  1. I killed a guy at NWAF a couple hours ago, no hacks or illegal items just an old fashioned CZ 550 Snipe, clear the area and then log off. 

    When I tried logging on just now it says I've been banned.

    My guess is the person I killed was connected with the admins and got angry that he lost his gear.

    Please investigate and punish the injustice if necessary.


  2. Can someone please fill me in as to why US 3480 has been down recently?

    It's always been a high populated vanilla server for public hive with admins always on looking for hacker/cheaters to ban, and really enjoyed playing on it.

    Now that it's been offline I've resorted to using server US 1257 Public Hive, although it has a password on it currently and I was under the impression that passwording public servers was against the rules.

    So TL;DR, can someone please explain why US 3480 is down, and when it will be back?

    P.S. This is for DayZ Mod vanilla.


  3. Hey guys,

    Since this is my first time hosting a server, with the release of the new patches. So my question is pretty simple.

    How do I properly update my Private Hive server hosted by HFB so it runs the latest ARMA2 version patch and 1.7.7?

    I tried attempting to do this myself, but all I was able to do was update the Arma2 version patch.

    Everytime I tried updating to 1.7.7 from the Updates section, it seemed to uninstall the mod itself from the Mod Manager section.

    Any tips on how to avoid this?

    Thanks,

    James


  4. Hey everyone,

    After a lot of headaches, my private server is finally up and running! The information is:

    Name: DayZChernarus - (1.7.6.1/102591) - Hosted By JC and Company | HFBServers.com

    IP: 173.208.85.82

    Port: 2312

    Query Port: 2312

    Slots: 50

    The admins including myself will be fair, hacking is not tolerated, and we want everyone to have a good time!

    Bring your friends and lets kill some zombies....... and people!


  5. Hey everyone,

    I just bought a Private Hive server from HFB so my friends and anyone else could play on a server without the usual hacking/ghosting problems.

    I thought I configured everything correctly, read all the material I could to help me set the server correctly, but something isn't working still.

    When you load into the server and it takes you to the lobby, you have to sit through a timeout every time. Once the timeout expires it takes you to the next black screen, where you would normally have a map. But you never get farther than that black screen, you just sit there forever.

    I contacted HFB and they reinstalled my server, but it didn't fix the problem. So does anyone know how to fix this, or know someone or something that I can read that would fix this problem? Otherwise I'm probably going to try a different server company.

    Any help is appreciated.


  6. Ahh yeah thanks man, that did the trick.

    However I'm having more problems. I joined the server and after the lobby screen it brought me to where the map usually is. (wasn't there because I don't have one equipped)

    But it never went past that screen and into the actual game, it just let me sit at a black screen for a while until I disconnected. Any idea why?


  7. Hey guys,

    So I just bought a private hive server to keep the hackers out and the honest players in. My buddies and I were tired of getting cheapened out of our lives.

    Anyways, I bought the server, set everything up, went to launch the server, and after I started it up, none of us could find it on the DayZCommander server list. I'm pretty sure everything is configured correctly, so we're not sure why it won't show up on the list. Is there something extra I have to do for my server to show up on DayZCommander? Or am I missing something else completely?

    Here is my server information:

    Name: DayZChernarus JC and Company - (1.7.6.1/102591) - Hosted By HFB | HFBServers.com

    IP: 173.208.83.202

    Port: 2332

    Query Port: 2332

    Slots: 50

    Any help is appreciated!


  8. Yeah this is interesting. I knew of several camp sites that belonged to a clan. They abandoned DayZ for Guild Wars, so I continued to raid their supplies knowing they'd be back after a server restart. A few days ago I checked them, and all the camps belonging to the clan were completely wiped, apparently the clan did this intentionally to hide their evidence of duping hacked weapons and potentially hacking them in themselves.

    Now they are back on their server, with a password on it. Funny thing is, they passworded a public hive server.

    Gee I wonder what they're doing ;)


  9. I've done the, "Hey, lets murder newbies off the coast!" usually for fun, but there is a legitamate reason for it as well. We were sniping/spotting people in Elektro on the Hospital roof one day, and a guy hears us and starts talking to us over Direct Channel. We warned him that if he came up there we were going to shoot him, even though he said he was friendly and unarmed, and when he reached the roof it was apparent he had no primary weapon and the patrol pack wasn't enough to hide a primary. We killed him anyways, and found that he had a pistol with enough ammo to take us out.

    It's not the fact that they're not threatening, it's the notion that they have the potential to be your death, so that's when the kill or be killed mindset kicks in. Mind you we haven't done things like that in several weeks now, too busy chasing after vehicle spawns. But there's always the chance that they can come back and kick you in the ass as soon as you let your guard down.


  10. Okay so my friends and I settled on US 633 a while ago, and we've done quite well for ourselves as far as making camp and obtaining adequate transportation. Over the past week or so, however, the server has become severely unpopulated for the most part, and it seems to be stemming from the massive FPS lag that's hit the server lately. It seems isolated to that server, seeing as how I can play on several others with smooth FPS at the same graphics. The server also provides host info, such as being hosted by BLU.

    I'm wondering if I can contact the server host and ask when or if they're going to update the server, has anyone else tried this?


  11. Yea, I'll be here waiting on the get hit part.

    Maybe you should re-read my initial post and discover my awareness of yonder travels.

    Or explain how a month translates to a "few weeks".

    Anyways, despite your condescending tone, you as well seem to be missing the point.

    Were not talking about a feature patch. Were talking about a fast and easy hot fix to repair what some find to be a core mechanic.

