My main issue with this idea is that the new spawn would then have virtually nothing to fear and this I think would ruin the atmosphere. Imagine the scene where every new spawn is running around cherno and electro free from concerns about other players and with the current zombie mechanics not concerned about them either. This would not be DayZ to me it’d be like one big episode of supermarket sweep, people sprinting as fast as they can, in the open, from firestation to supermarket grabbing as much stuff as they can before their invincibility timer runs out. Now imagine you’ve parked a car to loot a building or whatever and you see a new spawn running to steal your car. You’re now impotent to stop this. Or a server restart spawns a chopper between cherno and elektro... The problems this idea creates (to me at least) seem worse than the problem it aims solves.

Generally that is it yeah. Most regular survivors are less likely to KoS you, bandits however are likely to go out of there way to get you.

I am well aware of the status of the mod. My point is that we as players should be grateful for the product he has given us free, and not begrudge the man a holiday and amazing experience just because it means the update is a bit delayed. I am in no doubt that the Dayz project has given him endless stress and heartache is it really any wonder he would rather not cancel a 100k$ trip that'll give him some time and space to get his head together and no doubt stop him from loosing heart in the project. I know that these attitudes of entitlement and spitting out rhetoric about how Rocket owes us something for nothing would certainly make me loose heart if I was heading the project. Updates for the Mod will come, the SA will come. I'd rather them take their time and be in it for the long haul, than be hitting the code 24/7 and get burnt out.

So an update for a free alpa test mod of a shooter from years ago will be released a bit later than it could be, I wouldn't ditch a 100k trip to Everest for that, I don't see why Rocket should. How you can believe you're entitled to make demands of him - even if they're rhetoric - for a product you have not paid a penny for is beyond me. Mod updates and the SA will come, in the mean time chill out and cut the guy some slack.

my home server usually gives me about 150 ping, I don't really notice any issues.

and hope/pray that you don't get glitch killed each time you climb out of the thing.

The only time I hunt players is when I'm away from my home server. So I usually seek out an Enfield and then get to work. Not on the Hive long enough to waste time looking for military gear. ...but then I am far from a career bandit.

How much money did Rocket charge you for his Mod!? Nothing. How much money have you already paid for SA!? Nothing. So what does Rocket owe you? Nothing. SA will be finished when it is finished, updates for the mod will come when they are ready. Why should he miss out on an experience of a life time just because people to whom he owes nothing are whining. He shouldn't.

Is the server offline now?? or down for upgrades or what? :(

Spawn with 1 bandage. Nothing else. No guns, no melee, no back pack, no other medical items, no food, no water. This would be my ideal.

I think these are horrible ideas that completely go against the principles of dayz. You want to keep your loot forever? Go play a different game. Loot is fleeting. Lives come and go. Such is DayZ. Tents are a perfectly suitable and balanced way of storing gear and if your tents are really being raided constantly then you're obviously not setting them up in sensible positions, but yes loosing a certain amount of loot through raided tents is inevitable and it should be. Maybe you should try keeping lots of single tents in different locations rather than a single camp, this has worked for me and ensured that no lose is ever too great. But running no risk at all!? That is not what the game is about, and not even close to balanced.

Less pvp and less zombies? What would that leave? So you want an item management game? On a serious note, maybe you should have a look at some of the RP servers maybe?

Hey man, I'm uk based and on most evenings (usually between 8pm-1am GMT). I'm 25, been playing a while, but far from amazing. If you want to play at any point, add me on skype? skype= JackTurb0

I think what you want is to horde all the best resources on the server using your ‘magic invisible admin barrier of protection’. Rather than using your cunning, setting up a proper camp and spending time hiding it in a strategic spot like anyone who really plays the game, you’re trying to force the game into being exactly how you see fit using external scripts and blatant admin abuse with no thought about the average player on your server. …that’s what I think at least.

Hey man, I'm uk based and on most evenings (usually between 8pm-1am GMT). I'm 25 and do have a home server but would be happy to play on another. If you want to play at any point, add me on skype? skype= JackTurb0

That did the trick and I was happily playing away earlier

Starting getting this "bad version server rejected connection" when ever I try and join, had been playing on it fine for the past week or so before. Also seem to join other severs fine no problem. Wondered if you guys might have an idea? I use commander, if it makes any real difference?

This sever is now my main haunt, I used to bump about between a handful of servers based on ping. Now I don't even look at other servers when I'm soloing. Had a great time last night, and sorry to the guy who was in my little bird when I crashed it haha.

I've started playing this server on the reg, when ever I'm soloing (when buddies aren't online). I'll happily run you through the basics of scavenging, dealing with zombies and that sort of thing. Feel free to Skype me Skype= Jackturb0

Hey man, I'm uk based and on most evenings (usually between 8pm-1am GMT). I'm 25 and mostly enjoy scavenging (not too into the pvp, but I will when I have to). I dont tend to Shoot on sight, which does seem to lead to me respawning fairly regularly, but I'm ok with that. If you want to play at any point, add me on skype? skype= JackTurb0 Peace

I've just accepted that at any moment any item I have could disappear.

Had a play on this server it's pretty fun. West Kamenka was a cool idea like that a lot.

Sounds like a nice I idea. I tried helping out newer players recently. Stocked up a big bag with pistols and ammo and headed to the south west coast to hand them out to newbies. The second one shot me in the back as we parted ways. Hope you guys have a better run than I did haha. Best of luck to you all

I'm Uk based, anyone feel free to add me on steam spangley_special or skype jackturb0

wouldnt need a message to all just a plane flying across the map and dropping would be enough alert to those vaguely near by (I'm assuming that Arma already has the resources for this, I dunno I dont play the regular game)
