Survival RPG game? Nope. KOS FPS game. YES. Why do people even pretend this is anything but an FPS shooter... with the minor nuisance of zombies thrown in. All zombies do is make it easier top know if another player is nearby. Oh look zombies spwaned up ahead and we're too far away to spawn them. Someone must be there, lets camp them. Rinse and repeat.

RPG elements in DAyZ. Well atm there is none. Nobody plays this as a survival game. It's all about player killing. I was on a server and people were boasting their -90K humanity in side channel. There is no RPG in DayZ. It is KOS or be KOS'd even if that means shooting players on the beach. I've been shot MANY times spawning on the beach on many different servers.

I found this gun on a sniper who had ab M4 CCO SD as well. Running on a different server (due to extreme lag on my normal one) I got Banned by the admin for having it. is it a hacked weapon? And can you get banned for using a weapon that you picked up off another player? US 1461 is the server if the ban is not legit.

SO I can be banned for finding a weapon on another player. My clan mate also got banned and he did NOT have a PDW SD on him.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Mawhinney The M14 is a sniper rifle. Read that article. It is also a 1 shot kill.

Really? Would you let me shoot you center mass with my AR15 (M16) .223 or .308? I guaranty it will kill you with 1 shot... I'm not taking about shooting you in the intestines, I'm taking about my military training shooting you in the upper chest. Besides in a world without doctors.. an intestinal shot would most likely be fatal... just very slowly. Bandaging internal bleeding doesn't do much. What is messed up is that most weapons in this game DON'T kill with 1 hit. Is everyone wearing body armor? Body Armor should actually be rare not the Barret 50 cal. And Zombies should only be brought down with head shots. Every Walmart has AR15s Every Academy Sports has them as well. A zombie acopc in America... well guns and ammo would NOT be scarce. .308s can kill you one shot center mass. Can people survive center mass hits. Yes they can. Many people do, because of great doctors. People survive HEADSHOTS because of great doctors. Look a Sen Giffords... amazing. But we're talking about apoc, and there are no doctors and no hospitals staffed with trauma teams. Bandaging should not "heal" internal bleeding. Infection should be way more common from ANY wound.

Not really. It's just another QQ thread, but this ones in disguise. It's another I got killed by hackers, but instead of saying it outright I'll try to insult them thread. In the end all it is is another one of the thousands of QQ threads about hack/scripting on these forums. All this type of thread does is feed the script kiddes your sorrows and tears. That is exactly why many do what they do. Your post probably gives them great joy and laughter because it IS another QQ thread.

I like how apathetic the first response is. Hack/Scripting is so rampant people do not even care when you show proof. If you don't show proof then you're a liar, but when you do they don't care because they don't want to see it. It could be them you caught on video and they're afraid read the thread. I'm sorry no one cares, but I'm glad you have proof. It would be cool if BE did something about it, but...

If you buy Combined Operations to play DayZ and then HATE DAyZ... the majority of fanbois on this forum will flame you for buying ArmaCO just to play DAyZ. Use the search function and look it up. You'll see I'm right. They'll tell you it's a great game and sure buy it, but if you dislike it they'll tell you you're as ass for buying it "just for DayZ" and It's your fault you moron. It's a wonderful community of hatred and loathing. i think many are sociopaths. Smile ot your face when they meet you and stab you in the back when you turn around or show any sign of weakness. However, if you don't mind losing $30 to TEST a BETA (1.7.2.5 is listed as a BETA) then sure try it out. If you don't mind crawling for hours (seriously) then try it out. If you don't mind getting bored with killing zombies because they are pathetique, and are forced into PvP with hackers, then buy it. I have tried Amra2 when thoroughly bored with DayZ and hate Arma2 and CO. Despite all of that.... I still play DayZ. Why you ask? I'm glad you asked. I still play DayZ because I play it with friends and we find things to do to amuse ourselves. It's sometimes hard to find something to do, and often we all log off after 30-60 minutes later having accomplished nothing, but I would not still be playing if my friends were not on with me. Going solo... you must be a masochist. (or a Skiddie) Edit: they changed the patch to Alpha on the main page. The first day it actually said Beta for a bit. But feel free to flame on. It will only prove how bad the forums/community are.

Firstly, I'm not an idiot. Secondly, I was complaing about the graphical bug in multiple posts in multiple threads. I was also DEFENDING people from the mororns that ran around saying "I have no issues you suck" or "Video memory to default and it will fix it". Those did not resolve the issues for me and many people and I addressed that. Need I go on? SO no I was not wandering around in the woods looking at trees. I went to Green Mountain and NW Airfield. No issues at either place when both were unplayable for me previously. Previous graphics for me. As you can see I had BAD artifacts. http://steamcommunit...23/screenshots/ Sorry, I'm not going to get new shots just for you. I DID change my cfg file back to 300,000 from 100,000, which I set it to previously to try and fix the unfixable problem.

Update 2nd post. 1.7.2.5 Server Beta 95883 Client Beta 95883 No graphical issues. Problems resolved. Same settings as tested in previous post, and the same results.

