What happened NY21??? Get off for a few hours and come back and its gone? Its almost been a day and no server!? All our hard work went into that server and its just gone? No heads up to move? I hope its just some technical issues and we didnt lose all our hard work.:huh::(

Well there was no heads up or anything it just disappeared!

Damn its been almost a week. There goes 4 atvs, 1 gaz, 1 motorcycle, 1 Offroad, 1 Ural, and 1 bus :/ Plus M4A1 CCO SD and a SVD CAMO :(

Same thing happens to me. I have 2 different characters. Different servers tend to load different characters :/

No thats a ammo box. Perfectly fine. Found one at a crashed heli with 10 SVD ammo 10 M24 and 10 DMR

Yea wheres the server at? :(

Yea thats a scripter. He needs banned

To make a hatchet a weapon. Right click it in your toolbelt and select remove from toolbelt. :P

Im pretty sure thats Shock

You need to find antibiotics. http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Antibiotics Good luck :D

"Optimist. Do you think he is going to stay alive very long when you don't let the game force him to learn how to do it on his own." I think he has a much better chance now... :D

Get a gun then go north.. But until the gun part go to cherno or elektro. Firestations in elektro, military tents in cherno. :D

That error is common man. Everyone gets it and its harmless. The no weapon thing is new too. He just changed the game recently so you don't spawn without a weapon to make the game a bit harder and more fun. :)

There you go :) 12k blood and an FN FAL ANPV to replace the crossbow of yours. Keep it safe :)

Alright whats your skype so we can get this done.

Ill help you... If you kill me I swear youll regret it though.

Wouldn't It be great to see another survivor loaded with stuff up north? He has those NVGS you want and a few other things. But you don't wanna be that guy who kills him and sends him all the way back south when all you need is a few things. How about some shotgun shells that are non-lethal just knock you out for say 2-3 minutes. The other guy can loot your body and leave without feeling bad about killing you! It would add a whole new type of combat to the game. Field medics could find a non-lethal gun and use it in defense when they need to. Some non-lethal weapons could be.. 1) Probably the most common thing thought of with this topic: A taser 2) Special rare shot gun shells for higher tier shotty. Flexible baton rounds, commonly called bean bags, fire a fabric bag filled with birdshot or a similar loose, dense substance. The 'punch' effect of the bag is useful for knocking down targets; the rounds are used by police to subdue violent suspects. How about the taser shotgun shell? :) 3)Maybe Make a special gun just for non-lethal situations that fires special ammo for incapacitating victims. 4) How about some pepper spray that causes a person to loose all visibility and control of their character for say thirty seconds. Imagine the fear on a person who gets everything stolen from them.. One second your owning everyone. The next your on the ground...No gun...No water...No Beans... Just like starting over except without the death part!

Setting all your settings to low puts everything on the processor. Your processor has a little bit of a slow clock speed but thats alright. First if you use the six launcher press options in the bottom right and add this to your additional startup parameters. Exactly like this without the quotations. "-nosplash -world=empty -maxmem=2047 -cpuCount=4 -exThreads=7" This gets rid of a few things that dont need to be loaded, makes sure it uses the maximum amount of ram, and properly uses all 4 cores. Okay next you want to mess around with the settings. Dont set everything to low. Make sure Vsync, postprocess, and shadows are off. For the rest of the settings here is a website that I used to get very very playable fps and the game still looks great! http://www.realitymod.com/forum/f440-pr-arma2-general-discussion/102496-arma2-oa-tweeks.html One thing that will really help with fps is the SceneComplexity lowering. In that article it shows you how to lower it down which will give a tremendous boost. Well for me it did. (It shows your towards the end and is relatively easy. Although you need something to edit the file to lower it so I recommend "Notepad++") http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ Easy to right click and edit tons of files. Hope this stuff helps you :)

Me and my friend were playing when we were just west of Stary Stobor. So we decided to check it out even though we were pretty good on gear.(Coming from the NWAF) Before we went in I used binoculars to check the area and saw a dead guy laying there. So I told him lets get in and out. I went straight for the body because it looked like it had a good gun. To my surprise I found an FN FAL ANPV S4! Then in the next tent I found a M9SD and and ALICE back pack. In the next tent I found an MP5SD. I threw the FAL in my backpack with its 2 clips and grabbed the MP5SD with 3 mags. I now have two silenced guns and a FNFAL with the optics. :D(Just need some blood and matches now...) Am I just lucky to find these guns? This is the best stuff I had besides the time I found a downed helicopter with a DMR and camo but the camo made me spawn in the ocean so I lost NVGS and the DMR but oh well.

Im not sure about the rate but me and a buddy were playing when he go infected so we went to cherno and check military aid tents and the hospital with no hope but we got enough blood packs to keep him up. We then ran over to Elektro and got into the hospital to find one pack of antibiotics. It may have been luck but I have seen them spawn 3 times before. That time being the only time needed. If you have some good stuff I would stick onto it and keep looking. Or just go drop somewhere you can maybe get back to fairly easy. :/ Goodluck man

Honestly I hated side chat. Being able to talk all throughout the huge map was ridiculous. Plus those annoying people who voice chat in it was horrible! The realism of side chat in this game doesn't make sense either. Plus seeing all the people typing "Friendly??? Ill shoot!" in side chat was stupid because you don't even know who the hell they are talking to. Side chat was left in the game until direct was working properly and it is now so side chat is gone...The way it should be.

So far I am loving this Update w/ Hotfix. It was really dark and I ran into 3 survivors who just spawned (not all at the same time) and I grouped up with them and protected them in this building from zombies. Spawning without a weapon makes approaching newly spawned survivors less a threat when you have a lot of harder to get stuff. Good job Rocket :)
