Well, the problem with mods is the dev can't modify the core game itself to twist it the way he needs it for mod needs. He can't change the game engine the way he needs it or it will affect the core game. Sometimes it is possible to change some of core mechanics in the code of mo, but it requires considerably more work then changing the core game itself. That is why going standalone gives more possibilities to the developer.

You do know you are supposed to test it. since it being an alpha and all that stuff?

So you spend 2 hours of your day studying and yet call others no-life kids? Sounds logical to me :)

Never had any problems with entering barracks on the NWAF. I do agree there are some problems with instant respawn, but I. personally, prefer to fight zeds and not DC anyway.

I will gladly "trade" my NVG and SVD for some of your stuff... We shall meet at night on one of my servers. There will be no snipers covering me... almost :)

If a guy is charging towards you with melee weapon - shoot his legs first, after that you will have time to reload if you still can't get his head

Well, I know that it is a feature of the game that one may lose his gear while swimming, but the guy in OP lost everything. Like watch and NW... this looks strange to me too. I was sure you may lose your back-pack and main weapon but not belt items. I would probably report it in bug reporting part of forums.

What I did is changing e.g. video memory from default to some value and back to default. Fixed it for me (kinda restarted the renderer)

You can... I dunno how to put it... Find a weapon in a barn before going into city. You are cheating anyway - be it DCing from players or from zombies - you cheat your way thru the game. I never DC, even if it means I will die to 1 zombie knocking me down to "shocked" stance from 11k blood. I prefer to die and learn my lesson then to feel like pussy afterwards.

Nobody is FORCING you to buy it. If you don't want to-playsomething else. And yeah, standalone is at least several month away right now. Rocket and his team will be investing their time in the development of standalone game, time=money. It is totally reasonable to expect it to not be free

It is really easy - try to shoot back from a nice position or just runthru some buildings and loose the agro.

OK, this is a really goodthread, esp. first 7-8 pages. I was _SURE_ it will be about Alt-f4-ers and had a nice surprise. Now, to the point: I don't feel too bad when I kill other players in game, but I prefer to play hunter lately. And I disagree with OP saying, that feelngs are not real. When I hunt another player I feel strong emotions, I feel and adrenaline rush. If I manage to get him - I feel really good, again I feel strong emotions. I do realize that it is a game, but I know that by taking someone life I take some time from their real life. That is the idea of sandbox. I can understand players feeling strong emotions about killing others too. That is an idea of this game for me, otherwise I will be playing other FPS...

LOL, yeah, cuz CoD has no crosshairs and no nametags :) Really, playing on servers with map showing you position, nametags and crosshairs is like kinder-garden :)

I would suggest you report it in an appropriate thread: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/forum/8-bug-reports/ or in community bug tracker here: https://dev-heaven.net/projects/dayz

And even crosshair should be disabled on most servers :)

I think Aram server went down at some poit so Six Udater has upgraded the DayZ version but not Arma 2 beta patch. Normally, ifsomeone is stuck on loading - it means they are running wrong arma version.

ok, I will repost from other thread: You need 1.7.2.4 with arma 95389 or newer. If you don't have this arma version you will not be able to join 1.7.2.4 servers.

I completely agree that for PvP it just stupid now... But I like it for killing Zeds.

Look for pinned post in this forum section...

Some people should not play this game, if those people don't know what can and can't admin do,they probably should not. Zed spawn does glitch sometimes, instead of thinkingthat it is a bug and filing it, some people just rage on forums...

Do You know "Adapt or die"rule? Your friend didn't adapt - he died. I agree that those changes to arma 2 resulted in some disbalance in DayZ. But Dayz should not be balanced, it should be harsh. Previously 1shooting zed with .45 was too easy, you could have aggroed a whole town and kill them one by one hitting their torso when noobs had to aim for the head for most efficient ammo use. Saying that, I hoe rocket will be able to rebalance weapons for DayZ, but maybe not to pre values but something inbetween.

They are working on login timers, esp when re-joining the same server, so it might be implemented in future.

Thanks you. it was funny, esp. second one :)

Make sure that your arma is up to date (95389) and 1.7.2.4. Pay attention to what server are you connecting, does it run the same Arma version. I'm using Dayz commander for connecting to servers after updating my game with SixLauncher. Works ok, I can join 1.7.2.4/95389 servers no problem.

And for the sake of old times let us not forget about delta force!
