    I like the idea of the slots being reduced. Very much so...and it should have been done years ago. Nobody should be walking around with an M-16 in their trousers and a Glock in their T-Shirt and a Mosin in their backpack. It's fucking stupid.

    And while your at it Devs, make the fucking zombies lethal again. It's absolutely ridiculous that the main antagonist in the game cannot kill the player.

    Thanks. 🙂

    You have to learn to love DayZ, warts and all.

    But it can be a super frustrating game when you're starting off no doubt and understanding the game can be tough. However, when you learn the ropes, there really is no other game like it. Despite its many flaws, it has turned into the longest game I've ever played and the best.

    Man let me explain. Idk about battlemetrics or something, but Steam has 2 ports: 1st is game port that all users shall set for connection and 2nd is query port - is was created for requesting Server information like A2S_Players (players list with how long playing in current session+ scor, A2S_Info (full server info) and etc.

    That may be the problem you can knock in steam query port (knock-knock-knock in steam query port... kno...), sorry, well that might be an issue. but I'd queried Steam about your submitted IP:Port and Steam repord me the server for now it's full (map Esseker, name The walking blah-blah-blah).

    That's quite odd actually, but server not responding on A2S_Players, that's bit not normal but nothing special i guess...

    Battlemetrics com is a site that allows you to see servers for online games.

    On there you can get the IP addresses for DayZ servers. Such as the game port example below

    Untitled-1.jpg

    I used to be able to cut and paste the IP address into the Direct Connect button on the DayZ launcher and get into a server with that IP address.

    Now I cannot because the button doesn't work and hasn't since the update before last.

    Idk man I used that button abou 7 minutes ago and it's working. I was aboe to connect to my server but in launcher it was gray (the server)...

    Well, unless I'm doing something wrong, it's not working for me.

    Was there anything special that you did?

    I used to be able to take an IP address, like this 178.63.41.159:2491 from the Battlemetrics and paste it into the Direct Connect button and it would connect to the server. Now, nothing happens. I, literally, just tried it right now.

    Having that Direct Connect button was a godsend cos the launcher sucks so bad.

    Are there any plans to revert the infected back to being able to kill the player. It's been, what, a couple of years now since they were nerfed making them little better than pointless. They are supposed to be the main antagonist for the player to overcome in the game and yet they do nothing to the player but send them for a nap every now and then.

    They might as well not be in the game at all.

    I agree, but I also think they shouldn't always 100% aggro on the uncon player to kill him. I feel like there should be some (i just woke up and i'm missing a word here) that would determine wether or not they keep beating you to death.

    So let's say they uncon you, but another player is nearby or shooting or whatever. They should lose the aggro on you.
    And I also feel like they should have a random max number of attacks they do on you, ranging anywhere from several attacks to beating you till you die. Maybe they could still keep hitting you after you die - makes them seem more deranged and could ruin more of your gear.

    So there COULD be a chance there is only one zombie on you and you get lucky. It only hits you a few times after you go uncon and you live.

    Agro issues have been around since DayZ was in its infancy. It's always been a problem. For instance, I've lost count of how many times I've been fired at and the infected start chasing me instead of the guy that fired his pop gun. But I'll put this down to the infected just being, well, infected people and not exactly thinking straight.

    In any case, I don't think some dodgy aspects to infected agro should eliminate the fact that they should be able to kill the player. Having a RNG chance that they'll just beat the crap out of you and lose interest for another target is an ok idea. But that will never be implemented.

    But they really need to be a threat again. Otherwise they're pointless.

    Exactly. There is absolutely no reason DayZ couldn't run on Windows 7 for the rest of its life!

    And yes, it would have been nice to announce the termination of Windows 7 support in DayZ before. I knew that Steam drops support at the end of the year, but I really hoped I could play for some more weeks... 😒

    As Microsoft's plans with Windows are obviously going into the direction of SaaS and Windows365 crap I really hope that game publishers will finally wake up and switch to a friendlier gaming platform (like an open source OS).

    They day that MS switches to any kind of 365 bollocks for Windows is the day I stop using it.

    The main meaning is that according to the caliber of the weapon, each caliber creates a greater or lesser wound depending on the damage caused, be it knife, rifle, sniper, grenade, so when the player finds a dead player, analyze and deduce which weapon was used. and kill another player near that area, he can deduce according to the caliber that was used on the deceased that it was the player who killed the corpse found.

     

     

    The existence of burns on the dead player demonstrates that the wound was caused by shots at close range, ruling out the possibility of being a sniper, do you understand the level of realism I want to reach?

    There's no "realism" is any part of DayZ.

    Haven't played the game well for a long time, but if it's true that the durability is even worse than before  then oh my... It has always been way too low on everything even before any changes.

    It's worse than that. The infected don't even kill you any more.

    isnt that the point. I keep play other games. Im trying to say that the game need more action. The most part of the time is run on forest. Even tisy and vybor is booring, too easy and no players there.

    That's the game.

    If you're not happy with that, don't play it.

    there's a general misconception that 308 and 7.62x54r are big calibers... they're not, in fact all calibers in unmodded dayz are small bore calibers!
    308 is actually the smallest round allowed to hunt the big 5 and only allowed in some countries, most countries requires bigger rounds.

     

    Perhaps. But, in game, when you shoot someone who's unarmed at point blank range with a Tundra, one would (at the very least) expect them to go down. Not just run off as if you gave them a love tap.

    And up til the last few days, I'd not seen that happen before in 9 years of playing the game.

    Bizarre stuff.
