Chill out.

This is what happens when side/global chat are the only reliable forms of communication:

Post the facts or don't post at all. Closed.

Would it make you feel any better if I told you that I once started a thread almost exactly like this? A dev told me that the back story to this mod, which isn't public yet, does not allow for players coming back as zombies in any way, shape or form. http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=187 Yeah, it's a cool idea but it's not going to happen in this mod.

Ladders are dangerous in this game, it's an Arma thing, not a DayZ thing. Most ladders are ok, the ones going up into deer stands and guard towers can and will drop you unless you do as has been suggested. TIP: If you are careful you can climb to the top of a ladder in a deer stand and see what is in it without getting off the ladder. You can even add things to your inventory from there if you are careful. There have already been many threads on this topic. Here is the current live one: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=717&highlight=ladders Please post further thoughts and suggestions there. Closed.

No, no, no, NO. We put out this brush fire long ago. Take it up with Legion on their PM, email or boards. Fucking CLOSED.

It is now Joel, but these guys are right. For quite some time today the page was completely inaccessible. I figured maybe there was an update being added...

Meh, ye of small, narrow box... learn to think outside it! I don't know how many times I have to tell people this... remember, this mod is currently an "ALPHA" (that's pre-beta, pre, pre finished product) You wouldn't believe how much it's changed just in the last few weeks... and there are plenty more changes coming.

+1 this.

There is already a thread on this topic... somewhere... hmmm. Here it is: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1619 Please share your thoughts on that thread. Thanks. Closed.

dev has already stated that the "zombies" in DayZ are not dead. See link at the bottom of this post.

What's the specifics of your server(s) Mojo? 3rd person? crosshairs? nametags?

I've had mixed results. I think a lot depends on whether or not the server is patched up to the fixed version. I've also read in much older threads that it was using other channels that broke it. Spawn into a server, switch to direct chat and don't use any other channel (for voice or text). See if that works.

See what BattleEye thinks of it?

Not really sure. All I know is that the lead dev said "they are not dead." See the link in my signature below...

Thanks Oilman, appreciate the help ;) Closed.

Please take the five seconds it requires to see if there is a similar thread posted right below yours... maybe even the extra 30 seconds it takes to use that nifty "search" function at the top of the page? Here is the existing thread: http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=1528 Please take further replies there. Thanks. >Closed<

Also worry about the negative effect on server and stabliity You are a server host... is this the reason zombie counts have been so low lately? I know we had 1200+ zed at times early on in this mod. I also know that this mod was the first to actually pull it off with any sort of stability. Inquiring minds want to know?

Exactly. It wouldn't take many either! Even a few, even the potential threat of encountering a zombie in the woods (even if you never actually see any) could be a real game changer. Currently the wilderness is considered mostly safe. The player count is never so high that if you were careful about your route you could spend days walking around in the wilderness and never encounter another player face to face. Sprinkle a few zed over the entire map, especially at night and everything changes ;)

Closed but left as an example.

By his calculations a server with 1000 zombies on it means 5 per square km and if there are 4 square km per player then that means 20 zed per player. Don't worry about the map being so big it's boring. Worry about what you are going to do with 1000+ zombies on the map (again!) and some of them in the woods...

If this turns into yet another PVP sissy fight I'll slap a padlock on it so fast it will make your head spin.
