Yeah servers have their own time. they can set them to whatever they want. Best to use DayZ Commander and then look for servers with day/night. It's not a guarantee, but its the best option for it.
-
It's an Alpha...a mod can be in Alpha as they have different stages of development also. Also, this mod wasn't made to sell copies of Arma 2, it was made so people that had Arma2 could play a zombie survival game. It just took off and got picked up by alot of people, giving it a life of it's own. YOU paid for a game to play a mod that was well known to be in it's early stages and buggy as hell.
-
Don't go around saying this unless you got proof lol
-
That's an Alpha for you, but I've never had to reinstall DayZ once in the past 2 or 3 weeks. You using anything like DayZ Commander? Keeps me updating and working fine.
-
Don't know mine, but it varies from server to server. Some are like a sticky note slideshow, others can be completely smooth with very few issues. I'm running an Nvidia Geforce GTX 560 Ti
-
Well there goes me testing out my NV goggles tonight lol
-
I was up north alot early on when playing DayZ, but I've been sticking to the coast more. Mostly just so I get more action. Did the survival thing, trying to find good loot, last as long as I can, it gets abit tedious and dull, so I've mostly just been attacking Cherno or Electro. Get some excitement that way.

I hate that stupid running dive to prone, it's so awful lol

Clan(?) Camp Discovered, Coords + Screenshots inside.

Way to be a douche lol -
Anyone notice that every single server has hackers?
Maxgor replied to big_t's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I've seen one hacker since playing DayZ. Sure, I'm not playing on the really full servers most of the time, but if your mad about hackers, you should do the same. -
Unless you want Arma 2, don't buy Arma 2 right now for DayZ. It's not seeing many improvements right now and best to just wait for the standalone since it's on the horizon and your gonna have to buy that anyways.

1st person only, waypoints, what more?
Maxgor replied to echosyp's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I don't care if a servers is regular or not. If the FPS aspect was better in this game, I'd stick with it, but right now, it's not right. A good majority of things are just poorly designed in this game really...No jumping over things, you have to click to climb things and open doors, I mean, how is that tactical or realistic? It serves no purpose, but I'm getting off topic here lol If you want an active server, you just need to keep yourself broader, unless you have a group/community all set to join in with those settings in mind. -
LOL...3rd is exploiting...That's good stuff. I tend to go with 3rd person most of the time. Knowing you can remove headbob is very nice though, cause it never felt right in the game. All the movement feels too extreme for what it would be. 3rd person makes long distance runs more comfortable and it helps when your trying to watch for zombies. I don't mind when it's forced, but I've only ever come across one server in the past few weeks that ever did that. If I can remove headbob, I wouldn't mind if I'm forced, but to me, the game plays better as a 3rd person, than it does first person, even if FPS is more realistic.

Because not everyone knows the inherent evils of bridges in DayZ...cause you know...a bridge should work like a bridge...not like it's possessed by the devil lol
-
Of course you'll have to buy DayZ Standalone when it releases. Lucky for you, it'll be cheaper if you buy it right away, like the Minecraft setup (At least I believe that is the path being taken).
-
Yeah if that's your video, get rid of the 20 second intro, you can drop that down to 5 seconds easily, but I do agree, that a bandit should be entertaining if they are gonna kill you.
-
Once me and a friend came across a stash pile of vehicles just outside of the Dam. They got the truck off, picked me up, we went back. They had the bus, I had the ATV. I come to the Dam, they say to go slow, cause the bridges are messed up, I go on at a very low speed, I bounce around, tip over. I tell my friend to maybe just tap the ATV, flip it over with the bus, they do so, the ATV is launched into the stratosphere, it is gone completely. I've never seen such a crazy reaction like this to a vehicle and bridges lol
-
Welp, since BattleEye has eaten it tonight, I guess no Day Z sniping spree is gonna happen like I planned lol
-
I'm curious. How many of you sneak through towns compared to sprinting?
Maxgor replied to VikingBerserker's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I generally do my best to avoid zombies. If I've just respawned, I run. I've started to find that I can begin to lose zombies, so I just run to places with good loot, hopefully losing the zombies on the way. Once I get a good collection of loot, some nice guns, that's when my trips are more careful. I generall slow move around or prone if I see zombies. I do my best then to draw as little attention to my self as possible. -
I tried to browse Green Mountain (Daylight, I know...). That zombie horde that spawns is such a pain in the ass. Accidentally died trying to get to the tower, cause I crawled around the entire fence, just to run face first into a squad of zombies as they were going around both sides of the fence :\ Only go to the tower if you got a big group lol
-
It's sad that people leave when server hits night
Maxgor replied to Rager (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Because the game is unrealistically freaking dark at nights. The light works but is abit obnoxious to use, and your nothing but fodder for those that have NVG. Yeah there's the benefit of zombies not seeing you as much, but when you can do the exact same thing during the day and actually see where your going, why ever play at night? I might play more at night if there was some realistic lighting at night, but right now, it's like running around with a bag over your head. -
Just went through and read this entire thread and it was fantastic. Such great and creepy stories. Don't know what is real and what is not and I think it only makes the game better. All I know is, if half of these things ever happened to me, pants would be soiled lol

Raiding big places. Usually very intense.

DON'T LET STEAM UPDATE OA!! Game breaking!
Maxgor replied to happylarry77's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Steam updating didn't bother my game at all. I could tell some were hurting though with how many were getting bad file errors trying to log into the server. -
Hacking out of control on NZ servers
Maxgor replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's not on EVERY server in the US, but I did just come across it for my first time after playing it a few days. This is being looked at, right? I will say these are inventive hacks, I mean, usually you just see some aimbotting or wall hacks, but getting teleported to the middle of an open field and shot to death? Never saw that one coming...and hope to never see it again. I like being able to keep my hard earned loot.
