Hello there I believe the issue is that the game always comes down to the lowest common denominator. To create a thing takes real and time/effort/cooperation etc. To destroy a thing is just too easy. So, to repair a car takes ammo/food/meds/time whilst scavenging for the "rare" parts but all this can be destroyed in seconds by one player. OK, perhaps a key part of DAYZ one might argue, but to set up a proper community/township/trading station on a public server would take a heck of alot more work and would be easily scuppered by a couple of griefers because death is no real issue/punishment. For eg So, you get a lock on your store? Fine, I'll blast the door off. I don't care about the building I just want the leet loot. If I die in the process I can just come back and slowly wear down any systems you have in place. Until the mod can effect some kind of way of deterring loutish behaviour it will be the norm in a sandboxy environ. I have little faith in people btw :) Rgds L

FYI one cannot compare someone you have employed to do a task and an external project. IF you had employed the dev team to make DAYZ for YOU then, yes you would deserve a date, even a vague one. IF you had employed a chap to spray your car ditto. In reality you have not employed the dev team. They owe you nothing. I don't mean to sound harsh, it's just a bad comparison. Rgds LoK

Hello there I would love a mechanic to encourage trading but without having safe zones, I dont see how it can be done (not that I have spent any time thinking on it) One thing to remember is that although player driven narrative is cool, it takes hundreds of generations to establish a proper community (from absolute scratch) and I just dont see any long lasting town/kibbutz springing up during the lifetime of Dayz I hope I'm proved wrong.

Hello there I have no issues shooting infected be they adults, children, squirrels, kittens etc. I'll feel bad for doing it. But I have enough common sense to know that it's a game and not part of the real world. Also, it's the context. Any kids/kittens in game would be a vestige of their former selves and out for ones blood. TBH I feel more "guilty" shooting rabbits in game than the infected. Rgds LoK

Hello there In some respects you are correct. Rocket is not a god or godlike figure and the dev team do need to hear feedback that is not always fun to hear. But I still fail to your utter need to have a deadline date. Did not other well respected companies say the terms "when it's done" or "soon"? They're still doing well afaik. It would be nice to have a definitive date, but I'm afraid I fall into the "I'd rather have it when it's ready" camp. Rgds LoK

CD Key got stolen. Marked for global ban #e44e95
OrLoK replied to UnseenSniper's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Hello there The point being, we cannot really fully help you as we don't have access to your PC. We can only guesstimate your problems. If you have lost 2 keys, then there most likely is something on your PC stealing them (but we cannot be 100pc certain). One way to be fairly sure is to Completely wipe your drives and reinstall windows and all your legitimate games etc. Not an easy task I know. Rdgs 'LoK -
mZLY, I may have to give you a talking to Even my fellow mods hate me. I like the idea of graves+humanity. But think that any useable loot in the DAYZ universe would not be buried with the dead. Stuff would be just too valuable. L

CD Key got stolen. Marked for global ban #e44e95
OrLoK replied to UnseenSniper's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
Hello there It sounds like you still have a key stealer somewhere on your machine still. Time for a major wipe and os install, methinks. L -
I get this. I'd avoid until sorted. Notify the admin perhaps. Are there ads on his page? They can cause issues sometimes. L

What would you loot? A possibly diseased corpse? You kinky thing!

If you think using the island 12km off the shore as a base is a good idea.

Hello there IMPORTANT!: only download programs from reputable sources, preferably their home page. Rgds LoK

Hello there Here's a legitimate question on the SA. Will the infected become out of breath as players do, one would think as they are infected that they would be generally unhealthy? Rgds LoK

I like their equipment and armoury tool.

It looks like the view distances are different in the comparision pic... or have they been improved for the SA?

Hello there Sorry for being vague, my brain is small and I had other things going on here in the grid. Yes, the more complex switch time will render the 3rd person useless in may situations where it was "exploited". It doesnt eliminate it being used but cuts down on its ease of use drastically. Again, apologies. Rgds LoK

They have already tackled that issue with a simple yet cunning ploy, so it's now not half as useful. L

Hello there There is no hack/exploit issue. Many admins set the max file size to 0kbs which results in not being able to use your custom face. It's simpler to choose from the set list of faces/voices. At any distance it's hard to make out facial details regardless, so isn't really worth it IMHO. Rgds LoK
