My brother was playing on Seattle 7 and he saw this on screen:

This happened to me when I was in a house with no windows pointed at me, i either got shot through a wall or the zombie which appeared beside me took my m4 1911 and then decided I couldn't have my pack even though it was on my body. (found a bike and hauled ass back to my old 40 hours of play corpse.)

sounds good to me, so long as it's impossible to operate on your own. Being pinned down by a 50 with one guy on it would suck because you know he's got a friend flanking you.

I'd like to know what country you live in; in the US there are lots of M4 style AR rifles floating around as well as tonnes of pistols and many many hunting rifles and shot guns. Canada to a lesser extent is the same thing, this is where I live. I've got two AR-15s different configurations and toys and useless shit hanging off of them just for fun, as well as a Mossberg shotgun and some other shit. (And I get to shoot as a part of my job which is awesome) And if FALs weren't prohib here I'd have one so I'm waiting on some other 308 (read high power) toys to become available.. You have to remember this is post soviet Russia we're talking about as well. There would be lots of AKs around. If you felt like it the fluff could include that there was an abandoned bunker /storage warehouse that was raided and that is how these weapons got out.

Yea but that is where the anti server hopping, too many disconnect re load prevention comes in, there by denying people access to the game if they continue to do as you suggest.

Nothing personal; but with out evidence there is no reason to investigate. tl;dr pics or it didn't happen.

They don't get punished; it's a game balancing characteristic. Additionally if people with crap PCs are trying to play and their systems are slow. It will slow down the server for everyone. I think 750-1000 is optimal, anymore is just too much. I don't enjoy being sniped or having people take pot shots at me, and realistically no one is going to snipe at the end of the world from more than 500m away. It would be a waste of ammo.

No thanks, I think that there should be no class system. This isn't an MMORPG, its a MMOsurvival game. You can adopt certain roles with in your group if you have one but there should be no predefined classes.

No this would totally break the game. The whole having no short cuts and making decisions regarding where you go based on your resources is critical to the pacing of the game. Cars are worth it when you find the parts, but if it was super easy to get it would break the game as well.

wah wah wah poor you. I love my map deal with it.

IMO When you've just started after dying, or it is your first time playing you have nothing to lose by running and ramboing your way through towns til you find some good stuff. Because if you die, its not like you had any good kit to be up set over.

Nope I bought it to play Arma 2

I didn't see any posts on the forum regarding this issue, I have had horrible FPS since this patch came out. I went from running at 50-70FPS on max settings to 4-7fps sometimes it spikes to 10-12 for a bit. After playing on a few different servers I believe it's an issue with the server spawning too many items and vehicles and bodies; Several servers had horrible FPS but tonnes of loot and no zombies. This happened on TX1 and ANZ1 for sure and a few others whose names I can't remember. This was around 20:000-24:00 EST It also happened to my buddies who I was playing with we're all located in Ontario Canada if that makes any difference although I don't think it does. And finally, at one point the server glitched out and I was out of my bandit body, and now looking like a normal player with all my kit. I couldn't kill the old body and it was just laying prone looking around. As I ran around I found other players frozen in place and I could loot their bags.

I had zero zombies; occasionally a few would spawn and then dissappear.

I've killed my self several times doing this; I completely agree this needs to be added. This isn't the first thread regarding this though.

Same problem; My current set up is: CPU: AMD Phenom II x6 1065t @ 4.0 ghz/1.5v CPU Cooler: Cooler Master V6 GT Mobo: Asus M5A99x EVO Ram: 4 Gigs RAM PSU: Cooler Master Silent ProM 850 GPU:2xCrossfireX Asus 6850 Case: HAF 912

What kind of hardware are you running? Here's mine and i average 4-7 FPS (down from 50-70) in this mod revision. My current set up is: CPU: AMD Phenom II x6 1065t @ 4.0 ghz/1.5v CPU Cooler: Cooler Master V6 GT Mobo: Asus M5A99x EVO Ram: 4 Gigs RAM PSU: Cooler Master Silent ProM 850 GPU:2xCrossfireX Asus 6850 Case: HAF 912

RE: You were kicked from the game Make sure you have the -mod=@dayz added to your launch options in steam, or to the target in the short cut for the retail version. And that your mod is installed to the correct directory. It was kicking me out before I could even connect to the server because I had installed to the wrong folder when trying to do it from memory on my Brothers PC.

You may have to find and remove all other mods from your Arma2 installation if the issue keeps happening, but did you remove the -mod=@blablablamodhereblablabla from the launch options and or target for the short cut?

I had the exact same glitch as you.

You should send an e-mail to the devs/admin with as much detail as possible. They are the only ones who can fix this for you if you were unjustly banned.
