Detailed description?! Followed the exact steps you told us to in an email - server never gets past waiting for host

Dayz.st guys I'm not regretting switching thats for sure

Rofl Followed the email instructions to the letter my private hive is now broken and is stuck at wait for host. Exactly why we cancelled our subscription, at the rate these people fix problems we probably won't even get a chance to tell the few members we had left to our hive our new hosts details.

try being hosted with SS before you start crying out for new maps when they have only just been released lol I'll be happy if Tavania is added within a week or two :P

Timed messages working for me but they are in caps for some reason? death messages working fine too :D

Ah cool thanks for that automated warnings is a nice addition. Didn't realise there was no BEC or antihax, hopefully these come soon, we never had enough people in our SS server to encounter many hackers seeing as the rest of their service was so shitty.

We've always found it useful for being able to read chat messages but yeah it doesn't always get updated until the server restarts, sometimes stuff is missing too, its not major it is something I miss though. Great news thanks I'll take a look at the messages table, didn't realise there was a database method for handling it. Really can't wait for the static date values shouldn't be a big edit so hopefully you get it in soon. I have got to say I am so impressed so with your infrastructure tools and setup times, maybe it's just because I came from such a terrible host before lol. Once FTP is in place I will be a happy man indeed, can't recommend your services enough. My only other question is, what times do the scheduled restarts take place, I would like to put warning messages in for my users but don't know what time to set them for. Also is the server clock GMT (I'm on the london host).

Any chance of making the server_console log available in the log files? Also support for multi line MOTD and the new Bliss static date value? So impressed with your service and control panel leagues ahead of SS no idea why I went with them originally.

No but I can also create custom spawns using the map tool provided to me by my new Dayz.st server which lets me define vehicle spawns wherever I want without touching the db. They offer pretty much everything you do for the same money, the only feature I miss is being able to switch maps without starting a new database and that never even worked on my SS private hive. I even installed my own copy of BlissAdmin which is actually up to date and works properly unlike yours. Your Dayztool does nothing useful for the price you charge people for it, $5 for automated removal of deployables and out of bound vehicles that's literally it. I hope you enjoy having a reduced workload now all your remaining customers are leaving maybe one day you'll manage to write something that works properly. I'm glad I will never have to deal with your company again, you managed about 5 days of satisfactory hosting in over 3 weeks, with 3 days down time. GREAT WORK.

Switched just now from shitty SS, so impressed so far once I have ftp access I will be over the moon.

My server is buggy already and has been since day 1: it's 2 versions of bliss behind - humanitiy has never worked, it took 2 days and 2 support tickets to get the DayzTools script to ever spawn vehicles and it still doesn't work correctly. Vehicles repair themselves automatically (toolbox glitch on 1.7.3), ammo replenishes itself automatically, peoples inventories get wiped on logout, and more. I also had to wait 2 days with no server at all and no response from SS as to why. Switching the server to another map has never worked (yes I did change all the settings to point it to the correct DB). Go play on one of the private hives hosted by any of the other server companies which is already running the new patch everything works better than my SS server. It's obviously not that hard to deploy bliss updates and patches if you have the right infastructure or every other host wouldn't do it so quickly. I have friends hosting private hives with other hosts and they have never had anywhere near the number of issues I have had with SS. None of them have been complaining about waves of bugs since the 1.7.4.4 update they certainly notice bugs when they use my server though. They won't get it right even when they do make the updates. Nearly all the major providers were up on the new patch within a matter of hours. It's not like SS have some kind of amazing reputation for their stability, they're cheap and thats the only thing they have going for them.

I can't believe they still haven't upgraded the private hives, it's a total joke especially as the new patch doesn't require them to update anything else. If it takes these clowns this long to apply a patch every other major server host has been running for over a week now there is no hope for them. I'm sure that when they eventually do roll out all these updates they are promising they will be late and full of problems and bugs. I am moving my server to another host. Claiming that the updates are delayed so you can also upgrade bliss and dayztools has no bearing on anything. The new patch has been proven to work on the outdated buggy version of bliss 4.0 SS run, and dayztools and their map just reads and writes sql data (badly in my experience) neither are required for a functioning server. There's a reason this thread is full of angry comments about your service SS, no one is picking on you unnecessarily, you are doing a terrible job and clearly have no where near enough staff or experience. I'm sure support for your few remaining users who don't mind using totally outdated and non functioning software will improve once everyone else has cancelled their subscriptions and moved to a competent server host.

Yeah its a bliss hive, I needed to run build.pl for some changes I wanted to make anyway. Gonna back everything I can up today and try it as my server has lost all of it's regular players because of the delay in these updates being released hopefully I don't break it.

can you confirm its just a case of replacing the @dayz folder? I couldn't find much info on manually updating it and just wanted to be sure

thanks man didnt realize doing it myself was even an option I'm going to give it a go now :D

Any news on when the new patch and the latest bliss are actually going to be available?

Yep I'll be doing the same thing at the end of the month, wish I'd thought to google these guys before I placed my order.

Anyone elses login details now not working for anything except TCAdmin? It's just one problem after another with these guys.

From my testing with vehicles yesterday they still aren't working properly. They spawn now, however all the vehicles in my server spawned fully repaired despite my settings in dayztools saying to spawn them damaged. These vehicles also magically repaired themselves when I got out and refuelled. As for my support ticket about my server being down, it still hasn't even received a response yet. And I'm sure when it eventually does the support teams response will be of absolutely no use. The server came back online yesterday (after 30hours+ of complete inaccessible downtime). Knowing if your servers are up or down is incredibly basic for any system admin, failing to communicate these problems to customers is inexcusable.

I've had my server two days it has been completely down for more than half that time with absolutely no response from SS absolutely horrible customer service

Thankyou so much for the morphine and assistance I am very grateful for the amazing service you provide I will follow all of your advice :)

So sad :( I'm under the power lines in Msta broke a leg climbing down the dear stand ladder, 7.5k blood not bleeding need morphine any help would be greatly appreciated steamid: http://steamcommunity.com/id/weaseed
