Don't forget to read the last few words... "Water or not".

Of course it's not working correctly. If you go from "overheating" to hypothermia, EVER, it's not working. Assuming that you get the 'overheating' status, the air temperature isn't close at all to hypothermia, water or not.

How do you tell which server provider is providing a server if it's not listed in the title? I've been trying to google the info for 30 minutes, but I can't find the info. This is an example: 64.31.59.194:2402

How do you determine the server hoster?

Thank you, that's going in my favorites list! -

kavemandayz replied to kavemandayz's topic in General Discussion
What words did you use to find it? I tried just using the IP, I tried tying several of the game SPs and couldn't get that info. -
You need to turn your settings up, then.

Those times when you died and you don't know why
kavemandayz replied to DickCheney's topic in General Discussion
I suppose there's a chance someone spawned in behind you and shot you in the head. -
a random 'punching' while running with no one close enough to hit you? I'd checked a chopper crash, and then ran into the Vybor base. I ran back to the chopper to see if maybe they respawned loot (like buildings occasionally do). Before I got there, I noticed another guy running towards the chopper and made a bee line away from he and the chopper. He shot at me several times, but couldn't hit me due to breathing, but when I made an arch back towards the chopper, I got the punching sound for a solid 10 seconds while I tried running away. This happened the other day, and I'd like to know if anyone else has to see whether or not to escalate reporting of the issue I've brought up. I wasn't recording at the time, either, so I'm simply trying to have a discussion to see if other people have experienced this, or if it was a random bug.

I hope they give us the option to make traps for people, as well. If I'm building a base, I want to be able to defend it even when I'm not there. Bear traps, pits with sharp sticks, maybe... ;)
-
How do we prevent this from happening, though? It's happening to me every other day, now, and I don't know why. I run DayZ straight from steam, and don't touch anything.

In response to characters being reset:
kavemandayz replied to Grimey Rick's topic in General Discussion
I had a buddy immediately rejoin one, and while he was stuck at 'please wait', he canceled. He wasn't reset. I waited about 4 minutes, and my character was reset... crazy stuff. -
So tents will be deleted on every Wednesday maintenance?
kavemandayz replied to qwer4790's topic in General Discussion
hotcakes, what type of server are you on? Is it a private shard, is it a DayZ operated server (NE-12 style name), or is it a server that was bought by yourself or your clan? -
What to do with the edges of the map?
kavemandayz replied to rickyriot's topic in General Discussion
My first thought was "leave it as is, it works. Next, I really liked the impermeable area, idea. BUT, I really like the idea that the edge of the map has huge pits with sharp sticks, bears, and tons of zombies... then if you cross over, you die. -

NO, BEC (Battle Eey Client) said that it will be every Wednesday during maintenance. It wasn't a Reddit message, it was in game on the server I'd placed my tent. -

Is it just DayZ hosted servers that get wiped? -
If you read as much of what the devs say than other places, you'd know that this ALPHA is for releasing content, and releasing TONS of content. They'll fix things that break, but ALPHA is about 'finishing the code base'. The next stage, BETA, is when the 'broken' things in the game get refined, redone, and 'fixed'. They have a simple form of barricading in the game, with lockpicks and locking doors. OBVIOUSLY, it's not the final state, but it's content that is in the game. We'll have vehicles soon, but not the final refined version. We have one of the first iterations of loot cycling and persistence, which isn't complete, yet. When the map is 'complete', when they won't be adding more towns or changing the terrain, they'll be going through the old towns (Cherno, Balota, Kamishovo, Elektro for example) and updating them with newer, more varied houses, and other buildings. One of the biggest undertakings is the new renderer, which they've talked about for months, and have stated that it will take into Q1 2015. When the renderer is in, that's when everything else will really get scrubbed and polished. And the 'separation of church and state' reference is a silly one; that is, unless you can find it in the Constitution :)

Real men don't say things that 'real men' do or do not need. -

kavemandayz replied to qwer4790's topic in General Discussion
My main question is WHY are tents deleted every week during maintenance/cleanup? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of 'persistence'? If it's because of the loot explosions, I can understand that, and hopefully when that's fixed, tents can remain on servers 'persistently'. I'm slightly upset, because I was working and had no idea this was going to happen. I see no point in finding a tent, and only being able to use it for up to 6 days. This next clean-up, I'm working overnight Tuesday, so I won't be able to pick it up. -
The DayZ (or Dean Hall, or Chernarus) diet...

doubled up, sry.

Have you ever worn good military clothing? I don't wear TTSKO stuff, I don't really like it. There should be no bonuses for clothing that in itself is worthless. A t-shirt should suck compared to Gorka jackets. Jeans should resist tearing, but otherwise suck compared to cargo pants, especially military cargo pants. The track suit jacket could be nothing more than a place-holder for some REALLY cool civilian clothing, but let's face it, that's in America, not 'Chernarus'. Maybe Carhartt style jackets with bland colors work really well at not absorbing water, and keeping you warm, but that's about it.

I think we should support Nazis as little as possible. Other than that, old uniforms/camo ideas are cool.

oh, don't let the silly title distract you from losing your fake macho-ism. If you can't even figure out how to fire an AKM 1 shot at a time, you may not be as amazing as you think.

Uh, There Were A LOT Of Zombies Last Night

And not quite Northeast, either :D
