I seen that nyxe playing all week, he/she knew it was a private server as he/she always replied to people who asked and it does say in the motd. I play there because i like it (so does everyone else), you're just upset you got banned, one of you called them hackers so they banned you- whilst it runs batteeye and custom cheat detection. It was pretty epic to watch you all arguing in chat - we all knew who would win, the person who had the power to ban you. We killed them on the roof anyway but oh well..

how do you turn off/on the blue markers on maps showing yours and others postitions? What setting is it? anyone know thanks.

sorry i meant server side settings. You know if someone brought up the map in game u can see blue markers called "survivor" and you see the bandits in orange, you know what i mean? It gives proxmity markers on the map any other playe rin close range can see you, i was wondering what setting in the config turns them off/on.

great video, entertaining. I'd love to know some spawn locations for vehicles... wanna fix one up.

essentially what you are complaining about is someone changing the gamma for a better output, lol, really guys? Do people complain when you adjust your tv at home to watch a picture at better quality.

lets give it a whirl, who knows how it might be, might be fun...might be annoying, if we don't try we'll never know.

I can understand the alpha rules since you want more players playing, more tests etc etc, but as a dev yourself you know you can never sustain this decsion for the forseeable future. You said your working on it, it's cool, people can wait... but in the end the mod will only be as good as the community that plays it, which ironically is people who donate servers/clans and groups... because the casual public flash-in-the-pan players don't care how this mod ends up, they'll find a new game...but these people will want to keep servers up and keep it alive for everyone, rules will have to be changed in the end.. Some servers lock servers for about 10mins, no big deal, passworded servers are different since only certain people can have that pass, alot of locked servers already have random players on anyway, people lock them after restarts mainly. End of the day it's alpha, more people need to test it, an unlocked full 40man server gives more telemetry data than a half full 40 man server, so i see the point.. but still, it's just something you worry about when there is much better things to be fixing/updating/creating/enjoyin.

Sorry dude i've rented and owned servers for the past 10 years for various games i have never come across a community that whines and moans so much over someone kicking someone, it's just pathetic. Mummy that boy pushed me over, wah wah wah essentially. It's not my server he is talkin about but heres something you need to learn, mods are only as popular as the community makes it, the more people alienate admins who pay for the servers the less servers will be created which means you'll end up looking at a dayz screen and not being able to play. If no-one buys servers, how do you play? Just find other servers if you got kicked, NO BIG DEAL omg man, jeez. Why hassle and stress over trivial things... much more important things in dayz to do first. I am pointing out that people need to chill out, it's a game man! In the end when this mod hype is over and all the casuals leave it in the dust, these people will still be playing..paying for servers, dayz can't maintain these sort of strict rules as a viable avenue in the future, it will kill it off. You could always support the community and buy your own too if you are unhappy?

in the future dayz staff won't be able to tell anyone how to maintain servers. The community will keep this mod running on out of pocket expenses, not rocket, not mr joe public and certainly no company. Rocket in the end will have to allow people to kick for mates, locked servers etc etc, it's the only way it will ever last unless dayz mod wants to pay for all servers in the future, because with out the servers there is nothing, you can't play. All the community servers will just have to rely on the fact if rocket will continue to dev this mod. End of the day it's not a crime to get kicked, our ping limit is 175... people already report us for that lol. There are tonnes of other servers, just move on, it's no big deal god man, grow up. Ok so it's in alpha and rocket and his team need to collect data from a bigger number of players on servers, but all this snitching and bitching will have to end when he releases somesort of version 1.

yer not hard to figure out, i know how it's done but it kinda defeats the entire point of the game imho.

wow so much hate, i'm sorry i am not an angel but that is just a mess of text. Your mum know you type like this on forums?

Tis silly you can't pick it up, making a barricade and the only way out is to remove what you just built? lol...

We don't kick anyone on eu14. our ping limit is 165 if you reach it auto kick. You can't comfortably play on that ping anyway, it would be pretty laggy and get alot of desync's. Server software removes high ping people, makes a better server for people who are close to it.

