Delta (DayZ)

Over 1million players for a mod in this short time.. You should buy it and take part in the hell that is dayz.. There is no other game like this out there.. And its nice to be part of a game in process with new things added all the time.. Arma II is also a very good game itself

Wait for Arma III theres underwater gameplay with shipwrecks and sealife..

Everyone has to log of somewhere for the night.. The world is big but not that big if servers will have 200 players later down the road as rocket talk about.. there will be many times a player spawn close too you without you noticing it.. Surely you dont want to be killed by a guy just randomly spawning close getting a easy kill and your maybe being very cautiously..(on purpose or not)

Since this patch will fix(try to fix) the server jumping.. Just watched a stream on twitch 3 people teaming then suddenly 2 guys spawns 20 meters from them and kills them.. thought of what about making so that if a person spawn very close to another he is moved 500 - 1000m away from the other person.(even if its not on purpose) Not sure if this would work very good ingame though.. (Would have to spawn him in tree lines, not in the open/water, not close to zombies and a cliff and fall to his death etc..) Would also need to tell the difference between your friends and unknown players.. Or just a small subtle notification on both the player spawning and the player already in the game, if someone spawns very close.(a small unfamiliar sound or animation on the guy turning his head sideways for 2 sec looking around or similar) Would have to be something subtle, you dont notice too much that breaks the ingame feeling.. I think this would be easier and also work better ingame then the first suggestion.. Probably alot of other different ways to implement some sort of notification of players spawning very close on purpose or not.. Only for close spawns ofc not players already in the game

What`s your idea/plan to make people communicate more in this game? (Right now everyone just shoot on sight 99% of the time) It needs some kind of consequences for murdering people. Right now you only benefit by killing people, not the other way around.. Being a good guy dont give you any benefits at all. only a bullet between your eyes.. The moral choices you make should have a bigger impact towards yourself and other people you meet

Calm down everybody.. shit happens.. just wait it out.. real life can be fun sometimes too belive it or not.. get out instead of sitting inside F5'ing all night

Been having the same problem.. Tent placement: As of now the tent placement seems to be very bugged. Though, the following steps seem to fix most of these problems: Crouch and enter first person view, look at the ground ahead of you, press G to open your gear and try to place the tent. It wont work the first time, so move back a little step using your S key and try again while your gear window is still open. Try this like 5-10 times, works! It is possible to place tents very close to trees, even under them, also, the area doesn't have to be perfectly flat

Question: Can you put empty/full backpacks inside tents? After playing for awhile now i haven`t really messed around with tents very much. But now that i got pretty good equipment and some extra guns in my car. I usally put the good stuff inside the tent and go newb into the big towns(cherno,electro,stary,berenzino and ofc NWAF) with just a decent gun and empty backpack.. And can i have more then one tent(on same server) Thx in advance..

Oki think im gonna just put the items and the bag separate until it gets fixed properly

So what your saying is that 1 full backpack is actually only one item/spot in the tents right? Yeah never trust server restart right :) I mostly gonna use it for clearing towns instead of bringing a sniper into town where i don`t need it.

Hehe yeah I know but thx anyway :) just found the answer to my own question on dayzwiki. posting if anyone else is wondering : A tent can hold up to five backpacks, ten weapons & tools and fifty general items... Thats alot! :o For example one tent can hold five binoculars, five M4A1s, fourty STANAG mags, ten engine parts and five backpacks at the same time. If you place a filled backpack into the tent, the contents of the backpack will remain.

Thx for the fast reply gonna try this out right now.. Putting my coyotebackpack and DMR in tent and going in with a akm instead in cherno.. But still can i put a full backpack in tent right? Do anyone know of a site you can see how much space/slots a tent is btw..

Thought this was fixed in 1.7.2.3.. [FIXED] Ghillie and skin removal on login

Throwing empty cans & bottles seems like it could need some tweaking later.. (I haven`t really used them much earlier but since the latest patch now that the zombies are more alert they come in handy) I always have 2-3 cans when going through a city.. They work pretty well most of the time, but sometime the Zombies don`t react at all when i throw close to them.. Since i can hear the sound where i am standing, they should hear it too right? :) What about making a small animation where you can knock on walls maybe.. Would be great to clearing houses with zombies when you have no equipment.

Sooo.. anyone found a bear trap yet? :)

Anyone have a link i can download 94876?? instead of 94945..(Heard you het stuck on loading screen on that patch) i am trying to download the zip.file from http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php/ but nothing happens.. thx in advance Thx Cyanyde didnt see your post there

Im buying Arma lll when it comes out, but for those who don`t buy it, this mod will probably be playable on Arma ll after Arma lll is out..

