Are you f-ing Kidding me HE NEEDS TO GO LOG IT IN THE FEEDBACK TRACKER, then post the link so that everyone here who is experiencing this issue can upvote it, so the development team knows how widespread this problem is and can address it in proper order. Posting spec's etc on the forum DOES NOTHING to resolve these issues

To those who dislike the new combat logging timer
Window Licker replied to africanhungergames's topic in General Discussion
It's already been thrown out there in a different thread, but how about for those who would like to know if they are safe, once you hit logout, your character becomes unable to move or act, there is no cancel option for the duration of the 30 second wait. -
oh looks it's the same defense that combat logger's used. Until they fix the gamma exploit I won't play night servers seems unfair that while I'm fumbling about some kid who feels they deserve an advantage will kill me.

Really? sounds like the perfect time to go IDGAF mode and run about like a madman.... if you're going to lose it anyway might as well have some fun... time's already been answered.

I read this post, when it went up and thought wow what a troll post, I hope no-one replies and it vanishes into the depths with a pair of concrete boot's.....

This is a known issue with certain video cards, the problem, the card ran out of colors to render the pixels with and need's more. The solution, pour paint onto your video card until problem stop's occurring. In my experience this is about 2-3 gallons of regular paint, and 5-6 cans of spray paint. No need to thank me, just doing my bit to fight stupidity on the internet.

The current implementation of the logout timer is trollish.
Window Licker replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
Speaking of low detail, I'm in the same boat, do you have difficulty seeing people at a distance, my draw distance is at 1500 so it should be fine but I've had instances where looking thru a long range scope I'd just see a few items of clothing floating around like a poorly dressed ghost. back O/T So the poor logger would sit and watch those he'd just fired on and praying the countdown will run out before they find and kill him. When people propose having a countdown timer this is EXACTLY what will happen and how it will be abused. People will say oh the game let's me do it so I'm gonna do it. Which is EXACTLY what people said when they tried to defend combat logging/ghosting. Yet if people exploit a bug that lets you say.. see thru walls everyone will come crying hackers because they doing know how to do that. So it comes down to this your either. Crying because you can't combat log anymore and pretending it's because you think the bogey man is going to kill your charterer in that 30 seconds. Your on board and have the smart's to log out somewhere safe and trust that you where wise enough to choose a good place for it. -
Anyone has a full copy of this Chernarus map?

The current implementation of the logout timer is trollish.
Window Licker replied to airtonix (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
This thread is borderline trollish, The implementation of a 30 second logout timer it awesome, the implementation of a penalty for server hoppers is awesome. The screen goes grey for 30 secs still see whats happening crowd, this is still combat logging, you sit with your fingers crossed watching hoping that they don't find you. For the people who think that zombies are going to eat them in the woods, aside from never running into zombies in the woods how about some situational awareness. Stop where you intend to logout, maybe eat something so you don't need to when you log back in whatever if your not intelligent enough to have a look about maybe you deserve to die. Number of people I've ran into in the woods = 0 in 117 hrs of play and several trips all over the place I've never seen a single person running thru the woods. It's not rocket surgery folks, if you think about the common destinations and the usual places people go when starting you know approximately how they are going to get there, I always grab a compass because the woods are the safest place to be, you can run as fast as you can and no-one's gonna shoot you. finally to the one person who said that making this timer was time wasted they could have used to put a car or new stuff ingame, the art department doesn't handle this shit. I will say one thing about this thread and a few others I've seen like it... It's amazing the bullshit, imaginary 1 in a billion chances of actually happening scenarios that people will present as a common event which make the system they are arguing against useless and broken. OP I disagree with your opinions as outlined above other then that I'm letting my bean's do the talking.... -
So you want a server without anyone else playing on it? or only your friends playing on it?

What will make you play the alpha again?
Window Licker replied to Igglas Cage's topic in General Discussion
I couldn't find a mask, this is the best I could do. -
I may regret this but...... The server policies are in place to prevent people from farming loot then jumping to a public server and killing everything with the 10,000 rounds of M4 ammo they farmed. When they have private hives sorted and you can't take loot farmed on your private server to the public hive I can see this being reassessed The naming regulation is in place to that the servers can be properly identified. This is alpha and as such the collection of accurate information from the player base helps development. "playing with your friend's" you can do this already on ANY server because there's no restrictions on this, if your trying to tell me it's because you want to just pve your argument doesn't hold water. Zombies aren't the most challenging of foes right now, the only challenge is when you encounter other people. Being that you just screamed they are stupid and unfair without saying why or which part's you disagree with would indicate that you didn't really think this through and after your last death at an airfield on a server with 2 people on you came here to vent cos you think you should be able to loot unhindered by pesky things such as other players.

