Would be nice to know when someone didn't pay the rent.
sostronk replied to timmy aka silence's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Expect alot of it in the near future. There are plenty of public hive servers that have been empty for some time. Private hives are becoming proportionally more common. Almost half the servers in my list there were some time after I first started playing. Some of the admins who are active in game but dont want to pay for an empty server have been putting up a warning the server is going down, which is good of them. -
You won't lose your stuff when you go back to a public hive. People above me have not answered the question you are asking when they said yes.
-
People are leaving in droves. The private hive argument isn't solid. Just look a the list of private hives in my area. Almost all of them have 0-5 players in them and there are a couple with 30ish. The players who play in private hives frequently also play in public hives. Unless your a server owner or in a clan with a server then most people hop from one server to anther and often that will be public hives.

Can someone explain the debug killing?
sostronk replied to {N3RD2} HazardousJJ's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Seems to be a server thing. It happens to me on some servers. I play by adding servers to favorites, if there is something I don't like on them like this or hackers then I remove that server from my favorites list. -
Rocket is falsely advertising this game. I am going to kill all you PvE players and not loot your body because theres enough loot for all regardless.

Free weapons for the wrongly murdered
sostronk replied to Steak and Potatoes's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Im a bandit. I say we team up to confuse people. -
Only one question about tents. Clearly this guy knows more than all of us.

Ghillie suit and Camo for woman please
sostronk replied to [email protected]'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Women can have ghillie suits when they start asking me out on dates and paying for dinner. -
ATTENTION: Private hive server admins/owners.
sostronk replied to B0x73r's topic in Mod Servers & Private Hives
From my experience, the cleanest servers are the ones where the admin/s themselves hack. They don't want anyone else hacking and cutting in on their unfair advantage and since their hacks can easily detect other hackers they immediately ban them. -
Play Lingor if your super serious about getting your gear quicker there are a tad more military spawns on that map.
-
Animals are clearly hackers who are working with Zeds. How many times are you crouch walking or crawling though NWAF with Zeds all around and a fucking goat appears walking around casually like he owns the place.
-
Proportionally there are probably more. But theres less thunderdoming and script killing entire servers going on. More teleporting and ESP hacks.

Psychology of a Hacker vs Exploiter vs Greifer
sostronk replied to heliman (DayZ)'s topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
It really scares me to think that not only do you believe that, but that it may well be true. Are you serious? Do you really think that people would go around killing each other if you removed the police force and military? -
Felt good. Me and two buddies. Started out with just 1 DMR. A sniper on the same hill donated an AS50 and an M107 by trying to fight us. Not sure why he had both. 12 kills in, comms start coming out not to go to electro. In the end we had free reign and lock down on the city with nobody there for about an hour, just enough time to loot enough gear to fully repair our heli. Only 6 Jerry cans though. Must do that again some time.

How are servers going to operate in standalone?
sostronk posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I seriously hope its not renting like the current system. So many admins exploit the game way too much. -
There should be no high grade weapons in standalone
sostronk replied to TheMachine's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Yep the military is dead. They didn't fire a single shot the entire time the apocalypse started so there are full clips of ammunition everywhere. And you, a single survivor, manage to pumps out thousands of rounds before death. The military is so useless. -
How are servers going to operate in standalone?
sostronk replied to sostronk's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Pretty much. You destroy them, they roll back. No way around it. Too many powers. I shouldn't complain though. Can't wait to pay for an unfair advantage in the stand alone. -
There is a hack that can give players items or equip everyone in the server. It could have been that. Or it could have been a Private server. My money is on a hack.
-
If I want to play a game, I play Lingor. If I want to play a Zombie apocalypse survival simulator, I play Chernoraus. Most people who play Cherno though are looking to play a game so it kind of ruins the experience, so I mostly play Lingor.

sostronk replied to sostronk's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Thanks for the info. Even though it disappoints me :( Really hard to play on a server for long before it becomes apparent that the admins are abusing there powers. Although come to think of it, I was considering hosting a server myself. Maybe I can abuse my powers then. -
The DayZ difficulty - is it good as it is? (Poll)
sostronk replied to kingkrabbe.#bof's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I'm confused. I know why though. I don't know whether this game should be a survival simulator or a game. I think Rocket really wants a legit survival simulator. Truth is a large portion of the community don't have the patience for this. I think he is try to cater for both in the end. I think he just needs to go one way with it. Either its a survival simulator and really hard or its a game for the masses. -
This new camping tactic that might screw everyone over.
sostronk replied to smore98's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I tested this. Testing it screwed me over. A zombie broke my leg whilst I was testing it lol. Lucky for the morphine. -
Haha yeah my adrenaline is still high :P Was pretty fun. Never killed so many people so quickly before.
-
From what I have read it only stops global script spawning, which BattleEye is capable of doing now anyways. True but Im starting to find that the trade off is that Admins have significantly more power in the server, to the point where its outright cheating in itself.

What is the best loot from a chopper crash site you've gotten?
sostronk replied to Neelon's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Personally I find any chopper crash site with the box of 3x10 ammo clips to be the best. Most weapons are easy to come by. Ammo not always so easy, or at least its nice to know you have plenty in stock.
