Okay so I've done goofed. I was sick of all the servers on which I had awesome loot being shut down so I thought 'I'm just gonna host my own one!' The first thing I did was download the files (obviously) and, after many many tutorials on how to gt it set up, I decided to run the program inside the folder. No sooner had I done this when my Arma 2 OA game froze, kicking me off. Now, everytime I try to open OA, it says I have no CD-Key and DayZ commander can't update to the lastest OA patch, saying that there is no current one. What do, guys?

It has worked now, thanks :D

Unfortunately, this hasn't worked :/

What a great server, went on last night with my cousin, we forgot that we'd logged out in Cherno so had a great surprise waiting for us. We made our way to thew church only to see it barbed wired up so we couldn't get in, I turn round and see a woman pop out and shoot at us with her AK74 Kobra, I shoot back just as my cousin moves in the way and shoot him, causing him to get knocked out. The foe proceeds to pump me full of lead as I run forward, moving last minute to the left to flank her. I get to her side and shoot her a couple times in the hip area, I think breaking her legs but she swivels quickly and shoots back, the server then has a small period of lag and as I'm running to flank again, my blood drops from 7000 to -3 and I die. Luckily, my cousin survived and managed to grap my stuff before meeting up with me so nothing much was lost, best encounter so far All in all, a great server with no lag and some good loot hanging around.

Just saw that peoplewere talking of their first kills on DayZ and decided I would like to share a few of mine. The time is around 6 a.m (GMT) and me and my cousin are deciding whether or not to go to bed after being on the game for a full, solid 6 hours. The server we frequent (LU203) is getting bright and we see that there are only 4 of us in the game (normally around 15/16) so we think 'What are the chances of meeting another player anywhere? We're up North so why not check out the NW airfield?'. Pulling out my compass, I head West, leaving my cousin trailing behind as, even when he's sprinting and I'm crouch-running, I am faster than he is. Armed with my trusty Winny (nicknamed Beth) and my cousin havind a CZ, we move through the forest eventually seeing a ruined castle on a hill. 'That's Devil's Castle!' I hear as my cousin reaches full-pelt towards the area. 'There's normally some good stuff there!' Having only played the game properly for about 2 days, I believe everything he tells me and follow him up the hill just as the notification pops up in the bottom left that Swarrrz was killed (it was something like that). We decide that that's one less out of the other 2 people on the server who we'll see up north. We begin to slow up as we reach the castle, not wanting to aggro the zombies, and crawl in between the towering walls. Then, we see him, it's a dead body sitting at the foot of the steps and suddenly, the mood changes. We're both now wide-awake, completely different to our previous laboured movements, and are searching high and low, ears pricked to the signs or sounds of any danger. 'I hear movement' my cousin says, a phrase I've heard so many times before and never payed any attention to. I don't believe him, that's a mistake. As I check the body, my cousin moves up the stairs, even I can't hear him now. The next thing I hear is huge banging of shots and the shreiking of disbelief coming from the other end of the mic. 'BRIAN is dead' is what pops up. Now, I'm all alone in a place I've never seen before with only Beth, an M1911 and a can of beanz to save me. I creep upstairs, watching the door, zoomed in and waiting for any sign of movement. As I get in the doorway, I stopped the player sitting to the left of the doormouth, looking at my dead cousin's body. I quickly turn and shoot. I miss, the wall next to him freeing some of the rubble as it crashes to the floor, suddenly he's aware of my presence and leaps off the stairs, shooting what seems to me like an assault rifle in my direction as I spray into the cloud of dust. I fall first, breaking my legs but I can see through the smoke that he's bleeding badly. The whole screen goes black and I see the words 'YOU ARE DEAD' on the screen, confirming that I have fallen, I have failed my cousin and will now lose Beth. But, as I sit back in my chair, a beacon of hope pops up in the bottom left 'Zegraska has died' I've done it! I got him! I couldn't believe I had killed somebody and was close to dancing in the middle of the room. In the end we found out he had a DMR after I made my way back, beating everyone there but connection troubles stopped me from picking it up and when I joined back, it was gone, along with mine and his bodies but my cousin's had glitched into the wall so I could get his stuff. Please tell me if you liked and I will write the story of my second kill (it's almost as good). -ILickHerTongue

Gotta say I love the Winchester, I've had all guns from AS50 to M4 CCO SD to a Crossbow and have enjoyed the Winchester more than the others, also using it to kill my first player, bad times. For the secondary I'm not too sure, only one I've used is the Makarov and only because I had no other gun but the G17 has impressed me in my cousin's hands so I'll say that.

Well all you've done is get a bump on this topic and keep it near the top, so thanks.

From the UK, normally play at night so needed a server so play a lot, joined this one, barely any lag (Some to be expected being from the UK) and quick load-up, see you have a clan in there which me and my cousin would like to join (I know I'm new to the forums but I've played DayZ for around a month and know most of the needed knowledge about the game.
