Just looking for a small (2-3) group of people who enjoy playing DayZ Overwatch. Been playing the mod since its release, participate currently in a milsim unit. I have tactical knowledge and gameplay experience. Just looking to have some fun in DayZ, so please message if interested.

I'll send you an invite on Skype!

Hello everyone. My name is Howl (or that's my alias online), and I'm looking to gather some group members who are interested in playing DayZ. I've been playing DayZ since April of last year, so I definitely know the in's and out's of the mod. I'm primarily looking for people who want to have fun while playing, but don't mind getting serious when the situation arises. I have a lot of experience in Arma2, from playing ACE (Advanced Combat Environment) mod, which specializes in altering the game for a more realistic feel, and I love it when tactics and teamwork come together. Hopefully those of you that want to team up are interested in getting a unique survival experience when playing, because that's definitely what I enjoy the most while playing DayZ. If you're willing to play, message me on steam (My username is halex1316) or Skype (howlopendragon). Primarily looking for - 1. People who want to have fun while playing DayZ, but rise to the occasion when things don't go the best. 2. People who don't cuss a lot; being able to convey ideas without the use of swear words is a gift nowadays. 3. Experienced players, who don't need to be taught how to play :)

I gave you my beans for this, Jamie.

Yeah, it's been relocked. You can blacklist, or take whatever actions you need to. It's still locked.

The server has actually been unlocked now... Seeing as we have a camp there, I don't really want the server taken down, just the admins contacted and told they can't do that... However, if it continues to happen, I will ask that actions be taken. Thank you

US1061 GMT -5 1:54 A.M. Server Administrator('s): Not sure, but I believe his name is Jay. Ingame name is omgjay What happened: Everyone who was playing got booted from the server and then it was locked. Three people are currently in, of those I believe to be his friends. Evidence/Proof:

I'm not sure, because I doubt a DayZ update would prevent ACE Mod from being shown in Six Launcher, or any servers for that matter. There must be an issue with Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead's online feature at the moment. I don't think it will be for long. Maybe a few hours.

No, no, no you're not using logic. I want, when I see another player, to turn into a carebear and hug eachother until the end of time. I think you've misunderstood all of our intentions.

First of all, you quoted me, yet I didn't use the word punish in that particular post. I clearly said "discourage". Sure, I used it in my original post, but that's because you wanted to put players under unfair circumstances because they may have wanted to a.) get food b.) ammo c.) medical supplies d.) they were afraid e.)just felt like it. Not everyone just kills to get their murders up. I for one, only kill when I have a reason to - ie. I'm threatened or I need supplies. By the way, your analogy sucks.

You're not discouraging it, yet you want a huge horde of zombies to spawn around someone who just killed a player, and you want 75% of the zombies to go after the killer? Explain how that's not discouraging it.

I read the thread, and you're trying to discourage it. And there's enough risk reward, because if you shoot someone, you've got possibly his friends or other players nearby who are going to be curious as to what's going down in Cherno.

I'm sorry, but would people stop trying to work around the damn CORE of the mod? The only thing that makes this mod scary, is the player versus player. If everyone was best friends, and we could all meet up in Chernogorsk and drive the party bus to the NW airfield and share the loot, while we all hold hands, there's really no difference between that and regular Arma 2, minus the loot lol. Zombies - - easily gotten around, however, if I go into a town and see zombies aggroed or zombies in general before I get 250m from it, then I know there's a player, and he probably has beans that I want. It's called survival - I don't have water, well I'm sure the player entering the school does. I'm sorry, but that's part of the game. If it weren't for other players, it would be no different than Left 4 Dead. Besides, it's the same thing as real life, except maybe a little less extreme in real life. You're not friends with everybody. You don't want to hang out, be buds with everybody, and people are douches. You meet up with someone, they realize you have a good gun, and dammit they want that gun. So they kill you. Was it worth risking it by TRYING to be friends? I don't think so. You can't trust anyone unless you've been with them for a while, or know them prior to playing the game, and that's almost certain. Now, not saying that that's completely true. For example, if someone is sitting on a hill in Stary, and I see them, they're most likely a threat.So, I'm not going to risk all of my good equipment running out into the open to greet him, and instead, get two bullets in the chest. I think I'll switch roles with him, and end up being the one alive. That's just the fact of a PvP survival game. This part of the game is necessary, and really the only way to avoid it, is for people to stop being so damn trigger happy. Rocket shouldn't PUNISH you for using a mechanic that he put into the game. Afterall, he made it that way for a reason. He made it so you could kill your best friend if you needed the beans and the canteens. If you needed to break their leg so you could escape the hord of zombies (The Walking Dead reference; Shane, you evil evil man). This is the reason it's so scary, and what sets it apart from most zombie survival games/mods.

I didn't see his name when I saw him, I saw "PeaC was killed." after putting 4 bullets into him. So maybe it wasn't you, but it seemed very coincidental that the server restarted at that moment. "The devs are busy finding hackers and setting up servers, they're not going to spend several hours searching through logs to get proof for you." I posted the time of the incident and the server that it happened on. I'm sure there won't be "hours searching through logs".
