Is the server maintenance happening right now? Friday the 24 at 10am gmt?

Fixed this for you

Are you serious? Do you not know how to "favourite" a server...All the private hives I played on were always online unelss there were being updated.

shadows on high they get rendered on the gpu, shadows on normal or low they get done on the cpu. Since the game is heavily cpu bound in a lot of cases, especially in towns having the shadows rendered on the gpu can often free up a few cpu cycles, that is if you have a good enough gpu that is not already the bottleneck in your system.

Im not combat logging Im just taking tactical break from the action. I dont see what the problem is Im doing it so I dont die and I get to keep all the loot I got from server hoping.

I love server hopping and I think its a great feature of the game that makes getting loot and killing unsuspecting people so much easier. I love it when someone has me cornered in a room and I can log to another server run out of the room and log back in behind the person, tactics like this make the game realistic just like the matrix or sliders.

Maybe the worst Dayz vid i have ever seen. Why did you even upload this garbage?

NICE ONE !

NOTHING GETS YOUR HEART RACING LIKE SOME QUALITY PvP. Playing on empty servers and and getting lots of zombie kills is only for people are not very good at arma 2. After hours of walking through the bush NOTHING makes you sit up and pay attention like glimpsing a ghillie suit slipping throught the trees to your left. Killing zombies is fun and i love the survival aspects of the game but it doesnt get me hard like stalking a couple of ghillies at NWA.

I dont really care if the tents are duping hacked items or are completly legit. I destroy them or drop the items on the ground. I have checked back directly after a restart and and again later and every tent i have done this to has not continued to dupe. This not only goes for tents but all kinds of "dangerous" loot i find. I would like it if there was a lot less loot floating around, at the moment its disgustingly easy to gear up. There really needs to be a full wipe for all players/tents/vehicles as soon as the problem is fixed.

I concur. What i have been doing latley is going around just before server resets and taking all the items out of the tent and droping them on the ground then saving the tent. After the the reset the items i left on the ground have gone. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. That or i just run them over in a vehicle or blow them up with grenades or C4. I currently have a long list of duping tents on ANZ servers that im slowly working my way through. I hope other players do the same or at least save the tent after they looted it so other CANNOT do the same.

JUST WATCH, crank the res if you can. I have seen whole server killed, hacked tents and vehicles containing everything, invisible players and teleporting but nothing on this scale. Part 2 coming soon.

Nar the guy took me back to electro after i looted the crates, no worries even let me keep the bike. Nice guy. Is this a common script? This is the first i have seen of it.

Essential, really ? I Think not.

No, sorry you are incorrect, There are pleanty of offical Hive servers that have side chat enabled.....unfortunatly.

Try setting your filter settings to something different, make sure you have dayz in there, also try putting the name of the server you wish to join. In answer to your question: Yes, you did waste your money. The dayz mod is free and anyone willing to pay $30 just to test a mod that is still in alpha needs to take a running jump off the band wagon. A fool and his money are easily parted.

TLDR OP. Oh Yeah, and sucked you dumb cheating hacker. LOL !

ftp://downloads.bistudio.com/arma2.com/update/beta/ARMA2_OA_Build_95883.zip and 1.7.2.5 testing now stuck on loading with 95819

Running 95417 and the 1.7.2.4. I was getting massive cpu bottle neck today only 23 fps when i normally sit on 60 fps. This happened ages ago with one of the old patches and a hotfix was released, something to do with loot cleanup or maybe ai issues is chewing up all my cpu cycles. I was on a server tho that was only running 95389 tho so that could have been it. Either way i was having CPU USAGE ISSUES.

You're not intersting.

I see you chose your words carefully and CHANGED your post you "legitimate types of play" I think you and i have different ideas about the definition of legitimate. I am in support for a cooldown timer when you leave the game in any way, period. Also good to see the removal of respawn.

For starters the I dont really mind the fact that it might discourage random groups. You either trust them or you dont. Im sure either party at some stage had an oportunity to backstab why wait till they DC. Or how about at the end of you little holding hands adventure you both go your separate ways then only log when you are alone/think you are alone. Ok if i can see you YOURE IN COMBAT. If I can hear your footsteps/gunshots and know i know where you are YOURE IN COMBAT. DayZ is a mod for a COMBAT SIM. You are allways in danger. You never know what can happen.

Im not quite sure what you mean by a bullet meter? Im assuming you mean that if a bullet is heading in your direction when you logout you almost take that bullet with you and when you respawn the bullet resumes it flight path toward you and you might get hit and die? If that is what your sugesting that only discourages people who are under direct fire. I want to stop the the people DC/altf4 who know they are about to be killed because they are outnumbered, injured, surrounded, unarmed or pinned down in a building. Its all about the RISK. If we are having a gun battle and i see you go into a building, I want you to know that IF you choose to DC/al-tf4 you run the RISK of me deciding to rush the building and and finding one of three things inside: 1. Bullets in my face, because your a man and chose to stay and fight. 2. I find your frozen body inside and kill/loot you because you DC/altf4 and didnt allow enough time. 3. I find nothing. You DC sucessfully because my counterstrike rush technique was too slow and you live to fight another day.

How do you know you are not out of combat? What if im a sniper and i have been stalking you for hours and im just about to shoot you from 500m away and the game lets you log instantly and because you havent fired a shot and/or bleeding/or standing right next to me. The point is you are never safe in DayZ and you never know what can happen, you logout your taking a risk. Most of the time a very small risk but a risk nonetheless.