    I do feel I have been patient. This patch has been broken since day 1 yet I hardly said anything. I still love the game. In fact, part of my frustration stems from providing the community with a server that no longer carries some features that were once enjoyed by many.

    I dont understand how it is beyond reason to expect a hot fix, not a full feature patch.

    Maybe it's because the issue at hand doesn't affect your enjoyment of the game so you by

    default render all other opinions and points moot and invalid.

    I do how ever award you "sir points" for trolling like a sir.

    I'm sorry, are you a professional coder or game designer who knows the ins and outs of how to fix broken code? If so I would like to see some credentials or some legitmate proof of this claim. Because if you're not, you are in no position to label anything as a "fast and easy hot fix". You don't know what Rocket and his team are having to deal with by isolating the problems you want fixed. If they haven't fixed it by now, it's probably not as "fast and easy" as you might think. I'm condescending you because you, like many others, are butthurt over the fact that things aren't going the way you want them to. The problem with people like you is you lack the capacity to see situations from different views other than your own. Rocket has a high demanding, stressful job who has more to worry about than some glitches in an alpha stage mod.

  12. It's quite funny how OP's thread is bringing out the "best" in people.

    OP is 100% correct with his assertions. The funny thing is, most of you are so far up Rocket's ass that even the light of logic can not, and will not, ever reach you.

    When this hot"fix" was first released on 8/10. The statement made, was that the real patch (1.7.2.3) would be out within the week. In fact, I remember it clearly.

    Rocket posted some snotty thread about how we bitched enough for it, so here it is. Followed by a statement about how we should not bitch if we could not find a server to play on, over the weekend.

    I also find it funny. How Rocket went from this guy of the masses. A real down to earth Joe. Then, when the game concept sold(out), Rocket decided to flip the script and slowly but surely (not so slowly) he became the very thing (seemingly) that he stated he wouldn't become.

    A corporate h00r. Now, I know I'll get a lot of guff for this, but it is the truth. It's been almost a month since the last "patch" and over what, two months since the last build patch? Enough is enough.

    I say to you, Rocket. Stop flying around to dinky conventions peddling your BS and start flicking those coding fingers. Or, better yet, hire a team with all the new found BIS money you have gotten. And don't BS -- I bet you sold the concept for a pretty penny along with creative control -- good on you for that one. The whole thing stinks and is on the verge of fizzling out.

    I'll laugh when a few developers, with real creativity and drive beat you to the punch and create something leaps and bounds above anything you could have thought of. I personally have lost faith in Rocket's words and I know I am not alone.

    It's time for Rocket to start owning up to his original statements. It's time to start placating to the right people. Not the corporate dickheads that just want to fuck your girl to death, just so they can say they put their mark on her.

    All we ask is fairness. And, the fair thing to do would be to finish what you started. No, not the standalone at another premium. But rather, finish the mod build and also put forth all your efforts into the standalone. I know this would take a team twice as long or just having a larger team working on it. Frankly, we don't care how you get it done. We just want it done. We are the consumer. We make or break you.

    Don't get shit twisted. This isn't about entitlement. This is about what is fair. DO NOT GO THE WAY OF CORPORATE BS.

    I will boycott just out of principle, if you do this.

    So, what have we learned? Well, we just want what is fair. We bought a stale game, to playtest a mod that is in Alpha. What is preposterous, is the fact that this mod will never leave alpha. I mean, why would it? From a business standpoint it doesn't make sense. Basically, JUST DON'T!

    Just do what you originally said you were going to do. Finish the fucking mod, and complete the stand alone for those that would want it. As it stands now, I will not buy the standalone unless you finish the mod, first and foremost.

    This should be everyone's stance. That is, if you are a real human being and not just some sycophantic pleb.

    That is all.

    "This should be everyone's stance. That is, if you are a real human being and not just some sycophantic pleb."

    ^^ Funny, I think Hitler expressed his beliefs in a similar way...


  13. OP, I hope you're aware that Rocket has been doing a substantial amount of traveling to various conventions and interviews, getting resources and building a network of people that will open doors for him and his standalone product. He's kind of a big deal, with creating an alpha build survival experiment/ anti-game that has had over a million players at least try the alpha experiment and all, which is more than a lot of free-to-play MMO's can say. If you can't be patient enough for him to postpone an update for a few weeks then you should find another game to play. Those of us here who were raised by our parents to not be spoiled brats who know they don't get everything they want or asked for don't want people like you sharing our experiences. I can guarantee that whatever game you leave DayZ for won't give you nearly the emotional experience that DayZ has given us all.

    Oh and for the record, Rocket has been caught multi-tasking between giving interviews and working on the DayZ mod at the same time, as well as working on the artifacting from hotel rooms while he's been away. Most devs would say fu*k it and take that time off, which says a lot about Rocket. Just saying.

    Talk shit get hit.


  14. Honestly?..

    I usually dont give a rats ass about vehicles, Bicycles FTW, but thats about it...

    The clan i'm currently in currently thinks vehicles are way more importen then fighting off a raiding squad/player,

    I do not like Vehicles :P

    I'm right there with you, it makes my day when I stumbled across a bicycle somewhere in the wasteland. I spend the next few hours just riding around enjoying the scenery :P. Unfortunately one of my two friends I play with is a pussy when it comes to firefights, and prefers to simply disconnect when being shot at. I'm usually the one that gets us killed because I like seeing a fight through to the end. He doesn't understand the concept of, "Cowards die many times before their death..."
