delete this thread plz

just trying to delete this thread but i dont know how lol

Yes please remove it or make a way to get around it. It doesn't block zombies and for all the people who say its for bases and crap, if someone wanted to kill you bad enough they would just server hop around it. People who just wanna search and get stuff and not server hop are forced to change to a different server that someone hasn't covered in barbed wire so we can actually search and have a fair shot. Barbed wire just doesn't do anything but annoy and slow down game play and break immersion because at least you could get around it in real life.

naw i just forgot to refresh the page before i responded to rakkeh lol sorry bout that. im noob when it comes to usin forums instead of just reading them

Ok I understand, yall want a hardcore zombie survival simulator, and that is absolutely fine, but shouldn't casual gamers and especially new players who need help at least have the option to use global chat on a server that allows it? I like the radio ideas too and just found out zombies cant run indoors so now I don't hafta just wait to die when they spot me. I might have learned that earlier had I been able to ask in game tho lol. Thank yall for putting up with my noob self and I'll get out yalls hair, I just hope I find someone on a server to talk to and team up with soon.

well then give people the option to turn it off, but don't ruin it for every body. And it is not server side for newer players, we got the crummy beta client which is the newest version and it does not allow global chat on any server.

ohh thank goodness, i was soo worried I thought this game just died. How long until they update and i can get the global chat option back for the servers that do allow it?

It is not. I got the beta client since I just got the game today. I do not have the option of selecting the cyan colored global chat. I only have vehicle, direct, and the green chat in every server I've tried.

Please, I am completely new to the game and I thought it would be fun because of the youtube videos and rave reviews and because i am tired of the standard fps. DayZ Is the only reason I even bought Arma II, instead when i join i must get killed over and over and over because i have no weapon and the searchable buildings are filled with zombies so how am i supposed to search? Sometimes I get repeatedly spawn killed on the coast by bandits for my few supplies i start with and i cant defend myself or ask for help. I cant ask for help because there isnt any global chat yet everyone else can use global. This makes it nearly impossible and incredibly boring to play. It literally brings tears to my eyes typing this and knowing i just wasted 30 bucks on this game I can never truly play while everyone else still gets to benefit from the old version :(. Just please bring back global chat so I can at least get help. Waiting 5 mins for the zombie that detected me to kill me and then another 5 for the hour glass is one thing but watching everyone chatting without me being able to reply is killing me. I understand you guys want realism but in a world this big you MUST keep the global chat open or when you update everybodys game, your gonna lose a lot of frustrated people.
