Reloading

Launch arma2 from your steam account to overwrite your friends cd-key in registry.

Yes, now you're just competing with the other 5000 people who also had this original idea and headed straight for barracks.

It's not off the map. It's just off most out of game maps. Press M.

Not liking the sound of bear traps. Its bad enough with barbed wire everywhere at the moment. You're going to need to carry 10 morphine around with you once somebody spawns a box of beartraps.

Done it before, don't think its exploiting. The only areas worth the effort of doing it are pretty risky and you're very exposed when picking up and dumping the loot. Some places you have to back off up to 100m for the loot to respawn. Some places seem to be based on a timed spawn and you can just sit there. Pain in the ass moving multiple weapons around though.

Date/Time: 27/06/2012 6:50pm GMT+10 What happened: Logged into server Dallas 53, heard crunch and saw killed message while still on loading screen. First thing I see after black loading screen is death screen. It then auto respawned me in wilderness with nothing but alice pack and a few items in it. Note, it did not ask me to choose character sex again like it would if you had died normally and respawned. Where you were: In crane cabin at Berenzino. What you were doing: Logging in. Current installed version: v1.7.1.5 94103. First login since beta update. Server(s) you were on: Dallas 53 Timeline of events before/after error: Was trying to login to ANZ servers for some night time looting however they are all incorrectly named in regards to timezone. UTC +10 servers were 2pm instead of 6pm. UTC +2 servers were light too.

Now give them a pack, shovel, axe, sidearm, tent, grenades, 8 magazines, and medical supplies. Watch them drown or ditch that shit in a panic to stay alive.

The thing is arma 2 copies its cd-key to registry. In steam when you launch arma 2 it will copy it then run. Switch to a different steam account and it will write the new cd-key in and run. So it is possible to do it like that. I'd like to know if the cd-key is checked at launch or periodically while you're playing. You could launch one copy with its cd-key, then the other copy overwrites that cd-key when you launch it. Wondering if the first one will be kicked.

What's the difference between running around on a pve server farming loot and crash sites or having a clan only server and doing the same thing? If this server is allowed to continue to operate as it currently is then all servers that have been blacklisted for having passwords , low number of slots or kicking people for clannies should be reinstated and reimbursed.

If they're allowed to host a server just for pve why can't I host a server just for my clan. Either the same set of rules are applied evenly or you allow admins to make their own rules per server.

I found a few camps last night. One with an atv, another with 2 tractors and a gaz. Took the atv for a spin off road. I don't know if it's something to do with lag as I was playing at 250 ping but I could get off and run just as fast. Rather do without the noise and cloud of dust it leaves behind. Ditched it after 1km and shot it up.

Ssshhh. Mildots represent fixed ranges in all scenarios. I feel a little bit safer now.

People rent their own dayz server then get pissed off at not being able to make it private or reserve slots. Make server name reflect older version, people looking for a server to join skip past it or like me don't even see it because of filter. Enjoy your own private server. Arma2 server listing is pretty flawed. No version info, no favorites, automatically refreshes and resets sort by every time you leave a server.

Have you ever actually been hunting? You don't stalk your prey or close on it by crawling around on your stomach to minimise sound and sight. You're carefully crouch walking, checking the placement of each step, brushing aside any twigs or dry leaves before you put your foot down. Using cat steps and placing your foot down carefully from heel to toe while maintaining even weight distribution. In fact crawling is much worse as you're dragging your whole body along the ground, snagging twigs, rustling leaves. It has it's place in making effective use of small cover, but you sure as hell wouldn't be crawling through a town and maximizing your exposure time when you could move more quietly and quickly crouched.
