We were on a server and the whole server was kicked for script 90. Now we can't join any server as we get kicked for script restriction something or other. None of us hack and I'm sure everyone on the whole damn server isn't hacking. Hilariously battleye congratulated itself for how many hackers it had removed in the message?

I keep trying to use the 95883 version, I run it as administrator and it says it has installed successfully, but in game it is always red and I cannot join games using that version. So this limits me to a very small amount of servers. Anybody have a solution?

You were correct, I needed to move the contents of the beta folder to the main directory. My thanks sir. -

Is the "average life expectancy" artificially driven down?
callahan9119 posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Does people respawning effect it? I know many people just respawn until they get to a more desirable spot or are closer to friends. -

OK, it seems strangely low, I suck at this game but never die anywhere as quickly as half an hour. Seemed strange. -
How to increase friendlies while maintaining PvP
callahan9119 replied to LiptonTea's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Did you not see the second link I posted? Go help make a survivor city. There are far better deathmatch games than DayZ' date=' that's not what sandbox PvP is all about. It is about how what you thought you were going to do almost never pans out, and having completely random events shape your play. Figuring out who's in your corner of the world and what they're trying to do, and getting the advantage. [/quote'] It doesn't matter what you are doing, because EVERYONE ELSE is shooting on sight or looking for some trololos. You're avoiding or ignoring the point. This game is generally deathmatch/trolling. You can get all deep about the experience or whatever you're trying to do here, but it doesn't matter like I said, when some shithead is just gonna shoot you for laughs. There's no winning with this guy. Just quit this mod already. Sounds like you really don't like it that much. We're also tired of hearing you complain. I doubt you ever heard me complain before because in two months I've barely posted. This is what I mean, when people point out that it's deatmatch, cool bros like you tell them to quit the game..."tears" herp or other bullshit. Like the other cool bro above this post. Obvious trololo player. -

Find a group. Do something interesting. You can still find a group now via forums. Yea there should be a way to find groups in-game (tools to help players build survivor cities or whatever). No it wouldn't mean fewer bandits in-game. You'd die just as much if you're running ON roads yelling "ANY FRIENDLIES AROUND???" That does nothing to change what this mod has turned into. Deathmatch with zombies. Everyone knows what it is and the ones who like it that way deny it or go on their stupid fucking "tears" herp derp bullshit when people mention it. -

This is so damn funny to read Yeah' date=' it's totally not rewarding to have: More pairs of eyes watching their sectors More guns sending hell down range when shit gets ugly More backpacks being able to store large amounts of loot Totally not rewarding enough, might just add some artificial voodoo to it in order to encourage teamwork...sigh Have you never heard about Teamspeak or Skype? Or why is it that you kind of people always urge to cooperate with random strangers, like it'd be the ULTIMATE goal in DayZ [/quote'] Hey super smug dude, cool post. Too bad the only "artificial vodoo" that allows cooperation is 3rd party voip...So that generally requires associations already made outside the game. Not everyone has a super friends team on ventrillo who love to go trololo newbs and defenseless guys on the beach. The fact of life in this mod is 95% of people just shoot whoever they come across who isn't in their TS/vent. Griefers, trolls, and people who like to act like asshats have claimed this game for themselves and will shout down anybody who has a different opinion. They are loud and they have rocket's ear. It IS a deathmatch with zombies for the most part. A paradise for 15 year olds and neckbeards. Shoulda kept bandit skins and just improved the mechanic. -
Rocket: when will drinking etc when logging in be remedied?
callahan9119 posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
I know you said you planned on correcting this. I'd like to know how high it is on your priorities? It's a a huge hindrance to many people. Personally, if I want to play for an hour or so I won't even bother, I have to drink and eat from my meager supplies and if I log in again I must do the same the next time. It's Tamagotchi bullshit. I love the mod but there are so many things that are prohibitive to enjoying it. I don't mind it being "hard", but it's pretty fucking unreasonable as far as fundamentally realistic gameplay considerations go. You do good work, I hope this is high on your priorities list. -

He said he planned on fixing it, stop defending every idiotic thing in this mod. -

I have been, you add nothing. I have been waiting for him to be active after his E3 business. He is good about responding to us. I know it's Alpha, I'm asking the developer a question...you're not the developer. -
I unbound the global chat in options. Which is the direct chat to only talk to those who are near me?

How do you use direct voice chat?
callahan9119 replied to callahan9119's topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
Turns out I didn't need direct chat, I'm getting 4 fps on my insane laptop so that is the least of my problems. I'm super bummed, told my nephew how cool this game sounds and we log on and it's unplayable :( -
I am getting 4 fps on low setting. It's ridiculous. On regular arma 2 singleplayer I'm getting like 40`45 on high settings.

Is there enoush shit north that you can avoid elektro etc?
callahan9119 posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
is there enough supplies outside of those two cities to get good gear? I'd rather stay north but am worried we won't find good shit there? Can I avoid the douchebaggery in those cities and still get good gear? -

Thanks, I'm pretty newbish, I told my nephew about this and he is really into it, he bought the game, set up a vent server etc. I just want to be able to know where we should go. I heard the North is the safest. -

Bandit/Survivor Morphing to be removed
callahan9119 replied to rocket's topic in Mod Announcements & Info
It isn't arbitrary, or it shouldn't be if properly implemented. That's the thing. You should be represented as what you are and how you behave, it is a game and that is functionally important, so gameplay mechanics such as that should be implemented. I have no problem with me "looking" like a "good guy" because that's how I am, how I behave. And I'll leave it up to the other survivors to judge me and react accordingly to that. That's the thing in a nutshell. I don't mind that I'm a helpful or benevolent or kind being represented by my skin, because I go to the trouble to be altruistic, or in the worst case benevolently neutral. No problem, skin me as that. If you are evil, a criminal or just a psychopath, you should be represented as such. Things must be conveyed within the limitations of gameplay that we would decide through real human interaction. Those real thins cannot be represented realistically or functionally, so you need a gameplay mechanic to facilitate that. You have to consider gameplay, and not tenuous arguments about "realism", which are baseless in my opinion, given the limitations of the mod and it's foundation engine. Excellent point and very well put. I totally agree. Good should be portrayed as Good. and Evil portrayed as Evil, via a skin. As its the only game mechanic option available to us, that I can think of. It's the only thing that prevents the player base from devolving into psychopathic behavior for it's own sake. Fundamentally this is a game, and people know it's a game, so they act like they are playing a game. Arguments about realism fail to meet this fact in the formation of their logic. -
