So. Much. Reddit.

No. It's hacked in and so are all of the weapons.

So do I, but they are very rare and they aren't allowed to have it either. I wish it still existed. The last server I joined with side chat had everyone in the server chatting in side chat as they drove around picking each other up in a bus having fun.

The first month I played I couldn't do it because I was too paranoid and all of that, but I do now. A bit of chillstep always makes the long walks seem a lot shorter

This picture has been out for around 3 months now, but is completely useless now anyway because rocket got rid of side chat, so no one gets to ask it now ;_;

SG #00 SG #500 US #00 US #500 GB #500 all get hacked constantly by hackers that make them their home servers. I thought they'd get bored after a day. Nope, they do it all day every day on the same servers

That's because PS3 has nogaems.

I've spoken to the chief producer of codemasters F1 series - Steven Hood - several times before, and one topic that has been talked about is bandwidth on consoles. There is a very strict limit to bandwidth that is put in place by Xbox Live and PSN. PSN's is not quite as heavy as Xbox Live's, but still quite low. Not only is fitting 24 Formula 1 cars on a track in a multiplayer game hard on the console, but it borders and possibly even exceeds this limit. DICE had this same problem with Battlefield 3. Originally they wanted 32 players on consoles. Again, the Xbox could just handle 32 players, but Xbox said no, despite their efforts to push the limit just this once. There is no way in hell 50 players on a server will happen. Make 20-30 player servers. Not to mention the fact that the map is huge. Next gen consoles are a different topic all together, but they aren't due out until around 2014 recent sources are saying, so we've got a few years to wait. tl;dr bandwidth limits will limit DayZ on current gen consoles to around 24 players per server.

I kind of like the spawn to be honest. Everyone just runs into kamenka and gets eaten by zombies so they can get a different spawn. I like it because I can go through Kamenka, Komarovo, Balota then cherno without back tracking. Where's the fun in the game if you get an elektro spawn, then you run to the Firestation, find an M16 then kill everyone?

Source on this? I'm extremely doubtful about this. Xbox Live and PSN both have terms that say there is a bandwidth limit in online games. I don't know what it is exactly, but 50 players on such a huge map exceeds the limit by more than 3 times.

You see, DayZ was a mod created by one guy from NZ who was hoping they'd end up with maybe 150 people across a few servers, and ended up with 1,000,000 unique players. There is no big Dev team for DayZ. We're lucky that BIS is paying rocket to make DayZ while at work as it is. He works his ass off to get this game fixed, and your pointless threads do nothing to fix it at all. Stop forgetting that this is not a game, this is a mod. Most mods that completely change the game like this aren't released to the public until often a year after they were started. Be thankful you can play it right now.

This basically just proves it. With a chopper you can see every camp and vehicle there is around the map extremely easily. When flying my chopper, it got to the point where I couldn't be bothered landing, even if there were like 10 tents. It's so easy to find everything. Pro-tip, it's AS50, not AS550 ;)

Holy crap, maybe I should have scrolled down the page to see how long that was before I blew 25 minutes reading a Q&A session. You have to give it to rocket though. How many devs do you see come out and answer questions about their games? Let alone hour long Q&A sessions, and 2 hour long skype calls. Credit to you mate.

If anyone has mountain dew readily available like that, then chances are their also really well geared / and or have vehicles themselves. I'm just waiting for someone to PM you, set up a trap and kill you when you land. Or even for a hacker to see this and blow your chopper up. Then again, no one with a helicopter would ever give random people a lift, you sure you're not a hacker?

Jumping with at least 50kgs of gear on? I don't think so.

Because the people who trade gear are the same people who dupe gear. I'll admit that I've set up a trap before. A friend informed me about the Reddit DayZ trade section, and because it's just full of faggots we set up a trade and killed some guys with 3 AS50's, NVG's, coyote's, range finders and all of that. They were mad we killed them but they just went back to their duped camp and grabbed more stuff and moved on.

Why? Why must you post such short and meaningless crap, THEN sign it?

"DEAN HALL" or whatever it was called.

What do you mean? Make sure you do try connecting again, it will save you hours of swimming. There is no knowing. If it was a hacker that put you in this mess, then you will end up somewhere between solnichny and elektro I would say. Most hackers port people to the bottom right of the map now, so swimming NW is your best option.

How was it a decent thread? It was full or shitposting and horrible meme's. Hell, what am I saying, the entire forum is.

First try disconnecting and reconnecting. Chances are, that will fix it. If that does not fix it, swim NW.

Fair enough for your friend to be a little mad about dying to a glitch, but complaining because you didn't hear someone come up the stairs? Really? I bet you were just alt-tabbed anyway. We've all died with better gear than you've even seen before, and for many of us it happens on a regular basis. Don't get attached to your gear, ESPECIALLY when the game is in the state it's in right now.

So stop going to the goddam tents. I've played with a guy like you for the last month. It started by finding our first car and loading it with guns so we could kill people and not worry, eventually we'd just remember were tents were on our server, and run straight there when we died. I stopped playing for about a week not long ago because it got so boring. It defeated the purpose of the game. I had every tool in the game on me, an AS50, L85, ghillie, NVG's, range finder, coyote, you name it. I made a decision. I placed 2 satchel charges on the ground near the school, ran around and collected atleast 40 zombies, ran back to the charges, gave a salute and killed all of us. I started a new life with a different friend. I refuse to take anything from tents other than food and water now. I'm going to earn my gear or just stop playing. While I say that, last night I got reset to the coast, ran to elektro firestation and found an M249 on the floor with 3x200 round belts with it. Can't complain really.

The hacker was probably scared of getting banned, so killed everyone once at a time to avoid suspicion

That's no bug. That is a hacker, my friend. Welcome to DayZ, have fun! :D
