  1. This is an -alpha- EVERYONE, is an alpha tester at this point. We are all subject to faulty patches, that's the whole point of testing. Under no circumstances are you allowed to lock or kick people for "testing" purposes. I don't know the OP's history with your server but the fact of locking a server and kicking people is not even a debatable violation of server admin rules.

    Helicopters

    This thread was created a month ago. Why does DayZ community love to necro threads so much?
  3. Im confused why people like you buy servers and don't read the server rules before hand? It's given to you before you even buy a server and are asked to read and acknowledge..
  4. Just report him as I just did. He has already admitted plenty to admin abuse to at the very least obtain a warning if not a server blacklist.
  5. This is why you don't play on servers with name tags on, Makes it quite a bit harder for butthurt admins to kick when they dont know who you are. Hell, on my server i've had my base raided about 4-5 different times, my response is "oh fucking well, time to grab more vehicles when they respawn" for that matter in the current state of DayZ, pretty much all the tents and vehicles that got blown up will respawn with everything anyhow. People don't quite understand that unless you actually save shit after destroying it you're just wasting your time. If an admin kicks because he was killed/lost a vehicle then well, they're not very good at this game. When I do die, it takes me about 20 minutes in cherno to gear up with alice/enfield/tools and am good to hit up military locations again.

    Please Rocket, turn on "Who killed who"

    Well this is just wrong. Between the scripts.log and the OAserver log file it is very easy to spot hackers. the scripts log will straight up show the gerk script being loaded with all the playerkill/teleport etc commands. In the oaserver you can see peoples inventories and with basic sleuthing its not hard to spot obvious hackers. Showing who killed who in game is a bad idea and will probably never be added. That woudl basically be the same thing as having bandit skins again, it gives away legit players too much. Having it shown in server logs? Maybe thats still succeptable to admin abuse and in reality what needs to be fixed is the hacking itself, which is an issue that BattleEye needs to fix which for that matter, the who killed who is an Arma2 thing as well.
  7. Do you realize how retarded that sounds? You: "Hey hacker!, can you spawn me 1000 satchel charges/as50's/ghillies, oh also a tank?" Hacker: "Sure!" You "hey admin, this is all cool for me to use right since i didnt spawn it right?" Admin: "LOL SURE NP" I cant beat around the bush and will just say you're a moron.
  8. Well for a week now since you guys added the cute little "Sending zerglings" loading bar I cant log in to client services on your site. Which means I cant send a ticket And your live support is never online My server, Atlanta 73, is down with an unknown status for the last 4 hours. This is apparentley the only medium i can use to contact you guys currently

    DMR or M107?

    Not sure why anyone is responding with anything but the m107 for daytime. 1 shot, 1 kill, you can zero in to give nearly 100% accuracy. There's no guess work like there is with the dmr. Sometimes you only have a couple seconds before you lose your target and the m107 ensures both speed and the damage to kill someone instantly. Dmr is fine for night, or if you're running into town.. My loadout is the AS50, and a silenced m4 in my backpack.
  10. I have, the issue happens both here at work and at home as well. It just says Sending zerglings, then puts me back to a login page.

    Water Bottle Glitch

    I confirmed this multiple times last night as well, if you keep clicking you can keep creating water bottles. Not exactly a game breaking dupe but still should be fixed. I attempted to recreate this bug by converting M1911 ammo to .45 but it did not work luckily and is just affecting water bottles
  13. Uhh.. They didnt do anything to the map The map "notes" you are talking about.. When you place those.. those are visible by EVERYONE on the server fyi. And those are wiped on server restart Waypoints work just fine, depends on the server, been using it all day.
  14. Tents are still deffintley not working. On my server (atlanta 73) dayz, beta, and BE all updated. Have not tested with saving a tent after looting the items yet but tents still aren't fixed in regards to duping items.
  15. Well during the last DayZ patch we had to wait over a day to due "the guy being asleep" So today i'm taking bets on how long it will take until the new version gets pushed for us to install as its already been a good few hours that other servers have had the patch. whoever is closest without going over receives my beans!

    [1.7.2] New guns?

    So much misinformation in this thread. No weapons were added in 1.7.2 besides the bear trap. Secondly there is no holo SD version of that gun, there is however the normal holo with grenade launcher attachment lastly, its best to drop it somewhere. If you are killed with it people will just assume you were the hacker that spawned it.
  17. This would only help identify hackers that have spawned illegal weapons, which would obviously be useful, dont get me wrong. However it likely would have no effect on the hackers that mass teleport users as those people are technically dying due to fall damage. I do agree though, i hate that we can see "xx player has died" but it would be far more usefull if it said who they died to. Unfortunately i think this is the wrong place to ask for such a thing.. This would be a Arma2 coding issue and not really a DayZ one

    Female characters.

    No, because i'm not a horny teenager and don't get an e-boner thinking i'm going to spark up an online relationship and cyber every night at dawn on the pier of Solinichy. This is what porn is for, kids.

    Any safe servers?

    It has nothing to do with specific servers, its everything to do with the hive. Whenever i place a new tent, i throw random garbage in it and wait a day to see if it will save items. There's about a 50/50 chance that the tent will be reliable. Once you have established a tent that saves gear it should continue to do so
  20. Feel free to come by Atlanta 73.. We're running Regular Nameplates off, UTC -7.. Servers been up for a month already with minimal issues.. Kicks/bans are only handed out to hackers/dupers and people who blatantly dc mid fight. Have a Steam group up for cheat reporting on the server as well. I have 7+ years of IT working as tech support/data center and now a Cron job scheduler. All which does me little good though since I have my server through a host as well and have very little access..

    Atlanta 73

    Please read the sticky on the server forums about what admins can and cant do instead of making torch and pitchfork accusations, neither of the things mentioned are capable by admins (aside server restart). The rest was already answerd by Anttwan and Schleppy but as far as Tents go thats an issue with DayZ itself for as long as i can remember. If you destroy a tent even if it has gear in it, it will just pop back up on server restart with everything in it. As far as what could kill you deffintley was likely a hacker, or maybe a satchel charge or grenade possibly. So far on the server weve only had to ban 1 hacker and a hand full of dupe exploiters. If you see any fishy play please do either PM me on the forums or send something in the steam group so I can look into it.

    Hunting with Low Blood Blur

    I'm not sure if this was about reporting a bug, or telling a story. Both of which there are different sections of the forum for
  23. Better question is why do people complain about guys playing as girl characters? Seriously, who the hell cares? Do you not play games that force you to be a female?
  24. Please refrain from making threats vs server owners when we cannot even update to the latest beta patch due to the server hosts not making them available to us. Thanks
  25. You're telling me you work as a contractor as a projector manager for custoemr support projects... and you think 6 day downtime is acceptable on a 30 day billing cycle? I would have cancelled my sub or demanded compensation.
