ok well that solves the problem with the one chopper i have found. but what about the possibly endless numbers of illegal spawned vehicles that i didnt find and maybe other players found and now hide those in their camps ? i dont want those on my server!

LU160

well... in DAYZ the only avaible helicopter should be the UH-1H Huey (and even this one is not avaible atm). but i clearly saw a UH-1Y (the one with the miniguns and rocket lunchers on the side) parked right in stary next to the big red building. so what can i say ?

Hey, today sth happened to me that almost is leading to a "must have" improvement. i was having well equipped character living since 2 weeks. i was sitting around near the northwest airport and got bored. so i started to optimze graphic settings. i was swapping front and back from menu settings to game screen. and then BAM. back to the beach. i accidently hit the "respawn" button and my char suicided. well of course it was my mistake because i clicked it. but its the very next button to "options" and regarding the time and effort some ppl put into finding gear, killing as much zombies as possible or simply just SURVIVE as long as possible should have a chance to cancel such a missclick. being dead right away is not good. i would be very happy to see a warning like "are you sure you want to suicide and respawn yes or no" thingy. greetings sudden

word!

yes i guessed it was an arma thing and dayz might not be able to change it. but they could at least advise it to the arma dev team or ?

haha true

dear ladies and gentlemen, time of crime is between 17:00 and 20:00 german time . today is a sad day for my buddies and me. a couple of hours ago (LU160 Server) our camp (somewhere northwest map corner) was found, raided completly and nothing was left to use. we lost a VS3 civilian and a white offroad pickup truck. in addition to that we lost alot (and i mean ALOT) of equipment that where left in our tents. we are offering a certain amount of REWARDS (e.g. Mk48 Night Vision googles, svd camo etc....) to ppl supporting us in the investigation with supplying us with hints(eg vehicles spottet with directions ) leading the "bandits" responsible for it. WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE

