Whats going on with the servers? All servers the game shows me (in Europe) are completely full or empty, absolutely nothing like 7/40 or something like that... Its always 40/40 or 0/40 :/ Yesterday it was fine, today its always like that: Connecting to either empty or full servers gets me a waiting for host or connection failed message

Just make it save to play for now. And by that i mean you dont have to worry about magical char reset after server change and falling uncon forever. (Had to restart from scratch 17 times now but never got killed since i started...)

So please write down what you found so far and maybe whats good and whats bad. [And yes, i forgot the "r" in the title] The biggest thing (for me) is the new map - old terrain but lots and lots of new locations, streets and buildings that you can enter. Better graphics and far lower (for now) performance. Nice animations. Very cool looting system, but not that much loot as expected. (and only 3 weapons so far) New weapon modification system. Mhh... and thats it? Please tell me they did more than that in over a year now. My personal opinion on this is, its a nice alpha game (bugs are ok in alpha status, i dont care about them for now[ofc report them]), but not enough stuff for - how long did they work on it? Still looks like some sort of a mod. Main menu is still ArmaII stuff, they just removed the unneccessary parts and rearranged the others (wtf keybindings). Engine seems to be the same. Sometimes this feels worse than the mod way back in 2012. But at the same time I'm impressed by the gameplay, the feeling of it. Its DayZ, definitly. Maybe the lite version for now, but Dean promised to change that soon. I hope he's right :) So what do you think / found out?

You have to find the right grip for it (got 4 rails on the grip) I found it today, works fine

Oh wow it happened again, character wiped after I connected to a server.... I think I'll make a bug report about this -.-

Hi there, I recently lost my char after I switched to another server (logged in after patch, connected to random server, played a few minutes with my inventory and changed the server). Maybe it has to do with the char model not changing - it had the standard black female skin all the time, no matter what I did. Now I respawned at the beach with the char I made after starting the game for the first time. I think theres no way to get it back - who else encountered this or a similar problem / bug?

One question, V1.8 listed all players who created ammoboxes, inofficial vehicles and pipebomb explosions and so on, the newest version always says "All Clear". But there are enough entries with ammoboxes in the log :/ Tried 2.0, 2.1, several scripts.txt....

Hi there, important thing first, this is a report thread only, please post only reports, no comments, smacktalk and so on. First cheat reports from my side, happend a few minutes ago: With logs: Player "GreenGiant" [Verified GUID (4881b55e2229460e620d454512d64564) of player #2 Green Giant] createvehicle.log 23.08.2012 17:40:28: Green Giant (*IP censored*) 4881b55e2229460e620d454512d64564 - #0 "USBasicWeaponsBox" 15:95 [13538,5067,5] 23.08.2012 17:56:57: Green Giant (*IP censored*) 4881b55e2229460e620d454512d64564 - #0 "USBasicWeaponsBox" 15:153 [8348,2476,35] remoteexec.log 23.08.2012 17:59:55: Green Giant (*IP censored*) 4881b55e2229460e620d454512d64564 - #0 "anarray = ["ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoIvan","ActsPer cMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoStefan","ActsPercMstpS nonWnonDnon_DancingStefan","ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDn on_DancingZOZO"];player playmove (anarray select (floor(random(count anarray))));" 23.08.2012 17:59:55: Green Giant (*IP censored*) 4881b55e2229460e620d454512d64564 - #8 "ctsPer cMstpSnonWnonDnon_DancingDuoStefan","ActsPercMstpS nonWnonDnon_DancingStefan","ActsPercMstpSnonWnonDn on_DancingZOZO"];player playmove (anarray select (floor(random(count anarray))));" Player "Buggy" [Verified GUID (c94d841fbd28e60df0721a20f9f5937a) of player #4 Buggy] createvehicle.log 23.08.2012 17:34:49: Buggy (*IP censored*) c94d841fbd28e60df0721a20f9f5937a - #0 "AmmoBoxSmall_556" 7:246 [4629,10483,339] Not log-confirmed, but seen ingame: 3 Players logged in, log-confirmed postition near Gorka, approx. 15 min after server restart, chopper was (confirmed) fresh spawned at skalisty island. About 10 minutes later the copper with the 3 players inside flew directly over me and some other players in our group, we shot it down, 1 player called "g" died, 1 disconnected, 1 had NO damage and said in VON "haha you didn't hurt me". 2 Players shot him with AS50 & thermal, he didn't take damage and killed one of us. We logged out (bcause of this cheater), he logged out. We logged back in. Our killed member spawned in elektro and 3 minutes later a quad SPAWNED right behind him with player "g" (who died a few mins before) and this other godmode guy, he killed "g" again, the other guy took no damage. "g" had full equip again with ghillie, as50, thermal, nvg and so on... Because of no name proof of the third guy i cant post him here, but i banned this "g" [Verified GUID (6deb0bfb8c65c3eee52761cc079672a2) of player #6 g] for teleporting / hacking and the other guy "Dana" [Verified GUID (e84b33f1c8cfa963571f9ad73f274cd4) of player #8 Dana] (confirmed name as he disconnected in front of my mate after teleport/godmode). Hope this is enough for proof. Server timezone CEST // Setting [GMT -6] best regards, Auge

Same here, nothing changed in over half a month for now (registered my own root server, not a rented gameserver). Is it possible that they got a server cap? Maybe the hive is overloaded or they just got not time for approving all the recent requests?

