Hmm a camo suit isnt lootable, so he couldnt wear it again. You think he got 2 or ...

Everyone knows it everyone done it noone was it ;) Here is the solution: just a quick implemented timer. If you connected to a server the first time your items get saved is after 10-20 mins. I mean not your life status and used items. After the first item save after that amount of time it saves as it is now, when you leave.

Yep i dont like make a suggestion i the middle of another thread with same problem but diffrent solution. How is the chance that you read my post in a thread with 30+ sites? If i go read a thread i read the first post, when i disagree i dont read on and maybe miss som good other solutions. But with thousands of threads i cant read anything... You dont like it? dont read and comment it?

Thats not on dayz, its arma. I know the engine since 10+ years, and a new arma is on the way too, so live with servers up to maybe 150 +/- 50 ppl but thats it.

but with only 50 slots and 400000 unique players what you do when the server is permanently full or empty? Think before suggest stupid things. for this problem you need other solutions. maybe loot what i got is saved after i played at least 20 min on the server, after 20 mins it get saved at it is now. (in my eyes this would solve the problem)

Why turrets, maybe hire some AI guard (1 per player), which you have to gear up on your own with ammo and gun and heal with your own supplies. maybe you need xx amount of food and water to spawn one for 12 hours then hes dies. (12h cooldown) But the problem is how the ai know who is friend and when i need to shoot if there are groups of players.

+1 for bad idea

no, use arma server browser and only launch with six. search for veteran servers with: 3dp:on ch:off / 3dp:off ch:off in their names. use browser filter to search for 1.7.1.5 or ch:off

it got 2 zooms, try press + on num

Yep there are thermal and nv scoped guns out there and most western military guns got laser sight when pressing L so you can fire from the hip

You need a map and a watch or better a map and a compass. Scout for landmarks and navigate with map. I never woul go on non veteran servers, because of the map helps and crosshairs. Imagine if you face a sniper with a m107, m24 whatever and you got a ironsight gun, and its a server with crosshairs on then the sniper guns work very well in close quarter fights because of it. So the whole weapon balance is fucked up. The game is much more immersive on veteran servers with no crosshair.

i agree it should not be possible to disable them completly

Arma has a realistic sun, moon and star cycle per anno. With pitch black moonless nights to bright full moon nights. The time for raising sun depends on the ingame date then. AND the server admins decide if day or night...

bizon sd is so much better than the m4sd and you can find it on crashsites

trust me

-Go daylight full server (they can see you you can see them, night youre fucked against night vision googles its more luck then) -take southwest barracks (much better cover) -observe airport for a while from a hill hiding in a tree (binocs, hear for gunfire) -going in trough the woods -sneak up from tanned tree which provides soft view cover to next -going between the building to barracks -clear building first before collect things (check all rooms close maindoor) -escape through woods fast but covered -go to overwatch position and log out for eat smoke whatever, later next try OR -fall back and go for helicopter crashsites (my fav)

If you die youre dead, thats the way how it works. I deal with it...

sry i quoted to late, its directly for the quote. i wouldnt go deeper there are maniacs out there they know how to use guns its the point.

There are enough mind broken people comming out of war even in europe. trust me they know how to operate a gun. Or in my country it was usual that EVERY male have to join the army, so i can say that near every male in my country is trained to kill people. including me

just another good mod for the best game series ever

i dont ;)

No' date=' it isn't. A competent player knows that you need to visit Elektro for medical supplies which is largely unobtainable anywhere else. Tell me how I should avoid a one-hit camping sniper, shooting newbies with torches: [/quote'] maybe check out area before going in, select save covered route to avoid line of sight to possible sniper locations and dont go on roofs (move with diffrent speeds zig zag in open field bla bla) As i said before, real military tactics works best here
