i play on US69 DAYZMAXED and people are always friendly to me. Iv been given cars and helicopters there before :o

It would be nice to see that not ALL zombies run at the same speed, some can walk, some jog, some run and a rare few sprint. This would create different levels of threats, forcing you to assess the situation and handling the faster ones, and/or outrunning the slower ones (This way players CANNOT run around a town looking for loot without ever running the risk of being attacked by zombies since players simply ALWAYS outrun zeds - this needs to change) -Walker: They stand around mostly and stumble around, slowly moving towards players (not much of a threat) -Joggers: They move a bit faster then walkers, forcing players to move (Still not a very big threat, but must be considered) -Runners: They move at the same speed a player will move, so as long as the player keeps running, the zed will never catch up, but when faced by a large number of zombies, these zeds must be handled first (Threatening players to either shoot or run) -Sprinters: They will outrun players, they are fast and cause fear, you must kill it to survive (High threat level) ******FOR NEW SPAWNS****** Since new spawns will not have any weapons, it would be best to keep the sprinting zombies higher north, so that it is not too cheap for unarmed players.

would be cool

i figure since now zombies will always be spawned, it will be harder to locate other players, but forcing them to shoot zombies rather then just outrun them, will put a good twist on the game.

I heard the was damage reductions, and i found on dayz wiki that the lee enfield is 1 hit kill: body or head. i Found another website saying the enfield does 12498 now that same website today is telling me it does 6722 http://dayzdb.com/database/lee-enfield Last night i one shot killed a guy all the way across the airfield (took a full clip to actualy land the shot) and since then i have been ignoring every gun i find, and sticking to the one hit kill enfield. But after looking up these dmg stats, and hearing about reduction... im thinking i should probably ditch the gun if they nerfed it... not only is it the "dinner bell" but if i go face to face with someone with an AK lets say, even if i get the first hit, im probably gonna get killed... shitty... Can anyone confirm if the dmg reduction is true? and since when?

Im using 6 updater/6 launcher and it will not auto update to 1.7.2.5, it has been able to auto update in the past, and i cannot find any ENGLISH videos on youtube explaining how to do this. Can anyone help me please?

alright ill look it up, thank you for reading

i'd like to meet up with you now and see if you have a ghillie, coyote, night vision, range finder and an atv... lol I got hacked so many times and lost all my stuff, until i found a bunch of gear, looked stranged, could have been a hacker, but i didnt care, it somewhat made up for all the time i lost gethering loot just to lose it to the hands of a hacker... Once something like this happens to you a few times, you will see what i mean, and only hypocrites are gonna rage at me for being honest. cheers.

Anyone have any information on the new DayZ map; Lingor island? Is it an official map for dayz? is it forbidden to play for any reason? if so, why? and why is it not being promoted in and around the DayZ community? Personnaly i think chernarus is too big, too much running involved, and high populated server have increased numbers of hackers. I heard Lingor island is smaller than chernarus, and i would really like to try it out. Comments anyone?

any reason why its frowned upon? and not encouraged to expand the game a bit more?

good idea, but every player you will see thats holding a pack, will disconnect the moment they hear a gun shot. or switch server to a very low populated one, run to his friend, then reconnect in the original server with peace of mind. Once again, its a good idea, but until the disconnect problems are fixed, i dont think it will be implemented.

i used one once, killed myself with it. my buddy tried throwing a few of them, never hit theyre targets, just go too damn far, have no idea where youre throwing it

yep, thats pretty much what half the people do in this game...

The exact same thing happened to me, a full clip of 1911 in a player standing still looting a body in cherno. My only conclusion was that shooting into his pack did not make contact with his body, can anyone confirm this? Can a pack stop pistol rounds?

Hey, im looking for some feedback here on what other people think about this: Food and water are too easy to find, and once u eat or drink once, your good for the next hour of game play, rendering it almost useless to raid cities for food. I think if your food and water level would be rated on 100 (100 being full) a can of beans should be 50/100, therefor you would need to eat 2 cans to be back at 100, instead of waiting for your icon to flash, eat once and be full again. Just seems like surival isnt much of an aspect anymore, its just running from town to town for guns and ammo. But making food harder to find, or not fill you up 100% of the time would make things alot more interesting. I have never been to the point i needed to raid a store so i dont starve to death or dehydrate. Only time it ever came close was the first time i played, i wasnt sure how the game worked, but once you have an understanding of how/where to get food and water, it become obsolete. -lower food/water spawn rate or -Decrease time between meals/drinks or -Make it so it takes more food/water to be ingested before being 100% What are your opinions on this?

i If you were actualy in the game, i dont think you would be a fatty after running hundreds of kilometers from town to town. Theres 355mL in a can of soda, the average grown human is reccomended to drink : "In the US, the reference daily intake (RDI) for water is 3.7 litres per day (L/day) for human males older than 18, and 2.7 L/day for human females older than 18[7] including water contained in food, beverages, and drinking water." source taken from: http://en.wikipedia..../Drinking_water So i dont think a couple pepsi's is going to do the drink if your entire day is filled with running from place to place.

happened to me with my mouse, just shut off all of a sudden, restarted the cpu and it worked, then ingame it stopped working again. So i got an old mouse, plugged it in and it worked. cpu's suck sometimes for random shit like this...yet we love them...or do we...? yes we do. sometimes.

sounds cool, but regular ruins the gameplay with peoples name plates showing up when their half wa across the map without ever seeing them, blowing your cover... and it makes it too easy to get sniped, because the sniper can too easily zero his rifle. if it switches to veteran id play it.

