will the loot (in the barracks) respawn if you stay near it?
daedrick replied to belgarionnl's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I have seen loot respawn as I went away from the building only to come back 30sec later. I have never seen loot spawn directly inside the same building I am. If loot respawn, its not as often as you think, so camping a building is not a good idea. Plus zombies will keep spawning and, lets be honest, its terribly boring to stay in the same building forever for whatever purpose you want to do that. -
There is like 1 or 2 server with that number on it. Just find another one, you have the latest version of DAYZ if its 1.5.7.

Ask ingame, will you? But fore spam sake, I will answer it so you dont post anymore. 1: Find a new bag just like you find tins cans, inside buildings and around the map. 2: Mouse over it 3: use your mouse wheel and select; take bag 4: open your old bag that have been dropped on the ground 5: take the stuff inside it and put it in your newly acquired bag. 6: You are now less ignorant.

I truely hope they are aware its DAYZ that bringed all these sales and not their ARMA 3 advertising. Another thing concerning developers. Many of these morons think that PC gaming is dead and its on consoles thats where its at. Many of them dont release modding tools because of that. Others cry at pirates that doesn't pay for the game. Thing is, people WILL buy your game if it have a good multiplayer. Kinda hard to pirate when multi get updated once in a while. Thing is, mods can generate sales, as we are witnessing right here. And finaly, thing is, PC gaming its where its at, consoles are the bane of gaming.

Ahahah, that was great, well played. I wish all the investors/producers/developers that turned rocket down about the DAYZ concept would see that. A mod placing an old ass game on the top list of the steam sales while its not even on sale. These clowns are probably oblivious to it anyway and wouldn't aknownledge it. Too bad.

Patch 1.5.7 and this being an Alpha and fucking zombie spawns
daedrick replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
The number of zombies is perfect, no problem about that. -
I rarely play with others as I only group up when I recently died because i have nothing to lose anyway and can take more risk yet, as a lone wolf, I didn't have any problem at all, looting towns. Simply, crawl near a building, press X, walk slowly inside, if you aggro a zombie or two, no big deal, they will funnel in the building, easy to kill. You got confortable with the preceding patch, thats the only thing I can see. Also, take a look at the new player/noob section of the forums, I posted a small guide to gear your up relatively easy.

Lol you people. The idea of your body staying ingame for 1 or 2 minutes after disconnecting is perfectly fine, its a great idea and would solve a lot of problem. People would log out in safe area and cheater wouldn't be able to escape death. About the other idea, Alex, you can't keep someone from login out if he really want to. Electricity cut off, shut the computer down, router switch, internet shut down, ALT+F4 are all different ways to escape a game without having to go through the interface.

One time I got killed at some army base and I pressed the normal butons to respawn in the game. But for some reason, instead of respawning on the beach with zero gear I respawned in my body with broken bones and all my inventory. So, I crawled futher in the camp only to get kille again and finaly respawn as intented. For the other player, my corpse must have disapeared. Because I had everything still on me, yet, on my screen I was dead and had to respawn, and thats what I meant to do. Yet, it happenned. So yeah, its one of the major things that need great fixing, imo.

[GUIDE] Newbie Survivor version 1.2.0.
daedrick replied to blackbeard06's topic in New Player Discussion
Hello, since the number of zombies have doubled if not more, some players are having an hard time gearing themselves up to make a stand agains't this new threat. Let me explain how to get gear that will make it possible to defend yourself if you are spotted by zombies. 1: Die or start as a new character. 2: Head inland, dont try to loot cities on the coast, it wont end well. 3: Find a barn, there are many kinds of barns. You want to find one of these as they are the smallest and have the most loot in them. Also, the least zombies and easily defendable. PIC: http://picacid.com/arma2/imgs/Land_stodola_old_open.jpg 4: Grab any weapon you want, from crossbow to winchester. 5: Win. Also, as a bonus, I will share a secret, if you CRAWL, zombies will barely notice you. Its almost like being invisible, without the invisibility. -
Servers are ALWAYS full.
-
No way in hell. It is PERFECT as it is, it was WAAAAAAAY too easy before this patch. For all the NUBS, just press the letter Z on your keyboard, and crawl. Not a single zombie will see you unless you bump into them. Learn to play.
-
Much much better. The new LOGO is so, freaking, awesome. Its so well designed and must have been really hard to do. It reads clearly DAYZ but the letters are made with the environement, very well done and original, Im lovin it. That being said, the new video is also very good. It give a good idea of the gameplay of DAYZ. Well done, once again. Other than that, it is now a lot more pleasing on the eyes, with the butons especialy and the statistic board. High five!
-
Awesome! Happy birthday mate! I love the contribution! I can't wait to see the new zombies face and increase in numbers. thanks for this awesome game and once again, have a great day!

