I have not yet traveled with your group, although I would like to eventually. Based on your account of your most recent venture, however, I would HIGHLY suggest that all of you A, Play on a server with nametags so you can quickly identify teammates, or B. Go into your player profile and choose something easily identifiable. You could all wear the giant aviator sunglasses, or you could all play as the black guy. Or you could all trade your valuables away for camo clothing so you are all in uniform. Something along those lines. EDIT - Oh yeah... assign roles based on equipment and experience. Have a veteran player with an L85? He is now your permanent lookout and spotter. Someone brought along an AS50? He should follow the group at a distance, or else go ahead of the group and stay in the trees. Just the little things make a big difference, like having everyone dismount from vehicles when you stop for gas and having them all looking outward, scanning the hills rather than watching the guy with the only jerry can run back and forth.

We hosted ours so we know we can jump on hackers and script kids straight away. We can constantly check our own logs and know if anything rotten is going on. On the public hive we would spend hours gathering vehicles and then they would all get teleported and blown up by a script kid. We would try and host events and an invisible person would kill us all. Not anymore. Someone comes onto our server and spawns vehicles...we delete them. Someone spawns weapons.....they get banned and the weapons turned into tin cans. Plus we can set up our own war! We have divided our group into Coke vs Pepsi and are having a blast. Coke vs Pepsi Wars DayZLingor - LU1 [REGULAR|3DP:ON|CH:ON][GMT+1] - Pirate Gaming Server #1 IP Address: 87.106.252.53 Check out my earlier post to see why we host privately http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/93235-coke-vs-pepsi-wars-dayzlingor-lu1-regular3dponchongmt1-pirate-gaming-server-1-ip-address-8710625253/ Look forward to seeing you in game. I will give you a free Coke (Im red team)

Chernarus is the daddy, however after playing hundreds of hours on it it can get a little stale. I will be looking forward to Chernarus Plus (Bigger, more functional buildings, new areas) I play Lingor and Takistan in equal measure, I like how Lingor has a jungle feel to it, the way you play this changes the dynamics of the Mod for me. Takistan is a snipers heaven, and due to the open expanse of the gaming area this can also allow you to play a certain way. Utes is just pointless, If you want a deathmatch map, you could just go and play Arma 2. For me Variety is what is it all about. But seriously some maps or modifications should not be made for DayZ and further more some of the above mentioned maps already changed by Hoster's are just pointless. You'll see which ones when they state they have X amount of Vehicles in the server. if you wanted to play a vehicle based game then your rendering the need for Zeds pointless, again you may as well play Arma 2. I think people who do this are trying to add an element to the Mod but are straying from the DayZ concept. But that is the hoster's choice I suppose. You pays your moneys.............

"WHAT!!! How dare someone else other than your clan have a vehicle on that server, what is the world coming to when a tiny group of players can't safely hoarde most the vehicles on the map, the very though that there is a player out there not wasting his entire life running from one vehicle spawn to another in a hopeless attempt to enjoy this game as it was meant to be played just boils my blood, the admins should ban people like the guy who took 1% of your vehicle hoarde. SHAME!!! "

I recently brought my 27 day mountain man down into civilization for the first time, and was promptly murdered by an unseen assailant. I then decided to try to make contact through side chat with other like minded regulars on this low pop server. I geared up with the basics and soon found myself near a construction site while people began searching for vehicles. Just as I am loading an engine, fuel tank, scarp, and glass into my inventory, one player proclaims that he has found a bus! I tell him that I have the parts, and we quickly meet up. Then we realize neither of us has tools! Again I reach out in chat, and another player says he has tools but would like a ride on the now "party bus". 2 more players on the server express interest in joining our group and we were 5. What to do? Raid NWA! Approaching from the South, just outside of Navoy Sobor when we are all instakilled by a hacker! We all respawn and sprint towards our remains to find.... the hacker left a box! I was able to get all of gear back, plus some extra items. Now we have EVERYTHING, and the bus is intact. What to do? Level buildings at NWA with satchel charges! ^^^Humming sound in audio. (Problem recently solved, likely a ground loop.) Friendlies DO exist!

