My group once that consisted of 3 guys with axes and a guy with nothing killed 5 snipers on sniper hill in elektro. My friend with nothing ran up there first with nothing and completely confused them, every one of them turned their attention to my friend with nothing as the remaining 3 of us came up the hill and killed all 5 of them, earning ourselves, no joke, 5 AS50 TWS's. I laughed for a good 2-3 minutes. We couldn't believe what had actually happened.

You have no idea what you're talking about. What hackers can do in a game is not limited by the hackers themselves, it's limited by the company that makes the game. ArmA was a game that was made to be hacked, most games aren't made to be hacked though, which is why you don't see these kinds of hacks in any other games, and you won't see them in the standalone. If DayZ ever came out on console, there would be the same hacks on PC as on console.

I'm no longer an admin, but I used to admin several severs, private and public hives. Yes, there is the possibility of admins using hacks, and in-fact, the person I used to admin for, used a tool that allowed him to see everyone on the map. It allowed him to see people teleporting, and it also showed people who would spawn in, and run straight to peoples bases, then trash them. I still don't like the fact that he used a hack, but he never once used it to find people, or anything like that. It sounds to me like you're picking terrible servers to be honest. I've recently spent most of my time on whitelist Australian servers, and the admins are all cool, and I never experience any hackers anymore. The only thing I dislike about popular servers, and their admins, is that they think they are above everyone else. That because they run a server, they are better than everyone else.

Holy shit, are you this naive that you actually believe admins have the powers to do what they want? Admins don't have nearly enough powers. We can't tell who kills who, so hackers can kill everyone, we can't watch players through a cinematic mode, so it's impossible to tell if someone's teleporting, and you most certainly CANNOT spawn in items as an admin. If you own a private hive, you can edit the hive so you're tricking it to giving you an item you didn't find, but that's only on private hives where you own the hive. Again, admins cannot teleport, spawn items, or even kill players through any tools. Admins are effectively players who have the ability to click the "Ban" button.

That's what consolebabies believe. If the rumor is true, about the Xbox 720 having a 1.6ghz quad core, then it won't be running this game like it does on PC, that's for sure. Also, people seem to forget that the graphics for the Xbox were actually better than the Xbox 360 graphics when the 360 first came out because devs take a long to take advantage of the systems. The same is true for the PS3. Don't expect the next gen consoles to be much better, if any better at all than the current gen consoles until about a year down the line.

My guess is Less than 5gb because it's only 1 map, 1 game mode.

little birds are great,save for one little thing
aussiestig replied to BioHazard050's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I've had this happen recently in vanilla arma. A friend jumped out of a littlebird, and he exploded as soon as he did, blowing up the littlebird as well. -
Alright, I'm sick of getting friend requests and crap from this thread, so I might as well just post that this clan fell apart over a month ago, along with dayz. Some people still play, but mainly Americans. I no longer play with Double Tap, even though I am the leader. I play with a small group of people occasionally now, just for a bit of fun. Don't get mad at me for not replying to your messages and all that crap, because not for the life of me would I expect a thread with so many people complaining about no replies, to be bumped up to the top of the "Clan recruiting" forum so many times. Don't take it personally if I haven't replied to you, I stopped accepting people around 2 months ago, when it was literally only 15 year old asking to join. If you are still looking for a clan, maybe for the standalone, send me a message on here with the same application. I'm looking for people who know what they're doing, and can still make judgments under pressure. Age: How often are you on DayZ: Do you have a mic: Play times: Current Loadout: Ideal loadout: Last time you died: How long have you been playing DayZ/ArmA: Do you have much experience with groups in ArmA/DayZ:

Did Namalsk get it right?
aussiestig replied to crockett (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's a giant PvP map in my opinion. The first day or 2 you play it, it makes you feel like it's hard to survive on Namalsk, but it's easy. Stay at sea level and you don't need warm clothes, let alone heat packs. Not to mention about 70% of the towns in game have high level military loot, making getting awesome weapons extremely easy. I went to Object All on my first day and picked up an SVD camo. I already had an Mk 48 at that point. -
I think the reasoning behind it is that these community devs are some of the worst devs I've ever seen. Dean made a shitload of decisions regarding DayZ, to make the game what it is. If he wanted to do something, he did it, if people asked him to do something, and he didn't like it, he'd say that's not happening in DayZ, it's part of the game. These devs have gone against about 5 things that Dean came out and said he's not changing, all because they think they're making the game better. I for one won't be support DayZ mod after SA release until they show me they can make some decisions with maturity instead of changing it because they can.

