A few sources I have read say that changing the FOV *WILL* affect the mildots and ranging, but I am still trying to figure out by how much so i am putting that note in the guide for now.

I don't think there is much tension on groups about loot. The way my group seems to play is that if you find it, it's yours. If you don't want the item, it goes to who NEEDS it most. I have given ghillie suits to my snipers, and gave away a DMR and about to give a M24. Don't mind it at all because someone gave me my L85. I think the high end military stuff should be way rarer. Out Ural and VS3 are LOADED. I mean full of rare shit. It's not very rare at all.

Surprised it took 7 posts to get to this.

The skins are fine. There needs to be a few more though. For example the civilian skins can range from white sleeves, blue sleeves, to black sleeves. The cammo in the game is kind of a military mechanic guy, leave that and add a full cammo pattern like the military zombies. Matter of fact just make it so every skin currently in the game civilian and military, and if you want to get crazy the zombie clothes like priest, Mythbuster, Nico Bellic, etc. That's what we call them anyway. The military cammos and especially the ghillie should be CRAZY rare. The ghillie should be as rare as rangefinders/NVG.

I think it is done once every 24 hours. If you want to put your stuff out there go ahead. I never have and never will.

This is good question. I have heard different things so I am going to research that and update everyone.

FOV of 180 would be INSANE if you could pull it off. That's like having 3 monitors.

Try and add OA to steam and then launch "Combined Operations". DayZ won't work with "ArmA 2" and it won't work with "OA". It will only work with "Combined Operations" which is either ArmA2+OA or ArmA2 Free+OA. I don't know if that's gonna help but you can try. Are you launching ArmA 2 Beta from the .cmd batch file? DayZ only works with the ArmA beta version installed

Unless you have proof through the logs then what you have here is a case where you got owned by a player. Some people as just good.

You are not looting your former self. Your former self is dead and your current self is a completely new person. That's what they mean by perma death.

Alpha = creating new content Beta = squashing bugs Once those 2 are done then the game will be released in whatever medium. Or not. Anyone telling you they know what is going to happen is a fool because not even Rocket/BIS knows yet.

The only thing annoying is the boots but if you die because someone saw your boots then you are doing it wrong.

Tie up I don't think is too great, but hand cuffs could be a possibility as well as zip ties. Maybe they can run but can't use their hands or anything. I would make the time very limited though, like maybe 15 minutes tops. If you guys look into Project Reality there is a zip tie mechanic where if a cililian shoots at you they can be arrested and have a long spawn timer, but if a soldier shoots a civillian then *HE* gets the long spawn timer.

First death, first murder, first helo crash, first time at Stary, first time in the barracks. I run with a decent sized group and we all have so many good/bad times (almost all good) that it's really getting hard to pick. One time I had a situation like OP said where I was a fresh spawn and worked with a guy over direct that blood bagged me, gave me a gun etc. Ony happened once.

Ok I think thats fixed now, thanks.

Do you have a blog or site and want to cross-promote? Are you tactically minded and know a lot about the game that you can offer to others? Maybe you have never wrote for a blog before and would like to start. This whole thing is new to me so the design is not perfect, but we all know content is king. My new blog is growing fast but I need different perspectives to offer my readers. I am looking for either guest bloggers or people that want to write only for DayZPvP.com. Obviously the blog is geared toward the PvP aspect, but in these early days my readers can use any information they can get their hands on. A few people have offered to help, but so far none has. I don't want words or promises, I want production and content. 1-2 posts a week would be perfectly fine if that is all you can muster. I also post reviews and links that need blurbs written for them. If you want to get involved just send me either a whole post, or part of a post you have written. If it's good I will put it up. The first few posts I will post myself, always using your name at the top giving you proper credit. After you get a few posts under your belt I will change your status to author and you can post yourself. I just don't want to add a blogger that does one or 2 posts then is never seen again. If you have a nice one-off thing you have written, that can work too. I will post it, of course putting your name prominently at the top. After some time as a guest contributor you can have your own section. Think of it as a column in a newspaper or magazine. Of course this all takes time, trust must be built. I have another much, much larger project in the works as well, but that is in the weeks ahead. Please reply, PM, email Ryan@DayZPvP.com or use the contact form on the site.

I know who he is, I agree he has some great videos. I have been a subscriber for a while. Good lead, thank you. I will contact him, but can *you* also please email him? Maybe be just say you read the blog and would like to see something he has written. You know, some peer pressure :)

Thank you for the offer, can you please shoot me a link to your DA or sites you have done, etc.

Thank you everyone for the responses, please email them to Paleface@DayZPvP.com or use the form on the site (you could PM them to me here as well). I am really looking forward to reading what you guys have!

The lag in the cities is pretty normal, I get about a 25-30 percent drop depending on where I am in the city. The right click issues and that I'm not sure about. If you use Steam try and verify cache. Seems like you are missing some files somewhere.

The thing is that clans and groups like to hoard vehicles. If that server does not seem to have vehicles this is the most likely answer.

Please do! Email or PM me something and we can go from there. I am looking forward to reading what you have. Over 16, 500 hits in our first week week, so your work will be noticed.

It says "Step 7. Now take the result of Step 6 and divide that by the FIRST number of your Aspect Ratio." What do you mean multiply by first number, that's what I put?

I see abuse reports here every day on those servers. I have played on one and it was very smooth, and I am on the west coast of the US. Where is LU?

What I mean is 80? 90?
