Oh god! We should probably spawn with M4's as well huh? Maybe stop server hoping and play the game like it is intended. WARNING: (For new players) Make sure the vehicle is completely stopped before getting into it. Also it is highly recommended you don't try to get into passenger side when the vehicle is on slopes.

OP, while I somewhat understand your frustration, I do have a concern with your method of fixing it. I have to have my FOV set quite far out, over half way in fact and I have to because I get chronic motion sickness, if it is set any lower. Now a person who can handle a much narrow FOV is going to have a huge advantage over me especially if he can have at the narrowest setting. You say that someone who has set to this lowest level has the disadvantage of peripheral vision but this easily compensated with a track IR or well setup mice (eg Numpad 1 and 3 set to mouse buttons). So in summary, come up with a better way to fix the problem and I will agree until then I can't. Also I think 3PP peaking (or the fact that there is even a 3PP is more of an issue than this). You leave yourself very vulnerable when changing your FOV. Final thought: How does this even really effect you? I mean in my 6-700 hours of game play I have never thought once, "OH FFS, I wouldn't have died if it wasn't for his FOV changing". Out of all the things to gripe about in DayZ, I do find it interesting you picked on this one. Your other two points while valid have been discussed to death so I will refrain from repeating myself and others again. GL and see you at the VMC!

Also try to restrict yourself drinking from streams. Only do it if you absolutely must, drink form wells so you don't get your clothes wet.

We are all wrong at some stage dude! Don't worry about it, especially when the game is constantly changing, it's hard to keep up. Just found 12 heli's sites over the weekend between myself and two other buddies and not one single M4. Found every single attachment for it including a 60 clip but alas no M4 :(

I think people find it is easier to whine than do the hard yards and analysis what they are doing wrong and amend their behaviour. The amount of people that complain about KoS'ers but then continually run into towns without looking etc is astounding. A person posted a comment a while back about how he got killed KoS'ed three times in a row and in his story every time he was killed while on top of a building in Cherno. "I don't know, here's a thought, maybe don't climb on top of buildings in cherno?" Now OT: The game should be hard! It should be a struggle to stay alive, especially if you are a lone wolf. What it most certainly shouldn't do is make it impossible for lone wolfs and the "buff" of teaming up should be moderate. At the end of the day, the goal is survival so that shouldn't be easy to achieve.

You guys are just so damn cute! What are you going to do when you realise you are either wrong or sometimes it isn't good getting what you wished for? a) You are right! People will leave the game in droves. Most people get their kicks from PvP the thrill, the suspense of PvP. Not some retarded AI zom. Even if the AI was the most sophisticated programme known to man, it means nothing to being engaged in a battle with real people. There are thousands of single player zombie games that I can play to fix that itch. So how exciting is that, playing with 3 people on a server? You can do that now. b) You are wrong! While we are having fun PvP'ing you will be on here whining and crying stating this game is about survival! LOL! It's not, it never has been and if the Dev's want people to continue to play this, it will always be about PvP. You are the vocal minority! The PvP aspect is what made this game!

Sorry Halp you are wrong... to a certain degree. So what happens is that the heli's spawn after Wednesday server maintenance. but with every restart of the server after that, they become invisible. They loot still spawns though. As soon as we disabled persistence on our server it fixed the problem.

Be careful what you wish for!

TENT HUNTERS Welcome Is a 30 pop 1PP aimed at all play styles and hosted on its own Private Master Hive So why is this good? A Private Master Hive means all the loot stays on the server. If you get killed or your loot is stolen you have a chance to get it back. No more server hoppers running off with your equipment or using other servers to gain a tactical advantage and flank behind you. 1PP is more intense and requires a higher sense of awareness. For me there is really no comparison. Someone standing against a wall and watching you run toward them across a field just doesn't seem right. 30 pop keeps the server lag down to a minimum until the DayZ devs can optimise the server to client architecture. It means loot will be more plentiful. Persistence Disabled Hackers - Battle Eye is enabled so GUID bans are possible. Admins currently don't have a log file to give certainty to who is hacking / cheating, however it will be not tolerated and we will do our utmost to ensure fair play for all In the unfortunate situation that they do appear, I am prepared to password the server and even apply for whitelisting if necessary. Maintenance - To help protect against character wipes we plan to take a 'snapshot' of the server before Bohemia's weekly maintenance, with the intent that we can roll back to a previous image if possible. Admin - We have 5 active admin who I have come to know as some of the fairest playing guys I have had the pleasure of playing with, no glitching when everybody else was, certainly no hacking history and never looking to take the easy route. Fun - Server Admins will be randomly leaving loot around the server then announcing the map co-ordinates over global or twitter. PSO scopes, AUG's, HiCap vests, tents - anyone can have a shot at some awesome loot. We really want to encourage all players whether in teams or as lone wolf's. For this we plan on coming up with some innovative ideas to balance the playing field. We will not be rolling round in a team of 15 slaughtering everything we see, that is just no fun. Do you roll with a team? Stake a claim TODAY! and be Crowned King of the Hill Server Messages warning you when the server is going to restart.

