  1. Hi, Two questions: 1) Last night i found a tent in the supermarket in Cherno. When i walk to a open field and try to set up the tent it says something like "only on flat ground and away from objects". I tried hundreds of spots (all at level grounds, no montains or nearby objects) but the message keeps coming back. 2) When i set up the tent and dump a lot of my inventory in it, how long will it stay alive? What happens when a server restarts? Many thanks, J.
  2. 1) I noticed pictures of people "Sitting" at the campfire. How do yo exactly sit down? (whick key) 2) I noticed a lot of carparts scattered all around the map. Are the carparts you find universal and do they fit on any car? 3) How do I exectly fit some carparts? 4) I noticed a lot of comments about "Tents". I scavenged around 30% of the map but couldn't find a test. If they should be found, where should i look?
  3. Tested the 7.5 update 30 minutes: - So far zombie movement/actions look good - No FPS drops when zombies are around Tomorrow evening i will be able to test more.
  4. Before i start; Thanks for the update rocket! Keep going on with the good work! My first test results: - Sometimes it is impossible to swing with the new hatchet (still you see yourself carrying it with your hands) - I often hear flies but no body around - Zombies can see trough walls. When i get up in a closed house and walk normally (no sprint) the zombies gets alerted. - When entering a building while crouching, the player gets up automatically causing all the nearby zombies to alarm. - I think the sneaking became too noisy/visible. When doing this in grass, it now alerts every zombie from a mile far. This causes players to cwarl almost 100% when in or nearby a city.
  5. Hi, I think one of the biggest reason people will not rent or host a dedicated server is the fact that there are a lot of costs but almost not a single advantage for the admin. It is known that the is a lack of real fast and good servers. Once a server is known to be very good it is populated 50/50 all the time! Why would i buy a fast dedicated server and co-locate it somewhere if i don't even have the ability to play on it? I.m.h.o there should be something like an extra 3/4/5 slots availible for admins if the server reaches it's max capicity.

    Master Computer just to use

    I play this Arma2 and DayZ on 1080p with max detail on: Intel Ivy Bridge i5 3570 quad core AMD Radeon HD 7850 Nothing overclocked, got 60FPS and works perfectly.
  7. I've been playing this mod now for one day. I'm not disappointed but i have to say that some things should change. - I dont care to start off without a gun, but my problem is that it is too hard finding a gun. To get one, you have to get to big cities like Cherno or Elektro which are packed with loads of uberzombies which cannot be outrun or whatsoever. - I tried surviving more in the woods and trying to loot in small places more centralized on the map. The problem in this area is that there are simply no guns in that area whatsoever. My biggest problem: Due to the serious lack of food, drinks and guns all players will hunt down eachother instead of combining their power versus the zombies or bandits. Today i tried finding food/drinks for 4 hours and all my unarmed life saw was empty soda cans and empty bottles. I've noticed the fact that you are able to make a fire and noticed the fact that you can hunt for food (at least that's what i think the hunting knife is for) but due to the fact that food is so immensely scarce every player on the map will shoot other players... and this is not because they like to do so but just simply because they 'hope' you carry some food (and usually when you get shot you have nothing at all...) I think the main problem is that there are too less 'food' and weapon resources. Due to the lack of resources, people will just shoot anyone on sight simply because they have to survive and they dont want to take the risk getting shot themselves. Because of this Teamplay is no option. Surviving is so hard that all other things like repairing a car, creating a fire, use matches, chop wood or anything else is completely unimportant and gets no attention at all. Just my 2 cents.
