I am the admin of the Colorado server, that is actually my group that engaged you :) Haha it wasn't really a "planned" attack they just kind of winged it and that's what happened. Awesome story though! I got some good laughs out of it! I personally wasn't in this fight! If you want to chat with the people that you attacked you or join up with us. You can join my teamspeak. The IP address is www.theprogamers.com Thanks for playing! Dizzymagoo

Supported. This is awesome!

Now that you hit 1 million unique players, are you going to pull your head out of your ass and commit to the things you say?

This server FR181 has been locked with 3-5 people in it almost constantly for the past couple days. Last I remember this is against the rules. http://i.imgur.com/U1Mru.jpg

Thought I would give this a bump. This issue needs to be addressed.

And for the love of cheese and potatoes... PLEASE! Remove the damn AS50 and M107. This is a zombie survival... A 7.62 is a big enough round, no one on gods earth in real life would be stupid enough to carry a .50cal rifle around. Not to mention the ammo is way too abundant! Being able to stop cars and players in one hit with a gun from 1000+ meters in this world is just plain old stupid. At least half the idiots carrying it around don't know how to use it.

Suggest: Locate a normal FN FAL for daytime use only. Why try and make yet ANOTHER over powered ranged weapon?

Dear OP, You're going to have a hard time in life. Love, Some Jackass

Vipeax when/if you make any update to the helicopters can you please edit the OP? A lot of people don't feel like reading everyone's posts just to filter out your posts.

I like this idea, last night flying around in the chopper I managed to find 4 camps because they're so easy to spot in the trees from the sky.

This.

That was hilarious

No, helicopters do not spawn jets. Sorry.

Says the guy who doesn't even know how to quote someone on the forums. Lolol. Anyways for those of you who may have had issues with "This server is running an incorrect version of the server side application" make sure you have the 32bit C++ Redist installed. I had recently installed a new server and only installed the 64bit ones. My bad.

Whoa, what a surprise, another idiot who doesn't know what hes doing and tries to manually update and breaks his game and blames it on dayz and makes a worthless post about it. Anyways, rocket, any word on the server is running an incorrect version of the serverside application? The server is running v0.7.1 server side code and the latest 1.7.2.4 files.

At this point, I think the thread needs to come to a close. All the issues have been addressed. Rocket is aware of the situation. Let fate take its course.

I did test it on a private server that you can only connect to if you're on my VPN, the idea was well played out. I then did it on a public server during the late hours of the night when USUALLY my server is rather dead. It took off and my server became really popular. I could see it being a huge issue on a public server if I was just handing out guns or something that were spawned in and messing with the natural loot cycle. However that was not the case... As to whoever said "this isn't registering for me", it is. I addressed the issue with rocket. We talked about it. I'm doing a report on the results of the test and sending it over to rocket for review. I'm not saying that because i'm a developer I can do what I want, i'm saying that because i'm a developer I feel as if I deserve a little more slack on the stunts and tests I pull. If I modified the mission files and pushed them out to every server as a test, that would be a completely different story.

Of course I messed up everyone. The point of the matter is, you don't need to keep repeating yourself. I usually don't answer "politely" because people don't use the search function because they're lazy. I personally went to rocket and explained to him what I did and apologized for my actions to him. I was doing a test for something to try and implement some new ideas for game-play and see how they worked out. I could have done it on a closed server, but the only people who would have joined would have been my friends. Have you ever tried a trading post with people who all get along? It works way too well. Therefore a public server where people don't know each other was the appropriate setting for the test. However another point that I would like to touch base on is that if I made a passworded server and had 16-20 people in it. This thread would be titled "Colorado 1 Admin Abuse! Passworded Server! HES A DEV! Hang him by his balls!". The way I looked at it. Either way I was getting in trouble. I went out on a limb to try to test some new ideas that would be sweet to have in DayZ. I apologize if the community feels that testing new ideas are bad. But ideas have to start somewhere.

Why? Why you ask? Because it was an experiment that doesn't matter. Instead these people have to go and stick their damn nose in everything.

