Unrustled jimmies

Hi, lead developer of 2017 here :) I can tell you we will actually be going into closed alpha pretty soon, and a public beta shouldn't be anything more than a few months away. That's not to say, that we won't have our "full" experience yet in a year; that could easily happen, but that's game development for you. I had a talk with Rocket at Gamescom, and asked him this, but he brought up a good point. In it's current state, Altis doesn't have enough content, in terms of cities, and things like that. You could make it work I guess, but you'd need quite a lot of additions/changes.

Please stop whining about the zombie AI. It's arma's issue, not DayZ. The community devs can only do so much. (remember that the mod is not made by rocket anymore, the community modders do it)

A new trailer is out for DayZ 2017 - featuring the new sleep and weight system that is coming soon!

I've been getting this error all the time now when trying to join a server with the latest beta: BattlEye initialization failed I've basicly tried everything: - Redownloading arma 2 & OA through steam - Installing BattlEye in arma 2/Battleye, arma 2 oa/BattlEye and arma 2oa/expansion/Battleye. - Putting the beclient.dll in C:\users\myname\appdata\local\arma 2 oa\battleye, but whenever i join a server it just deletes the file - Uninstalling battleye, reinstalling it - Running it as admin. - Removing registry keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Bohemia Interactive and Bohemia Interactive Studio before reinstalling NONE of these things worked. Can anyone help me out here? I'm kinda fed up with this.

We have 3 different servers running, one with 2017 with a stable playerbase of 20-30 in peak time :) You can join us at http://www.planet-dayz.com, the 2017 server is public and is well protected from hackers with our anti-hacks and very active admins (you can expect an admin online during peak hours and even on other hours as well). I'm one of the admins there and I'm also the developer of the server software of 2017, so you can expect a stable server and feel free to ask anything about the mod :)

Try putting the Addons folder of your Arma 2 installation in the Operation Arrowhead folder.

We've just changed a bunch on the servers.. Currently we have one HC Veteran Chernarus server running on a whitelist, come check it out on our forums! The OP will be updated shortly. http://www.planet-dayz.com

Our Celle server is up, with edited loottables! Please check our forums for more info. Also, we are planning ahead a lot of good stuff.. Coming soon! Stay tuned on our forums and play in-game to be the first to know :)

The Ka60 on Namalsk is great. I've been flying the Huey for a long time, and the Ka60 is refreshing. It's bigger and faster, and it has missiles on it! (yeah, missiles!)

Yes - for maps like Namalsk, it would be great if they could still be used in the Standalone - I have a slight suspicion though it won't, at least not without Rocket's approval of the map. I heard they locked down the engine so much, so I'm not sure.

Good news! - Celle map coming soon on our servers! - Restart script is working great now, applied to all servers :) Radiix did amazing work on it.

Video up of the rally! Came out very nice :) Also a video of blowing up a bunch of vehicles, but to see that video, head over to our Forums and look in the Campfire section!

That rally was awesome guys! Videos are on their way. You can find some videos by Grafsnow already on The Campfire section in the Pl@net DayZ forums.

Nice, we got the Refugee Camp on our second Chernarus server up now!

Mr Brown and lee, this might be a good image for you to relax on after I stole your Nightvision, GPS and Rangefinders <3 Jimmies P.S: Don't give beans to me. I won't eat them. Just give me your jimmies and I'll be good :)