****************NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO HACKERS, SO MORE PEOPLE ARE ENCOURAGED TO DOWNLOAD HACKS****************** Well, iv been playing for two weeks, and today i got killed 3 times by hackers, spawning helicopter after helicopter, tracking us down everywhere we went. After that we changed server, and met up with a guy who took over 50 rounds from 6 of us, before single handedly killing 4 before we quit. After this we joined another server and found a jeep right off the start, excelent luck we thought, so we all got in the car, drove down a street and suddenly blew up, but two of us survived ( myself included) only to bandage the wounds, run to the tree line, and get shot in the air to our deaths. Now this sounds like a pretty shitty night, although we were having fun a the beggining, but now, after all this, my guy spawned UNDER the map, and now i cant move or do anything, and seeing that the respawn button is gone, no one can see me, and i cant die. WHAT THE FUCK This is a very good game, but i can no longer play it, i cant do shit now until a respawn button comes back. EVERYONE IS TIRED OF WORKING FOR HOURS, ONLY TO DIE BY A HACKER, THIS IS ENCOURAGING MORE AND MORE PEOPLE TO HACK, ITS RIDICULOUS, THIS GAME IS GOING TO DIE FAST, AND ITS ALREADY STARTING WITH ME. ****************NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO HACKERS, SO MORE PEOPLE ARE ENCOURAGED TO DOWNLOAD HACKS******************

Ok, so i have an idea and i already know trolls will probably be posting hate msg's, but here it is: Players should have the ability to customize the clothe they wear, choosing jeans, cargo pants, tshirts, sweat shirts, vest etc... OR just the colour of pants and shirts; the way it may work is as followed: place more clothe in loot, such as: red shirt, black jeans, purple hat, and the list goes on. two diffrent reasons for this: 1. It would be alot easier to identifie friends and foes. If colors get thrown in the game, it may very well create "unoffical" classes, for example: people who select bright orange colors choose to make them selves visible, there for they identifie themselves as friendly. Seeing a player in bright orange might incite other players to interact with him, trade, team up, ask for medical help etc... Players dressed in darker colors such as black, brown, green (if those colors are accepted, might be a good idea to eliminate them so camo is not obsolete and leave navy blue, beige, instead. somewhere along those lines) but yeah, if players wear colors that try to hide theyre identity, people might see it more as a threat, and be cautious around these types of players. Players in red would probably become medics etc... 2. Seeing that clans are a big deal in this game, im sure pretty sure highly organized clans would be willing to spend some money if the Dayz team decides to make like 3 diffrent types of shirts, they could maybe look like jerseys? They would have 3 diffrent colors on them, and the clan would get to choose which type of shit and the colors they want. Then when a clan would purchase, lets say 30 shirts, each shirt would have a number from 1 to 30, so players would have # on their backs, to identifie their clan, along with a # to identifie each individual aswell. (maybe one type of shirt would have the number on the back, the other on the arms only, and the third have none at all?) Not sure what the possibilities are on how a player would recieve the clans clothe, but one may be that the developpers send the client a scrpit, that the clan leader will recieve and enter in theyre server, and upon restart a tent will spawn somewhere (at a designated coordenate) and it will have 30 diffrent types of clothe. That COULD be one way of doing it... the other way would be for the stand alone version of the game to have it directly built in. But this would be a good idea to also add in hats, helmets and other head wear. If a player purchases his clan clothing, it would have to remain in his inventory even after he dies, only way he can change clothe is by discarding his uniform, or wearing other clothe instead. This might sound too complicated for an alpha version, but just having more clothe in the game would be nice... please? :)

nice thread, hadnt seen it, enjoy the beans1

lol, so much hate going on in my thread.... i love it :)

haha nice to know. See i posted a thread, people replied and i got the results i was looking for, dont know why people are bitching about another hacker thread... if theyre so annoyed by it, why click on mine? and why even bother replying, unless they are trolls themselves 0_o

Glad to know that people got banned for it, wasnt aware, but im still stuck in under the map and cant do shit.. lol...

my email to battle eye wont do shit, its the game developpers that need to do something about this, they have the pull, and its their game that is getting ruined by this, i paid money to play this game, how does it fall on my shoulders to fix it? If i knew it would be like this, i would of bought a case of 24 instead of getting my time raped by hackers off this game, but i guess i missed the fine print when i made the purchase.