Version 1.7.2.5 Beta Patch Serverside 95417 Beta Patch Client side 95660 Graphical Issue fixed. Previously unplayable, now no issues. I messed with graphic settings and still no issue. Obj Detail low, normal, Very High... no issues. HDR VH... no issues Textures VH... no issues I will test the newest beta [atch and a server running the newest beta patch to see if the glitch returns. That will be added in a 2nd post and editing this one for clarity. EDIT: Update 2nd post. 1.7.2.5 Server Beta 95883 Client Beta 95883 No graphical issues. Problems resolved. Same settings as tested in previous post, and the same results. AMD 965BE ASUS Crosshair V 990FX AMD HD 6870 w/12.6 catalyst drivers

US 884, {Name deleted by NotYou culprit found in server logs} gets kicked for this violation. 2 minutes later he rejoins the server, and an invisible person starts firing some LMG at us almost immediately after [He] rejoined the server. Necio please look into this. 5:56pm CST. I would be wary of any person getting kicked for this violation. Edit: we were literally off the map in the middle of nowhere. 2nd Edit: The Hacker, was not the one kicked for the script violation.

You don't need a HIGH end keyboaard. All you need is a Sidewinder X4 MS keyboard. It allows you to program any combination of keystrokes. That is how I ALt + F4 when I'm stuck in a really nasty combat situation on the beach and some maniac has an axe and is running in zig zags so I can't shoot him with my AS50.

They don;t have to design a new engine from teh ground up. They already stated they standalone is based on the Arma3 engine, but will be a seperate game (i.e. standalone) from Arma3. Since Arma3 is coming soon, DayZ is sure to follow just as quickly. I for 1 agree with the OP, and I also think that ATM DayZ is taking a hit. Sure 4000 new players a day.... whatever. How many continue playing once they get hacked over and over in their first few days... how many are still playing when they run into the dread graphic glitch over and over... how many continue to play when they pick up something from the ground and they lose their weapon or ammo or stuff disappears in their backpack. Just because people DL the game does NOT mean 1,000,000 people are actively playing the Mod. I guaranty many have left without a word, and the few who leave a notice to why they are leaving a game(sorry, ALPHA MOD MORON) they wanted to work get flamed to hell and back.

I've read your thread Raven and gave ya muh beans as well. I understand exactly what you are saying, but some people need to vent, and this is their only place to vent. Starting a new thread.... well that's debatable, but venting because you've gotten hacked, nuked, Thunder-domed repeatedly... that is ALSO understandable. IMO Rocket needs to ditch Arma and get a new engine/game to mod or get the standalone out FAST. I've been in countless betas, andI've seen Beta ruin the reputation of a game. this game is on the brink of that. I would love to see a standalone of this, but Arma has proven itself to be a bad game to base this mod upon. Rocket & Team have done a great job creating a mod on this game, but it's so open to hscripts, and so full of bugs (worst inventory system ever) that it is killing the idea. The idea needs to survive, and I don't feel it will while the "Mod" is based on Amra's engine.

This game is KOS, and so are the forums. Posting about hacking is asking to get Killed On Sight.

It would be kind of hard to "detain" a guy dropping nukes on the server or teleporting you to Thunderdome. But I guess you can always try, the hacker will surely enjoy it.

Standalone, or nothing. This "mod" is being built upon a bad system (for a game like the Mod is trying to create). They only way to fix that is to find a different engine, or create one like they are trying to do. As it stands, the game is rapidly losing people (I haven't played in over a week), and patches are not going to magically fix it. they need to find a different engine (game) to Mod or release the standalone before their reputation gets hit too badly. I'm also sure fanbois will stay regardless, and the hackers, they'll stay too until it's only hacker versus hacker like BF3

I was in the Regulators in Shadowbane. Great group. We took down the Rollin 30's (a nasty griefing guild) under the LAPD tag.

Simple logic would come to the conclusion that this does not work for everyone. As iterated by the 100's of posts on this subject, so making a statement like that is useless and moronic. We all have read the plethora of ideas that abound on how to fix this problem. And we have all read the "I have no issues" responses. It's getting old. Our Clan has stopped playing until this, and the hacks are fixed, and as you can read (can you) many others are doing the same. If a fix does not come soon, it could very well hurt the population badly and rocket's chance for a true standalone. Especially when someone is working on releasing a similar game very soon (supposedly). Even if (the other game) does not come out... a lot of people will leave if things don;t get fixed. It won;t be very fun playing on a server all by yourself now will it? I've seen MANY games fail due to stuff like this. Add the hacking, and you have a recipe for disaster for this mod.

That's because he's a bandit.... duh!

Another thing for people to exploit to hell and back. I understand why you posted it, but perhaps you should have PM'd it to an ADMIN. Not in general for all the asshats to see and exploit.

Seriously? I can see it now. A bandit shoots guy and then bandages him, then kills him. According to your guideline. He is neutral at 0 kills. And if you think that is not possible... I've actually had that happen to me. Also... there is a video of hackers in limo's... they shot a dude so he had broken legs so he had to crawl around and BANDAGED him to keep him alive and stuck crawling around. If you make the reward system too easy, it will be like Ultima Online, where you had people with FULL honor PKing people, and then just killing mobs to get Honor back.
