You know what would improve play at night, if everyone wasnt a bunch of fucking pussies.

Is it just me or did the west and north edges of the actual physical map get cutoff compared to the mod, I've been looking for my old NW camp spot to see if it survived. Is there a way to combine the in game map pieces? Thanks

I think I can now confirm that the map has not been cutoff on the edges and the general topography has stayed the same in the NW BUT the flora has definitely changed. Looks like instead of pine its now mostly birch (I think thats the type).

Do you know if the pieces get combined, I'm hoping to get some inventory spaces back. I have two pieces so far one of which I cant even view for whatever reason. I remember seeing Rocket combining them in a video from quite some time ago, I wonder if you need all four to do so?

Thanks for not answering my question.

I have no control over duping Ander as my tents procreate on there own and even when I try and delete they just come back triple fold. Please fix this first before banning anyone. Could we also get a direct response from you on this threat since many like me have the same concern. I'm also getting a little worried about the communication from the team as many well though out posts regarding various issues remain unacknowledged. I understand there are many things that need to be kept secret from us but at the same time assuaging us a bit goes a long way. Thanks

And you also get a pony and a handjob!

Many many thanks!

Um that would mean 35 TERABYTE a month, that cant possibly be right can it? I'm beginning to think the internet cant support Dayz! :)

What are the sustained bandwidth requirements both up and down please, I am shopping for a dedicated box. Thanks

*update* I had a lot better success using 95208 and connecting to servers with a version NEWER then 95054. Tried just 3 in all, one was 95168 and the other two were the same version as I was using 95208. Apparently 95208 is backward compatible somewhat. So ever since this version fragmentation debacle I am having extraordinary difficulty getting into servers always getting stuck on loading. I can still get into a couple servers just fine over and over but for the vast majority I get stuck at loading. I have tried every version of everything over and over. I of course match what the server says it has but nothing seems to work. Example, US 602 says its running 95054 and 1.7.2.3 and I can get into the lobby and see other people on the server but I always get stuck at loading after I click ok. When US 356 said the same versions yesterday I could get in there just fine. Now that 356 updated to 95208 I can get in as long as I update also but now my friend gets the same loading error on 356 when he was able to get in yesterday with 95054. I triple checked to make sure he had the right versions but now he gets the same load error I get on 602 on 356!

Aloha. So after Hardcore 1 bit the dust I made your server my new home. Ever since 95054 I always get stuck at loading and my tent is lost yet again. People are still playing your server however but nowhere near as many as were playing before the 95054 update, less then half actually so I must assume I'm not the only one having a problem getting in. Any ideas? Thanks

I can still get into some servers that say they have 1.7.2.3 and 95054 but not others with the same stuck at loading. Yesterday for example I got into US 356 with my 2 friends using those same versions but not 602 and yet they could. Hopefully 602 will update to a newer beta soon so I can test if that changes anything.

Well the server history doesn't lie and its lost well more then half its peak users. My friend just got in ok too but every time I try I get stuck at loading.

So Ander why has the development suddenly switched to a policy of complete and total version fragmentation with no backward compatibility while still allowing everyone to run whatever the heck they want including private hives? Thanks

Like US 602 for example.

Same here, both my friends for example can get into US 602 but I cant and yet we all can get into another that says its using all the same version. We all are updated to the same exact versions of dayz, beta patch.

So ever since the arma betas stopped being backward compatible AND everyone started needing 4 separate things to be identical to even join a server (Arma Beta version, Dayz version, hive version and now battle eye version) I have been having extreme difficulty joining many servers often getting stuck on loading. Adding the name change on top of all this was adding insult to injury. So anyone know wtf is happening?

I spent 4-5 hours playing this weekend and not a single thing I did was saved. Multiple 1.7.2.3 servers were used but none of the things in my inventory were saved over multiple play sessions. Is my account bugged?

?

And for all, just type in google: DayZ "and whatever the old server was" Thanks jskibo, twice! I have found all my old ones by clicking on the www.gametracker.com links which lead to the new info.

Atlanta 18 here.

My new home btw if only I could get my stuff from Hardcore 1 so I can start playing again.

Aloha Johnny! I have been debating hosting a server with a friend of mine and have a few questions for ya. First let me apologize if these have already been answered elsewhere, I run my own business and have very little time to spare for reading a 20 page thread, I do have all the time in the world for my customers though. :) One, I would like to have a small server to start with, only 25-30 players. Two, I would like to be able to coordinate an exact opening time so I can advertise it ahead of time and of course be in from the start with me and my friend. :) Three, what type of server controls are we allowed? I would like to be able to kick and ban hackers, set my difficulty to the hardest settings, restart the server when I notice nothing is spawning or its not connected to the hive. Don't need to lock it ever as far as I know unless there are reasons that is actually needed. What controls does an admin need and use anyways? Are there competing forms of controlling a server and if so what are the advantages of the one you use? Four, US west cost location. Up until dayz I was used to seeing a lot of server hosts in San Jose/San Francisco which is where I get the best ping but as far as I can tell no dayz servers are hosted there. I'm ok with LA or Seattle but historically the SJ/SF area has been the gaming server hub, maybe I'm just behind the times. Five, any discounts for pre-purchasing longer time frames? Six, what limitations are put on me by the dayz team? Read the dayz staff post. Thank you very much

Do you work for the company or not?
