And it's shit. Back to eagerly await a stable non hack-able version of dayz.

And it's shit. Back to eagerly await a stable non hack-able version of dayz.

Gotta hand it to them tho.. even if it fails, they still made a good chunk of money from it. IMO they got nothing of what Rocket is doing with dayz, they just make a halfassed copy, really - Rocket has nothing at all to fear from these guys.

$30 flushed down the toilet. The money itself is not a big deal, i'm just disappointed it did not live up to its expectations.

But you got it all wrong Sir, this is not a competitive FPS á BF3 etc. I've also as you say had my fair share of cfg editing and mousefix hunting since the mid 1990's when Quake was released. One simply has to adept and understand that this product is not another BF3/COD or whatever you want to compare it against.

ARMA2 is a combat simulator. DayZ is a zombie killing sandbox. Deal with it.

Since DayZ is not your ordinary Battlefield 3 or BlackOps game where you play - die - play - rince and repeat until you are bored, but instead you migh play for hours and days just to get that precious high end gear just to suddenly be teleported and killed by some noname angry kid. Don't get me wrong tho, I understand the issues with ARMA2 engine and how it works, i'm actually talking about the finished product of Standalone DayZ. Maybe people won't be able to spawn a helicopter and 10 bodyguards going rampage in elektro, but i can bet you anything that there will be hacks within a week after release. Not sure I'm willing to sacrifice so much time if there is no real plan from the devs on how they will counter hacks. The DayZ competition (you know what im talking about) they released some info on what they plan on anticheat and prevention that sounded pretty promising. I mean DayZ "Standalone" will still be using a stripped down version of the "Real Virtuality" engine that powers ARMA2. And I don't care if Battleye bans X amount of people, the harm to us players are already done.

Hells yeah, I found it... now lets go fuel this shit up :D

So what is the sweetspot to repair then? I tried for like 30minutes now, i even broke a bone and passed out for 5minutes when trying to find it... holy fuck, harder than to find the wifes g-spot!

After some trouble i finally found some spare parts, took it with me for the long trip to the island which i previously had scouted.. But that fucker refused to be repaired? i even tried another server but i could not get the repair broken shit to come up. Is there a difference in heli repairing vs car? Wasted afuckinglot of time collecting this stuff and getting it out there lol, i'd hate to fail now when i'm so close

That first one is not a global batlteye ban, its a kick message from your bans.txt So he's only banned form your server for some reason.

Well, until we are put in that situation we can't know for sure. However I'm pretty confident i would never kill anyone coldhearted by laying with a sniper rifle 1000m from the biggest city just for fun. I would concentrate on surviving. Nor would i run around like a maniac in said city shooting at everything that moves. But I guess there would be a small % of the earths population that would actually go at it with the intentions to just Murder people.

I hear you buddy, but it's a hard problem to get rid of. Ofc in a real life zombie apocalypse people wouldn't go around killing every living thing they saw, but this is a videogame and hard to control those things in a sandbox game like this. However i'm sure rocket is trying to balance it all, and that the final product will be as good as it gets. Hang in there!

The cheaters problem is really fucking huge right now. No matter what server I join there is either a fucking airplane flying around or cars playing GTA in cherno or i just instantly dies for no fucking reason at all. Its a fucking bitch to find the real high end gear (nvg, gps etc..) so after playing hours and hours and finally find something after running for ages and looting until your eyes bleed, just to be instantly killed by someone executing a script is bullshit. Whenever I crave dayz now (which is less and less every day because of this problem) i'm just hanging around cherno/elektro to find a handgun and play Battlefield in there. that is fun for about 10 minutes tho.. I guess there is nothing much to do for the developers regarding this since arma has all these scripts built in from the start. Will probably play on and off for a while but not try the real survival deal again, its just not worth the time invested.

Should have frapsed it, slapped some dubstep on it and uploaded to youtube twitter facebook kazaa piratebay usenet. Because this story is just too unbelievable to be true.

No doubt the devs are well aware of the problems, but to "FIX" stuff you can't just press a button to make it magically be awesome and well balanced. You have to focus on one thing at a time.. you say you know it's aplha "blablabla" then fucking act like you know. Everything you say basically contradics in to a major clusterfuck that actually means that you want the game to be as you please. So let me tell you Sir, before you reply with something even more illogical - Welcome to The Apocalypse!

You don't really get it do you? It might have worked flawless with internal testing with maybe 10-30 people. But released to the masses and the hive it might struggle, i guess you have no clue how coding works. All i can do is redirect you to TheIllusiveMan's post, that should sum it up real good.

yeah, all these ungrateful kids. would you like it better if rocket removed all servers, made it a closed alpha for ppl he know only and have it polished and ready to go maybe a few years further down the road instead of having the fun you can with it now, accept that it's buggy and help develop one of the best games/mods ever created? get over it and be a man, nobody will hear your tears in the middle of the wilderness with only one can of beans left.

Ok, sorry for stealing this topic. But for some reason i cannot start my own thread. The thing is that my server is stuck in a "creating" mode.. it seems online and all but the status does not change from creating to playing. I've tried a vilayer ticket 24hrs+ ago, no answer. Tried to message Johnny on Skype, no answer. So i see a few other servers who are in this state, but most seem to get to playing eventually.. mine does not. Can someone shed some light for me? what is going on?
