Well, the reason I am suggesting this here is purely because so far in just 3 short sessions I have enjoyed this mod for Arma II more than any other AAA release in the last year or so and I really want it to carry on and get bigger. I am not wanting special outfits or credits in the game for donaters, just a chance to donate some cash to help you guys get more servers, more dev time etc etc ... as so far this mod has totally blown me away. The community have been amazingly helpful from minute 1 for me - Stuart is my in game name - and every question, no matter how newbish, I have asked has been answered both promptly and politely, even by one guy who was talking gibberish for a laugh stopped to answer a serious question I put up. The only thing I do not want to see is a mass influx of gankers and trolls just joining to bandit up and pk everyone, but that is really impossible to control anyway and over time they end up leaving for the next big thing anyway. So if you guys would give a Paypal account or similar I would more than happily donate some cash to this mod to help it along. Cheers for the awesome fun :)

FAO: rocket - Kicked by Isomery from the EU17 server for killing him...
robertstuartmarshall replied to Mycaelis's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
As far as I can tell, this is a mod in alpha state and whilst we should not be getting attached to our characters or worried about losing items, people still need to report incidents such as this whenever they happen. It is easy to sit and type "Whoa you got no proof" but having been a victim of unexpected kicking in the past, it is impossible to foresee yourself getting booted and readying yourself to run FRAPs or take screenies etc. That said, there will always be innocent people getting reported by possibly butthurt players and making up "I was kicked for being too awesome" stories, but I still think it is important to let the team know that there are abusers out there. -
THIS MUST BE ADDED IMMEDIATELY
robertstuartmarshall replied to nix9862's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
No to bears, but a big, dirty, fat yes to Farmer's daughters. They have a 10% to spawn in barns and a 4% next to outdoors hay bales. -
The guy asked a question relating to the latest patch. Yes, he could have added to the older thread but you have taken this forum policing too far regarding this matter. Posting multiple times arguing how he should have used search is just nitpicking now, especially after he argued his side about times. Let it go, ffs.

Aw, I came in here thinking someone was doing a tribute to the great Queen song, Flash. I am now sad.

Blocking off buildings with barbed wire
robertstuartmarshall replied to mrcheapy's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It doesn't keep them out? I've never even noticed this Brick walls have no effect on zombies, did you really think flimsy wire would? THEY ARE IMMUNE TO EVERYTHING!! - oh, except bullets and drops. -
Forum Moderators Wanted!
robertstuartmarshall replied to griffinz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Well, I am over 21 - sadly, by some way - and am active on the forums. I am classed as UK, but tbh I am a very late night person and usually get online after work at about 11pm - 4am. As long as there are clear guidelines to follow to learn the ropes, I would happily offer my services for a short time if needed. -
Patch + Servers = Starving
robertstuartmarshall replied to f4cksteam's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, annoying, but it's an alpha and you really are not meant to get too attached to a character :) -
Wilford Brimley
robertstuartmarshall replied to Slippery Pete (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Or, even better, for true realism, when you go on a killing spree you get a huge "C-C-C-COMBOOOOOO!" on the screen and go into Rage Mode. Here, you get shouted awards like "Mu-mu-mu-mu-multi kill." I get that voice in my head when I go on random killing sprees in my hometown, so let's implement it asap. -
Ok, I see what you mean now. The only thing I can say though is that sometimes the innocent will get caught up in the punishment, but if that is what it takes to deter dcs from asshats who don't want to die after initiating gunfights then I will happily take the occasional punishment myself.
-
^ Hang on, I Wub Pugs, are you saying that if someone takes a pot shot at you, you disconnect? That is how that reads to me, and if that is what you do then you deserve a 15-120 sec "linger" to punish you, imho.
-
lolol "Omg we are so damn busy with so many important things to do how DARE you suggest we have to wait 15 mins to join another server." If rocket goes with that, I would back it 100% .. just like if he decides to introduce a 30 second timer to put you into sleep mode. If it stops exploiters in any way, I will back it, even if it does mean 1 lose 15 minutes of my favourite game. Please stop feeling so entitled.
-
Right, cheers iHax and Derbysieger .. some good advice that I will look into. My 2 main pcs have an i5 and an i7 atm so should be able to sort something out.
-
Hmm, okso it's more a matter of just changing the settings. I sort of gave up after the TW series a year or so ago when I realised that a lot of times the replay I was watching was not all my own battle but a lot of weird generic stuff. Cannot remember the full story but a few people said they had similar issues.

