StrongBean

I exclusively play Europa server and it's certainly not an all out PVP/KoS deathmatch. I think because of the nature of vanilla it's often hard to get anywhere by yourself for extended periods opf time so groups are formed and the players may want to make new relationships with other fellow survivors. There's still snipers in Elektro, Cherno is never friendly and many bandits want your beans but there's a lot of good guys out there!

I think it would be really useful and also lead to some interesting situations if we could use the blank paper to leave notes either on corpses, in stashes or just on the floor. I understand that there are some reservations held by some admins and players because of the potential for abusive/offensive content to be left in these notes. While I share these concerns I know that I play on a mature server with very good admins. I don't think that this would be a problem where I am. Maybe a bool for note writing capability for the server would give some flexibility?

There's also a spawn point at the 'jail' at the south barracks where the 'garage' is with the big rubbish bin.

Hello survivors, I was at NWAF base on 1.8.2 vanilla and noticed that the building that also faces onto the water well (walk out of the S barracks, stand on the step and look to your 10 o'clock) has 2 weapon spawns - either side of the park bench. Usually I just run past this (noob mode: engaged) but I'm glad I saw them! I have had some OK M4/M16's with ammo and a few pistols. Are there any more of these spawns that I'm blissfully unaware of that I should be checking? I posted this over at reddit DayZ and got predictably downvoted :lol:

Hello Survivors, I have noticed this in both 1.8.1 and 1.8.2. When out and about in game, I can hear the 'swoosh' of a firing crossbow and the slamming of a car door. Always at the same level of loudness (maybe about 50 m away for the car door and about 10 m away for the crossbow, at a guess). The noises will happen between 5-30 times a minute. I have not noted if they are in a particular area. Now the crossbow noise is OK - I can live with this. The car door sound, however, causes my heart to race a little..! While I have no proof that there isn't someone with a car or a crossbow in my vicinity (I'm not an admin), this will happen where it's obvious that there isn't someone close by (middle of fields for example). I also understand that there is a limit on how fast you can activate a car door? Sometimes the door sound will happen 2-3 times in 5 seconds. I'm unsure if this is within the limits but who would do it anyway? Is this a known issue? I searched the forum and found someone saying they heard the same gunshot sound over and over. I wonder if it's the same bug with a different sound? I didn't see if they got a fix for that. Any help in fixing this would be most welcome - if you need any more information please let me know.

Hello guys, if you are looking for a European true vanilla DayZ mod server then look no further! Currently there are 15-35+ people playing, come and check it out! http://steamcommunity.com/groups/dayzeuropa/ Cheers!

I feel you on that one!! I don't think the DayZ gods ever smile on us players, but they do have a sense of humour...

This happened to me with a goat on the 20th! Although I also bagged a cow and a goat no problems after that.

I think you'll love this server! Happy surviving :)

I'm absolutely loving this server - great performance and even better players. Thanks VJ!
