I don't see as to why it would suddenly stop working, I've used it, and been around others using it in the current version (that's been up since yesterday, which was before this post was made) and all the previous versions for the past week.

Direct Communications VoIP does work, the problem is the people that wont take a moment to set it up and those that don't have microphones. VoIP doesn't work straight out of the box with DayZ, you have to go into Options - Controls and bind a key to Direct Communications Push-to-Talk. Yes, it does work. But given the community here is more prone to complain about it than actually doing it, nothing will change.

VoIP still works, read the changelog, it explains what happened. Press to Talk (PTT) has been disabled on All, Side, and Command channels. PTT is enabled on Direct, Group, and Vehicle channels. You will need to bind a key to Direct Comms PTT to be able to talk over Direct. The same with Group and Vehicle. Since Caps Lock serves no purpose, just rebind it to your preferred channel of the 3 enabled. Space (the command button) doesn't serve a purpose either, so it's also good to assign a channel to that.

That's what makes this mod special. At the very least it removes the players that cant handle opposition. We really don't need to turn into a bunch of hand holders, where those that prey on others are clearly defined from those that don't. The feeling of no safety, from zombies or other players, is what keeps me playing. The moments of interacting with other players, keeping an eye on and a safe distance from them, whether to trust them or not, is what sets this apart from other games and mods, in my opinion. A few of the bandit-type of players I've seen are part of clans, simply shooting those that are not with them, so maybe they can keep the excitement going while the Humanity System is giving a reason for others to not PvP. A solution maybe to have the Humanity System be an option for the server to use.
