Hey guys! My friend just set up a server, and we were hoping to get some people on. Either search: Chav's DayZ on DayZ commander or use the ip 146.185.23.130:3272 Some notes on why you should play - Starting loadout with makarov, hatchet, watch and compass - Active Admins - Some extra vehicles and helis scattered around the place! Please check it out guys, there's like four players on atm :)

title says it all, we need either doomy (the owner) or an admin to come on, if anybody knows of anyone who can help please contact them.

How powerful a computer would I need to run a standard 50 player public server nice and smoothly? In terms of specs such as graphics, processor power ram and storage. Thanks in advance :)

Aah well I can understand their unwillingness to share, perhaps once I have the website setup etc. I can send an email to one of them and try and arrange something, and thanks for the link Be4st!

I always just jog to one of the major cities after spawning, like everyone else says 30 minutes is adequate.

Thanks, looks like I will just need to wait till the release of standalone to get the servers up and running :)

Title says it all really. I'm looking to set up a server hosting company and the first servers we plan on hosting are DayZ ones.

I love how you insult macs for being overpriced yet say you would buy an alienware, I had one, it caught on fire, waste of over a grand.

Okay, so I just thought I'd share a recent experience of mine where I was completely unarmed yet able to defeat/scare off a gun wielding player. (TL;DR version at the bottom) I had just freshly spawned in Kamyshovo and was coming up to the warehouse building at the harbour, when I notice someone inside. I immediately take cover and say my usual speil: "Friendly" "Dude? I'm friendly don't shoot" "I'm unarmed" etc. etc. I warn him that I'm coming in and am unarmed but as I poke my head round the door her fires his revolver at me, the shot flying past my head (and just missing) and sending my character into a state of shock. Now I'd had quite an unlucky streak of deaths at this point and wasn't about to be player killed again, so I crouch-ran to the back of the warehouse and hid. A few moments later I see the man with his ALICE pack and revolver proning his way out of the town. I thought to myself that it wasn't fair that he would get off with making an attempt on my life, when some inspiration hit me. I immediately stood up and began sprinting around the town, getting sadly only about 3 zombies agrro'd, and then ran at the man as he was crawling away, my undead legion trailing behind me. He didn't notice me until I had closed a sizeable gap, and he was forced to sprint to avoid the angry zombies. While we were running side by side I opened his ALICE pack, glad to see that you could still run while taking gear, and acquire what little supplies he had inside (morphine food and drink). I then sprinted into the treeline and left the douche to his fate, hopefully he will reconsider attacking unarmed players in the future. TL;DR: If you're unarmed use zombies as a weapon and steal shit from another player's backpack while he/she is running.

Pretty sure you posted before saying you were previously banned for hacking? I'm sure all the loot you have to trade is totally legit...

haha back when I had a PBX I had the exact same problem, lost it now sadly. But on the bright side I now have a van!

Well I for one after collecting enough gear am going to organise various in game events, you know emergent gameplay? I think solidifying the community and introducing noobs to the finer points of the game will be more fun than shooting them with my Czz50 :)

See if banditry was the equivalent of real world bandits in that they would rob people at gunpoint, then this would be interesting! I agree entirely with the original post, we need some more goals in game etc. to help take people away from the snipe noobs mentality that is corroding the community.

Spawning with a weapon is cheating, think yourself lucky you dont get banned.
