ATV, and I booted it into the sunset with a nice 4x4.. Sadly, it was the admins vehicle (UK117 mofo police), and they quickly reset the server when they noticed it was gone, before I maanged to park it.. But, on the OP's kill... that was a righteous kill.. He alt-f4'd on death, which is why you didn't get a body.. but still a good kill..

    It's a cruel, cruel world for a noob

    Except the only ammo you can use in it is the G17 ammo.. as opposed to the multitudes of .45 acp and 1911 ammo, which you can convert from one to the other.. I'll be sticking with the 1911...
  17. alan.dougherty@ntlworld.com

    It's a cruel, cruel world for a noob

    1911 and revolver have interchangeable ammo.. if you have a clip of .45, right click it, and you can convert it to 1911 ammo, and vice versa.. The 1911 and the revolver are still the best handguns in the game, so either one is good, and you can convert the ammo from one to the other.

    Progress

    If the server name says 'private hive' in the title, then it is not an offical dayz server.. playing on it will not affect your offical hive character, but, no other server will have that character info.

    The Scariest Thing in the Game

    One thing that terrifies me, is walking through woods at night, and coming across a lit chem light.. Straight out, face in the dirt paranoia right there.. then crawl away in the direction you came from, listening for the slightest twig snap...

    Serious Bug - Mass Killing of nearly all players on Server

    Kingsix.. I've NEVER had the misfortune to have this happen on any server that I've been playing on.. either you are the unluckiest son of a bitch to walk this earth, you're being stalked, OR it is connected to you in some way.. which is it? Tell you what tho.. if I see your name on the player list, I'm getting the fuck outa dodge..

    UK 180 - Doomed to Consume Community hosted by Xstreamgaming.net

    I'd love to find a good server, with good admins, (been burned on uk117 mofo too many times), but, since my weapon of choice is the x-bow.. that has fucked up sights to start with.. I'll have to pass, until the crossbow gets it much needed fix.. Nice to see a server advertise itself tho.. most of the cretins, won't reply to complaints..keep it up.. and if the x-bow gets sights that can be used on non ch servers i'll see ya there.. :)

    UK 117 BAN/ADMIN ABUSE

    The sound of the admins excuses are deafening in here... /me watches the tumble weeds drift by... Isn't it lucky that there's 3rd party websites that log server restarts?

    For the love of god please remove the knock out mechanic

    Again, I'd rather have a pistol or an mp5 inside a bullding.. the point was that the OP gave NO details on the situation.. he got owned buy a girl with a pistol while 'better geared'... I'd be 'better geared' inside a building with an axe than the OP with a 50 cal.. see where this is going? The flames are coming because the OP is incapable of giving details of the incident, but still finds it accepctable to bitch on the forums about being owned, while he was 'better geared'... Oxymoron at it's finest.. the emphasis being on the moron part, in this case. Have a nice day..

    UK 117 BAN/ADMIN ABUSE

    Actually, I think you found our camp off the coast, that we interrupted their raid on.. we killed them, and then they reset the server 3 times to get their gear back.. nothing really in there.. but we did get some nice nvg's, a 50 cal and backpacks off their rotting corpses...
