The Carnivore

Painkillers seemed to work for me. Oddly I only noticed the shaking after taking damage from zeds punching me.

Hopefully this sort of thing will lessen once The Infected become more prevalent. There will always be players with that mentality, as well as KOS'ers (and honestly I have done more than my share of KOS)...it's the nature of the beast. I'd like to see a server with the 100's and 100's of zombies in each city that the dev team once spoke of as possible; where the sheer volume of them drawn to noises you make will be the most prevalent danger. If I could, I'd code the server such that zombies in proximity to you would be block you from logging out, with a death penalty if you deconned. You could climb to safety on top of the fire station, for example, but you'd have to literally wait for the hoard to disperse, or be pulled away by another player's noise. Additionally, I could get behind a server with a YOLO rule...if you die, you get auto banned for one day, one week, etc....whatever the server owner perfers. One day would be cool with me. If you were lone wolfing, death would mean no hope for recovering your gear. If you team up with people, that means they have to do with out you for the next 24 hours. Zombies should congregate around your corpse, devouring you and keeping someone who murdered you from reaching your gear without effort (drawing the zeds off with noise, or having enough ammo to deal with them all, etc.) These are just random ideas, but after countless hours in both the mod and now SA, I can tell you as so many have, your experience is not just your own, and many of us yearn for a game that is more than just the murder simulator we have at this stage. I think the move towards more survival aspects is a good step.

I'd like a different way to store items. Tents are very easy to spot, especially from the air. How about we be able to loot footlockers (small 25 slot ones from residential, and larger 40 slot ones at military barracks) instead of or in addition to tents? Then, I'd like the option to bury it. Add a metal detector to grocery stores and residential loot, perhaps needing scrap metal to repair or batteries to operate, so that you can find the foot lockers (with a short range) if you spend a lot of time looking. You'd of course need a entrenching tool to bury or dig the foot locker up.

Your boy [AG-S] TriPsh0t31612 seems to like the server well enough. He's on right now. (EDIT : Sorry, that really has nothing to do with anything else.) I can say, with all honesty, that I have never shut down the server to avoid a kill being registered. Nor, to my knowledge, has anyone else with Admin access to the server. I have, however, shut it down almost instantly when a Thunderdome happens, and some people have been lucky enough to not have their day ruined since the hive wasn't updated. Whom did the AG member kill? The name would have been in the death message. Carnivore

I don't suppose this is in response to [AG] HDKat being banned for teleporting 3 days ago?

The server was down for a while as we were waiting for a hive wipe. All those international hotel's spawning in like tin cans! Did a real number on us. We've been back up for a while though.

..........bump

I beg to differ. By the way, you never sent me (via PM or any other means) your GUID, which I would need to check the logs. Names can be changed, but your GUID is gold.

The military flashlight cannot be put on your shoulder in standard DayZ, to do so requires a hack, a script to make it happen. You may have simply been banned for running a script of any kind not allowed in standard DayZ. Being able to put that on my shoulder in DayZ Lingor rocks though, and I wish it was in standard SayZ as well.

I got no problem whatsoever with anyone hunting underequipped, easily killable new-spawns in the coastal cities; thats just part of the game. But 99.5 percent of the population (in my opinion) knows or should know by now that the only weapon with a thermal scope in DayZ is the L85. Use a legit weapon and I don't care what your playstyle is.

Right back at ya son.

I'll translate : "I've been caught using illegitimate weapons and was kicked, or teleported/spawned in items and was banned, so I can no longer play on this server."

Yes, and many of them are far less administered than ours.

Hyperbole much?

Alex, I have kicked and/or one-day banned you on no less than 3 occasions for sporting an AS50 TWS on our server (not sure about other admins doing the same to you), so before you come on the forums and disparage the admins of US866, I'd suggest you stop using illegitimate items, no matter the method you have of acquiring them (a tent on US866 or another server, spawning it yourself, having someone spawn it, etc.). Warmonger, If you are posting in this forum to get a ban lifted, PM me the last four digits of your GUID. If you're not just server bashing, try posting in the Cheat Reporting forum (http://dayzmod.com/f...heat-reporting/), where I believe video or screenshots are required as proof. Thanks, Carnivore US866 Admin

Interestingly, to me, I wiped my HDD and reloaded the OS, drivers, steam, arma2CO and dayz and now am not experienceing the artifacting at all.

I am still getting artifacting from the dead soldier bodies. Checked at the NWA just after US866 was updated.

Tears of in fathomable sadness! Let me taste your tears, they're so yummy!
