Since its just DayZ that loads slow, my guess is terrible data/object management, not to mention the bottleneck of the hive every time you join a server... Think about this, ~150k people per day playing this game, each server constantly has to request and store their information to the "hive" MySQL database. Thus MILLIONS of SQL Queries are happening daily. Rocket does not get paid for this mod. The hive is probably stored at host gator for $4 a month. :D Either way, for the amount of traffic the hive gets Rocket would need a pretty good load balancer/servers in place to keep character creation requests from taking a long time. *Good* Servers don't come cheap. if he had 4 min-spec Virtualized linux servers and a load balancer from rackspace thats $60+ per month not including additional storage/bandwidth.... for min spec servers and a load balancer. Do the math, one guy isn't going to foot the bill to get rid of the hive's bottleneck unless he has a lot of extra cash or has investors of some sort. So yeah, the hive load time, combined with downloading all the random object locations etc from the server + your computers limitations = long loading times. if your computer isn't made from coconuts, you join a good low ping server, and the hive isn't too busy... bingo bango you're in like flynn

you need better axe murdering skills... you weren't even batting a 500 (baseball term for you suck)

lol, you got JACKED!

this is the best way to announce you are friendly, worked great for me! http://youtu.be/orMKJ71V0gQ

The Dancing Axe Man - Troller Extraordinaire! http://youtu.be/orMKJ71V0gQ Whether you live or die literally gets decided on the spot... BTW: Sorry for crap audio, was my first time playing my audio directly to mic input channel from my systems sound manager and the game causes it to echo. I will need to find a way around this.

lol yeah it annoyed the crap out of me, I was going to dub over it but decided it would make the video less authentic and just make me look like a murderer with no sense of humor... the echo kinda grew on me, its like a dance remix version that uses way too much reverb ;)

I would have hacked that dude up while he was passed out :P its not a murder if hes a bandit ;)

Next time there will be more bloodshed and hopefully more people willing to dance with me

lol

His friend took the offroad, they jacked 2 cars.... guess he lost in rock paper scissors lol

Epic Series! Edit: Subscribed

40 minutes for 2 episodes? I gaver your first vid like 2 min and stopped it, because 30 min is too long to watch just to be let down. if it was 5/10min I woulda watched.

Here you go http://lmgtfy.com/?q=install+lingor+island+for+DayZ

My old desktop is similar to yours... Intel Core 2 Duo CPU GeForce 8400 4GB Ram it runs it on low and lowest settings, but doesnt look good by any means

You could have cut 20 min out of that =/ I watched the whole vid thinking something else was gonna go down :(

I already have a few dedicated linux servers that I use for hosting databases and websites. does arma2/dayz have a linux server program I could run on one of my servers that isn't used very much? I been thinking about opening my own server but the server hosts out there charge stupid amounts for what it is you are getting and figured I could piggy back one of my existing servers.

Loaded into game, then it immediately pops me back to a loading screen and played this god awful music forever, I started recording it, a lil bit after I start recording a player gets kicked and the music stops and it lets me load in, but apparently I was killed :( http://youtu.be/cIBLl0k0Toc

I have no remorse, as this had me laughing for a while, I almost forgot I recorded it...

Enjoy http://youtu.be/GQOddVQUFLA

Lol, I am well aware of the deer stands and the benefits to brand new players and those that like to avoid conflict... Its no secret that a majority of people suicide at the bridges... the video was made as a joke, lighten up and enjoy life some...

Thanks! I took the gold in the London 2012 Olympics until they found morphine and epi-pen in my system =/

Blah, yeah WINE wont even work for me as I don't even bother running a GUI on my servers, just ssh into them and manage from the shell. Never tried using the Arma2 server so not sure if it even has/requires a GUI but I am assuming it does.

Definitely one of the best banditry compilations Ive seen! ... you just ruined my whole game play experience... LMFAO!

Whenever I spawned in "wilderness" I was a decent ways west of Kamenka... This tutorial may help you... http://youtu.be/GQOddVQUFLA