Normal servers have 20-30 vehicles, so not that great of a difference also, its to give most players a chance to get a vehicle, instead of running around..

Why so many vehicles?

I'm sorry it may be already discussed in other topics , which are very hard to understand since everyone says something different . I've got a few questions about this host , and yes I already have got a server from them , and eventho everything seems to work as intended , even debug mode seem to function correctly after some reinstalls - still .. 1) is the amount of vehicles only 30 max ? And what can be done to increase it ? 2) is Ural spawns on any of the vilayer servers ? Or it's a global problem cause it just won't appear . 3) after reading the forums I've got into server logs and found the vehicle spawns , most of them (14) to be exact are bikes the others are kinda hard to find or just do not even spawn . We spent 2 days on searching so far and found only 3 cars and 2 choppers , seems like they are not spawned at all . I would love answers from people that host on vilayer as well , but don't mind any help willing people to make an input on this . Thanks a lot in advance !

Server logs show the following error and the BAF OFFROAD do not spawn on my 1.7.2.4 server 11:50:32 Cannot create entity with abstract type BAF_Offroad_W (scope = private?) 11:50:32 Cannot create non-ai vehicle BAF_Offroad_W, player told me there is no baf offroad on the server for about 2 weeks, so i checked the vehicles and id's. there is a vehicle id safed/open for it but no spawn. can i do something to fix it or is it a hive issue whatever bug?

The watershed's not quite right, yeah, but the idea of more water on the map is a good one. Lingor's got a lot of waterways, and bridges, and it's a good consideration for vehicles and infantry alike. I'm in favor of that. Yes to spawn points. I've spawned in Berez on some private hives, and it's nice. Plenty of loot, meds, markets, a good place to start. Train: No, thanks. Absurd to think we'd be able to get a freaking locomotive up and running, it's impossible to protect it and it wouldn't offer much. Inland city: I don't care much for urban settings, and the inland towns already offer all the loot and combat arenas we really want. Apart from tall buildings to snipe from and hospitals (there should be non-coastal places to get meds reliably), there's nothing to want from Stary/Novy that you can't get now. Even the sniping up there is good. Unique Sights: Yes, please. I'd like to see stuff like your picture shows, but have it work like helicopter crashes, so the bomb shelters and other structures won't always be in the same place, and it'll be neat to stumble upon them in the woods or wherever, like finding a crash site in a field. Tracking: Some way to figure out that someone's been by, and where they went, would definitely be awesome. Blood trails could help for sure, especially considering the gushing fountain of blood that survivors bleed in DayZ. You do leave footprints on pavement, I think, but they don't last long.

Hello, and friend and me have been playing together for a while now and have pretty good gear [Ghille, Fals, M4A1 Silenced, AS50s]. But we are kind of bored, SO we have decided to set up a new clan! We are hoping to find a home server and create a campsite and get some vehicles. We have a steam group and skype and we chat regularly. To join you only need to fit these criteria: 1. Under 18 years old 2. Have skype 3. Play at least once every 2 days 4. Live in Australia 5. Have some experience in Dayz 6. Are not to serious If you are interested in joining please message me on steam Steam id: Deadliez Oh and for those interested me and my friend are both 15. :beans: Oh and no bandits please ffs :facepalm:

You can join our Server/Teamspeak 3 if you would like? We aren't a clan, just a few friends playing/talking and well hunting bandits. Atm our newest server is only a few days old and doesn't generate too much traffic so it's pretty safe. Your welcome anytime to join us, we will help you and give you vehicles or a ride if needed. Server is - MaterGamers.Clanservers.com or Search for US East Coast NY [Mature Gamers Please NO BS] **Side Chat** - [Admins Online] - TS53.gameservers.com:9270 our TS3 is Teamspeak 3 Server: ts53.gameservers.com:9270 We also have admins on during most hours so if there is a hacker just report them and well lol

