Well when a server like this comes up, let us know. Otherwise, we're all still looking. We want custom weapons, not custom vehicles. Custom vehicles are being done on damn near every server, custom weapons are a different story.

Direct connect works, but not showing up on list. I'll figure it out when I get home. Wife says - Vehicles are not showing up or Motorcycles reset back to their old positions. One of the two has happened :P

Server down :(

Private Hives allow admins to do 100% more things then a normal admin can do. Private Hives can roll back a server to a past date if hackers get onto the server. They also have a lot more control over what the people can and can not do there. Some servers have a different theme or atmosphere that can not be accomplished on a normal hive. Private hives allow for more anti-cheat software to be run on them then you would find on any public hive (i've seen one that runs scripts to detect hacking that he himself wrote). New vehicles, more weapons, more things to do, private hives ARE better then public hive. I got sick of being nuked every thirty minutes so I went to the private hive side, haven't been disappointed yet.

My review of the server : Played here for about 8 hours, saw a few people and when it got dark the server died. No big deal, this is a norm for servers like this as people just don't want to play in the dark. I went up to the Northwest Airfield and began running around looking for what I could find. Gathered some decent gear but I was always plagued with a constant red chain and sometimes yellow chain. Sometimes this was because people were loading into the server, other times it just happened for no reason. There were times when I lost signal to the server but this happened maybe once, other times the server just stuttered. Community seemed pretty decent but the server isn't running on a 'server' computer and you can tell. It feels like it is running off a home PC that barely meets specs and the delay between kills and such shows it. I ran a constant 70 - 73 MS on the server and given the delay I experienced with that and the fact the server just seemed to run slowly, I moved on. All in all, small community of good people and a lot of vehicles for you to find if you want.

Just logged into the server and the server is connected to the main hive, it's not private. I'm not sure how you got side chat turned on, but this isn't a private hive so it's in the wrong forums.

^ This is the important part for me as well. What weapons are in this private hive? What vehicles are up? What's the population like? How many people during peak hours?

What weapons spawn on this server? (Disregard this question, saw it runs Bliss hive, not sure what that means but I assume it means as live) Is it 24 hour day? If you answered yes to the time question, count me out. Otherwise shoot me the password and i'll give it a chance if you would consider adding some weapon variety in the future.

Drakken as I have said in many other threads, does your server support new weapons? Custom ones? Meaning do you have weapons on your server not listed on the hive itself? My favorite weapon in Arma was the M16A2 203 and I wanna find a server with that on it.

Are there custom weapons here? Meaning weapons not listed in the DayZ DB? I'd like to find a server with different weapons / variety. Not wanting the TWS AS50 but... something, anything.

Does this server have new weapons in the database? I don't want anything overpowered as in AS50 TWS, i'm just looking for more variety then the normal hive servers can give me. Specifically looking for the M16A2 ACOG with M203.

What weapons are on the server at this time? Is it standard weapons or has there been anything new added?

Day Z Private Hive with custom weapons and a decent pop. Nothing overpowered, just some different weapons then you would normally find on a official hive server. Also would prefer it not be a freaking server you start off with a MK48 Mod 0 and every tool in the game. Specifically looking for an M16A2 ACOG 203.

There are private (White list) servers that don't require you to pay the admins to keep the server up. Try one of those, I see no 'list' of twitch gamers who are worth watching that are staying on this server. Oshi7 is not, DevilDogGamer is not, and Gumpenstein is not, therefore, no big name that i've heard of. Furthermore, I see no twitch gamers coming to this thread and supporting this server that they play on.

Does this server have custom weapons in it or does it have stock weapons normally found on other servers?

