I think their view point is this...It's just another Arma 2 PVP mod where zombies are a tool they can use to track their enemy. I doubt half of them have even followed rocket's Dev blogs, forums or review pages etc, to get any idea of what rocket wants to make this game become. for me the survival element of the game has always been number 1, Yes ill shoot armed players i encounter but purely for survival, and not being backstabbed.

This is happening to me too and I am VERY concerned about security issues with this, the fact that it even has access to this level of my internet to mess up the deep rooted configs in my system, windows telling me i have no web connection at random intervals, web pages not loading, this software is a piece of crap which i no longer trust. Uninstalled.

I won't be updating to this patch.

I have to agree 100% here, I'm all for community input because it makes a game that We want to play,saying that tho its shouldn't strangle whats good for the game, I've noticed a lot of this going on though not just in this game but a lot of community games, big clans/groups knowing that if enough of them complain about something it will be taken as a majority opinion and likely changed to suit them, but that doesn't speak for everyone!! so i say this DO WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE GAME!! and not what some whiny keyboard warriors on Reddit want, for the players who didn't complain and who like it, it seems didn't have a valid vote/opinion because we didn't comment, there possibly could have been more people who do like this being added than not, just the only people that said anything about it were the ones that didn't like it.

this is what happens when butthurt bandits complain over the top about the most trivial of situations, you get an over the top counter mechanic that takes the piss! the in combat icon status is enough.

there shouldnt be a goddamn timer the combat log icon should be enough if he fires a shot near you im just idling around looking for car parts in barns and then i go for dinner and cant exit wtf!! REMOVE THIS ROCKET NOW!!! (sorry :P)

im not in combat my gun icon is green i press esc and have to wait nearly 2 minutes to abort sat here looking at my screen waiting to logout so i can go for dinner, also,if you go back in game off the menu then press esc again the timer resets D:, i hate it its dumbest thing ever to be put in to this mod

in reference to the first comparison shots are there any performance differences rendering wise?, will it be more/less taxing on the graphics card?

So i have rmod running on saintly server setup and can join, i think its working correctly because i added this 'default dayz banned' rather peculiar looking heli "Ka137_PMC" to my database and it spawned in the map. :0 happy dayz (excuse the pun). so i know how to add vehicles and spawn points for them etc. my question is all the loot and guns that spawn are still default dayz stuff what do i have to do to get all the 'rMod unbanned' stuff to spawn in the map too? also how can i use the custom player skins that rMod apparently adds? Other than vehicles i don't really know how to get the rest of the new stuff in my game. I'm not wanting to add any buildings with map editor at this point, thanks in advance.

i can't use the ones in the links because i dont know how to get chrome to actually execute the php, i notice the one you got in the pic here will run in chrome any way i can get hold of it? im currently trying to set up vehicle spawns in the map for my server, if not are you making it public release standalone anytime soon thanks in advance

just play dayz 2017 if you want a bigger more realistic challenge, im not that much of a realism junkie and think the system is fine the way it is

is your server whitelisted? i may come and play there soon i only tried dayz 2017 once a few days ago and it was pretty enjoyable, i consider my self to be not a noob,i managed to get a tent, lee enfield and all hunting gear.

a server i play on that's quite populated often is plain old dayz vanilla, with normal loot and vehicles except they have a rule anyone who pvp's south of solnichy gets banned, which results in less people being insta killed on spawn and newbies tend to trust each other and team up, side chat is enabled too, also some friendlys who get helis and vehicles come down to the coast to help people and give them rides along the coast and stuff, its pretty nice to see all these players teaming up and helping instead of being full of fear of being shot while trying to gear up, and there's still the harsh pvp up north where all the epic loot is and stuff people stash, bandit camps, nwaf, stary, etc etc...

who said anything about jetpacks? that's obviously a dumb exaggerated idea, but third person has been part of arma 2 from day one, why suddenly do we get complaints when it comes to dayz? its part of the game and engine mechanics, you always play on first person servers fair enough but you seem to be a minority, realism isn't necessarily fun but can be if its applied in the right ways and it seems most players (like me) think its a bad idea to nerf or get rid of 3rd person mechanics.

it isnt this guys machine, i have the same problem except mine just shows the desktop and i can still hear whats goin on in game i can fix it by pressing [shift]+[numpad-] then type flush to reload arma 2's rendering but sometimes it causes my graphics card to lock itself into low performance mode (300mhz core/100mhz memory/600mhz shader) and the game the n runs like crap until i reboot my pc to fix it this is a serious problem caused by the new beta patch for arma 2 and needs to be fixed before it damages peoples hardware by crashing drivers all the time

a guy was running around on top of a building in cherno industrial section one of those oblong ones you cant enter but has several ladders to climb up i was 300m(ish) away north on the hill and shot him dead with my lee enfield, it was a crack shot and i was very proud at the time, it wasnt really asshole banditry everyone was junking around killing each other in pvp duels at the time.

banditry in dayz has become just an excuse for trolls to get off on making noobs rage by baiting them and backstab killing them. i agree it should come with a hefty price and made less desirable and make these idiots actually play dayz properly

We have chopper crash sites with epic military guns so... why not make use of those little storage boxes that are sometimes spawned by hackers full of items and guns, make them have a small set of supplies few medical 1-2 guns and ammo and a few food items, also iv'e seen cows drop in on parachutes' why not have these do that. i think this would be a cool idea.

my definition of a zombie... The mind and soul of the person that once inhabited the body is completely gone and all that remains is a blood thirsty mutated monster, created by a virus or infection.

good point i pondered that after posting, maybe not dropping in on parachutes then maybe look as tho they've been there for a while with a parachute attached lay on the floor with storm damaged textures and stuff

you character would appear to move forwards when switching to 3rd person, pretty dumb! the 3rd person mechanic has been in arma 2 since forever why complain now? its part of the game and here's the most important point.. HARDLY ANYONE PLAYS FIRST PERSON ONLY SERVERS!!

nobody is "abusing" any mechanic its part of the game and part of arma 2 as well, goddamn these realism junkies everyone can look around corners and everyone has the same advantage so your're equally matched, so stop complaining and putting a negative spin on it.

So obviously currently vehicles are saved locally on servers with their gear, my suggestion is this.. Each player has the ability to have 1 vehicle(and its contents) saved on the hive which they can use on any server. If the vehicle is taken by another player on a server they lose it. entering the driver/pilot seat claims vehicle if you haven't already claimed one. if a player entering pilot/driver seat already has claimed one the vehicle is set as unclaimed and is left local to the server its on until it is claimed by a player. if there are too many vehicles on a server, the unclaimed ones that came from a player(from the hive) are removed and lost on next server start. I realize this would take a lot of code rework but would be cool nonetheless. please comment with constructive criticism.

to summarize.. servers will always spawn new vehicles if there aren't enough. crowded ones will remove random unclaimed ones that were brought by a player originally as long as you own a vehicle on the hive you wont lose it and you can only own 1.

i already covered that flaw
