Spot (DayZ)

A friend of mine was just on that server and was teleported into the ocean. (No he did not pick up any clothing items and try to use them. He killed a player and soon after was teleported.) Thats all fine and dandy, but when he goes to kill himself with the respawn button.. It's grayed out. What now?

KOS isn't a problem.

The end of this video dives into being a heartless bandit. A look "Into the mind of a bandit" so to speak.

I travel with a buddy that snipes. I normally hide kinda near him and spot for him and if anyone comes up and kills him I blow them away with my AKM and watch his body till he gets back. So AKM 2 water bottles Meat (Meaning I need Knife, Hatchet, Matches) Binoculars Once I have that stuff I consider my scavenging done and my player killing started.

Got to the point when I needed to run the Beta install. I get "Wrong CD key" message. I own the game on steam... so yah. What now?

I used to update my game manually, then I found out about 6 updater and launcher. But then for some unknown reason I could no longer launch the game from steam and thats not cool. I like to use the steam friend chat system and the steam browser to load up a map for Dayz so I don't have to min the game to look at it. Anyway, for a few days I was launching from 6 launcher, but now it takes forever to join a server and when I do, the FPS is at 1 to 9. I haven't been able to play Dayz for a few days. (lol just noticed the Dayz Days thing just there. :P ) What can guy do to play this in steam again and have it playable and fun again?

Reminds me of last week when I found a car. Drove it into Electro and killed a few people with it. Server was reset, almost lost the car cuz it was dark all of the sudden. Then we drove it out of town.. Found a player and kkilled him. Then the server reset again and when it came back up, not only was it dark, but raining and the car was GONE. I would cry foul play, but who do you tell that cares? Thats the real question.

Yah. lame. Just here to tell the public that 50 players just got sent back to the coast with nothing do to hackers.

Did this. No go. Still have the error.

Just happened to myself and a friend. Came here to see if anyone else was having the same problem. Guess there's no solution yet.

I miss chatting with people. I'd never meet anyone or trust anyone on it, but it was nice to answer new players questions and chat wile I survive. It was a nice filler activity. Sad its gone, and I'd like to see it's return.

My friends and I do not kill players for murder points. We don't kill them for epeens. We kill other players because we enjoy killing real players. Go ahead and take away the murder counter. I will still drop everything I'm doing to kill a player over zombies any day of the week, and I hate to see them DC from the game to get away from me. If they catch me and I'm gonna die, guess what... I'm gonna die. I'm not gonna bitch about it, and I'm not gonna DC to get away. Its not sporty.

Look into a day of the Bandit. Not all bad, but still pretty bad. Spot & McWobbles

HAHA And I thought the Nazi's lost the war.

I'm glad you found it entertaining. :P It was fun making it. And Rocket, if you are reading this. Please try to keep this game brutal. Wobbles and I have been looking for a mature game. I think we found it. This game can be punishing! And thats how it should be.

Name says it all. I am getting tired of A-Holes that disconnect when I start shooting at them. I thought Rocket was going to patch this shit out. Someone killed my buddy, I shoot them and they alt-F4 out of the game. This is bullshit.

I was thinking 20 seconds. That how long you have to wait to log out of most MMOs. (Yes I know Day Z is not an MMO.) If you move, the counter stops. I don't see how that's not something we can't learn from.

I kill everyone thats not my friends on Vent. I don't care about killing noobs without weapons. I'm talking about players that leave the game after I start shooting at them. It's lame. There should be a 20 second counter before you can log out. And if players Alt-F4 out, there characters should remain in the game for 20 seconds. Then we will have more players ducking for cover or fighting back instead of being lame and logging out like a pussy.

Some military weapons are nice, but are unpractical when it comes to finding ammo for them. I normally run with a 1911 for Zombies and an Enfield for players. Best upgrades are the AK for auto, or the CZ 550 for sniping. Anything fancier then that is to hard to find a reliable source of ammo.

lol My first time spawning into Day Z I will never forget. I popped onto the beach, saw a player, got shot to death. Total time alive... 15 seconds.

We will see.

If you are wrong, I get to play this to you.

Won't play without 3rd person. It's that simple. I will uninstall and never think about this game again. Don't know if its true or not, but that's just how it is. I'm sure I won't be alone either.

My friends that play Day Z with me are discouraged from playing anymore. They are telling me that installing and updating the mod has become to much work. Once the mod is in working order, the next day, and in some cases in the same day, there has been updates. By the time some of them finally get 1.7.1 working and then log out for sleep, the next time they log in, its 1.7.1.1. By the time another friend logs in to play, its 1.7.1.3... no 4. The very next day, I'm patching up to 1.7.1.5 ... I think. And now theres more confusing steps involving the download and modification of Beta files. My friends have told me that they are unwilling to keep up and have decided to stop playing Day Z until things slow down so they can play more and install less. Is there a way to make it easier to keep up and install updates so I can get my friends back into the game?

Why not just disable the map functions you mentioned? I didn't even know they existed. But it should be easier to disable those functions rather then dictate to server hosts what type of game to run. But I do agree with you. Players showing on the map should be disabled. Hopefully Rocket may patch this into the game.
