By the statements you've made, you don't have a clue to what you bought into. Also have no idea of the differences between the Mod(Arma2) and SA engine and what has been done. May I suggest reading/playing more to educate yourself on those differences.

Welcome to the Forums and DayZ SA mate! Always good to see fresh meat. Errr new players and forums members!

That's a definite beater if I've ever seen one. :lol:

Removing the Zeds is NOT an option. This is a silly statement and it seems to only come from the people who just want DayZ strictly PvP. That's not what the game is and not what DayZ will be, it will have Zeds and a lot more of them. If you want no Zeds go play Arma 3 or some shit. I really have no idea why people would buy and play DayZ not wanting Zeds in the game. Maybe to shoot people in the face unhindered? Pfft.

I think you're missing my point... I'm not saying make Zeds stronger than human players because they will never be, being mindless infected. They should however be a threat, far more than they are now. PvP should be a conscious decision based on a multitude of things, Zeds being one of them and scarcity of ammo/supplies being another. You should not be able to run into a town and do circles around Zeds shooting any other players in sight without consequence or do the same while collecting gear... It all comes down to Risk VS. Reward. Again, am I saying do away with PvP? NO, far from it. A lot of people confuse mindless KOS with proper/tactical PvP and I'm all for the latter. Either way the mindless KOS will be made as a conscious decision that may most likely result in demise if not extremely careful.

We choose on our own accord to buy/run a server, nobody is putting a gun to our head or expecting it... And... Oh yeah... Alpha!

Having no Hunger or Thirst indicators in your inventory screen should mean that you are regenerating blood over time. Maintain those hunger/thirst levels and you will consistently regen blood over time, not sure how long the time period is but you will regen none the less.

I brought up the fact in another post that these are not actual Zeds like the movies but infected people. In saying that, being infected could logically give them the ability to take more damage and give more damage. If someone on ICE, Meth or insert hardcore drug here, can take multiple body shots and have almost super human strength. Why can't an infected? I do agree with having more of them as well. Yes I am all for difficulty and if you went to my Mod server you would know how I want Zeds to be. Tough, Hit hard and lots more of them. ;) As they are now... One shot kills is a bit of a joke(I know Alpha) and is subject to change but Zeds really need to be hardcore NOT an after thought.

Zeds should be an absolute threat, hit hard, die hard and a complete pain in the ass. This is in fact a Horror Survival Game and Zeds need to be at the forefront, not a minor annoyance like the Mod. Am I saying get rid of PvP? Of course not, but with Zeds being the way they should be I think the KOS mentality will be diminished. Obviously there is a difference in KOS and proper PvP, well imo there is. Should they be headshot only? No. They should take a few body shots(3,4 maybe 5) and a headshot will kill it instantly. With the Zeds being an actual threat people will have to consciously think about wasting those bullets killing other players on a whim. "Should I take that shot and risk being killed by zeds?" I have faith in Rocket and the Devs to make Zeds the way they're supposed to be, we'll just have to wait and see.

It's early Alpha this is to be expected no matter which server you go to.

Desync, it happens. Also when a server restart happens, you may log back in at a place you were several minutes before the restart.

Just to chime in here... I have had no reports as of yet of this happening on HIHB. Not that we could stop it at the moment if it did, but if I have any reports I will post up.

The sub plan that goes with those MMO's is not for DayZ but I do think something needs to be done about server hoppers. Locked to one server maybe after a certain amount of time is played with that toon(character). Spawn on the coast play for 10mins(or a time within reason) and decide to hop off, fair enough. Spawn in as a fresh spawn take the time to gear yourself to the hilt, locked to that server. Is this technically feasible? I'm not sure but server hopping has to be dealt with in some fashion.

To troll, apparently... Seems that is what piffkush is good at. ;)

Heh, no worries. I really wish they would fix this soon and may anytime now. I have reset the server this morning and went in and it was daytime, will have to test further but I am hopeful. ;)

At the moment we all HAVE to use the Official Hive... There are no private hives and we most likely won't see them for awhile.

The Daylight servers are only because server hosters are having trouble with setting the server box's GMT properly(mine is anyway). Being in Sydney I would like it to be Daytime in the Day and so on. Right now if I set the server to Local Machine Time it is night time when it should be day time. Hoping they fix it soon because I for one abhor 24/7 day time servers and don't want to be one of them. The night adds to the experience and it does look better than in the mod People saying it looks like ass when you turn the gamma and brightness up(which there have been quite a few) I have to laugh at because if it looks like ass it's to discourage you from doing it. It shouldn't look pretty when you resort to turning up the gamma and brightness just because you can't cope with the night.

I say, spawn anywhere on the map that is relatively far from any type of hotspots. This will ensure; most of the time; that you will not be shot at spawn. Having it random throughout the map shouldn't be an issue and tbh disorientation is part of the game and would be enhanced with random spawn around the whole map not just the coast.

There was a Twitter feed on the subject and it did say disabling the clouds would fix it, so not a troll. In saying that, someone also said that disabling the clouds messed up seeing at night so it's worse. I haven't personally tried this but I do get the stutter every 30 seconds to a minute. Will try it today and edit this post.

Seems that you just want the attention of your own thread rather than use the forums properly and not post multiple threads on the same subject... Plenty of threads on the subject that you could be posting in. Why clutter up the forums with redundant BS? If you post in the proper thread it would be bumped to the front page, maybe you don't know how to use the search function or are just too lazy to read through the forums properly. Enough said.

This is just like beating a dead horse *facepalm*

No we cannot; at this time; have private hive servers. It has been discussed for us to have them in the future but may be a long way away.

It's because this thread is the same as the other 10 threads on the same subject. Use the search function before posting, or post in those threads. my god!