Window Licker replied to Igglas Cage's topic in General Discussion
Top thing's hummmm.... Sound bug fixed, cos that shit's annoying esp when you hear a reload sound and spend 10 mins creeping around to find nothing Improvised weapons, I saw a post that SUGGESTED there was going to improvised bombs made from gas can's etc that would be sick. Transport, running everywhere is a bit annoying but I think that's going to be a while away Stuff in the game that I'd love to see finished, I can't wait till the rest of the map gets completed that big area north of NWAF looks interesting and so wooded, that could be interesting to have a firefight in. Zombies more threatening, but I like how it's progressing. Edit: I'm still playing regardless but these are the things that I want too see in game the most -
117ish hours, Haven't seen any cheaters, there was the one where people would delete the .pbo files, I've found a few places where I've glitched into the terrain and there's a bug that can be exploited to let you see through walls. I think the whole "game is riddled with hacker's" is a ploy to convince people in the community that they should do it too. Stealth advertising if you will.

Ouch crawl to the nearest cliff? this is why I try to carry either sticks and bandages or some morphine, it's saved me a couple of times.

From what I've found it appears they are trying to randomize it somewhat, I've noticed that in building's the spawning isn't consistent, or say there is 10 spawn points in a building, only 5 of them chosen at random will spawn a random loot item that it's capable of spawning, not 100% but it seems to be whats happening. I wanted to test it via a LAN server but that isn't possible, so it's a good old case of wait and see.

Sorry if I offended you, it's just a common theme I've seen a few time's, I'm in no way calling you a hacker. Writing a thread here isn't "reporting" him and being that all you posted was some funky stuff was going down. It's a funny topic because the more people talk about it, the more people think it's common place, the more people think that it's common the more they see it as a "way to level the playing field" therefore it gets rationalized in their minds and they try it out, this firstly put money in the pockets of those making the hacks, once sold they don't give a flying monkey doodle about if you get banned. So the player is now out of pocket again if they want to play again. It's something I'm not overly sure how I would handle it if I was a mod, but I feel these thread's create more problems and don't solve any. In that sense they become advertisement's for hacks because they are using them on the development server? making it appear that these guys are unstoppable and super good/fast at making them. you could have seen some dude rubber banding for all I know.

I was mugged and beaten, but they left a pristine PU scope and one box of Mosin ammo on me. Not 5 min's before this happened had I seen a Mosin nearby. My plan was simple, my mission clear I wriggled out of the cuffs when they left, but it glitched and thought I was still cuffed. I re-logged damn wrong server, try again okay got it. I ran to the Mosin, perfect, loaded it up placed the scope on started scouting. Then I saw him, my combat helmet, my Mosin on his back, he went into the building I scaled the ladder to the roof. Cautiously looking over the sides I see him emerge and run to the well.. too easy I smile and put him down, 2 round's to be sure, climbed down and looted the body for my stuff back... Not one of those who robbed me.. My bad they are long gone I spent like 10-15 mins trying to get this guy. To him it would have been senseless, a dickhead sniper murdering people at the well, to me it was revenge followed by some regret and a YOLO.

Not all murder is what it seem's.....

if it makes you feel any better I was shot down about 10 mins after that. -
Not all murder is what it seem's.....
Window Licker replied to Window Licker's topic in General Discussion
there was 3 of them, the Mosin I was carrying had a pristine PU scope on it already, and I had a lot of ammo, plus 2 magnums and a FX with a bunch of ammo. I thought he'd gotten separated from his buddies, or was scouting for fresh people to prey on. And yeah I totally murdered some survivor who had no idea I was there and was just getting a drink of water. -
Posts like this always show up when ever a wave of battle eye bans come thru, always from fresh accounts... Like they are gaining something from coming here and spamming that people are hacking, maybe to get it into peoples heads that "everyone" is doing it so they can sell more?

Did not know that, also whoever decided on those names must have just said "f**k it, it's friday, lets go home early"
