I lost all gear 2 times
Element47 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
the mod currently lacks provision for the cases, when your connection stalls while connecting to the server and fetching data from the hive.. this can happen if you have a lag spike and battleye kicks you for high ping while in the loading screen: you then stay in the login screen forever. on the next connection, the hive has incomplete or inconsistent data on your client, so you get a faulty spawn. as much gamebreaking this might be, its not to be expected to be fixed ahead of normal update cycle in an alpha. might be adressed in 1.7.3., but doesnt have to. if you happen to witness it, provide a bug report with a detailed description, thats the best you can do -
thats why i am REALLY not sure about his response.. but who am i to argue with jesus anyway :D

Abandoned or just Incommunicado?
Element47 replied to BennyBoy's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
remember TF2? said to be released "soon" in 1998, actual release in 2007. 2012 still a success story. things get done when they get done. get a grip. at alpha and early beta, there is no point in hotfixing, instead even major gamebreaking bugs will be incorporated into the normal patch cycle. might even take longer than usual with parallel work of standalone. if you cant accept this, thats fine, just wait for final release of standalone, probably to come 2013 or 2014. It also takes 10 minutes of the day to write feedback on gameplay and bugreports, but 99% of the community dont do that, but rant instead that they cant enjoy a polished product.. go figure -
BAMF Medic w/ Stupid Question
Element47 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
screw the humanity, but dropping another player without knowing his intention isnt my course of action. maybe he was a reformed bandit, maybe he lost humanity due to defending himself from KoS on the coast.. my opinion: you did right, independent of the consequences. -
Humanity Farming= Possibility?
Element47 replied to Peachy Pete's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
be the 'good guy pete' and it will come automatically. -
a perfect symbiosis of candy-sweet appearance and scalpel-sharp wit. a beacon amidst darkness. i admit, i am a M O N S T E R fanboy.

the medic thread might be the best source for "clients" - best wishes of luck and success to you, hope to see you soon whitelisted :)

i favor a M9SD when dealing with patients, its not too intimidating and allows for silent disposal of stray Zed. When traveling the wilderness and highlands, i usually carry my trusty Mk48: you can one-shot most single targets, its inventory-efficient with a ratio of 50 bullets per inventory slot, and you can unleash a shitstorm of lead and fire upon the land when the need arises. When looting cities, alone or in team, hatchet is definitely the weapon of my choice. of course, those are personal preferences not related to my hero skin.. i can definitely recommend the hatchet though, its more efficient than the crowbar - although the crowbar may be percieved as more stylish :)

My thoughts on every server becoming Cherno and Elektro DM
Element47 replied to Cyanide_I's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
being forced to walk, or to rely on your team to have transport arranged when you need it does add a lot to the game... traversing the highlands on foot still is a thrill to me, because you never know when you gonna meet that other guy currently running to Vybor/NWAF/Sobor.. if vehicles were overabundant, the map would suddenly become much smaller.. i love me bicycles though, fast, silent and basically indestructible, the most OP vehicle in the game :) -
i just found and shot myself ??????
Element47 replied to x13x's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
the game of one of our squadmates crashed recently, upon returning to the game his body still stood upright at our camp, and remained there for nearly three days, until the server restarted. I kind of miss our "wookie scarecrow" now.. as long as he stood there, our camp wasnt raided.. (also great to temp. store items or for shooting practice) -
i have found a M24 in a deerstand twice so far.. deerstands are your friends, they not only spawn nice weaponry and ammo, but also beans and soda.. ;)

2 people, should i kill them?
Element47 replied to Gabe Newell's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
chopper, uaz, motoribike at camp, tents with AS50 and M107, ghillie suits.. MUST BE BANDITS! ..or it could be just the medics and their overwatch :rolleyes: the decision is yours - just dont be too sure of your assumptions, because you really never know. -

What happens to/with British Soldier Uniforms if you downgrade to 1.7.2.5?
Element47 replied to Obsolescence's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
supposedly hacked in. only clothing to spawn in the game is ghillie suit and camo clothing. civilian clothing/female clothing is not spawning but can be found when a player changed his original clothing to either ghillie or camo, thus leaving his civilian clothes behind. -
LF rangefinder and ghillie - Weapons on offer
Element47 replied to Sharpaviva's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
i have both spare RF and spare ghillie.. however i am not interested in the weapons.. i'd give each of the requested items for a set of basic tools: hatchet,map, compass, knife and box of matches -
Just killed a guy and got L115A3 LLR
Element47 replied to flygamer1's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
as much as i support getting rid of hacked and duped items - please show me one instance of people getting global bans for picking up a hacked gun that was spawned by someone else already.. -
Cody, you need to post more replies, so i can give you more beans. i would love to bring some boar steaks to a BBQ on the streets of Elektro, if i knew where to meet you :)

Respawn at the beach and gear loss
Element47 replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
i'd like to add my voice to those lamenting this issue. connecting to a server stalls, need to kill the game as there is no timeout in place, reconnecting to another server spawns me at the beach either with gear or without.. -
this needs to be made into a hotfix ASAP. @korthyr: viewer and packer are all linked at the tools page of bohemia wiki

Potential Graphical Artifacting Fixes
Element47 replied to Legacy (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
running Windows 7 x64 on a first gen Core i7 CPU and Nvidia GTX 260.. updating the drivers and turning off threading optimization actually worsened the artifacting for me, i now get it in places i didnt get it before, like Kamyshovo.. flushing works randomly, sometimes it works after flushing ~10 times, sometimes not at all.. -
yes, it has already been posted on several occasions, and been discussed in several threads. keep in mind that many (if not most) servers will not allow custom file upload to reduce the attack vector of hackers, and thus you wont be able to join that servers.

tents arent working perfectly. yes, duping is a serious issue. but they bring an aspect of persistence to the game which is of real value, and they also support group gameplay by allowing the creation of caches/droppoints. i am sure most of us have thought about ways to 'fix' the tents, how tent mechanics should be adjusted, or whether or not they should be removed completely. i think the tent gameplay mechanic is a valuable addition to the game, it just need to be fixed and balanced.
