I agree with the both of you and I as well called it in a post I made on reddit. And remember people, this is not an announcement! it is a not-announcement announcement :P Rocket staying classy.

@Preathor, Video games spawn a community, a community is built together with individuals and those individuals have personal lives. When people who do Let's Plays on YouTube and make a point of being that one person to watch for whatever game the fans would like to know more about the person behind the voice and gameplay. When Rocket created his mod and it became popular people wanted to know more about the developer. If anything your forgetting what a community is about. People talk about their personal lives on this forum and other people respond because we know what it means to have a community. I'm not saying you should join us and "suck up" to Rocket, but every single game/mod has a community and in cases like this a celebrity is born. WE want to hear from Rocket, not some guy that is going to put up simple posts on Twitter, Facebook w/e social media site saying "Good day in the developing department!" or "Hey it's raining here, LIKE THIS if it's raining where you are!". I like posts from the man himself who is the creator of this mod and community. Show some compassion for another human being. There are some cases where everything isn't going to be all professional and business like. Lastly, good to hear from you Rocket. Hope all adventures in the future are nothing more than climbing a pitcher's mound. I would think that you should keep specifics about development on the hush hush with this whole War Z thing. I think what the community would like to hear from you is that you got maybe some things done on the engine, or the character builds are coming well, fixed some major glitches that caused the characters to break their legs between a tree and a UAZ (had that happen to me yesterday on the mod, which then killed me haha). Just little updates like that will go a long way maybe something like every other week, just a paragraph or a short outline or hell even a few sentences. That is all that I hope for, but for the community I don't know if that is enough, but something is better than nothing! That's all... -Tom P.S. Sorry moderators, this has just really upset me to my core and I had to say something...just unbelievable...

Ok first off let me make a statement to get rid of the ignorant people: THIS IS NOT A POST FROM ME POO POOING BECAUSE SOME BANDIT KILLED ME! Phew now that that's done... I am wondering if anyone else has this thought: "DayZ can be more fulfilling than shooting the crap out of people for their gear". How can this be?! You ask...Well I think that DayZ can be more than just surviving, recreating the elements of society. This is why I got my Hero skin and why I continually attempt to make conversation and peace with other players. I think it'd be neat to see more people work together than fight each other. Just sayin' P.S. I suck at combat, so COMBAT ME BRO!!! I'll just run at you with arms wide open, wearing a pink shirt that says "Free hugs, one size fits all :)" Is there anyone else out there that just wants to recreate the social and teamwork aspect of life?

Virfortis - I hear EXACTLY where your coming from! That's why I was sick of console gaming (I don't get much of that crap on PC for some reason...), the crap that I'm talking about is all those users on 360/PS3 who just talk trash all day, but in real life wouldn't have the balls to do or say anything in person that they say in game. This is why I like DayZ mod - most of the people that I come into contact with shoot me and that's it, I'm dead - lesson learned. But after I try to offer them help and security and they pop me, I feel like the better person. That's where I was going with this post, Isn't there anyway we can come out of this fragnation and start rebuilding a civilization (like the freeside trading company)? Now I just read an article off of Reddit where Rocket said "I think my vision for where the players can go is, I want to see them building the world after the zombie apocalypse.", that's what I'm trying to do in the mod, just like how Rocket is using the mod as an experiment for the standalone game.

Lol win...this is a very good question, what say you bandits? I already know "That wimp of a survivor is going to get a gun and shoot me in the future." Please...

Yeah I understand the pain and agony with things not saving (I am playing the same game ;-) But I'm still going out and gathering supplies. Today I refilled all the water canteens, jerry cans and even found myself a can of mountain dew (the first one I've ever seen in game!!! After I've been playing for a few months now...) With my small group (3 other people and I), if they find survivors they'll ask me "Should I shoot them?!" (why they ask me I have no idea, I guess I'm the leader?), but I tell them to do what they want. I would like to see them shout out to people to see if they're friendly or not and give them a hand, but I know they'll most likely get shot at. There is also a group on my server that I've asked my guys to not get into contact with because I"d like to attempt to make friends with them (1st phase of initiating contact has begun, just gotta talk to them some more). I know where their base is about, but having powerful friends is always a good idea, instead of just shooting them, having them pissed at you and getting yourself killed by 'em later on lol. Oh and the one guy in my group also found an ATV today, so we went and got that sombitch repaired!

So right now I'm looking at 3 players in the game, one of them was kicked by Battleye for Script Restrction #61 and has rejoined...is this something I should report? Or just let Battleye do its thing?

So I'm attempting to access my server and was able to earlier today with a couple attempts, but now I keep getting kicked NO MATTER WHAT. I can't even access my own damn server!!!!! I need to do a server reset really bad because everything that was supposed to be saved is gone (thanks 1.7.2.5). Anyone know of a console command I can use with DaRT or some other way of restarting server? Other players are getting pissed off at me like normal. Did Battleye go too far and make their program super sensitive??

Sounds good. I've already Googled the script violation, didn't get anything, that's why I'm posting here. But yeah I'll email BE and see whats going on and then reply on here in case anyone else is having problems.

And it seems I got a M4a1 CCO SD in my inventory out of no where and my skin color is the zombie one (which isn't what I picked). What the hell is a hacker doing in a fuckin 1-3 avg. person server?! Dick...

Actually I just found out that a Script Restriction #61 can be caused from anyone trying to enter the Server Control area...lol Don't know if thats a good thing or a bad thing for my case.

I don't know where they are at the moment...I would shoot them, but right now I'm running reconaissance to split my group's base up.

ANTIBIOTICS, 'nuff said...

Thanks, I did a few quick searches, but couldn't find the answer myself. This helps a ton!

I know 1.7.2.5 is causing problems, but how exactly were you able to update? Six Updater isn't even showing yellow that I'm out of date (Still at 1.7.2.4). I'm attempting to download manually now from SE Mirror, but it's going to take 2 1/2 hours...So I'm curious as to how people have gotten updated. Thanks!

LMAO!!!! Because of that video, yes I wil try to log onto your server!!!

I just remembered because of your post that this is happening. Last thing that happened to me was a lost connection to a server after I had found a tractor...gosh damnit it!!!!!! This weekend is really trying my patience to get back into this mod...Maybe if I can tough it out it's meant to be.

Can someone just give a brief explanation as to why this is happening? It would help everyone out a lot I bet!

Same here, I was hoping to get back into DayZ mod today, but I keep getting stuck at Loading screen just like a few days ago when I previously tried...Some things are just not meant to be!

Nice video! Sorry you guys lost all of that, but at least you were able to entertain the community!

I'm going to attempt to get back into DayZ mod today, but all the scripting/hacking whatever you want to call it really killed it for me. My friends turned to the darkside because of it, they figured "Can't beat 'em? Join 'em!"...freakin' sucks cuz now I can't play with those jergoffs!! Oh also, it'd be nice to have private servers, hence an opportunity to stop hackers from ruining the game for people - I'd buy a server in a heartbeat if it could be marked private!! And frankly with the current state of the matter, private servers (PS) would be the only way to go - I'm pretty sure tons of people would buy PSs to actually be able to enjoy the game in peace. Though it would take out the PVP element and the uncertainty of being shot by someone (Correction: You always get shot by someone, my bad for making that incorrect statement haha!). I may be leading off the main topic of this post, but I think a couple other people in here have been having their little girl flaming wars, so at least I'm not that much off...rip me to shreds DayZ community :)
