Can confirm this is a problem and the gun is not working.

How can anyone argue this is not proof? you see him shoot the one guy and it says 'Was killed by Freckles.' you see his corpse FALL down the ladder. You see him BACK UP THERE INSTANTLY, with the same equipment. Seriously, some of you guys should not be posting the forums.

Date/Time: Any What happened: Marking the map allows anyone on the server with a map to see marked locations. Where you were: Marking Camp What you were doing: Started marking the map to have a rally point with my friends. When I marked the map, before I could take a screenshot of it, he informed me that he could see it as well. *Current installed version: 1.7.1.5. Current OA Beta. *Server(s) you were on: Any *Your system specs: Irrelevant *Timeline of events before/after error: Setting up Camp before marking the map, after I realized that the map marking marked for EVERY player map, I did not have enough room to pick up the whole camp...

No, that's not how it works Antonio. No server can just 'Ban' you. They have to remove the ban unless they have a legit reason to ban you or result in their server becoming blacklisted. Short case, if they are found out they got kicked for kicking other members from their server from clan mates, then banning them- Their server will not reach the hive and be shutdown.

Direct Chat doesn't work 'just fine'. Direct chat has a limit to its range, this doesn't help new players at all.

I placed down several tents, which were right next or into trees. So its working perfect for me.

Your GB of Ram might be a bit low. You may need to upgrade.I don't think 3GB is enough. I know the single player game of Arma2 and OA require only a gig, but the mod is a lot different and more demanding. I know on my eight gigs, I use roughly 30% of my ram just on Day-Z. Also, why are you using the tag -world= empty. Only Tags I have on are... -beta=Expansion\beta;ca;Expansion\beta\Expansion -mod=@DayZ;ca -nosplash -window

Are you running steam in administrative mode? Does this happen on every server or just one?

I am not sure why it hasn't been done yet, but why not simply allow when a user restarts their games to have a bandit skin and pick being a 'bandit' or survivor. Now, you might say 'Well they can just pick survivor and lie!" Well, if you say that. You got more problems to work out. Even survivors lie, and kill others, but at least at this point you will give some people a choice and be able to tell 'This person is a bandit' and 'That person might NOT be a bandit.' You wouldn't be punishing any individual player as you are giving them the choice to pick the skin. They take the risk and become the bandit target they should have always been to begin with, allowing the survivors to communicate and work together better. As Bandits have a major one up in this regard. People who simply choose survivor skins and kill survivors are generally bad bandits who camp Chenro/Eletro and always end up dieing anyway. 'Oh then people will just shoot the bandits more.' Yeah? No Shit, that's kinda the point? Are you not going to shoot them? Don't use the skin then. Having the choice is nice and really does nothing but offer a variety back that the majority of the players would like to have. I would love to hear some feedback and suggestions. But this is ultimately I believe the best way to keep people from getting the bandit skin from defending themselves, give the option to the bandits who want the skin to have it, its a comfortable compromise.

If you logged out, the loot in the packs disappear.

Hey! I wanted to ask a question really quick. Recently I have noticed the server I mainly play on doesn't appear to have a day and night cycle anymore. It used to, but it never went to daytime and everytime it appears to get darker, when we relog in the time is always around 5:30pm on the server. It was 5:30pm this morning when I logged off at 3:30am. Then it was 5:30pm yesterday around 7pm. Is... this allowed? I am going to be moving to a new server if this is allowed or not regardless. I am just so disheartened to learn the server I play on removes the night experience completely. Edit Relogged in the server, time is now around 10am on the server. Hze pointed out some servers times are screwed potentially. Looking for current links/posts from Day-Z staff to confirm this.

I am inclined to believe Hze. I just relogged in the server and the time is listed at 10ish am now. I remember playing it a couple days ago and someone reset the server and it was suddenly night time. Maybe the sync time for servers is screwed. :I

Do you have a link to a thread to confirm this Hze? -Does some forum searching.-

To be honest, if drinks and food went back to being super rare like in 1.7.1.2. I would love the game, it really forced me out of my tent to go hunt for food and other players.

I am fairly positive messing with the time on a server also messes with the loot. Its not a big deal to me, It actually explains a few things to me and I have really no desire to play/advocate for that server anymore with my friends. So we will simply be packing up what is left of our gear and moving to our own server which will be finished and complete today... With NIGHTTIME. ~Ravin

Or you know, you bark orders at them, turn away to look at something, they find a gun and shoot and kill you. Fairly easily might I add.

I can just imagine you throwing a tin can at someone, they go apeshit, two of your friends run up with you from each side of the person, smashing them with an axe, ripping their corpse apart for loot and sprinting off into opposite directions.

IMO -

Even if sidechat is enabled in the mission through the server, Beta ArmaII players are unable to access the direct chat through scrolling through their channel options due to it being disabled. Please bring back Direct Chat. New players need this.

You should start an Axe Murderer Clan, where you guys only use Axes, horde loot like dragons and piss off those bad bandits in Chenro/Eletro I can just see you guys now crackling manically, running into the hills like the movie "The Hill's have Eyes"

It took me maybe a few days to regroup with my friend. Several trial and errors. Takes a bit of time and patience. Getting used to the game, trust noone but your friend. You can't sprint openly into areas, watch zombies, crouch run... crawl. The game has a lot going on... I think it took me roughly ten hours to get the basics down. Like Charlie Sheen said, This game only has one gear, 'Go'. If you want to PM me, I can go over the basics with you and you will /never/ aggro a zombie anymore. Not to mention with the new LoS setup, you can avoid and get any zombie off of you with a bit of work and careful planning.

Record it please. Oh Lords. I would die. Hahahahaha... Oh man just full sprint into Eletro, check that school/office building, run like a mad man into apartments. Just go nuts. you'll find one eventually. @ Blt #Winning -

Ghillie suit running through the urban area would look like the biggest noob thing ever, Armed with only a hatchet and some beans... Lay in the bushes behind some homes in Chenro... Oh gods... The Lulz. Perfect disguise. Genius.

Buwhaha... This is fucking brilliant! BRILLIANT. Must do this.
