Thanks, I didn't know there was this mechanic in DayZ. I'm assuming it's a carry over thing from Arma? I never really played that much, just DayZ Mod and now DayZ SA. I guess the reduction in dexterity overrides the floating zone setting? I did notice that the crossbow has EXTREME floating despite being set to minimum.

What's this mean?

Yea I only play Exp these days really, just love testin' new shit out! Needless to say there's plenty of frustrations, but I've been in it since DayZero and Dean Hall is from my hometown so I'm like, intrinsically bound to play DayZ FOREVER!

I didn't see that you'd moved it! And you moved it to a "slightly-not-quite-the-same-problem" thread. I've just never seen this particular Exp server problem before. Thanks for paying me some attention though! ^_^

OK, let's try it in this section of the forum. Anyone else notice that this server is always at 14:51 with 13/40 players and when you try to log in you get stuck at the "Wait for host" screen?

I posted about the AU/NZ 0-1 server being broken this morning, multiple people viewed it (no comments) and now it's GONE! Not even in my content listing, wtfx!

Hi guys, Anyone else not able to log into this server? For the last 18 hours or so it's been "stuck" at 14:51 and with the same 13/40 players in the server. Hrrmm????

Glow sticks... So I haven't had much success finding gear or food in the latest exp build, but there's evidence of ravers ERRRRRYWHURRR!

Less common. That bug has happened to me once only and that was over a month ago.

I don't think this thread needs any more content than that which the subject provides.

Fantastic responses guys, especially the ones who got butt hurt. Your words bring tears (of laughter) to my eyes. I don't mean to denigrate the issue though, it is annoying.

Uhm just noticing there's no function on the mobile site to go to the start of the thread. I've gotta push back like 57 times to are the OP?

Hi all, I thought I'd create a place for us to chat about the Australian DayZ experimental servers. I see a lot of survivors on these servers, so I'd like to know how many of the Australian players are looking for a forum, so that we can meet up, join forces, arrange rivalries and turf wars or work on testing some bugs. I'll definitely be hosting a server here in Australia once DayZ SA development comes a little further and I imagine most of you playing on the experimental servers are dedicated to the cause gamers, so building a community is a big goal for me. I tend to roleplay the insane leader of a para-military unit (clan), generally equipping myself and my friends out with high grade military gear, operating as an experienced tactical unit and interrogating at gunpoint anyone else suspected of being a rival para-military solider ^_^ I've got a few questions that I'd like to ask the community so I'll start with one: Does anyone know who the host is for the four experimental servers we have here? Surely they're hosted somewhere in Adelaide or Sydney as the pings I'm getting in Melbourne are really good. That doesn't help with the rubberbanding in the experimental build though! Feel free to leave any thoughts, questions, flames or beans here and I hope to see you in the wasteland. Perfstz Recon By Fire Unit

Breathe.... aaaaallllpppphhhhaaaaaaa.

Hey tilly-tango, this thread is intended for discussions pertaining to the Australian Experimental servers. If you have general issues, there are other forums to discuss. Cheers.

Is there something wrong with the Experimental servers right now? I've just come back from "the country" and the only servers are on the other side of the world!

I voted yes, but really I'd just like to see it do more DAMAGE. The fire axe is a 1 hit kill any time (maybe OP), a splitting axe takes 2, yet a machete takes about 30 hits even if some of them are headshots that knock the Z down. Doesn't make sense to me. /shrug it is an Alpha though, I do imagine tweaking of damage is something that will have it's own dedicated period of testing in the future.

BF4 it is then!

My Steam friend list shows none that are playing DayZ, but I have "friends" as described above show on the in-game server browser. Like before, they have different names and I can't see why they're showing up at all?

I believe this bug is common with a lot of survivors, but there's been no official mention of it yet. It's REALLY REALLY REALLY annoying, let me tell you that.

Apart from my own, I cannot see any Direct Chat (and as I understand it there are no other channels at the moment so can't see them either). Other people can see mine though, reactions have been duly noted but I haven't heard a peep.

What you might want to consider before this gets COMPLETELY off topic, is that the OP is talking about the bug whereby some survivors don't see others direct communication. There are plenty of other threads about this issue now, thank Christ. I'm one of the people affected by this bug, so you can kinda think of me as a disabled person (I also have really bad eyesight, my shoulder is bung from wrestling and knees from skateboarding).

Well then people ARE seeing the babble I've been typing to them, but I haven't seen any replies. Guess I've got the bug too.

Survivors can stick axes on our backs, but not hammers in our belt loops? Should we have to take up inventory space for 'em?

Funny bugger. Blu tack should be a usable item.
