    Special Event "Race day!"

    For the last one we called a ceasfire on the server for a few days, it gave people time to find and repair their vehicles. The next one looks like it's going to be a lot more popular so we may provide vehicles. We're discussing the rules now but we're thinking of having to swap vehicles half way. Lol, you need to brush up on ur trolling technique, that sucked. That's what makes it funny though. Everyone was carrying spares and still only 2 out of 8 vehicles finished.

    Special Event "Race day!"

    Cheers fella. I saw your ideas for the relay, that looks like it could work.
  3. Looks great, I'm loving the approach being taken. I notice in a couple of the shots the sun is shining through the windows. ATM the lighting indoors isn't very atmospheric (I think because it didn't run smoothly originally). Will the new engine allow for some cool indoor lighting effects?

    How do you do the surrender animation?

    I think you have to find it in your key bindings and then apply a key to it.

    The goal in Dayz should be survive, not pvp

    I think in order for us "day one" hipsters not to be eternally depressed we need to accept that the game needs to evolve and improve. Rose tinted glasses and nostalgia are always great but the fact remains that in the early days this mod was barely playable unless you had the patience of a saint. I agree that there was a more visceral survival experience for some. Go and speak to some people that have only just started to play, that experience still exists, only nowadays you don't have to wait half an hour for a server slot to become available.
  6. I didn't call you little girls. I said you were acting like little girls. Like I said, we don't have time to "clean" threads like this. If your not happy with this one, start a new one and we;ll delete this one.

    DayZ is a much better game with side chat enabled.

    Err, have you got any sources other than "most people" and "it seems to me"? No offence, I take your point but don't try and back it up with imaginary statistics :) .

    The goal in Dayz should be survive, not pvp

    The underground bases thing is a tad more than basically just camps, at least that is what they want. It's ambitious but I've seen talk of traps, hydroponics ect. and the possibility of it taking months if not years to build a substantial base. It's early dayZ but the plan is to make it a lot more than just a simple camp.

    Your above ideas are basically describing the ACRE mod. It's an amazing Arma mod that recreates radio's in game, complete with static, terrain variables and so on. Rocket has said he loves Acre but it would have to be a simplified version to work with DayZ.
  10. Hi guy's, this thread is for advertising a private hive, not bitching at each other like little girls. We really don't have time to moderate personal arguments so please try and moderate yourselves.

    Why does Day Z take forever to load?

    It should only take 10 seconds or so. Do you have a stable connection?

    40 min into my first ever game of dayz

    Moved. ^^What the hell kind of advice is that, lol?^^

    The goal in Dayz should be survive, not pvp

    The whole point is that there is no goal. It's a world in which you need to survive and can live however you like. BTW, the standalone does have mechanics being introduced to encourage team-play and there will be A LOT more to do, so PVP will become less appealing.

    Your Best DayZ Jokes?

    Knock knock. Who's there? Bandit guy. Bandit guy who? Just gimme your fucking beans and shut up pretending you can lock doors.

    Ok..i have not played Dayz..for dayz..

    WTF hat is that? Anyway. I lost my internet connection for 3 days (!) a few weeks ago. I hated it. I feel your pain!
  16. Fraggle (DayZ)

    DayZ is a much better game with side chat enabled.

    I think the problem with that is that they're trying to create a survival game. Having a mystical global chat box takes away that feeling of isolation. However, can you imagine finding your first radio and trying to find other peoples frequenicies, and then trying to figure out if you can trust them? See how much better that sounds?
  17. Fraggle (DayZ)

    Help?

    Have you installed them both correctly (using the keys) and run them both individually?

    Special Event "Race day!"

    We've only just started to arrange the next one, it's going well so we're hoping to make it a regular thing. It's a nice change to running around being paranoid. We're hoping to have a Bloodbath Weekend on a custom map too.

    All I can handle

    If you get lucky then you'll find a tent. Then you can store some gear. It makes it slightly less painfull when you die...

    Windows Wont smash

    Lol!!!!!!!. Sorry to laugh but it's the first time I've heard of people getting stuck in there. If I played on your server I'd sell tickets for people to come and look at you. If you've got an axe try that, throwing cans works too. If not, your doomed!

    Official DayZ Brony & Pegasister Meetup

    Hey, you guy's have got matching sigs? Nice.
  22. Fraggle (DayZ)

    Dayz art or garbage. YOU DESIDE!

    I might give it to my nan as an Xmas card. That'll confuse her.
  23. I'll keep a nice warm patch of grass for you ;) . Here's a shameless link to the last race vid too: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/100983-special-event-race-day/

    All I can handle

    I'm glad you stuck with it. TBH it doesn't sound like you need any advice. If I had to offer you some it would be to priorotise getting an axe, matches and a hunting knife. That way you can kill animals and cook the meat. When you eat it, it heals you.
  25. Fraggle (DayZ)

    DayZ is a much better game with side chat enabled.

    I strongly disagree. If you have active admins and good hax software there's no need to have side chat enabled purely as a means to communicate with the admin. Where I play we have TS and a shoutbox in the forums. These are barely needed though because the admins have ensured that hacking just isn't an issue on their servers.
