Public Hive or Private Hive? My servers are hosted in Europe and run GMT-6 ... so you are welcome there. PM me for the details if you are interested.

Must be true then. Really ... and how long did it take ... wait here is the excerpt: So yes by all means ... punch away at Zombies and Players ... you will die before they do ... he was already suffering from appendicitis at the time. I have done Full Contact Karate and Kick Boxing most of my life ... no one has ever died ... so sorry. :(

... Or to be another CoD / BF3 / [iNSERT OTHER TITLE HERE] style game ... or should it be a Zombie Survival Game. Maybe in the next season of Walking Dead they will all have AT4's and High Explosive rounds ... that would be awesome to watch ... NOT!!!

Weird ... so I must be imagining the 40 players who were on my server last night that is running 1.7.6.1 ... I guess I am going mad. http://www.gametrack...8.248.111:2352/ ... Nope ... maybe not!!!

Problem connecting to servers.
novogeek replied to ShokeR (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yes ... I once spawned like a bird ... but I only saw it once. -
My Private Hive is standard ... only difference is that vehicles have a higher chance of spawning ... but there are not more of them. The rest of my stuff is normal as I want to keep it that way. :)

Weird ... works for me ... gawd ... now I don't know anymore. :( -
Hi, Find a server that tries to stay ahead of the cheaters ... there are lots of them out there. The option is to play on a Private Hive instead. PM if you want details to my servers, my Private Hive is just starting ... and I am trying to get players in. :)

Problem connecting to servers.
novogeek replied to ShokeR (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Okay ... I had the same problem connecting to my server. I got a new server pbo file and restarted the server and the problem went away. Try connecting to DE 4265 and see if you can connect or not. HTH -

Don't you have to use pictures from some specific site or something ... I recall there being a post about that. Me thinks Search is your friend in this instance. -
Have you ever punched someone? If so ... did the person die? Stop watching movies ... real life don't work like that. :P

Im Tired-Less Running Please
novogeek replied to Rick the Survivor's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Drive them on the road and avoid roadblocks ... they are plenty fast. As in real life ... taking a Bus off-road ... can cause havoc. The only Vehicle I think needs some serious attention is the ATV ... so I just avoid them for now. Road vehicles are durable on road. Off Road vehicles are durable off road and on road. Drive in to a tree or stone wall with any car ... and yes it will break ... but that is real life. :) -
I had the same issue ... I keep feeling like I am repeating myself. I had to get a new server pbo file for my server and then I could start connecting to it. Try connect to DE 4265 and see if you are still having this problem. I was able to resolve it as stated and within minutes my server filled up to capacity (40/40). HTH
-
Are you the server admin? I had to update my server.pbo file for this issue to go away for me ... although I was getting the "oops something went wrong" problem. Can you check the server logs ... or get the admin to check it ... the problem might be in there.

Hero for the win ... well for me it is. I pretty much follow the same approach as JohnAJ ... but I don't go out to be a Bandit and still try to play my normal game. On a Public Hive, I will normally back down from a fire fight or try to get away ... I kind of treat it like real life ... when 3 dudes are shooting at you with an AK ... retreat and live to fight another day. On a Private Hive, I won't back down as easily ... but will still try to keep my character alive. No ... I am not attached to my character, but I prefer to play as if this is the only life I have and don't just throw my life away easily.

I had a Bicycle once ... was robbed by a Bandit ... :( A couple of days later, I found a tractor hidden in some bushes ... so I been upgraded. Heheheheeh. -
Wow ... Zombies too strong ... Zombies too weak ... Cans are not random enough ... Cans are too random ... Zombies can hear too far ... Zombies can't hear far enough. The bottom line is that the mods will never be able to please everyone, that is the nature of the game. Unless they can scale the Zombie difficulty in line with the server difficulty, it is never going to make everyone happy. What I recommend is either go try one of the other mods based off DayZ, or take DayZ, learn the scripting side of Arma2 and modify the mod to your requirements. Please note, I am not trying to disregard your argument and your opinion, it's just that a lot of people complained that the Zombies were freaking out and hitting you without doing an animation ... the developers fixed that ... and now we have found something else wrong. I kind of base the Zombies on movies and TV shows and with the greater chance of infection now ... They are pretty much on target with these shows. They need to get close to damage you, one Zombie on its own is not normally a problem, a Hatchet can deal with them quietly and quickly, when they horde you ... you are in for a world of hurt. Running and gunning in town ... well prepare for retribution. I personally think it is spot on. :)

I have a Public Official Hive with Only Game Servers - very happy with their service. I have a Private Hive with DayZ Priv - very happy with their service. I recommend you decide on what type of server you want, then look at all the holsters out there and see which one meets your price range and offers you the features you want. Most of them offer different features ... So you need to choose the one that gives you what you need. :) HTH

Hear ... Hear ... I tend to agree. This is what makes the vehicles in DayZ a valuable asset to protect ... even bicycles and tractors. :) I protect my tractor with everything I can. Heheheheeh. -
70% of servers don't work....
novogeek replied to lunchboxcharlie's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
My server had a similar issue, I eventually had to get myself a new PBO generated and the problem went away. I am not saying that this is the issue with these servers, but it was with mine and the solution seemed to work for me. Even I couldn't connect. :) -
Hi, Okay I had a similar issues when trying to connect to my Public Hive (DE 4265). It was recently upgraded to 1.7.6.1 and I would connect, then I would get a "oops something went wrong.." error. I then tried to connect to my Private Hive (which is running 1.7.6) and I was able to connect without any issues. Now I know they are different, but I was trying to see if it was Arma2 that was the problem (i.e. client side) or the server. I then recreated my pbo file from "http://www.silentspy...ion-generator/" and uploaded it to the server ... restarted the server ... and viola. I am able to connect, all my tents are still there ... I am not getting kicked for eating and stuff and everything seems to be working. Those that want to test against my server: DE 4265 - 88.198.248.111:2352 (v1.7.6.1/101747) I hope this helps ... it worked for me and seemed to be a server side issue. Edit: As soon as I resolved this ... my server peaked up to 40/40 servers almost immediately. :D

novogeek replied to Epic89's topic in Clan / Group Recruitment
PM me if you want details for my Public and Private Hive servers. I am meeting up "Skadefroen" (from these forums) tomorrow night on my Public Server. The server is set to GMT-6 and normally has close to full capacity. -

You don't have to equip the axe to harvest wood if it is in your toolbelt ... just right-click on it in the toolbelt and select harvest wood. It works for me. :)
