Thanks so much. You don't really rent servers right? I was looking over your past posts, and it seemed like you just run, not rent servers. Anywhoo, if you do, I have a friend who is looking to rent a server! On a side note, I'll tell his rich self to donate, I noticed you guys haven't received any donations in forever :( Bah, did the server roll back a lot? 6 out of the 7 tents have dissipated :(

Hey guys, I recently made a short video all about hunting. I did my best to cram as much info in the video as possible. Please let me know what you think. If you have any suggestions feel free to leave them here, I plan on making more videos of a similar nature. http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/tv4g7/dayz_quick_tips_hunting/

1. Can you have more than 1 tent? As in, can I save more than 1 tent to the server? 2. How does saving tents and loot work? Do I need to save the tent every time I add more loot / modify the loot? Do I just need to save it once, when I first put it down? 3. How does a server eating a tent happen? Is there anything I can do to avoid this? I've lost 2 tent's full of loot. 4. Does the bag space inside of a backpack add to the total loot space of the tent? I am able to put a backpack with items inside of my tent. So lets say the tent has inventory 20 spaces left, and I put the backpack in with 5 items inside of it, will that mean I had 15 spaces left, or will I still have the same 20 left (plus now an extra 20 inside that alice, though in this example it would only have 15 free spaces)?

Thanks, that answers #1, does anyone know for the other 2? I added a 4th question to the list!

From what I can see, they have a chance to spawn in pretty much every building. http://picacid.com/arma2/loot_en.html

Killed a dude who was shooting the zombies around me. In my defense I was taking damage, and he was shooting right at me. He was pretty far off, so for all I know he did hit me, but his intentions were good. I ran over and put a clip in his face.

Same. I haaaaate making the game easier for casuals, but there is nothing difficult / challenging about this system. If you can't log in once every day or two, a game shouldn't punish you. As far as game mechanics go, rewarding dedication = good, but punishing people for not logging on for a few days = bad.

Thanks. I have a lot of friends who just started playing, so I've been teaching them quite a bit lately, lol.

Adding little bits here and there :)

Is it possible to run the game in full screen windowed mode?

is there a change list anywhere?

Out of all the issues affecting the game ATM, I'd say this is the biggest. I understand it's Alpha, and I'm not crying about it (though I'd like to). I just think this should be the #1 issue to fix. All the other bugs are nuisances, this bug stops people from playing / testing the game. I just hope they take this issue serious, and work to fix it before they mess with anything else. I've loaded into many servers where just about everyone is sitting around waiting to play.

You can take stuff out of other people's backpack can't you? My friend has done this a few times. You can't loot my inventory, but you can take from my backpack.

The downed UH-1H I found didn't have the option to get in the pilot seat, only the gunner :(

How do you even loot them? I found one, and all I could do was save it, and get in the gunner seat. After being in the gunner seat all I could do was get out. I tried looking at it and hitting gear with no luck.

How do you figure out what a vehicle needs to have repaired? I found a crashed heli, but I'm afraid to get in (bug that kills people and such). Do I have to get into the pilot seat to see what's wrong with it?

Just signed up and started editing a bit. I Messed with the matchbook page and related pages. Added that you need to pick up the fireplace after you use it. I recently lost my fireplace, and had to go back for it, lol. I'm new to wiki editing, but it's fairly easy to learn. I'll do what I can, but I'm new, so I'm being careful about what I put on there. I don't want to give anyone bad info :P

Ahhh, so that's what happened. I wondered how I got back to the coast with all my loot... I was pretty far inland.

Not sure why you are getting so angry, but w.e. My issue isn't with how the game should be played, but rather that you seem to want to tell people how to play. This isn't really the place to be crying about PvP in general, this is a post about the recent patch.

So because he made the mod for Arma II, that states that he wants only team players, and no lone wolfs? I'm not sure how that logic works.

I love the new zombie numbers, but I don't like the respawn rate. I like having to be careful and tactful with my shots and movement. I just hate that after I clear a town, I don't have time to loot it.

What? What's wrong with PvP, and how did this patch change it? Are you complaining about PvP in general, or did something change that I didn't see in the patch notes?
