Well Gareth, you could always find the server you are loking for here: https://www.gametracker.com/search/dayz/ And then join it by typing the ip under Local in teh server list page.

Cock found! And some mating cars:

Since the servers crash frequently, would it be possible to remove the spawn timer. It feels kinda unjust to force us to sit and wait for 90 seconds for something that wasnt our fault. Especially since it usually takes a minute or two for the game to start even after the timer has reached its end.

Once upon a time you could bring up a playerlist and see if there were any people in the server. Will this ever return? It would be nice to have it. Also a simple functionality for some small info that you might need like: Fps, ping, latency would be nice. Sure I can use a program for it but should I really need to do that? Most games have this functionality built in and I KNOW that the Arma games have this as well as massive amounts of debug data if you want it. I dont need all that, just the ability to know how my game is running at the press of a button.

The serverlist say 50-90 ping but since I cant check it ingame Im guessing its over 9000

Loads of lag on servers today. I played on five different ones and only one was really playable. The lag was so bad that when you went to open a door, you clicked on it, then went down the street and ten seconds later it opened. This also caused quite a lot of trouble with inventory, things appearing and dissappearing in it. The improvised knife has always had the same functions as a normal knife. I've found offroad car, sedan and bus, and batteries for both truck and car, spark plug and glow plugs and loads of different wheels but NO TOOLS! Most cars come with a lugnut tool in the boot, why cant these?

No thats not it. I changed mine to 100% and when I got in to play for the first time just earlier I noticed a huge increase in fps in certain areas. I upped the antialiasing and such a bit but then it went down. I saw 167 fps at one point which has never ever happened before. I did however notice a lot of flickering and textures going on and off and when this is fixed I believe the framerates will get even better. Its quite a feat actually to have accomplished this so hats off to the devs.

Its experimental, its for trying out performance and bug feedback, not for players trying it out. Experimental has never been a particularly crowded place and just because people wants to try the new renderer early shouldnt mean that things need to be changed. In short time it will come Stable and we can all play it. As for big streamers getting a chance to play on their own server, they DO promote the game by streaming it and quite a few of them have been involved with promoting the game in other ways as well.

Go to filter, unclick password, set max ping to 250, type experimental under host, voila! 19 experimental servers that you cant join because they are full.

It might be steam that is acting up. Go in steam settings and activate the mic there

I had the weirdest bug ever happen to me just now. I went into the police station in Komarova and on the second floor is a nice shiny cr75 with a full magazine in it. I can't pick it up though but as I am trying I hear shooting outside. Sounds like an automatic pistol, kinda like the CR75. I really need that pistol now so when i see it in teh floor inventory i notice that as the person outside is shooting, the bullet count in this gun drops and the gun is firing and cocking. But its layign there on some bins. At first I thought the server had crashed or I was lagging but I could eat, rip up clothes, open doors and equip other items. Very strange.

Yes they do, but whining about it won't change it. Neither will making comparisons that aren't exactly correct. I've played the game since its release to Early access and has followed its development closely. Saying that its not playable is wrong. Saying that it hasn't evolved is wrong. Saying that its never going to be finished is most likely wrong as well. Saying that time goals set haven't been met is however correct. But so far its not really relevant. Its just one more thing to bash. If you like this game, stop doing it.

Not really. There was never a set date for the house being done and you were told not to move in until the roof and walls was up but you did it anyways so....

The best thing to do when you start out is to look for proper clothing and a backpack and focus on this for the first ten-fifteen minutes or so. Food is not really scarce in this build as you can easily pick apples and drink from wells and sustain yourself that way. But cans are everywhere, you should find them easily. While you look for food and clothing you WILL find weapons and ammo. Usually you will not find ammo for the weapon you got right away and this is where the clothes and backpacks come in. Pick em all up, or as many as you can. Then you will increase your chances for actually finding ammo for a gun that you have. For instance, if you carry a mosin on your back, carbine in your hands, magnum, red nine, amphibia, 1911 and sawed-off in your pack you have a very good chance of actually getting a gun-ammo combo that works. Then when youve found soemthing decent you just throw away the others. Also, If you find a dead guy, cut up the corpse and you get fine meat from it. You need charcoal tabs though.