HOLY SH*T ZOMBIES CLIMB LADDERS
robertstuartmarshall replied to curiousepic's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah, I finally decided to go to an airfield for the first time, got a little bit trigger happy and shot down some officer looking zombie .. then legged it up the ladder of the building next door. Trapped at the top by ladder climbing zeds and the rest that came up the stairs. Woe was me. -
I have one absolutely top of the range gaming laptop and a pretty sweet desktop, both great at running games and both kept super clean. No matter what game I play, be it the latest AAA top of the world graphics blockbuster or a 10 year old RPG with minimal gfx, FRAPs drops the fps by at least 10-20. No idea why, but I have heard that there are many better programs than FRAPs out there that run a lot better.
-
lol nice vid. What do people use to record so smoothly? I used to use FRAPs but got sick of the massive slowdown during filming. Recently, I was playing with a newb friend somewhere on the east coast when he aggro'd a pack of zombies and ran in circles wondering what to do. I managed to type "When i run past follow me and keep up" and legged it past him. I remembered a town a bit further north that has some small sheer cliff faces just to the south of it and thought "what the hell" We made it all the way up there and by now we were managing to to grab a few split seconds to type here and there as the zeds had lost some ground in the bushy areas, and as we neared the cliff I jokingly typed "Rem: press space to jump" before we both just limply fell off the edge. Both of us had instant leg breaks and insta proned, followed in the next ten seconds or so by about 30 hostile zeds all just falling to their doom around us. Fits of laughter followed by the realisation that the daft bugger had dropped his morphine for ammo some time ago without asking. Don't worry, I did the decent thing. I shot him to pieces.

An open letter to the silent majority
robertstuartmarshall replied to Satire (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
As it is in alpha, it is very important for bugs, glitches and other issues to be reported in the proper way so that Rocket can see if there are many instances of that problem, etc. But like the op, I am getting so sick of people demanding this new feature, or even being so cheeky as to say "This mod cannot survive without ..." as if they exclusively know what makes a game great. My main aim now on this forum is to place "-1" in every dumb suggestion thread and to report bugs in the proper section so as to help out. Yes, we know, some games NEED more features to survive .. I mean, look at TF2. How the hell could it survive so long if it didn't have so many FREE HATS!!!! Or Counter Strike ... oh, hang on. Both those mods do extremely well staying true and simple. From now on, if you do think of something SUPERSAIYANUBERAWESOME for this mod .. stop! Think it over for a few more hours and truthfully answer "will this benefit the whole community or do I just want it for me?" If no, don't post it. If yes, don't post it either. Let rocket choose his own path. -
Newbies, please put things in perspective...
robertstuartmarshall replied to griffinz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
After over 10 attempts over the years to finish Basic Training in the boot camp of Arma 2, I have given up. There is always one thing that either bugs out or just doesn't happen. The latest one was the officer telling me to Javelin the furthest wooden target when the game decided to not spawn any Javelin ammo. Oh, the joy. :) -
Rocket, please read.
robertstuartmarshall replied to WildGunsTomcat's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You need to stop with the insulting using terms like retarded, Tomcat. Do NOT use the childish, "Well, they started it ... " here. Did you not see the post from one of your own guys saying that your Minecraft server is also not running, so maybe, just maybe, this has got sod all to do with Rocket and YOU should have done your homework before posting here. I do not like all the vitriol directed at you in this thread, but if you retort with insults like retarded you are gonna quickly lose that sympathy I have for you. Go look at your box itself if other servers are also not running. -
NY7 Admins/FAS clan members spawning items/abusing time
robertstuartmarshall replied to Addest's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
I hate to say it, but whilst it is important to stop the rot that tends to infect games like this, I think it is about time people stopped just making thread after thread about it UNLESS they have proof - ie, vids, screenies. If you do not have proof, tag your post onto an already existing thread about abusers as there are many out there. -
Rocket/missle attack in cherno?
robertstuartmarshall replied to Puppy (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If I had to guess, I would say an angry admin had been sniped by a camper in Cherno and was taking revenge with an arty strike. :) -
Seems like no vehicles spawning on my servers
robertstuartmarshall replied to DJKhaled's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
I would like to ask people who have found vehicles to give some rough areas to look for them just because so far in all my hours, I have found one boat and one helicopter. I have searched most small towns as well as Cherno and Electro and around them in the fields, too. So please list possible spawn locations where there could be some spawning as I am now curious if I just keep joining weird servers with minute spawn chances. -
Feature Wishlits
robertstuartmarshall replied to Garydos (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I am very set against both horses and dogs in this mod for many reasons, but I think it would be great to see a bicycle here and there. Imagine the joy of seeing some pedal by like a lunatic with 20 zombies warping after him. Yeah, +1 to bicycles for me. As to any other wish, no new additions for me just for rocket to carry on with what he is doing and making sure that the Beta has a lot of the known bugs and issues fixed. -
The Tale of the Naughty Bandit and his punishment
robertstuartmarshall replied to SDE Bellisarius's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Sort of reminds me of when Dead Island first shipped with all those massive bugs and when you went into third person view your character was basically a wibbly wobbly mess. I think the 3p in Deus Ex:HR was screwed up like that too, with deformed characters.
