    I am tired of the randomization of player characters

    You can change your name in steam with no effort

    Admin tools

    I have used Zomberry Admin Tools, Community Online Tools and VPP Admin Tools and if they don't work it's probably a server permissions issue. My issue is every one of them is missing features the other has in a way you would have to run two of them at the same time to touch all bases. Zomberry has no ESP, V++ has no freecam and Community Online Tools has no invisibility.
  3. I am tired of the randomization of characters and why is it still not using the Steam name by default instead of "Survivor"?

    Anyone else hear moaning in-game?

    There is a glitch where it makes a zombie scream noise when someone logs on to the server. I have heard it. I also saw someone say that global voice sidechat has been turning on since the new update. It may have something to do with changes in the walkee talkees. The explosion could have been someone suiciding at a gas station by attacking the pumps.

    Too late to start playing Dayz Mod?

    Wait till a steam sale and buy Arma 2 Combined Operations. It usually shows up for around 8 bucks instead of the usual 25 bucks. The mod has better game features compared to standalone but worse graphics. It may give you a better idea of what to expect in the future of standalone. Dayz Mod is kind of weak but there are others you can download with Dayz Commander that are much better. There are even some solo play mods available on websites with AI Bandits and Heroes if you prefer to play that way.

    We will se cars in next experimental update?

    He is yanking your chain. You will know when they add them because they will all be blown up around the military loot spawn points.
  8. (From the wiikipedia post on World War Z) Dayz is based on World War Z in which uses the laws of The Zombie Survival Guide which says that Zombies are human bodies reanimated by an incurable virus. devoid of intelligence, desirous solely of consuming living flesh, and cannot be killed unless the brain is destroyed. Decomposition will eventually set in, but this process takes longer than for an uninfected body and can be slowed by effects such as freezing. Although zombies do not tire and are as strong as the humans they infect, they are slow-moving and incapable of planning or cooperation in their attacks. Zombies usually reveal their presence by moaning Note the slow moving description and the reanimated comment. Zombies are the "undead" so technically speaking they are not dead however they are not alive either in the sentient "I think therefore I am" sort of way. Slow moving zombies become a threat when they become like ambient noise and people take them for granted. Nothing is scarier than when you try to be stealthy only to realize that a swarm of zombies have noticed you when you never noticed them. The current dayz zombies should be beatable with a melee weapon easily one on one but near impossible when you get swarmed. The ability to run from them should be possible. If your out of their line of sight they should stop chasing because they have a one track mindset Using that to make them follow you to an enemy and then hide would be a great mechanic especially when bases are introduced or surrounding your base with zombies would make anyone sneaking around the base impossible.

    The zombie issue is on the new stable release because I never noticed it on experimental. It makes it unplayable until you find a gun and then shooting draws swarms of zombies to you. If they knew melee targeting was out then it should never have been released as a stable build.

    I see there is a substantial increase in the number of zombies and a severe glitch when it comes to fighting them with melee weapons. I hit a zombie in the head about 20 times with a firefighter axe before the swarm of 6 of them killed me and it did not even flinch.

    Please add slow (Romero-style) zombies as a server option.

    This is based on World War Z... the book, not the movie. The book had slow zombies.

    I agree for the most part. However I do not understand why everyone is creating zombies that are strategic geniuses with lightning speed. They are supposed to be decaying flesh which would make them slow and the longer they rot the less accute their hearing, vision and mobility would be. They also should have a singular motivation, to kill anything that moves as long as it is in sight and lose motivation once they can't see you. If people want to be challenged that way then they could add bandit AI later on in the Military bases where the best weapons are. Nothing is worse than spawning in next to a couple zombies and being instantly killed or chased all over the map by something that is faster than players and can see you even if you are out of line of sight and over a mile ahead of it. Also why can't people spawn in with a basic weapon to give them a chance. So many times I have spawned in and been unable to find any kind of weapon because people have already looted the area. Fists can take out one zombie but if you get attacked by more then your dead. What will happen when they up the zombie count to projected goals? How will anyone fight 20+ zombies with no weapons and no way to run off??
