My Dayzcommander updated about an hour ago and since then I cant seem to join any server at all....anybody else having any issues?

I'm concerned right now about the state of Dayz Mod, it seems with this latest DayzCommander update about 90% of the people I play with cant connect to servers, and the servers they can connect to are all dead. I myself booted up dayzcommander this morning to look at my favorites which were all just showing as IP's and not the server names...I know DayzCommander is having issues but asking admins to update their servers and people to switch to new launchers on a game this old may just have killed it...from what I'm reading more and more server subs are being cancelled on a daily basis. Is there any way back from this mess?

Dayzlauncher is ridden with just as many bugs as DZC right now....it doesnt detect half of the mods I have installed and it frequently crashes.

Yeah the issue is, is that now Dayzcommander is annoying forcing us to play on 125548 when still most servers are on 112555...its pretty much the admins of the servers who are to blame here who are too lazy to update their servers.

I managed to fix mine by verifying Arma 2 and Arma 2:OA again, then installing the latest patch and then refreshing the servers all over again in Dayz Commander...what a pain, I'm not sure what they have changed but its causing a lot of issues after looking on their facebook page.

They will possibly add elements of , panthera and namalsk into chenarus

I think the point you made on zombies would be great, I've always wanted zombie hordes in the game and by hordes I mean huge ammounts of them. It would be great for players to defend off a zombie horde attack on a city where hundreds of zombies (left 4 dead style) are rushing at the players, that could lead to some epic and hilarious gaming moments on a server. I've also said in previous posts I've made that I'd like to see some more iconic "one off" buildings in the game that have significance and would draw players and zombies in. Ideas I've came up with we're a theme park, prison, ww2 underground missile silo or down near the coast perhaps a submarine base also underground, shopping mall, huge hospital complex, mental asylum. I'd also like to see some mountain regions up in the north with snowy peaks. Oh and lastly I'd love to see more Easter eggs in the game, think a dayz version of slender man built into the folk lore of the game, I'd love for the game to have a slight survival horror edge to it like amnesia...almost as in a side game, think how cool a creepy old mansion up in the hills may be that has haunted folk lore up there.

The issue is that the initial novelty of the game has worn off and people are now starting to ask a lot of questions about where the development of the game is heading, I mean if you look at it all on paper it doesn't look too promising. Sure you will get all the fanboys giving you the same brainless comments that you already mentioned "omg its alpha!" "go play something else" etc. but the fact remains that the development has been very slowand it's difficult to see any light at the end of the tunnel when you combine that with the issue of the lead developer leaving the project at the end of the year. To make all this worse, if you think things are bad now...wait till H1Z1 gets released on early access in a few weeks.

Ok im a little lost on this one and I hoped maybe people could help me understand the logic on what the developers are thinking with spending their time on making more new towns in the game. When I currently look at the map I see LOTS of towns already, where is the need for adding more of them? I could perhaps understand adding another large capital city somewhere in the north part of the map but just more run of the mill towns with run of the mill buildings all acting as nothing more than loot spawn locations seems like total nonsense to me even in the grander scheme of things. I've seen some great ideas in terms of new areas to be developed which fit in the current theme of things such as an abandoned prison, larger hospital complex, abandoned theme park, underground complex such as an abandoned nuclear silo or an abandoned mall of some kind...I mean the options are endless in terms of would could be added and they would make great locations on the map to drag people into other areas outside the coast. So where is the thinking from the dev team here? I know they rarely give answers directly to these questions so what is the community view?

I agree with the OP, I gave up my server after getting warnings for kicking people off the server which was frustrating simply because currently there is no way to identify who is the hacker so you have to kick everybody. My advice is right now don't pay for your own server, they are stupidly over priced right now anyway.

Nobody said that?

Cant wait to see the video, we enjoyed it very much

lol sorry we spoiled your book club evening, kind regards from the [MOD] clan :D

went down to this, nobody was here server was dead

This will turn into a bloodbath

Berezino is huge fun right now for pvp if you ask me, my squad have had some great shoot outs there the last few days

This

There is a flip side to this, as an admin on our clan server it is also my responsibility to kick people that are hacking or cheating, the annoying thing as an admin is I can't judge who the person is cheating as people don't have tags so I end up having to kick everybody off the server...it doesn't happen a lot but it happens. A

checked the tents on 4 different severs just right now in the NWAF, didnt find a thing in any of them...

Ballistic vests don't spawn anymore, I'm sure there was some sort of error with them so they got disabled

Are dupers really bothering you that much? It's not like those using the teleport hack to grief and kill others..it's just people duping gear so they don't have to go through the timely process of re-gearing. I don't endorse duping but I can see why people do it and it doesn't really bother me.

Military barracks and prisons

has it finished? :(

I was just hoping to maybe trade some stuff, but its gonna be difficult to do so if you aint announcing where survivors can actually meet people

What server though?