Hello again, my old friends!
aussiestig replied to Foogals (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
-Standalone is coming, and it's coming next month (info: http://dayzdev.tumblr.com/) -You left at the right time, hackers took over dayz around august/september/october -duping gear got big, to the point people would dupe as50 tws's and camp elektro to kill people and dupe them when they die -Dean is no longer doing the updates for DayZ mod, he's moved onto the standalone, the past 2-3 updates have been community developers -Private hives have completely taken over public hives. Meaning you player is stuck to the one server, and admins can do what they want to the server -No big changes have been made to the game at all so far. Mainly optimizing, bug fixing -Alt-f4/aborting while in combat is now not possible (my favourite change) Just a basic list of some things that have happened over the last few months, do ask if you have any other questions. -
Dayz Auto Run - [Application]
aussiestig replied to assassin_ukg's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Just as a general rule on the internet, don't download a .exe unless you know exactly what it is you're downloading and you trust the source. This is also a stupid program for lazy people. Running is part of dayz, if you don't want to play the game, don't play it. -
DayZ standalone should not be TOO cheap
aussiestig replied to dasd2516's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It is going to cost 20 euro's, or whatever that is in your own currency, and it will be on steam. -Matt told me -
how did dayz or arma2 get Russian
aussiestig replied to Candylol's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Don't relate us to Americans. I haven't met a single Australian who's arrogant enough to ask this question. -
Aftermath:AS50 rounds vs Chopper
aussiestig replied to Kaffarov37's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
What is shooting at the floor of a helicopter meant to do anyway? You need to hit it in the main rotor/anti-torque rotor/nose/pilots head -
For every patient player who dies, there is a patient sniper. Stop getting sniped. Play as if there is a sniper watching you, even if there isn't. Most of all, think like a sniper.

Do custom servers make a good sandbox?
aussiestig replied to bad_mojo (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
They are servers just like every other ArmA II server. ArmA II's server browser wasn't made for DayZ, would should they treat it that way? -

You've got a very weak CPU. ArmA II is very CPU intensive for god knows what reason. There is no real way to be certain if you can run it without trying it out yourself. I recommend getting ArmA II Lite first to see if you can run the game. DayZ runs slightly smoother than normal arma though.

DayZ framerate issue on a very high-end PC?
aussiestig replied to TheRealist's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I've got a friend with the same setup as me, but he has a 7870, where as I have a 560ti. We used to play BF3 together, and I get around 55-60fps and he got around 60-65fps. So not much of a difference. There must have been something wrong with your old GPU -
DayZ framerate issue on a very high-end PC?
aussiestig replied to TheRealist's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Going from a 560 ti to a 7870 is a very very small increase, and most certainly not worth the money. -
"Zombie Logging" What's your take?
aussiestig replied to -Guardian-'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's an exploit. He stays in the game with the 12 zombies, he dies. He logs out, he's alive. How is that not an exploit? It's a "Zombie Survival Game". -
Do you even understand how the chain of command works? If there are 4 of you, a corpral would take control of the fireteam, but there is a sergeant, so he takes control of the fire team, therefore making the corprals role completely useless and he might aswell be a private. Good luck running a 4 man army bud. I'd hate to be in your group.

Your opinion on this? [Ultra-super ban for being under the command of the Terrorist God
aussiestig replied to Inception.'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
You can't have a public server at Namalsk. A public server is something hosted on the DayZ hive, the server you were playing on was not. -
If you read that tumblr there, you would see that Dean said he's been doing way too many interviews, and he needs to just sit down and work on the game. Would you rather him update us once every month and get an awesome game, or have a game where he updates you every day, and it ends up half as good as it could have been?
