Well right now dayz' gameplay suffers from: - Too much walking around. Seriously, 90% of the time you're just pushing down the 'w' button to get from one place to the other. I don't have the time or patience for this. There need to be more vehicles or some kind of teleport system (rather not). - The zombies are no threat whatsoever. Just run into buildings or out of town, turn around and shoot them. They should be faster an kill you with 2-3 hits. - No teamplay. Unless you're in a clan there is no teamplay whatsoever. One should not be able to survive in a town without someone else covering one's ass. There should be zones where people can meet and form groups. - No long-term goals. Looting alone won't make me happy.

Well, thing about this is that it would render most cars inefficient. If you had to go hunt for hours and hours on end for a single jerry can it would be easier to simply walk. You cant make it too easy or everyone would have a car. In the end making cars more rare would be the way to go. That being said i do like the idea of siphoning gas off of inoperable vehicles.

Ok? I have 3k+ servers to play on? Oh and I'll leave this here http://www.battleye.com/support.html No one is banned for using non-hack programs (like Fraps, overlays, etc.), picking up or using hacked in-game items, weapons or vehicles, being on a server at the same time as a cheater, or other passive non-cheating activity. Therefore all requests mentioning these things as possible reasons for the global ban are ignored.

Attrition removes a ton of crap from the hive every day. Fix the tents and vehicles and things will be back to normal in 2 weeks.

Yeah scratch all this "they're ok" talk... Hunter is just a power hungry asshat, who thinks he can kick and ban people willy nilly for not doing exactly what he says, then when his friends dont follow the rules he just laughs it off... Banned a few members of our group for simply asking why he was allowing a Sniper to pick off new spawns and new players... But before this he kicked a member of our group for killing a fully armed guy... As i said, hes an asshole, he just wants the run of the whole map, when he sees someone else in a chopper he starts raging in the GAME CHAT and doesn't help them when they have genuine grievances . But when hes in charge of the choppers he allows his friends to kill on sight and do as they please... Another example, his friend SuspectMammal thought it good to invade our groups camp, steal the vehicles, and proceed to run over all the tents and players around the area. Which we're guessing slipped Hunters mind... If your in his group, hes fine with you, if not, he has no problems killing you, banning you etc. Got an awful attitude and speaks like a 5yr old in the GAME CHAT, also using racist terms and calling everybody in the server whatever he likes...

Basically make it so drivable vehicles are common, easy to find, maybe a bit tough to get running, but make fuel a resource you fight over, Say you pull up in your newly fixed sedan and you see a pickup pull up at the same time, so you have to negotiate over fuel or just start a fire fight, making it more of a main keep for vehicles instead of hoping they all aren't horded. To make said fuel harder to get, make Fuel tanks only have X amount of uses but they refill slowly over time, and make it possible to siphon fuel from cars you see on the road, so you could find a car you like, siphon half a tank worth of fuel then take it out and try to get a couple jerry cans with extra fuel. Also I would like to add, that you should be able to put your main rifle on your pack, and hold and item in each hand that won't take any room in your main inventory, so you could be holding 2 Jerry cans and have 4 more in your inventory while your bud with his gun covers you.

haha.. I was the one that killed you. I was about 100m from your base (not knowing it was there) and I was observing the closest city through my binoculars when I heard what sounded like a car door slamming. Then I saw the vw van driving around and I went prone and watched you move some vehicles around for a few minutes. I spent a good 5 minutes sneaking up through the evergreens, and when I crawled in and saw you laying prone with your gun. Sorry, I had no idea you were afk. I took the URAL and in a panic I ran over some tents on the way out. As soon as you came on global chat and said you were AFK, I hopped out of the URAL and marked its spot on the map so you could retrieve it. I tried to send you a direct message but couldn't figure it out.

if you have a jeep and heli why do you still need to go searching for cars? the heli alone does 22km in like 11 mins, not to mention you can spot all other vehicles from like 400 meters away like you would a flare on a pitchblack server.

Myself and 2 other friends where playing on US 2309. We found a Camp with several vehicles up north. I'm talking Several ATV's, Two Trucks, 2 of the big trucks, Helicopter, Jeep. They also had tons of guns, tents, rocket launchers. We took the Helicopter and where joyriding when we began to get shot at. We took damage to the rotter and stopped near the edge of the map to repair, as soon as we did the military truck appeared (spawned) out of thin air and 6 guys jumped out and began firing. My friends died as I got away with the Helicopter. They then began to Teleport to where my friends where spawning and killing them demanding the Helicopter back. I stayed above the ocean for a while so they could only spawn in water and not shoot me down. Anyway, this stuff has continued for over 3 hours. These are some of the things they where Hacking. Teleporting to Cars and People Teleporting cars away and teleporting to cars and getting in them to teleport away. At least 1 was invulnerable. The others where able to be killed but where just getting teleported back to camp and getting gear. At the time of them teleporting to are helicopter there where only 6 others on besides me and my two friends.

