Fraggle (DayZ)

If you haven't already take a look here: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/38476-the-one-line-questions-for-rocket-thread/ It will give you a better idea of some of the work going into the standalone.

The whole loot spawn system is being re-written as we speak, so it will be completely different. Problem solved.

I'm pretty sure I played an Arma multiplayer mission last year where progress was persistent. When you died, you lost all progress. I may have been slightly drunk though.

Nice vids!

Not me officer, I was indoors watching telly, I promise ;)

Lol, he asks some decent enough questions but it would be nice if people made some effort, that thread has been stickied for ages purely to answer these sorts of questions...

Apparently it can help protect from small arms fire but i think the overall effect is negligible. Not sure if anyone's actually done some tests though, would be nice to know.

^^agreed^^. My current character is 6 hour old :( . Oh well, back to the drawing board....

Here you go: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/38476-the-one-line-questions-for-rocket-thread/ Have a read. That's the most recent questions Rocket has answered from the community, it should clear a few things up for you...

Do you have a way of contacting the Admin? The best thing you can do is get in touch with them and explain your situation.

I voted survivor. After a long time spent as a medic and usually a hero I've recently changed my game style towards being more of an opportunist. I still try and help noobs and I always leave fresh spawns alone but the further north I go the more likely I am to kill some one if they pose any type of threat or are driving a nice shiny vehicle I need.

Phew, case closed.

You need acces to the ban logs and you need to remove your own GUID from the ban list. Then figure out why it believes you to be a hacker.

Try again and see if the software parses your logs correctly this time.

It may have been the anti-hax software, parsing the log's wrong.

The Bizon is Legit, if you're ever unsure just check the wiki.

Here's Rockets thoughts on the matter: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/520-the-pvp-discussion-thread/page__st__180#entry4308

It's just what they enjoy doing I'm afraid. That's the beauty of DayZ, you can find a role you enjoy and go for it. It's always frustrating being sniped but there are ways to make it harder for them. Better luck next time!

This mod is a testing ground for ideas. Rocket is the first to admit that some of these ideas have failed. As far as I know they do have plans for making teamwork more important but the pvp element will always remain. Don't forget also that it wasn't designed to be used on those custom maps so they often skew it even further towards the pvp fest due to their layout. Also, many people are just bored and resort to pvp because they've done everything else to death. The standalone will address this by having far more content and concentrating more on survival. I agree with you about the balance being off at the moment and I know the devs are aware of it, I guess like many other issues with the mod the answer is to wait for the standalone to see what they come up with. It's not an answer many are happy with but that's just how it is. Hers's Rockets thoughts on PVP and why DayZ is the way it is: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/520-the-pvp-discussion-thread/page__st__180#entry4308

Standalone. Back on topic please.

You can't get globally banned but it is within the admins rights to ban you for carrying hacked weapons. As a rule of thumb, just leave them alone.

I play on a 3dp off server and it's frequently full. Anyhoo, how is this debate still going on? Surely just leave the choice open, case closed.

*cough* Looks like OP is as sick as everyone else of repetative threads... Is there a cough going round?

Pretty much any reply in regards to your question would be pure speculation so I guess patience is key.

Pobeda damn is nice this time of year. Also noobs like to place camps there.
