Thanks for the info on time changing. I look forward to updates on this feature. Still need these questions answered if you get a chance... I'm admin for an instanced 25slot server we just launched with your company and I'm having some problems... -Unable to figure out how to update to DayZ 1.7.1.1 -Unable to figure out how to update to Arma2 93825(config file says we're still on 93701) -I do have CP access but no RCON yet. Can I/Do I use the BE RCON? Several people in this thread told me to go to my server manager page and click update but there is no update. I can not find anywhere to update our beta and dayz versions. Thanks.

That's right. Reply to everything I type. uBaited 2.0<3

Also for inverse time' date=' what time does it get dark and what time does sun come out? My server is on pst, so if you could associate it with the server's local time that would be awesome, Thx danile [/quote'] If they are unable to change times on instanced servers without affecting other instanced servers on the same box, my group of friends may need to move our business to someone who can. Not trying to be a dick at all with this post, just saying this is an important feature that we need that other companies can apparently offer on an instanced server which is a better and more logical option than being forced to a more expensive dedicated box just to host our single 25slot server. P.S. Still waiting on replies from HFB on my above post.

Good. Let the butthurt flow through you.

Oh, people agree with you? That's the online equivalent of winning some sort of award such as a plaque or small trophy, amirite? In all seriousness I'm not bitching about bugs. Anything I could report has already been reported, not to mention this is alpha. Personally, I don't like the new startup kits mainly because of the lack of melee but also because apart from what some self-proclaimed "zombie pros" say, the majority of the dayz playerbase are everyday casual gamers that get turned off by nintendo-hard content. Bohemia only has Rocket on this project because one of three reasons... A. They may eventually charge for this mod(I honestly don't know if this is true or not, but worth mentioning). B. They are making bank selling copies of Arma 2 and will see this again with Arma 3. C. They may make DayZ in to a stand-alone game which will have the retail-game pricetag. Hell, it might even be all of the above. If any one of those options are true then guess what? You're a customer. You may only be testing the product right now but it is still a product and it = profits for a company and whether those profits are by proxy or not doesn't matter or change anything. Tired of seeing the failtrolls use the "herp derp dayz = free, dayz staff = unpaid" bullshit. I love how they actually believe Rocket isn't making any money working on this. With that said adding nintendo-hard content, from a business standpoint, is a stupid decision that caters to a minority of the playerbase when it should cater to the majority. Companies are in business for one reason only and that is to turn a profit, anyone that believes or says otherwise is a fool I also enjoy baiting trolls. <3

Other hosting companies have implemented the ability to change timezones on an instanced server, somehow bypassing them relying on the time of the physical box they installed are on. If other companies have done it I'm sure HFB can too.

Brb, need to get another container for all your tears. I'm starting to run out of countertop space. Anyone know if tears will keep if I store them in a deepfreezer? Might have to pull some of my venison out to make more room but that's not so bad as I was wanting to whip up some jalapeno sausage soon anyway.

So using the forum as intended means we should all act like retarded little preteens that learned their manners, arguing style, failtrolling tactics, and comebacks from playing Halo on the xbox? Nice. If that's the case, guess what your mom and I did last night. Every time someone brings up a bug or something they dislike when a patch comes out, you asshats crawl out from under your bridges to spew your ridiculous failtrolling. It happens on every forum on the internet. You're no different than the thousands upon thousands of other basement-dwelling losers on the net. I'm honestly surprised you haven't called me a CoD-kiddie yet. Keep up the nerdrage, kiddo. Your tears taste amazing.

I see no "updates" in the server's manage page. No buttons, tabs, anything. The phrase "update" isn't even found on the page.

Admin for an instanced 25slot server just launched with HFB and having some problems... -Unable to figure out how to update to DayZ 1.7.1.1(assuming you need to do this...if so, is there an ETA?) -Unable to figure out how to update to Arma2 93825(config file says we're still on 93701. Assuming you need to do this...if so, is there an ETA?) -Unable to figure out how to change our GMT+/- setting(Can I even do this on an instanced server with you guys? Other hosting companies have apparently figured out how to offer varying times on instanced servers on one single box meaning those instances aren't forced to use the box time.) -I do have CP access but no RCON yet. Do I use the BE RCON? Thanks.

Please leave so the rest of us can make it easier for Rocket to develop this game Helping rocket = being in the "slurpslurp, rocket's e-dick tastes great" club? Or trolling people that report problems and/or submit complaints which is the WHOLE FUCKING POINT OF AN ALPHA/BETA? Yeah, you sure are helping quite a bit from the comfort of your parents' basement, kiddo. So the way you "help" rocket is by threatening your gonna uninstall your game, and continue to cry about something a little challenging. Get the fuck off the forum. Who said I was uninstalling my game? L2read cupcake.

