This is the General DayZ topic section, not the troubleshooting section and yet when you scroll through the threads 99% of them are complaints about servers down, missing items, wipes, broken mechanics etc etc. You can see just how bad this game is when you step out away from it for a while. Wake up, people.

====================================== 1.05 Patch notes Added ban list for community servers ====================================== Lol just as I expected. Too little too late. The snail's pace at which the devs work is way too slow. Expecting us to fund the game out of alpha for years and years. #fallof76 <------- that's BI and DayZ

Thanks for your input but I wouldn't be here making this thread had I not exhausted all options first. We have some bright people in our team and we already tried everything. Go get a 100 player server and see for yourself.

Not even frustrating just disappointing. Between the time I posted here yesterday and today the server has been restarting and going offline and that's with a fresh install and no players too. So it has nothing to do with traffic or anything I did in the settings because it's in it's default state lol!! The servers are just trash. The customer service is trash. (Go ahead try) The devs don't care. You can tell right away that the whole thing is budget when you get their app. Middle school-level design. 😁👍

We took it down as best we could. Deleted Discord, Facebook group etc. Reinstalled server and let it just sit there for remaining 2 weeks or so until expiry. Even in it's default, fresh install state it keeps restarting, stopping, idling at stopped, restarting etc. Maybe it's the 100 player servers with worse performance. Also, it's easy to comment for those who haven't experienced the issues we have (did) with 100 player slots. So glad it's gone tbh. All we did was pay $150 a month to act as customer service to our players every hour complaining the server is down. DayZ devs could easily get Nitrado to implement more tools for community servers. And if it's being worked on already - tell us. Instead they work on new content instead of fixing things. That, plus their silence on the community server issues tells me that they are content taking our money (well, your money) to finance said content. It's insulting. All good though cuz it's finished now! Phew!

They didn't warn us that the stability would be poor. They didn't warn us that they'd not try to improve the servers - instead opting to grab more cash with DLC. Your response was anticipated. Textbook NPC.

Clearly this person I've quoted has no idea what they're talking about. The server log is an atrocious and useless feature. We are talking big boy servers with 100 slots with heavy traffic. Good luck sifting through that.

Where to start with this..... Right from the start, Nitrado's apps are dog****. 1) You can tell right away when you use it that it's super basic. The functionality is poor. It looks and navigates like some a**hole coded it with an old lates 80s computer language. 2) Server admins CANNOT ADMIN ANYTHING!! As a server admin, all you can do is listen! Listen to reports of dupers that you can't do anything about. Listen to reports of the server being down. Every single day that's all I do is reply "sorry, looking into it" "sorry its up" "sorry its stuck in endless restart loop" "sorry I cant do anything" The log viewer is garbage which makes that feature useless. All admins can do is set the name of the server and change a few lame options. 3) Server stability is TRASH. Everyday. All we hear are reports asking why it's down. We can't even force a restart. If it's stuck restarting we have to just wait. Sometimes up to 8 hours. Unacceptable. We can't ask our player base (which we have a large one of) for donations because the server has so many issues. Why would anybody support our server? Got me thinking.....why am I supporting it? Love the game. Can't stand the company behind it. $150 a month. Yea, no more. Thanks but no thanks. It's principle. 🙂

When the monthly renewal comes up for our 100 slot server it will NOT be paid. Nitrado/DayZ devs are a complete joke. Great game (concept). Garbage companies behind it.

Changes like server name, day/night duration etc. and the config file changes won't show until you restart the server. Change 6.2 to 0 for longest days Change 1.7 to 64 for fastest nights There are threads for server messages (in config file). Uncheck the bottom option in server settings to be able to view logs. These logs will then be located on a log tab called DayZsomething. Again, server restarts required for most if not all changes.

Everybody, don't forget to save config file changes when the server is OFFLINE. https://twitter.com/DayZ/status/1164925680779452416?s=20

You have to save the config file when the server is OFFLINE. I totally forgot to add that to my "server messages simple" thread. https://twitter.com/DayZ/status/1164925680779452416?s=20

Yea we have a team who share it responsibility. You're welcome to join. It's open to public.

LOOTERz n SHOOTERz 24/7 NYC 100 slots public community Longest days/shortest nights Streamer-friendly No strict rules (how would the powerless admins deal with it anyway? We need more powers) Evolving server (again, we need more admin options to be able to mold it how we like) Discord/Facebook/Twitter Laid back admins Giveaways/Prizes (in future when we have more options) See you on the trails!

Yes. There might be a way to get the server messages to display this info but I'd have to look into it further. Sorry for the confusion.