The Official Unofficial Bandit Removal Petition
daedrick replied to The Killing Joke's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Thing is, in reality there are clues as if people are murderers that you can't get in a video game without visual help. You can always trust a guy with a bandit skin and he can be the most helpful guy in the world, but you have a visual clue that he did indeed kill high humanity survivor. In reality, the guy with insane loot, alone, suddently want to be your friend. He act wierd, he have a wierd behavior, you feel it that something is wrong with that guy. The way he dress, the way he move, the way he talk, the things he say, the tools he have. You can't display that kind of thing in a video game without some visual clue, being a bandit doesn't keep you from grouping, its simply a visual clue. It should stay in. Reset on death? Maybe, I dont know. Personnaly I like that there is some kind of consequence, and the most funny thing, is that bandits dont group together. -
Do you in any way regret this mods sudden rise of popularity?
daedrick replied to Goose Springsteen's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Im one of the new guys, and imo, it can only help the mod even if its in early stages. -
[FS] now own 3 helicopters and 1 jeep :|
daedrick replied to Jynx (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod Gallery
Wow, you are so good playing on an empty/locked server and repairing vehicules. Seeing as nobody watched your back while you guys repaired the thing and didn't much care about your surroundings at all it tells me you just abused an empty/locked server. So skilled, please, swing your epeen more. Pathetic. Play on a full server and try that now, lets see how far you get. -
Extremely slow website is in dire need of a new host.
daedrick posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Everything is in the title, its slow as hell. Dont know before the high raise of popularity, but it is very slow for me as of now. I wonder if its the same for everybody? :huh: That being said, the server hosting the characters need to be improved as well, unplayable today because there are too many people and it constantly crash. :dodgy: Another thing, you really need to consider putting this MOD on kickstarter, I would help with it and im sure many other people would so you could quit your day time job and work full time on it. ;) -

The forum and website! Thank you! :heart: -
Terrible fucking community. Absolutly fucking terrible. Worst of all, these morons are considered adults by our society, what a farce.

daedrick posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
...to be played. To all these players who help newbies understand the game and the controls. To all these players who refuse to disconnect before dying. To all these players who dont go on low pop servers to farm airfields. To all these players who dont spawn camp. To all these players who dont put wired fence at doorsteps. To all these players that dont grief. To all these players that dont spam their MIC in side channel. To all these admins who dont spawn items for them nor their friends. To all these admins that dont ban/kick people that kill them. To all these admins who ban and punish cheaters. For the rest you can keep calling yourself ''hardcore'' and ''skilled'', while I laugh at how pathetic you are. Even if you happen to kill me ingame, I will know that I did a lot better than you did, and thats a fact. Despite this game being an alpha and having many abusable flaws, I choosed like many others to play the game how its meant to be played, not abusing incompletly fleshed out mechanics and features. I choosed to help people with questions and issues. Thats what being hardcore is really is. It is A LOT harder to keep yourself from having an unfair advantages over other people than it is to use it, this is what I call respect. Respect of other individuals and game developers. Report the bugs,flaws and glitches, dont abuse them. Thank you for reading. -

daedrick replied to daedrick's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
edit: Hey oh, stop right there, I never said killing bandits and friendly or backstabbing is wrong. Nothing wrong about that its the game. Im talking about cheap ass abuses. No rules heh? Did I ever said these were rules, nope. It doesn't have to be spelled out as rules, because its comun knownledge, you could call it being a ''gentleman'' I guess. Rocket didn't meant the saving feature for players to go around on empty server building themselves a one man army to head back to a full pop server and griefing everybody in sight with their nightvision goggles and hightech scoped weapons. He meant that feature to keep your character saved in between server so you dont have to start over everytime you decide to stop playing because said server is full or down. Rocket when he introduced a save system when you disconnect wasn't meant to be abused as an ESCAPE DEATH MECHANIC. You dont need to be a rocket scientist(see what I did there?) to understand that. An admin abusing his power is just as good as a hacker/cheater, the only difference is one of them own the server. For rest of the crowd on said server, its the very samething, absolutly no difference. An admin with true sight and god mod killing everybody for no reason or a hacker with true sight and god mod doing the samething is infact, the VERY SAME THING. ...and I could go on and on and on. But you are obviously guilty of at least one of these seeing how whinny/trollish is your reaction. -

daedrick replied to daedrick's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Bwahaha, keep lying to yourselves. Its not because its a ''sandbox'' that it means you can do whatever unsportmanlike things you can think of. For exemple, if we were playing paintball, and you were going outside of the game area to restock(almost like low pop farming) or wash off paint when you get hit to continu playing(disconnecting before dying), people would kick you out and you would lose many real life friends. The only reason you cowards hide behind these absurds arguments is because there are no consequences on internet, including video games. Maybe in my life time somebody will create some way of punishing bad behavior on internet, until these days I can only make a post on a forum basicly saying that I respect people for their good sportmanship. Keep thinking you are l33t players... yeah right. -
Oooooh I see. Thanks for the answer. I rarely play with teamates, and when I do we very rarely get wounded because Im very careful. But Im a friendly and I dont shoot on sight and answers question on the side channel, but I doubt that will help my case. :P