Either backpatch to 1.7.0 or don't play anymore. Myself and a ton of friends are staying at 1.7.0' date=' some are currently going back to 1.7.0, and a growing number are quitting unless the next patch reverts that stupid respawn gear bullshit that was in this patch...or melee is added. Lol @ taking away startup guns to add to "realism" when we can't even throw punches to defend ourselves from ZOMBIES that hit harder than a train even though their bodies should be in the late stages of decomposition which is not the same as being on PCP. What an awful decision for a game developer to make. [/quote'] It's in Alpha, now STFU you dumb fuck. Ah, there it is. The typical butthurt and nerdrage from a rocket-leg-humper. You're also new around the forum from the looks of it, poor lil fella.

Keeping my game @ 1.7.0 and leaving it there. Too many bugs and the new less-items-on-respawn is ridiculous(already addressed this in a really long post on the main patch thread). My entire gaming community and most of the users in our "partner" community feel the exact same way but I suppose that doesn't mean nearly as much as the opinions of the sausage-fingered "zombie apoc pros" that troll this forum on a daily basis. We'll just pretend 1.7.0 was the final update which is fine by me. Inb4 the usual "derpity durr, <3 u rocket. U juzt a c0d kiddie, QQmoar, brb needz m0ar mcdona1ds!!oneone."

Will this only be available those those renting a ded box or can those of us renting a single instanced server also request a GMT/timezone change? If we can, any ETA on this?

Any ETA on this? We want to be able to change our GMT setting...

Yep. Came across three wrecks today on a server. Lots of .mil zombies, no loot.

Not sure if these bugs have been mentioned or not... -Must relog to get the refill option for jerry can -Must relog to get the fuel vehicle option. -Removing wire option doesn't work every time. -When used, the removing wire option bugs and stay in your scroll wheel menu until you relog. -In some instances looking through your binocs while aimed level with the ground or at the ground can cause a huge drop in FPS. The last time this happened to me I was out in a clearing about 75 yards from a deer stand looking at the deer stand and wooded area behind it. When I'd aim the binocs straight ahead or at any sort of a downward angle my FPS would drop to below 15, but would jump up to 60+ when I aimed at an upward angle or at the sky.

I, as well as a large group of friends I play with, can confirm this problem. We have come across the sound effect of flies but no body several times AND maybe 8 times out of 10 a just-killed player's corpse will disappear almost immediately meaning you can't loot them. I have yet to see a single player corpse anywhere today, even in hot zones, which is a first for me.

I recently purchased Arma 2 combined ops from Amazon and used the SIX updater to download and install DayZ which worked fine up until today. The SIX updater updated me to 1.5.8.1 and no further. I tried checking for updates over and over, tried repairing over and over, no luck. It just wouldn't update to 1.5.8.2. I then tried the manual update using the awful file-index mirrors hosted by DayZ because apparently they are incapable of offering a stand-alone installer or proper update procedure for every release. "Just throw all those headaches on to the end-user, they won't mind!" Needless to say I couldn't figure out which files I needed to download or where they had to go since there's two addon folders in my @DayZ folder that was created by SIX. I then tried the fan-made freeware DayZ Install Tool. After figuring out on my own that I needed to input my non-steam file path in the first text field I was able to update successfully, or so it appeared. I opened SIX to launch DayZ and was prompted to update that so I did, it now runs in the form of a fancy new launcher. It says I'm still running 1.5.8.1 but it wouldn't even update past that so I chalked it up to a SIX issue. Launched the game, found a 1.5.8.2 server to play on for 7-8 minutes, died, disconnected/reconnected to respawn, capped at 10fps now for some reason. Figured I could just reboot the game and that might fix it. Relaunched SIX and noticed the big green "play" button is now a big orange "update" button. Clicked it and it "updated" slowly for about 10 minutes. It's now done and what's this I see? Still version 1.5.8.1 and still a big orange "update" button. Guess I can't use this launcher to launch DayZ anymore since my only option is to update which apparently downloads something but makes no difference that I can see. What a bunch of headaches and wasted time this all was. You can only use the "but it's alpha" excuse so many times, guys. Game seems to run fine now and a thanks goes out to the creator of that freeware DayZ Install Tool. Also launching from the combined ops shortcut with launch options set so I don't have to run software to run my mod. SIX launcher/updater still says 1.5.8.1.

I'm playing right now. I used the freeware tool to update and then added the launcher options to the Arma 2 Combined Ops shortcut. Everything seems to be working fine now.
