☣BioHaze☣

My rig is now over 2 years old, and was not top of the line. My CPU never seems to be a problem, but beginning this summer my GPU (GT 240) began overheating. I used a program called Kombuster to verify this and it was obviously my GPU, games like Skyrim, and Dirt 3 really fried the thing. Apparently the temperature in my room make a big difference when it comes to my GPU (as stated above). I also have a cooler master case, and I make sure to clean as much dust out as possible regularly. But, the only way I found that am able to play for extended periods of time this summer was to pop open the left side of the box and I put a Honeywell brand turbo blade desk fan (very strong fan) right up to the opening in the case. I haven't had an overheat problem since.

I posted this last night in the 95883 thread.....

If you're using Six Launcher you can effectively roll back to 95417 by opening the launcher, verifying, then patch to 95417, and launch.

Me too. :( Everything seems to load fine and then freezes on "Loading" with no progress bar. Halp?

It depends on your "play style". It took me a month to see a hacker, but I'm pretty sure I saw one now. If you want to have more PvP, camp certain high traffic areas. Cherno, Electro, Balota Airfield, NW Airield, etc. I personally spend as little time as possible in those areas to avoid all the player killing. Currently Day 7.....

Innocently tries to sniff out vehicle spawn. Suddenly, a river of the infected....

Great job with this thread. You also display a lot of patience with all the people trying to add themselves, when the rules make it clear that it isn't allowed. And to answer someones question from before, a new trader would have to try to trade with established traders, or find a player willing to make a post on the forum after a successful trade, to build their own cred. If I ever can bring myself to part with my lucky satchel charge, this list could come in handy. Bear meet Beans. Edit to say: The name of this thread could be, "Traders and Traitors".

At approx 2:50pm EST I logged into US1888 "Paradise" with only maybe 5 others playing and after loading I was shown a brief perspective from the grass as if I had been killed, then the green death stats screen popped up, and the game said I was killed. Following that the game loaded itself, and I was immediately teleported to debug plains with no items standing next to a female survivor who was in freelook shaking their head, or looking around. I quickly logged out, and into another server to find myself at a common spawn point like a new spawn, but I thankfully had all my days, kills, and gear. I'm not sure if this is relevant but I did have to force my computer to shut down during my last game of DayZ on this same server when my video card overheated. I think this is just a coincidence though, I don't think a game crash would send you to debug with another character.....

I like this idea. Have some beans.

I've done well to avoid them altogether for nearly a month now. High pop/PvP and clan servers are usually the main targets of the script kiddies. Avoid those servers and you improve your chances for a "clean" game.

Sucks. Hopefully a solution to hopping will be implemented before the stand alone.

Could possibly have been looted prior to you arriving. Could be spawn lag or random bug. Or no loot was supposed to spawn.

I recently decided to stop manually updating and wait for Six Launcher to do an auto update. I believe Six Launcher doesn't push out a patch until it's confirmed working properly.

I only just found my first pair of NVG's in a camp. For me I found it's the only way I can tolerate the game at night. I find the constant gray scale of regular night to be terribly boring to watch. At least in green I can make things out. Buzzing the NW airfield and Electro on a motorcycle with NVG's on, watching the other players scatter as I agro the zombies = good fun.

I like that, but it should definitely be very very slow. I also believe you shouldn't dehydrate for three days. Or die of starvation for 10!

Try to have some fun gearing up. Find a camp, steal some loot, and a vehicle. You'll be out transfusing blood again in no time.

Just because you have the ability to do something, doesn't mean you should. I am capable of robbing a bank, but that doesn't make it the right thing to do.

I was just playing on a server when a message popped up announcing the bans. Moments later myself and other players were bumped out to the lobby and then the game quickly reloaded. When reloaded it said [AGT]fir3fox was kicked for script restriction. Just before this another player tried to join but was kicked for global ban. Moments later the reload to lobby happened again and the fir3fox player was back. I just now logged out of that server. On this same server I found an obvious guild camp with 10 tents and seemingly all legit weapons. I walked west and found they had walled in a bus with sandbags and there were 2 tents with sniper rifles that do not belong in the game. I blew up one with a frag grenade but missed the other. Sorry I cant remember the server name....

I spawned, immediately found a Mountain Dew, and shortly thereafter I was killed. I never even found a weapon, let alone had a chance to drink it. The End

Asshole, the title of the thread isn't "I'm here to report the hackers I just witnessed." I read a nice article on cyclotouring this afternoon, and then I did 20 miles around the city in this heat for a little exercise. Soooo, I'm well read today, and had plenty of outdoor activity, thanks. BTW, I've worked for Nintendo and Ubisoft, in sales and testing capacities, so why don't you fuck off.

thanks, why so literal? you know what I meant. "but I've never used a *hacked script in my life." fixed?

All of the times I was shot while saying "friendly" were worth the first friendly encounter I had.

Wrong. It doesn't happen to me, and I care. These scripters are flaccid prick griefmongers who will have their day in court, eventually. (Even if it just means we have to wait for the stand alone.)

Yes! Because I'm never on servers where the hackers even go! I've never been thunderdomed, teleported, transformed, or had a cow dropped on me. Once, I may have been insta-deathed. You can figure out which servers are hacker bait with a little deductive reasoning.

So glad my survivor play style helps me to avoid them. They loooove the PvP tough guy tears.