I logged in at Balota mil base and noticed that my mp5 was gone. It was fully kitted with red dot and all the stuff so it was kinda annoying. I went looking in the barracks for an AKS instead but as im entering the one in the middle someone starts shooting at me. I run awayand see a green backpack on the guy but not much else. i position myself at the TEC building and try to spot my assailant but he never shows. After waiting for a while I decide to leave and avoid the rest of the military base. As I move west I get to the hunting tower nearby and see a guy with a green backpack climbing it. I take aim and fire off some rounds from my AKM and he goes down. I notice hes still breathing so i climb up and tie him up and bandage him. His gear is all ruined so I let him be and move off. I checked his name beforehand and see that he doesnt leave the server til I do so he probably lived. Good for him. I met five nice people today. Unfritunately I had to go to cherno and there were no nice people there. I fired six magnum rounds point blank into one fellow but I didnt see a single one hit. I was kinda annoyed at him as I let him live a minute earlier when i came upon him bandaging. It sucks that he couldnt return the favour but just HAD to kill me adding my body to the seven already piled up in the building.

In the very beginning of the stream a zombie is punched out in Kamyshowo wearing a firemans outfit. https://youtu.be/cEZ0Jqt_Qis?t=5

I don't like that feeling.

Craft knife, cut stick from tree, make rope from rags, make backpack from rags and burlap. Pretty basic stuff really. The most annoying part of it is when you are standing on a rocky beach where you can see literally thousandsa of rocks, you search for it and find nothing, you search again - nothing. And then this happens for twenty fucking times before you find a rock? On a beach? Full of rocks?

3. The way to enter that building(theres only one type that does this) is to sit down in front of the doorway facing away, push the button for "step over" while turning back quickly towards the building. Your character will step into the building and you can move inside it and even through the walls of it. It might be hard to get the loot as you are walking on the ground, not on the floor of the building but if you go into first person perspective you can usually get the "take" icon up from a distance.

Find someone loggin in, not able to defend himself, knock him out and break his legs with the chain and then say rude things in french. And then when he comes to, knock him out again with my chain again saying rude things in french and adding the word "noob" before leaving.

I watched TRMZ stream today and saw that it happened to him too, but he just put something in his hands and used it, cancelled, and Hey presto! The gun was back. Some say its skillz but I say Magic, blood magic. But thanks for the tip. I rarely have the patience to relog though. Theres always some other weapon you can use. I do wish they would make the Ui with dedicated weapon slots so it wouldnt happen. A slot for the main weapon, a slot for submachineguns and one for pistols. Even if you doublecarry it should solve this problem. I played with a friend some time ago and he's still nagging about the AK he lost, even though I gave it to him AND I gave him another when he lost his. God damn naggers.

I found a VSS and was quite happy about it. Found soem deer and practised my shots on them. Then when I decide to leave the game decided that a VSS goes on the ground and an aks in the weapon slot and that was that. I looked around and rolled in the grass(sometimes work) but it was nowhere to be found so I left. On another relatively new character I went to Myskino tents. Saw no people and heard no shots til I ran into a tent and a guy was laying on the floor, gun in his hand. He didn't react when I walked in so I figured he was maybe logging in or out. I went behind him and decided to him up but then he moved so I had to shoot him. Sorry for that but I'm 100% certain he would have shot at me. Afterwards I looked around and found the remains of two dead players. No bodys, just gear. I took what I needed and left. On the same character, same server I went to Zeleno. The doors to the prison building were closed so i figured someone might be there and went in. And correctly, one was upstairs. I tried talking to him but he didn't reply So I threw a flashbang instead. He saw it and ran out. I couldn't get my damn weapon up so I ran upstairs instead and now the roles were reversed. I tried again to talk but nothing. After five minutes of waiting I grew bored and ran out, AK ready and all. He had gone away.

To be frank, kos:ing with another type of weapon isn't "trying another playstyle". its the same playstyle. try again.

Wheres the excitement in knowing you've got all the gear you need in your little base? You go there, get fully geared in no time so you can go on "adventures"? What adventures are those? In case you missed it, the adventure is spawning, moving through the map trying to survive and gear up. If you remove that part, there is no game. Being fully geared in this game right now serves no purpose. If fully geared PVP is what you're after, there are much better games. I actually played Left for dead quite a bit and like it a lot. It lacked the atmosphere and tension that Dayz has though but it was quite right on the zombies.

I personally dont care for basebuilding and dont see the point of it at all. I hate games where all you do is collect a bunch of stuff so you can build your little home. The perfect Dayz for me would be one where you spawn in, hear a moan, turn around and theres ten zombies standing there, then you run. And thats what you do for the entire game. You pick up stuff that you find in the world to defend yourself from the zeds. You barricade yourself in a building to get a little breather and the only place that is somewhat safe from them is the forest. Going into a city should be a death sentence and if you get wounded it should be very hard to actually get up and running again. Zombies should be scary, not a nuisance. Sadly, this isnt what it is right now, its mostly PVP. And I dont care so much for that either as I'm always killed by some sneaky bastards.
