    Metanix - No unban !

    Go play on a different server! Seriously. There's literally hundreds available.

    Metanix.net Public Server - Ban

    Bohemia's rules are the rules. On the other hand, if someone pays for a server and want's to create a PvE world, let them. If the Server name says "FRIENDLY" then abide by that rule! Don't be a jackass and KOS on a server where players expect a peaceful environment. If you suspect the server is a lootfarm, report it. It's not like that is the only server. There are hundreds of other servers where KOS is allowed and even encourage. Or pay for your own server and make you're own rules.
  3. @emuthreat is probably one of the best guides in Chernarus I had the pleasure of running with as a new player. He's forever picking up strays(new players) and showing them around and even give guided tours around his very impressive camps. So I think there may be a misunderstanding at play here.
  4. Establish a small camp in the south-east quadrant and use that as a meeting point. Study the map, pick a spot and go from there. The more you run to camp from the coast the easier it will get. The problem with suicide until we meet is that you do not gather experience that way. It used to take me several sessions and hours to get to my camp. Now I can do that within an hour and I get there with a backpack full of stuff.
  5. I was doing some work yesterday and was watching my favourite streamer on my other monitor. This was for about an hour. He was very focused and coordinated in the beginning but as the time progressed you could see his focus was slipping and he was making mistakes. Several tents were pitched all over the base for no apparent reason. I knew it was all over when he randomly started chopping a tree down in the middle of Tisy base and then lost his prized Fireman's ax after attacking a Z. He ran over the ax at least twice without noticing it. A long wooden stick in it's place on his pack. A classic rookie survivor mistake (Remember kids, always check for wooden sticks on your back after chopping a tree down) Soon after that, while running around with a truck battery(??) he was attacked and shot down before he could even get his FAL in hand to defend himself. A tragic and unnecessary death of a great survivor if you ask. Al of this could have been prevented if we kept the beer drinking restricted to camp. So let this be a warning kids, do not temp fate by running around in Chernarus under the influence. We lost a great one yesterday. RIP my friend.

    Dev's work Hard on the vehicles pleas thx....

    Known issue. And as Orlok said, the dev's are working on the vehicles. They just did not get it done in the 2 hours since your demand. It will probably take a tad more time.

    Fire stations

    Do you mean West of Sverograd? I agree and make the NorthWesterners pay more taxes to fund it! Never mind, they are all super lazy and infected.

    TAKING IN CHERANUS 0.60

    Really well done! @Harold Palmer Great Job.
  9. Sad news! But I do understand. I have been unable to play due to work/family etc. And then my PC crapped out. I have a new mobo and will get that in in a few weeks. My guess is I will start playing when the server gets back ;-) Hopefully before that though. With winter coming I will have more time available. Thank you(@eno, @schwaBAM) for the server! And Thank you @emuthreat for letting me run with you and showing me some neat stuff! (Googlebot)

    "Bumblebee" PLANE: Specs & Discussion

    Will you be able to drop grenades out of it?
  11. Replied to an Old post. Still my home server though ;-) Some jackass did murder me in a helicopter Wednesday for no reason! I will find you son!
  12. I've been all in on AMD for 16 years now. No breakages, no issues. My current setup R9 280X and AMD 8350 runs dayz smooth as silk And when I'm not playing they fold for cures at Folding@home. So my all AMD machine practically runs 24/7 at full blast with no issues. This current setup (R9 280X and AMD 8350) has been running like this since 05/2014. I did replace the stock fan on the CPU and a couple of case fans. So S3V3N i can highly recommend AMD because of my experiences. And you get more bang for your buck. Finances permitting I will upgrade to the new generation of AMD GPU's, by then the full line-ups will be available and the problems sorted out.

    How was your Day(Z)?