So we found the Ural truck on the rooftop of the hotel in Cherno with the helo. We were able to land on the roof, get in the cab of the truck, and start the engine, but it needed tires. We destroyed it with the chopper machine guns, but it respawned back onto the roof of the hotel upon server restart. We decided to drive it off the roof. We collected all the parts needed and drove ramming speed off the side of the building. Unfortunately, the truck somehow floated up back to the rooftop and became high centered on the railing. My guess is a hacker placed the vehicle there as alot of other vehicles are missing on the map and server. Is there any way to get this thing down or have it respawn in its original location? Also, since so many vehicles are missing, is there a master reset? Server US1534

Hey all, im an experienced DayZ lone wolf player and now im looking for a partner to find vehicles make a camp with etc, i can play on day or night servers doesent matter to me.

.50 CAL snipers are anti-material weapons created with the intent of piercing through heavily armored or fortified vehicles and buildings. Not a survivor dressed in shit he found at a local clothing store. Why the AS50 and M107 were even put in DayZ to begin with is beyond me.

IGN: Rareform Age: 22 Play-style: Sniper/Assault Do you have a mic and steamspeak? Yes and yes. Will you be getting Day Z standalone? Of course. What you like to do in Day Z? I enjoy finding military grade gear as well as sniping bandits. I also enjoying teaming up with others to find/build vehicles.

IGN: Dzembo Age: 25 Play-style: Sniper, Assault, Do you have a mic and steamspeak? Mic Will you be getting Day Z standalone? Yes What you like to do in Day Z? at the moment with out a group of people I mainly survive and scavage, Have fixed a few vehicles and built up a small hidden camp. So far I've been playing Friendly and trying to help people but often got killed by give people the benifit so like today ...sneaking through town I see someone who just killed a zombie, with a m16 and has no clue im there and I say "Friendly ?" in chat and over voice and he starts to look around after 2-3 seconds when hes almost located me...Bang Dead! +1 m16 , instead of me getting killed and losing my stuff. Maybe he didn't have a mic or doesn't speak english but not my problem lol. The other day I found a 4 wheeler and went helicopter crash site scouting and found 1 got a m14 and dmr. I like to play the game to survive so if you don't answer me or look hostile your dead. I help out people when I can. Looking to find a group that we can scout the land togeather and go pvp every so often.

Why is it all about dick punching. Try to find his camp and drive there with the rest of your vehicles and tents.

yeah you can get the logo on a heli not in dayz anyway arma You can get it on a UAZ and Off Road nicely they appear other vehicles too like the bike bus etc. Have to say it's a pitty about it not being on a heli

