Survival Operations is a semi-hardcore Tactical "Mil-Sim" community for DayZ based on the US Marine Corps structure and motifs. Although fun, friendship and the fact that this is a game are of paramount importance. We are looking for a tight nit, core team supported by many highly skilled and adverse players. Our group is highly active, skilled, dedicated to the team and the mod. With a core leadership team comprised from real world Military Personnel (USMC / ARMY), and several founding members having military backgrounds as well, we feel we can create something unique to DayZ. Players will be required to go through several stages of training events (basic and advanced) based on real-world standards, training tactics, and ideals. If you're interested in pushing yourself and being part of a community to be reckoned with, then Survival Ops is the place for you! If you do decide to apply, please note that we're looking for people with excellent situational awareness, dedication, and a firm understanding of basic game mechanics. We recruit players that play mistake-free, as well as those who show a willingness to learn and listen. The ability to hunt other players is certainly a plus, but what we're really looking for are players that don't make mistakes which lead to their own death or the death of other Marines. What can you expect to find on our website? SOMC News and Events listings. DayZ News and Information. Interviews. Monthly Prize Drawings (games, hardware, etc). Community Forums & Discussion. Guides (text and video). Game Footage (via our YouTube channels). & More... We are always scouting the community for unique content ideas and staff. If you have an idea for content/utilities you would like to produce and publish on the Survival Operations website, please send me a pm here on the DayZ forums or on the SO forums. <-- Click to submit your application today* Survival Operations is looking for exceptional players of all types to solidify our ranks as we develop our DayZ based Tactical Mil-Sim Platoon. As a Platoon, Survival Ops strives to be the best, we are never satisfied and we are always looking to better ourselves. As we place an emphasis on stability and maintaining a strong core of leadership. We are looking for mature gamers who wish to join a team with longevity and success in mind. Applicants should be highly motivated and capable of playing in a tactical manner. We are not recruiting for the bench and we expect our Marines to be dedicated, available, and willing to learn! Our main goal for Survival Operations is to form a highly skilled Marine Platoon with the outlook on future game content and to use the time we have until the release of a stand alone DayZ title to develop and grow as a platoon. If you feel like your current team holding you back, we want to hear from you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Monthly Prize Drawings: Survival Operations will be holding monthly drawings and/or contests with a wide variety of prizes! We are proud to announce our very first drawing for the month of August. What are the prizes? 2x Arma II: Combined Operations (via Steam) 1x OCZ Agility 3 2.5" SATA III SSD - 60GB For more information, visit our website at www.survivaloperations.net

Attention: Rocket. Please review the DayZ server host rules.
meta87 replied to Zoop's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
2.) Something needs to be done in the logs that will allow admins to view who killed who or it needs to show in the death messages its self. This should show who is nuking servers at the very least. Or how about this? What ever the hell is being done to submit these scripts, why not make it so only those connected as admin to the server can submit X scripts (X being a list that are known for being used by the hacks and are not generally sent. OR An official list of what to look for in logs to determine if a player is hacking or not could be posted along with a parser to make this easier to check! 3.) Has BE not had years to do this via ArmA2 its self? These hacks are not DayZ specific, they are exploits made available by the ArmA engine its self. This argument hold no value when looking at other AC Clients out there that are used in games that have MANY private servers (PunkBuster / VAC for example). These other Anti-Cheat softwares seem to still be able to track the hackers even tho there are private servers. Next? I don't think a simple Rule change to admins is the key, SOMETHING must be done to the game or mod its self to make it EASIER for admins to get proof of those hacking or to restrict non admin users from being able to submit the scripts that are being used to spawn gear into servers. If there was then a hacker on a server, you would know it was an admin. Take video or SS and report for blacklisting! -

meta87 replied to Zoop's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
There is NO WAY to get proof with the current settings DayZ runs. If a player kills another in any way, there should be a lot of who killed who to allow us to see who the assholes are that are nuking servers. With the latest BE scripts.txt updates the scripts.log shows nothing that can give you proof of a hacker! In addition, there is no public way of looking at your logs and knowing what is or isnt legit. Only way to catch a hacker is if you have name plates on and can get your xhair on them to show their name. Otherwise, forget about proof. -