As of today TENTHUNTERS are the ONLY truly private 1PP server in Australia. Your loot stays on our server & no other shards 2 run & hide 2

What happens when you go into menu, inventory and when you press escape? Does the cursor appear and is movable?

Really enjoying the build. Having a few issues with disappearing loot. Had a AKS-74U in my back pack and went to paint it and the mag disappeared from it. Also a range of other disappearing instances where things would just not be there any more after log ins in putting something on the ground.

Shadowplay causes no FPS drops however it is limited in its's audio, so you have to take that into consideration. Fraps - I wouldn't touch again huge FPS drop, worst out of all of them Shadowplay - Great but must have nvidia card and can only record 1 audio track, Your voip, TS3 (skype, mumble) and the in game sounds are recorded as one stream which makes editing people out harder FREE OBS - Haven't tried it myself but hear good things, Definite FPS drop but good quality MSI Afterburner - Used to love this, great quality, 2 audio tracks but something has changed, not sure if me or something since the update but audio has gone bad. FPS Drop varies but 95% no issue FREE DX Tory - Nice program easy to use, Ok quality. Best thing is the amount of audio tracks you can set up. Definite FPS drop. Hope that helps

Numbers are growing welcome to all, hope you enjoy your stay. NOTE: Persistence will be turned off today on weekly maintenance so make sure you grab all your gear. It is not working correctly and will be turned off until the dev's can sort the issue.

DayZ is a training ground for the coming apocalypse, so it isn't really wasting time at all.

I don't think these are issues at all. The three things you mentioned, should be exactly how it is. In fact I think they are too easy. My only problem is they are still getting through some doors and walls and sometimes they are completely silent. I got OHK last week while I was fighting another zombie which was completely silent. If I can't have stealth I don't think Zombies should ll

Looks like Q2 Second Quarter Advanced vehicles (repair and modifications) Advanced animals (life cycle, group behaviour) Player statistics (DayZ.com/DayZ API) New UI Player stamina Dynamic events World containers (Chests, Fridges, etc) New physics system

DO NOT KILL THEM!! You break their legs let them crawl around for half an hour and see how much fun that is. They will quickly realise this is not a good strategy. Fresho's do this usually for one of two reasons. They have nothing to lose and if they get lucky with you they can go from zero to hero or they want to die as they want a better spawn. Either way they are not concerned about dying. Don't give them that chance. PUNISH THEM! and what better way than making them crawl LOL!

TS has been discussed at length on these forums and others. It just won't happen cause it can't happen. There is absolutely no way to stop it. At the end of the day you have to draw a line in the sand and say this is where reality ends and the game begins. I like to play as HC as possible. I even play in first person when on 3pp servers and I am already at a huge disadvantage. If there was a way to do it then I would as long as everyone else is. I have been toying with the idea of connecting my TS to in game voip so that when I talk on TS then people in game can hear me but the problem with that is it annoys my team if they are close by as there is a duplication of sound.

Here's a critique, this goes in "Gallery" not "off topic" :P

Has anyone experienced this bug? We are not sure if it is just our server or a DayZ thing. Saturday 1) Found vehicle drove round for 30 minutes stopping at multiple places 2) Got out at xmas trees in Cherno 3) Drove to other side of map without getting out 4) Server Restarts 5) Log back in next day 6) I am in Cherno with all my gear - Not a FS Thought was weird but put it down to DayZ being DayZ Sunday: 1) Found vehicle drove to petrol station and fueled up 2) Drove round entire map without stopping 3) Go to get out of vehicle and nothing is working eg scroll to engine off and it does nothing so effectively can't get out of vehicle. 4) Thinking it is server lag, I log out while still in vehicle 5) Log back in 15 minutes later 6) I am back at the petrol station. TL:DR Vehicle not saving position till you get out.

I like the OP it is better than the current UI, well done! However I do like the Dev's one too, while not as beautiful it allows much better view of your surrounding area. The idea of the UI completely blinding your view is a bit average.

2 things! 1) It is time! 2) Why doesn't this thread have some pole?

Lol, Love how Americans call a liquid "Gas" :P Yes you do. The vehicles spawn with 20 ltrs (gallons) and it takes 5 full jerry cans to fill the vehicle. The 20 litres probably provide around 10-15 mins of driving and you can cover quite a bit in that time if you aren't stopping and starting. There are plenty of jerry's, you just need to check any sort of industrial or shed like building.

Absolutely hate this idea sorry. As long as the "mechanics" (no pun intended ok maybe a little) it should be a hard task to get a vehicle up and running and the reward is in itself. To take that away is ridiculous. 4hr restarts and it takes you 3hrs 55 minutes to get a vehicle going only to have despawn after 5 mins. FUCK THAT! Hoarding is a huge part of the game
