His logic is pretty simple. If you had a gun you would not need to run away from Z's. You could shoot them. You guys are making yourself look pretty dumb for not understanding this. I don't agree with him though. I like the way the game is setup. See ya

Evening all, Can someone let me know how much a tent can hold? Is there anyway of telling when its almost full? Thanks in advance

Does anybody have any idea what issues are being fixed in 1.7.2.2?

The problem I have noticed since build is that I keep spawning at different places. If I finish up for the night at the airfield then log in again in the morning I am spawned on the coast. All my gear is still there though. My last position is ever saved!! Damn Anyone else seen this?

After update 1.7.2 i just seen ManBearPig. Was he added to the game?

I was at airfield, now i am at coast!!! WTF Anyone else getting this?

Going to bed. Thanks for the update guys. I am sure it will be top drawer. Look forward to playing tomorrow. Night Night everyone!! Sweet Dreams.

I did not lose anything, but i am spawning all over the place. I have been in wilderness to.

Guys, I am talking as someone who has never done this before. Do i just download the latest Mod files (1.7.2) and place them into the 'Addons' folder? Will i remove the old ones first or overwrite? Thanks in advance

Ok i did not even catch the name of the guy it happened so quick. I just logged on and fancied a game of DayZ. I played last night and logged of in the Barracks as it was quite late. ANYWAY.. I just logged in to find a dead guy infront of me in a Guillie Suit (whatever they are called) and another guy 2m infront of him. I assumed he killed the other guy. I emptied a round into him and he died. I hope he didn't just get to the airfield. Its a long hike. But i just couldn't take the risk of him shooting me. I got the following from him: AKS Kobra with 5 mags GPS !!!! Toolbox G17 Mags Morphine M9 with 4 mags Sorry buddy!! i felt bad. But i just spawned in. Maybe you should be spawned away from other players in future. What would everyone else have done?

I would imagine the game will run fine. You just won't have the latest updates that come with 1.7.2.

I did not sever hop. I just joined a game.

I found a friendly person once. 2 mins later I put a bullet between his eyes and took his stuff. There are friendly people out there!!

Guys and Girls, Can someone explain to me how loot spawns? Is there a time period for this happening? If i walk into a church, clear it of loot and come back 20 mins later will new stuff have appeared? Is it always the same stuff that spawns in a given area? Or if i picked up an G17 from a hunting tower, could a M9 spawn there next or will it always be a G17? Thanks

1. Install games 2. Run each game once 3. Get the beta patch from here http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php Download the very top .zip file (Latest) 4. Run the .exe file within .zip file you just downloaded 5. Go to the Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead directory (for example C:\Program Files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead) and right-click -> edit on .cmd file "_runA2CO_beta.cmd". Search for ":run" near the end of the file. Add ";@dayz" without quotes to "-mod=%_ARMA2PATH%;EXPANSION;ca". 6. Download the mod from here http://dayzmod.com/downloads.php 7. Create a new folder called '@DayZ' here C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead (Might just be Program Files, not Program Files (*86)) 8. Within the '@DayZ' folder create another folder called 'Addons' 9. Extract the files from the Dayz Mod (Step 6) into the 'Addons' folder I believe there should be 16 files (14 + 2 .txt files) 10. Run the '_runA2CO_beta.cmd' file you edited in step 5. Game loads, DayZ should be mentioned on startup screen over to right hand side. Hoping i have not missed anything here. Doing this from memory. Create a shortcut to the '_runA2CO_beta.cmd' on your desktop for easy access Done

The sun rises in the morning.

Any thoughts on this?

Fine people of the forums. Does anyone know a good video i could watch on using the gear screen and bag screen? So i dont keep losing items? Thanks

Thanks all The reason i ask is because last ight my mate logged on for the first time to play. I had saved an M9 with 3 Mags for him. I opened my gear and dropped them, only to find they where NOT anywhere to be seen on the ground (LOST - i was so pissed offfff) So next he opens my Bag, and takes the spare G17 and 2 mags i have in there. They don't appear in his gear. FFS, 10 mins later they do appear. BUT in those ten mins the AKM i had with 6 Mags just vanished into thin air. WTF!!! I have been playing for hours and in a few mins i am left holding an axe. Trying to battle my way through a full server and helping my mate who has never played it before. Lets just say i was not happy about it. Are they known issue around this area? Giving stuff to other players etc?

How do i find out what server i am in so mates can join me? Any easy way to do this?

Thanks mate Away to kill some pigs

Yes, Dayz is easy to install after getting the games of steam.

Do I have to unequip my secondary gun in order to get a torch to work? Was having issues last night. I had to store my gun/mags in my pack just to get my torch to work. Which meant I had to drop all the stuff in my pack. It sucked. Is this correct or is there a better way to do it?

Man up!!!! Walk in with your head held high, blowing Zombies away as you slowly walk across the runway. People will respect you so much they will refuse to shoot you. Now go!