    I played .60 stable for the first time last night ( I did play experimental .60). Spawned in close to Kamenka. Started looting through Kamenka and then ran to Komarovo and found enough canned food and soda to silence my grumbling belly. Not too much, just enough to take the orange away. Finding clothing, weapons and ammo was fairly easy, matching weapons to ammo is a different story! I found a MP5 and a RAK in the police station but no clips for either. I do have 9mm, shotgun and 5.56 ammo. Down by the buildings on the docks Komarovo I found an offroad hatchback with 1 wheel missing. A third wheel was in the trunk and I saw one in a shed. I got the offroad on the road to Pavlovo. Just past the gate to the military base I decided to call it quits and drove into the woods to hide the hatchback. Bad call. This morning I had a half hour to myself end logged in to see if I could drive to the Myshkino tents to make life easier when I play again, but my vehicle was gone. Server or thief? Oh well, the thing was a bitch to drive anyway. My aim now is to see if I can get hunting and fishing. Twice I saw deer and I'm eager to bag one. It was fun as usual.

    Played .60 now I have many questions

    The changes is what keeps me interested in the game. The only other game I was ever hooked on was Warcraft. (not WoW! that is garbage!) Once Dayz hits stable and no new stuff happens I will probably get tired of it and stop playing. Embrace the changes! @NewPlayer80If what you say is true(brain injury and struggling financially) pm me and I will refund your $30 and you keep your steam and Dayz. Good luck man. Edit: Finally figured out the @ player tag!
  15. Yeah I lost a barrel I had south of Vybor due to the glitch. Being a drifter living off of what I can carry, that is no big deal. I'm an opportunistic hoarder. If I find a barrel, tent or car I will use it and place it just to make life easy if I have to re-spawn. Thanks for notifying us!
  16. I don't have anything to trade at this moment but that's OK. My priced possesion is a VSS-ZH (Zomby Hunter :) ) and it's worth more than a car to me. My next mission is to go on a bus tour. So I'm going to start working on that. I will keep you posted. (My play time is fairly limited so it may take awhile)
  17. LOL. No I know this is how the game is played. It's what keeps things interesting. Thanks for the server though, I really enjoy playing on it.
  18. There was a note!!! I did not read it! (FacePalm) I have 600 hours of Dayz and have seen a lot of notes with nothing on it so I'm in the habit of ignoring them. I dropped the note, bones, guts and syringe and used the case. Dammit I can kick myself. The car was in the woods east of Pogorevka. I had it there for a while now. My in-game name is Googlebot btw.
  19. Someone found my car that was stuffed with goodies. They did leave me a small protective case full of guts, bandages and a full syringe. I went north and took my frustration out on the infected at the NWAF. Wrong thread :-) It was on the Helpy servers though.
  20. Found my new home! Thank you guys.

    Should I purchase DayZ: Standalone?

    The game is what you make of it. If you are the type that focus in the faults and glitches, don't waste money. If you are the type that can roll with the punches and take glitches in your stride, Dayz will be fun Every iteration of the game brings new challenges and new things to explore. Start by playing on a full night time server, dim the IRL lights and enjoy.

    DayZ SA Modding: A New Map

    New Map Idea: Walt Disney World Florida I know this is probably not feasible due to copyrights etc. but something in a themepark line. But the disney princesses will make great infected characters, not to mention Goofy and Mickey...

    Players not showing up in server

    For the in-game map to work you have to find a map first. Maps spawn in houses and buildings. (http://dayz.gamepedia.com/Map) I use this map "offline" : http://dayzdb.com/map/chernarusplus Their are a few others : http://dayzmap.com/and http://www.izurvive.com/ Once you are familiar with the map, navigation will be easier.

    Players not showing up in server

    The map is huge. Even if there are 50 players on the server you can run for hours before seeing them. It all depends on where you are. Go to Stary or Novy Sobor, Vybor and hang around in front of a police station. You will see at least one other player..... and then die :-). There are 5 (on quick count) lighthouses on the map. My advice is to figure out where you spawned by running to the nearest road sign. Then based on where buddy spawned find the midpoint between the two of you and then meet up. It will be at least 20 minutes depending on how far apart you spawned. Keep a map handy at all times during play and move inland as soon as possible! Also assume other players are hostile. Good luck! It is a lot of fun, not easy... but fun.

    This is my rig.......

    Take a look at DCTT. It helps a lot in simplifying the config for you. Link: DayZ Config Tweak Tool thread
