    Secondary Melee Weapons

    it's just because the original Arma engine doesn't support melee weapons so they've had to improvise. It'll get sorted eventually.

    map question

    The different monitor thing is referring to the map you can collect in game I think. Seems a bit over the top. I use the Wiki map: http://dayzwiki.com/wiki/Gmap/beta/gmap.html. This plus a compass works a treat. Just Alt-TAB back and forth. If you have an in-game map you can also open a mini-map display so no need for 2 monitors.
  3. A dog pissed on my leg once, that made me feel like a tree.

    Vehicles

    I hate the hoarders too but I don't agree with the 30 min idea. If you find a vehicle you should be able to keep it as long as you can keep it safe. The only option you have is to track them for as long a you can. At least get a rough direction. If your lucky they'll lead you to their base. When there, take what you want and destroy everything else.

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Dark Screen/View

    Your framerate looks kind of low. Maybe your PC is struggling to run it?

    Multiple characters

    I quite like the limitation. It makes every decision you take with your character more important. You can still play on your own and arrange a meeting point with friends. I'm not sure what the official answer is though.

    Why are some servers darker at night than others?

    Fog/clouds/moon/twighlight. Loads of thing can affect the lighting levels at night. It's a pretty complicated lighting system. Underrated too in my opinion.
  9. It took me bloody weeks to find some matches. Supermarkets or a generous body are the way forward.

    Choppers? Thought they were taken out? hmm

    It's a hacker.

    A plea to Rocket: Fix What's Broken or Let Us Help

    Maybe there should be an area on the forums for server admins to collaborate/swap ideas/information. Some admins seem much better at dealing with hackers than others, maybe a pool of knowledge could benefit everyone.

    All (8) of our vehicles gone. How?

    That'll teach you for having a car showroom. Honestly, hacking sucks but I find it hard to sympathise with someone who has hoarded all these vehicles.

    Dark Screen/View

    Your problem is that you started on a server at night. Night in this game can be very dark, especially if there's no moon. You either need to equip your torch or try a different server that may be in daylight.

    Players camping towns for new players

    I've never been sniped as a noob. Not even near Electro. I suggest your doing something wrong.

    Arma 2 OA

    You can use the free version with OA but the textures for the graphics are lower resolution and so are some sounds. If it's not too much more I'd get Combined OPS.

    How do I prevent every problem?

    Try this: http://kodabar.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/how-to-install-dayz-with-arma-2-free.html Worked for me!

    General Ideas of improvements to DayZ

    Err, you sure you've been playing it since it "came out"?
  18. Fraggle (DayZ)

    Pvp, PvE, DM and so forth...........

    So your just gonna have a tantrum because people don't agree with you?
  19. Fraggle (DayZ)

    Pvp, PvE, DM and so forth...........

    As long as it's seperate from the PVP, hives then I've no major issues with it. Although what if people were to use it to learn specific areas of the map that would usually be more risky? In that situation, it could be used for "training" to gain an advantage. I like Day Z because everyone has to deal with the world and the same problems without the "customised" servers other games suffer from.

    Empty Landscape

    It sounds like you've got missing files. Try installing Arma again, a pain in the arse but I think it might work.

    Which survivor is the legit survivor?

    Wierd, I did read a post yesterday where the same thing happened to someone. I'd contact support.

    Weapons & Chernarus

    One of the things I always loved about Arma is the weapon variety and attention to detail in their behaviour. So yes, I agree with your post. More weapons please! Or even variations such as scopes ect. As you point out it's already there in the files.

    I got Ambushed...

    Now that's proper bandits. I wish all bandits had the balls to play it like this. You did the right thing, revenge will be sweet.