Yeah, waiting for my ID / files for over a week now, seems that they got a lot of requests or just have no time for approval. Kinda annoying...

They are still online, restarting the server for item duping and banning every player who disconnects during fight - and they disconnect if shot... No chance that a server gets blacklisted because of admin abuse. Admins out there, i think for the moment you can do whatever you want. Have fun! -.-*

Good, now get out even more of it and enjoy the final post. (Cookies are fine, though.) Some leaked infos. A good friend of mine decided to help me, so we infiltrated their clan and got a privat chat with one of their members in teamspeak. And what we got is exactly what we expected. Simple-minded people are simple to outwit. :D From here on i'll translate all the important text passages for you, original screenshots as hyperlinks below. --------- First he introduced himself as a girl who is a little bit bored and got no mic. He asked a bit about the games they play and got a talk about dayz (said he doesn't know that game). Then the fun started. 01:17:40 EVIL: Yes and the clan-server will get a problem soon. 01:19:47 Mate: Why? 01:19:53 Mate: Because of bandits? 01:20:01 EVIL: I think I'm not allowed to say that to you. 01:20:11 EVIL: Just look into the forums 01:20:23 EVIL: And then to ban appeals 01:20:43 EVIL: Luckily i wasn't with them. 01:22:03 EVIL: found? 01:22:13 Mate: I have to read 3 pages now 0_o 01:22:13 EVIL: My PC gets veeery loud in a moment 01:22:25 Mate: I'm very bad in english 01:22:26 EVIL: Need definitly a new fan 01:22:31 EVIL: Let's say it so 01:22:38 EVIL: a few of them cheated 01:22:53 EVIL: and they had a camp where all stored 01:22:54 EVIL: was 01:23:05 EVIL: One found it 01:23:21 EVIL: And uploaded a video 01:23:31 Mate: Why should anybody cheat there? 01:23:41 EVIL: For example spawn a heli 01:23:42 Mate: What i've read is, if you die everything is gone 01:23:52 Mate: Then it's useless 01:23:53 EVIL: They are actually disabled 01:23:59 EVIL: It's fast 01:24:08 EVIL: And a good means of transportation 01:24:24 Mate: There are helis? <3 01:23:30 EVIL: Actually not 01:23:58 EVIL: And they did found a hackerspawn and hacked weapons there --- ... [Not worth the translation] ... --- 01:32:48 Mate: You got no guys who throw out the cheaters? 01:33:12 EVIL: No our guys were the cheaters -,- Sorry dude, trapping you was funny as hell :D LINKY: http://auge.xfs-host.../dayz/part1.PNG http://auge.xfs-host.../dayz/part2.PNG ------------------- Useless to add more text down here. Good night everybody and stay safe! ;)

I made one, waiting for an answer since they banned me. But its really hard to show you hard facts - for example these guys spawning vehicles or actually banning for nothing directly recorded - because i cant record and watch them all day long. The longer this lasts the more i think this is a bit of a freeform for all server admins to do whatever they want to. Nobody can do a sh** about it, the dev's response time is waaay too long. But its not a problem of the dev's or the creator of this mod, this is a problem placed in the community / people who play it. Since i opened this thread i got dozens of PM's to give out the locations of the camps with cheated loot, almost everytime they write something about "want to destroy that camp". Hell yeah who cares, you are just some more cheater like parasites that want to get "rich" by abusing the system. The devs dont care about some ppl abusing the system as long as the mod isnt finished at all, they got other things in mind. If they fix the duping bugs and all the other ones, this problem will fade out.

@1: Yes sir, you are completely right. I we found your camps using a maybe hacked chopper - which we got from YOU after we killed you and your 3 clanmates @ NE airfield after your landing. @2: Serverhopping is a damn thing. I was really annoying to fight you and your mates logging on and off all the time. Maybe one of us disconnected a bit too early. But you and your mates disconnected AND ghosted all the time. Funny to see how you are angry after we blew up your camp :P And for cheats, can you tell me how you got my name the first time you banned me while i was flying your chopper? Nametags are disabled. Ok and now this is an official war declaration on your server and your [//edit "clan" missing here] until it gets blacklisted. (<--Please do it FAST!) 15 kills for us for now, 2 for you. You see, cheating doesn't make you better. Last answer to you, i'll follow the rules "don't feed the troll".

OK guys here you go: As you can see, some hacked in stuff, lots of duped or cheated loot, a dead body of their clan (they said they dont know any base on their server? hahahah) and the servers tag. And this is only 1 of 2 camps, the second one got all the other vehicles from dayz. Later this day we killed their clan - INCLUDING ALCATRAZ - several times in this camp, can upload it too if you wish. Funny thing was, every time we killed them they got there in about 10 minutes - this camp is far up north beyond the printed map border. We shot them from 600m away, all 4 shot back in about 2 seconds. How the hell could they know from where we were shooting (out of the forest)?!? At the end we looted all of their satchels and blew up the base (BIG BOOOOM with >50 satchels :D - see picture below) Now you got your proof, please blacklist their server and ban the whole clan, especially Alcatraz126 and the GM guy. Damn hackers.
