    Hi. This has probably been suggested before. But I think it's too easy to exploit less populated servers to loot in peace. I do it all the time, especially on night time servers, and it takes just a few hours before I'm set with some of the best gear there is in DayZ. If the number of players online at any server was kept secret, there would allways be that uncertainty how safe you really are. In this case, less information would increase the paranoia. And I would love that. This would probably only be possible in the standalone edition of the game. Unless the core ArmA 2 engine is changed to prevent revealing the player list upon connecting/entering. If the server would only reveal the player list to clients with administrator rights, it could perhaps also help with security and hacking and all that.

    My random two day experience with DayZ

    Get DayZ Commander. It will help you keep ArmA 2 and DayZ up to date. If the yellow "Version" text in the upper right screen is yellow, DayZ Commander needs your approval to update.

    Some solutions could be: - Slot reservation which is valid for 5 minutes, and you reserve a slot from i.e Six Launcher before actually launching the game. If your friend can reserve slots aswell, you are good to go. - The server gives you the option to invite friends if there are sufficient slots available - The server list could only tell you if there is more or less than 5 or 10 free slots available, but no exact numbers of total slots available and how many are in use. For instance, the only options to display any information about slot usage would be these: - More than 10 slots open - Less than 10 slots open - Full And no information about total slot capacity.
