A forest would be awesome, but seeing as this is all about a stonecold, deadly, end of the dayz-virus, a containment has had to have happened in "my" honest opinion :) Wouldn't have been realistic in any other way I think? But an big expanding forest beyond the wall would actually not be so unrealistic, atleast not in Cherno-Russia.

A "no fly zone" outside the walls, a couple of entryways sealed of by dead soldiers and wreckages...? Would atleast give an idea that someone outside tried to contain this virus and still is. With the possibility that someone made it through, and the virus spread, it leaves other "maps" open for discussion atleast, with regards to expanding the S.A. Hoping for alot of discoverable stories/news ingame when they start dropping more and more stuff into alpha/beta after release.

Peeps, peepettes... Just curious if there's bean any mention to how borders are to be made for the SA map? Watching Doomsday on Netflix now, and the first 10 minutes resembles DayZ alot... would be awesome to have that sort of borders around the outlining map... Pardon my shit english. And yes, watching movies, as I cannot play anything else now in anticipation of the SA :(

Looking forward to getting them back, it did alot with making it feel like the infection was widespread and nowhere was safe. Getting stomped while checking your map? Tough luck!

Well played!

Wow, some of the ideas here is really, really great! Guessing that someone from DEV will revert on this soon :)

I just came across this gem after googling "It'll be done when it's done"... :) I'm not into coding at all, so I have no clue if this goes for the development DayZ or not... Guess someone will rage at me if not... ;) http://anthillonline...code-pig-video/

Well, yes I see that, but my comment goes for the devblogs and information, as much as the Alpha release.

“Hastiness and superficiality are the psychic diseases of the twentieth century.” - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn I'm as impatient as the rest of you guys, but calm down for heaven's sake... It'll be done when it's done. I want to go raging as a motherf***** for the lack of response too, but there's nothing we can do but wait. I've found that angrily chewing horrendous amounts of large bubblegums can keep me occupied for hours at a time.

I couldn't agree more. DayZ has most surely got my vote. Keep on truckin'!

You were just unlucky I guess. I've been alot at the mapborder looking for camps etc, and I've always come across an animal or two regularly.

Well, I won't bother bitching more on this subject, as there are infact some valid facts on the table here. But I can also add that you could see all 3 of us, without NW, in the darkest nighttime there is in the game. (We 3 all had NW, and could see that you had none) There were perhaps 7-8 players all together on the server, and seeing as this was aaall the way Skalka, what are the precentage chance for some other player to "suddenly" spot us? (And regards to someone hearing the shots, you were killed some 500-600 meters away from Skalka and the truckspawn... The shots came from our side, northeast direction of Skalka, and right next to us...) Second, you were killed as noone wants a tagalong without asking permission to join us. (Besides, you kept pointing your weapon at them. How about lowering it the next time you want to act friendly) Doesn't matter what I say I guess, but I've read more than enough forumposts here to know that enough people have killed others, to then suddenly having the killed person respawn, teleport and exact revenge. I'm just saying, the timing couldn't have been better for a soreass to want to demonstrate his "godlike" admin powers to get back at us. And combatlog when fighting hackers IS allowed.

Hi, Lobo here. Me and 3 friends, Mariann, Crazyglue and Lurtch (Lurtch was way up NE away from us), were playing on NO 56 this evening when between 11:50 - 12:10 when we found an Ural at Skalka NW on the map. My friends ran to Lopetino to find some wheels and stuff for repair, while I ran to the warehouses at the NW airfield. While in Lopatino, they encountered a "friendly" called Andreas B. After some chatter, my friends decided to run back up north, but he decided to follow them. Seeing as we found this curious, and they thought his behaviour was a bit "off", I decided to lay in ambush, so: 1. He wouldnt discovered the FIRST vehicle we've found so far. 2. 2. He couldn't decide to suddenly kill us off. I killed him pretty quickly... :-/ Didn't feel right, but hey, we didn't want our first try to get a vehicle going go sideways. We ran up back to the truck to repair a tyre and fill up some gas, when Andreas B wrote in BLUFOR-chat, saying: "I wish I could choose who are able to play on this server ;)". We then saw on the playerlist that he was ADMIN. (it said so in his title) 5 seconds after he said that, we were fired upon and Mariann was killed, while me and and Crazyglue ran off to cover. We disconnected, and thats that. Hope this will be looked into, goddamn hackers and admins with too much control are way off nowadays.

Can't see what people are complaining about. This patch gave lots of good fixes to the game, and less artifacting. (perhaps in 1/10 games I play, but a restart fixes it). Thanks Rocket and staff :thumbsup:

Hey. It's happened to me alot, if I've logged out too soon, after picking up new gear. Best solution would be to stay ingame for 5-10 minutes after getting the gear to ensure that you still have it upon next login. (Edit) Come to think of it, I don't know what causes this, except maybe some server lag issues or something. But I've lost more than a rifle or two on logging out too quick after looting it.
