Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz4mnLFTKJQ It's my first ever let's play, and it's all about DayZ. Please let me know what you think.

I've hosted plenty of private servers for popular video games, and even more public servers. I can tell you that I definitely prefer port-forwarded. Anything else is just too buggy even with our technology. Don't worry about people not hosting servers because its hard... someone out there is always going to make it easy.

No, you cannot eject from a moving heli without death. I didn't get to try it when still, but no. After finding a van, we drove WAY past start, found a ural. Took Van to accidently find mysterious heli in bush. Took heli. We flew for 3 straight hours (all on footage btw), and decided to "retire" the heli by parachuting down onto a PBX we found. Turns our we died. Fun day, fun ride, but don't try it. TL;DR: You shouldn't eject from helicopters!

I know topics exist about this, but I've not yet said my piece. I've had problems with artifacting since 1.7.1.4 patches. I don't know fully the cause, and I've searched through forum, and used the search function and all of that. I've read many, many posts about how to fix. In 1.7.2.4 the SceneComplexity = 100000 did help a lot. Today, I updated my graphics card drivers to the newest 12.8 by AMD (6000 series). I'm now having issues again, where all previous fixes in any order have NO effect. My specs: CPU: AMD Phenom II x6 1055t GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6870 OS: Windows 7 x64 Home Premium Any help is greatly appreciated.

I think you mean this:

Age: Age Unknown (from profile) you have 3 posts Skype: ihavebuncrum...... bum crum age 14+ only. I'm going to assume you're going to be 14 next month? Hah, I wouldn't expect many replies. You're too young for ArmA and DayZ. Rated M is rated M.

As of 8:00PM GMT -8:00 the server has been attacked by many hackers. Invisible players, players immune to bullets, and helicopter spawners. There's at least 2, with a possibility of 3. http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/xz7j9/today_i_was_followed_by_arnold/ ^ General description of a short event. And also, I was followed and killed by someone who seemed to take 0 damage from many L85A2 bullets to the head.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say duped.

I totally agree.

I don't think this trade will work. M1014 and the R870 both use same ammo, and do the same damage. The fire-rate is slightly better on the 1014, but the light on the 870 makes it a better weapon overall.

Are you getting any "kicked" messages? In the bottom left of your screen, what does it say. You could be kicked by admins who kick for no reason, it could be that your BattlEye client will not update, or just a freak accident. I've never been kicked for a unknown reason, try a different server.

Not necessarily true. Some server admins won't "lock" the server, but will kick to keep the server whitelisted. Try playing on different servers, and if this persists you may be globally banned. Contact support@battleye.com

That'd be a nice, and true post for the fact that ArmA 2 does run on a different ENGINE than ArmA 3. The definition of Engine is the coding framework it has to work with. So the ArmA 3 engine is just as viable as the Real Real Virtuality 4 engine.

I really can't read your question. Can you please rephrase it, it's incredibly difficult to understand what you're asking.

Another reason I think it may be hacked is because Helis supposedly spawn ~7 days after the last one is destroyed or lost. Helis are INCREDIBLY rare, and he found 3?

No information has been released. You can expect information to be released after september or maybe even until christmas. So, with saying that the officials have nothing announced, I'm going to GUESS that it's the ArmA 3 engine. Improved lighting, detachable scopes, underwater environments

It would be a feature that some people would really like, and others wouldn't. SO with the community split, they have to look at a possible community thing. Not having it wouldn't make people go away. Having COULD make people go away. So, no they're not going to have it.

I'm pretty sure hacked vehicles are despawned when servers restart. My heli stays every time a server restarts.

First off, you combat logged 2+ times. The first time is inexcusable, but the second and third times were because of a possible hacker. Don't expect much help, combat logging is terrible, and even worse for zombies (that's just incredibly cheap).

If you're talking about sitting in the lobby, this shouldn't be fixed. Lobby-sitting causes lag, and server issues with load and capacity. You're getting kicked because the admin has set a lobby-timeout.

Seeing as the "Zombies" are always referred to as "Infected" by the dev-team, this is entirely possible. A technical downside is that the 50+ infected would have to be handled by the server seeing as not everyone has fast enough processors to handle that many. As it is now, a persons computer is in control of the infected that spawn when your character gets close enough. So if the 50+ infected all spawned on your CPU, there'd be many issues. On a legitimacy side, they're infected, so they're still "human" in some way. The infected are just that, infected. With what, we don't know 100% yet. They still COULD have some motor control or leadership qualities. I like this idea. Some people want special zombies, but I think an infection isn't a mutation, they should be left out of this series. A horde however, seems awesome and challenging at the same time. It can give fear to the well-geared walking through a forest.

As a side-note: If you're globally banned contact support@battleye.com. If you're not globally banned, and it's a server admin, hopefully justice is done. Good luck!

This is kind of annoying haha. Why not just offload all statistical data on to a different smaller hive for web use. This way it can be accessed more, because it does not draw all data.

When will this be coming out? I've been dieing for the leader-boards to be fixed.

Okay, this made me lose all interest. You LOGGED OUT because you HEARD someone come up stairs?! You deserve to lose that man. You log out when you're safe, not when you're about to be killed. You should read some things about combat-logging, death-dodging, and alt-f4ing. You sir, did just that, even hearing footsteps, you logged. I no longer care about your missing gear. Agreed
