"Private Servers" exist and it does no good to report them
w00kie replied to thequantum's topic in General Discussion
Its called read the teams and condition's on owning a DayZ server, if you don't like them. Then don't buy one to start with, which will just end up getting blacklisted/blocked. So they will just end up wasting more money. Don't care how much they pay at the end the day. If they don't get warned then there service provider don't care about there customer and only just after there money from them. As on Game Deluxe server you are warned on the terms before buying, what you can do and what you can not do with it! -
Nice idea, be good in the city's. Looking at a city from the hills and you see the fog covering it and only just seeing the the tall buildings like Fire station tower etc. See the link below. http://media2.s-nbcnews.com/j/MSNBC/Components/Photo/_new/pb-131211-london-fog-nj-05.photoblog900.jpg Like with the rain at the moment the distance of viewing is really reduced which comes in handy on the airfields when running very quickly, like a fox!

Nice little video there! Please do more! - The Ring a Ring o' Roses soundtrack was crappy and it fitted very well with it.
-
Still very early days with the new spawn system in, so who knows what may happen down the line with it.

I had this happen to me, when BE was updating in the game it self. It updated, crashed DayZ restart my character. Loaded up DayZ again, BE updated again and was fine then, just got on with it and built my new character up. No problems with it after that. Just a hic-up. But yes people was having problems with the patch, that was not related to BE

Nice try naraga. However, you clicked on this topic first then typed it into the search bar. This then will only look in this topic, if you look in the search it only got "this topic", click on forums to clear it, then type it in again and you see the different.

Why Private Hives should be limited when they become available
w00kie replied to hannibaldaplaya's topic in General Discussion
I never played, DayZ Mod my self. I did the research before buying DayZ SA. However, I think there should be no private hives at all. As it will just make crazy admins, give them selfs loot/cars ( when they are bought in SA ) and when they just can not be arsed to play the game as its meant to be done. If there is going to be a private hive, I think it should be there for 100% testing only, i.e. new server commands/server settings/BEC etc - In away a bit like the experimental branch side of things now. -
What you said about contacting the games server providers I have and it gets no where and as for number 4) option I have also done that my self to show some has been good and some has not been good. The idea might work, if they do a public hive, along with blacklisted servers which filters though to the clients of DayZ. So then they do not see the "blacklisted" servers and end up getting kicked or with out no reason for being kicked.
-
Really?!?! I think you really need to learn what the term "Alpha" means. Being rude and typing in capital letters, will just not get you any where! I think you need to learn some manners!
-
Good idea, I like this! What objects would you be able to do this to tho? Fences, Handrail's, car doors or bike stands etc
-
290 seconds is 4.8 mins, what do you do with your timer?
w00kie replied to Smartsham's topic in General Discussion
I normally just alt and tab out of DayZ while keeping an eye on the minutes left. While doing forums / reading news etc -
I have reported a fair few my self that does this, only problem is I think the DayZ team are not that hot on this to be honest. As I have reported them, yet they still are in working order ( with the same ID/IP Address ). Why don't they set up a separate team/willing people who can be trusted to do this and crack down on them. Then again, it is Alpha, so might not be so bothered at the moment but the time comes they might be more strict in the terms. However this does not stop people re-hosting the same, under a new name and new IP address. So its a tough cookie to get around and dealing with it. Normal, BEC is good at this, we get a fair few high ping people who joins after the server restarts. So you know they join for the looting side of things. BEC kicks them in about 30-40 secs of them joining. Another note, is that when you are kicked from that server. I do the following: 1) Make note of the server IP address. 2) Take a screen shot when you have been kicked 3) Go back to your server history and take a screen shot of the server information ( will have its name and IP address ).

100% friendly server = 15 people army. And so many zombies!
w00kie replied to blurhitz's topic in General Discussion
The campers in the main city's are going to hate this. I can see it already: Zombie Spawns, Look ( or lock ) at player ( a camping one ) > Zombie hits player > camper fires gun/hit them with axe > camper/Zombie giving there position away lol! -
Pending Changelog: Experimental Branch: 0.42.116002
w00kie replied to rocket's topic in News & Announcements
Would be good if they updated the log and changes like this. So we can get a very clear idea of what has been added in the different builds or taken away at least. -
Very nice idea to put in, be good to add voice commands basic from Whistling and making false Owl/birds noise as well. It will be different each time like on a sound loop/cycle so you do not always hear a owl noise all the time from a player.
-
Banned for sure I hope!

Am not going to sound like an arse here, but this game is a based on survival / apocalypse etc Right? You have to change your game plan every time you spawn back into the game, i.e. is the main locations are looted ( you can tell by the doors being opened ) ? Then you just have to run into the main land. I have had to do this a number of times, so if you spawn near Kamyshovo you can always just run into the main land to Msta or Staroye there has been loads of food/drinks and even the fire axe there. Now the children backpacks are spawning, it can be just as easy just need change your route. Loot will always be random nothing you can do about it, to me which is better for game play and make me feel I want to "survive" and not have the loot handed to me on plate! This also works, if you spwan near the side off Solnichniy, then you can take the road up to Dolina, then to Shakhovka or then curry up north going past towns. A number of times this has saved me. Morale of the story, loot is random and always have a number of plans where you need to get to in the game and different ways/routes to reach your goal!

So i take it the stable branch will not be updated tonight then? Or it's just the experimental branch getting updated etc?
-
I think it might be the stable side, As I just been on the exp stable and nothing on there yet no patch or anything. ( or just might need time to filter though with all the updates going on )
-
Nice, will have to take a little walk there my self one day!
-
Well to be honest, with the amount of servers I have been on over the time of playing DayZ I have not encounter a hacker as off yet. However there is still time to encounter one but then it does depends if the server has active admins to stop these, which they can and is in the rules with the server. However they need to show the proof of that person is cheating etc.
-
Also forgot to add "doh" On the DayZ server you can set it to what ever you want ( Long as it stays in the server hive rules). BEC is working good, restarts every 3 hours with no problem at all. Also you can add xml files for admins/daylight, which they let you adjust etc.
