  1. I bet the server owners argument would be "Well I pay $60 a month why can I not run my server the way I want." Not agreeing with them, but I'm sure that would be one of their main arguments.
  2. Wanted to say these guys are awesome! My not so coordinated friend took a nasty fall off a loft in a barn outside of Polana yesterday. I hopped into their TS and in just a few minutes I had at least 3 members trying their hardest to find some medical supplies and people to send to my position. Unfortunately, before they could make it to my buddy, a bandit had found his mark on my friend's paraplegic body. Thanks again for the help!

    Shoot out of vehicles.

    Lol that's pretty hilarious actually. It'll definitely cut down on a "whoever gets out first wins" sorta deal. I think it will also make cars in game play a little more important. As of right now all they are is just transport and nothing more. While your character is sitting there looking out the window like an idiot with shots coming at you.

    Shoot out of vehicles.

    I remember that in Operation Flashpoint: Cold war crisis, that when ACE mod came out for it they had the feature to actually shoot from vehicles. I think it would be a great thing to be implemented into the game itself. It would at least lead to some kind of defense when driving with a bunch of survivors. I never understood why they decided not to put it into ARMA itself when the devs all broke away from OFP. I feel it would definitely add to more of a game play to vehicles besides just a form of transport. As of right now in both ARMA and the DayZ mod everyone is forced to stop the vehicle and get out to fire. While this will still be viable option, the players may want to try and make a run for it while laying down some form of fire. I know vehicles won't be added into SA for a little while but hopefully it'll be a feature they planned on doing. Thoughts?

    Railroad track.

    Didn't think anyone would notice the tag lol. Yeah, I searched "Rail" and "railroad". Just came off of a double shift and my mind isn't exactly all there I'm sorry.

    Railroad track.

    I couldn't find anything in search for this, so I really hope it hasn't been mentioned yet. So I noticed that now in the SA, that the railroad goes basically full circle around the map. So it got me thinking, do you think that the devs are planning to implement something with this? I'm not saying that there will be a working train, seeing that it's the apocalypse and all. So I was wondering what everyone's thoughts on all of this is. Personally I assume that it will be used for landmark and navigation purposes like the power lines that take you from the few major cities. By the way they did an amazing job mapping it with some places that actually have trundle bridges with roads underneath them.

    Servers with weather on?

    In ARMA 2, it used to be a GIGANTIC FPS killer, but I can't remember if they ended up fixing that. I think I read somewhere that the rain is supposed to lower your body temperature and only the indoors,fire,rain coats,sunlight,etc, can help bring that up just like in the mod. I also read that when you see your breath, it's supposed to tell you that you if you are standing still and not really moving much it will also lower the temperature and the visible breath is supposed to warn you. http://dayz.gamepedia.com/Temperature

    Need shopping advice...

    I have both, Rust is extremely fun. It gets pretty boring however after a while since it doesn't take long at all to get fully geared out. The only aspect that keeps it fresh is defending your house against countless people trying to constantly break in regardless of you being logged in or not. It has some good features that DayZ should have, but it would probably break the game. For example, for a lot of servers there is an option the server owner enables called "Sleepers". It basically means that after you log out, your character stays on the ground . This means you need to log out in a safe spot but players can still kill you. It doesn't have a master "hive" each server you play on is a new server and new character. DayZ however has way more updates than Rust has had. When Rust actually has done an update it's only a few things really added. DayZ has had way more patches and way more content and fixes in each one. In the end, you can't exactly compare the two games. They both have a survival aspect to it yes, but they just have different ideas to them at this current time. Just remember that whenever you buy one of these soon, the price is most likely going to go up for both games the more it gets completed.

    Duplicate Character?

    I had the same issue. Turns out some servers were on the version before the current one but it still let me join it. After joining a 1.7.2 server however, I was forced to create a new server. It's very strange.
  12. Mine has been doing this as well. I found out that it is linked to some servers running 1.1.7.5. Instead of an error message it lets me play on the outdated server but on a character I had been playing on for a while now. When I join a 1.7.2 server, it puts me on some random server with some character in Novy Sabor. Very strange.
  13. Obviously it isn't a "Useless thread" or else you would have ignored it. Also, I am just reporting something that happened today that hopefully that could be looked into. But it's okay if you are trying to be a troll. So have something useful to say or stfu.
  14. So I was playing on the Chicago 40 server run by the STAB clan, when me and my teammate killed a few of their members in the city of Vybor. After we killed each clan mate, they would restart the server so their bodies would disappear and so we couldn't take their loot. I think that it's annoying that even though you legitimately kill someone, you can just restart your own server. Sort of a "If I can't have it neither can you" concept. I feel like it's a very abusive way to run a server. [sTAB]Dally [sTAB]Tea-guru Can't remember the last guy.
