I surely like the new one better. More distinctive, easier to spot.

Sure you weren't on a private hive server? If you were, then it is possible it is a server-sided script added by the admin to the mission.pbo file.

I've heard people having trouble editing some of the BattleEye files through your service. Is this true? I'm currently with SurvivalServers.com but could be looking to shift.

Vouch for these guys! Joined when I first saw this. Definitely the best non-whitelisted server I've been on so far. Suspect they'll whitelist it sometime later though. They are extremely friendly yet manage to keep a strict, clean and hardcore server. Great for serious players! :thumbsup: :beans: :beans: :beans:

Wow...these changes...awsome! I had the impression it was game over man. I'm a solo player and I support this to the max. Proper planning, risk vs reward, will be part of the game instead of just running in and being able to spam meat as a crutch to all the problems. Fantastic changes, got a link to the full patch notes so far?

Honnestly I hate this. Literally hate this. I know DayZ is a survival game more so than a shooter, but come on! This is really limiting what you can do. Like putting a square box around a shooter, removing all functions. :(

NVGs giving a huge advantage would be acceptable if they actually took some kind of skill to find or use but up until now the only "skill" they required was hopping to an empty server and recycling barracks loot until you got them. Now that they're on crash sites only it's simply a case of getting lucky, I've been playing DayZ on and off for about 6 months and I've only ever found ONE pair of NVGs that I can confirm were 100% legit because I didn't want to meta-game and recycle loot spawns.

I really don't understand all this drama. I wasn't expecting a complete and done game to be released in December. All I was expecting was a DayZ with bugs and 'missing' features but without the limitations of the Mod. It was supposed to follow the Minecraft Model and release a basic version that doesn't even promise to be completely stable all the time. You'd be supporting the development with your money and for that you get access to the current build. What was bad about the War Z was not that they 'sold' access to their so called 'alpha' and 'beta' but rather their shady tactics in promising things they could not deliver on, blatantly lying to everyone as well as thier overall bad behavior towards their community. By keeping silent about things, not posting any news over 'official' channels and keeping the community uninformed I fear Rocket is going down a dark path and instead of distancing himself from The War Z, I feel, he is acutally putting himself in the same boat. What he represented to me was a stand up guy who kept in touch with his community, being open about everything. It seems this is now all over and it looks like the industy has finally spread its corruption onto our 'hero'. Anyway TL;DR the best way is always to be honest and open about things, hiding and keeping silent leads down a dark path. My two cents.

What's going on here? Am I on hidden camera?? :o

To be honest, not really a feature I'd want in DayZ. Love it in other games (Like in Far Cry as you suggested) but it doesn't really fit in Dayz. Maybe I've just grown to comfortable with the surrent map setup.

I hate this. I had this happen to me and a friend once. We had to get the admin to change something in the database. Try that maybe.

Just got back from Gamescom. Must say, it was a great treat to finally meet the Rocket and get to ask him some questions. I asked him about tents and vehicles not saving gear and he said that its not really relevant as you can now store all your gear in Dogs; as well as ride them. Cant wait for new update :)

Thats fucking retarded. Isn't that already how a game works? You have to pay money.

I can vouch for this claim! He was tracking us across the map and finding us in the middleof a large forrest, instantly headshoting us twice. He is complete bullshit!