Want a server where the admin is very active, where the hackers are dealt with quickly and constantly moniterd, want a server that has fast response? Then Uk#101 is for you! 3D:On Crosshair:ON tags:OFF tracers:OFF Veteran GMT ONLINE NOW!, this server will be 24/7 (unless technical difficulties) 30 player cap! Public teamspeak! manchester1.teamspeak.net:14104 Active admin! Vehicles can be added and boosted cap if needed! -vehicles save (thier inv doesn't) and tents only save ONCE, but hey ho, not much you can do about a bug! Any more questions feel free to add me on skype! Lewis_Uk ---- my skype ##Also I have a group of friends who play on the server and looking to let a few more people join!##

I like it as it is. Though I do not oppose the option of dragging it as well. Both have their advantages. Hide I see as a catch all for burying it, camoing it, ect. It is limited by game functions but it does the trick. The body cannot be seen. I like the idea as well with using an entrenching tool to hide/unhide it as well. Makes it a more useful item to have on you. Drag would be a nice trap option. Perhaps drag a dead corpse with a nice gun to an area you wanna snipe, much like folks do with vehicles. They do need to make a better drag/carry animation though, as Day Z's is pretty busted atm.

My timezone ¨UTC +1¨. Time it happend 22:40. Me (azeriz) and my friend (sleepe) were playing on the server we have been playing on fore a week ore so (DE 1853). When suddenly a chopper apers over sleepes head we start wondering since we have found the chopper on this server a while ago and it is stuck under warter and will blow up if u enter it then respawn underwarter. i cheked the spot and it was still under warter. then sleepe found the hacked chopper with a dammaged engine next to it he finds a ¨SD MAKAROV¨ then he gets sniped. plus we have found their camp a while ago we stole their blue truck and blur van a cuple of times but they respawn at their camp we think it is their camp since they seem to use the two vehicles. end of story.

OH GOD HOW THIS SERVER IS TERRIBLE Do NOT join this server for the following reasons: (I played with these people, and believe it or not, this is what happens) -They dupe items CONSTANTLY, and keep tent cities hidden up north filled with gear. -They horde vehicles, and restart the server if you steal one so they can try to retrieve it before you can get back to it. -Will ban you if you kill too many of them. -They're known for shutting down the server if one of them gets killed so their death isn't registered to the hive -Constantly camp big cities with their infinite gear and snipe ANYONE. Even bambis with no gear. -Admins will use their tools to give their regulars the location of people they aren't associated with. For instance, if I was playing on the server and was in their Teamspeak, the admins would sometimes tell me if other players were nearby. --- There is a lot of other things that they do that makes this server really illegitimate. Please avoid it at all costs if you value a fair game. They're known for being really inconsistent and shutting off the server for long periods of time because of "hacking." Thats right, the admins get tired of doing their job? So long to your server.The admins are really unfriendly and think they know everything. When they shutdown the server for a couple of months, they banned me from the TS and dropped contact with me on steam to avoid criticism for shutting it down. No integrity whatsoever. I don't have proof for any of this, but if you do some independent research on these forums, you'll find plenty of complains for US 866. Happy hunting, -D.Wright (Slazors) YES, I PREVIOUSLY ENDORSED THIS SERVER; ALL THE 'GOOD' THINGS ABOUT IT CAME AT A PRICE. THE ADMINS ARE CHEATERS, FRAUDS, AND DO NOT HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR A FAIR GAME. IF YOU WANT TO HAVE ANY CHANCE AT SURVIVAL, DO NOT JOIN THIS SERVER. THE ADMINS WILL USE WHATEVER MEANS THEY CAN TO GIVE YOU A DISADVANTAGE.

Ok so, I've repaired the chopper on my server twice now, And after a restart it automatically re-appears on the spawn point. After EVERY restart it appears back there fully damaged except hull. I know there is currently issues with vehicles/tents with the vehicles not saving inventory and tents have the same gear in them again upon restart. But vehicles on my server still save where ever left. Except for the chopper... Does it hate me? It ain't easy getting it fully repaired fuel and hidden at camp so our clan can use it the next night, Especially when I do it alone at 4 in the morning. Can anyone offer a reason as to why it keeps returning to the spawn point? Today's effort i repaired it (I was on the island with rotor/engine/windowsx9 in my backpack ready to go) So I logged in there it was. Repaired engine then rotor, Then I did all the windows. I jumped in too make sure it needed 4 scrap metal, But magically after doing the windows everything was in the green (It was all red but hull before putting windows on) I thought this was strange. Anyway i went back to elektro as i still needed fuel found 3 jerrys whacked em in flew to three valleys then spent 15 mins filling the chopped (Takes for ever by your self :\) Now half way thru filling the chopped i checked the time, And noticed my server was about to restart (6am my time) So i stopped filling it, I got in it, Hovered it in the air for a min then landed, I ever used the scroll/save (Which I know only works for the inventory but I did anyway) I then sat back and watched it as others where on server. After the restart which went as usual no hiccups, I logged in and chopper is gone, Back to island damaged :( WHY??? tl;dr Chopper wont save after serve restart, Why?

