Would be good to have a bit more evenness when you are running up a slope, and drop to a dead walk when the slope gets slightly steeper. If you can run that fast, you ought to be able to scramble up a real slope fairly quickly. I don't mind - just remarking.

Yeah that works, death cures everything being sick works charcoal used to work - this patch I dont know Anyone know for the "your leg hurts" ??? I got this message every 5 mins - I can run fine, I eat and drink, I get fully Healed status "your leg hurts" I < use alcohol > previously you would get message "you clean your wounds" and "your wounds feel better" but now nothing, just "your leg hurts" But Im fully green,totally Healed, Fed, Hydrated, even Stuffed This is now 40 mins later; so I was looking for some sticks to try a splint - in case this "your leg hurts" means Fracture and does not mean Bad Wound or Infected Wound but I got bored (I'm running through forests and villages with an axe looking for '2 sticks'?) so I used morphine and it went away... no other change to my Healthy state, no message so anyone know what "your leg hurts" is Supposed to indicate ?? there is also a message I have seen "your arm hurts" which is also cured by morphine. I assumed that was a fracture/break, but you cant run with a leg fracture, I think ?? I guess with a broken arm you should not be able to aim?

If you click once on a server in the list it will test the ping again for that server - so the 200-500 ping is actually the real ping. Unfortunately. You have a ping problem - are you using wifi or sharing a connection? Put the ping filter to 0 and all the servers available will be listed. But as I said, in the first listing the ping may not be the true one, as a result of your connection speed. Its very common to get "Wait for Host" screen forever, for a server with 0 players. Can also happen with 3 - 5 players, Test your ping at OOkla www.speedtest.net

Problem is the server only keeps a record of your state, not of what you are doing to get to that state. So it doesn't remember if you were killed with an axe or by a fall. It just subtracts the points and decides if you are dead or not. So it would need a new set of information stocked for each player to say "how". Also - of course - the server is NOT going to say "you were killed by a glitch" Because it wouldn't know that, would it?

Could have maybe a general message: Killed by Gunshot Melee weapon Fall Zombie Starvation But you usually know this anyway, and it might be difficult to implement. Also - for realism, I believe its very unusual for dead persons to get messages explaining what happened, and I dont think they generally read them anyway.

I found you have to go into video settings and 'reset' them (as they are already) or they don't seem to be taken into account since the patch - looks to have worked for me, but some difference remains

I found the answer is Steam Turn off Steam. plug your headset in, THEN launch steam. OK - why it does this I dunno - it detects the mike I guess, but I should still have sound. BUT I don't. I do it every evening when I switch from speakers to headset. There IS an option in Steam somewhere, but I'm too lazy. Try it.

You think Kuwait and USA Central are in the same TIME ZONE ? "cough" That's your mistake m8

The zepplin32 font is definitely included in Arma2 (I checked the list), it's not found, that IS why you have no text on your options screen. - britishfalcon - on ARMAHOLIC/Operation Arrowhead/Troubleshooting, had exactly the same problem, and the solution: http://www.armaholic.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=17193 << FIXED it was quite simple really and something im a bit annoyed at myself for overlooking, i know a few people who have had the same problem and it wasnt down to mods. make sure arma 2 is updated to the latest version. i never played arma 2 online on its own, only arrowhead. and because they were different versions it wasnt compatable and couldnt run as combined ops. so put quite simply, download the latest update for arma 2 and make sure everything is up to date and patched and it will fix it. because it is easy to overlook that arma 2 needs updating as well as arrowhead even if you dont run arma 2 >> ed: ok I see kichilron got there first.

LOL - me too!.... sorry bro..should have kept my big mouth X but in fact it was from a clue I picked up right here on another thread, and I thought.. "hey, I'll check that" and -hep - (don't worry, will take weeks before word gets around, no one reads this stuff)

Well, it can't find a font "zepplin32" and that's why your choice buttons have no text in them. Couldn't say more without being there and messing. If you googling try "Arma 2 missing font" ??

When you reinstalled, are you sure you downloaded the updates and brought it to the current version ? You use DayZ Commander? That can be helpful sometimes.

This shows a zomb jumping on me FROM the first floor, as an example that you can't expect them to act fair all the time.. http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/182234-post-patch-zombie-feedback/?view=findpost&p=1923675 xx

Actually it's not, its about the same (varies for different weapons and skills.. but generally ..) loading one round does not take longer than changing out a magazine, difference is your mag has a lot of rounds in it. But also - for instance - in RL, the M4 is modern designed for quick change. Putting a clip of rounds into an SKS takes more time and more careful action (IMO). Reloading a hunting rifle in RL, of COURSE you wouldn't keep the spare rounds in your backpack. You'd have to be crazy.

Started spawning stuff where it didnt spawn before (but should have) Look in barns, look around wrecked trucks LOOK UNDER THE BLUE CARAVANS you heard it here first

I've seen such things! I've SEEN great night servers with Moonlight.. I've PLAYED on them.. .. but .. perhaps that was all in the ..past and .. now is the time to die

Yeah - but.. Really for cool and useful how about ?

SPOTTED !

Needle and thread. Just stitch it up.

With a stick and a rock we should be able to make a stone axe or at least a club We can already craft bows and arrows Because when the jesus-with-no-pants cult hears about this Object An endless age of darkness will spread again across the world

Yes: Fighting zombs I just keep the forward button pressed All the time, and use the mouse to circle and circle always keep coming back right on top of the zombie and hitting it, that way you are always changing your angle to them. If they get lined up on you for 1 second from any distance, close or far, they hit. You can do the same with 2 or 3 as long as you always move and turn. Sokak has it sorted I think. I just heard today that a bayonet is good because you can punch them straight in the head with it, hardly any risk of missing - I never tried that, I thought fireaxe or pitchfork were the best (pitchfork good!), but things change?

Here: (today for how long?) http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/188465-torchias-improved-m1911-textures/page-2#entry1940865 found engraved 1911 here (link) - still there. Nice. You should have at least an hour before next reset, but who knows? xx

Iff ya interested: the new 1911 with the DUDE grips is NOW in the top room of the office building at the West terminus of the railway (no placename) located a click NW of Lopatino - on server: DayZ GB 1-172 Hosted by MultiplayGameservers.com NOW at 12:53 CET 26/04 just saw it. Nice. go fight for it xx

I put some stuff for beginners about running away from zeds - and getting the better of them, at: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/182234-post-patch-zombie-feedback/page-50#entry1939725 but you heard most of this here in this thread already One thing though - dont try to fight zombies indoors. If you hear them coming while you're inside looting - decide STRAIGHT AWAY if you want to fight or run, if you're going to run get your hands empty so you can run fast - start running. If you're going to fight, get outside the house into a space. Get your weapon up. Fight them there. If you try to fight inside the house they come in and out through the walls, turn round inside the walls, so you can never keep on top of them to hit them, and you can't see where they're coming from, and they hit through the walls too. So fight in an open space - you have a lot better chance. xx
