Anyone else...run out of things to do?
DarkwaveDomina replied to Hendrix27's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Set yourself challenges like playing at night, or playing on a server with settings outside your comfort zone (first person-only is one I am poor at). One day I plan to do the "medic" thing and see how that goes, but I'm not quite that bored yet. -
Hackers, and the state of the standalone game?
DarkwaveDomina replied to KetchupOnTheDog's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I actually lol'd at the description of that script, I've not encountered that one before. Only the Thunderdome. I did say though, in my last post that due to the sheer number of accounts assigned to this mod the number of players banned so far might just be falling short. It stands to reason with the figures involved. It does, however, go to show that it's being worked on, and I can appreciate BattlEye for that even if their product doesn't impress me any more than the crappy PunkBuster does, so far at least. -
Madness. Pure madness.

Please get a sense of humour, there's one of you in every Green Mountain thread.

Discuss: Your Spawning Strategy
DarkwaveDomina replied to Silodiloz's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
If I spawn anywhere near Kamenka I will just run straight north hitting all the deer stands and barns in a line before hitting the supermarket at Zeleno. If I spawn anywhere near Cherno or Elektro I will do the same but head on a north-west curve. This method has never failed to get me started. In fact, I was once killed at the Balota airfield and actually found the very guy who killed me hanging around Bor, and by this point I'd already found an AK Kobra in a deer stand. He fired on me first, but once I'd put him down I was ecstatic to find all my stuff again. Thanks guy, whoever you were, for delivering my shit back. -
Global Bans for legit players?

Sometimes companies have an uncanny ability to remind me of this bloke: -

Hackers, and the state of the standalone game?
DarkwaveDomina replied to KetchupOnTheDog's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I saw a screenshot of the BattlEye message that said "over 10,000 cheaters" have been banned. There's in excess of a million ArmA2 CD keys that have been used to play this mod, the front page of this very site says that over 173,000 unique users played this mod in the last 24 hours alone. So, like I said, BattlEye seems to be banning thousands of people. If you use your loaf, the fact there are still script kiddies in the game implies they didn't get all of them or that some of them are using scripts BattlEye is yet to squash. -

Now anyone who says they were unbanned is lying too? Posting in soon-to-be epic butthurt thread. -

Why is it that I read this and all I heard in my head was "Some people have been unbanned, but everyone is still a hacker!"? :rolleyes: -
Global Bans for legit players?
DarkwaveDomina replied to unhap's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yeah. Gods forbid players, who were mistakenly banned, go to a place where they might find other players who were mistakenly banned, to discuss how they were mistakenly banned. And gods forbid they not simply smile and nod when they're called skiddies and scum, and told they should never play again. Fuck these guys for being mistakenly banned and then having their accounts restored, fucking bastards. I can totally see why any sane person would be angry at people not enjoying being banned for no reason, and I can see why you'd then rage because they got unbanned again. -

DarkwaveDomina replied to unhap's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I had little doubt in my mind not all the bans could be script kiddies when I saw some respectable forum members saying they got banned, of course some people just get on their high horse right away and indulge in schadenfreude. If BattlEye is able to ban this many people in one go, and un-ban false positives with a relatively decent response time, then maybe we're seeing the beginning of the end of the script kiddie era. -

It's funny you post this on the day BattlEye seems to be banning thousands of people.- 217 replies

You guys seem to have gotten your bans reversed quite quickly, so I think I'll risk going on DayZ later. :D -
DayZ from Steam in a few brief and simple steps (No third party programs such as SixUpdater, all in all granting better experience)
DarkwaveDomina replied to zDevon's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
DayZ Commander does pretty much everything for you aside from installing the mod, I was just pointing out that for most people it's a better method than the one in the OP. :) -

DarkwaveDomina replied to unhap's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
How is this possible? Everyone who was banned is a filthy hacking skiddie! I read it in this thread!! :o -
This post sounds so much like me, it could've been written by my own hand. I wouldn't believe it if I wasn't reading it. Please, this hipster brony counter-culture is all about trying too hard not to be mainstream. :D

What weapons do you carry?
DarkwaveDomina replied to random_stuff's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I play in a team and I tend to drift between various M4 variants, the M14 AIM, and the DMR for my primary. I prefer to always use a G17 as my secondary but I almost never find one, so M1911. -

This is all well and good if you love manually updating, and not being able to filter proper server options like 3DP and CH. For everything else there's Mastercard DayZ Commander. -

I can smirk at Macs and nobody can stop me! :lol: -
Good idea, I think I'll have a go at doing it back... Or his mummy won't buy him one. :)

Just out of curiosity, why do you think it is a bad decision? In my country consumer protection laws (the Distance Selling Regulations) mean things like electronics bought online can be returned within 7 working days, with no questions asked. Surely, if I thought it was a bad decision and had buyer's remorse, I would have gotten a full refund.

Crucial M4 brofist. :beans:

Yeah getting to the lobby, and getting on to the world after "setup complete", are almost so fast you don't even see them. My problem is the bit between the lobby and "setup complete", where I often get stuck with the yellow "loading" text for 5 minutes.