Why are you even in this forum? I mean, being a bandit for some of us means stalking someone, setting up the kill, working it to our advantage and then if / when we die learning from the experience. Why do you call yourself a bandit if the moment you get shot at you hit that macro you have which institutes an alt F4 and saves you because you were stupid? My most recent story of an Alt F4ilure. Snooping around at the NW airfield, had just satchel charged some poor tool who walked in (can't alt F4 from a satchel charge, asshole) and got C4 in the face, so decided to move around. Was headed to the southern barracks when I get the usual memory loss, FPS loss and aborted out to clear it. As I log back in, I immediately begin taking fire from somewhere I couldn't see. I assumed the guy was danger close because I was hearing the bang / snap within seconds of each other. I take off, full sprint into the woods and lucky for me the guys a terrible shot. I run out into the woods and spin around hoping he was following me. He wasn't so I decided to move in and see if I could catch him looking the other way. I slowly make my way up and after about 20 meters of move|scan|move|scan I catch him prone on the outside rooftop of the firehouse. I pull out my M107 and scope in, judge the shot to be 100 meters or so and fire, round goes low and hits the wall just in front of him (hindsight, should have ranged him then he wouldn't have lived). He doesn't even scan or try to find him me, he aborts out and runs for the hills. I know, beyond a doubt, this guy will go to another server and set up to pick up bad players all because he was able to abort out faster then I could get a second shot into him. I have -3 player kills on the 'I' menu right now because out of the 7 kills at the NW airfield: 2 were murders, 2 were shots I missed and regretted and 3 were people who hit the Alt F4 button and died but didn't leave a corpse (I confirmed one was a headshot, and still didn't give me a murder). Absolutely stupid, really stupid and hopefully Rocket can fix this issue very soon to make people who abort out of combat or alt F4 out of combat get some kind of penalty. So as I said at start if you abort out of a firefight or you Alt F4 out of combat or a death then you're not a bandit, you're a pretend bandit. Grow some sack, lose some gear, learn from your mistakes and until then get out of this forum. You haven't earned the right to be here, yet.

Why the hell would you donate for weapons? That's about the most retarded thing i've ever heard of.

You're probably coming into this thread thinking this is some whine about someone who dropped game after I shot at them or some such. Well, that's a bit far from the truth to be honest. I'm playing on the Survival Ops server, home of the UO crew and coincidentally the server DevilDogGamer plays on. I must confess that I do love his videos and enjoy listening to his team work so I decided to go to this 'private hive' and check things out. Day 1. Spawned in near Balota (absolute luck there) and the game is pitch black. I don't have a watch so I assume it's somewhere around 2 am. I make my way to the airfield and with the use of flares (I had nothing to lose, so why not?) I scout around the airfield itself hoping to find some equipment. Loot found : AK-74 Kobra / Magazines x 6 I moved to Chernogorsk as quick as possible because I really needed to get a compass and some other survival tools. As i'm moving to the town I found a survivor corpse on the road with the basic supplies you start with. This became a constant theme as I moved along and found various bodies in different states of gear, none with a weapon or anything that could be used as a weapon. I took the food he had on him and made my way to the market. Moving into the market it sounds like a graveyard, so without a care in the world I push in and scout around. Loot found : Box of Matches, Map, Watch, Alice Pack, Water Bottle (Empty) x 1, Water Bottle (Full) x 1, 6 Cans of Food (Various) 'I'm ready now. O.k, time to get the fuck out of here' I mumble these words to myself as I make my way north out of Chernogorsk, moving through the industrial complex as carefully as I can. Lots of zombies are roaming around and the number of them on this server leads me to believe absolutely everybody is in some town or another. This does not calm my nerves one bit, neither does coming across corpse after corpse in this hell hole. From the Market to the Apartment complex alone I came across seven corpses, some with weapons and some with not. Loot found : M1911 / Magazines x 4, Bandages x 4, Blood Bag, Painkillers x 2, Morphine x 2 (Going for hero skin, so took the blood) I'm at the apartments, the corpses have been non-stop all the way here. Here I am thinking life just could not get any better and oh look, another corpse. Loot found : CZ550 / Magazines x 3 After a lot of time spent playing inventory manager 2012 I manage to walk off with a good amount of food, water, supplies, both my rifles and a pack of chemlights. Completely foggy with what I have found I make my way out the north side of Chernogorsk, move along the road to an industrial, go into a room, lock the door and slump into the corner to get some sleep. What will day two hold?

Current equipment as of Sept 06, 2012 (12:06 EST) Night Vision Goggles Binoculars Primary Weapon : L85 AWS 30 Rd. STANAG x 9 Secondary Weapon : DMR DMR Mag x 3 All tools except : GPS, Radio (Won't be getting due to legit server spawns) 2 M67 Frag Grenades 1 Green Smoke Grenade 1 Blood Bag 2 Painkillers 2 Morphine Auto-Injectors 1 Heatpack 2 Cooked Meat 3 Water Bottle Side-arm : M9SD M9SD Mag. x 3

