  1. Server Unknown Time: 45-50 days ago There were five of us near Starry, two on sniper overwatch and three running through the trees in a staggered group. You saw one of us and ran up to him thinking he was your buddy who you were waiting for, you looked so surprised when the other two came out of the bushes and surrounded you. I could tell you were freaking out, and despite your military grade weapons we let you leave to meet up your friend, I directed you around our snipers so there wouldn't be a problem. I was so happy when you didn't turn around, because our snipers had bead on you for almost a kilometer. But you never turned. You just ran and ran. And no one had to die.

    How to Stop Pointless Killing

    DayZ is about freedom. Freedom from rules from structure from regimen. The fact that it has zombies in it is merely a backdrop, a PVE hazard. If it was full of dinosaurs it would probably be similar, sure velociraptors can fuck your shit up, but what you really need to watch out for is the asshole hill camping with an AS50, until he gets blinded and eaten by a dilophosaurus. Beans.

    I can't tell if this is a trolling attempt or just retarded.
  5. Maybe you could get negative humanity for mistaking your and you're. :)

    M203 Smoke Question

    .5 lbs at 250 feet per second. That's sufficient to kill you at a significant range. Works in Battlefield, not ARMA it appears.

    1.7.3 Question

    Apparently Not: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/78242-173/

    M203 Smoke Question

    No. Tried it on a zombie. Made a nice *thunk* *splat* sound but it didn't appear to do any damage. Shooting an M203 flare at a TWS wielder is probably enough to give the dude a migraine though.

    Modification to Kill Messages

    https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/addEventHandler Actual changes to the mission files are minimal. I'm not sure what you mean but I'm asking it to write directly to the log, not to broadcast to players. It's true SA's can view log in real time but I doubt most would use this to their advantage. Currently ARMA II OA can be configured to output a real time map with player/vehicle/player placed object positions without any sort of script. Engine hacks like Helios also employ this. This modification would not counteract those (except where it makes it obvious that a PKer made a beeline between several players). It's a minimalist fix that could have an enormous impact, so I believe so yes. Of course, deleting military bodies is in the same vein and they haven't done that yet. Thanks for the support. This is my hope, it would also identify Scripters using Godmode, and I hope, kill commands. My sentiments exactly.

    Anybody have a G36C SD?

    The G36 Uses stanags and stanag SD's, the G36C Holo SD uses stanag SD's and is virtually identical in preformance to the m4sd. Like I said: dumbass. Yup.

    This is a fix that can be achieved in hours. Not days. Not weeks. Actually inserting the code is minimal, the bulk of the time would come from distribution, and on servers with active SA's this would immediately have a drastic effect on the number of hackers interfering with fair play. Yes it gives more information to SA's, but frankly, if an SA can access this info, they can already access information even more potentially damaging (Where you spawned in, where you logged out, what you have in your pack, where you placed your tents, if you have a vehicle, etc etc etc). But I won't bullshit you, there are dickhead SA's out there. I read the Server Reporting Forum every day, I know it's true. Some would probably use this to kick or ban players who killed them in fair play. But the fact is, the ones who are not dumbasses can already use the info they've got to fuck you over. And the ones who just want you to have a good time in their server? They're under siege, and the Dev Team as well as anyone who plays frequently knows this.

    It's unethical not amoral. But you strike me as a dumbass so the distinction is probably irrelevant. FYI Black People it uses Stanags.

    The logs already show every player placed tent in the server if you know where to look and how to read it. An SA needs to make a choice not to abuse that info, and you as a player can make a choice not to play in a server with an abusive SA. For an SA like myself though, the ability to see who's killing whom because they have godmode, or a player teleporting all over the map and killing people would not only make my server better, it would greatly enhance the experience of every player on my server.
  16. If I see you alt-f4 from 2555 again I'm submitting the logs I've accumulated on you to the Community Banlist.
  17. If you're running through a firewall or VPN that might be the source of your issues. I dunno man, if single player works fine I'd say there's some issue between client and server. What sort of Bandwith are you working with?
  18. Again, it's a game catered to sociopaths. The majority of the community makes that fairly clear.
  19. My server got thunderdomed last night with 6 people in it. Checking the logs any given night when the player count is low usually reveals 2 or 3 script kiddies, when it's full, maybe 4 or 5.
  20. Oh look another sanctimonious douchebag whining about a people with a legitimate concern rather than addressing the underlying problem. ARMA II has a fairly weak engine designed by a smaller company. It's built on numerous client and server side scripts. If one is inclined one can remotely load and execute these scripts to ruin everyone else's day, but BE can catch those with some regularity. The real problem comes when talented but unscrupulous people exploit ARMA II and BE's weak code and write work-arounds and custom scripts, and then sell them to similarly unscrupulous people to make a quick buck. Assholes, all of them.

    Have We Paid For Dayz?

    If you're one of the numerous server operators that pay to maintain servers which allow this community to exist hell yes you've paid for this game. The rest of you? Parasites.

    Epic Player Killing Montage 4 (new)

    I can tell people they've got 4 M4's, a DMR, and an AS50 watching them if they're not chill. They shoot me anyways. It doesn't turn out well for them.
