Looks like it was down for a bit, now it looks like the servers are having issues loading characters.

I'm totally for some rare items to be added to industrial buildings for the use of getting your house connected to the grid. I had the idea myself but I don't know what they could be or how exactly power is given to the bases. Maybe a 'Power Box' and a large 'spool of electrical wiring'? Is rocket making these bases visible to other players to invade or will they be private/group residences? I've never played EVE and seen the flagships or whatever he talked about, nor have I played Xcom to see where he draws his inspiration.

PEOPLE ARE STILL DYING DO NOT JOIN THIS SERVER NZ 19

I don't know what to do, should I start a new character and hope someone actually sees this comment?

Everyone was killed and I was trying to talk in general chat, and someone with my name posted "HELP". I'm really pissed off this could even happen, I've got a friend who can back me up, I hope we can get someone to help us out. I lost a FN FAL I found in a chopper crash site and my first alice back.

I think hackers just killed everyone on NZ 19, I've lost all of my gear, I was just trying to get out of Debug plains too :(

Even as more of a survivor, I respect your bandit ideals. More bandits should follow these rules, especially your disconnection morals. Teaching the basics to the new players is going to fill up my forests :/

While browsing the DayZ forums for some news and stories, like I do before sleep every night, an idea had sparked in my head as a page was loading. I remembered hearing that the power lines were a proper network on the map and that Underground bases are a fairly high possibility in the future of DayZ's development. So then I came to the idea that we could hook up grid power to these underground bases, and so long as the nearest power station is being maintained you could run lights, security, hydroponics systems etc. The stations, after being cleared of zombies and activated, could run for a few days and possibly there could be a small chance of a hoard of zombies that attack the base once it is activated. This will add just another type of non infected human comradery, which would work for the benefit of many survivors and bandits alike. As more of a survivor, I'd love to see something similar happen, So is the community with me on this?

Hey I'm in the same predicament. 19 and waiting to join the Australian Defense Force. I'd like someone to play with, I'm really keen on DayZ's survival aspect and I'm currently up in the hills NE