Day 3. I wake up with a start thinking that I heard something nearby and the L85 comes into my hands without a thought. A quick scan and yeah, there's a thermal signature over there... come here you son of a bi.... *sigh* damn rabbits. Oh well, at least i'm awake now, granted I think i've lost a few years of my life because of that damned rabbit. .... Sounds like a good time for breakfast. ___ After a breakfast of rabbit stew, some mushrooms, something that looked like carrots and some pasta I still had from Chernogorsk (last can, need to do a food run) I make my way from where I ended up last night. I know I wrote I would go to sleep outside Stary Sobor but I changed that up and moved north-west, way North-west. I'm up near Skalka mountain and my train of thought here was that I could sweep back down to the airfield and look for some more ammunition and maybe some more supplies. I make my way to the north-west and even though it's a little before four a.m. I don't dare let my guard down. Interesting. On my way to the Airfield I come across something in the old lumbermill on the east side of the road. Curiosity gets the better of me so of course I go to check it out after I do a quick thermal sweep of the wood-line to ensure i'm the only person out here. Thermals show negative so let's see what we have here : Loot found : Bus / Engine, Hull, Wheels (driver side missing two), Fuel Tank This old thing is in pretty bad shape, and I don't think I would feel very safe puttering around in a big rolling sign screaming shoot me. It's seen better days, so I think I will leave it to get some rest. If it's still here and I come across a few parts I will worry about it but for right now I will continue on. I'm traveling south down the main road from that lumbermill, there's a few areas I can check along the way to the airfield that may have a few parts I can ferry back but i'm not holding my breath. There's a large industrial area in Lopatino. It's my hope that i'll find something useful there and be able to bring it back. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to ride in this bus during the day time, but I could use it to move around quickly during the night. It's not a priority for me though so don't get your hopes up of your story teller running around in a travel guide bus. This is Chernarus, not a tourist attraction. I actually bypass Lopatino simply because after giving it some thought I just believe the bus would be more trouble then it's worth. Hiding it would be impossible and getting the parts for it would take the better part of the day especially since I am alone without a way to transport it around. If I find something smaller and less bulky I will take it but for now i'm just going to pass it up. On the dirt road heading east into the Airfield there's a deer stand I want to take a look at, still hoping for something useful but again not holding my breath. Loot found : STANAG magazine x 1, Bandage x 1 O.k. well not a total loss, some more ammunition which I will never turn down and a bandage in case I get hurt. I mean, i'm carry plenty of bandages on me as is but really you never know. I can always get rid of them if I need the room for more important things in the future. I'm moving into the south barracks area now, so here's to hoping I find something that will end up being useful. Loot found : DMR magazine x 1, Heatpack x 1, STANAG magazine x 5, Entrenching tool, Smoke Grenade x 1 (white), (Various food / water which I ate on the spot to keep food / drink levels high) Nothing really amazing came out of this airfield run, a lot of ammunition which what I spent was replaced with this. I actually left once I noticed there were people coming on, forgive me for being a coward but i'd rather be safe then sorry. The straight issue right now is that I am running low on sidearm and I still have not found a GPS which is a bit painful. If you're looking at this from a straight forward view you probably notice I pick up a lot of STANAG ammunition, it's not that I am hording it, it's just that I go through it quickly due to the huge amount of zombies I encounter. Mistakes happen, and they get wind of me with or without me hurrying through an area so it all gets replaced as I move along. The DMR ammunition on the other hand won't be gathered quite as much, I only carry three magazines on me at any given time, mainly because I know I can (swap to M24 and back) but I just won't be doing that. So far the really bad part has been the complete and utter lack of M9SD ammunition. I've found lots of ammo for everything else I have but the M9SD is going to be a problem. Ironic that i've actually found more MP5SD ammo then I have M9SD, you would think it would be the opposite but I guess it's easier to find assault rifle ammo then it is side arm. I actually stayed at the Airfield for a lot longer then I thought I would, nobody was around on the server so I took that time to gather what I could (about 2 hours actually). I knew once light hit it would be near impossible to come back up here and get anything due to there just being a lot more people moving about so I took the risk now and stayed. I want to make something perfectly clear to you dear reader, I have no intentions of going completely 'bandit' on this server. Mind you I do not find a problem with a person going 'bandit' but it's just not the style I want to do with this 'image of me'. The Survival ops server is a very hostile server and there are not many friendly people here mainly because as I mentioned in the first post on day 1 this is DevilDogGamers' home server. A lot of people play here simply to get a chance to shoot at an internet (Youtube) star. Out of all the encounters I have seen or heard about, 9/10 of them ended up with someone shooting at someone else or one person stalking another. I won't hesitate to defend myself, i'm not a pacifist or stupid but I will give a person every chance to leave me be and / or not start a firefight. So what it all boils down to is don't come here expecting stories of huge firefights and big throw downs in the middle of some random city. I am trying to stay alive, not build a reputation of being a bandit. With that said, at the end of every thread I will update my Debug monitor so you can see where I sit in zombies, players, bandit kills. Should give you an idea of how a 'hero' player makes it through the day. Not going to sleep just yet, I will continue to move around but I will update this if anything important happens that I think you should all know about. Zombies Killed : 174 Headshots : 118 Murders : 0 Bandits Killed : 0 (Note for future reference: Due to a server bug, I died. I just upped and died for no reason at all, middle of a field, nobody on the server. splat. Don't worry though, i'll keep on plugging and I am headed to get my gear since nobody is on yet.)

