Its the same with all servers. All you need to do is keep hitting the refresh button. As long as the time stays at X:00 don't log in. When it hits X:01 it is safe. But in your case give it a couple of extra minutes after that just to be sure lol Oh McTabish bet me too it.

Are you waiting, till the server says at least one minute past? This seriously hasn't happen to any of the 15 guys I play with in months.

Stop playing low pop servers. They are low pop for a reason.

It's my first thought.

Every Wednesday night mate. In Australia it usually kicks in around 4 or 5 which would be about 6 or 7 for you depeding on DLS and can last anywhere from a couple of hours to all night.

All compass's are bugged at the moment but they can still be read reasonably accurately. North is point approximately east so west on the compass is northish.

Lets us know how you go mate.

I have no problem skinning animals whatsoever. If you are having difficulty try doing it in the sanding position

All explained here...

Because this is exactly what makes DayZ special. Take that away and you just have another a FPS. You should try Arma 3 it is great for the casual fling.

I think too much realism can kill a game.

People like that give us Bandits a bad name. What a cowardly act, I would never "trick" you into a false sense of security and then shoot when you are most vulnerable. That is the epitome of easy street. Whoever that was, was a basic bitch!

So last night 7 of us decided to do a little spur of the moment "Survival Gamez" situation with our Public characters. We used izurvive map to set up a zone of play and split into 3 groups of two. The odd man out was the target that we had to assassinate. We played on a low pop server (there were 3 or 4 other players) as to not get innocents involved. We were all in position and divided the TS into 4 channels and each team was wearing a different coloured arm band, my team wore pink while the other two teams wore blue and yellow, so we could tell if any outsiders got mixed up in the fire fight. We set off coming from the south western lumber yard and immediately hear gun shots coming from the military compound area, about 300-400 meter from us. First Mosin and then AK. We think holy shit that was stupidly quick. What we didn't realise at the time was that another 2 random players both wearing blue armbands came across one of our teams... WHO WERE ALSO WEARING BLUE ARMBANDS. They freaked out for a bit not knowing who was who but in the end managed to neutralise the randoms whom fired upon them first. We start moving in from a westerly direction and more gun shots ring out. At this stage we have no idea who is alive and who is dead but we keep pushing forward. The only way through to the main street is an arch way. Squad leader (with sks and PU) pokes out to look south down the road as I guard the rear, I turn to look at him and he then scouts north before quickly turning back to the south. Just at the moment I see movement across the street, one player has just exited from a building not more than 20 mtrs from us. I yell out "player" but unable to fire as the SL is directly in the line of fire. I yell "player" a second time and SL pulls back into the archway. I have the choice to fight or flee however I would rather die in a flame of glory than die cowardly from a bullet to my back. I steady my aim and prepare for the oncoming attack which happens just as quickly as expected. He doesn't peak, he comes at me at full force and I unload... As he runs across my sight from left to right, I dump five rounds into him and then I pause. He fires a flurry at me and hitting every shot precisely on target. I try to move into a better position unfortunately I am left with only one option now and I dump the rest of my mag into him. His body curls over and he drops like a sack of potato's but I did not fare much better. I fall unconscious then death swiftly follows. My SL confirms my kill of yellow1 but yellow2 is still at large. Again and aggressively yellow2 engages, they trade just like their team mates had done only moments earlier. My team mate breaks both the legs of y2, ruins his gear and even makes him fall unconscious but at alas the wounds from the exchange were too great and my team mate joins me in the long sleep, not more than 5 metres away from my now lifeless body. Yellow2 ends up taking his team to victory after killing blue1 and the assassination target. Blue2 was unable to play on due to connection issues. All in all, this last about 15 minutes and was damn fun! Even though we came third, it was brilliant and I highly recommend anyone else that has a big group try something similar too this. It literally took us about 3 minutes to plan and the most time consuming part was just getting to the destination. We just fought with whatever equipment we had the time. I think we will make this a weekly thing but in the future I would change the location to somewhere with better frames as we were all suffering significantly.

Or get a track IR! IMO the only way to play, I couldn't go back.

Yup love it. Maybe even to expand on that, they spawn with a CB radio but it can removed and as long as you have a car battery you could make it work. Would be nice to set one up in your base.

First tip... don't play without a mic lol. and if you do, stay away from people.

No worries man. If you still struggling just quote me in this thread and I can give you a better idea, especially when I am home. EDIT: Actually I totally forgot about this... http://www.gametracker.com/search/dayz/AU/?&sort=c_numplayers&order=DESC

Why would we want to make this game easier? I don't think many people would die often in the first 30 seconds.

Go into your filter at the bottom of the server list and type in ping of 150. Popular Australian ones are Pipsi, HIHB and numerous others. They just the ones I can think of right now.

I'll just leave this here... http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=a4c_1424034937

As above but get off the beaten track. Your hitting all the major towns, everyone wants burlaps, so you have to go the towns less visited. I found 7 tonight in about an hour and half on full 50 pop server.

The frying pan is glitched at the moment but only with fish from what I have been told. I am trying to test this myself but for the love of god I cannot find a fry pan. The pot is fine to cook with as long as you follow my guide.

All good mate hope it helps, if there is anything you are unsure of just ask and subscribe if you like as there will be heaps more in the following patches. Just ignore people like that, they definitely have a mental problem.