This thread is dedicated to the Colorado 1, Colorado 2, Colorado 3 servers! For the members that play on my servers you can discuss, report, dispute anything here! DayZ Colorado 1 Server IP: 65.103.116.51 Server Port: 2302 Server Slots: 50 Difficulty: REGULAR History: This is where it all started for me. Shortly after getting into the DayZ community I created this server. It started out as a 30slot server and later got expanded to a 50slot because it was constantly full. DayZ Colorado 2 Server IP: 65.103.116.51 Server Port: 2312 Server Slots: 30 Difficulty: REGULAR History: Shortly after I noticed that the Colorado 1 server was constantly full, I finally got fed up with people on teamspeak asking me to kick someone so they could get in. I created this server in hopes to relieve some stress from the Colorado 1 server. It didn't work, now I just have two always full servers. Which isn't bad by any means! DayZ Colorado 3 Server IP: 65.103.116.51 Server Port: 2324 Server Slots: 30 Difficulty: EXPERT History: I finally decided to run a third server to see if it would push the limits of my network connection. Noticing that I probably have the capacity for a 4th server, I decided to leave it up and running. Colorado 3 has now proven to be one of the most popular and stable servers to date within the DayZ community! DayZ Teamspeak Server IP: www.projectdizzy.com Server Port: 9987 Server Slots: 512 History: This teamspeak server was created around the community The Pro Gamers. A lot of people from all different backgrounds and communities hang out in teamspeak. They play all sorts of different games. Anybody is welcome to this teamspeak, you can even bring your friends! If you want more information about my servers feel free to visit www.projectdizzy.com Introduce yourselves to me and each other! Tell us a little about yourself! Are you a regular? How long have you been playing on the Colorado servers? Your best story? Have you encountered Dizzymagoo? I will start! I have been playing on the Colorado server ever since I started them up! Of course I am a regular. I watch the server consoles almost 24/7(I have a very slow job). Once im off work, I head home and usually play for 4-6 hours. Which server do I play on? Depends on what im doing for the day, I have camps on all 3 servers! My best story... hmmm... lets see here... I just spawned after having a small mishap at NWAF. I decided to book it up there to get some gear back. I made it all the way to Vybor where I went into a red brick building. Scared the shit out of n00b when I came around the corner with my MP5, he got the drop on me though and owned me with a winchester(One shot drop). Later I started talking with this guy, invited him into teamspeak, found out he lives about 30min away from me in real life. He is now one of the admins of the Colorado servers. He went from a noob to an admin in about a weeks time. All because of him being paranoid of bandits!

You don't have the proper registry entries.

As a person with a pretty colored name there are things I can and cannot say. Im not sure which one of those what im about to say is. But here we go... We all take risks. Last night I put my entire "DayZ Career" on the line by what I did. If I get a large punishment, lose my status, etc... then thats my own fault because I pulled that stunt and went out on a limb. If you pull a stunt and go enable side chat on your server. Then so be it, just don't complain when you get blacklisted for it. I certainly won't complain when/if my status gets stripped. Im simply stating that im not going to help you enable side chat because it is against the rules. I hope that came out correctly. I guess to sum it up. Yes I broke the rules and will suffer my consequences even though my intentions were good. If you want to break the rules, be prepared to suffer the consequences, even if your intentions are good. The only person I am helping break the rules, is myself. You guys come to me and ask a question "Are we allowed to enable side chat?" My answer "No... its against the rules" Im not stopping you from doing it, but when someone comes to the forums and posts about it and makes a huge deal out of it and your server gets blacklisted, sucks for you.

I personally have no knowledge on why it was removed. I am happy with the fact that it was though. I like it because my screen isn't flooded with 1000000000000 messages about how people are connecting and disconnecting, the less you have going on keeping your brain busy, the more it thinks about how deep of shit you're in and starts to create a more paranoid feeling. Which I love. In regards to Volatyle, im in the same boat you are... I enabled side chat the same way anyone else would. I'm not void of punishment. I may still get punished for all I know. My servers could be blacklisted, big whoop. Yes I care about the mod, yes I devote countless hours and tons amount of frustration towards it. In fact I have almost lost my real job a couple times because this mod has become a higher priority. I conducted an experiment with written results and valuable information that will be passed on to rocket in hopes that this could greater increase emergent gameplay and furthering player involvement with the mod. Im probably going to receive a punishment for my actions. I went out on a limb, pulled a little stunt in hopes for some good results. You all merely want to enable sidechat because you like screaming for help in Cherno. Emergent gameplay is what this is about. My experiment was to help gather results to improve this. If you go back to my server now. It has been disabled, because that is the way the servers were designed and because the experiment is over.

I appreciate your understanding. As for the disconnect messages, i'll hold you to the same punishment I receive if you do so. I've been running my servers since well before the messages were disabled and have still managed to assemble a pretty large list of disconnecters. Just look at the in game server time(Use your watch) and then look in the logs at that exact same time and you will see the players name. I promise you.