I thought it was him giving out some code in between every other word.

Day 2. I wake up finding that i've slept for a while and then wondering how someone did not break the door down and gut me. I've got work to do, so I push this out of my head and make my way north. Once again, it's pitch black but at least it is a full moon and I can see a little of what's around me. Remembering that the town to my south was the wild west and that there is probably going to be people there more then happy to remove all the equipment I have I make my way north towards Mogilevka. I know there's a good chance I will come across a downed chopper along the way and I can also make my way into Stary Sobor for the military spawns on the north side. I'm looking to replace the AK-74 Kobra with a M4A1 CCO because I prefer the CCO over the Kobra in tigher quarters. Loot found : Hunting Knife, Hatchet The military tents were a total bust and the only good thing that came out of it were some more supplies. Kinda disappointed in that so I make my way out the north end of Stary Sobor and think that it's probably a good idea to move to the Northwest Airfield and see what I can come across. As i'm moving out I notice off to my right a large light source in the treeline. "Ok, that's either some idiot who lit a fire, or it's a downed chopper. Let that please be a downed chopper." It's a downed chopper, my hearts pumping now. The server just reset not more then fourty-five minutes ago so there's a very good chance this is a fresh spawn. With fingers crossed and eyes wide open I creep up the chopper in hopes it will be worth my time. Loot found : Night Vision Goggles, L85 AWS / Magazines x 1 (SD), AS 50 / Magazines x 3 (Nato), Camo Skin I feel like a little kid who just found out where his family hid the candy in the kitchen cabinets. I'm practically bouncing in my chair but quickly pull my head out of my ass and get to the treeline. So my biggest issue is that the L85 has little ammunition, fair enough, i'm headed to the northwest airfield anyways. I'm ready to take on Chernarnus now, so I had to the Northwest airfield with renewed hope that things are going to turn out o.k. I move into the airfield, nobody else on the server except me and four other people but the zombie count is fairly high. I scan the airfield, nothing, alright... let's get to work. Loot found : DMR / Magazines x 2 (replaced the AS50, I prefer the DMR), STANAG magazines x 7, M67 Frag Grenade x 2, Coyote Backpack, M9SD / magazines x 3 Life is good, and I am out. I run like hell out the south wall directly south of the south barracks and play a little inventory management. I eat some of the cooked meat i'm carrying and shift ammo around to clear out the main and give me six slots to play with just in case. I'm in good hands as I make my way south of the airfield and into the fields... which i'm terrified of. I'm in open ground now and running like hell west of Vybor hoping to get clear of all this and the chance someone could pick me up out here. I know i'm not the only person on the server with NVG's, i'm not that naive. I think I am going to go to get some sleep in the woods to the north.

I admin on a sever that has a 600+ ban list. I know what it takes to ban a person from a server, apparently you do not or you would not be posting an entire log on the forum. This the cheat report forums, not the admin forums, therefore you continue to make yourself look stupid. These forums are here so people can post a report of a person cheating and what they saw happen, when, where and so forth. There is nothing in the description that specifically states that an admin is the only person who should be allowed here. In reply to Gogster, i'm done. Bravo. You've won sir, you won an arguement on the internet. Not because I was wrong and you were right, but because I won't be dragged into more troll debates by you. You're a troll, nothing more. You spam the F5 key praying that someone gave you the attention that you so desperately crave and when they do you write up ignorant things such as this. It's almost like you don't even think about things before you type them out and then act like you're not completely ignorant. I pity you, I really do. Enjoy your victory while I just ignore any further remarks or replies from you. I won't be dragged into a debate with a troll (you) again.

So you're saying it's the job of a mod to stay on the forum 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year and go through every single thread that may pop up, go through every line and clean up stupid shit people post? Wow.... seriously... just wow.
