    Soo, havent played the game in like 2-3 months. Ever since the news about DayZ going solo - maybe even abit earlier.

    So any new info on the stand alone and have there been any improvments to the mod? Maybe smoother interaction and animations? Less bugs? Less cheaters/hackers?

    Well then I'd like to have a European hacker and lag free server with fast loading times like you guys are describing. Any idea where I can find one? I don't see how I have all these issues and you guys don't.

    Although I did have the assumption that the EU servers are hosted by greedy little bastards that don't want to spend to much money. Like squeezing to many people on a server even though it cant handle them. Or renting "cheap" servers that have bad connections... I have noticed the US has some very good hosting services.

    Yea I get we are alpha testers, I'm used to working/playing in an Alpha environment. Just most of the issues I listed seem to come from core problems or a screwed up core. Things like path finding, hit detection and the basic client/server connection is something a engine normally provides - that's why I don't understand whats wrong and am wanting to discuss these issues with other people. And so far I have the impression that its a problem from my end considering no one else has issues like this? At least the connection/lag issues. Still hackers are a bitch.

    PS: Using the word fag has nothing to do with gays anymore. Its a normal curse word like cunt. Ever see that one south park episode?

    Oh god what did I start, are you guys serious? Its just a discussion thread, not a flame war. What is wrong with you people.

    This thread lol.

    Maybe you're a victim of your environment. I'm in the US and play on local severs to my area midwest servers.

    I don't have connection or lag or server issues. I can't agree with 90% of your post.

    So for me it's insanely easy to play a mod that's still heavily in development.

    Well almost every German server I've joined that isn't hosted by multiplay has a 10 min+ connection time. And I only join servers that have a ping of 30-40 or less. Maybe its just the European servers?

    And I'll say it again, I am aware that this is a alpha MOD. But the core game should be on a post release stage... And the most issues I described are related to core problems.

    The same reason there are so many people who think using the word "fag" as a casual pejorative is acceptable.

    The world is full of assholes is why. And you're one of them. Surprise!

    God you are a picky asshole. Fine how about we change the word fag to cunt. You cunt.

    And if you didn't notice, I'm not raging or flaming... just wondering what the communities issues and thoughts are on these things. I admit, some sections seem like rage, but they are not.

    I have managed to find a good home server with good ping, no hackers (yet) and an Admin that actually deals with hackers and cheaters properly.

    It sounds like many of your problems stem from having a crappy internet connection. Find a server with a good ping and take the time to find a good home server. I use UK servers where hacking seems less of a problem than in the US (for now).

    Nah I have the best civilian internet connection in germany with a 100mbit connection.

    And yea, I get this is a alpha but remember this is a mod based on a existing game - thats why I'm ok with the bug issues related to DayZ.

    Hello fellow DayZ gamers and forum lurkers.

    So I have been playing DayZ for about 2 weeks now and would actually just like to enjoy it, but this doesn't seem possible at this development state out of the following reasons.

    First off bugs. This is not the first time I have played a game in such a early development state and as a fellow game developer I am used to working around bugs. So this isn't much of an issue for me and even gives the game a certain appeal having to play around bugs.

    Lag issues and buggy gameplay.... Now here is a topic that pretty much destroyes the gameing experience. There are so many issues here, for example when you try to sneak around and zombies aggro from 500 meters away or they hear you very very well through walls - this makes the game very undependable and you can't trust on the mechanics, which brings me to the second issue. Trying to kill a zombie or a player. Unloading 3 clips into a zombie before he goes down is not how you should kill a zombie, and with players its sometimes even worse, you shoot at them and try to kill them before they kill you only to have never hit them. How is this even possible or was Arma 2 just as buggy? I don't really believe that... I know this is a alpha of a MOD - but these seem like core issues?

    The connection.... god this is a issue. I spent about 80% of the time looking for a proper server and connecting to it just to find out the admins abuse there powers or its full of hackers and I have to search a new server? For the first problem there, I've managed to pick out a couple hosting services that have a decent connection/logging in speed - but meh, then issues 1 and 2 kick back in - and hackers don't help. Just yesterday I was playing with a group of people and we decided to call this one server our "home". Started building a small camp and just have a dude appear out of no where with a golden AK and blast us and are tents away.

    This brings me to my last issue... servers! Why are there so many cunt admins and hackers all over the place destroying the gameing experience for everyone? Why is there nothing done against this? Why is the server/client model giving the client autoring privileges? P2P? Seriously? Without this model there wouldn't be any hacker problems, only admin problems to ruin your day or the normal client side hacker problems.

    So all that said, what do you guys think about these issues?

    I wasn't asking you

    and PS: you were 13 once.

    Yes, and guess what I was doing? Playing with pokemon cards, building kites with my dad, playing Zelda and noobing around in WoW classic beta as a rogue. Not playing mature fps games where you kill people. Thats why minors shouldn't play these kind of games, because you are to young to comprehend, process and reflect on what you are doing in a game.

    Anyway, I'm not going deeper into this discussion with someone whos balls just started growing hair.

    My first experience was that I spawned in a night server and didnt see a thing. Got scared because zombies were attacking me and started running like a retard with my flashlight on. Thought this was some kind of Amnesia experience - only to end with getting sniped down. Then a day later when playing on a day server I felt embaressed for acting like a pussy :P.

    Hi, title says it - I'm looking for a group or clan to play with on a regular basis.

    I live in Berlin, Germany and am 22 years old male - I speak english and german fluently, have a mic and flexible gaming times. I prefer GMT+0-3 (because I like playing at night when it is night - alltho I'm flexible on that) with 3rd-person servers that have a connection time under 3 min if possible.

    I'm looking for a semi-casual set of people to play with that work good in groups. I'm adaptable to millitary style gameplay because I used to play Counter Strike in a clan about 6-7 years ago. What I mean by semi-casual is that I want to play in a group, build a camp, get vehicles and do raids and stuff but in a relaxed and planned gaming enviornment without yelling at people just because they slightly did something wrong. I'm even good to go with a distribution of roles.

    So if anyone wants to play with or hire me - I'd be happy to commit myself to a group.

    Greets, Tingle.

    Im getting frustrated with the servers, I spend about 75% of the time looking for, joining or respawning on a server(which is equivalent to joining a server).

    So it would be awesome if someone could point me to where I want to be. Basically what I'd like is a server that has fast loading times (under 3 min if possible), around 48+ players on it regularly and located in the EU (GMT+0-3 that has night-time, not only day) with english speaking players. Additionally to that, I'm also looking for a group of semi-casual players, some that still have fun but are capable of playing in a group, I dont feel like "where are you now" every 5 min.

    So about myself, I live in Germany and am 22 years old (turning 23 this year) male. I am a game developer (mainly programmer) and don't have a fixed working schedule so my gaming times are flexible. I've been playing DayZ for about a week now and have gotten the hang of it pretty good. I have played CS a while back now and am capable of adapting to military style strategies in a group.

    So if there is some group kind enough to give me a new home/server I can play on, I'd realy appreciate it.