New Password protected Private Vilayer Hive brought to you by clan BBF! Visit http://www.clanbbf.com/forms.php?id=20 to gain access to the BBF DayZ Community Regarding Banditry We've got no problems with banditry or just killing survivors. The ONLY restriction is that if you're going to kill someone, don't claim to be friendly just to get someone close and then kill them. If you're a bandit, either don't respond or be honest about it. This goes as an absolute for BBF members. Any BBF member that claims friendship and betrays it without a good reason will be punished. Even if you're a bandit, we encourage a minimum level of respect between players. There's no reason you can't kill people without being harassing. New spawns, if you die in Cherno or Electro, don't whine about it! Just respawn and think twice about going into those cities. http://www.clanbbf.c...ilies/smile.gif Regarding Communications On any channel you can NOT do any of the following: Be abusive or racist Recruit for another clan Use VOIP in side chat Spam You CAN feel free to use it normally. Regarding Hacking and Exploits No game modifications of any sort are allowed. Anyone caught running any sort of hack or cheat (no foliage, etc) including duping of items, will be banned. If you are caught USING a hacked in item that is not part of the DayZ mod (AS50 Thermal for example) you will be treated as if you were the hacker. If you find a hacker's cache or tents wit hacked goods, please inform us on the forums or in side chat and we will address it. We moved to this hive to get back to core DayZ without all the outrageous gear and hacked items and there will be ZERO tolerance. You ARE allowed to use custom player skins as allowed by the DayZ mod. The maximum size for a player skin is 1Mb. Playing on our server Remember, you are a guest. We're pretty laid back, but if you're an ass to us or our players you'll be treated as such. We love friendly competition. We do not tolerate intentional and targetted harassment. We have a growing number of non-clan players that we have a good and competitive relationship with, and we encourage that and welcome players to make this their home. I personally encourage anyone with issues to come to me or any of my officers if you have questions or issues. We also encourage players to apply for BBF clan membership. Membership does have its privileges. http://www.clanbbf.c...lies/tongue.gif Maps, etc As we are not on Rocket's hive but are instead on a private hive we have the ability to change maps. When we do change, everything is saved on the map so your tents and vehicles will still be there. Each map has its own save. Also, we rotate between all maps on a regular basis(Chernarus, Takistan, Lingor, Utes). We hope to see everyone soon!

Server based: Well if bunkers are saved to the server when people logg into the server they would be stationary and raid-able which brings us back to pan-dimensional warfare. Hive based: Where as hive saved bunkers, maybe only accessible while the client is online, the battle would stay more 1 dimensional since the loot is being tracked with the client. Given the amount of time and resources it would take to construct bunkers and vehicles it makes me curious of how saving will be implemented.

We have a hive that saves player data. By not having safe areas to save vehicles tents and equipment, coupled with the mechanic to easily move between world spaces the hive creates a Pan-dimensional battlefield. Will this dynamic be preserved in the standalone? Or will it be a more of a survival time sim where logging out means instant player death or your body can be killed and looted while sleeping in tents over night? I'd like to see some sort of client side, player designed, base structures, where you can safely build a custom bunker for your loot and vehicles that would save with the client like the player inventory does now. But I'm not sure what the consensus is for how the standalone will work with respect to hive saving. Will it be a game where you can't save anything so each time you start with nothing? Safe Client Side Bunkers ? Same as it is now just without hackers?

Server: US 3109 Date/time: September 15, 2012 sometime between 10:00pm - 11:00pm Arizona Mountain Time I was playing with two friends and we were heading to the factory at 114 078. As we were close to the entrance grenades and satchel charges started detonating, so we retreated west. While running away we were attacked by at least two other players, knocking me unconscious instantly. One of the attackers was spotted and killed by my friends quickly, the other was hit multiple times by MK 48 and AS 50 fire yet he was able to kill the three of us. I respawned in Elektrozavodsk and found most of the buildings in the center of the city had been reduced to rubble. On a hill at approximately 105 128 there were two buses, a van, a rolled truck, a tractor, and a destroyed helicopter. Some of the vehicles were loaded with tons of gear, such as a ghillie suit, weapons, medical supplies, car parts, and food. I took some of the gear and one of the buses and headed back to the hill where I was killed to retrieve my gear. During this time the server population changed from 8-10 to 4.

Until the tents are fixed, the vehicles are fixed and the hackers/script kiddies are dealt with there is no worth in this mod any more. It completely invalidates the premise of the game because there's no value to the persistant-world nature of the mod and devolves the whole affair into a short-lived deathmatch. Better off playing the Wasteland mod. It's not persistant, vehicles and weapons are far easier to come by. Fits with what DayZ currently offers in its ruined state. I want DayZ to work really badly, I love the idea of working hard to gain gear and get established in the world, but it's basically impossible so no point in playing :(

You can hop on with my gang. Our only policy is that you don't shoot without due cause. We got 2 camps setup with vehicles and weapons if u need em. Just add me in the link below.
