Could we possibly make it so that users cannot give themselves beans for their own posts? Seems like it kind of defeats the purpose of the system... For example, check out the user Anthrax12. :facepalm:

Kush, you can actually edit that setting.

Haha, I'll have to take your word for it. Believe it or not, I do not use Facebook. I feel so left out. :blush:

Uh...I almost hate to say it. Why did you add the feature? Thanks for the enlightening reply...

Ah sorry, missed that one. I didn't realize it had already been brought up.

Not trying to be rude, but there is a better place for you to post this kind of thread. I say this because it may get overlooked in General Discussion, and if what you are saying is true...they need to be reprimanded properly. Please move this or post this in the following section: DayZ >>> Servers >>> Cheat Reporting Anyhow, thanks for letting us all know, mate!

I was watching a fellow livestream on Twitch.tv yesterday, and some player ran up to him wearing Rocket's skin (the one with the red beret). The player dropped all kinds of hacked guns and ammo around the guy that was livestreaming. I guess he wanted to look cool on the Internet... Point being: those skins are hacks.

lolwut? so...much...fail... :facepalm:

Kill out of spite, and shoot on sight. :murder:

If he had any self control, he wouldn't have even posted his little "I could one-up you" remark. Even still, that was a great story OP, and hopefully you'll come back to play at some point. Cheers mate, this can of beans is for you! :beans:

I enjoyed your story. It is hard to define us bandits, as we are all a bit different...but doesn't it feel good to kill other players sometimes? I loved that you used a few noobs as meat shields to get that loot...that was a very wise move on your part. Being somewhat of a bandit doesn't feel too bad now, does it? :bandit:

Regardless, it was tons of fun. I didn't suspect any foul play. Just curious, I looked at the FOE website, but couldn't find anything about membership and it looked like the there was only one thread on the forums, but it was locked. I was just trying to see what your clan was all about and whatnot. Good battle and good times! Ya'll put up one heck of a fight, haha! ;)

I think I understand what you are trying to say...but maybe someone could translate this a bit better? I'm honestly not trying to be critical. I, too, hope there will be some way to counter the ALT+F4 and server hopping scourge. They are a disgrace to survivors and bandits alike... >:(

I first started playing DayZ after patch 1.7.1.5 came out, so I never knew what it was like to have started with a gun or anything. I had never even played ARMA I or II, but I knew I had to get DayZ. This is the story of my first day... I spawned on the coast and started to mess around with the controls. I had a mic, but I didn't know how to use the chat correctly. I stumbled into what I now know is the town of Balota. I got chased around by a few zombies while I familiarized myself with the controls. Another player who had a rifle showed up and killed the zombies that were beating me. The only thing I knew to do from watching YouTube was to salute so that he'd see I was friendly. He never exactly said anything to me, but he didn't mind that I followed him. I got my bearings...found some beans and a coke. I was just enjoying where ever we were going since I was new. We walked for probably an hour up some mountains and through forests, until we came to a small house at a dirt road. The man that I trusted shot me once in the leg and broke it. He bandaged me and left me there. It seemed like a pretty calculated move, and it completely took me by surprise. I was a bit pissed, but I decided to try and crawl back to the airfield outside Balota for help. The crawl back to Balota was long and treacherous...and part of me changed along the way. I no longer just wanted to merely survive. I wanted revenge on someone...anyone. I made it all the way to the airfield and found a hatchet. I equipped it and hid inside of a cargo crate that was in one of the large bunkers. I had figured out how to use the direct chat at this point. After waiting and waiting, I start to see two survivors approaching. However, they were jumped by someone in the small ATC tower, but they managed to take him down. I told them I was friendly, and I needed some help. As I crawled to the two survivors, some zombies aggro'd while one of them was giving me morphine and blood. One of the survivors was killed by a zombie during this event. As the other survivor went to take out the remaining zombies, I struck him in the back with my hatchet, and I didn't stop until he was dead. I killed the other zombies with my hatchet and took everything I could carry. After that, I knew there was no going back to just being a survivor... :ph34r:

No sir, I play as [DWP] TyRobot. DWP = Dead Workers Party from the Shaftlands Minecraft Podcast.

WTF are you on about? I've seen plently of people named Brian on the DayZ servers. ^_^

I'm not exactly a survivor, but I'll let you in on a little secret: - Regular servers have more people playing, so loot gets taken quickly compared to that of most Veteran servers - If you are a certain distance away from buildings that have been looted, after 10-15 minutes...the loot respawns (so long as no one gets within a certain distance in that 10-15 minute period)

Regardless of him being an admin, it sure smells like a hacker...

That's one hell of a kill, sir! :cool:

Haha, awesome! ...but, yeah I pretty much play with 2-3 other friends and shoot on sight now. ;)

I think there is a thread called like "Mountain Dew stories" or something like that lol. It is quite rare, indeed. Not to mention, quite tasty...

I tend to agree more with ZedsDeadBaby...I can't really get behind the whole server wipes per patch. At this point the game is just an experiment. Also, just because you are testing the game doesn't mean you can't play the game and enjoy doing both. People will always have something to complain about whether it is alpha, beta, or full release. I bought ARMA II: CO just for this mod. I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it; the good, the bad, and the ugly. The only issue I have at all is when people (not this OP) make threads telling the dev team what they should do. For example, I've seen tons of threads telling the dev team that zombies are not meant to be fast, but, rather, they are supposed to be slow and whatnot. Threads like those are not helpful nor are they suggesting improvement. Those types of threads are just full of QQing. Now, threads that point out bugs like the wire fence problem, item loss issues, and glitches are extremely helpful to the dev team. I'm just trying to survive, test, and have a little fun along the way.

At least the OP wasn't ragin and was quite calm in writing this...don't give up. There is good and bad in all us players...you just need to find a GOOD group of personal friends and do BAD to everyone else. I will say this...that was some major espionage work by that Bob fellow with the other group that was killing you. It sounded like he was setting all of you up multiple times.

I mean...uh...yeah...DayZ is mean to vegans, mm'k? Jesus Christ! :P

This really looks great. It was totally worth the wait :)