haha never say never :D

true....ill never get used to attitudes like that

heres a story, very tense WORTH THE LONG READ me and my buddies had a few vehicles like a truck and stuff. one day a friend of mine who had just started playing dayz was fairly eqiupped at the beach. a buddy and me decide to take a truck and pick him up from the beach. so we drive along the very western roads towards the coast. our truck was getting low on fuel and we had barely any spare parts extra in case of sth brakes. so we come close the coast where my buddy was running towards us. he just fired his last bullets for his einfield defending himself against zombies so i told him to drop it because i had a FN FAL in the back of the truck for him. but since i did not want to spent more time needed near the coast i told him just to hop on and sit on the back of the truck next to my other body (i rather have them sit outside so 1) ppl can see that im not alone and 2) when the drivers cabine gets shot not two ppl die at once) so we are drving back north and aproach zelenogorsk. buildings of interest there where the supermarket, the powerplant and the tank station. so we approach there and i drop of my old buddy at the supermarket to get some loot. meanwhile the buddy we just picked up at the beach (no gun on him- FN FAL still in the truck) and me drive to the power plant (500m away) to quickly find some engine parts. while driving ther i noticed some "smoke" or "dust"in the air and i was thinking "hmm that stuff i usually only see from vehicles". but since the server was almost empty and we where in an area not so populated i made the mistake and did not think about it again.so i drive the truck to the front gate and got out. i told my buddy to stay in the truck since i only wanted to do a quick run by. my 2nd buddy was still in the supermarket. now the shit begins. so i get out of the truck and run inside the industrial buildings when all of a sudden, SHOTS FIRED at me. i did not see where it came from but just turned around and wanted to get away. then BANG, a bullet hits me. i was not dead but i was unconscious right away. i shouted to my unarmed buddy in the truck, GET ON THE DRIVER SEAT AND SAVE THE TRUCK ! so he sad on the driver seat and started the engine. that moment i hear a second engine turn on. my buddy in the truck shouts back at me "there is a offroad pickup and a second guy just hopped into it, SHIT SHIT SHIT THEY FOLLOW ME NOW ! (probably one was waiting in the car, the otherone somewhere outside and thats maybe the one who shot me). so they both drive off in a hurry ! my friend who was just completly new to dayz ended up in a car chase without any orientation where he was or where he should drive with no gun on him and not much fuel. i told him "just GO MAN GO DONT STOP". so he drives and my buddy at the supermarket saw them disapearing behind the hill. my buddy from the supermarket now rushed to the industrial compound to save me. i was bleeding bad and still unconcious. when he arrived at my place he tried to bandage my wounds. all of a sudden a zombies appear and bite him. now he was bleeding too. and he lost so much health that he would die from bleeding faster then me. so i told him to use his only bandage on him and go back to the supermarket to find another one for me. meanwhile the guy in the truck was living hell. the offroader that chased him tried everything. they pushed him off the road, drove in front of him to make him stop and fired hundreds of rounds at him. by now he drove through multiple field and woods and was completly lost and didnt know where to go. again we told him JUST KEEP GOING. but then he said he was on the very low red of fuel and had maybe like 5 more minutes before running out. my other buddy who ran to the supermarket got unconscious 2 times on the way and while looking for bandages (he was at 3500 health or so while mine was approaching 5000 and dropping since still bleeding). at approaching 5000 i decided to log out to save some health. but that was a BAAAD idea beacuase: a second later the truck driver said he is recognizing the area again and that he might be able to find back! what a message! so my buddy from the supermarket rushes over to the industry with bandages. i log back in and then...bam...punishment for loggin out while under shock. i have that 5 minute or what unconscious state. so my buddy runs over to me and bandages my wounds but im still unconscious. that moment the truck was back at our place and we wanted to make a trap with the target to shoot the following offroad truck. BUT im not even close to waking up.. not even close at all ! so we tell the truck driver to keep driving in circles around the city as long as he can ! he says that he has no more fuel and btw he got shot as well and was bleeding too ! what a fucking nightmare ! so he keeps drving and we hear all the gunshots since they could cut him off easy and fire at him. he says he is now coming to the industry no matter what ! he has no more fuel and no more life. we said NO WE ARE NOT READY (i was still unconscious but almost there..almost). the truck driver said he could give us maybe 20 seconds at max trying his best but he couldnt see anymore good because he was now below 3000 health and loosing sight ! i was close of waking up and i said to my truck driver "TRY TO DRIVE THROUGH THE GATE AND MAKE SURE THE OFFROADER FOLLOWS YOU! WE WILL WAIT AT THE GATE !" so my other buddy rushes to the gate and started to wait, i was now finally waking up, and while getting on my feet the truck was already on its way and only a few meters away from the industry building. so the truck now come, but he didnt went through the gate, the driver was so low on health that he could not see that gate. he passed it on the left and crashed into the forrest. i rush to the front gate, my buddy already there, and there comes the offroad truck, rolling towards us maybe 10meters away! i tell my buddy OPEN FIRE OPEN FIRE and we fired right into the drivers cabine on full auto (m4a1 sds) and unload the complete magazine without stopping fire. the driver died immeadiatly and fell out dead. the passenger got out, but has a broken bone since he falls to the ground right away. he was obiously in shock because he seemed not to realize where the shots came from since he was now crowling parralel to us next to the vehicle not looking at us. we reaload and both of us unload another magazine on the last guy. yes we where nervous and full of adrenaline! the seconds bandit dies in a rain of bullets. after this our brave truck driver falls out of the vehicle saying is below 700 health and still bleeding. now zombies appear. i rush to my buddy to bandage him while my other buddy shoots his last 1911 magazines into upcoming zombies. i saved my buddy with 300 health. gave him blood transfusion. end of story, we all survived, got the bandits gear, got their truck and still have our truck. playing alot of dayz that was the most tense experience i had so far. i would pay alot of money to have the recordings of our skype conversation. i hereby want to give special credit to my buddy who drove the truck. he was completly new to dayz and ended up in this hollywood shootout. please please let me know what you think about this story and write me PMs if you like. i wrote this on the best of my memories and there was nothing added to the story . i hope you enjoyed it. in the end i have to say, even if we would have gotten shot in the end, i was enjoying it from the first second to the last. no matter if we would have lost it would be still a great experience! sorry for the long read. sincerely yours sudden

fuck liam neeson and fuck that movie. im not taking anything serious, as a matter of fact im just adding some necessary tension. its good that we now have a goal instead of just running around, killing zombies and loot the same buildings over and over again. i dont know about you "doc", but if you dont die every day and have everything you need you will be happy for something "new". and thank you again for your incredible good tip to start a new camp, i would have never imagined that, thanks. anymore good ideas like that ? and btw, hows the beach looking these days? @ larkinto those coordinates -03401- are no even close to our camp. maybe you found another camp or you didnt find any camp at all and just try to be fancy here but that coordinates do not belong to our camp. and none of your names show up in the server log files and according to that you never ever even played on this server....... and that "fucked your mother up the ass" is freakin offensinve. sth like that doesnt belong in an official forum.

the cars have been spottet enroute. we dont shoot to scare, we shoot to kill. the hunt is on. we will find you. maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow. but we will search day and night. we are not only 2-3 random beach boys running around like headless chickens. so better gear up. and to all others, rewards for informations are still offered.

if u did so, then proove it by telling the exact coordinates where you found em.

for me and my buddies there isnt a problem anymore. i put the ghillie on, stil had all my gear and its shown. my buddy put on a camo suit and didnt have problems either

hey guys, i have a question. i am renting a server (LU160 x1337). the time setting is UTC so that german players will approach night time at somewhere like 22:00 (10:00PM) at local german time. so when i was playing this morning it was still total night on the server which is correct according to the time setting. BUT at 5:00 oclock in the morning the server is doing its scheduled restart. so when i was on the server, it was night, and right after the restart, it was freakin total daylight? is there something wrong or how is the server time schedule running after a restart ?? greetings and thanks for help sudden

well hmm thats not good because i wont be there all the time and i want to rely on the automated restart. and hey, arent the vehicles and stuff despawn from saved locations when i "stop" the server ? thx 4 the quick answers btw
