So we/I need a plan to beat the players doing the following. Because its upto us/me apparently :) Lamers Hiding at big towns and Air bases then swapping server just to hunt players at the locations they spawn at. camp location -see player - disconnect goto new server flank player you saw - rejoin other server kill player - get camp spot - disconnect - repeat. Join night servers - its day for you night for them. shoot anyone who cant see you - disconnect. Clan player camps a location to spot. he tells buddy on TS other players locations. Buddy moves to flank on dif server - connects,kills,loots,leaves. Its not much like an apocalyptic world. when the twat players are acting like harry fucking potter and magically appearing behind you. Ok so you dont like the idea of making twat players wear a skin. but do you like the idea of them using server swapping magic tricks ? It may be upto us to come up with a way to beat the players who are bandits but have no possible means of identification and an unlimited supply of names they can use. But its not our job to fix the server hopping lame ass twats ability to do magic tricks. Unless as in one of your links rocket this is to be a WOWDayZ

From what I can tell. Some server have vehicles turned on some dont. Seems some have only choppers on and some have choppers and cars etc etc. Also since the last patch, vehicle repairs arnt working because of the scroll menu bug.

It isn't arbitrary, or it shouldn't be if properly implemented. That's the thing. You should be represented as what you are and how you behave, it is a game and that is functionally important, so gameplay mechanics such as that should be implemented. I have no problem with me "looking" like a "good guy" because that's how I am, how I behave. And I'll leave it up to the other survivors to judge me and react accordingly to that. That's the thing in a nutshell. I don't mind that I'm a helpful or benevolent or kind being represented by my skin, because I go to the trouble to be altruistic, or in the worst case benevolently neutral. No problem, skin me as that. If you are evil, a criminal or just a psychopath, you should be represented as such. Things must be conveyed within the limitations of gameplay that we would decide through real human interaction. Those real thins cannot be represented realistically or functionally, so you need a gameplay mechanic to facilitate that. You have to consider gameplay, and not tenuous arguments about "realism", which are baseless in my opinion, given the limitations of the mod and it's foundation engine. Excellent point and very well put. I totally agree. Good should be portrayed as Good. and Evil portrayed as Evil, via a skin. As its the only game mechanic option available to us, that I can think of.

New DayZ poster ?

1. Stop Players being able to save in Airfields and large towns to prevent the abuse of spawning into hot zones to kill only players. Numerous times We/I have cleared an area or a building only to have a player spawn in behind where We/I have cleared with the sole purpose of killing anyone in that area or building then take gear swap server repeat. This would discourage the campers and server hoppers. Suggestion would be none save zones forcing players to save outside certain zones. 2. Add a Smell Icon which makes zombies Smell you if you havent swam (washed) in the last numbers of days. 3. The mod is in desperate need of a morality system and a way to identify hostile players. Since the update (1.5.8.2) its just DM, with zombies becoming just a small extra in the DM match. One idea I had was to create a new animation that only none murderers can use. Like a wave or something and to bring back the bandit skin or force a type of face. 4. Add a way to join a players group with a system much like shactac fireteam hud. so that you can identify members of your group and their close proximity formation to you. 5. A way to disable all ingame text chat. I dont care what the latest film some 12 year old watched is. Nor do i care to read his "FuK U Nygar" comments all day long. I would like the OPTION to remove all chat and immerse my self more into this great mod. 6. Remove the ability to use VON in anything but Direct. 6a. Support the integration of Acre !! 7. Force crosshairs off and force name tags off . Alot of the new servers popping up dont know whats going on. force the options on the server via scripts or by telling them. I would say force 3rd off as well but you would loose allot of the below puberty demographic. 8. balance the map by adding barracks to the NE airfield bla bla bla BL1P

I would love to see the psychological profiles of all you 12 year old kill everyone on site guys. Long leather coats at school ? I hope they add safe zones which do not allow Murderers in or something that gives some sort of penalty to being a Murderer. Rather than as it is now of the easiest way to progress in the game is to kill anyone you see.

So you think its a challenge for a player to hide in a house and keep swapping servers untill he hears a player moving. So he can kill only the player to steal his gear then save and start swapping servers again. Come on that's not really a challenge that's basically cheating imho and I am sure that wasn't the intention for the creator. People always find loop holes and glitches they can use. Im just reporting the glitch and how players are abusing it.

Glad im not the only one who thinks this server swap spawn thing is a really bad lame thing in the arma verse
