Avean (DayZ)

Yeah it makes you sad when you have to work for many weeks getting stuff like that if youre "lucky" and these guys are sitting munching cheezy poofs, laughing and farting and just spawning stuff in matter of seconds.

I checked the place out just now, they have removed every tent or someone have destroyed them. Dont know ....... these guys are not playing by the books, thats for sure. They have also restarted the server like 6 times this past hour so i think they have been fighting with someone destroying theyre tents perhaps.

Its not going to work, DayZ is all about realism. The other day my group encountered an enemy at night time. My friend got extremely nervous so he ended up shooting me when i was running towards him. His nerves got to him. Thats how it should be, this is not Battlefield 3.

There is no way in hell even a group of 20 players can gather up 30 tents with 10+ weapons of each type in tents like this. Even Camping Tent is a rare item and they have like 30+ something tents ...... + alot of vehicles. Seems like the server is quite full now which is rare for a US server at this hours....good luck hunting them!

Definetely exploited.

I've thought long and hard how the problem with everyone killing anyone on sight could be fixed, and i imagined myself in a world with tons of zombies and how hard it would be to fight them off alone. The problem right now since zombies movement are so ridiculous and theyre attacks so weak we can just run through an entire city, aggroing 20-30 zombies and survive by either luring them into a small opening to take advantage of theyre dumb AI, or just log off and login again to "reset" the zombies. Imagine if zombies were smarter and more dangerous up close. Right now they just slash you and you loose a bit blood, but in reality that would mean you would be dead already. Getting slashed by a zombie will make you infected if we are to follow any zombie movie to date. So if Rocket fixes the zombies, making them more dangerous and smarter, i am sure people will start to cooperate instead of killing each other. Many players now are killing other players cause zombies are basicly just placeholders right now, they are not scary or pose any threat whatsoever. So i hope zombies gets fixed soon and making them alot more dangerous, that will change the mentality of players BIG TIME.

Yeah the team behind the most realistic and tactical military simulator are indeed idiots ......... (:sarcasm:) Rocket has probably the best team possible behind him.

I guess OP forgot that its not only Rocket anymore, he got Bohemia Interactive behind him. He has a full team.

It will not work as the player name is not unique, its whatever your profile in Arma is called so they can change easily.

haha great :D I usually put on some music about harmony and peace and play it through direct communication.

What you mean ? You can put tents in wilderness as long as its on the map and not outside of it.

Thought this patch would fix performance and tents. Now ive got worse performance, tents are still not saving and we got graphical glitches ............

Just tested 1.7.2.4 and revolved requires now 4 shots to kill them unless you hit headshot. Before it was just 1 shot and they were dead with revolver. This is actually good in terms of zombie lore, like Walking Dead tv-series they had to hit zombies in the brain to kill them, other movies they would dismember zombies heads to kill them. Now here is the problem cause we are playing on Arma 2 engine. This game has terrible zombie animations making headshots incredibly difficult. You have to run backwards and let the zombie actually hit you before taking the headshot. This weapon nerf is good AFTER zombie animations are fixed, not now.....

My tents just reverted yet again, it saved 1 item out of 8 i put in it. It seemed to survive the server restart but quickly just reverted to a previous save.

Will Rocket revert the changes ? Im not playing before its fixed. Tons of servers have gone back to 1.7.4.3 as well. Whats going on ?

Any word on when weapons will be fixed again ? Since it was introduced with the Arma patch ? revolver takes 4 shots to kill zombies. Not playing and wasting my ammo on this.

Really agree with this thread, they must make zombies harder so people have to cooperate or die basicly. Dont need more zombies, we just need harder zombies. But i think that will be kinda hard seeing how they have done zombies so far, they are just waypointing to you. Dont think they have no control over animation or the glitching ........ its just a mod.

Not only tents but fences also. I cleaned up Bezino yesterday which was full of fences around stores and apartments. After server restart every fance was back and i have also lost everything ive looted. Great.

Its not against the rules, they dont ban people for that. There are many reasons to quit the game and disconnect.

No point in doing that before they can keep hackers away from the game. People are still mass teleporting, spawning in whatever they want.

What you mean by "UH1 will be added to vehicles". Has it been added or not ?

NW Airfield will always be a risk cause its impossible to cover all angles. Barracks, Fire Station, Hangars are all extremely unsafe and so easy for bandits to be hiding. On top of that, even if you have 5 people covering angles, there is the chance of server hopps. They see you, switch servers and end up behind you. Also many people are not looting these airfields anymore, they are hiding there waiting for YOU to show up with gear they dont have. Especially at night time, they probably have NVG's and waiting for that one guy with flashlight.

hehe this is what happens if players enters Arma 2 with the mindset of Battlefield 3. Your every movement and breath counts in this game, its alot more advanced than you think. You need to watch tutorials, its too much to cover in a thread. DayZ is the best game experience youll ever play trust me, its a reason why half a million is playing this suddenly.

Yeah i agree, the game is already an MMO so i think they will add it in the future. But right now the game is struggling with tents not saving, hackers almost everywhere and stuff simply not working. They need to fix the basics of the game first before they add in cosmetics.

Its very quiet there compared to cherno and elektro, but after this thread im not so sure anymore :P
