We raided a base yesterday and it took 3 hours even though we could climb in and had all the ammo in the world at hand. Now we are so geared up that we can raid any base on the server within minutes. But we only reached that stage because we raided a base that let us jump over the wall (bad design) which had a thousand bullets inside collected by a whole clan over days of time. If you look at the total time investment it is days of playtime that gets you to that level, so it is not easy to raid bases until you have invested a dozen hours or stolen loot from someone who invested a dozen hours, or the base is just built vulnerable.

Official recently got wiped, but then EVERYTHING on every official server is gone, ALL bases and characters. But yeah people raid anything and everything and some people put in an effort to destroy all parts of the base and burn everything. I can't be sure that it wasnt dupers with unlimited grenades or hackers that did it.

Was it on official?

Yeah i know a clan who had 2 m3s and one had a broken fueltank. They just kept is as storage and never drove it because its unfixable. You have to blow up the truck to make a new one spawn haha.

Yes xD

Hello! Please add poisonous berries and mushrooms back into the game. I had a lot of fun poisoning hobos in Svetloyarsk with posionous berries in 2013.

They added the original AUG from the .62 version AND an extra AUG that is far better than the original one. What AUG did you want?

Why does my recording look molten like this? I am using Shadowplay. V-Sync is DISABLED. I only have this on DayZ not on other games.

Look at Wobo's sickness guide on youtube. He explains in detail how you keep healthy. It's easy once you know how.

There are modded servers with roleplaying communities where people have big groups with relations, reputations and wars etc.

As someone who never builds bases, and only occasionally tries to raid bases, I have the exact opposite opinion. Wooden gates are a pain to get throught. I don't even bother most of the time, because i know if I shoot hundreds of rounds into the gate, there is a high chance that the loot inside will either be worse than what I already have, or that there will be another gate, that I won't have the resources to break. The fastest base raids (If i don't run out of ammo/explosives halfway through), end up taking at least an hour (with 1 or two people). I recommend you build metal gates, those are way tougher than wooden ones and nearly indestructible. My friends climbed into the back-window of a base, and we tried to shoot our way out with the 1000+ rounds we found inside. We didn't even break one of the two metal gates. Another time we threw 6 grenades at one of those gates. It was worn afterwards. I think the people raiding you, could either climb over some of your gates and disassemble them from the inside quickly, or they had an unusual amount of ammo and grenades stashed somewhere that they use for base raiding. -Tip: If bases were tougher, you'd have to bring an even ungodlier amount of grenades, ammo, weapon cleaning kits and tools to raid them. I doubt anyone would be willing to do that. Bases would be too safe in my opinion, and in most cases they are already not worth to raid. I recommend you build a few metal gates after eachother that you can't in any way climb over, distanced from eachother so that the blast radius from a grenade can't destroy more than one at a time. Also exclusively use 4-digit locks, 3-digit only have a 1000 possible passnumbers which can be found out after around 15 minutes. Raiders would have to bring a whole truckload of ammo/grenades to get in. There are also servers with custom mods and settings that make bases tougher to raid or indestructible.

Broken Nutrition/Hydration mechanics
Pyongo Bongo replied to Private Evans's topic in General Discussion
Surviving on public servers is really easy for me. I don't even have to try to find food, it just comes to me! Whenever i walk through cherno or elektro i find bags and bags of rice, jars of jam and enough food in general. I have been staying on the coast mostly though. -
If the devs added Namalsk as a playable map i would cry of happiness
Pyongo Bongo posted a topic in General Discussion
I always thought Namalsk was the most scary and immersive (at least to me) map. Now the devs said that they worked with the maker of Namalsk in order to test modding and such, they even uploaded a screenshot of Namalsk inside of SA. I really hope we will be able to play Namalsk inside SA, since the devs kind of managed to port it into the game. I really like the cold climate and the style of the map, do you think they are going to make it playable, or can anyone confirm this? -
Should a DayZ vet make a return AKA are the "flavor features" there already?
Pyongo Bongo replied to p4nnus's topic in General Discussion
Some cool stuff is still missing but a lot of really cool (mostly small) features are there instead. Broken *legs* are back, yes. I would also say that the game is better than ever before. -

The Project Lead of DayZ is also the maker of Namalsk, he released it yesterday! *cries of happenis* -
I would like to be able to see, in the community-tab server browser, wether the server is running any mods or has custom server settings such as more stamina or loot. I am always looking for servers without any of these modifications, it is impossible to tell wether a server is or isn't modified in any way. The reason I don't just play on the public servers is that they enable you to serverhop or bring characters, that geared up on low-pops, onto full-pops which often leads to deathmatches in Kamyshovo and takes away from the survival horror atmosphere. What also makes it hard to find mod-free, standard-settings servers is that many servers have "vanilla" as part of their name, when in reality they are running a mod named vanilla+ lol

I rarely ever wear backpacks because I hate how all of them make my character look, in my eyes the child briefcase is the best backpack because of how it works as a fashion statement!

I don't think they do, but I have seen posts about one or two public servers disappearing. DayZ Voegel is my favorite 3pp server and my friends have had camps on it for weeks on end, I have only experienced them wiping everything a couple of times within the three or so years it has been online.
-
I preffer private servers that don't wipe their persistance files and don't have nighttime and are without multiple servers on the same hive. Private without sibling servers on the same hive because you can't server hop for loot and combatlogging is a little less lucrative. I also don't like the multiple universes vibe public servers give me. No persistance wipes because they mean you can't make camps and there is way too much loot going around, I think it gets rid of the loot economy so that people have more guns. You can check wether a server does this by reading it's name and checking the messages you get when playing on it, maybe on it's website. No nighttime because there is an exploit that lets you see in the dark and it's pretty ugly.

Has hacking been fixed on DayZ standalone?
Pyongo Bongo replied to zigglr's topic in General Discussion
I don't meet any hackers on private hives, probably because of low player counts too -
You can, let go of shift for a split second and left click whilst sprinting. I have know this trick for about two years (you should also hold a+w or d+w, not only w) They are also adding some kind of proper sprint/charge attack in the future.

Maybe it has become winter in Chernarus

Why 2-slot-pants when you spawn with 4 slots?
Pyongo Bongo replied to roguetrooper's topic in General Discussion
Cheeki breeki Also only wearing 2-slot pants and nothing else lets you have a concealed derringer and look as harmless as possible -
I think I saw new smoke in .63 demo, I'm pretty sure what you are talking about is way better in .63