We are opening early applications for those interested (your app will be processed before those posted post web launch). What is Survival Operations? Survival Operations is a DayZ Tactical Military-Simulation community based on the US Marine Corps structure. With all "high command" having real world Military backgrounds (USMC / ARMY / AirForce / etc.) and several of our original group players having military backgrounds as well, we are forming something that is unique to DayZ. With a tough application and interview process for selecting recruits, a solid youtube following (via some of our members channels and our official channel), a strong core of real military personnel, and the drive to create something great; we will be putting players through several stages of training events (basic and advanced) based on real-world standards and training tactics. We will also be using the USMC rank structure with pro-con evaluations and cutting scores to evaluate players eligibility for promotion, collecting data via contact reports (Con-Rep), after action reports (AAR), and priority intelligence reports (PIR). & So much more! Check out our website and keep an eye for the official launch soon! http://www.survivaloperations.net What can you expect to find on our website? SOMC News and Events listings.

[PSA: Server Admins] How to Optimize your DayZ Server for MAXIMUM Performance.
meta87 replied to a topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
Will be applying this guide to my current dedicated box. However I currently only have 100MB connection compared to your 1GB and I also run 2 DayZ servers. What do you recommend differently than what the guide purposes for our specific bandwidth? We also do automated reboots of our servers every 6 hours. However most of the time a reboot causes our tents and vehicles to disappear until next reboot. Any idea on what is the cause of this? -
DevilDogGamer has released his official launch and recruitment video. Currently 85+ applications have been submitted since the release of the video only a few hours ago!

Survival Servers, Who will be the last to survive?!
meta87 replied to Lin (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Sounds exactly like Hunger Games. Very cool concept. Another term we use for something like this is Iron-Man competition. -

Best of luck with the group. Maybe some day Survival Operations and your said group can do some operations together or against one another. -

Hyperactive anti-server-hopping measure?
meta87 replied to hatfieldcw's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I did the same thing, and found that it was actually because i joined one of those private non hive servers by accident. You likely did the same! -
Depending on what level of play and group size you are interested in, Survival Operations is recruiting. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/47831-survival-operations-live/ for more info!

DayZ commander is a great tool, however it is assisting stream snipers to ruin peoples live streams.

Looks like a group I seen and killed just Thursday. Hear gun fire to the SW of airfield, then see 1x player running up the middle of the Airfield to the ATC with 10x zeds on his back. Then start hearing multiple weapons firing. Shortly after 4 more players run out onto the field from my front right, and they all head into the ATC. After a minute they all go into the top of the ATC and a 6th player stands up from the rooftop of the Firehouse tower. I begin engaging with my M107 from 500-600m and kill 5 of the 6 before any of them were able to log (a matter of 15 seconds).

We have officially launched our website. Be sure to check us out at http://www.survivaloperations.net Our core group holds enough equipment to supply an entire platoon in full at least twice. With a full squad worth of NVG's, Range Finders, and GPS's. So equipment is not an issue currently. Food supplies are easily obtained by hunting. Most of what we will be doing are raiding towns, presence patrols, attacking other clans, and large scale operations in large towns like Cherno, Elektro, etc. Vehicle recovery and additional FOB (forward operating base) establishments. In addition to DayZ we are working to get an ArmA2 server up with ACE mod, as well as servers in other games (TBD) for something outside of just DayZ for all of us to do.

lol nice. Usually when I engage a player, they are 500+ meters away and are in groups of 4 or more. I have not yet received return fire after firing on a group (they cant find me). This is a common thing tho in the southern towns, so yes. the south has karma. The North is just death!

Looking for A server host to help me out.
meta87 replied to [email protected]'s topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
What he is asking is WHAT exactly to look for. Most of us know where to look, but don't know what we are looking for to be begin with. In piles of text you can not look at logs and find things that are fishy, if you don't know what is and isn't fishy. -
