Public server, EU. Low-pop during down-time, high-pop in evenings and weekends.
-
If they are brought to another server then they are not a part of the CLE on the server they left from anymore and it would spawn another one - that is not happening at the tier 4 military locations right now (you gotta be extremely lucky and probably be loot-cycling to do it...).
-
Exactly. I am not expecting it to be easy to find myself an AR, but i DO expect _some sort_ of weapons to spawn at the highest tiered military base (tier 4) after taking the chance to search it all through by myself on three separate occasions - at least an AK74 or whatever, but I got nothing (not even smg's or sk's as they are tier 1, 2 and 3 and tiny is tier 4). Right now I guess helicopter-hunting is the best way to get something if anything at all.
-
That is a whole other situation then the public servers or the high-pop (big slotted) private servers which I guess these threads are about. I ran through half of VMC on a private server an hour ago and found 1 AKM and 1 M4 - but what is the fun in that if there aint other people around to play with? And on the public server I usually play on I ran through Tisy THREE times over two days and I found exactly ZERO weapons of any kind. Lots of ammo and mags for all the high-tier weapons, good clothing, vests and helmets plus accessories - but no weapons _at all_.
-
Well, I ran through Tisy 3 times in 2 days (at times when there was very few people on the server so I could have it for myself) and I found _exactly_ zero weapons. None at all - not even SKS' as apparently they are tier 3 and Tisy is tier 4 and all the AK74s, AKMs and M4s have been looted up so the CLE dont spawn any new until they are de spawned somehow or gone to another server.
-
I checked through Tisy 4 times (all of it) in the last 3 days, and I found _zero_ guns of any kind. Lots of clothing, vests (plate carrier and tactical), helmets, ammo and mags - but _no_ guns of any kind.

Was attacked by 6-7 wolves together with a mate yesterday. Just ran into a solo one that gave up its chase on me. Pack-size seems to be a lot different from time to time. 🙂
-
Its a tier one location (or maximum level two if its a bit inland) if its near the coast, so it makes total sense that you won't find AK's and so on there - you have to travel way further inland for that and they are not meant to spawn near the coast at all.
-
Info about it can be found in the thread about the 1.04 update. 🙂
-
As far as know then changing the name and password of the server plus the night/day-intervals (and server-wipe) is pretty much the only thing server-owners can do right now. Its a bit of a joke...
-
I am not telling you what is happening for you specifically - I ain't there so I dont know what you done to get it or done to get rid of it and how. I am telling about a general bug that is flowing around. And you need to take a pill until it does not work anymore (that is way more then 30 seconds) and then keep doing it.
-
You drink ALOT faster from a pump now then you did before, maybe 10-20 times faster - so you get your stomach full _really_ fast, and the icon usually does not show up until a bit after you are full (just like your health-bar does not go read until about a second after you get shot) so when you see it it is usually already to late to stop drinking if you don't want to puke. They probably need to decrease the water-consumption when drinking from a pump, its way faster then drinking from a bottle or anything else.
-
Yeah, I just found one and it works fine when you just add a battery and look through it as you do with binoculars. What is the problem when you add them to a head-strap or the tac-helmet - are is it impossible to turn them on (and turning them on before combining them doesn't work either?)?
-
Can anybody tell me what tier military places the new weapons spawn at? In interested in how far inland you got to get to find them, and also how rare they are. Due to serious bad luck and helping some new mates out at the coastal area (and getting killed by inadequate team-mates twice and because of inadequate team-mates twice more the 4 times I actually made it inland...) I have not found any of them yet. Any thoughts about them so far?
-
Have you tried charcoal tablets? They are against stomach infections from eating bad food.
-
Thank you, just was I was looking for! 🙂

If you guys get sick without knowing why then here is the explanation: Rags now gives an infection when used to close wounds (bandages should not as they are sterile), and that gives you the infection - tetracycline fixes it though,you might need to take several after each other, let them one at a time and keep taking one more if you are still sick after its duration. You can disinfect the rags with alcohol solution and then they don't cause any infection - I tested it myself both with un-disinfected rags and disinfected rags. I've been reading a bit around and the sickness from it does not seem to actually do anything yet (I was running around with it for 1.5-2 hours yesterday without noticing anything else then the icon), we just get the sickness-icon in the corner, but no bad effects from it. It does make it impossible to see if you are getting sick from something else though, but it wont actually do anything negative - yet. Alcohol is easy to find though, and a bottle can sterilize 5 or 6 whole bundles of rags, each with 6 in them - so at least 30 rags pr bottle. 🙂

I know the different places to find the different tiers and been playing since DayZ came out in preview for Xbone, so all that ain't new to me -, what I am interested is what tiers the new weapons fall into. 🙂
-
That is the only real problem I've run into myself so far (there are a bunch of minors to, but those are ok with me so far), and it was also here in the last patch. And the first couple of days it was a pain in the rear having to leave the server and rejoin as they were all full and with a solid queue. Its better now that the rush have cooled off a bit, but still quite annoying.
-
I love 1P-servers too, but this constant talking down to the other side is a but waste of time in my mind - I prefer to just enjoy the choice I made and leave others to their and hope they enjoy theirs too. 🙂
-
I usually find shovels in every other train-carriage I go into, otherwise check industrial areas (garages and such). 🙂

Night time is so dark it's unplayable
Jonas Levin replied to Sil3nt's topic in New Player Discussion
I got no problem, maybe mess a bit with the gamma on your screen if you cant see anything. Any you might as well get used to it, its here to stay. Learn to cope with it and try to enjoy the added possibilities and fun situation that arises in the dark, that is your best choice as its here to stay. -
"DayZ development team in a nutshell"
Jonas Levin replied to Jake Blake's topic in New Player Discussion
I personally love the night-time and that people are forced to it unless they wanna get throw all over. Its a hardcore simulation-game, better get used to it. 🙂 -
I did the same day about 12 hours ago on 3897. 😛 First I beat a guy up and stole his Glock (apparently he did not know how to cock it, it had a mag with 9 bullet in it but none it the chamber), then I held another guy up for his shoes. First he dropped them like a good boy, but then he refused to run out into the night as I told him... So I gave him a clean headshot so he went unconscious and was way down in health, picked up the shoes, performed CPR and ran some circles around him and then ran off into the night with the shoes - I left him with his 4 bandages though, that's how nice a man I am lol. Gotta love all these mechanics, im especially loving that you can reload a mag just by holding it in your hand and holding Y so we dont have to open the inventory, find the right ammo, press B and then hold RT - its way better. The throwing function is sooooo good to, and vaulting is getting implemented in 1.05 which is awesome too. The anti-ghosting/server-jumping function is just perfect too, people actually stay on the servers for night-play now which I've always like but never been able to get the group to go along with. The game is back on its feet - with a vengeance! 🙂

Have the persistence on private servers been fixed yet? I wanna join one, but not if I lose my char every other hour...