I havent read through this whole thread, but i hope they took it out on purpose.. thermal sight doesnt belong in this game.. I havent found one and i hope i never will. I watched some streams on twitch.tv with people playing with this gun. Do a 360 swipe and your sure to spot everything living around you. Its cheathing and you dont need to try and change my mind thoose who dont agree with me. ok im out..

I`ll try this one out soon.. Just wondering.. if i make a new profile in arma 2 (where you create character) on main menu.. wouldnt that let me play this patch without loosing my gear on my other profile right? then i can play on my other(main) profile when things are a little more stable.

Oh my god its here people... it HEREEEE! :D now i just have to find me a bear trap...

Yeah fuck that + 2.. Just found me NVG`s too :).. But i also killed a guy spawning right infront of me completly random, out in the forest with FN FAL ANPV S4 on him yesterday. the strange thing was i could look through the scope without Nightvision, was jus like regular scope..(thought it was only Nightvision on this gun) :P It was sweet! But today its only nightvision on the scope.. strange :( They should make this gun able to toggle between regular/nightvision.. But anyway looking forward to the new patch.. keep upp the good work dayz team :)

It`s Alive! :D If Bohemia is involved, i think that`s a good thing as long as rocket is in charge of the project all the way.. One man alone cant feed all this people by himself. He gets more time to speak on the forum and thinking out new things to put in the game.. And since bohemia is involved they can probably implent/add new features in arma(engine) who isnt even in the game. And bohemia listen to their players much more than other companies out there it seems like.. Was the 1.7.2 showed on Utes Island(Arma 2 Map)?? Maybe they are bringing new bigger map sometime :) Imagine having to find and fix a boat to get to a new Island.. that would be pretty sick! :) Having a bigger map going up north too, with a snowy mountain winter terrain where you can freeze to death if you dont find varmer clothes or frequently chop wood and make fireplaces (Kill a bear and skin it to make fur clothes) and you would have to find plows to walk in high snow or you walk slow in the mountains.. And Snow storms passing by sometimes(Listen in on radios about weather forecast to check if its safe passing the mountain or just risk it and try and cross to some high valuable loot) and encounter wolf packs hunting you(safer to be in a group, lesser chance they attack) And of course Snowmobiles would be needed :) I dont see anything negative about Bohemia helping Rocket out on this mod.. Could bring alot of new stuff which wouldnt be possible without them.

Sweet! Bear traps sounds like a cool new feature :D Just missin the Grizzlys in the deep woods now. Sometime in the future... Imagine meeting a big grizzly standing on two legs infront of you! I loved hunting wild animals in RdR. I agree that their should be some more treats out in the wilderness like many other said before. Boars should start to run when they see you.. Making the hunt a little more exciting :) And if wolf(Reskin the dog and make it a little bigger) comes in the future.. make them hunt in packs.. Just resting with my crew by the fireplace in the woods by night and seeing eyes in the dark and howling would be epic thrill! (Just like watching the old movies when they are resting by the fire by night and wolf start sneaking around you) Keep up the good work!

Hey! whats upp with you being able to turn gamma and brightness up again? Thought the new arma beta patch implented so u could not "cheat" with gamma anymore.. Thought they made a lock for it so you couldn`t turn it upp or something like that.. I felt like the game was better without the gamma/brightness set to max. You can see as far and good as you can by day, just in black and white (Just looks shitty and takes away the feeling of being outside by night) Some of my best hours in DayZ was by night with my crew, when you couldn`t screw with gamma, to cheat the night of whats it suppose to look and feel like.. Even putting upp a fire with my crew was intense! :) Have you put upp a fire in the middle of the woods by night before? You should not be able to look outside the light from the fire. The feeling of someone maybe being very close too you, but you do not know for sure.. That describes night for ya I agree with alot of people that the night was a little too dark after the beta patch. But it was much better and intense then everybody playing with gamma/brightness set to max.. Not new patch related, but: DayZ by day and night, should be two very different experiences.. Anyone know if they are bringing this "real" night back? Looking forward to the new patch.. Keep up the good work Rock!

You just know if there was any kind of drawing system on the windows, they would be covered in dicks constantly hehe yeah i agree with that^^ thats why they would have to mby just implent som lines u chould choose from.. imagine like darksouls on the ground.. could start with a few then add some more.. Could also work with radios in the game.. u find a radio in a house and u could talk in only a short message 10 sec mby..(with a radio effect that makes it hard to hear, like a bad radio channel) and u could switch channels, this could make small stories on its own in the game.. but at the same time it could end upp 12 year olds just trolling on the radio :)