Had the same issue on US 2013 These guys are the biggest group of hypocrites in the game. I found their camp way out east in the factory area just south of berizino. There were vehicles everywhere the whole main warehouse was sand bagged and wired off so you couldn't get in so I ghosted to another server to get in. They have like 20 or so tents inside the building full of everything from satchel charges to as50 TWS. I log in the next day and they're in the camp I can hear them shooting zombies and almost immediately after logging in [MK] Echo comes running right to me where I'm sitting under the stairwell, starts shooting at me so I shoot back and win, quickly bandage and down the 2 steaks I have in my pack to get some blood back. I can hear more foot steps so I just point at the door, next thing that comes in gets shot. [MK] Ghillie comes around the corner so I fill him up before he even has a chance to shoot. Then another guy is moving around outside the door and types in chat, "good job hacker, you're definitely getting banned" I can't remember his name. Why, because a bunch of hackers just got pwnd in the face by someone playing legit? Only hackers can get that many sand bags wire fencing kits and tank trap along with satchel charges every tool 10x and 40 ghillie suits. Ever since that night the server has been locked.

The server has been updated today to contain 70 additional vehicle spawn locations including some vehicles that were not on the server at all. For example the VWGolf or Military Offroad. I manually created each vehicle spawn so they are not all clumped together. The server is currently down. A upgrade to the software I was using caused zombies to stop spawning. There isn't much on this in the server community, but I will have this resolved as soon as possible and even in the event I need to reinstall I have a backup of everyones characters and vehicles.

I have started to play on a private hive myself, and I enjoy it much more than the public hive so far. It has good and active admins, vehicles out of bounds are automatically deleted, it is bannable to combat log or dupe and it has many regulars (there's often ~40 players on it). When there's cheaters causing problems on the server, they are usually quickly dealt with and the server rolled back to restore everyone's lost progress. It is like playing DayZ the way it was meant to be played. Not all about duping the shit out of high-end gear, heading to a hotspot to camp with an AS50 and ALT+F4 the second you hear a shot from a Makarov or a footstep, which is basically what DayZ on the public hive is all about at the moment.

There is a fix coming out to fix the broken tents and vehicles. This will come at the same time that Vilayer offers DayZ a new server to run the new hive on. There is no guaranteed time frame yet, other than soon, but this is what I heard straight from Vilayer who is obviously in cahoots with Rocket & DayZ as well as being the largest dayz hoster out there by percentage of servers. We should see less desync, and this fix. Hopefully at the same time, Rocket takes out the military soldiers creating the glitch and we have a "Stable release" at least until standalone. To me, that would be perfect. The reason taking out the dead soldiers is so important to me, is that I read a thread on reddit where rocket states the graphical bugs are a problem that's residing deep within the arma 2 engine that came about with the 1.62 arma patch, and that it's been very frustrating to fix with what he has access to now. This is why he thought he had it fixed but realized he only temporarily fixed the issue. He also said that since it's an engine problem which would require him to get to the core of the engine to correct, this may not be fixed entirely until standalone or a new arma patch(not beta) goes through, if it even does before we have a boxed version of DayZ.

Northern borders of the map almost always have vehicles. That's where clans hide them, a week ago I went raiding over terenwith my motorcycle and found a ural, mini can, and arc within 30 years of eachother. You want to find a motorcycle, it is the best vehicle in the game. FYI atvs suck because they flip so easily.

Numerous times I've heard clans bragging about how many vehicles they have on a server. The number of clans doing this is probably increasing cause I can't find a damn vehicle anywhere that I used to. I heard they are planning to have a massive amount of vehicles in the stand alone which would be a welcome change. Bracing myself for the onslaught of 'l2p' and 'stop complaining nub' I'm really not complaining here just wondering if anyone else has been finding a similar problem recently and if they've managed to get around it. (I am aware that some servers just haven't had vehicles spawned yet btw).

Yeah, good job "ambushing" us trying to get away from the site the hacker teleported all vehicles to. Must have taken great skill :D
