How can I prevent connection issues from my end?
Stinglock replied to AllFoggedUp's topic in DayZ Mod Troubleshooting
There is really only two things you can do in this situation. 1) Resolve your internet connectivity problems. (If none exist, you are left with option two). 2) Find another server. The red chain appears when you have server connection problems, if it's not your internet with the problem then it's the server providing the connection. -
Drop bears exist, they are more frequent than bandits in elektro. They are watching.... Waiting....

Check the server version in the server browser, there's a field down the bottom right that shows what version the server is running. There's also a place that shows what version you're running I think.

Too many downsides playing night?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it happens like that currently. No change noticable.

This is how you survive in DayZ the "cool" way
Stinglock replied to Seaon09's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I was initially coming in here to bash on the title and the usage of the word cool and how it cool isn't, but after watching this video it's actually changed my mind completely. THIS IS TRULY THE COOL WAY TO SURVIVE. So glad you put the second one up too, nice work, great comms and great teamwork. I also have to say some nice/slight editing, you managed to skip most of the boring/stale parts and it actually flows like a nice story while still being lengthy. Looking forward to seeing more :) -

Stinglock replied to Evilsausage's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
People also like to make generalised assumptions based on their own personal playstyle. 57 Hours/ 3 during Daylight. You must not playing the same game I am as the majority of people I notice playing around me don't have NVGS either and also seem to enjoy it without them. -
This is getting really aggravating.

An alpha with bugs that ruin gameplay? Well I never! -

Mid-Combat Disconnection Hammer [URGENT]
Stinglock replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
I though only bandits shoot other people, and considering the fact your idea is triggered on the event of one player shooting another player and provides the advantage to the player who shoots first, it seems to benefit players who kill other players. Perhap if this was weighted on humanity it could benefit survivors. But right now it seems to only benefit bandit hunters and bandits. -

* [NEW] PROTIP: Use Global Chat/VOIP in populated areas
Stinglock replied to HarryPopHer's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It's a pro tip, have you tried it? No doubt you will want to test this out for yourself. I kind of had a feeling this might happen and if it's what I think it is you will definately want to see this for yourself. -
Mid-Combat Disconnection Hammer [URGENT]
Stinglock replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
This seems to be a great idea.... "To help bandits get more kills." And little else right? -
Help with multiple players in the same house

Create another person then if you have the capability to be two people at once. -
Dat Gameplay [Realistic features that don't sacrifice fun]
Stinglock replied to ElemenoP's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
Dayyymnn, some good suggestions up in here, and I was hoping your definition of fun was different to mine so I could have some laughs but no such luck :( That car accessibility could use some work, cars should really require A LOT of work as anyone with a working car would have taken it to gtfo. -
MUST READ hey? Seems like it might have something goo... wait, what's that..... 1. no, just no, even starting to think about this idea of a class and choosing what you start as/with is a horrible idea and not even worth thinking about. 2. remove friendly fire in areas? Are you serious? I think you are trying to put training wheels on this mod. Guns are dangerous, they do not autodetect friendlies and stop working in magical areas. 3. spawning by the coast makes it easy to find your bearings, good luck spawning inland 50-100 kms and being in the middle of nowhwere. 4. spawning on your friends? Yeah, no doubt we'd have bandits spawning on players if this was implemented. Another one of your ideas that seems to want to bring a bit more of those COD training wheels to Day Z. A more apt title for this thread is DONT READ after I read it.

Naming and Shaming "Tianity" and his stream

lowest settings mod is what you are after.

Here I was expecting some actual tips or pointers of how to search without attracting attention at night time, proper flare/chem light usage or something other than a one minute HOW TO max hdr and gamma tutorial. I think tutorials shouldn't be able to be summed up in one sentance. If you're going to do that you should try making a series of them and putting them all up when done. Regardless, 1/10 for making an effort.

Two threads created on two boards and you still can't find the troubleshooting one. What a great sense of direction you have, you will go far in this game. Connection failed error? I did a search of those boards I pointed you towards, searching is skill required for this game, I can see you are strong in this also. Incase you're a bit lost as to what I did, I ran a search query for ' connection failed '. I hope you're still following because these tips can be employed online in almost any forums and is a valuable skill to have. Now from these search results, I seems it's an installation problem (I also noticed you have just installed the game from your post in another thread, so I'm aussming you haven't even gotten into the game, and you are simply having problems first playing with a steam copy? Hard to tell really) But try providing some more information, that's something that only you can provide us with and will help us help you. is this a new installation? what version you have? steam/retail? What Install method did you use? TL : DR Nice searching and I'm guessing it's an installation problem try this site .

Food and water being used offline
Stinglock replied to Jeff (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Wow, this game thinks of everything! It's like there's all these little things like this that I find out about and it makes it so much better and everything makes alot more sense. I'm kinda suprised the majority of people here agree with the idea of removing this. It's not life threatening (unless you have no food/water on or near you) and doesn't seem as bad as everyone is making it out to be, you won't die (from what I've read here). -
Once I saw another player. I said hello to him and asked if he was friendly. Then he shot me for my fresh beans. TL : DR bandits love fresh beans
