Hello there Perhaps this isn't the alpha test for you? Rgds LoK

What's up with people naming themselves "admin"?
OrLoK replied to chris p. bacon's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
hello there It's not, in most cases, by their choice. By default A2 uses their PC's account name, which on many PC's is "admin". Usually, it's because the player is new and hasn't made a proper profile yet. Rgds LoK -
Got global banned, how do I contact battleye
OrLoK replied to Hareu17's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
hello there, Even if there are false positives and you believe you are the subject of one then contact Battleye Support. We know they will, and do, reverse unjust bans. There's no point saying "BE don't care". It's their business model to "care". If their software does not function properly they wont get any companies to use their tools. Mistakes happen, as is evident. That's why the have the support email. Use it and have patience. Rgds LoK -
My video tutorial showing how to install custom skins
OrLoK replied to TaintedCatalyst's topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Hello there It's not "illegal" and is legit as it only affects the players own skin and no one elses. Also be aware many servers don't allow custom skins, its best to use one of the many available ones in your profile settings. Rgds LoK -
I was banned on my Private Dayz Server
OrLoK replied to HamsterGames's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Hello all Let this be a warning to those that script to cheat and also to those setting up their own servers with little or no knowledge. Rgds LoK -

is it worth buying arma 2 combined operations now
OrLoK replied to iReJambo's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there IMHO yes. I bought it before release in UK and played it in Czech for a few weeks until it was released over here. I still play it today. Worth the pennies IMHO. Perhaps try A2Free to see if it suits your playstyle. Rgds LoK Being able to play DAYZ on CO is just a bonus. -
Day Z bugs are going to lead me to quiting Day Z!
OrLoK replied to Tyler_Sharp's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Hello there You probably will not get much sympathy here as the game is indeed in Alpha. Most games in this stage are not released to the public, so think yourself lucky in that respect. If the game is too rough around the edges for you to play, then your best bet is to find something else more polished to play until the final release. There was/is no guarantee that the mod will work on any level so getting no response from the devs or the members of the forum is common. I have a few posts here, it doesnt mean a thing. Just remember we are here to test and give constructive feedback. Anything else we get out of the game/forums is a Brucey Bonus. Rgds LoK -
Hello there Arma will only use 2048 (2gig) of RAM maximum. More is nice for windows etc but Arma will not touch it. Rgds LoK

Hello there I too would like to be able to circumvent this. But, for the moment the best thing to do is just take dayz out of your command line and boot up vanilla. rgds LoK

Server without hackers = impossible to find
OrLoK replied to Nouchine's topic in New Player Discussion
Hello there @everyone, just because you don't/havn't seen a scripter (let's get the terminology correct) it does not mean that they are not on your server. Secondly, high population servers are a major target as well as servers that are easy to get into (ie not running mods like lingor (not that they are immune)) Also, make sure you visit only BE enabled servers (setting in your server browser) You won't eliminate the possibility of bumping into one but this lessens the chance. rgds LoK -
Story of a 30 year old kid and his new Dayz server!
OrLoK replied to TrainwreckUS2114's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Hello there I think their replies were fine and if anything very tolerant. You were advised as to what to do, you continued to open tickets to an issue that's known by the community, so presumeably by the devs. Patience is key. Frustrating to you, though it may be, sometimes things just don't run to plan/timescales. I hope your issue is sorted soon. Rgds LoK -
Hello there I say keep it down to a server choice. There are so many games I do not buy due to being 3rd person only. It baffles me when they don't give the user the choice to go into first person. In short, even though i loathe it personally, people should be allowed 3rd person in server settings. Same with tgt Blobs, crosshairs, grass etc. freedom to choose is key. Rgds LoK

Mobile guillotine. May be a few mistakes if it's hooked up to BE, but oh, well. Rgds LoK

My problem with Dayz(INFORMAL so fuck how you feel)
OrLoK replied to Mountain Dew's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
(INFORMAL so fuck how you feel) Hello there With a heading like that, I was already disposed to think that you yourself are not particularly nice. I somewhat agree with your thoughts (perhaps split the text up as it's a wall 'o text at the moment) but the way you put them across is not great. For eg i dont give a fuck if this mod is a alpha . Again you come across egotistical and open yourself to alot of abuse. IMHO phrase yourself better and you'll avoid posts like the ones above. You have assisted in bringing it on your self a bit i'm afraid. Rgds LoK -
Makeshift Supressors (With 100% more believability!)
OrLoK replied to JD_274's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Hello, Also AFAIK most of the weapon platforms in the video are .22 and so are not that loud to begin with (comparatively) From what I remember they do use one pistol of a higher calibre and it's still damn noisy even though it is suppressed somewhat. Also, remember suppressors wear out over time, so their capability is diminished with use. The econo can is fine and fits the Dayz ethos (if one can find the connectors and if you have a threaded barrel) but all the "silenced" weapons need to be far louder IMHO. rgds LoK -
Hello there It's a DAYZ bug. Don't insult my beautiful Arma. rgds LoK
-
sorry? what? I wasn't paying attention.
-
Firstly, no. Secondly, there were many like me until the mechanics altered and turned the game into a PvP fest. They are fun to kill due to the numbers and the scarcity of ammo. Thirdly, why must I be new? And even if I was, why on earth would that matter? If one wants pure PvP with permadeath, Play on Toxic's Wasteland servers. It's essentially DAYZ without zeds. Just because you think a certain way that doesn't make others opinions invalid. rgds LoK

Hello there Sorry to bring up this old post, but it's wrong, so wrong. You may not like PvE, that doesn't mean other people don't enjoy it. I often mess around in DAYZ SP, with my favourite mods for a fun SP experience. What motivates you may not motivate others. (and vice versa). rgds LoK

Enjoy your ban. If you script, you're not wanted. Rgds LoK
-
Hello there No, not really. Rgds LoK

Hello there You bought Arma2, far less script kiddies there. DAYZ was a free alpha mod. If you have a way of adding a new anti-cheat program that supports the game and combats all the issues, please let the devs know by all means. Everyone is aware of the current issues. Also, play on low pop servers, far less opportunity to be scripted there. Lastly, using the repetitive word "shit" makes your post not look as mature as it could be. Rgds LoK
-
Hello there As these items already exist either in game or in mod form the dev's are already aware of them. If they're vanilla then there's a reason they have been taken out. Scripters spawning them in to an active DAYZ server is not leet or cool. rgds LoK

Hello there The map, while large is easily traversable on foot. Plus, whilst on foot you wont miss as many loot opportunities as you do in a car, as you are usually "road locked". Helo crash sites are good for loot but can be zombie heavy. Never go afk unless well hidden and away from popular areas like Elektro. A lot of patience is needed with this game. rgds LoK
