First of all, Carne, what a fkn fanboy faggot thing to say when no one on the forums had even really given a shit to say that. On that topic though... Unless this "stand alone" has major bug fixes (like the gear crap, losing shit in the water, the 2 second lag time before a zombie drops dead after you shoot him in the head) and some fixes to the connection/verification so it doesn't take 9 minutes to connect to a server that is 30 miles away from you (and yea i have an i7 setup with 8gigs ram.. eat my dick if you're about to say "upgrade your pc") this game isn't going to be worth more than 5 dollars. Arma2 is the reason DayZ gets left behind.. some shabby ass net-code, and a horrible anti-cheat. If dayZ was being developed on another engine, i'd say SWEET, but for now, i'll just say, "lets see what actually gets fixed" because i'm not about to pre-pay 15 bucks for the same fucking game.

So i understand the fix is in place, but it's broken. My friend shot me by accident trying to kill a zombie, so i bandaged up and he gave me a blood transfusion, and we continued playing. The server dced on us about 7 mins later, so we found another server. As soon as i logged in, i was unconscious for 5 mins. I have no shock icon, or anything wrong with me, so I got irritated, but whatever. I wait the time out with my buddy protecting me. Upon getting up, I eat some pills for the fk of it (maybe that fixes shock, that i apparently don't have because there is no shock icon or anything wrong with my UI), drink a soda and we're back on the prowl. We play for another 25 minutes when he starts lagging bad and decides that the server is too far away from his location. So i disconnect, and we connect to yet another server... When i log in, Oh, i'm unconscious again. I wait yet another 5 mins and we made our way to the hospital to get some supplies, mainly epi pens since it seems i'm always going to be unconscious. ---------------------60 minutes later---------------------- I was writing this as we were in game. I finally logged out and logged back in to see if it has worn off, and no. Every time i log in now i'm unconscious. This can't be working as intended, and if it is, there is a huge problem with how you all decided to "fix" quick loggers. I was shot by accident by my friend, didn't even "quick log" and i'm now perma-unconscious any time i decide to play again. Some official word on what's going on would be really great. ------------EDIT------------- I'm FINALLY NOT UNCONSCIOUS upon logging in. I connected to yet another server (3rd), and when getting on, i'm fine. So apparently it fixed itself, or there is an extremely long, and completely unreasonable, amount of time before you can log in again without being penalized. I thought this was only supposed to happen on the same server (if you log out and back in to the same one) but apparently it transcends servers for me.

How do you play tonics wasteland? Is it just a server, or is there a download required?

The solution would be to bring the servers down, stopping the attack, then resuming the servers shortly after. There current ISP obviously doesn't have any protection against a denial attack. However, i still don't believe this is a DDoS, at this current time.

isn't the hive database on the same server as this website? if it was getting ddos'ed, we wouldn't be posting threads here (just like yesterday when the site was down, at the same time waiting for character lockups were happening) I almost guarantee this is because the database won't allow the large influx of connections it's getting; with all the new players coming in daily.
