I'm not powering up my server or bother logging in until the hive server load eases up, i'll power it back up in the morning where the stress is not as heavy as it is during my night as it is morning in eu, almost midnight on the west coast.

but the dayz website has been going down frequently lately or sometimes completely down for hours. and posting replies does take nearly 15~30 seconds instead of instantly like most forums do.

My server went down shortly after a player fixed up the helicopter at the large island, it was pitch black on the server, so unless you had nvg, flares, or chem lights you couldnt see anything. He took off the island like 3 minutes into flight, he took a nosedive crashing into the bay near the mainland killing 7 other players but somehow he made it out alive with 5k blood, bleeding. then everyone started to run in place, with no server message.

Well it's probably not new people on the job, it's just the single hive server this mod is running on is over capacity, thus adding additional linked hive servers should alleviate the stress with the growing server load / player load. Every day or so 10~100 servers or 1000 players get added to the list.

Servers crapping out is nothing new to me as i sat in front of my computer during blizzard's patch days or release days through hours or days of downtime.

i am guessing the forums is connected to the hive and one of the following is happening right now, a. forums are being hammered, b. hive is being hammered with mass logins or server requests, c. both, causing desync issues, the single server that the forum database or the hive database is under extreme heavy stress causing very long loading times, or crapping out again. it's not up. yeah i still have my stuff but every server i tried to connect to results in a infinite loading screen

yeah i was doing perfectly fine the last 4~5 hours, till everyone on my server started to run in place. Then everyone tried to reconnect only to come to one of the following screens, Waiting for Host, This server is running the incorrect server side application, bad version server connection rejected, or stuck on limbo loading screen. Restarting the server did work for a good 5 minutes then it started to d/c as if it was doing rolling restarts on it's own.

put sandbags, tank traps, barb wire, bear traps around your house and cower in the corner with your rifle in hand.

I currently play in a group of 5~6. Each night we do a variety of stuff which includes supply runs, human/suvivor hunting, heli-crash hunting, and vehicle salvaging. my arsenal includes as50, m4a1SD, smoke grenades, and fortification items. i currently play as a scouter/spotter/scavenger. the other players in our small squad play as Yos- Sniper / spotter. as50, L85 Mike- Sniper / Scouter m16 acog, DMR ( squad leader ) chad- Scouter / Commando m16a2 m203, flare rounds, m4a1SD astrum - commando / medic / scouter - m4a1SD, M104 ( shotty ) smoke grenades, ( currently MIA) dav - sniper / coverfire - support . AS50, DMR, m9 sd we are a cautious scavenging/ /salvaging group. we mainly travel during the darkness. We tend to avoid driving any vehicles as it attracts too much attention player base.

use dayz commander to launch dayz under the settings tab, or launch arma2.exe. when you get to the menu screen it should be the first screen. click on "player profile" inside the profiles menu you should see your default name ( probably something windows has set for you ) there are 3~4 options. Delete New Edit Click on new to make a new profile. After you made a new profile click ok and search for your server. after you get into a server make sure you reconfig your controls/ and settings. as they are reset to default

is it a clan strike team?

if you paid by CC you could always go to your credit card company and file a dispute. but the acp went down today, as well as my server. it's been happening alot recently. i check my server in the morning it's up, i come to work and check on it again it's down. like wtf cant even keep the server going for more than 24 hours without having acp/server going down.

How long you have been playing 2 months How often do you play alot Why you have chosen that lifestyle I play as a scouter / scavenger. I don't like to pvp and will try to avoid it if possible, but if a person becomes a threat, i will go out of my way just to track and hunt you down. What drives you to play like that loot and teamplay ( run with a group of 5~6) A normal session in DayZ for you Spawn, check base's inventory, load up on inventory, move out, gun some zombies, bring back supplies. kill random person ( cause he started to shoot at you. ) Has this game affected aspects of your real life No. What made you choose DayZ Family Recommended it. Why you play DayZ To kill time. How you feel the team has done with the game Great, although game could use a better anti cheat system. ( gtfo battleye) The impact of Hackers/ scripters Negative impact. Although not affecting me as much only when i join other servers, i mainly and only play exclusively on my server now. If you have stopped playing or thinking of stopping, why hmm.. Guildwars2. Will you be buying the stand a lone game Depends on my mood and other factors. How good is the new standalone anticheat ( if it's battleye, i'm gonna have to think about it ) Number of maps for the game, as well as the size of the map

a good person is a dead person. unless you know someone, it's shoot or be shot

M4A3 SD 14 SD clips 8 Bandages 5 food 5 water bottles 2 Epipen 2 Morphine 2 Painkillers 2 blood pag tools 4 barb wire 3 sandbag 2 tank traps

Use your sight and sound indicators to move into towns. a couple things you should know with the aggro ranges. Avoid running on the pavement, if you're running through town try to run on the grassy areas ( it dampens sound a bit ). but you already have there are 3 movement modes, stand up, crouch, and prone. the standup mode will obviously draw the most attention, crouch mode will lessen your chance of being seen. I'm not sure if you're used to running during the daytime ( aggro ranges increases by a couple folds, or the night time where sight is not much of a issue.

just grab a rcon program like arma2 rcon gui, dart, and connect to the server and just outright get rid of him without logging into the server

unfortunately you wont find it via logs, if you are with vilayer, they have a option in the acp panel called web console, this feature is a real time log / inventory viewer but the text scrolls really fast, but you are able to see who has what in their inventory in real time. i am not on my server right now, but there is one person and the real time console looks like this for inventory

the camp in my picture is not a script, i built it on the northern edge of the map, i tried packing everything and removing it, but everytime a restart fires off , it just all came back

does it look like this?

There's no real incentive aside from playing /testing the mod on a server that gives you a stable connection where the server is not kicking you for high ping everytime you join. You're doing the community a favor by providing a testing ground for the mod, You're providing the dev team data that is streamed to the hive for collection. But to some extent you still control the server is some way or another, although many things you cant really do, but your server is sorta your hunting ground for helicopters, since you control the ability to restart the server. As well as the time of the day your server wants it to be, like ie: remotely configuring your server to be a all night time server ( haha ).( you only need to make it so it starts at 8 pm server time and have it restart around 5 am server to make it night again).

there's no real way to completely remove them ( unless you dont restart your server that is, then it's possble ) , well there is one i know of, but most people probably wont approve of it, that is changing the name of your server the ( IE : countrycode , for instance your server is named US9999, you change it to US 9998) it will completely wipe out everything off the map including saved tents and vehicles. but changing the countrycode/server name back to what it was before will revert it back as if you didnt touch it. Also dont try to remove a wall / layer of fences,traps, barb wire, or sandbags that are tightly placed together, there was one instance where i tried to remove one, it look like someone shot me, ( even though i was the only one on the server ) like a car crash, you get hit with 10k damage, shocked, bone broken and bleeding after trying to remove a layer of traps.

Same thing happened here, saving on the vehicles only records it's position but not inventory host: vilayer arma2, 95883 dayz 1.7.2.5 we loaded up a 200 slot truck with med supplies before the 2 hour incoming restart, after we logged back in everything was gone. so it has to be recent where the stuff isnt saving, when the patch came out on the tenth it was still saving

having some issues with vehicle inventory, we loaded up the 200 slot truck with med supplies. saved it at our camp. the server restarted about 2 hours later. and everything in the truck is missing, we had people at the camp in and out without touching the truck.

if you're not seeing any vehicles, here's a test, set up a tent, save it. log out , restart the server, if you log back in and the tent is gone, rinse and repeat till you see the tent again, tents are similar to vehicles, if you see the tents when you log in, you will surely find vehicles.