It's not really something that would happen i doubt BUT with any pvp/pve game such as big player games like eve they have a central hub where anyone can kill you but they don't because the npc's will kill you there straight after, i doubt anyone would want to risk dying and yes.. a bandit could zero in on the postition from so many miles away, that would be a risk you take going there, bandits would be sniffing around ready to kill, it still doesn't defeat the point, people either risk it or don't, no big deal, even if they killed someone - was it worth it? i am sure a script could remove dead bodies immediatly and prevent any looting, so it's kinda remving the reward too. A trading hub will be needed for prolonged life in the long run, better late than never. It would put some objective into the game, people like "farming" and "looting" a mmo wouldn't exist without it, simple. AS for the zombie theory, ai can be told not to pass checkpoint, same for animals, this point is irrelevent. You are essentially playing this game to progress a toon in pvp or aquire better gear, you are not playing to just kill zombies....

Its a nice idea, maybe rocket could designate a safe zone and spawn some god-npc's with big guns, anyone who fires gets killed by them instantly, maybe.. it would be nice for a "trading hub" at some stage!

I wouldn't do it but at the end of the day there are far more important things to worry about. People dc in many games, it's not the end of the world guys.

Once again our group of 4 are always up for new players joining us or us joining them, we just become the owners of eu 14 (uk server) about 40ping, we will be setting up a camp/fortify it and have some nice vehicles by the end of the month with all the supplies we can get. Intrested in meeting us? Send me a message in steam pbr_djsy

Just like to say thanks to the provider, we had our server in about 40mins after payment. We have had no issues whatsoever, he has answered our questions on settings and we are very happy so far. come and visit us on EU 14 - survivor 101

Just tone down the zombie spawn, its not bad it's just a little much in some areas. Lone wolfs won't be able to survive for many minutes anymore. If you aggro just 1 an entire zombie army comes at you, if ya on ya own, ya just gunna end up respawning alot. In groups not to bad, but think of how many people play lone, more than groups!

to many man, im in a town now near nw airfield across the road are 33 zombies (runners mainly) and a few crawlers and hoppers (10). If i go around this in the field are so many hoppers it's kinda off putting, so i can't flank either way. If i go through some of them like i tried the entire immediate area came towards me, i run into the red house, and have to mow down about 50 zombies lmao.. now i have no ammo for any gun and quite frankly there is so many that i can't get out because i'll get mauled, it took the stealth and fun out the game for me and i just bought a server too. can't get out, spose ill have to die n start again which won't be fun because you'll never make it. When you see player killed x 20 in about 2 minutes, you know people are having problems.

its a bit to much man. I had about 90 zombies come running to a house, im sorry but i don't have that much ammo.

2/3 options, you either go f2p because in the end it will make more money from micro transactions and yes it's a horrible model but i am afraid it's what the industry makes money off these days and on top of that make people pay for any future dlc (weapons skins/new content)...they don't get the new content otherwise. or Pay for the game, then have a small fee like £4.99 a month and release dlc every so many months for free which is included in the subscription model which in turn will probably earn you money back, just take a little longer. OR you could allow a f2p model with some basic cosmetic upgrades in a marketplace nothing like weapons or anything though, have the community run servers and get them to pay for dlc and not make it moddable (which isn't a good idea anyway) people need to remember althoug the devs love the games and what they make, you also are a business.

i picked one up and of course i know what one is. However what use has it in the game? i can't understand where you use it? A spade, a collapsable digging tool, and i do what with it in this game? I thought you might dig a hole n hide in it lol, but that's not working..

haha, i won't be dying anytime soon, sorry guys pmsl.

there are 3 of us who also use teamspeak i am 29, my 2 mates are 25. We are survivors of 2 days and we are hoping to sort out a "hideout" with other people so we can bring some tools, wire, etc. We will be starting a server hopefully tomorrow if the server company gets it set up :) steam: pbr_djsy
